After an unknown amount of time, the alley finally fell silent again.
Listening to the man’s steady breathing, Bai Yang’s eyes were slightly unfocused. Why had she impulsively chosen to walk through this alley?
Unfortunately, no one could answer her question.
Bai Yang carefully moved the man’s arm off her body and tried to get up. However, she accidentally pulled at one of her injuries.
“Hiss! That bastard really has no sense of restraint. How could he even do something like that in a place like this?”
The slightest movement of her body inevitably reminded her of what had happened only moments ago, and her face instantly burned.
Touching her hot cheeks, Bai Yang did not need to think to know how red her face must be.
At that moment, she was incredibly grateful that everything had happened in the pitch-black darkness of the night.
“Hoo…”
Bai Yang took a deep breath to calm herself down. After finding the clothes the man had torn off, she hurriedly put them back on. When she felt her phone still inside her pocket, she only wanted to get away from this place as quickly as possible.
After taking a few steps, Bai Yang suddenly turned around and walked back toward the man.
She stared silently at the man lying facedown on the ground for several seconds before lifting her foot and viciously kicking him a few times.
Only then did she stagger away.
By the time Bai Yang left the alley, she had completely lost her appetite.
Most of the clothes she was wearing had been torn apart by the man in the alley, and they could barely cover the important parts of her body.
Bai Yang avoided areas with surveillance cameras and quickly returned to the hotel.
After returning, she immediately went into the bathroom and took a shower.
Once she had dried herself off, Bai Yang looked at her reflection in the mirror and could not help crying out.
“What an absolute beast!”
The person reflected in the mirror had swollen, reddened lips. Her neck, collarbones, and shoulders were covered in kiss marks, and even her chest had not been spared.
Bai Yang turned around and looked over her shoulder, only to see that her back was covered in abrasions.
Lowering her head, she saw red marks all over her body.
Bai Yang felt both ashamed and shocked.
Just how wild had it been for her entire body to be covered in marks?
At the same time, she was shocked that after such intense “exercise,” she had not fainted and had still managed to run all the way back to the hotel.
Was that man not very capable?
However, when Bai Yang caught sight of herself limping in the mirror, she immediately stopped that train of thought and walked out of the bathroom.
After lying down on the bed, Bai Yang thought that after something like this had happened, after losing her virginity to a complete stranger, she would surely be unable to sleep.
Unexpectedly, less than ten minutes later, she had already fallen into a deep sleep.
Not long after Bai Yang left, Bai Heyu also regained consciousness.
Looking at the pitch-black alley and feeling the torn clothes hanging loosely from his body, his expression darkened.
Bai Heyu frowned as he stood up.
He remembered that after meeting with Xu San, his body had suddenly begun to feel unbearably restless. Realizing that something was wrong, he hurried into the alley.
Before his consciousness descended into chaos, he had smelled a familiar fragrance.
It smelled exactly like Qingqing.
More importantly, he had seen Qingqing.
Bai Heyu was not sure whether it had been an illusion or whether he had truly seen Qingqing, but one thing was certain.
He had slept with a woman.
Bai Heyu took out his phone, and its faint light illuminated several dark red stains on the pavement.
The moment he saw them, his pupils contracted sharply.
He stood frozen in place, rare confusion and helplessness appearing in his eyes.
Was he no longer worthy of Qingqing?
After a long while, he finally opened his call log and called Fu Le.
“Bring a car over. I’m in the alley behind the internet café.”
That night, Bai Yang slept deeply.
It was not until she heard the sound of car horns outside the window that she suddenly woke up and sat upright.
“Hiss! My waist is so sore!”
Bai Yang rubbed her waist, which was still aching even after an entire night.
It was not only her waist. Her entire body felt as though it were about to fall apart.
Although she was sore and exhausted from head to toe, Bai Yang had no choice but to get out of bed.
The apocalypse was getting closer and closer, and she needed to hurry and prepare her supplies.
Bai Yang went to the bathroom to wash up. Looking at her still swollen lips and the kiss marks covering her neck, she expressionlessly tugged at the corner of her mouth.
In the end, she could only helplessly use concealer to cover all the rather alarming marks.
After covering them up, Bai Yang hurriedly packed her luggage, checked out of the hotel, and left, intending to find another place to stay.
After checking into another hotel and putting down her luggage, Bai Yang found the location of the agricultural market on her phone and headed out once again.
Bai Yang was unsure how time flowed inside the space, so she wanted to buy a batch of seeds and plant them first to observe how long it took for the plants to mature.
Although it was only early May, the weather was already abnormally hot.
Bai Yang had not eaten for nearly an entire day, so she held a freshly bought stuffed egg pancake in her hand as she ate and looked around the relatively small agricultural market.
As noon approached, there were not many people in the market.
Bai Yang walked around the entire market, finished the pancake in her hand, and entered the largest seed shop.
“Sir, do you have any fresh seeds?”
“Yes, almost all the seeds in my shop are fresh. Little girl, just pick whatever seeds you want. Once you’re finished, bring them over and pay.”
The shop owner was an elderly man with an honest-looking face. Seeing that Bai Yang was alone, he smiled warmly.
When Bai Yang saw the wide variety of seeds, she felt slightly dizzy.
One or two kinds would have been easy enough, but there were so many that all she could see was green.
“Grandpa, I’ll take ten packets of every kind of fruit and vegetable seed. Can you give me a discount?”
“Ten packets of every kind?”
The shop owner was stunned.
After running his shop for so many years, this was the first time he had heard someone ask to buy so many seeds.
“Little girl, every fruit and vegetable comes in different varieties. Are you sure you want ten packets of every single one?”
“Yes. Grandpa, please calculate the total for me.”
Bai Yang nodded.
She did not need to think too hard to understand why the shop owner was so shocked.
There were at least dozens of different fruits and vegetables in this shop. On top of that, each type had different varieties.
Altogether, there were probably close to a hundred kinds.
Seeing Bai Yang nod, the shop owner began rapidly tapping away on his calculator. At the same time, he instructed his workers to package ten packets of every kind of seed.
After calculating for more than ten minutes, the shop owner carefully looked at Bai Yang.
“Little girl, there are 342 varieties of seeds in total. Ten packets of each makes 3,420 packets altogether. The total comes to 10,260 yuan, but I’ll charge you 10,200 yuan.”
Seeing how cautiously the shop owner looked at her, as though he were afraid she could not afford it, Bai Yang could not help smiling.
She took out her phone and paid.
After waiting for a while longer, the seeds were finally packaged.
Since she had bought so much and the packages were rather heavy, Bai Yang asked the shop owner to have someone deliver them to her hotel.
After leaving the agricultural market, Bai Yang returned to the hotel to rest. She planned to look for a clothing manufacturer that afternoon.
There were plenty of fruits, vegetables, and meat for sale at the agricultural market, but Bai Yang did not buy any.
H City was not particularly safe, and buying large quantities could easily attract unwanted attention.
Therefore, even though she needed to gather supplies, Bai Yang planned to begin doing so after returning to Q City.
First, she was more familiar with Q City and could rent a large temporary warehouse there to use as a storage location. Everything she purchased could gradually be delivered there.
Second, she could travel to other provinces to purchase local specialties and, while she still had the chance, take another look at China before the apocalypse arrived.
Bai Yang slowly walked back to the hotel and saw the seeds she had purchased placed at the front desk.
Beside them was a hoe that had been included as a gift.
Bai Yang could barely contain her excitement.
After carrying the seeds and the hoe back to her room, she immediately closed the door and entered the space, completely forgetting about the rest she had planned to take.
