Qin Lang's face grew increasingly grim: Yes, it's her private matter. What right does he have to interfere in other people's private affairs?

He lowered his head and stopped speaking.

"Qin Lang." Bai Yan's smile was somewhat cold: "I don't like pestering. My attitude is already very clear, and I understand your attitude as well."

"I will submit a report tomorrow. Since you don't want to come, then we shouldn't see each other again."

After saying that, Bai Yan opened the car door and was about to get out, but before she could get out, the man next to her immediately stretched out his arm to stop her. Although the car was spacious, he still firmly occupied most of the space, looking at her with an aggressive gaze.

Bai Yan met his gaze without looking away.

Qin Lang's gaze gradually shifted from assertive to somewhat aggrieved: "You haven't forgotten him at all. Are you just using me as a substitute?"

He still hadn't forgotten the look in her eyes that day.

Bai Yan's eyes showed a look of surprise: "Why would you think that? Why would I use you as a substitute? Whose substitute are you?"

"The person you like, when we were together, you were still reminiscing about your past with him, right?"

Bai Yan took a light breath. "The only person I've ever dated is Zhou Yunan. But I can tell you, the Bai Yan of the past liked Zhou Yunan, but now, I feel disgusted just looking at him."

"I have someone I like."

Qin Lang met her gaze and saw his own reflection in her bright eyes: "Who...is that?"

"Who did you say it was?" Bai Yan looked at him. "Qin Lang, we met many years ago. We did the same thing in the same scene. Don't you remember?"

Qin Lang was somewhat surprised: "Me? The person she was thinking about that day was him?"

“It’s you. Think carefully, try to remember.” Bai Yan looked at him. She wasn’t lying; it was just that the space and time were wrong.

Qin Lang couldn't remember anything. He tapped his head. He had no memory of her, but his heart told him that he must have seen her somewhere before!

Bai Yan glanced at him with a hint of disappointment: "Can't you remember? No wonder you didn't react at all when we first met. I thought you would remember, just like me..."

Qin Lang felt incredibly guilty; how could he have made such a mistake?

"I'm sorry, it's my fault. I forgot we've met before..." He was even jealous for no reason.

He grabbed her hand again, placing it nervously and guiltily against his chest: "Don't be angry. My heart remembers. So when we first met, it was beating just as fast as it is now."

Bai Yan glanced at him, then gently rested her head against his chest and whispered, "Let me hear what your heart has to say."

Qin Lang became even more nervous, and his hands stiffened.

Bai Yan simply curled her lips: her man, though occasionally throwing a tantrum, was easy to coax.

"What did it say?" Qin Lang asked.

"It said it likes me and will listen to me for the rest of its life, don't you agree?" Bai Yan looked up at him.

“Yes!” Qin Lang nodded immediately.

Bai Yan released his hand. "I'd like to have a candlelight dinner and some red wine. Is that alright now?"

Qin Lang immediately grabbed his phone in a flurry: "I'll order!"

...

After a belated candlelight dinner, the two began dating amidst their busy work schedules.

During this time, Zhou Yunan called Bai Yan multiple times. Although Bai Yan did not accept his date, she did not officially announce their breakup.

Qin Lang was very high-profile when he was in love. Bai Yan was busy with work, so the bodyguard captain took on the role of making love-filled lunch boxes every day. He not only ensured her safety but also took good care of her daily life.

The people at the research institute naturally knew that Bai Yan and Captain Qin had confirmed their relationship, and that Zhou Yunan was a scumbag, which they also knew from Lin Rou's voice message.

"Dean, he's still harassing you, why don't you just tell him to get lost?" Xiao Chen was also a little puzzled.

Bai Yan said, "He cheated on me, so of course he has to pay the price."

Zhou Yunan completely deceived the original owner, causing the Bai family to go bankrupt, causing Bai Yi'an to fall to his death, and colluding with Lin Rou to cause the original owner's tragic death.

Even without the apocalypse, she would legally, reasonably, and justifiably bankrupt Zhou Yunan, ruining his life in the next.

Xiao Chen shuddered as he looked at the dean's coldly curled lips: he had a feeling that people who offended the dean would suffer a terrible fate.

"By the way, Dean, there's real surveillance footage over there. Do you want to see what Lin Rou has been up to lately?" The government's involvement is definitely different from their lab's; they have all the video and audio recordings!

Lin Rou was practically invisible!

Bai Yan shook her head. She could predict all of Lin Rou's actions. She had been paying attention to her before because she wanted to get useful information to gain their trust. Now there was no need to watch anymore.

"Then, Dean, shall I go and take a look?" Xiao Chen asked.

"Go ahead." Bai Yan turned around and went back to her experiments.

Xiao Chen immediately got up and went into the conference room. Sure enough, there were already quite a few people in the conference room. Everyone was full of curiosity about Lin Rou, this 'reborn woman'.

...

Lin Rou sold some of the small gifts Zhou Yunan had given her, earning only about 100,000 yuan, which was barely enough to make ends meet in Lin Rou's eyes.

She doesn't have the ability to acquire a large amount of funds in a short period of time. Her superpower is only at a basic level. There are no zombies yet, so she can't upgrade it using zombie crystal cores. It's okay for setting up a surveillance camera, but it's not enough for actual robbery and murder.

Moreover, she didn't want to attract attention before the apocalypse.

She had previously bought the bracelet with a loan, so she simply continued to look for ways to get loans online. Being just a college student, she didn't have sufficient bank statements and couldn't borrow much money from banks, so she started using various online platforms to obtain loans.
