Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Fu Shinan laughed because Man Yu’s interruption had momentarily caused her to overlook Wei Xinyi’s ability. However, she was also curious about how Fu Gui explained it.
Wei Xinyi immediately got enthusiastic and repeated the story for Fu Shinan.
Man Yu didn’t expect that Fu Gui, this little dog, could explain things so clearly. It seemed that this Golden Retriever was quite intelligent. Especially when she heard about Ji Zan carrying Xiao Changan and appearing as a hero, Man Yu couldn’t help but get excited and thought about writing it down. The love story between the dominant CEO and the charming doctor was unfolding right before her eyes!
As night fell, to avoid attracting a zombie horde, Fu Shinan quickly urged everyone into the supply warehouse.
Ji Zan was sitting next to Xiao Chang’an and Nana, watching the two children play. He couldn’t help but think about what was ahead as they were heading to Lingqu Mountain. He wondered if there would be any more leisurely moments like this. When he saw Fu Shinan and the others coming in, he stood up and said, “Fu Shinan, wait a minute, I want to talk to you.”
Man Yu immediately nudged Fu Shinan with her elbow, then, pulling Shui Ling’er and Wei Xinyi, entered the warehouse with an obscene grin.
Fu Shinan felt embarrassed because of Man Yu’s teasing. She hadn’t thought it was a big deal, but Man Yu had a way of making things awkward. She couldn’t help but cough and asked, “What’s up?”
Ji Zan stepped outside and gestured for Fu Shinan to join him.
The two of them stood outside, feeling the gentle breeze. It could have been a wonderful night if it weren’t for the zombies.
“So, what’s on your mind?” Fu Shinan greedily inhaled the rare cool air and asked again.
Ji Zan paused for a moment, and his intense gaze fixed on Fu Shinan. “I’ve decided to go to Lingqu Mountain.”
Fu Shinan was taken aback by his words. “1 know, didn’t we discuss this in the meeting?”
Ji Zan continued, “The journey ahead will be full of danger, perhaps even more perilous than what we’ve faced so far. Are you afraid?”
Fu Shinan laughed, “I thought you had something serious to say. Do you think we have any room for fear now? The apocalypse is upon us, and there’s no danger we haven’t faced.”
Ji Zan pondered for a moment and said, “What I mean is that this journey may not be as simple as you all think. It won’t be like just moving forward. Perhaps when we arrive, it won’t be the paradise we imagine. We will have to deal with more than just zombies, there will be other people.”
Fu Shinan raised her eyebrows, her expression turning serious. “So you’re sure there are people at Lingqu Mountain? With the apocalyptic disasters, it’s hard to believe there are survivors.”
Ji Zan nodded. “Indeed, but Lingqu Mountain was different even before the apocalypse. Remember the madman who was obsessed with going to Lingqu Mountain? I had a run-in with that madman, and he might be from Lingqu Mountain. He may have been leading us there for some unknown purpose.”
Fu Shinan immediately furrowed her brows. “Why didn’t you say this earlier? So that madman might not have precognitive abilities! Knowing this, why do you still want to go?”
Ji Zan stared into the dark night and contemplated, “But Lingqu Mountain, compared to the devastated cities, is indeed a better place for survival. It’s filled with weapons, clothes, and various food reserves. We have no better options, and instead of taking chances somewhere else, it’s better to give it a try.”
Fu Shinan understood his perspective. Ji Zan was afraid that his decision might put everyone in unnecessary danger, possibly leading to their deaths on the road. She smiled and said, “You said it yourself, there’s no better option. Compared to an unknown place, Lingqu Mountain is the best choice. Besides, staying in Anning Town, there’s no guarantee that we’ll survive. The town is in ruins, and you’ve seen what it’s like here. Other cities may not be any better. In the end, it’s a matter of life and death. Why not take the risk?”
This assurance put Ji Zan at ease. Fu Shinan was indeed a great person to talk to, always making him feel calm. “You’re right. Lingqu Mountain might truly become humanity’s last fortress.”
Fu Shinan shrugged. “Let’s hope so.”
The two of them discussed their departure plans for a while longer before returning to the supply warehouse as the night grew darker. Perhaps it was a hint of kindness from the heavens, but for the first time in a long while, everyone had a peaceful night’s rest without any zombie attacks. Although they didn’t have proper bedding, they managed to get a good night’s sleep..
