Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus-Chapter 147 - 139: We Can Help You Kill Someone
Before Li Yu could enter the medical room, he heard Song Min say in a scolding tone, "Why are you still crying? Now that you've had your birthday, you're 16 years old. Don't cry; be a brave man!"
Right after she finished speaking, a male voice came from inside, "Sis, you're finally awake. I won't cry anymore."
Li Yu lifted his foot and entered the medical room, where he saw Song Qi sitting beside the sickbed, still with tears in his eyes, while Song Min lay half-reclined on the bed, her face faintly etched with pain.
Both of them stopped talking when they saw Li Yu enter.
"He's been doing alright, staying by your side these past few days without much rest. He hadn't been seen crying before. He's a real man," Li Yu said softly.
Upon hearing this, a complex expression emerged in Song Min's eyes, mixed with shame, a touch of emotion, and a hint of relief.
Song Qi, sitting beside Song Min, looked at Li Yu full of gratitude after hearing what he said. This man had been his idol and had helped them more than once.
Now, at this moment, Li Yu's words of encouragement felt like a warm stream nourishing his heart, deepening his admiration for Li Yu.
Song Min shifted her gaze from Song Qi and looked straight at Li Yu, her eyes complicated with emotion.
She didn't know what to say for a while. She had always been the elder sister, with their parents having passed away when they were very young, leaving her to bring up Song Qi. Being a woman alone in society had its challenges, but times had been good at one point. Her hard work paid off, and she finally made her own way, setting up a beauty salon with all her savings. Business was steadily improving.
Then the apocalypse erupted.
After the apocalypse, she went through the greatest suffering of her life. Because she was weak and powerless to resist, it was Li Yu who saved her and helped her exact revenge.
This woman, with her own hands, had managed her way from nothing to her own beauty salon. The hardships she faced had tempered her into someone strong. From the moment of her revenge, she grew even stronger.
However, the subsequent Zombie Tides and threats from various powers left her utterly exhausted. She wanted to bring her sisters to join them, but fearing rejection, she had severed ties and never mentioned it.
Now, Li Yu had finally brought them into the base. Did this mean he was willing to accept them? But what if that wasn't their intention?
At this moment, Song Min was inwardly fretful, unclear about Li Yu's intentions.
Li Yu, standing opposite her and observing the complex expressions on Song Min's face, could guess some of her thoughts.
So he took the initiative to ask, "I heard you were looking for me, is there something you need?" His tone was even, neither warm nor cold, just a normal speaking manner.
On hearing Li Yu's question, Song Min dropped her hesitations and said directly and clearly, "Can we join you? Don't worry, even though we're women, we can still kill Zombies... and help you kill people."
Upon hearing this, an amused expression crossed Li Yu's face. This woman was rather clever.
In the apocalypse, as before it, kindness was a good trait but also a dangerous one.
She knew well that in the apocalypse, there is no love without reason, no hatred without reason, no help without reason, and no sheltering them without reason.
Every action is because there's something to gain. Perhaps Li Yu saved them before out of the kindness of his heart, wanting to avoid future trouble by doing something handy.
Later, when Song Min took the initiative to provide information, becoming Li Yu's Spy outside the base, she showed gratitude. Faced with other powers pressing her for information, she didn't reveal anything about Li Yu, which he found acceptable.
Now this woman, knowing she had been brought into the base, immediately started to prove her worth.
Additionally, saying that she could help kill zombies, and even assist in killing people! And, there is no stated precondition for killing people—that's where Song Min's intelligence lies.
Without establishing a standard for killing people, it means that as long as Li Yu gives the order, Song Min could kill anyone, regardless of right or wrong. On this point, her attitude of expressing loyalty, full marks!
Li Yu then spoke, "Oh? You can kill anyone? No matter if the person is good or bad?"
Upon hearing this, Song Min didn't hesitate for even a second. She directly responded, "From the very beginning, it was you who saved us, we owe our lives to you. Moreover, I trust your decisions. There's no absolute good or bad in this world; whoever you command me to kill, I will kill!"
Li Yu looked at this woman, growing increasingly appreciative.
Song Min, truly deserving of being someone who could carve out her own business amidst market competition.
The art of her speech, well-mastered, starting from expressing her group's role initially, followed by considering the fact that Song Min led them.
When she replied the second time, she expressed a subordinate relationship, putting herself in a lower position, indicating she would listen to Li Yu from now on.
Additionally, one can see that she has a precise understanding of issues, knowing that loyalty is of utmost importance to Li Yu in this post-apocalyptic world.
Decisive in action as well, when that man from the Salvation Army fled, she took decisive action.

A smart person indeed, Li Yu said with a smile, "Welcome to the team! Take some time to recover from your injuries. When you're feeling better, you can take a walk outside your room. The scenery outside is not too bad at this time of the year."
Song Min, upon hearing Li Yu's personal acceptance, instantly had a look of excitement burst forth in her eyes. Under the covers unseen by Li Yu, her hands tightly clenched the bedsheets, finally joining.
Being able to join a capable, reliable, disciplined team with humanity was a stroke of luck for her, for them. After all, in this tumultuous post-apocalyptic world, women are relatively at a disadvantage.
Although they have become very strong and brave, their strength cannot withstand too powerful forces.
"Thank you!" Song Min said earnestly.
Li Yu said nothing. Reality is cruel; everyone bustles about for their own benefits. Initially allowing them to join, was partly because he felt they possessed a certain combative strength and a strong will.
So, their joining was just a beginning; if later on they fail to demonstrate the required contribution and ability, become lazy, or even betray, then Li Yu would not hesitate to eliminate them.
Even the workers who had joined before had been very diligent, actively participating in the base's breeding, farming, and even going out to collect resources.
"Time to go, get some good rest." Having said that, Li Yu left straight away.
Song Min gave Song Qi a little pat and hastily said, "Hurry, see the boss off."
Li Yu, hearing the title, turned around and said, "Don't call me boss; I've killed quite a number of bosses recently. Just call me Li Yu."
Song Min shook her head. It's essential to be clear about the subordinate role; titles matter greatly and must be taken seriously.
Finally, she said, "Alright, Boss."
Li Yu sighed, feeling that Song Min really knew how to handle things, but it was fine as long as she was truly loyal; nothing else mattered.
Shaking his hand, he headed towards the door, with Song Qi following to see him out.
