Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse novel Chapter 27

Chapter 27: Suspicion

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

When Su Jin walked out of the dimension, feeling refreshed, Lu Hao had finished preparing the food. He had made three dishes and a soup. Although it was not as tasty as Lin Yunguo’s cooking, it was still very decent.

Su Jin did not even know that Lu Hao could cook. Then again, they had barely been married for a few days in the past life before she had to leave for work. After that, they were separated for a long time.

Lu Hao looked at Su Jin, whose mind had wandered halfway through the meal. He could not help but pinch her face.

“Hurry up and eat.”

Lu Hao pinched her again.

“Lu Hao, I suddenly have an idea,” Su Jin said as she ate the beer-braised duck.

“What is it?”

“Why don’t we keep some poultry in the dimension too? And some fish too. That way we get to keep up the supply.”

Su Jin only thought of that while she was looking at the meat in her bowl. There was meat to eat during the apocalypse too, but that tended to be meat from mutated animals. No matter how they tried to cook it, the meat was always hard as a rock and utterly unpleasant to eat.

“Alright, we’ll go buy some later.”

Lu Hao had no objections, of course. He wanted to keep his wife plump and happy.

After the meal, Lu Hao washed the dishes while Su Jin lounged on the couch, happily eating the desserts he had prepared for her. Just then, she heard his phone ring on the coffee table.

“Lu Hao, you got some messages on your phone,” she called toward the kitchen.

“Could you help me reply to them?” Lu Hao yelled back.

Did he have that much faith in her? Seemed like not all men thought of their phone as their private sanctuary.

Su Jin held a slice of apple with her index finger and her thumb, sliding her middle finger across his phone screen. It did not require a password…

Su Jin glanced at his WeChat and saw that there were 99+ unread messages… Did he usually leave them unread?

Su Jin could not stand that. Whenever she saw the red dot symbolizing an unread message on any app in her phone, she simply had to get rid of it. Lu Hao was the complete opposite. There had to be at least a hundred, if not a thousand unread messages in there. His WeChat straight-up said 99+…

She tapped on the first chat log in the list. It was a group called ‘Galaxy’s Strongest Unbeaten Supercops’, and there were eight members inside. The admin of the group was Yin Chengtian.

Su Jin entered the group chat and saw that the members were in the middle of a conversation there. With a swipe of her fingers, she scrolled through the entire chat history for the day.

Yin Chengtian: Captain, captain! Paging the captain.

Mai’zi: The captain didn’t reply at all last night. Do you think he’s ok?

Shi Jin: Shut up, don’t jinx him. Our captain is invincible, of course he’s fine.

Xiang Sanjin: …

Tian Yongyi: Maybe the captain just hasn’t seen the messages. Let’s wait a lil longer.

Guan Shouzhong: I hope he’s alright

Peng Dong: [waiting]

Yin Chengtian: The captain should be awake by now. He works out every morning.

Shi Jin: Should we go check on him at his place?

Lu Hao: I’m fine! I’m positively peachy rn~

Yin Chengtian: There he is!!!

Shi Jin: Something feels off

Xian Sanjin: …

Tian Yongyi: I’m glad you replied, in any case. We were all really worried about you

Guan Shouzhong: I knew the captain would be fine. Y’all were worried for nothing.

Peng Dong: [happy] [flower]

Lu Hao: I’m Su Jin. Captain Lu Hao is now washing dishes in the kitchen, so I’m replying for him~

!!!

Their stern, strict, serious Captain Lu was washing the dishes?

Yin Chengtian sprayed his water onto his phone screen, but he desperately wanted to reply so he had to wipe the screen hastily with his screen.

Yin Chengtian: Hi, Sis-in-law! Good morning!

Shi Jin: Good morning, Sis-in-law!

Mai’zi: Good morning, Sis-in-law!

Tian Yongyi: Good morning, Sis-in-law!

Guan Shouzhong: Good morning, Sis-in-law!

Xiang Sanjin: Good morning, Sis-in-law! Good morning, Sis-in-law! Good morning, Sis-in-law!

Peng Dong: Hi, Sis-in-law [good morning]

Lu Hao: Good morning, everyone.

Su Jin noticed that there was one more icon in the group that had not sent any messages yet. The user’s profile name was Lin Zhi…

It seemed like the others did not delete Lin Zhi from the group after what happened to him. They were probably quite the loyal group of guys.

After she left the ‘Galaxy’s Strongest Unbeaten Supercops’ group, Su Jin happened to see another unread message down the list. The sender’s name was Chen Xiarong.
