Chapter 3 : “No Need to Kick Me Out, I’ll Leave on My Own!”

Just as the standoff reached its peak.

The usually quiet Wang Yixue, who had been standing beside Shen Feiyan, suddenly spoke up!

“Li Yiming, you’re not acting like a man at all!”

“You’re Li Xiaoyao’s brother, and you’re infected with the zombie virus.”

“Can’t you be a bit more self-aware and stay away from Xiaoyao?!”

“Keeping her near you—isn’t that putting her in danger?!”

Her words made Li Yiming frown immediately.

He had been so distracted by Shen Feiyan that he almost forgot about this heavy-hitter!

Wang Yixue—Shen Feiyan’s main consort!

As a core member of Shen Feiyan’s harem, the two were truly cut from the same cloth.

If Shen Feiyan was the type to fake kindness and repay gratitude with betrayal…

Then Wang Yixue was the definition of a two-faced “saintly” hypocrite!

She was infamous for her selective compassion, often putting the protagonist team in danger because of her sudden moral outbursts!

The current zombie ambush the survivor squad was facing?

All thanks to Wang Yixue recklessly acting on impulse after hearing a baby cry!

Sure, having compassion for a baby sounds humane.

But let’s not forget.

Wang Yixue’s so-called kindness is completely selective!

Take right now, for instance:

She feels pity for a helpless baby, but shows zero sympathy for Li Yiming, her teammate?

He’s someone she’s lived and fought alongside every day!

Is a baby pitiable, but her comrade isn’t?

Not to mention—according to the original comic.

Li Yiming had saved this suicidal “saintly” hypocrite more than once!

If her compassion were fair and consistent.

Then maybe she’d actually deserve to be called a saint or an angel.

But Wang Yixue’s brand of “smart” kindness?

That’s textbook fake virtue-signaling!

Facing Wang Yixue’s high-and-mighty moral scolding.

Li Yiming let out a cold laugh and said slowly:

“Wang Yixue, did you forget how many times you owe me your life?”

“Let me think—haven’t I saved you at least five times?”

He started counting on his fingers.

Even the big moments he could recall off the top of his head—already more than five!

And the minor incidents?

Side stories?

Let’s not even go there!

Li Yiming’s sarcastic tone made Wang Yixue’s face turn all kinds of red and pale.

In her memory, Li Yiming was just a quiet pushover, the kind who never talked back no matter how much he was scolded.

Since when did this normally honest and dopey guy…

Turn into such a sharp-tongued savage?!

Just one sentence.

And Wang Yixue’s moral high ground came crashing down in pieces!

“I… t-those are two different things!”

She stammered, trying to defend herself, while unconsciously stepping back.

Her momentum—completely crushed by Li Yiming!

Seeing her so flustered and disgraced, Li Yiming let out a cold, mocking laugh.

Honestly, it was only because he had a relatively good temper!

If a more hot-headed reader had transmigrated into this world instead…

They might’ve risked instant death just to slap both of these scummy lovebirds across the face!

Just as Wang Yixue’s eyes were starting to tear up from being verbally destroyed by Li Yiming.

Shen Feiyan suddenly pulled her into his arms!

“Li Yiming, you’ve gone too far!”

“How could you say something so cruel to a woman?!”

Shen Feiyan glared coldly at Li Yiming, his eyes now full of murderous intent.

Li Yiming had just touched his reverse scale—the one thing he would never tolerate!

The dragon’s reverse scale—those who touch it shall die!

How dare someone insult Shen Feiyan’s woman?!

If Li Xiaoyao hadn’t been watching from nearby—

Shen Feiyan probably would’ve pulled out his gun and shot Li Yiming on the spot, Even though Li Yiming had once saved his life.

But to touch Shen Feiyan’s woman?

There would be no compromise!

Looking at Shen Feiyan’s over-the-top posturing, like he was performing a soap opera…

Li Yiming was utterly speechless.

Do people really think a protagonist like this is cool or badass?

To Li Yiming, Shen Feiyan’s behavior was peak cringe.

Someone stares at you wrong, and you want to kill them?

Your girlfriend gets into an argument, and you want to wipe out a whole team?

Isn’t that just full-on psychopathic behavior with a side of untreated hyperthyroidism?!

Now that Li Yiming had fully vented his rage, he had zero interest in continuing to engage with Shen Feiyan.

He calmly sat down, tending to his wounds, and said in an even tone:

“Shen Feiyan, we were once teammates.”

“You might not care about that, but I do.”

“So I’ll give you one chance.”

“Hand over that antivirus serum you’re hiding.”

“You and I go our separate ways—call it even, no debts left between us.”

His words were calm—But they made Shen Feiyan’s face twist with shock!

How does he know I have the antivirus serum?!

I never told anyone…

Even Wang Yixue, who had already become his official lover, didn’t know.

And as for Li Yiming, whom he had already decided to abandon?

Absolutely impossible!

That serum was a priceless treasure in this apocalypse—and he had gone to great lengths to hide it.

Yet now, Li Yiming had seen through it completely!

Cold sweat began to bead and slide down Shen Feiyan’s forehead.

“Antivirus serum? Feiyan, you have something like that?”

Before Shen Feiyan could figure out how to respond.

Wang Yixue, still in his arms, looked up at him, her face full of confusion.

And she wasn’t the only one.

The rest of the survivor team had also heard what Li Yiming said—and they rushed over immediately!

Their eyes were sharp and intense, staring at Shen Feiyan.

Their gazes were like blades, making Shen Feiyan feel incredibly uneasy.

“W-what nonsense are you talking about?!”

“Antivirus serum? Why would I have something like that?!”

Though Shen Feiyan was now dripping with sweat, he still tried to feign calm and play dumb.

But Li Yiming wasn’t having it.

He let out a cold laugh and slowly stood up.

“Oh? You sure you don’t have something like that on you?”

“Shen Feiyan, you really are a forgetful man for someone so important.”

“I’ll give you one more chance—take a moment and think carefully.”

“Are you absolutely sure you don’t have the antivirus serum on you?”

As Li Yiming spoke, he began walking toward Shen Feiyan step by step.

And it wasn’t just him.

The rest of the survivor team was also closing in on Shen Feiyan!

Thanks to Li Yiming’s helpful, kind-hearted reputation, most people in the group already had a very favorable impression of him.

Even without hard evidence at the moment, their instincts told them to trust Li Yiming!

Dozens of intense, expectant eyes locked onto Shen Feiyan.

“Shen Feiyan, is it true what Yiming said?”

“Did you really hide the antivirus serum?”

The group questioned him urgently.

After all, the antivirus serum was a rare cure for the zombie virus—possibly capable of saving countless lives!

And Shen Feiyan had selfishly kept it for himself?!

Under the crowd’s sharp, suspicious stares, Shen Feiyan turned angrily toward Li Yiming.

What’s wrong with this guy?!

Since when did honest, obedient Li Yiming grow a spine?!

In both the comic and this life, he was never supposed to act like this!

But there was no time to figure out what had changed.

If he didn’t smooth things over quickly.

The survivor team he’d worked so hard to build could fall apart in an instant!
