Reborn in the Apocalypse: A Commoner's Survival Log

Now that the white mist is gone, it means that the two spaces are connected. Can they go directly there?

I wonder if he can control the space here to teleport...

After thinking it over, Zhou Yang decided to put it into practice immediately.

So he grabbed Shen Zechuan's hand in return, activated his mind, and in the blink of an eye, they arrived in front of the wooden building.

Shen Zechuan was momentarily confused by the unexpected change in the scene. He turned his head and saw the smile in Zhou Yang's eyes, then he realized what was happening and began to guess.

"Is this your space?"

Zhou Yang, remembering that Shen Zechuan had just addressed him as "senior," chuckled and teased back, "What do you think, junior?"

"Cough cough!" Upon hearing this, Shen Zechuan choked on his own saliva. "Uh, slip of the tongue! Slip of the tongue! But, our spaces are actually connected, why?"

"I don't know either, but I also have a jade pendant like this, which is a family heirloom."

Zhou Yang couldn't figure out the reason either. Looking at the jade pendant that belonged to Shen Zechuan in his hand, he casually summoned his own pendant from the small building and compared them together.

“Yours looks just like mine, except the patterns are different, and when put together, they look like a round jade pendant.”

As Shen Zechuan spoke, he took the jade pendant from Zhou Yang's hand and pieced it together perfectly, forming a circle.

The moment they were combined, both halves of the jade emitted light simultaneously, and the dazzling white light caused Zhou Yang and Shen Zechuan to unconsciously close their eyes.

When they opened their eyes again, the light had already subsided, but the two pieces of jade had undergone a qualitative change. They were now crystal clear, pure white and flawless, clearly the finest mutton fat jade.

"..." Zhou Yang and Shen Zechuan were both so shocked that they couldn't speak.

This scene was far beyond their comprehension and could not be explained by science; of course, space itself was also not very scientific.

The two examined the jade for a long time but couldn't discern anything from it, so they had Zhou Yang put it away again.

"So this is what you've been referring to as your spatial ability? But can it really be upgraded?"

"Cough, it doesn't need an upgrade... You won't be disappointed that I've been pretending to be a space ability user all this time?"

"What's there to be disappointed about? It's fine if we don't upgrade, that way you won't have to worry about upgrading. But we should just keep this to ourselves. I'll cover for you from now on!" Shen Zechuan said nonchalantly.

Hearing this, Zhou Yang was genuinely touched. Before he could even finish feeling touched, Shen Zechuan took his hand and said, "It's getting late, why don't we go out and go to sleep first?"

Today is my first day as a full-time employee, and I can't waste this precious time, no matter how good the opportunity is.

"Okay. Let's go out first." Zhou Yang thought to herself that she was sleepy, so she simply went out.

Shen Zechuan stood there stunned for several seconds before realizing that his wife had dragged him down, and he had to use his mind to get out again.

Zhou Yang, as was his habit, went out on his own before realizing he had forgotten to bring Shen Zechuan with him. However, since Shen Zechuan was now the master of the other half of the space and could come out on his own, he didn't think much of it.

Sure enough, Shen Zechuan came out by himself in less than two seconds, looking at him with a resentful expression: "Could you take me with you next time?"

"Okay, okay, I'll remember next time!"

Zhou Yang nodded, then picked up his watch and looked at it. Only a few minutes had passed; it seemed that the flow of time inside and outside hadn't changed. However, he was exhausted and needed to sleep first. He would talk to Shen Zechuan about the rest tomorrow.

"Let's go to sleep, I'm so sleepy." Zhou Yang put down his watch, yawned, and then collapsed onto the bed to sleep.

Shen Zechuan was very eager to get his hands on the benefits for his first day as a full-time employee. Zhou Yang couldn't resist and had no choice but to go along with it.

Soon, only the two of them were breathing heavily in the room. After a long while, they calmed down and then fell asleep in each other's arms.

However, since it wasn't his own home and the soundproofing wasn't very good, Shen Zechuan restrained himself and didn't go all the way. He thought he would definitely find an opportunity to get intimate with Zhou Yang in the space later.

The next day, when the two woke up, the sun was already high in the sky.

Xu Qingtang and He Shanshan had already left for work, and Yu Jing and Xu Zhiyi had also finished breakfast and were chatting on the sofa.

Seeing the two finally emerge from the room, Xu Zhiyi immediately looked over teasingly: "Oh, you're up really early. If you had come any later, you could have had lunch."

"Don't talk nonsense. They're tired, it's normal for them to sleep more. If you hadn't been woken up by Shanshan and the others leaving for work, you'd still be asleep right now!"

Yu Jing patted Xu Zhiyi on the head before looking at Zhou Yang and the other person: "There are two bowls of porridge left on the table for you. Have some with the pickled vegetables to fill your stomach. I won't make lunch for a while."

"Row."

Zhou Yang and the other person nodded and sat down at the table. Each of them took a bowl of porridge, poured some pickled vegetables into it, and began to eat heartily.

On a day like this, with temperatures around 30 degrees Celsius, a bowl of cooled congee is just so comforting.

After breakfast, the two of them didn't call Yu Jing. They took their bowls to the kitchen, washed them, and put them away. Then they sat down on the sofa and started chatting about everyday things.

Yu Jing also told Zhou Yang a lot of embarrassing stories about Shen Zechuan when he was a child, and showed him old photos that she had managed to save with great difficulty.

Zhou Yang also saw a photo of Shen Zechuan wearing open-crotch pants when he was a child, as well as a photo of Shen's mother when she was young. She was indeed a gentle and beautiful woman, which explains why Shen's scumbag father had wicked thoughts when he saw Shen's mother back then.

"It's a pity there are no cameras anymore, and no photo studios to develop photos, otherwise I would have liked to take a picture of you and put it in," Yu Jing said with a smile, looking at Zhou Yang.

Zhou Yang smiled nonchalantly: "It's okay, maybe there will be another opportunity in the future."

Time always flies when you're chatting, and before you know it, it's lunchtime.

Yu Jing remained the head chef, while Zhou Yang and the other two assisted her.

A professional chef's cooking is truly different. They pay attention to different knife skills, procedures, heat control, and the order in which seasonings are added. Even though it's the same dish, it tastes much better when cooked this way.

Even Zhou Yang, who was used to cooking, couldn't help but admire him and admitted that he couldn't compare.

There were four people, and this time we made two meat dishes, two vegetable dishes, and a soup.

I was eating when someone knocked on the door.

Just as Yu Jing was about to get up subconsciously, Xu Zhiyi stopped her and took the initiative to get up and go to the door to check.

Looking through the peephole, Xu Zhiyi saw three soldiers outside. He assumed they were sent by Yan Fei's family and opened the door for them.

Are you looking for me?

The three soldiers compared the black and white photos in their hands and shook their heads: "We're not looking for you, we're looking for Shen Zechuan. Is he inside? Could you please ask him to come out for a moment?"

Xu Zhiyi glanced at the photo of Shen Zechuan printed on the paper, and immediately understood that these three must have been sent by the Shen family. His face darkened.

"Shen Weifeng sent you? Is this how you find your own son? You can just send a few random people? If you want to find someone, let him come himself!"

Upon hearing this, the leading soldier immediately glared at him and said, "How dare you! Do you think you can call Commander Shen by his name? If you dare utter another word, I'll kill you!"

"Heh, then you try! You think you can kill me with just a bunch of level 2 weaklings?!"

Hearing this, Xu Zhiyi, who was already seething with anger, suddenly felt like he couldn't contain himself any longer and wished he could kill these three lackeys as a sacrifice to the heavens.

"You..." A soldier behind him opened his mouth and tried to rush forward, but was stopped by the leader in front.

Seeing that Xu Zhiyi hadn't returned from the doorway for a long time, Shen Zechuan followed him out to take a look and immediately witnessed this tense scene.

"What's wrong? Have someone from the Yan family arrived?"

Upon seeing Shen Zechuan emerge, the leading soldier immediately recognized him and snapped to attention, saying, "Young Master, hello. We are guards under Commander Shen. We are here on Commander Shen's orders to request that you return home tonight for a family banquet. Commander Shen's residence is Villa No. 8 in Area A. We have already registered you and you may enter directly. We have delivered the message, but we have other important matters to attend to, so we will take our leave now!"

Without waiting for Shen Zechuan's reply, he left with his men. His attitude clearly indicated that he believed Shen Zechuan would not refuse.

Shen Zechuan was so angry he laughed.
