Rewriting My Fate in the Apocalypse-Chapter 169: Surprise at the Park

"Have there been any breakthroughs yet?" Lu Zhen asked his brother as soon as he sat down.

He found Lu Tao already seated in front of a computer with a drawing page filled with lines of all shapes on the screen. Indeed, for someone who had no background in graphic design, this was just a drawing filled with lines and shapes, but for those who understood, they could tell that something was taking shape.

Lu Zhen had some understanding when it came to computers. After all, his company had been expanding into the communication field though it had been premature when the apocalypse started, he still understood some basics.

That was why as soon as he saw the design on the computer he understood what it was in an instant.

"You are making coms?" Lu Zhen asked again before his brother could reply.

"Yes, they are easy to carry and hide in case of enemies getting involved. They are also highly portable. They are not bulky like mobile phones and you don’t need your hands to operate and hold them when using them. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

So, even in the middle of something like fighting, you can still communicate with others if need be." Lu Tao explained his reason for designing coms instead of mobiles.

It was a bit childish to think that a design for something as important as future communication was based on such reasons but Lu Zhen liked the design, so he wasn’t about to discourage his brother.

In fact, he praised him instead.

"You did a good job. Finish designing it and if you need something like the materials to create them or anything else, feel free to ask me for it. Don’t worry about anything else." Lu Zhen reassured his brother before leaving his room.

"Come out for breakfast first." He said on his way out.

Breakfast was as usual. The fast had a heavy breakfast before Leng Pan and her husband said goodbye to the others and went to change their clothes so that they could head out on their date.

Leng Pan didn’t dress up too much since their date was at the amusement park. Once they were done preparing, Lu Zhen took his wife downstairs and ushered her into a parked car at the entrance of their building.

This was not the usual car they drove, it was one of Lu Zhen’s luxury cars that had been sitting in his private garage in the underground area of the building.

It had been there even before the apocalypse when he used to live there to be close to Leng Pan. The car had finally come in handy and could be used to take his wife on a date.

In fact, even Lu Zhen himself had forgotten about this car, it was his assistant who had gone to get it, wiped it clean and drove it to the entrance. He was still the person who understood Lu Zhen the best.

With anticipation, Leng Pan got into the car, then Lu Zhen went to the other side of the driver’s seat and got in. He drove the car out of the community hoping that assistant Yao had done everything he had asked him to. He wanted his first date with his wife to go well.

He didn’t want to disappoint her, even when the world was ending.

When they drove into the wide open gates of the park, Leng Pan was surprised by how clean the place was. Moreover, she could see some stalls with snacks on them as if they were just waiting for her to go and take them.

She had not expected the place to be so well-kept. However, she felt that something was wrong. She couldn’t put her finger on it but she could tell that something wasn’t right.

However, at that moment, she was more interested in the facilities within the park that she didn’t have time to think about it.

If she had been a little more keen, she would have realised that the park was too clean. Also, there was not a single zombie in sight. That should have told her what was happening, but for the moment, all her thoughts were on having fun with her husband.

As it turned out, after assistant Yao finished setting everything up, he had gone back to prepare a car fit for a date for his boss then came back to the park to clear any zombies that may have wandered inside.

At that moment, he was still hiding at a distance in case his boss needed something. Lu Zhen had already detected him but said nothing. He wanted to make sure everything was fine before letting him go home.

He assumed that assistant Yao wanted to take his mother out that day and staying there just to keep the two company while on a date was a waste.

As they were completing a tour of the amusement park and Leng Park was debating which ride to take first, he had a peculiar feeling as if there was someone else there.

It wasn’t something she was unfamiliar with. She had experienced the same feeling once before when she was advancing in the bathroom with Lu Zhen that day. It was just that, that day she felt that it could be dangerous and she suppressed it.

She had not expected to experience the same thing here again. It was the same feeling as when she senses water molecules in the air, but this feeling was a little different.

That day when she was advancing and absorbing all the liquid in the atmosphere, she had realized that she could sense the blood flowing in Lu Zhen’s body. She had been worried that she might try to absorb it and injure him or worse, drain the blood in his body without knowing.

That was the reason she had cut off that connection and ignored it. However, after that day, the feeling had disappeared, but now she could feel it again.
