Apocalypse: My Sweetie Is Tough but Cute-Chapter 134 - 133: An Apocalyptic Life from Scratch (7)
Chapter 134 -133: An Apocalyptic Life from Scratch (7)
If one or two sentences go unheard, perhaps it’s because the listener isn’t thinking much of it.
However, when sentence after sentence is spoken out loud, and the person in question maintains an indifferent attitude, it’s no longer a matter of mere thoughtlessness—it’s a complete disdain to respond.
This silent contempt somehow provoked the other party.

“Young people these days really don’t know how to behave. The nation is in trouble, yet they don’t talk about doing something for the disaster area, not even caring properly. It’s a wonder where all their education went,” the thin middle-aged man who was the first to disapprove of Su Shu snorted coldly.
His wife, cautiously tugged at his sleeve and whispered, “Keep it down, will you? Aren’t you afraid of being overheard with such a loud voice?”
The woman clearly didn’t want her husband to cause trouble.
The man glared at his wife and raised his voice, “Quiet what? So what if she hears? I’ll say it louder; what times are these that one can still eat? Young people today just lack proper upbringing.”
His voice was so loud it disrupted others from watching TV, leading them to turn around and look behind. After a brief look of his righteous indignation, their gazes then turned to Su Shu, who was quietly sipping her soy milk.
“Let it be, she’s just a kid and doesn’t understand,” someone said, trying to soothe the middle-aged man, thinking to keep the peace.
As if he had found an ally, the man retorted, “I’m not interested in arguing with a woman, but it’s really hard to watch without saying something. Look at those people on TV, they’ve lost their lives, completely indifferent, and still eating happily. If you were in their place, could you swallow your food?”
This remark made everyone nearby feel a bit embarrassed.
Before anyone else could respond, he added on his own, “Anyway, I couldn’t eat, seeing those injured and bloody scenes feels terrible.”
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing how to respond to his blunt remarks.
Upon hearing this, Su Shu finally reacted. She gently put down her soy milk, turned her head, and looked towards him.
Some people noticed Su Shu looking over, and of course, the middle-aged man saw it too. His face was clearly full of contempt and scorn, his jaw clenched, ready to lecture the uncultured Su Shu at any moment.
Unfortunately, Su Shu had no intention of responding in kind. She was simply curious to see who could be so self-righteous.
The empty plates and bowls on the adjacent table indicated the man had already finished his breakfast, yet what right did he have to make such grand statements?
Some people are laughably pitiable.
After looking a couple of times, Su Shu withdrew her gaze and turned back around, picking up a napkin to wipe Xiao’ai’s mouth.
Complete disregard!
Cold disdain!
The man, feeling his face was slapped by the silent indifference, was red with anger, his expression dark as the rainy day outside the window.
Just as he was about to speak up.
Suddenly, from a distant corner, a crisp, low male voice unexpectedly rose.
“A grown man, if truly concerned about the disaster and its victims, should go out to rescue people. If unwilling to exert any effort, better to stay put and save your energy than making a fuss over women. What kind of capability is that?” the boy sneered coldly.
Surprised that someone actually spoke up for her, Su Shu raised her head to look at him.
He was directly opposite her, separated by seven or eight tables, indeed quite far from their side.
The boy was very young. Su Shu guessed he couldn’t be more than fifteen or sixteen at most. Despite his youthful face, he already showed the outline of future handsomeness.
However, the boy’s eyes were too cold—pitch-black orbs that narrowed with disdain as he looked at others, his lips curled up in a chilly sneer.
His whole person exuded an unwelcoming frostiness.
Su Shu slightly cocked her head, feeling somewhat astonished.
