Crossdressing To Survive An Apocalypse

"W-woman....?" Zou Yue faltered a bit. "Do you really not recognise my voice?"

Fan Xui just coldly peered at the ceiling.

"Seriously? You don't recognise my voice. Listen carefully," Yue got close to his face and whispered. "Fan Xui..."

Feeling her warm breath glide over his skin, Fan Xui's shivered slightly. But soon he stiffened up. 'Can't fall for it!'

"Move your face away, woman, or else I will hurt you," he growled.

"oh...."

Yue pouted, gazing at his cold composure. It was upsetting that Fan Xui did not remember him. 'how did you lose his memory? Is it like those dramas? Did he hit his head somewhere?' he pulled Fan's head up and touched the back.

"Stop touching!" he growled deeply.

There were no scars or any signs of injury to his head.

"No signs of injury... how did you lose your memory? Is it because of your month long coma? It might be the cause...." Yue sat down in the corner of the bed, fidgeting with the stark white sheets. "You seriously don't know me?"

Fan Xui coldly glared at him. "Out!"

"But I can't. There are zombies out there."

This was a conflicting argument between them. Fan Xui really peered at that girl's face. She looked at him innocently with a pout. 'That is not going to work with me. Not after what you did!' he glared at her with killing intent.

"Don't make me repeat myself,"

Yue just frowned. 'I came here to rescue him. I can't leave yet. But he won't even let me carry him.'

His mind went into overdrive thinking of how to deal with this new grumpy Fan Xui. 'Oh shoot, I get why. He does not like being touched by men!'

'That explains a lot... but even so, I might have to carry him out of here,' He let out a deep breath of relief.

"Can you move at all?" he inspected his arms and legs visually.

After that first encounter when Fan strangled him, he could not seem to move at all. His mobility seems limited to his neck.

"Go. Out!"

Small sparks of electricity swam around in the air.

'Shit, he is serious. He is thinking of me as a threat! But I really can't leave even if I wanted to,'

The building's thirtieth floor was flooded with almost a few thousand zombies. Thankfully, this VIP room was sound proofed or else those things would have come knocking long back.

Yue peered into Fan Xui's cold eyes.

"I am your friend. Even though you don't remember it, it-it's okay. I'¦..I can't just leave you here to die."

With his strengthened resolve, he stood up rolling up his sleeve.

The older man's sharp eyes followed every one of his move with a sharp glare.

"I'm going to lift you,"

He just growled loudly that even Yue was slightly scared to approach him.

'He is Fan Xui... that kind man who shared a peanut butter cake with me. He won't hurt me... right? He won't, I guess,'

He slowly tottered closer to the bed.

Fan Xui's glaring eyes turned a light shade of blue, glowing brightly. The electricity in the air sparked with sharp sounds.

"Okay..." Yue sat back down with a pout.

His worried eyes wandered over to the door. He could hear the thundering footsteps of those zombies even from inside the soundproof room. 'They will fully cover our exits if we don't act soon....'

'God... I need to get him out, but he does not like being touched by men! Wait, he thinks I'm a woman. Yes, he thinks I'm a woman!'

He calmly stood up, adjusting his hair. "Fan~ do I look like a pretty woman?"

Fan Xui just gave him that trademark glare.

"So I look cute for a woman, right?"

If by any chance that Fan Xui was convinced he was a woman, he will just whisk him out of this hospital to the safety of the settlement.

"..."

After a few minutes of coldly looking at him, Fan Xui nodded.

"Great, now let's get to work," Yue happily hopped over and touched his thighs, ready to lift him up.

A small shot of electricity shot through him.

"Ah! D-did you... did you just shock me?"

Fan Xui looked at the young woman in slight awe. Usually when a person was attacked by his electricity, they get charred or, in low doses, collapse unconscious. But this woman did not even flinch. She slightly frowned, massaging the red spot on her palm.

'Is she immune to my powers? Or is my powers that weak?'

His mind wandered, thinking of possible answers to his dilemma.

"How can I rescue you without touching? Don't you see we are surrounded by thousands of zombies on every floor? You can't walk!" the young woman panted, glaring at him. Her limpid eyes seemed to shimmer even more brightly in anger.

"I can walk!" Fan Xui challengingly glared back.

At this point, it became the staring contest. "Can you now?" she sarcastically grinned and lifted his limp arm. It flopped down uncontrollably. "You can barely control your arm,"

Fan Xui shot her again with electricity.

"Ow! You have to stop doing that. I'm only trying to help,"

"I won't ever fall for your honey trap!" he growled loudly. 'Even those eyes can't catch my interest. I already have a stalker waiting for me!'

"Seriously..." she suddenly put a hand under his head once again. "There are no bumps."

Fan Xui coldly shocked her with all his powers.

"Ow! Ow! Stop shocking me! I am not trying to hurt you..."

She seemed more upset at his rejection.

But Fan could not care less. His mind could not wrap around the idea that his dear friend was gone.

He whimpered, burying his pounding head in the soft pillow.

'Must be that wretched Bai family. They must have sent her here. Those fuckers! They must have died I that fucking jail cell....I should have killed them.... now... Qian is dead because of my carelessness I....I lost Qian...' those unsaid words lingered in his mouth.

The girl sighed, sitting next to him. "Okay, I'm sorry for touc....."

Fan Xui snorted slightly, stopping him mid-sentence.

"Sorry? Sorry doesn't cut it. You killed Qian. I can still hear his painful screams in my mind. I swear when I can move I will just pop your head off your neck!"

He lunged at her, but his useless body would not cooperate, nor would his measly electric powers.

"Qian Wen is dead! What the hell! When! That can't be! He was not supposed to die!"

Hearing such sudden news, Yue could not handle it well. He knew that the future was changed, but he did not expect it to be this extent. Fan Xui lost his memory and Qian Wen was dead.

'Who will create the zombie virus detector? Who will identify the mutated wheat that will became the only source of food in the settlement? Who will cure this darn virus?!'

Without Qian Wen, everything seemed hopeless.

"You killed him. He was my only friend!!" Fan turned his head the other way, burrowing into the pillow. "You killed him..."

His voice seemed super sad.

Yue bit his bottom lips anxiously. 'Why am I the killer? Why.... why does he think that?'

"Fan, did you see Qian die?"

"I SAW HIM BURN!" he screamed.

"Okay.... I'm sorry.. I'm sorry."

The thudding footsteps outsides seem to increase. There was no time for idle talk.

"I know its sad. But we have to move on. We don't have much time before this whole hospital gets overrun with zombies."

"..."

"Fan Xui... I'm going to lift you. Please don't shock me."

"..." an electric shock flew up in the air. It was small, like a little shiny white snake. It did not seem to be that powerful as he had heard before.

"I'm a woman, so it's okay," he spoke in a coaxing tone.

Again, the only reply he got was that wordless glare.

"I'm taking that silence as your consent. Sorry, but not so sorry," Yue ran to his bedside and placed a hand under his legs and his torso. But as he was doing so, something got tangled up in his hands.

'What is that wire? Where the heck is it connected to?' he gently tugged at it.

"Hiss" Fan groaned out loud. Fine sweat covered his entire forehead.

"Shoot...that was an accident. I'm so, so sorry," Yue carefully walked over to the other side of the bed to investigate. To his surprise, he found a urine bag hanging there. "oh.... this is what I was pulling. Fan, I think you have a catheter attached,"

"A what now?"

"Catheter.... a urine tube." Yue whispered with an awkward smile.

Fan Xui glared at him deeply.

"I'm sorry, I didn't realize I was pulling at. It got tangled up in my legs and hands. That's why.... I'll stop talking..."

Yue gingerly detached the bag from bedside and placed it in Fan.

After which he ran to the attached restroom, found a few spare towels and swiftly tied it tightly around his legs. If he had to carry Fan out, his hands will not be of use. He won't be able to use his sword. Only his kicks will work. But he could not be assured that he won't be scratched or bit by those toddlers and baby zombies.

This was just a precaution.

Yue rushed out of the bathroom.

"I'm going to attempt to lift you again. Please cooperate..."

This time Fan did not move nor shock him.

He lifted him up in a princess carry along with the sheets wrapped around him and rushed out of the room.

The zombies were blindly running in the corridor. As soon as they exited the room, they spotted them.

"Shit..." the mad run began.

But this time, he had a big bundle of sour Fan Xui in his arms.
