"Aren't you going down to save them?"
Just then, Zhang Ye's somewhat puzzled voice suddenly rang in his ear.
Huang Zhigang was startled, save whom?
Save what person?
And wasn't it you who kicked them down the stairs?
He subconsciously turned his head to look at Zhang Ye's face, only to find the other party looking at him with a look of contempt.
"Aren't you the boss here?"
"An employee is in trouble, and you're just standing there watching eagerly?"
Huang Zhigang's expression immediately became a bit aggrieved, he wanted to save them too, wasn't the assailant who pushed the person down still around?
What if he were to go down and got kicked down as well?
Who would come to his rescue then?
"Don't be afraid."
"She offended me, but you didn't."
Zhang Ye saw the worry on his face and comforted him in a gentle tone,
"I am someone who always adheres to principles."
"Favors can go unrewarded."
"But for grudges!"
"They must be avenged! Understand?"
Huang Zhigang nodded repeatedly as if he were a parrot, repeatedly saying he understood.
He glanced at Zhang Ye, tentatively asking,
"So, may I go downstairs to check?"
Seeing Zhang Ye nod, Huang Zhigang immediately ran to the woman's side to check her breathing, then he sighed in relief.
It was fine as long as she was still alive.
If she had died, and then come back to life in the middle of the night, that would have been troublesome.
Huang Zhigang glanced at the still unconscious woman, thinking to himself that if it weren't for her, he might have been the one kicked down the stairs in a fit of rage.
This guy was no easy target.
It seemed getting information about the situation downstairs wasn't going to be easy.
Having thought it through, what to do next became quite simple.
"Director Zhang."
"Just state your terms."
"As long as I, Huang, have it, I can give you anything."
Seeing that Zhang Ye's gaze was still on Li Xiaomei, he quickly added, "If Director Zhang wants women, there are a few more upstairs, to choose from at will."
Zhang Ye couldn't help but curl his lips upon hearing this.
Quite astute.
Too bad he's barking up the wrong tree.
Although he did have a bit of Wei Wu's legacy, he wasn't interested in someone else's worn-out shoes.
"Forget about women."
"You keep them for yourself to pass the time,"
Zhang Ye casually waved his hand, indicating his lack of interest in what he had said.
Huang Zhigang's expression immediately turned sour.
He doesn't want women?
Could this kid be gay?
When he was his age, his vigor was such that he could puncture a hole in a bed while sleeping.
He couldn't help but ask, "Then what do you want?"
Zhang Ye grinned and said, "You..."
"What?"
Huang Zhigang was instantly befuddled.
He wants him?
Damn, even if the kid's gay, that's a heavy taste!
To even want someone like him?
That's way too desperate, right?
He hesitated for a moment, about to refuse when he heard Zhang Ye continue,
"Aren't you the general manager?"
"You should know whether the hotel has a generator, right?"
Huang Zhigang immediately breathed a sigh of relief, yet for some reason, he felt a faint sense of disappointment.
His gaze towards Zhang Ye couldn't hide its complexity.
So, he had come for the generator.
"Haha, so Director Zhang came for the generator,"
"Of course, I know where it is."
"It's in the machine room."
Zhang Ye, upon hearing this, became instantly excited; so there was indeed a generator here!
It looks like the system task will be completed soon.
Just don't know what the reward will be this time; could it be an increase in the employee limit again?
No matter!
Zhang Ye was all for mustering the troops; the more, the merrier!
What could be wrong with having more subordinates?
When the time came, he would just have his employees link hands and form a ring around the villa. He wanted to see if any enemy could still get in.
Huang Zhigang was no pushover either.
All the changes in Zhang Ye's expression had not escaped his notice, and calculations began to form in his mind.
"I can have someone take Director Zhang to the control room," he said.
"But first, you have to tell me what the situation is downstairs."
"And how you got in here."
Huang Zhigang's attitude was very firm as he said these words.
Clearly, he had no intention of backing down.
Zhang Ye, upon hearing this, secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
But then a thought struck him, and it seemed something was not quite right.
Take him to the control room?
Why not just bring the generator to him directly?
The answer was actually quite simple; either there was danger in the control room that the fat man dared not face, so he could only take him to the control room,
or there was no generator in the control room at all.
He was deceiving him.
Realizing this, a cold laugh couldn't help but escape Zhang Ye's heart.
He thought that with the lesson learned from that woman's example, this fat man would be more honest.
Now it seemed he had overthought it.
This Huang fellow was probably digging a pit for him!
Seeing Zhang Ye not speaking, but just staring at him, Huang Zhigang suddenly felt a bit panicked, thinking that his little trick had been found out.
He quickly forced a smile and said:
"Heh, Director Zhang, you're not satisfied with this condition?"
"Then we can negotiate some more!"
"Harmony brings wealth."
But to his surprise, Zhang Ye spoke directly, "Let's do as you said; I can tell you about the situation downstairs right now."
Before Huang Zhigang could respond, he continued, "There are about a dozen zombies on the first floor now, all blocked at the door of the security passage."
"What?"
"Then how did you—"
Huang Zhigang suddenly panicked, his first instinct was to blurt out a question about how Zhang Ye had gotten in.
But Zhang Ye cut him off before he could get the words out.
"As to how I got in, sorry, Huang, I can't tell you right now," he said.
"Let's wait until I get the generator."
Huang Zhigang immediately fell silent, thinking this kid was not so easy to deal with.
He already knew what he needed to know.
He might as well let him feel smug for a moment.
"Since that's the case, we'll talk after you get the generator."
"Shall we go up together?"
"Sure, lead the way."
Zhang Ye immediately agreed without hesitation, but in his heart, he had already set orders for the twelve bodyguards waiting downstairs.
If anything went wrong, they would rush up immediately.
The two quickly arrived on the fourth floor.
The number of survivors here had reached an astonishing thirty.
Most of them were hotel employees, with a few being guests who had checked in on that day; Li Xiaomei was one of them.
Seeing Huang Zhigang bring a stranger in, many showed surprised looks on their faces.
At this point, a new person was popping up?
Could it be someone from upstairs?
A few sleazy-looking men saw this and quickly moved closer.
"Huang, who is this?"
"He doesn't look like he's from our hotel, right?"
"Shoot! We already don't have enough to go around, and now there's another mouth to feed!"
Someone spat on the floor directly, with an exceptionally arrogant expression, as if afraid others couldn't see it.
Zhang Ye's eyebrows twitched, but his expression quickly returned to normal.
It seemed this place was not very peaceful.
"Zhao Jun, Li Xiaomei is still in the corridor; take her back to her room," Huang Zhigang said, seemingly oblivious to the tension. He waved the person over and whispered a few things in his ear.
He still didn't trust Zhang Ye and wanted to send someone to check downstairs.
