Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse - Chapter 146 - Chapter 146: Chapter 146 Plan

Chapter 146: Chapter 146 Plan
 

Sun Yixue was not very clear about Zhao Bin’s plan; she only knew that Zhao Bin had received news from an upper-level contact within the refuge that City West was going to establish a safe base.

When they were discussing the plan, they had specifically sent her and Liu Jiajin out of the room. Only after she had pleased Zhao Bin that evening did he reveal that she might become the second-in-command’s wife of the City West base.

This news excited her for several days. She was right; Zhao Bin was a man capable of great things. When that day really came, she would make sure Zheng Miaomiao suffered a fate worse than death.

The instant noodles were quickly ready, and the smell of the seasoning packet almost drove the men in the room crazy. It smelled so good~

Huddled in the corner, Liu Jiajin tried his best to reduce his presence, unsure if he would even get a sip of the noodle soup. He was hungry too; the feeling of an empty stomach was unbearable.

Carrying a small basin filled to the brim with instant noodles, Zhao Bin didn’t add any soup, fearing the basin would overflow if he did. Eating the noodles was the most important thing at the moment.

Seeing him do this, everyone eagerly followed suit.

Sun Yixue was squeezed to the outer edge. She couldn’t push her way to the center at all. Zhao Bin was preoccupied with his meal and didn’t spare her a glance. It was not until the pot was emptied of noodles that she managed to scoop up some noodle soup with some bits of instant noodle remnants left…

Liu Jiajin swallowed hard. Simply smelling the aroma felt like happiness.

He coughed a few times, trying to catch Sun Yixue’s attention. He did succeed. Sun Yixue gave him a glance, then expressionlessly resumed drinking her soup. She was struggling to fend for herself now and could not afford to care for him. If Zhao Bin got angry again, she wouldn’t be able to provide this much food again.

Liu Jiajin clenched his fists. The rations they were eating now had been collected when he and Sun Yixue were in the same team. Now, not only was she selling her body, she was also feeding their supplies to those bastards.

Those were his, his!

Those bastards, they all deserved to die! A vengeful glint appeared in Liu Jiajin’s eyes, but fearing it would be noticed, he lowered his head.

The instant noodle soup in the pot was also completely divided among the crowd. A man let out a satisfied belch and moved the pot aside. Sun Yixue felt a little sick, not knowing how long the pot had gone unwashed, yet she had just eaten from it…

Zhao Bin, too, had eaten his fill, the feeling of fullness causing him to burp loudly before he leaned in to kiss Sun Yixue’s face.

“Xueer is so nice. How much food do you have left in your space?” Zhao Bin whispered in Sun Yixue’s ear.

“Brother Zhao, there’s a little bit left, not much…” Sun Yixue didn’t dare to say that she only had a few packets of biscuits and some inedible supplies left in her space.

“Well, it won’t be many days now. Our plan should be happening soon,” Zhao Bin released Sun Yixue, laughing heartily. Who said this was the Apocalypse? This, this was their world! As long as one had a Special Ability, the world was theirs!

Sun Yixue turned her face away, disgustedly wiping off the saliva from her cheek. This man, who knows how many days it had been since he last brushed his teeth or bathed.

But conditions here didn’t permit it anyway. Forget bathing, even daily grooming was difficult. Every time she thought about asking the Water Element Ability User for some water, that person would look at her with malintent, so later she could only rely on wet wipes to clean herself.

That person, why hasn’t he come yet? When exactly was their plan going to start?

————————————————

At Dragon Leap Villa, Mrs. Su felt something was off these past few days, but couldn’t pinpoint what it was until she saw Liao Yifan. She then realized what it was; Liao Yifan and Guo Yang hadn’t been fighting for the past few days?

Strange, the two of them were never at peace before. Why were they so quiet now? Could they have had a fight and gotten angry with each other?

“Yifan, why have we seen so little of Guo Yang in the past few days?” Lin Tianhui asked, fishing for an answer.

“I don’t know, he seems all mysterious, always hurrying off to that germophobic doctor.”

Liao Yifan also didn’t know what Guo Yang was up to recently, though she was happy for the quiet, she did find it a bit boring these days.

The zombies within the villa complex weren’t enough for them to clear, and her chances to take action were diminishing because her “apprentice” Mao Qiqi could now handle things on her own.

Watching Mao Qiqi, who was still practising continuously in the yard, she noticed a fierce strength in every move. Yesterday, without giving any notice, Qiqi went on her own to clear a villa, though there were only four zombies inside, it was still too bold for such a young girl.

Such bravery must come from the sense of security her family gives her and the confidence in her own heart…

Indeed, Mao Qiqi was confident, because of her Mental Element Ability, she didn’t have to worry about zombies suddenly attacking her. Sometimes, she would stab the zombies in the head from behind without them even getting close to her.

Lu Hao leaned against the door, watching Mao Qiqi’s slicing and chopping with interest. She had the power now, but the coherence of her moves wasn’t very good, so he couldn’t help but step forward to give some pointers.

Mao Qiqi listened attentively, watching Lu Hao’s demonstration.

Only she knew why she learned so quickly, everything demonstrated before her was like seeing it twice. Like now, one was Lu Hao’s movements seen with her eyes, the other was Lu Hao’s actions in her mind; her spiritual power had simplified Lu Hao’s demo into a figure performing the actions alone, like the comic books she saw at her grandmother’s house when she was small.

“Got it?” Lu Hao asked.

Mao Qiqi nodded and started to repeat the moves Lu Hao had just shown, just that, a repetition.

The family was amazed at her memory, clapping and cheering continuously. Lu Hao smiled and turned to go inside to find his wife.

Su Jin was still lying in bed resting, not out of laziness, but because she realized this morning that her period had started…

The moment she discovered it, she inwardly wailed, how could she have forgotten about this? In the Apocalypse, getting your period was practically a disaster.

That’s why she didn’t join the villa cleaning task today. Being inconvenienced was one thing, but if the zombies all rushed towards her, even if others didn’t know the reason, she would feel extremely embarrassed.

“Does it still hurt?” Lu Hao reached under the covers and massaged Su Jin’s lower abdomen.

Su Jin shook her head; it had hurt a little in the morning, but now it was much better.

“Are all the zombies in the villa area cleared out?”

“Yep, there weren’t many zombies in this area to begin with, plus everyone is pretty strong,” Lu Hao said with a smile.

“Then, starting from tomorrow, shall we start clearing the zombies outside?”

Su Jin suggested, since these past few days, without Beast Cores to absorb, she had been using Ordinary Crystal Cores for the Space to absorb. So even though they killed zombies every day, Crystal Cores were still in short supply.

Ah, so poor, really want those Crystal Cores.
