Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse novel Chapter 218

Chapter 218: Chapter 218: Lu Hao’s Dream

That night, Lu Hao had a dream, a dream so real it furrowed his brows in his sleep.

In the dream, Su Jin’s lifeless body lay in his arms. He stared blankly at the small wife he had searched for two years. Her hands were bound by iron chains, her face swollen, with tracks of tears having made their way down her cheeks…

Who? Who did this to her?!

He scanned the people around, his target clear, and charged at one of them.

“Brother Lu, I… I didn’t know who she was. She suddenly barged in like a madwoman, and I thought she was about to turn into a zombie… Ah, Brother Lu, let go, I’m telling the truth, the truth!”

Chen Xiarong’s neck was being squeezed by Lu Hao, who lifted her off the ground.

“Was it you?” Tears had begun to well up in Lu Hao’s eyes.

How dare she?

How dare she?!

“Cough cough, it wasn’t me, really, she must have had the Zombie Virus in her, you can check if you don’t believe me”

Chen Xiarong’s face had turned a deep red, feeling as if she was on the brink of death.

“You think I’m blind?! Where did those needle marks on her arm come from?” The veins on Lu Hao’s arms stood out angrily.

Apart from Chen Xiarong, no one else present had the authority to open the lab door!

Along with her desperate attempts at defending herself just now, Lu Hao had concluded that the killer of Su Jin was this woman!

“Ah ha, ha, Brother Lu, I like you, she’s not worthy”

Chen Xiarong managed to utter these words, knowing her poor cover-up could never escape Lu Hao’s scrutiny, she simply admitted it, hoping Lu Hao could let her off for the feelings she had harbored for so long, maybe even forgive her.

Upon hearing this, Lu Hao’s arm trembled with rage.

It was her, why, why!

By that point, Chen Xiarong had been choked to death by him. He didn’t spare her another glance, but instead collapsed beside Su Jin’s body, his soul seemingly lost.

The people inside the room were so frightened they dared not take another breath, trying their best to seem non-existent.

When Lu Hao looked up again, his eyes had turned blood red. He looked at the people present and said, “Why didn’t you stop her? Or did you even help her?!” frёewebnoѵēl.com

“Captain Lu, it was Chen Xiarong she…” A man’s words were cut short halfway when a knife in Lu Hao’s hand slashed his throat.

Blood splattered everywhere.

With an expressionless face, Lu Hao turned to the other people present. Ignoring their pleas, he slowly walked over to them.

“You all deserve to die.”

He didn’t use his Special Ability but with the knife in his hand, killed the dozen or so people present.

He picked up Su Jin’s body from the ground, behind him a river of blood flowed.

Before the Apocalypse, he hadn’t spent much time with Su Jin. He thought that after so long, he had gradually forgotten many things, but now, holding Su Jin, his mind was flooded with images of her from before.

“Son, I’ve found another match for you to meet,” Lu Guanhai’s voice held a plea.

“Not going, busy.”

“You always say no, but this time you have to go. She is the daughter of my comrade-in-arms Su Xiangzhe!” Seeing that gentle persuasion failed, Lu Guanhai switched tactics.

“Su Xiangzhe? Su Jin?”

Lu Hao remembered the small girl in bright red New Year’s clothes during the dead of winter, bright red and bright red. Her crisp voice wished uncle a happy new year, brother a happy new year…

“You still remember her, huh? You were only seven or eight years old then?”

“Mm, send me the time and place of the blind date.”

“Alrighty!”

Although Su Jin had grown up and was no longer the bright red little dumpling, the smile in her eyes and that crisp voice still made his heart feel joy.

He thought the two of them would be together for life, but then came the Apocalypse, and he lost her…

In his sleep, Lu Hao felt his heart being torn apart; he saw himself hunched over, kneeling at Su Jin’s grave, like a soulless husk. He knew at that moment he was already dead.

How could he have been just that one step too late?

How could he have kept such a person by his side?
