Apocalypse King: Recruiting S-Tier Beauties With My Ruler System-Chapter 219: The Dark of the Night

Despite earning a good amount of points and preparing to meet and complete Jiang Roulan’s quest, I couldn’t feel happy. The moonlight leaked into the small building we managed to apprehend in the southwestern area of Longwan.

’To think they could see it that way.’

My back felt cold against the stone wall, unable to sleep, and following the new rules, I was alone tonight, the warmth of Qinglan and Yifei gone.

It wasn’t that I didn’t know what they meant.

As a leader, I shouldn’t be seen as some pathetic man who couldn’t live without sex or women, but at the same time...

Why should I conform to the needs and thoughts of others?

I didn’t know if these feelings of anger and frustration were unjustified, but somehow being told how to act wasn’t something I liked. It almost felt like someone forcing you to eat something you dislike and smiling while you suffer.

"Well, saying that... why are you here, Roulan?"

Despite this whole thing being part of her idea, she still came to my room in the dead of night, standing in her nightgown while leaning against my door.

Jiang Roulan tapped the door with a slightly embarassed expression. "You caught me..." She let out a dry laugh before stepping inside, her silken black dress fluttering in the light breeze. "How do I look?"

"You look like you want something." The words slipped from my mouth, but I didn’t regret them.

Although the night was cold, Roulan seemed different in the darkness, almost glowing as she stepped closer, sitting beside me on my mattress.

A loud, high-pitched squeak filled the night as I looked at the girl beside me.

"I’m not going to do anything, John, so calm down."

She let out another dry laugh while I tried to figure out what to say.

"It’s not me who would need to calm down, right? If I look back on it, isn’t it you who always flirts with me first?"

Roulan turned bright red and couldn’t meet my gaze.

"John!"

"That’s why when you came into my room like that, it was clear to me what you wanted."

I enjoyed the rare chance to tease Jiang Roulan; her face turned red as she turned away, hitting my thigh with a huff, but she didn’t deny my question.

After a few moments, she calmed down and took a deep breath. "You’re right, I’m... well, I wanted to be with you. At least tonight, before everything goes mad."

’I should be the one saying those words.’ Her expression softened while looking at the moon.

She leaned against me, pushing her body closer than I expected.

"I never thought we’d be here, or that if you did fulfil my request, it would never have felt so real."

"Real? That’s a vague term for reuniting with your family."

"Haha... well, the situation is strange, imagine thinking the dead would walk the earth a few months ago?"

Sometimes Jiang Roulan gave off the strangest vibes, sometimes the mature and commanding police officer, then the weak and vulnerable young woman and then this one... the one that seduced him.

"Can I ask you something? It’s a serious question, so please don’t lie." She continued while I was lost, contemplating the fascinating character of the woman named Jiang Roulan.

"What?"

The sound of the watchmen echoed outside, distant shots and calls as zombies approached our current area.

"If you knew... everything about the zombies and this situation beforehand, would you have done things differently?" She asked calmly, looking at the moon.

"Well, by the time I was aware, what could we have changed?" I honestly found the question interesting, but simultaneously realised that I might not have been able to change much.

At the time I lacked power, knowledge and maturity...

"Of course, I mean if you came back with time to prepare." Her voice turned soft, almost dreamy like when she was drunk. She sat beside me, her eyes turning towards mine.

The dark orbs of her irises glittered in the night.

No, she seemed drunk, even though the scent of whisky lingered on her breath, I wondered if she would change things to make up with her family sooner, but if that happened would I meet her in the same way, would we be like this right now, side-by-side, able to feel each other’s body heat.

"I... don’t know if I would." The words felt heavy on my tongue, but I had no other answer. "I’m not sure how much my knowledge can change, and right now, there’s too much unknown. Also..." I hesitated, turning to face Roulan.

She looked up at me, curious eyes tracing my features before smiling, "Also?" She repeated.

"Would I have met you and Qinglan, or would I only have been able to see her as my boss? Would you all still be here if I didn’t do what I did?"

There was a fear that if I changed, what would happen? Would I still gain this System, or what if Jiang Roulan died in another place... I might be able to save Old Lei, but when considering my past actions, could I repeat them and survive again?

I didn’t have the same confidence as those regression characters in novels.

Because I couldn’t remember things from the day before, let alone plots and characters from a tiny novel or every event I endured accurately.

When I thought about it...

I knew I had changed in many ways. My confidence and awareness of others grew, but at the same time, knowing I’d changed and lost some things made me anxious.

"Are you worried about things like that?" Jiang Roulan’s soft fingertips brushed my cheek as she smiled.

"Is it pathetic?"

"No.." Her head pushed closer, "Am I that important to you?" Her tone turned light and playful.

"Of course—" As I spoke, the sensation of lips interlocked with my own, and a smooth tongue slipped inside my mouth.

’What?’

Her tongue tangled around mine in an instant. freeωebnovēl.c૦m

Jiang Roulan pushed me back while she straddled my waist, and the silky gown she wore slipped up her hips, revealing her soft, pale thighs and muscles. But before I could speak, her lips wrapped around my tongue, pulling gently as she sucked on them.

The heat between us grew, our bodies pressed together.

Roulan seemed to grow restless, her tongue rolling in my mouth as she kissed me, but when my hands moved towards her dress-covered ass, she grabbed them and pinned them over my head. "Don’t get ahead of yourself," Her playful tone contrasted with the way her hips swayed, rubbing her warmth against my bulging pants.

She continued to kiss me, moving from my lips toward my neck.

The sound of her lips touching me drove me crazy, my hands grabbing her ass and pushing my fingers into the plump, soft skin as she released a sexy groan, sinking her teeth into my neck. "You’re a naughty boy, John."

I wanted to kiss her back, and when my arms moved, I felt her grip tighten, preventing me from acting freely.

"Tonight... is special." She whisperd, dragging her tongue along my throat, leaving a warm, sticky trail as she pressed both lips close and sucked on my adam’s apple.

Her hands snaked along my chest, lifting the hem of my shirt and pulling it over my abdomen, then chest and over my head in a fluid and sensual motion. "John..."

Roulan was a beautiful woman with a slender body and soft curves accentuating her figure; no man could ever resist her if she approached them like this, and I was no different.

She was a devil, with breasts larger than Roulan’s, and buttocks that required her to wear jeans a size too big. Her brown hair reached her shoulders, and when she looked at me, I couldn’t deny the sense of hunger in her expression.

Her hands traced along my muscles, gliding over my stomach, as the sensation of her nails tickled me as they nicked my muscles. She looked down at me while sitting on my lap, pressing herself against me. "I’ve been waiting so long to do this with you."

I caught my breath, lifting her hips and pressing my nose against her neck. "Oh? I thought you wanted to wait longer, so what changed?" Her sweat and perfume filled my lungs as I inhaled, holding her tight.

"I’ve waited too long, I want to feel you tonight." Jiang Roulan’s voice sounded sweet, like a dangerous poison I couldn’t help but drink, even knowing the truth. "If not now, others will take you from me."

"Are you jealous?"

Her nails sank into my shoulder blades, drawing blood before she spoke. "You are mine, John, and I don’t care what happens, I’ll never let anyone take you from me..." Jiang Roulan often spoke this way when flirting or trying to seduce me, but right now there was something strange...

A different depth, or weight, to her words.

She pushed me back, removing her nightgown and showing me a sexy lace bra which lifted her breasts upwards, making her cleavage more prominent than ever. I lay mesmerised by the heavy melons that bounced when she snapped her bra open, letting her erotic pink buds sway in the darkness.

"I won’t hold back anymore."
