Title: A Fake Holy Mother in the Zombie Apocalypse
Translator: Little Bamboo Spirit
Chapter 25 - Threesome (1)
Bei Nuan now understood why he looked so neat and clean.
Although Ningcheng was a small city, with the current road congestion, their remaining hour was barely enough time to leave.
And yet, this big boss wanted to take a shower.
Bei Nuan hesitated. Should she drag them out of the city?
In the novel, no one was prepared for the apocalypse. After Lu Xingchi's team escaped City S, they went around everywhere in Ningcheng to buy food and other necessities.
Their departure in the novel was further hindered because Lu Xingch was driving Du Ruo's car, a sleek, flirty orange car. Its chassis was too low. The slightest difficulty in road conditions, and it was game over. That's why they switched to a jeep in Ningcheng, which delayed them quite a bit. By the time they were ready to leave, it was too late. The zombies had broken through the city's defense line.
Since the team didn't get out of the city in time, they had to fight their way through the zombies in the road. This was how they met the fourth member of the team.
Unlike in the novel, this Lu Xingchi was fully equipped and wasn't in a rush to leave.
Bei Nuan didn't find it too strange. #3 had already said that Lu Xingchi was different from the novel, so it was normal for there to be divergence.
Bei Nuan decided to listen to Lu Xingchi for now and observe the changes.
During this period of chaos, the hotel lobby was empty and the doorman and security guards were nowhere to be seen. There was only a pretty receptionist left. She was distracted with watching an online video of zombies attacking people on her phone.
Seeing Bei Nuan and the others, she put down her phone and forced herself to smile in greeting.
After checking in, Bei Nuan asked her, "Why haven't you left?"
"The manager said those of us on duty can't evacuate. We have to wait to see how the situation will unfold and wait for instruction from the head office." The receptionist's smile was like crying. "I can't take the rest of the day off either. Otherwise, I'll lose this month's bonus."
"Is your bonus more important than your life?" Bei Nuan frightened her. "We just came from City S. The zombies are the same as the ones in the movies. They'll bite any person they see. They've already reached the city's checkpoints. It won't be long before they rush into the city. Why are you still here working? Can you still get a bonus after becoming a zombie?"
Her words persuaded the receptionist. "My mom kept calling me just now to go back to my hometown in the country. My family has a house and land there. It's definitely better than staying in a city."
Bei Nuan agreed. "What are you waiting for? You should hurry up and leave."
The receptionist asked, "Why aren't you guys leaving?"
Bei Nuan solemnly answered, "We want to seize the last chance to enjoy life before the end of the world."
Lu Xingchi had booked the presidential suite. Her answer was reasonable.
The receptionist looked at Bei Nuan's beautiful face, then she looked at the two handsome and tall men behind her. She briefly contemplated why these three people would open a suite together, and it suddenly dawned on her.
"You're right. You should seize this time to enjoy life. I wish you three… um… a happy time."
The receptionist threw away the mouse. She took out her bag from the cabinet below. Without even changing her uniform, she ran away in heels.
Unsurprisingly, wacky laughter sounded in Bei Nuan's head soon after the clicking and clacking of the heels on the floor. The little green line for Holy Mother value went forward a little bit.
After watching the receptionist leave, Bei Nuan turned around and saw Lu Xingchi and Du Ruo's dumbfounded expressions.
"What's wrong?" Bei Nuan was baffled.
"Nothing," Lu Xingchi and Du Ruo answered in unison.
Bei Nuan suddenly realized what was wrong.
Looking at the receptionist's figure, Bei Nuan really wanted to call her back - wait a second. Miss, what were you thinking? Hey, you totally thought in the wrong direction!
