Xia Mufei was very happy, everyone in Uncle Lin’s family was warmer to him than the next, and the food in his bowl was almost piled up like a little mountain, and Auntie Su, Su Jin’s mother, kept urging him to eat more. Even Xia Ying, who usually has very low presence, also had his bowl filled up with food.

He felt that everyone in Uncle Lin’s family was just as enthusiastic as Uncle Lin himself. Moreover, he had met many friends present, Liang Jiuqing even invited him and Xia Ying to team up and go out to kill zombies.

Xia Ying’s chopsticks halted for a moment.

“I’m not going,”

he said.

He didn’t want to have any entanglements with the Liang family, and he didn’t even know what he was afraid of.

There was a moment of awkwardness in the air.

Fortunately, Huang Yunxiang brought over some pastries, saying they were freshly opened mung bean cakes from the kitchen.

“Let me tell you, these mung bean cakes are really delicious, everyone must try them,”

Nie Qing enthusiastically recommended them, saying that if everyone tried them, the Lin family’s grandfather wouldn’t keep complaining about them eating too little in the Space.

“Yes, yes, everyone eat, let’s all eat,”

Lin Tianzhen also said with a smile. She glanced at the silent Xia Ying, feeling that he was just too out of line with his remarks.

The atmosphere slowly eased, and everyone gradually forgot about the incident.

Lu Hao took several more looks at Xia Ying, his intuition telling him that this man was very strange.

The gathering made everyone who came to this place immensely satisfied with their meal. Ren Feipeng, seeing that Su Jin’s family seemed genuine and that everyone was talking happily, also started eating heartily.

This must have been the best meal they had since the Apocalypse, and he had no idea where Guo Yang and the others had gathered so much cooked food that it was even tastier than what they had eaten before the Apocalypse.

Xia Mufei was still very happy up until he was about to reach his home. Uncle Lin and Aunt Lin gave him a bag of corn cobs and a bag of marinated meat, along with two packs of Heart Talk Convenience Store’s best-selling pancakes, telling him to take them back to share with Xia Ying.

“There’s someone in the house,”

Xia Ying said.

“It might be someone new who moved in,” Xia Mufei sighed. These days the villa area had gradually become more crowded, and he was prepared for the possibility of new housemates, just not for it to happen so suddenly.

Xia Ying unconsciously walked in front of Xia Mufei.

As the door opened, a water ball shot straight toward them. Xia Ying, protecting Xia Mufei, dodged to the side, barely avoiding the sizable water ball.

“Yo, who are you guys?”

Han Xiao looked at the two young men who burst through the door, the one in front was quite good-looking indeed.

“Don’t, don’t misunderstand, we live here, roommates,” Xia Mufei said as he stepped out from behind Xia Ying.

“Oh, oh, so it’s the two of you. Nice to meet you, please take care of us,”

The three sized up Xia Ying and Xia Mufei. Today at the base housing management center they had requested to rent a villa alone; Crystal Cores were not a problem.

However, the staff there had said there were no more standalone villas available. There were new dormitory buildings outside the villa community with single and double rooms, but the three of them had still chosen the villa community.

In the end, the staff could only find them the villa with the lowest occupancy rate because that particular house had once seen several Mutated Zombies, so the Survivors afterwards would intentionally avoid it.

But Han Xiao and his group didn’t mind at all. Had a few Mutated Zombies come out? Wasn’t that even more interesting?

“I was hoping it would be two girls,”

Han Xiao said regretfully.

“Give me a break, where would you find single girls for us to pick up in the Apocalypse?”

Xia Ying didn’t say anything and walked straight upstairs. Seeing this, Xia Mufei also prepared to greet the others before going up.

“Hey, bro, what’s that in your hand?”

Ouyang Feizhou stared at the bags he was holding, with the top of a chubby corn cob poking out, looking extremely cute.

“It’s… what we bought,”

Xia Mufei couldn’t help but hug the item in his arms tighter.

“Bought it? Can you let us see?”

Han Xiao asked with a harmless look on his face.

“There’s a Heart Talk Convenience Store in the base, you’ll know if you go there tomorrow. That’s where I bought it,” Xia Mufei said this in one breath and then swiftly ran upstairs. This was a gift from Uncle Lin, and he had to protect it. Moreover, these three people seemed very suspicious to him.

“Do I look that fierce?” Han Xiao turned and asked.

“You look incredibly cool, dude. Speaking of which, can we really buy things here in the base? We’ve been eating compressed biscuits for days now,” complained Ye Shuai.

His real name was Ye Shuai, but today, upon entering the base, he whimsically wrote down Handsome Ye. He thought it was just a piece of paper; it shouldn’t really matter, right?

The lectures in the base had been very effective these days, not only igniting everyone’s enthusiasm but also teaching many how to kill a zombie, how to skillfully use their Special Abilities. Lecturers from different elements would attend, not only to understand their own Special Abilities but also to learn about the characteristics and weaknesses of other elements’ abilities, so they could complement each other when fighting zombies.

Except for…

“That guy is really going to attend the Wood Element lecture,” said a man, relishing in another’s misfortune.

“He is a Wood Element, of course, he’s going; otherwise, how will he grow vegetables?”

“You shouldn’t say that. The Wood Element girl who escorted our group of survivors back was pretty impressive,” said another.

“Cut it out, fake for sure. If a Wood Element had moves to kill zombies, I’d eat my bowl!”

“Hahaha, that’s what you said. Let’s go, let’s go and witness it ourselves,” they said.

Surprised as Su Jin, why had so many people come to today’s Wood Element lecture? This was completely opposite to what she had expected!

“Nervous?”

Lu Hao looked at Su Jin, who was stunned backstage, and asked.

“Not at all, I’m just… a bit surprised,” she replied.

Actually, she was still a little nervous inside, but it was too late to back out now.

“I believe in you, go for it.”

After saying this, Lu Hao kissed Su Jin on the forehead, causing her cheeks to turn red. She glared at Lu Hao for a moment and then rubbed her face, getting ready to begin today’s lecture.

Both Mr. and Mrs. Su, as well as the entire family, including Nie Qing and Lu Guanhai, were sitting down, ready to cheer for and support Su Jin. Nearby sat Liang Jiuqing and Zheng Miaomiao among others.

Anna, Zhang Xiaoai, and a few others were also stunned to see Su Jin stepping onto the stage.

It’s her!

The beautiful girl who saved them that day!

They had come to the lecture out of curiosity about the Wood Element and certainly hadn’t expected to see Su Jin!

“I’m so excited, Xiaoai,” Anna said while looking at Su Jin in front.

“Me too, me too, she’s actually today’s lecturer,” Xiaoai nudged Yin Qiu continuously with her elbow.

“Ouch, it hurts, stop nudging me,” complained Yin Qiu as he tried to move away.

Seeing Anna’s earnest expression, Jian Zongzheng felt a pang of jealousy. Why had she never looked at him with such intensity?

She used to proclaim her affection for him all the time.

Truly, a woman’s mouth can be a deceitful ghost.

Su Jin on the stage didn’t notice Anna and the others in the audience because there were simply too many people today, even more than the other elements’ lectures. She knew that a large part of the audience had come to laugh at her.
