Chapter 239 The Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character in a Post-Apocalyptic Sweet Romance Novel
"Roar"
When Jiang He opened her eyes, she was faced with an unforgettable scene.
A group of monsters, their bodies twisted, crawled in the shadows, emitting harsh, hoarse roars.
Jiang He was surprised to find that she could actually understand what they were shouting.
"Roar"
"I'm so hungry, where's the food?"
"Roar"
Where did the food go?
"Roar"
"I didn't even get a bite before it was all eaten."
Jiang He raised her hand and saw a tooth mark on it, with the rotting flesh around it hanging precariously.
A gust of wind blew by, and with a soft thud, the piece of rotten flesh finally fell off.
Yeah, it's just a piece of flesh falling off, I didn't feel anything, it didn't hurt or itch at all.
Very well, she's one of the monsters too.
Jiang He raised her stiff head and looked at the sun in the sky. Hmm, the sunlight made her feel uncomfortable. She felt like an ice cream, slowly melting away.
Two more small pieces of rotten flesh fell off the back of my hand.
Jiang He controlled her stiff body and slowly stood up.
There was a clothing store next door, which was empty. Jiang He twisted her body and wandered inside.
Stepping into the clothing store and away from the sunlight, Jiang He felt that she moved a little faster and was much more comfortable than when she was outside.
The rusty body, as if lubricated, is no longer so clunky.
This world is a post-apocalyptic sweet romance novel.
The story follows a male protagonist who gains powerful lightning-based abilities after the apocalypse, and a female protagonist with dual superpowers: spatial abilities and rare healing abilities. The two protagonists stay together through the apocalypse, going from fighting alone to forming a team of superpowered individuals, and finally becoming the rulers of the base.
For the original owner of this body, her experience was a classic case of being betrayed by both her boyfriend and best friend, ultimately ending up as cannon fodder who died young.
The male protagonist, Gu Xian, is the boyfriend of the original owner of Jiang He's body.
The female lead, Chi Mu, and the original owner of this body are best friends.
The two have known each other since childhood, and lived in the same place when they were young.
When the original owner of this body was in middle school, her family moved, and the two went to different schools, losing contact with each other.
But the two met again at university.
Because of their childhood friendship, the two quickly became good friends.
Later, when the original owner's family was in a car accident, Chi Mu stayed with them.
From then on, the two became best friends who could talk about anything.
Gu Xian was introduced to the original owner of this body by Chi Mu.
Gu Xian fell in love with the original owner of the body at first sight.
With Chi Mu's help, the original owner and Gu Xian's relationship progressed rapidly, and they became boyfriend and girlfriend within a month.
After the two established a relationship, the original owner treated her boyfriend like family and trusted him unconditionally.
He ate with Gu Xian and accompanied Gu Xian to class.
Because Gu Xian's family was not well-off, he often had to do part-time jobs.
Gu Xian worked part-time for a month just to buy a birthday present for the original owner of this body.
The original owner was very moved when she found out.
The original owner bought him clothes, a computer, and covered all of Gu Xian's expenses.
This allows Gu Xian to focus on her studies without worrying about living expenses.
After graduation, Gu Xian said he didn't want the original owner to suffer, so he didn't let the original owner go out to work and just stay at home.
The original owner could do whatever she wanted.
The task of supporting the family can be left to Gu Xian.
The house was rented by the original owner, and the original owner paid for the daily living expenses.
After working for two months, Gu Xian resigned.
He plans to start his own business.
Because working a regular job only provides a fixed salary.
Only by starting a business can I give myself a better life.
The original owner of this body took out money and gave it to Gu Xian to support his business venture.
Gu Xian said that the luckiest thing in his life was meeting the original owner of this body.
He will make the original owner happy for a lifetime.
Starting a business is very busy. Gu Xian leaves early and returns late every day, and often has to go out for social engagements. Sometimes he simply doesn't come home at night.
He wanted to work hard and strive for a bright future, to bring the original owner of this body the greatest happiness.
Gu Xian said he didn't have time to eat, so the original owner of this body would make him a love-filled bento box and deliver it to him rain or shine.
The original owner's phone was on standby 24 hours a day, and she would rush to Gu Xian's side whenever needed.
Unbeknownst to the original owner of this body, her boyfriend and her best friend had already been having an affair.
It was all for the money that the original owner had.
In their original plan, Gu Xian would marry the original owner of the body and swindle all the money from her.
Finally, he divorced the original owner of the body.
However, plans can't keep up with changes.
The end times have come.
After a red rain, the end times arrived.
Overnight, the world was filled with zombies, superhumans, and ordinary people who remained unchanged.
Being bitten or scratched by a zombie can also lead to infection and turning you into a zombie.
The day the apocalypse came was Chi Mu's birthday.
That day, Gu Xian and the original owner of the body celebrated Chi Mu's birthday at the original owner's house.
The original owner of this body got drunk and went to bed early.
Gu Xian and Chi Mu were making love right next to the original owner of this body.
The two left traces in various corners of the house.
The original owner of the body knew nothing about it.
The next day. The end times arrived.
Gu Xian and Chi Mu have fevers.
Chi Mu took care of the two of them wholeheartedly.
The outside world is also gradually falling into chaos.
Fortunately, the original owner had purchased a lot of ingredients to celebrate Chi Mu's birthday.
There's enough food and drink for the three of us for now.
Two days later, Gu Xian and Chi Mu's fevers subsided.
Gu Xian awakened lightning-type superpowers, while Chi Mu awakened healing superpowers.
I also understand that the end times have come.
With water and electricity out of service, money became worthless; only food was the most important thing.
For the sake of a pack of instant noodles, someone might push another person toward zombies.
The zombies outside are dangerous; they are mindless monsters.
They are not afraid of pain or injury; as long as they are not dead, they will continue to attack humans.
Even the weaker ordinary people cannot fight against zombies on their own.
Gu Xian's lightning-based superpower is very powerful; with a single skill, he can turn a zombie into a charred corpse.
They were running low on food at home and needed to go out to collect supplies.
Since neither Chi Mu nor the original owner of the body had any offensive capabilities, Gu Xian went out alone to collect supplies.
While collecting supplies outside, Gu Xian met some other survivors.
Because of Gu Xian's powerful lightning-based abilities, many survivors were willing to follow him.
Gu Xian also brought the other survivors home.
The original owner basically cooked for everyone and did logistical work every day.
The original owner of this body had no special abilities, so she couldn't share the burden with Gu Xian or go out with him to collect supplies, which made her feel very guilty.
We can only do more to provide logistical support, ensuring they eat and sleep well.
Gu Xian obtained some information from outside that safe bases had been established in some places, and called on survivors to go to the safe bases.
They've collected most of the food in the vicinity; to gather more supplies, they need to go to a more distant place.
Moreover, the number of zombies is increasing, and every time I go out, I face danger.
Here, one cannot sleep peacefully at night; someone needs to be on guard at night.
The safe base is guarded, so at least inside, you don't have to worry about zombies breaking in at any time.
Gu Xian organized the team and set off for the safe base.
