Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse novel Chapter 208

Chapter 208 -208: Xiao Jin, Lend Me Some Money

Ban Xiaobo felt a little guilty about the number of Crystal Cores, as Captain Lu seemed to have a family to provide for and must also be running short on Crystal Cores.

“Captain Lu, don’t worry, just tell me how much you need!”

Ban Xiaobo patted his chest, promising.

Pfft…

Liang Jiuqing, overhearing their conversation, couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

Lu Hao short of Crystal Cores?!

That was probably the funniest joke she’d heard recently.

Lu Hao himself didn’t understand how Ban Xiaobo’s thought process had worked. Did his question sound like he was asking for a loan?

Gao Lei was speechless. Couldn’t Ban Xiaobo see? It was obvious that this man knew the people at the base’s gate, did he look like someone short of Crystal Cores?

Su Jin and the others laughed upon hearing this. She thought they were short on Crystal Cores, but it wasn’t to the point where they would borrow from someone who only had 200 of them.

The S Base User Manual stated that those who wanted to rent a place upon entering the base needed to register at the Housing Management Center on the right side of the base wall and pay a certain number of Crystal Cores.

Without saying anything more to Ban Xiaobo, Lu Hao went up to Su Jin and said, “Xiao Jin, lend me some money.”

Pfft…

Once again, Liang Jiuqing was taken aback. So, did Lu Hao need Su Jin’s permission every time he used Crystal Cores?

But she didn’t feel the slightest embarrassment for Lu Hao; instead, she thought how loving the two seemed, what was going on?!

Su Jin, holding her forehead, didn’t know how to respond to Lu Hao. Guessing what he intended to do, she could only offer an awkward smile and pull Lu Hao aside, saying, “I’ll go with you.”

“Dad, you guys go ahead and drive back. Lu Hao and I will be there shortly,” Su Jin then turned to her family, who had finished checking in, and spoke.

Su Xiangzhe and the others nodded, greeted Liang Jiuqing, and drove into the base.

So, Captain Lu’s group originally lived inside the base, Ban Xiaobo finally realized, coming to the realization belatedly.

It wasn’t until Lu Hao and Su Jin, leading them into the Housing Management Center, that Ban Xiaobo understood why Lu Hao had asked how much money they had.

Lu Hao wanted to help them!

Just now, Lu Hao and Su Jin had rented rooms for them and paid the rent for a full three months!

That was in the villa district, no less!

They, a bunch of poor wretches, were actually going to move into the highest-level villa district the moment they arrived!

Ban Xiaobo suddenly felt like kneeling; it was all thanks to the grace of Lu Hao and Su Jin. He really didn’t know what to say.

Gao Lei, Xu Chao, Tian Liao, and Ren Feipeng were also very moved. Just a moment ago, when Ban Xiaobo said he would go save Lu Hao’s vehicle, they had tried to stop him, never expecting that Lu Hao would thank them in such a way, with a whole 350 Crystal Cores!

With the little money they had, if they had really gone to rent a place to stay, they probably would have been left to “drink the northwest wind” for the rest of their days.

“Feipeng, I swear I will dig for Crystal Cores diligently from now on,” Xu Chao said, now deeply regretting that they had abandoned so many zombie bodies before.
