Chapter 279: Should Men Die for Women?

Upon hearing Gao Yuanyuan's words, both Wu Qilong and Liu Shishi were completely dumbfounded! It wasn't just these two; everyone around was also utterly bewildered. Even Alex, despite his composure, felt a bit confused.

The logic behind her statement wasn't fundamentally flawed, but the unabashed and self-righteous manner in which she put it forward made it hard to accept. It was akin to voluntarily offering your seat to an elderly person on a bus, which is considered a sign of good manners.

However, if an elderly person points at you, insults you, and forces you to give up your seat, with others joining in or even resorting to physical violence, it becomes uncomfortable.

It was like... moral coercion!

Yes, this formula was undoubtedly a standard recipe for moral coercion! Alex suddenly sensed this flavor, and it unmistakably reeked of moral coercion, especially with the added seasoning of female chauvinism.

He sneered as he observed Zhao Youting. Alex was genuinely curious about how this textbook example of a lapdog would react. If it were a normal man, he might see through the woman's intentions. However, it was clear that Zhao Youting was far from a normal man. Otherwise, Gao Yuanyuan wouldn't have transformed into such a radical female chauvinist.

Rather than attributing these women's twisted ideologies to their own thoughts, it was more accurate to say that lapdogs had cultivated the fertile ground for the growth of female chauvinism.

Sure enough, Zhao Youting suddenly burst into tears.

"Darling... I'm sorry... I was too selfish just now! I didn't think it through! I'm sorry I couldn't protect you. From now on, you must live well...

I can't take care of you anymore..." Zhao Youting cried, tears streaming down his face. He glanced at Gao Yuanyuan's belly, showing no signs of pregnancy. With determination, he stood up, closed his eyes, and let out a loud roar before charging into the horde of zombies.

In an instant, Zhao Youting was submerged in the sea of corpses, becoming the meal for the zombies. His screams were chilling and haunting, leaving a profound impact on those who witnessed it, even though it lasted only a few seconds.

Watching Zhao Youting's performance, Alex was utterly dumbfounded this time. It even felt like his own perspectives had become somewhat distorted. However, he couldn't help but notice the look Zhao Youting gave to Gao Yuanyuan's belly just before his sacrifice.

"Could it be that Gao Yuanyuan is pregnant?" This sudden thought crossed Alex's mind. If Gao Yuanyuan was indeed pregnant, Zhao Youting's actions would be understandable. A father sacrificing his life to protect his child would be respectable. Moreover, the idea of a pregnant woman being vigorously protected could evoke a different sensitivity.

Alex suddenly became curious and even a bit intrigued at the possibility of Gao Yuanyuan being pregnant. "Very well! Gao Yuanyuan, you can live now," Alex said casually, glancing at Gao Yuanyuan, who was looking at him with anticipation.

As Alex spoke, tears welled up in Gao Yuanyuan's eyes, cascading down her cheeks like a torrent. She didn't cry aloud; instead, her tears silently rolled down her face.

Meanwhile, Wu Qilong and Liu Shishi couldn't help but tremble uncontrollably. Alex had shifted his gaze to Liu Shishi.

Though Wu Qilong and Liu Shishi were holding each other's hands tightly, neither dared to look at the other. They feared that their eyes might reveal something unusual or, conversely, that they might see something unsettling in the other's gaze.

At this moment, the ugliness of human nature had begun to emerge, unabashedly appearing in the eyes of the couple. Alex's lips curled into a slow smirk. He could see fear, guilt, and inner conflict in their eyes.

Among the female stars present, Liu Shishi was the one he found most interesting. Starting with Zhang Yuxi, he intended to open their defenses step by step, tearing apart their boundaries and exposing their pretenses, allowing their ugly human nature to be laid bare.

Having witnessed too much human ugliness, Alex could easily grasp the weaknesses of human nature. Starting with Zhang Yuxi, he progressed to the surprisingly resolute couple Gao Yuanyuan and Zhao Youting.

Now, it was finally the turn of the Liu Shishi couple. Originally, he thought that this couple would pose a significant challenge. However, the expressions he saw on their faces disappointed Alex.

"It's your turn now. Are you ready?" Alex smirked maliciously, his eyes filled with mockery.

Wu Qilong and Liu Shishi couldn't help but shiver, remaining silent.

"I'll give you two options as well. You can discuss and decide together on this multiple-choice question. After all, you've been a model couple for many years. Before the apocalypse, countless people envied the two of you!" Alex chuckled, casting a glance at the hesitant and evasive gaze of Wu Qilong before continuing, "Only one of you can survive, or you can choose to die together.

In that case, I would genuinely respect both of you, letting me know that even celebrities like you have true love."

"Of course, I'm not that heartless. I can offer you an extra option: Wu Qilong, willingly offer your wife Liu Shishi to me. Let her sincerely, wholeheartedly, lick my genitals and let me fuck her slutty cunt. In this way, both of you can survive."

After Alex finished speaking, he couldn't help but lick his lips, showing curiosity and mockery in anticipation of their next choice. The sensation of controlling others' life and death, exposing the ugliness of human nature in difficult decisions, brought immense satisfaction to Alex.

As soon as Alex finished speaking, Wu Qilong couldn't help but tremble, his eyes widened, darting around in confusion, and tiny beads of sweat rolled down from his forehead incessantly. Meanwhile, Liu Shishi began to breathe rapidly, her face flushed, eyes filled with conflicting and tangled emotions, her slightly parted mouth uncertain of what to say.

She was waiting for her husband to make a decision!

If her husband chose to die with her, she would absolutely not seek survival for herself. For the sake of dignity and love, she was willing to face death together with her husband!

However, if her husband chose to let her die while he survived, she would not hesitate to choose his death! The education Liu Shishi received since childhood made her unwilling to betray her husband and even more unwilling to selfishly exchange her husband's life for her survival rights. Doing so would make her feel incredibly guilty.

However, if her husband Wu Qilong betrayed her first, then she would have nothing to feel guilty about. She could confidently let her husband die!

She didn't want to make the choice in advance because she knew that even if her husband made the first choice, she still had an absolute advantage to turn the tables. The villain in front of her seemed to have a preference for women. After all, women could become his pets, but what could men do? It was evident that this villain had no interest in men.

So, Liu Shishi felt confident!

Both of them fell into silence, seemingly waiting for the other to make a choice. Although Liu Shishi was a bit nervous, she didn't appear particularly excited. As time passed, Liu Shishi gradually calmed down. On the other hand, Wu Qilong became increasingly nervous, trembling all over, with sweat staining his back, and his hair drenched in sweat. He looked as if he had crawled out of the water.

"...You make the decision... Whatever decision you make... I'll follow you," Wu Qilong finally couldn't hold back, turning his head and speaking to Liu Shishi with a gaze that avoided eye contact.

Liu Shishi coldly glanced at her husband. Wu Qilong's words might sound moving, but upon closer thought, they revealed his weakness, incompetence, and selfishness. If he were willing to sacrifice his own life to protect his woman, he wouldn't need to hesitate or ask such a question.

He could have just stepped forward and exchanged his life for his wife's, just like Zhao Youting did, charging into the zombie horde without the need for questioning.

Why ask?

If he wanted to die with her, there was no need for many words. He could directly respond to the villain's choice and be done with it. His questioning only indicated that he wanted to survive.

And for him to survive, there were only two choices: either let Liu Shishi die or go be subservient to Alex, becoming Alex's dog.

"Bastard!" Liu Shishi cursed vehemently in her heart.

Upon seeing the furious gaze from Liu Shishi, Wu Qilong's expression immediately changed. He didn't know what he said wrong! According to reason, Liu Shishi should have been deeply moved by his words. Moreover, he could take advantage of the situation, reveal his true intentions, and convince Liu Shishi to agree to accompany the villain in front of them. This way, his life would be spared!

It was the best choice!

He was afraid that Liu Shishi wouldn't agree!
