A single man went into a couples' room

"Chen Yu! What the fuck do you mean?! What do you mean by 'whatever'?"

"You've got everything planned out for the three of them, but for me, it's just 'whatever'?"

"You're fucking targeting me on purpose!"

Zhang Zihao spoke fiercely, "You want everyone to think my gathering supplies is meaningless because we'll eventually die? Do you really think everyone will believe whatever you say!"

Deng Yuxin's face turned even paler from fright, and she instinctively tried to pull him back. "Zihao! Don't be like this! Please don't be impulsive, Chen Yu... he didn't mean it like that..."

"Then what did he mean?!"

Zhang Zihao violently shook off Yuxin's hand. The force was so great that she stumbled, her eyes turning red.

"Can't you see, Yuxin? He's had a problem with me from the very beginning!"

"When we were grouping up! When he asked about the harvest just now! And now this! He just wants to embarrass me! To make me unable to hold my head up in front of you all!"

Li Mengyao also spoke up timidly, "Zhang Zihao, calm down. We're a team!"

Wang Mengmeng opened her mouth to say something, but seeing Zhang Zihao's crazed state, she eventually swallowed her words and silently leaned closer to Li Mengyao.

Zhang Wanyue shook her head. "Alright, we're all classmates. We have to survive together in the future, so don't let things get too tense."

"Zihao..."

Yuxin pleaded, "Stop shouting, okay? Let's just pack what needs to be packed like he said. Now isn't the time for arguing. I'm scared..."

Those last three words, spoken with a tremble, struck Zhang Zihao.

He looked into his girlfriend's tearful, pleading eyes; even the coldest person would be moved.

The most hateful one was Chen Yu!

That guy... from beginning to end, he hadn't even turned around to look at him, nor had he offered a single word of rebuttal!

But the more it was like this, the more he looked like a clown!

*Clatter.*

*Clatter.*

*Clatter.*

Although each slot could hold a hundred identical items, the problem was... this supermarket didn't have a warehouse, only the goods on the shelves.

Let alone a hundred identical items, even finding ten was difficult.

This resulted in a huge waste of space... They could only follow Chen Yu's arrangements and pick the best items to pack.

Before long, everyone's backpack space was mostly filled.

"There are still five hours left before the abnormal status ends."

Zhang Wanyue calculated, "In other words, it should be three in the morning when it ends."

Yuxin pointed toward the back of the supermarket. "There are rooms to rest in on the second floor, but there are only two. If we want to rest, we'll have to divide them up."

Zhang Zihao stepped forward and put his arm around Yuxin's shoulder. "Um... we're a couple, so there shouldn't be a problem with us taking one room, right?"

Wang Mengmeng immediately retorted, "Are you kidding? You don't expect the four of us to stay together, do you?"

Zhang Zihao shrugged. "Didn't you guys specifically come back just to find Chen Yu? Why are you acting so disgusted about sharing a room with him now?"

His words were slightly provocative.

Li Mengyao frowned and spoke up, "Zhang Zihao, of course we're not disgusted by Chen Yu. It's just that four people in one room is simply too crowded to sleep."

Yuxin also nodded. "Zihao, the two of us staying in one room is indeed a bit..."

Zhang Zihao curled his lip. What he had originally thought was that he could take the opportunity to be intimate with Yuxin.

Before the apocalypse, the two had been in love for three years and had a very good relationship, but Yuxin had adamantly insisted that they wait until marriage for sex, or even any close physical contact.

Now was the perfect opportunity to break through those defenses.

But looking at the situation...

No one supported him; instead, there were a lot of objections.

'It's all Chen Yu's fault. If it weren't for him, I would be the absolute leader of the team!'

'Even Zhang Wanyue wouldn't dare to defy me!'

'Speaking of Zhang Wanyue, though the Class Committee Member usually loves to manage evening self-study, she's definitely an ice-cold beauty...'

Zhang Zihao took a deep breath, appearing calm on the surface. "Fine, fine, fine, we'll do what you say then. So what does everyone think? How about letting the Class Committee Member..."

Zhang Wanyue refused directly, "I'm not staying with a couple."

Li Mengyao went over and grabbed Zhang Wanyue. "Class Monitor, you come to our room."

Zhang Wanyue nodded. "Alright."

Zhang Zihao was stunned. "What do you mean? You want... Chen Yu? To come to the room with Yuxin and me?"

Wang Mengmeng spread her hands. "Otherwise? Do you want Chen Yu to sleep outside?"

Being shut down like that, Zhang Zihao felt another surge of anger. "This is definitely inconvenient! Chen Yu, he..."

Zhang Wanyue shook her head. "Zhang Zihao, we're all classmates, and now we're all in the same boat. It's just for a few hours of rest, taking turns on night watch, and sleeping with our clothes on. How is that inconvenient?"

"Or are you still thinking about something inappropriate?"

The question was so direct that Zhang Zihao was speechless, half out of shame and half out of frustration.

He wanted to argue back, but found that anything he said would make him look petty.

Just then, Yuxin gently tugged at his sleeve.

Zhang Zihao looked down and saw his girlfriend looking up at him. Her large eyes still held traces of lingering fear, but she was trying hard to give him a small smile.

Her nose was still a bit red, but this facade of composure, combined with her naturally sweet and cute appearance, created a sense of being pitiful yet trying to be sensible.

"Zihao,"

She spoke softly, her voice tender. "Let Chen Yu come to our side. Besides... with Chen Yu nearby, I feel a bit more at ease."

After saying that, she quickly added, "I mean, he can foresee the future, which is helpful to us..."

Zhang Zihao looked at Yuxin and finally nodded. "Alright."

From beginning to end, Chen Yu hadn't said a single word about the room assignments.

But as a bachelor, being assigned to a couple's room...

...was still somewhat strange.

It wasn't until then that he spoke calmly, "We'll take turns on night watch. Yuxin, Zhang Zihao, Wang Mengmeng, Li Mengyao, Zhang Wanyue. In that order, one hour each, exactly five hours."

Zhang Zihao's lip twitched. "Wait, why aren't you on this schedule..."

Chen Yu chuckled. "Because five people are enough."

Zhang Zihao muttered, "Then why shouldn't I be the one resting?"

Chen Yu spread his hands. "Because I have to foresee the future, which is very tiring. If you want to rest, fine, you want to do the foreseeing?"

Zhang Zihao went silent again.

If he dared to object to this reason, the girls nearby would surely side with Chen Yu again.

Now, his position in the team was precarious.

I have to teach Chen Yu a lesson tonight, otherwise, my life on this Path to Survival won't be easy..."}],
