Fiercely confront lapdogs

Zhoupeng was busy fawning over Fang Yuqing nearby.

However, it was obvious that Fang Yuqing wasn't interested in this type of man like Zhoupeng.

Economically speaking, Zhoupeng was much worse off than Zhang Yi; he even rented his house.

Nevertheless, Fang Yuqing still smiled and said to him, "Thank you, Zhoupeng. But unfortunately, I already made plans with a friend that night. What a coincidence!"

A hint of disappointment flashed across Zhoupeng's face immediately.

He had spent an entire month's salary on those two concert tickets!

Originally, he had hoped to confess his feelings to Fang Yuqing during the concert.

But it turned out to be a waste of effort.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Yi smirked.

He knew Zhoupeng, this lapdog, wouldn't get anywhere in the end.

However, amidst Zhoupeng's disappointment, he saw Zhang Yi's smug smile beside him and suddenly felt furious.

To divert his own embarrassment, he immediately walked over and said to Zhang Yi, "Zhang Yi, you're really unscrupulous!"

"A grown man, making a woman help you move things. Do you have any shame?"Certainly! Here's the translated text with paragraph spacing:

Because now Zhang Yi looks at everyone as if they were dead.

A month later, 99% of the people around him would gradually die in the extreme cold storm of the apocalypse. So why bother talking to the dead?

After Zhang Yi left, Zhoupeng ran to Fang Yuqing and whispered, "Yuqing, I told you Zhang Yi isn't a good person. You should stay away from him in the future."

Fang Yuqing frowned, feeling puzzled. Because in the past few days, Zhang Yi seemed to have completely changed. He didn't come over to greet her anymore when he saw her. He didn't even chat with her or say goodnight to her every night. "There must be something strange going on!" Fang Yuqing thought to herself.

...

After work, Zhang Yi drove straight to a five-star hotel in Tianhai City. It happened to be the Hong Fu Tian Xia, where he had booked dinner before.

Upon hearing that Zhang Yi had arrived, the manager of Hong Fu Tian Xia immediately arranged a room for him with a smile. A room in a five-star hotel costs over a thousand for one night. But Zhang Yi didn't feel the pinch at all. Anyway, he still had millions in his hand. He would only feel wasteful if he couldn't spend it all.

That night, Fang Yuqing, acting out of character, took the initiative to message Zhang Yi.

Fang Yuqing: "Zhang Yi, I passed by your house today and saw someone renovating it!"

Zhang Yi smirked, "Yeah, that's right."

Fang Yuqing: "You've been acting really strange lately, hoarding things again and renovating your house. Is something going to happen soon?"

Zhang Yi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. Although this white lotus was malicious, she wasn't stupid at all. It seemed that his recent odd behavior had indeed caught her attention. But Zhang Yi didn't care. The opinions of others meant nothing to him now.

"It's nothing." He replied coldly and then threw his phone aside. On the other end of the line, Fang Yuqing looked at the indifferent Zhang Yi and felt extremely uncomfortable.

For the past two years, Zhang Yi had always been very kind to her. He always cared for her and would find various reasons to chat with her every night. However, recently, he seemed like a completely different person to her, not only being cold but also not actively chatting with her anymore.

This made Fang Yuqing feel very uneasy. She might not be interested in Zhang Yi, but she absolutely wouldn't allow Zhang Yi to lose interest in her. To Fang Yuqing, that meant a fish escaping from her pond. Although Zhang Yi wasn't born rich, he was still a high-quality middle-class entrepreneur.

"Yuqing came to work today complaining of a sore back. Next time, I hope you won't trouble her!"

Zhang Yi glanced at Fang Yuqing.

So, it was this woman who spread the matter.

Fang Yuqing still hypocritically said, "It's nothing, really. There's nothing wrong with my body."

"I just can't handle heavy lifting; it seems I've twisted my waist a bit."

As she spoke, she even reached out to pinch her own waist, then frowned in pain.

To showcase his manliness in front of Fang Yuqing, Zhoupeng suddenly pointed at Zhang Yi arrogantly, "You quickly give Yuqing 500 yuan for medical treatment."

Unexpectedly, Zhang Yi's eyes turned cold, glaring at Zhoupeng and scolding, "She helped me move things on her own initiative; I didn't ask her for help."

"Moreover, what kind of person do you think you are to come here and dictate to me?"

"Do you really think you're something?"

Zhang Yi's scolding was harsh, leaving both Zhoupeng and Fang Yuqing stunned.

Zhoupeng was just an ordinary clerk in the warehouse, powerless.

The only reason he dared to scold Zhang Yi was because Zhang Yi usually had a good temper and didn't like to argue with people.

But seeing Zhang Yi really angry, Zhoupeng suddenly felt a bit timid.Of course! Here's the translated text with paragraph spacing:

In the future, if she can't find a rich second-generation man to marry, she still has a chance to take over Zhang Yi. 

Fang Yuqing picked up her phone and sent another message. "I feel like lately, our communication has decreased a bit. It makes me feel a bit lonely." But after waiting for half a day, she didn't receive any reply. Fang Yuqing bit her lip, feeling a bit annoyed. "This darn Zhang Yi, has he gone mad recently? I took the initiative to reach out to him, and he dared not to reply to my message!" 

On the side, her roommate Lin Cainin heard Fang Yuqing's complaints and walked over with a smile. "That Zhang Yi has indeed been acting strangely lately. Who knows why he's buying so much food and drinks, and even ordering so many banquets from hotels." 

"It really feels like there's going to be a shortage of supplies soon." Fang Yuqing frowned slightly upon hearing this. She said to Lin Cainin, "Ningning, do you think something might happen in a while? Did Zhang Yi receive some kind of message prompting him to hoard goods?" 

Lin Cainin paused at this and then burst into laughter, covering her stomach. "Yuqing, are you being silly? If something were really going to happen, the authorities would surely send out a notice." 

"Let's just stay calm. If we really start hoarding supplies, others will laugh at us." Fang Yuqing listened and smiled self-deprecatingly. "You're right." 

...

Zhang Yi stayed in the suite of the five-star hotel for several days. He didn't go anywhere. During this time, on the one hand, he massively purchased banquets from various hotels. 

On the other hand, he began practicing with compound bows and crossbows in his room. Fortunately, Zhang Yi had always liked hunting in the past and had a decent foundation. Now, within a range of fifteen meters, his accuracy was particularly high. 

Especially with professional-grade compound bows in hand, such modern equipment could allow an ordinary person to shoot an arrow comparable to that of an ancient archer. 

Not to mention dealing with humans, even if encountering wild boars, hyenas, or large dogs, it could cause significant damage.

"Why... why are you shouting so loudly?"

"I was just discussing with you."

With a cold laugh, Zhang Yi turned and walked away.

He couldn't be bothered to argue with Zhoupeng any further.
