Rebirth of the Last Days: Double Pets

Chapter 1 - First Meeting



Tang Ruo felt that she was trapped in a very deep and real dream. Although she had been sleeping longer and longer recently, she had never had such a real dream.
In the dream, she was wearing a long-tail dress that dragged on the ground. She was picked up from the ground and placed on a soft sofa, and then a group of people surrounded her and talked to her.

“Mom, there shouldn’t be any problem with this medicine, right? She just suffocated and still doesn’t seem to be conscious. She won’t die soon, will she?”

“It’s just some drugs. It’s okay. You helped her get through it safely just now. When you send her upstairs, just say she’s drunk. We can’t make any more mistakes at this critical moment.”

“Hurry, the time is almost up; take her out quickly, Feifei; you have to support your sister…”

Tang Ruo felt that she was completely out of control and was being manipulated by others. She stood up, walked out, and went on stage…

The stage was dazzling, with flowers and lights everywhere, and the screen behind seemed to be playing something, but she was dazed and couldn’t see clearly. She also couldn’t see who was in front of her and what he was doing to her.

It was hard for her to live for twenty years and then fall ill like a mountain. However, when she was lying in bed undergoing various chemotherapy treatments recently, she hadn’t seen such a big scene for a long time. So Tang Ruo felt that although this dream was real, it was still an illusion she had imagined.

When she was young, her parents divorced, her mother went abroad, and her father remarried, which resulted in her lying alone in a hospital bed with leukemia at the age of 20. Now, in retrospect, she had a real and profound dream that seemed like she was getting married, which also fulfilled a major concern in her life. Ask yourself, which girl doesn’t want to wear the most beautiful dress and hold an unforgettable wedding!

Even though this was just a dream, she couldn’t even see who the groom was in it.

After stepping down from the stage, Tang Ruo heard some voices in her daze.

“I didn’t expect it to pass so smoothly this time.”

“You hired a good MC. He knows how to read people’s expressions and can always change the subject. Also, the stage is well-built. It’s so far away from the guests, so they can’t see clearly among the lights and flowers.”

“I think Bai Qi is just too weird. He looks like he has a severe fever. When I put Tang Ruo’s hand into Bai Qi’s just now, it felt scalding hot.”

“Now that you mention it, I also find it strange. Didn’t I see that Bai Yan was also supported by someone…”

Bai Qi’s original name was Bai Yan. Since he was the seventh child in the Bai family, everyone just called him Bai Qi.

Tang Ruo closed her eyes slightly and fell asleep again. She was so tired; she had never felt her body so heavy before.

When she closed her eyes, she thought that death was waiting for her this time.

After all, Dr. Chen had not given her any chemotherapy recently, and even the head nurse looked at her with a hint of pity.

Although Tang Ruo felt that she was not pitiful, the doctors and nurses in the hospital felt that this little girl, who was abandoned by her parents and was seriously ill, was very worthy of sympathy.

Inevitably, everyone in the hospital would give Tang Ruo more care and concern.

When Tang Ruo fell asleep, someone moved her into a presidential suite upstairs in the hotel.

Also moving in was Bai Qi, who was wearing a tuxedo and had a high fever.

After being placed on the same bed, the two groups of people went out after socializing and exchanging pleasantries.

Today is a happy day, so naturally they won’t disturb the newlyweds too much.

The two people lying on the bed were both very sleepy, but they both felt uncomfortable wearing formal clothes like dresses while lying on the bed, so they started to take off their clothes and continued to sleep…

Bai Qi was also in a daze.

He remembered that he was too tired and got separated from his teammates while escaping a large wave of zombies. In the end, they squeezed into a very small gap and used up all their supernatural powers. When he closed his eyes drowsily, he dreamed of a strange scene three years ago.

The reason why it was strange was that he remembered that he had not been successfully engaged to the girl from the Tang family three years ago, but in this dream, that person actually stood up and finished the engagement party with him?
However, Bai Qi was really tired and soon fell into a dreamless coma again.

Time passes, and the sun rises in the east.

“ah–”

The terrified screams broke the tranquility of the early morning. Tang Ruo frowned. The sound was far away, but it just woke her up from sleepiness. Soon, she heard screams one after another.

What’s wrong? Why is there so much noise? Did something happen in the hospital? Tang Ruo opened her eyes groggily and saw a flesh-colored pillow. Did the hospital change the pillow? She reached out and touched it, and in an instant, Tang Ruo sat up.

Shit, it must be that she woke up in the wrong way.

This was clearly not a pillow, but a man’s chest. She even felt the abdominal muscles that he had developed from working out!
Damn it! She was actually sleeping in the same bed as a naked man!

Are hospital beds so scarce that they can’t be separated by gender?!
However, when Tang Ruo glanced at her hand, she was truly shocked.

White and slender, as delicate as jade.

Although her hand is also fair and slender, this is not her hand at all!
Her hand is infused every day, and it is already covered with pinholes and bruises. How can it be so perfect?

When Tang Ruo sat up, Bai Qi also woke up. He opened his eyes and met Tang Ruo’s panicked and tearful look after he sat up.

Facing each other.

Tang Ruo: “…”

Bai Qi: “…”

“Ah——” “Help——” Another burst of screams came from outside, breaking the silent eye contact.

Bai Qi’s eyes darkened. Regardless of why he woke up in an unknown hotel room with a woman by his side, the current environment outside was enough to show that the environment he was in was not safe enough.

After quickly standing up, Bai Qi moved to the peephole at the door of the room with incredible agility and looked out.

Outside, a zombie was gnawing at the neck of a hotel staff member. The hotel staff member put his hand up to block it and kicked the zombie, and he actually managed to kick the zombie away. Then he turned around and quickly ran to the other end of the corridor.

After being kicked to the ground, the zombie stood up again in a twisted posture and slowly chased in the direction the man fled.

Bai Qi frowned slightly.

Why did I wake up to find myself in such a strange place and the zombies’ abilities had regressed?
The zombie I just saw was not as fast or powerful as the ones I encountered before. It seemed like it had not evolved yet.

Not evolved…

Bai Qi’s brows furrowed even deeper. He left the peephole at the door, strode to the window of the room, and pulled open the heavy curtains with a rustle.

Then he was deeply shocked by the scene outside the window.

The flat ground downstairs has become a battlefield. Zombies pounce on normal people from time to time, people scream from time to time, and some ordinary people pick up pipes and sticks to resist.

The degree of preservation of these buildings and the scenes of fighting zombies do not look like they did three years after the apocalypse, but rather like they looked at the beginning of the apocalypse.

Humans don’t know how to use their superpowers yet, and zombies haven’t evolved yet. Everything is just beginning.
