Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse-Chapter 328 - Three Hundred and Twenty-Eight Chatting
Chapter 328: Chapter Three Hundred and Twenty-Eight Chatting
Lin Xiuyuan said they planned to watch “Daylight” today, a highly-rated suspense film, and they were going to start with the first episode.
Su Jin also showed great interest; ever since she had witnessed Lu Hao’s deductive abilities, she had become very interested in suspense and detective films. She wondered if anyone in the series would be as impressive as Lu Hao.
“This guy isn’t even handsome,”
As the show began, Su Jin commented to Lin Xiuyuan while watching the male lead in the opening credits.
“Your husband is already handsome, why should you care if he’s handsome or not? The ratings are good, that’s what matters,”
Lin Xiuyuan muttered as he tore open a bag of potato chips.
...
“What’s a suspense film?”
Nie Qing asked with interest, as he also was watching this genre for the first time.
Lu Guanhai didn’t quite know how to answer for a moment. Remembering his son’s profession, he replied, “It’s about catching bad guys.”
“Oh…”
Nie Qing felt like he kind of understood, but also didn’t, yet the feature film had already started, and he couldn’t help but be drawn into the storyline.
It starts off with a group of people surrounding a dead body?
This seems pretty interesting…
Outside the Wood Spirit Space, Lin Tianhui was preparing a simple noodle dish. There were some braised meats and eggs in the kitchen, and she picked a few leaves of greens hastened by Yin Chengtian from the garden. Although they didn’t compare to the water-rich vegetables from the space, when placed in a bowl with the chopped braised meat and a fried egg, they certainly made for a visually and taste-wise appealing meal.
“Auntie, is cooking skill hereditary? Not only does Su Jin cook deliciously, but yours is also so tasty,”
Liao Yifan couldn’t help but go for another big bowl.
“This is all ready-made stuff. When making noodles, the key is the broth. If it tastes good, the whole dish will be delicious!”
Lin Tianhui said with a smile. She had enriched the noodle sauce with enough braised juice, elevating the flavor to another level, such that even Xue Wanyi was too busy eating to talk.
Yin Chengtian ate the greens he hastened with a sense of accomplishment. Although they couldn’t compete with the vegetables from Su Jin’s space, if these were missing from the noodles, it would make one feel something was lacking.
They were all very tired today, but they also felt very fulfilled.
“Auntie, did Su Jin and the others really say that before they left?”
Guo Yang couldn’t help but ask again. It was already dark outside, suggesting that Su Jin and the others really weren’t coming back today. Lin Tianhui had said they mentioned this morning that they might not be able to return today, but he still felt worried.

It’s so unsafe to stay outside the base at night.
“They didn’t say exactly, just mentioned that the herbal medicine market is quite far, and they might not be able to return the same day, but there shouldn’t be major issues since there are many of them,”
Lin Tianhui comforted him. This assurance came from knowing that her family was safe; otherwise, she too would be so worried she couldn’t sleep.
“Auntie, don’t worry. If they don’t come back later, I’ll accompany you to sleep. They will definitely be fine,”
Liao Yifan said after sipping some noodle soup. Having Lin Tianhui sleep by herself in such a large house would surely be unsettling, especially since the family hadn’t returned. Although she didn’t verbalize her concern, Auntie must be quite worried, so Liao Yifan decided to stay the night and keep Lin Tianhui company.
“Yeah Auntie, if you’re scared, Xiao Tian and I can sleep in the living room,” Shi Jin added.
Lin Tianhui wanted to refuse, but seeing that everyone at the table was in favor of it, she felt a warm glow inside. These kids must be worried about her.
“Having Yifan with me is enough, you sleeping in the living room would be uncomfortable.”
Lin Tianhui said, thinking that later she would have to take the chance to announce in the Space that she wouldn’t be able to rest there tonight.
As it turns out, when two women who know each other well share a room, there are always endless topics to chat about.
Lin Tianhui almost showed up late for work the next morning because she and Liao Yifan had talked until three o’clock in the middle of the night, even though they had returned to their room to rest shortly after eight.
She had been worried that Liao Yifan wouldn’t adapt to the job, but after hearing about Liao Yifan’s “heroic deeds,” she couldn’t help but laugh until her stomach hurt.
On her first day as an instructor, Liao Yifan had sent several Level Two Power Element Ability Users who challenged her straight to the Base Hospital.
“I was wondering why today I saw Xiao Zhang treating a few guys with black eyes and swollen faces. I was thinking zombies wouldn’t go for the face, looks like they were beaten up by you,” Lin Tianhui said, laughing in her darkened room.
“Really auntie, they’re even slower learners than Qiqi. Their movements are full of flaws,” Liao Yifan said, her tone full of disdain, but Lin Tianhui could tell that Yifan was genuinely prepared to start teaching those people from the basics. It seemed she was quite suited to the job.
Walking in the Base Hospital, Lin Tianhui couldn’t help but smile thinking about her conversation with Liao Yifan and wondered when Guo Yang would be able to catch up to Yifan, this treasure.
Her colleagues at the hospital greeted Lin Tianhui with all due respect. Now, she was the Director of healers at the Base Hospital, so everyone called her Director Lin.
Just then, a thin woman suddenly ran out and grabbed Lin Tianhui’s wrist. She knelt on the ground, begging, “You’re Director Lin, right? Please, have mercy and save my daughter. I will do anything you ask!”
Lin Tianhui frowned at the woman kneeling beside her, who looked quite old and pitiable. But in the Apocalypse, pitiable people were everywhere, and she just felt bewildered.
Could it be that her daughter was about to die and urgently needed treatment from a healer?
Xiao Zhang also hurried out of the room, and seeing the woman clinging to Director Lin on the ground, he couldn’t help wanting to pull her away.
“No, no, if Director Lin doesn’t agree to save my daughter, I’ll kneel here until I die today!”
The woman’s determination made everyone believe that she was a pitiable mother desperate to save her daughter.
“Hello, where’s your daughter? Please take me to see her,” Lin Tianhui said.
“Yes, yes, yes, I knew you were a beautiful person with a good heart.”
Xiao Zhang wanted to say something, but the woman on the ground had already joyfully stood up and was pulling Lin Tianhui towards the consultation room.
In Xiao Zhang’s consultation room sat a girl with a shoulder injury, her clothes old and dirty, and her face awkward as she looked at the people coming in.
This… didn’t seem like a serious illness. Xiao Zhang should have been able to handle it, right?
The accompanying Xiao Zhang helplessly explained the situation to Lin Tianhui. The mother and daughter had only entered the Base today. The girl had a stab wound on her shoulder, and he was ready to treat it immediately, but apparently, the mother and daughter had no intention of paying the medical fee, claiming it was too expensive.
It was only when the woman overheard someone calling for Director Lin outside that she rushed to accost Lin Tianhui.
