The sort of coarse work naturally was up to the experienced Lin Weiguo; swiftly slaying the zombies without any fuss, they hastily moved to room 1207, tentatively knocking on the door.
"Who is it? Is it Sister Qin Yan?" A fearful whimper flowed from Bai Guo from within the room. Afraid to even peek through the peephole, she could only confirm identities through query.
"It's me, open the door quick." Qin Yan didn't care about these details, she just wanted to rest in the room as soon as possible. The terror they'd faced on their journey was even more exhausting than multiple international flights.
Upon hearing her response, the room erupted with suppressed cheers. It seemed there were quite a few flight attendants waiting behind the door. As expected, as soon as the door was open, they didn't wait for everyone to squeeze in, the flight attendants had already rushed forward to help carry the food.
"There are fruits here, come take some from me." The bald man kept ushering the flight attendants over. As they approached, he took a deep sniff, inhaling their perfume scent, and teased, "Smells good."
Several flight attendants blushed but didn't rebuke him. Even the usually sharp-tongued Cheng Chen and Zeng Xue remained silent.
Thud, the moment the door slammed shut, everyone exhaled in unison. The high school student, ravenous and impatient, grabbed a paper bag, and as he tore off the packaging with his teeth, he began to munch on the sausage inside.
"Eat, don't hold back." His mouth was full, but the high school student didn't stop there. He gestured towards the flight attendants with an odd graciousness. This behaviour irked the bald man as he saw it as an assertion of dominance over the food that rightfully belonged to everyone. Had Lin Weiguo not glared at Wu Xudong, the bald man would have already blown his fuse.
"What nonsense." The bald man grumbled, grabbing two bags for himself.
"Thank you." The maintenance worker was quite honest. His mouth was full, but he was still busy expressing his gratitude, causing himself to choke. He then spotted the Budweiser beer in the box, hesitated, and ultimately, didn't take it.
"You guys are amazing," Kang Songde flashed a smile, giving a thumbs up, and tried to build relationships as he spoke, "Please continue to take care of me in the future."
"Tang Zheng, Old Lin, take these." Li Xinlan was hungry too, but after she got two bags, she didn't immediately start eating. Instead, she walked up to the two main forces, handing them the food, "Only meat and fruits. Don't drink, it's a hindrance."
Being as wise as they were, Tang Zheng and Lin Weiguo of course understood Li Xinlan's concern about them consuming alcohol then possibly crossing the line with the flight attendants, and they didn't bother to quibble.
"Huh, where is Zhao Jingye? And Xu Lu?" The high school student suddenly noticed that two people were missing. Coupled with the pride he felt in finding the food, he couldn't help but show off, "What, embarrassed because they couldn't even kill three zombies? Don't worry, everyone gets scared. You'll get used to it. Go on, call them over for dinner."
The high school student kept on speaking without regard for anyone else, too engrossed in his own meal to notice that the flight attendants' expressions had changed. When everyone else fell silent, faint moans and heavy panting could be heard coming from the bedroom.
"What's that sound?" The high school student reflexively asked, then realizing, his face immediately reddened. Having sneakily watched Japanese adult videos before, he naturally understood what those moans meant. The two were in bed together.
Thump, the bald man tossed half a sausage onto the ground, cursing in anger, "What the hell?! While I'm risking my life out there finding food, those two are having a good time in bed."
Qin Yan's face also darkened. Zhao Jingye and Xu Lu were completely out of line this time. The key point was that the bald man was provoked by them, and what would happen if he demanded a flight attendant to join him in bed? This guy wasn't exactly a model citizen, and as for the high school student, after hearing the bald man's words, a dissatisfied look immediately crossed his face.
The maintenance worker wore a neutral expression, while in Kang Songde's eyes, a flash of joy passed, "You guys go ahead and argue, the worse it becomes, the more I can demonstrate my value. I'm an expert at being a peacemaker. ">
"Old Lin, what should we do?" The bald man was trying to find an ally.
"Ask Tang Zheng." After Lin Weiguo said this expressionlessly, he continued gnawing at his bread, ignoring everyone else.
The moaning in the room grew louder until it culminated in a piercing scream before finally subsiding.
"Damn it, don't they care about attracting zombies?" The bald man couldn't hold back any longer. He ran to the bedroom door and kicked it twice, "So noisy, damn it!"
The bedroom door opened, and Zhao Jingye, his face filled with rage, walked out in disarray, "What are you making noise for?"
The bald man ignored him. His gaze passing over Zhao Jingye's shoulder, falling onto the bed in the bedroom. Xu Lu was sitting on the edge, attempting to put on a pair of underwear. Her chest was exposed as she hadn't had time to put on her bra.
"Is it you guys? You're back already?" Zhao Jingye was somewhat embarrassed but quickly put on an indifferent expression, asking, "Hopefully, nobody was hurt?"
Tang Zheng noticed that Zhao Jingye didn't care if Xu Lu was exposed or even bothering to close the door, he immediately felt sympathy for the flight attendant. She was being completely used as a tool for venting.. desires.
"Get outta the way." The bald man disregarded him, shoved Zhao Jingye's shoulder. He intended to enter the bedroom, his intentions obviously clear.
Hearing the commotion, Xu Lu turned around and was startled. Her bra slipped from her hands onto the floor, and then she covered her chest with both hands, squatting on the floor. There were no bedsheets on the bed as they had been used as bandages.
"Jingye, quickly get him out!"
"Stop pretending to be innocent! It won't kill you to take a look. And you, are you going to let me in or not?" The bald man glared at Zhao Jingye, his face filled with menace. His left hand moved to his waist, where a military dagger was sheathed.
"Let's talk it out." Zhao Jingye was frightened, "At this time, we should be collaborating."
"Sure, I think so too. I've risked my life, now I want a woman. What are you going to do about it?" The bald man wore a mocking smile as he unsheathed his military dagger, spinning it around nonchalantly in his hand.
"Old Lin, please talk some sense into the bald man." Qin Yan, knowing her words were futile, couldn't just sit still either. Zhao Jingye was clearly backing down. If the bald man succeeded in having his way with Xu Lu, they would be in big trouble.
"Jingye, what are you waiting for? Kick him out." Xu Lu yelled and threw her bra at Zhao Jingye.
Kang Songde originally wanted to say a few words to show his presence. However, seeing the bald man getting truly angry, he closed his mouth. He didn't want to bring disaster onto himself. Nobody else spoke either; everyone maintained silence. The others took great risks to get food; the blood on Tang Zheng's and Lin Weiguo's bodies showed they had undergone a lot of hardship while Zhao Jingye and Xu Lu were in bed, which was totally unjustifiable. They were relying on others for sustenance later on. Opposing them now was definitely not a wise move.
Of course, Xu Lu's poor relations with others also played a part in this. The flight attendants, not wanting to seem cold-hearted, shifted their gazes towards those three flight attendants who opted to stay with Zhao Jingye, their gaze spoke volumes, "Aren't you friends? Why not help her?"
