Chapter 16: Is Chastity Really More Precious Than Life?
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, completely unable to figure out what Xiao Yi wanted.
The skinny male student, who had been fawning over Chen Kun just moments before, gritted his teeth. With a "thud," he knelt before Xiao Yi, his face plastered with a fawning expression. "Benefactor Xiao! As long as you're willing to save me, from this day forward, you are my benefactor! My reborn parents, my father! I, your son, will definitely follow your lead and obey your every command! Whatever you ask of me, I will execute without question! Father! Dear father! I beg you, save your son!"
"Fuck off! Do I look that old to you?" Xiao Yi snarled, kicking the skinny male away with disgust.
"Master! I'm willing to be your pet dog! Woof woof woof! I beg Master to throw me a scrap of food!"
A slightly chubby male student crawled on the ground like a dog, imitating a bark noise as he slowly made his way to Xiao Yi. He said with fawning sycophancy, "Master! I am your dog! Your most loyal dog! I beg Master to take me in! In the future, whoever you tell me to bite, I will bite. If you tell me to go east, I would never dare to go west. If you tell me to chase a rabbit, I would never dare to chase a chicken!"
This chubby male student was the son of an official. It was said his grandfather was a high-ranking official in the province. He used to be extremely arrogant and domineering in class, often leading a group of lackeys to bully other students, taking pleasure in humiliating his classmates and harassing female students.
But because of his background, the school was helpless to do anything. Many students without powerful family connections could only swallow their anger and endure when faced with him.
This chubby student was truly worthy of being a noble scion from a powerful political family; he had taken boot-licking to new heights, even making Xiao Yi chuckle. This kind of person would actually make a pretty good lackey.
However, Xiao Yi didn't need lackeys right now. This was the apocalypse. If he were to take on subordinates, he would take those who could fight. This kind of lackey was obviously useless trash.
Smack! Xiao Yi slapped the chubby male hard across his fat face, threw a sausage on the ground, and then stomped on it. He said to the chubby male, "Since you're a dog, eat that sausage clean like a dog would."
The chubby male was starving. The moment he smelled the sausage, he couldn't care less about whether it was dirty. He scrambled over and began to lick it off the ground.
Seeing the chubby male successfully get food, the other few male students looked at each other, struggling with their decision. They still had a shred of dignity and didn't want to fawn over Xiao Yi like a dog just for a single sausage.
The skinny male saw that the chubby male's dog act had worked, so he quickly imitated a bark and crawled to Xiao Yi, wagging his butt frantically to curry favor.
Xiao Yi kicked the skinny male away again, this time even harder, and said coldly, "If this is the only trick you have, then I'm sorry, but you're on your own."
Xiao Yi's words plunged everyone present into a panic.
Only Du Zhiming fell into deep thought. After a moment, he turned to Ling Xueya and said, "Xueya, whether everyone can survive or not now depends entirely on you!"
Ling Xueya froze for a moment, frowning as she said, "Teacher Du, what do you mean by that? The food isn't in my hands!"
"Yeah, Teacher Du, the food and water are all in Benefactor Xiao's hands now..." a girl next to Ling Xueya also said in confusion.
Unconsciously, the way they addressed Xiao Yi had changed to "Benefactor Xiao." Hearing their discussion from not far away, Xiao Yi sneered coldly in his heart:
You urged me to be kind, but when I was kind, you treated me like a dog, taking my kindness for granted!
Only now that I've become the villain do you realize how precious my kindness was.
I wasn't born vicious and cruel; you are the ones who taught me to be strong!
From today on, I will make all of you grovel at my feet and become my most lowly slaves!
Du Zhiming beckoned mysteriously, secretly calling the few of them to one side. "Benefactor Xiao just asked if Xueya was Chen Kun's woman. There must be a reason for that! Among us, Xueya is the most beautiful, so naturally, she should be the one to serve Benefactor Xiao! As long as Xueya serves Benefactor Xiao well, he will definitely give us food and water!"
As he spoke, Du Zhiming secretly glanced at Xiao Yi, who was sitting nearby watching them with great interest.
Seeing that Xiao Yi had no reaction, Du Zhiming became even more convinced of his own words. "Xueya! We're running out of time. Go on, hurry!"
"No! Why should I have to sacrifice my chastity just so everyone can get food and water? Why not one of them!" Ling Xueya pointed at the other girls beside her.
"Because you're the most beautiful! Xueya! What kind of time is this to still be worried about chastity! As long as you can win Xiao Yi's favor, none of us will have to suffer from hunger or thirst anymore!"
"Yeah, yeah! Xueya, I'd be thrilled if Xiao Yi took a liking to me! If Xiao Yi wanted me to accompany him, I'd go over this instant and serve him well! He's the only one capable of getting food and water now. Being able to become his woman is your good fortune!"
The two girls beside Ling Xueya quickly chimed in.
After all, it wasn't their chastity being sacrificed. They could just spout some platitudes to persuade Ling Xueya and get food and water in return. Why wouldn't they?
Better for a fellow classmate to die than for me to perish.
"Enough! Don't say any more! I'd rather die than go and keep this bumpkin company!" Although Ling Xueya also wanted to live, she had always been proud and arrogant. She absolutely could not bear giving her first time to a disgusting bumpkin she looked down on!
Even for Chen Kun, who was tall, handsome, and very good to her, she had always insisted on waiting until marriage!
Ling Xueya's arrogance and pride made her value her chastity more than her own life!
