Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse

Lin Cheng actually felt quite apologetic towards Xia Mufei, as he had forcefully turned away a girl who had come looking for Xia Mufei yesterday, only to find out later that she was Xia Mufei’s ex-girlfriend.

“Was that girl’s last name Fang?” Su Jin asked after hearing this.

“Yeah, Xiao Jin, how did you know?” Lin Cheng asked, puzzled.

“Good riddance, she is indeed Xia Mufei’s girlfriend,” Su Jin said.

Su Jin hadn’t expected Fang Jingfu to appear at that time.

“But Xia Mufei later said she was his ex-girlfriend,” Su Jin remarked.

Lin Cheng thought he might have driven away the wrong person.

“It’s definitely her, no mistake, but knowing her personality, she’s bound to go looking for Xia Mufei again,” Su Jin added.

Lin Cheng had driven her away once but that didn’t mean she wouldn’t keep clinging to Xia Mufei. To be honest, Su Jin didn’t want to ruin anyone’s relationship. If the two of them were really fated to get back together, she wouldn’t interfere anymore.

Su Jin then took out some sausages and handed them to Lu Hao, who was currently in the kitchen slicing stuff for the party.

Some cooked food, pickled products, and the addition of snacks and canned goods, when laid out on the table, actually looked quite impressive.

Fearing that everyone might not get enough to eat, Su Jin had also cooked a pot of rice in the villa’s kitchen, the fragrance of which caused Ban Xiaobo and the others, who had just entered the house, to light up with delight.

How long had it been since they had eaten rice?

Although they were not short of Crystal Cores, the base canteen provided food, but those dry coarse grain buns had almost made them nauseous, and now there was the aroma of rice at Su Jin’s place?!

Could it be they were so hungry they were hallucinating?

“Cough cough, restrain yourselves, restrain yourselves,” Ren Feipeng tried to calm his excited comrades, but they had already been lured by the aroma to the kitchen door.

Only Rong Yuan was standing by his side, curiously inspecting the place.

“Sorry about that, they… they’re too impolite,” Ren Feipeng said apologetically to Lin Xiuyuan, who had come to the door.

“No worries, no worries, a party is supposed to be casual, don’t worry about manners,” Lin Xiuyuan didn’t care about such trivialities. Anyway, they had more stuff in their space than they could eat, and all these were friends approved by his brother-in-law and Su Jin.

“So you are Rong Yuan?” Lin Xiuyuan’s eyes shone brightly as he looked at the tall young man. He had heard from Su Jin about the boy who might grow mechanical arms in the future, and he had been eager to see him, only to be scolded and sent back by Huang Yunxiang.

Seeing the puzzlement in Rong Yuan’s eyes, Lin Xiuyuan realized he had overdone it.

“Never mind, I just heard Su Jin mention you and was a bit curious. Feel free to sit down and eat whatever you like,” Lin Xiuyuan greeted them towards the sofa to sit down.

Ren Feipeng and Rong Yuan curiously observed their surroundings, noting the homey atmosphere, a complete change from the place where several men like them lived.

“Ji ji!” Local Tyrant Gold popped out from behind the sofa, curiously eyeing the two newcomers.

Although Ren Feipeng had seen this monkey before, it was the first time for Rong Yuan.

Rong Yuan poked its face with one hand, so small, so frail…

Local Tyrant Gold didn’t dodge away, and upon seeing Su Jin carrying food over, it affectionately climbed onto her arm.

“Local Tyrant Gold, don’t mess with the food on the table, okay? That’s for the guests,” Su Jin said while petting its fluffy head.

Rong Yuan looked at Su Jin in amazement, she was raising such a small, weak creature?

And she was even showing such a tender expression…

“Don’t be shy, just help yourself,”

Su Jin greeted the two of them, then handed a bag of Mao Qiqi’s favorite QQ candies to Rong Yuan.

Kids usually love candy, right?

Rong Yuan, who realized he was being treated like a child, hesitated for a moment but still accepted it and said thank you.

“Such a good boy~” Su Jin couldn’t resist praising.

“…”

Rong Yuan wanted to say he was not little anymore, but at that moment, there was a knock at the door.

Su Jin, with a smiling glance at the door, thought that Lin Cheng’s feeding over this period had been very effective. The current Xia Mufei was almost a different person compared to the Xia Mufei of her previous life.

“Hello, I was called by Uncle Lin…”

Xia Mufei was still a bit nervous when he saw Su Jin.

“Come on in, your uncle and the others are inside,”

Su Jin said with a smile, and even though Xia Ying stood behind him with a poker face, it didn’t affect Su Jin’s good mood at all.

Liang Jiuqing and Zheng Miaomiao also came at the invitation, and the already spacious living room became incredibly lively.

“Su Jin, is the Wood Element lecture taking place tomorrow?” Liang Jiuqing asked as he took a bite of a canned yellow peach.

Su Jin sighed and said, “Yeah, I don’t know if anyone will go.”

Su Jin felt that apart from the Wood Element Ability Users at the base, there probably wouldn’t be many who were willing to listen to a lecture on Wood Element.

“There will definitely be some. We’ll all go to support you,”

Zheng Miaomiao comforted her. She had never seen Su Jin’s Wood Element Ability and had only heard from Liang Jiuqing and the others that it was very powerful. Moreover, many of the survivors who had relocated lately said she was the strongest Wood Element Ability User, so she planned to go to tomorrow’s lecture as well to see what it was really like.

“Thank you,”

Said Su Jin, who wasn’t worried about attendance. It would be better if no one came, since she felt there wasn’t much to talk about regarding the Wood Element—the other elements would have peers showcasing their skills onstage.

As for the Wood Element… maybe she should drag Yin Chengtian up there too.

Ren Feipeng looked at Ban Xiaobo and the others with resignation. Who had assured him that it was okay to come just now? Now they were all holding bowls, eating their fill with greasy mouths.

Lin Cheng, Su Xiangzhe, Nie Qing, and Lu Guanhai weren’t actually hungry, but influenced by the bustling atmosphere, they couldn’t resist eating some snacks as well.

Rong Yuan cherished the braised egg by his side. He remembered how just a few days ago, he had fainted from hunger on the roadside, and even when the human trafficker picked him up, he was only given a bowl of watery porridge to drink. But now, as he watched Ban Xiaobo and the others eating with no regard for appearance, and everyone else in the house looking so harmonious and content, including Su Jin watching everyone with a beaming smile… was it like… feeding little animals?

He cocked his head, wondering why he had such a thought. How could Su Jin possibly be feeding little animals? She must be the gentlest person in the world.

Su Jin watched the group enjoying their food with a smile. Although she was eating too, her chopsticks barely moved, and at that moment, she really felt as if she was feeding them…

The grandparents in her Space would probably be very happy, after all, the braised meat and eggs they brought out today were camouflaged as snacks and dumped into the bowls. None of those who came went looking for the packets in the kitchen trash can.

“Su Jin, I’m really envious that you have a Space Element Ability User in your team who can store so much delicious food,” said Ban Xiaobo.

Guo Yang ate a piece of braised beef and forcibly calmed himself down, then pretended to be modest and replied, “This is the result of everyone’s efforts together, come on, let’s have a drink.”

“Speaking of which, where did you guys get this beer from? This stuff is practically a rarity now, right?” Gao Lei said, savoring another sip, having never felt beer tasted so good before.

“We were clearing out some villas, and they were having parties, so we collected it all,” Lu Hao explained.

“That good?!”

The others exclaimed one after another, thinking how great it would be to have a Space Element Ability User—like a mobile storage unit.
