Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse novel Chapter 79

Chapter 79: Chapter Seventy-Nine: Jealousy

“This child, now when she sees those zombies outside, she’s completely unafraid. I really don’t know how she’s so brave,” Lin Tianhui said with a laugh. Although her words carried a hint of reproach, her tone was filled with praise.

Liao Yifan chatted with Lin Tianhui for a few more sentences. She really liked this elder, but noticing that Lin Tianhui seemed a bit tired after using her healing ability, she said, “Auntie, thank you. Let me help you rest for a while!”

“No need, no need, I’ll just lie down in our room,” Lin Tianhui declined. She really wanted to take this opportunity to go back to her room and rest in the space, knowing that one hour of rest in the space was mere minutes outside.

Liao Yifan didn’t insist any further but dragged Mao Qiqi away to talk on the side.

Lu Hao was somewhat surprised when he learned that Guo Yang had awakened a Space Element Ability, whereas Su Jin thought it was actually good. She had planned to reveal her own space ability when it couldn’t be kept secret in the group anymore. In the apocalypse, although Dual-Element Ability Users were rare, there were still a few. Even if she said she was a Wood Element and Space Element Ability User, it wouldn’t be too suspicious.

Now that Guo Yang also had a Space Element Ability, it wouldn’t seem quite as mysterious to everyone else.

Guo Yang, however, was quite shocked. He hadn’t expected his little sister to also have a Space Element Ability and to be a Dual-Element User of wood and space at that. Lucky for him, he hadn’t acted too smug earlier.

Since Su Jin’s grandparents no longer had to sleep outside, the family decided to vacate the two of them from their room. The grandparents’ room was large and even connected to a small living room, so the family turned these two rooms into a suite for Guo Yang, Xue Wanyi, Yin Chengtian, and Shi Jin to live in.

Su Jin then cleared out the original storeroom, taking out a bed from her space that she had kept from when she last moved, and placed it in there.

Liao Yifan didn’t know what to say, never expecting Captain Lu’s wife to be so nice—she even specially fetched a set of pink bedding, a bedside table, decorations, and more. Suddenly, the storeroom transformed into a girly bedroom.

Looking at Liao Yifan chattering non-stop with Su Jin, the men were somewhat incredulous. Liao Yifan had never had any female friends around her, but these two seemed to hit it off immediately.

…

That evening, Lu Hao held Su Jin’s slim waist and asked a question that had been pent up for a long time.

“You know Lian Jiyue.”

His tone wasn’t questioning, but affirmative. Su Jin couldn’t help but worry about her future days; this man was too smart. How would she keep her little secrets in the future?

“I do, but that was in a past life,” Su Jin began to tell Lu Hao about her connection with Lian Jiyue.

It turned out she had met Lian Jiyue on a mission. At that time, Lian Jiyue was in a pitiful state, seeming to have suffered a significant injury, not just physically. It took almost a month after meeting him for Su Jin to learn that he could talk, with no idea what had struck him to end up in that way.
