Everyone Knows I’m a Good Person

Editor: Casey

Song Xiabing was a man of his word.

He said he was going to destroy the Song family, so that’s what he was going to do.

While the rumour about ‘the Blazing Thunder boss’ lover being a top tier ability user who vowed to destroy the Song family from the neighbouring base’ was just beginning to spread, Song Xiabing had already accomplished his mission.

For Song Xiabing, the destruction of the Song family was just a matter of time.

The Song family had many members. Of course not every one of them had humiliated him. Some were on his side too.

But the problem was that those individuals were dealt with by Song Xiabing’s opponents in the early apocalypse.

A portion were turned into zombies. Those who didn’t get any powers were used as human bait. Those with abilities were ambushed and killed.

When it came to cutting problems at the root, the Song family were much more thorough than Song Xiabing.

At the time, Song Xiabing had just awakened his ‘useless ability’. He was also at another base and could barely keep himself alive.

Now, all he could do was retake the Song family, find the surviving families of his subordinates and take care of them.

Song Xiabing’s actions came as an absolute shock.

After all, his ability was simply too OP.

Level seven ability users were already considered top tier in the current world, and Song Xiabing could easily defeat them.

The outcome was obvious.

However, Song Xiabing didn’t kill all of them. He used the remaining members of the Song family as manual labour, making them carry the provisions that used to be theirs back to the base of Blazing Thunder.

Other people considered this a dowry. Song Xiabing considered it a betrothal gift. Shi Qing, well, his reaction could be summed up in one sentence:

“Who cares what it is?? All of it belongs to Laozi anyway!!”

The Blazing Thunder boss was very happy lately.

Because of this batch of grain, he even looked at Song Xiabing a lot more favorably.

What did Song Xiabing say to him just now?

“Boss, didn’t we agree to an 80:20 split in your favour?”

Song Xiabing confidently waited for Shi Qing to thank him.

After all, everyone knew that their prior agreement was only for the portion that the Song family had brought to the base.

However, Song Xiabing brought back four times that amount straight from their coffers.

This was far more than what had been promised.

Song Xiabing knew that Shi Qing liked grain. He was sure that Shi Qing would stop acting like a block of wood around him after he showed his sincerity with so much food.

The man sat in his chair with a cigarette in his mouth, but his dark eyes were shining like a child’s. He eagerly watched all the grain being carried into storage.

When he heard what Song Xiabing said, he took the cigarette out of his mouth and grinned. “Hey, did I say 80% earlier? You must be remembering wrong. Surely Laozi said 90%.”

Song Xiabing: “……”

Even the little brother standing behind Shi Qing winced at his boss’ shameless behaviour.

“Boss, you really said 80%. I was there when you said it.”

The man didn’t seem embarrassed after being exposed. He just huffed disdainfully and put the cigarette back in his mouth.

“So you have a pretty sharp memory, eh? What are you standing around for then? Can’t you see there’s a lot to do around here? Get to it!”

The little brother gave Song Xiabing a conspiratory smile before heading out.

Song Xiabing finally managed to react.

He had almost forgotten something.

There were two factors that allowed Shi Qing to become the boss of Blazing Thunder: his powerful fighting ability and his shamelessness.

To this man, Song Xiabing was a member of Blazing Thunder. Therefore, all the grain he brought back also belonged to Blazing Thunder.

But even if he knew this was just how Shi Qing was, Song Xiabing still couldn’t help but feel resentment towards the man.

Destroying the Song family was not as easy as it seemed.

It had drained his ability’s reserves almost dry. Mentally and physically exhausted, Song Xiabing pushed himself to bring back all this grain just to please Shi Qing.

But after his return, Shi Qing only ever had eyes for the grain.

Grain, grain, grain…

Is grain the only thing in that head of his?!

Can’t he see the living, breathing person standing right in front of him??

Song Xiabing’s heart was filled with resentment. His eyes darkened slightly as he looked at the man above him who was issuing orders to the others.

That man called out imposingly, “All of you be careful! Laozi will have your heads if even one bag bursts!”

“Hey, hey, hey. You. Yeah you. Slow down! It’s fine if you fall but don’t take Laozi’s grain with you.”

He kept referring to it as his grain.

It was really getting on Song Xiabing’s nerves.

The young man’s lips curved up into a cold smile. He languidly approached and sat on Shi Qing’s lap, wrapping his arms around his neck. “Boss, I’ve been gone for the past few days. Were you worried about me?”

“What’s there to be worried about? Your ability is even stronger than Laozi’s. You’re the last person I need to fret over.”

The man seemed a little disgusted at how close Song Xiabing was. He frowned and leaned away slightly, grumbling, “You haven’t washed for a few days, right? You’re all sticky and dirty. Get off already, I just took a bath.”

Song Xiabing took a deep breath.

He felt like his drained reserves had been fully recharged in an instant after Shi Qing’s disparaging and callous remarks.

He went through so much effort to go to the base next door, exterminate the Song family, and then rush back posthaste with all this food…

But Shi Qing told him to get off after seeing how dirty he was instead of recognizing how hard he had worked these past few days??

Song Xiabing was about ready to explode.

However, he held back in the end.

Faintly quirking his lips, he asked softly, “Boss, I haven’t been here for a few days so I forgot where the bathing place was. Why don’t you take me there?”

“You’re so fucking troublesome. Why are you still acting like a child instead of the adult you are? You even forgot where the bathing place was. If you ask me, you’ll definitely get dementia when you’re an old man.”

As expected, the man took his words at face value. He scolded Song Xiabing while pushing him off with a disgusted expression. “Get off, get off. I’ll have someone take you there.”

“I don’t want anyone else. I want Boss to take me.”

Song Xiabing deliberately showed weakness at this moment. He softened his voice, “I don’t trust anyone but you, Boss.”

“My mom passed away already and my dad wishes I was dead. Boss, you’re all I have now.”

As expected, Shi Qing stopped cursing him out.

He even stopped pushing.

After a couple of seconds, he muttered under his breath, “Forget it, I’ll take you there. This is so annoying.”

Although his tone was still as impolite as ever, there was no longer any impatience.

Song Xiabing’s heart warmed slightly.

This was Shi Qing, ah.

He seemed to be the coldest and most hardened guy around on the surface, but his heart was actually softer than anyone else’s.

The little brothers below them all looked at their boss with admiration.

He was a level seven ability user who could tame a beauty that could beat several other level seven ability users. Said beauty even offered their boss all the food he had secured.

What could accomplish this but sheer charisma?

How could you not feel a bit envious?

They looked on in admiration as their valiant boss pulled the warm and docile Song Xiabing outside.

Pei, pei, pei.

This is why the boss is the boss, right?

As expected of him!

At the bathing place, Song Xiabing jumped into the water and moved about like a mermaid after Shi Qing’s impatient urging.

Then the beauty emerged from below with a smile in his eyes.

By the edge of the pool, he beckoned to the cross-looking Shi Qing with pale, tender arms. “Boss, come closer. I have a secret to share with you.”

“Why’s a big man like you always so troublesome? We’re the only ones here and we’re both men. Just spit it out already.”

The man’s mouth might be grumbling those things, but his body obediently crouched down.

But as soon as he did, Song Xiabing suddenly grabbed his elbow and pulled him into the pool.

“Holy fuck!! What the fuck are you doing!!!”

If Song Xiabing came up from below like an elegant mermaid, then Shi Qing was more like a big tiger that accidentally fell into the water. He jerked his head out of the water in a panic before roaring with embarrassment and anger.

“Do you have a death wish?!!”

“Boss, you shouldn’t say things like that.”

Song Xiabing silently arrived by his side and gently touched that big, fiery red tail. His lips were slightly upturned.

His voice softly drifted to the man’s ears. “Our lives are bound together after all. If I die, Boss will die too, right?”

“Fuck off!”

The man cursed when his tail was touched. He became more and more incensed. “Let go already!!”

There was no way Song Xiabing would listen to him after suppressing his anger for a while. On the contrary, he intensified his actions towards the tail. He felt the fight drain from the body leaning against his.

Soon, the man who had been so formidable outside could only be carried to the edge of the pool by Song Xiabing after his weakness had been grasped. Shi Qing fumed as he unwillingly held on to the edge.

He didn’t even have the strength to get out of the water right now.

All he could do was hurl occasional swears at Song Xiabing.

Most of which was calling him gay.

Song Xiabing was already so used to this that he could disregard it. He simply continued to touch that big, fluffy, fiery red tail…

Shi Qing’s curses gradually stopped.

From outside, only the sounds of water could be heard.

At a later time, the clearly worn out Shi Qing stubbornly slapped the young man across the face.

By the time the two finally left the pool together, Song Xiabing was very much satisfied.

He gently embraced the tired man and murmured sincerely, “Boss, I love you.”

“I don’t expect you to love me back. Not despising me is good enough.”

[Ding! Song Xiabing’s animosity value: 100/100]

Shi Qing’s entire body was heavy. He was so weak that he could only grunt out, “Keep dreaming then.”

After a moment’s thought, he added, “But it’s not impossible for you to make me say I love you. You just have to promise me one thing.”

Song Xiabing’s eyes lit up. His entire body perked up.

He tried his best to move closer to the man. “What is it? I’ll definitely agree if it’s something I can do.”

Shi Qing: “Give me your 20% share of the grain.”

Song Xiabing: “……”

He felt that he was on the verge of another advancement.

The youth left the pool in silence. After carrying Shi Qing out and situating him properly, he left again expressionlessly.

After almost an hour or so, Shi Qing, who was dozing off in bed, noticed a little brother running in.

He said with trepidation:

“Boss, Song-ge has, has given away all of his food! He’s saying you told him to do it because you feel bad for all the orphans on the base…”

The little brother wiped at his sweat, feeling very afraid inside.

Who in Blazing Thunder didn’t know how much their boss cared about food.

“Boss…please don’t get angry. Even though the food’s gone, everyone’s saying you’re a very good person! A very, very good person, ah!”
