“It’s not entirely true,” Ji Zan said slowly. “At least I won’t let others control me.

I don’t want to follow in my parents’ footsteps anymore.”

Fu Shinan thought to herself, Other than your underage nephew, all your relatives are dead. Who can control you? ” I’m guessing Mr. Ji will definitely like the kind that’s delicate and sweet,” she said casually.” Usually, an overbearing CEO will be matched with a delicate and soft wife.”That’s how it’s portrayed on TV, where the domineering CEO loses his mind when he meets a delicate little flower.

Ji Zan seemed to be amused by her and immediately said, “I’m guessing that Miss Fu must like those refined scumbags with glasses.”

Fu Shinan burst out laughing. “Why?”

” That’s what they do on TV,” Ji Zan said.” Powerful women like the contrast.”

Fu Shinan couldn’t help but sigh. “It’s a pity that I won’t be able to watch television anymore from now on. I won’t get to see a handsome man who’s a refined scumbag.”

The conversation became awkward because it reminded everyone once again that the apocalypse had arrived. They could never go back to their previous lives. Finally, Ji Zan broke the silence, “What are your thoughts about the future?”

Fu Shinan suddenly felt a moment of confusion. She had always wanted to come to An Town to find her benefactor, but it turned out that Chen Zhou wasn’t the one. Then there was the heavy rain, and An Town fell as well. Although she knew that her ultimate goal was simply to survive, she was now uncertain about how to live. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have easily considered parting ways with Ji Zan and his group. “I’m not sure either,” she replied.

Thinking of Chen Zhou who was torn to pieces, Fu Shinan suddenly raised her head. “Mr. Ji, do you know the tattoo on Chen Zhou’s hand…” However, before she could finish her sentence, Ji Zan covered her mouth.”Shh, someone’s coming.”

Fu Shinan widened her eyes in an instant. What kind of ears did he have? How come she didn’t hear anything?

Ji Zan gestured to her and slowly released his hand.

Fu Shinan immediately perked up her ears and listened carefully. This time she heard it too. It was the sound of a car engine, getting closer and closer.

Ji Zan had already picked up the iron rod from the table and silently approached the window.

Fu Shinan couldn’t help but feel uneasy. Sometimes, people were scarier than zombies. So she even wished it was zombies because, at least, they lacked intelligence and wouldn’t plot against you from behind.

As the sound of the car door opening reached their ears, voices could be heard from outside.

“Boss, there’s no one here. Let’s stay here for the night. We can’t continue on the road. It’s been too strange and dangerous today.”

“Damn it, we have no choice. Yu Jian, you and Da Liu stay outside and keep watch.”

“Brother Ba…What about me?”

“You… of course, you’ll come in with me…” There was a crisp sound of a slap in the dark night, very distinct.

Fu Shinan guessed that it might have landed on someone’s buttocks because she heard the woman giggle and say, “Hey, you hurt me with that… meanie…”

Wang Tianba smiled lewdly.” It hurts now. I’ll give you something even fiercer later. ”

Then, the door closed. The two of them must have entered the house.

Fu Shinan clenched her teeth. It seemed like they were destined to cross paths again. She had actually encountered Shi Chaner and Yu Jian. Was this an age-old curse( How were they still alive(

Ji Zan also recognized the voice as Wang Tianba from the Di Zang Community. They had also arrived here? Did Anning Town really fall?

Fu Shinan approached the window and spoke in a low voice, “The one speaking earlier should be Wang Tianba.”

Ji Zan also lowered his voice, “You’re right. If Anning Town hadn’t encountered any trouble, Wang Tianba wouldn’t have shown up.”

“It wasn’t me who guessed it. It was Cao Yong,” Fu Shinan whispered, “I suspect that Cao Yong might have actually gained some kind of precognitive ability. If that’s the case, others might have it too.”

Ji Zan turned to Fu Shinan, his eyes gleaming with curiosity, “Do you have it

Fu Shinan hurriedly replied, “No, I don’t.” She wanted to mention the electricity she saw on MO Cheng’s hand, but she held back. She didn’t want to cause trouble for herself without knowing the circumstances. Besides, she felt that her ability was not like a superpower but more like a unique skill given to her by this world, setting her apart from others.

“I just think that the zombies have evolved, and Chang’an caught a fish with long legs in the water… Since these things can mutate, why can’t humans mutate too? Don’t you think so?”

Ji Zan was surprised, “Really? A fish with long legs?” He had been busy before and had no idea about this.

Fu Shinan shrugged, “If you don’t believe me, you can ask Chang’an. He was the one who discovered it.”

Ji Zan pondered for a moment and said, “Could it be because of that rain?”
