Chapter 39 Power Outage, Internet Outage, Water Outage



Holding Bai Feiming in his arms, Jiang Wu lay on the bed and sighed, "Feifei, I didn't know this was so comfortable."

Bai Feiming nestled in Jiang Wu's arms and said softly, "Brother Wu, me too."

Jiang Wu hugged Bai Feiming tighter, chuckling softly, "Feifei, do you know, when I first saw you three years ago..."

Before he could finish speaking, the lights suddenly went out, plunging the room into darkness.

Did the power trip? Or...?

Jiang Wu got up, put on his trousers, and walked to the main switch at the door.

I turned on my phone's flashlight and checked; the circuit breaker hadn't tripped.

Jiang Wu sighed; the thing he had been worried about had still happened.

With no maintenance for a long time and so many days of torrential rain and strong acid rain, a power outage was inevitable, but Jiang Wu didn't expect it to happen so soon.

I glanced at my phone; the signal was gone too.

Jiang Wu went to the kitchen and turned on the tap, but there was no water.

There's no need to worry about drinking water for now; hundreds of cases of bottled water are neatly arranged at the base.

However, it will be difficult to take a proper shower in the future.

Although Jiang Wu had made preparations in advance, he filled all the basins and buckets he could find in the base with tap water.

There are also two small water storage buckets commonly used in rural areas, but the water can only last for a short time.

Jiang Wu then tried the gas stove.

Fortunately, there is still gas available for now, but I don't know if it's just leftover gas in the pipes.

Back in the dark, Jiang Wu hugged Bai Feiming again and comforted her, "Feifei, the power is out. It will become more and more inconvenient in the future, but don't worry, we have plenty of food and drink here."

Bai Feiming understood his intentions and said with a light laugh, "Brother Wu, it's the apocalypse now. Power outages and water shortages are normal. Don't think of me as too fragile. I stayed alone in a sales office with glass curtain walls for eleven days, surrounded by zombies, with no water or food, and I still survived."

Jiang Wu stroked Bai Feiming and said firmly, "Don't worry, even if I die, I will die before you. I will try my best to make your life easier for you and Xiaoyu."

He doesn't know how to use sweet words; he only knows how to express his feelings through actions.

He was actually very vengeful at heart, so he remembered every penny Li Dahua withheld from him.

On the other hand, he was an orphan since childhood, somewhat withdrawn, with few friends and no relatives.

Therefore, he will care especially about the people he considers to be his family.

For example, Su Ziyu, and Bai Feiming, with whom he had a deep relationship.

Bai Feiming propped herself up on one side and said, "Brother Wu, teach me how to kill zombies tomorrow. I used to study Sanda and Taekwondo, and I've also practiced dance and yoga for a long time, so my physical fitness is pretty good."

Jiang Wu was taken aback, then casually said, "I'll kill the zombies, you don't need to."

Bai Feiming leaned against Jiang Wu, listening to his heartbeat.

With her eyes closed, she whispered, "Brother Wu, it's the apocalypse. Even as a woman, I have to adapt to life in the apocalypse. Dealing with zombies is the most important lesson. Besides, I want to fight alongside you, so I won't be a burden to you. When you're fighting zombies, I can protect your back."

Jiang Wu was a little unsure of what to say. After a moment of silence, he sighed and said, "Okay, you can practice with me tomorrow. It will be very tough."

Bai Feiming murmured, "I'm not afraid of hardship, and with you by my side, I'm even less afraid of hardship. I don't want to see you fighting alone."

Jiang Wu felt the warmth in her words, and his heart trembled as if the softest string in his heart had been touched.

Don't you want me to fight this battle alone?

For the past thirty years, from the time he can remember, he has been struggling to live alone.

Even after being adopted by adoptive parents and having a younger sister named Su Ziyu, he remained the same.

He had gotten used to bearing everything alone.

But now, a woman says she wants to share these burdens with me...

Jiang Wu was speechless, he just held Bai Feiming tightly, his feelings complicated.

Bai Feiming stopped talking, enjoying the warmth and sense of security she felt in that moment.

The bedroom fell silent, save for the thunder and lightning and the raging storm outside the window.

Half an hour later, a flash of lightning ripped through the darkness, and Bai Feiming suddenly noticed something strange about Jiang Wu not far away.

Bai Feiming blushed and asked softly, "Brother Wu, were you not satisfied just now?"

Jiang Wu was now embarrassed. He coughed and said, "I've never done this before. This is my first time tonight, so I'm a little excited. It's okay, let's go to sleep. It's late."

Bai Feiming felt unwell, gritted her teeth, and slowly slid down.

!!

Jiang Wuren is numb.

This is the legendary...

That's incredibly awesome!!

......

A new day has begun.

Another day without seeing the sun.

Outside the window, there was still thunder and lightning, and a torrential downpour. Unlike the previous days, it seemed that fog had also rolled in, and the fog was so thick that visibility was very low.

After nearly ten days of torrential rain, Jiang Wu felt that the weather seemed to have become strange.

Xingcheng City has never experienced such a long period of torrential rain before.

I don't know if it will cause flooding.

"Could it be that this dark energy shockwave actually altered the climate of Earth?"

This thought popped into Jiang Wu's mind.

However, after glancing at Bai Feiming, who was still fast asleep on the bed, Jiang Wu regained his fighting spirit.

After working as a construction worker for so many years, I've now gotten to know the goddess of my dreams.

No matter how the weather changes, how zombies evolve, or how other species mutate.
