Apocalypse: I Have A Multiplier System - Chapter 372

Chapter 372: Chapter 372: Alive
As Qin Liang finished dressing him, he stepped back with a satisfied grin.

“There, you’re all set. Now, don’t mess this up, or Mother will be furious.”

Qin Liang turned to leave, but in his rush, he forgot to close the door behind him.

Qin Feng’s heart pounded as he lay there, helpless, his mind racing. I have to stop this… I have to get out of here…

Just then, he heard voices coming from the hallway. One of them belonged to his mother, the other was all too familiar—Xuan Jin.

Qin Feng strained to listen, his blood boiling at every word.

“Thank you for your help, Mrs. Qin,” Xuan Jin said, her voice full of triumph.

“Without your idea of dealing with Su Jiyai, Qin Feng would have never agreed to this marriage.”

Mrs. Qin’s cold laugh echoed in the hall.

“It’s nothing, really. Qin Feng is stubborn, but we couldn’t let him ruin his future over some nobody like Su Jiyai.”

Qin Feng’s heart stopped. Dealing with Su Jiyai? His mind raced, anger flooding every part of his being. What had they done?

“I couldn’t have done it without your help,” Xuan Jin continued, her voice sickeningly sweet. “If you hadn’t convinced me to get rid of her…”

Qin Feng felt like he had been stabbed in the chest.

His mother… the woman he had trusted all his life, had conspired with Xuan Jin to get rid of Su Jiyai.

They were behind her disappearance.

“That woman looked like she was a trouble since the moment I saw her.” Mrs. Qin muttered in dissatisfaction.

Then she turned toward Xuan Jin and couldn’t help but praise her,

“You are not bad yourself. You hired an illusion superhuman to confuse her, hired a superhuman with the power to incite the zombies, and asked the superhuman to leave his energy on Su Jiyai for an entire day so that more and more zombies would be attracted to her and she wouldn’t have a chance to escape.” Mrs. Qin praised her.

Xuan Jin blushed and said softly,

“But you were the one who had asked me to include Li Yuan in the matter and asked her to ensure that Li Yuan forges evidence, creating the plan foolproof.

Thank you, Mom, for telling me in advance to deal with Su Jiyai, otherwise, I would have failed to marry Qin Feng.”

Qin Feng’s chest tightened as he heard the full weight of his mother and Xuan Jin’s plan. His body felt cold like his blood had turned to ice.

Illusions? Zombies? They had planned everything.

They’d made sure Su Jiyai would be swarmed by zombies and… What if she’s really… gone?

No! He couldn’t believe that. He wouldn’t. Su Jiyai was strong. She had to be alive. He’d find her, no matter what these people had done.

But right now, he was trapped.

His body still wouldn’t respond, and he could feel the poison—or whatever his mother had used—still coursing through him, making him weak.

Outside, Xuan Jin giggled like she had won some grand prize.

“I couldn’t have done it without your help, Mrs. Qin. Your idea was brilliant. Qin Feng would never have agreed if Su Jiyai was still in the picture.”

Mrs. Qin hummed in approval, her voice cold and heartless.

“Now all you have to do is, sleep with him. Once you conceive his child, he would have to give up on his obsession. At most, he will make a fuss for a day to two, but then he will eventually forget her.”

Qin Feng’s head spun as he heard those words. His chest felt heavy, his breathing shallow. They want to trap me even more… with a child?

He couldn’t believe this was happening.

His own mother, plotting with Xuan Jin to destroy his life, to force him into something he never wanted.

And Su Jiyai… they had planned to get rid of her like she was nothing, just so they could move forward with their sick scheme.

Xuan Jin’s voice filled the room again, as smooth and fake as ever.

“Don’t worry, Mrs. Qin, I’ve already prepared everything. Tonight, I’ll make sure it happens. Soon, I’ll give you a grandchild, and then no one will be able to separate Qin Feng from me.”

Qin Feng’s anger boiled over.

He wanted to scream, to break free, to fight back—but his body was still frozen, helpless.

His hands twitched slightly, but it wasn’t enough. He couldn’t move.

‘I can’t let this happen… I have to find a way to stop her, to stop all of this.’

Suddenly, he heard footsteps coming toward his room. The door creaked open wider, and Xuan Jin walked in, smiling as if everything was perfect.

“Qin Feng, darling,” she said softly, walking closer to him,

“I know you’re upset right now, but soon you’ll understand. This is for the best. Once we’re married and have a family, you’ll forget all about her.”

Her hand reached out to touch his face, and Qin Feng’s skin crawled at her touch.

He wanted to pull away, but his body still wouldn’t obey. He had to fight the poison, had to regain control.

Xuan Jin leaned closer, whispering,

“Tonight, everything will change. We’ll finally be together like we were meant to be.”

Just as Xuan Jin was about to get even closer, he heard a noise outside.

It was faint, but it caught his attention. Xuan Jin froze too, her eyes narrowing as she glanced toward the door.

“What was that?” she whispered, her voice tense.

Qin Feng’s heart leaped. Could it be?

The door suddenly swung open, and there stood Qin Liang, breathless and wide-eyed.

“Mother!” he gasped. “We’ve got a problem… Su Jiyai… she’s alive!”

Xuan Jin’s face went pale, her eyes widening in shock. “What? That’s impossible!”

But Qin Feng felt a surge of hope, a fire burning inside him. Su Jiyai’s alive? The words echoed in his mind, giving him strength.

However, he soon noticed something Mrs. Qin and Xuan Jin didn’t, the guilty look in Qin Liang’s eyes.
