Chapter 46: We Are Willing to Absolutely Obey You
She discovered that she didn't actually resent Xiao Yi's approach.
Although it was very direct, it was also perfectly reasonable.
He had saved them, given them food and drink, and protected their safety.
And what could they, in turn, offer Xiao Yi?
Besides absolute obedience, besides their own bodies.
What else was there?
They had nothing.
Compared to the despicable and sinister nature of Zhou Zhengyu and his ilk, Xiao Yi's approach even seemed somewhat benevolent.
With his power, he could easily take by force whatever he wanted.
Including her!
Suo Ruoqing knew that even she had no possibility of resisting Xiao Yi.
He was simply too strong.
He had even surpassed the scope of humanity.
She wouldn't even have the chance to choose death over submission.
Xiao Yi only needed a single palm strike to knock her unconscious.
Then, he just needed to feed her some drug that could make a woman impulsive and delirious, and she would meekly comply.
Even if they refused, Xiao Yi could still do whatever he wanted.
Whatever Xiao Yi did to them was his right.
Just as he had said, he was the supreme law!
He was a god!
No one could defy him.
In this apocalypse, there was no one who could punish him for doing as he pleased.
Yet, even so, Xiao Yi had actually given them the power to choose.
This meant only two things were possible.
One was Xiao Yi's benevolence.
The other was that they were a matter of indifference to Xiao Yi, that he even held them in some contempt.
He was completely nonchalant.
Yes.
Suo Ruoqing believed that Xiao Yi was indifferent to them, even disdainful.
"Brother! We are willing to go back with you! We are willing to be your servants! We will listen to everything you say!"
No one expected that the first to speak would be the pair of twin sisters.
"We would just be a burden to everyone if we stayed here. Besides, the two of us are too weak. If we run into bad people in the future, we might not even get the chance to choose, and we might even be hurt by many people!" one of the twin sisters said seriously.
The other nodded in agreement: "We quite like the little brother. He's very capable, and very kind, and he saved all of us. If the little brother wants us, we would be very willing."
With the two of them leading the way, the other few young wives also hurriedly declared their willingness to follow Xiao Yi, to become his servants.
The adorable, big-eyed little girl, who was seven or eight years old, also raised her hand and said, "Big brother! Please, take me with you! I promise I'll be very, very obedient!"
Xiao Yi nodded in satisfaction. He stroked the little girl's smooth long hair and, with a rare smile, said, "Silly child, brother doesn't need you to do anything. After you come back with me, just follow the older sisters and live well. I'll have another sister teach you how to read and study."
Hearing Xiao Yi's promise, everyone was moved to tears.
Perhaps their past experiences had made them understand the dangers of the apocalypse, because Xiao Yi's simple, ordinary words made them feel endlessly grateful.
In an instant, they saw Xiao Yi as a great and noble sage!
After speaking, Xiao Yi turned his head to look at Suo Ruoqing. Now, everyone else had stated their position, leaving only Suo Ruoqing and the few female team members behind her who had not yet spoken.
Everyone's gaze fell on Suo Ruoqing, and her cheeks flushed even more.
Biting her lip hard, Suo Ruoqing lifted her head and said firmly, "I am also willing to go with you. To follow all your arrangements, and to absolutely obey you."
As soon as Suo Ruoqing spoke, the female team members behind her also stepped forward one after another to pledge, "We are also willing to follow you, to follow your arrangements, and to obey you with all our hearts."
Xiao Yi nodded in satisfaction, very pleased with their performance.
"Clean this place up for now. Stay here for a few more days temporarily. I will find a way to come and get you as soon as possible."
After saying this seriously, Xiao Yi wasted no more words. He leaped from the rooftop and vanished from their sight.
"Sister Ruoqing, this man is actually quite cool, and he's really amazing, like a superhero. I think it's a good thing that we're following him." A female team member, seeing Suo Ruoqing staring blankly at the spot where Xiao Yi had been, tried to comfort her.
"Officer Suo, we think this young handsome guy is pretty nice too. He should be a good person. We won't lose out by following him!" a rather beautiful young wife said with a smile.
"Oh! Little Cai! I think you're just hoping that young handsome guy will take you, you little hussy! Are you in heat or what!" an older, middle-aged woman teased with a snicker.
"What's so bad about being with such a powerful man! I just wonder, how is this young handsome guy in bed? If he's just as fierce, that would be great!" a curvy woman in her thirties said, biting her lip with a somewhat dazed look in her eyes.
