Chapter 282: Chapter 282: Old Friends Reunite

After talking about all this, they also brought up the topic of Lu Ruisheng’s origins. They had heard that Lu Ruisheng had found his biological parents. Although his mother was no longer alive, his father was extremely good to him and was even the Base Commander, so they were all happy for him.

It wasn’t because he had such a powerful backing, but because he hadn’t been abandoned or thrown away, which had been a knot in Lu Ruisheng’s heart. Now that he had untied that knot, everyone was happy for him.

Lu Ruisheng was now open about his family matters, and he roughly shared the details with them.

Chen Shaonan and the rest were quite astonished upon hearing this. Such dramatic familial conflicts, they had only seen in TV dramas or read about in novels. Now, looking at Lu Ruisheng in front of them, they couldn’t help thinking he indeed looked like a young master who had suffered at the hands of a wealthy family.

Of course, everyone thoroughly despised people like Huang Suzhen. Such a person was rotten to the core. Someone who could abandon their child was unforgivable, and it was a relief to know that she was dead.

After catching up on old times, Gu Pan spoke about her reason for coming: "We brought back a lot of food from the main base. It’s perfect that you’ve all come. Let’s gather tonight, it’s been so long since we’ve all dined together."

Duan Shumei recalled the days when they fought side by side: "It really has been a long time. I truly miss those days when we were all together."

"From now on, won’t we all be together again? We’ll face whatever disaster comes our way," said Gu Pan.

After more conversation, Gu Pan said to Chen Shaonan and Duan Shumei, "Teacher Chen, Teacher Duan, we’ll go say hello to Yang Jia and Chen Fengzhou first. They don’t know we’re back yet."

Chen Shaonan and the others were acquainted with Yang Jia. After arriving, Cheng Yang had introduced them. Over the past few days, Yang Jia and Chen Fengzhou had come over several times, worrying that they might not be familiar with the base’s customs and told them to ask if they didn’t understand something, even delivering food to them.

So when it came to Yang Jia and Chen Fengzhou, Chen Shaonan and the others were very friendly.

Gu Pan and Lu Ruisheng arrived at Yang Jia’s door and knocked.

Chen Fengzhou, who opened the door, excitedly called for Yang Jia: "Jiajia, come out quick. Sis, brother-in-law are back."

Yang Jia rushed out and embraced Gu Pan: "I’ve missed you so much."

Gu Pan patted her on the back, smiling, "Chen Fengzhou hasn’t been bullying you, has he?"

Yang Jia’s face turned a bit red: "No, he wouldn’t dare."

Chen Fengzhou scratched his head: "I wouldn’t dare to either."

Lu Ruisheng understood the change in the two and laughed: "Do we have a situation here?"

Gu Pan also looked on playfully at the two of them: "Spill it."

Yang Jia pulled Gu Pan into the house: "We’re together now."

Looking around their room, what used to be Chen Fengzhou’s living quarters had been turned into a living room. It was obvious they were living together now. No need to say it; everyone understood.

Very generously, Gu Pan took out a box of contraceptive products from her bag: "Consider this a congratulatory gift."

Yang Jia’s face could bleed from embarrassment: "Sis, can’t we talk about this privately?"

Gu Pan couldn’t help but laugh: "My apologies, married folks like me have less to consider."

Lu Ruisheng knocked on his wife’s head: "You’re too much, really."

Gu Pan took out some freeze-dried vegetables and fruit cans, along with two bottles of vitamins and calcium tablets, "You all have to eat these frequently during this time."

Having said that, she took out an ultraviolet lamp, "Use this to disinfect the house every day. People can’t handle being without light for a long time, and without sunlight, things will mold and breed bacteria."

Yang Jia looked at these items, "Sis, you’re really too good to me."

Gu Pan smiled and said, "You’ve already said I’m your sister, so shouldn’t I treat you well?"

Lu Ruisheng checked his watch and said, "It’s getting late. Come to my house for dinner tonight. Teacher Chen and his family are coming too, and we should all get together."

Yang Jia hurriedly waved her hands, "We won’t go today, another day. With Teacher Chen coming over, you old friends will surely have a lot to talk about. When there’s good food another day, we will definitely come over to mooch a meal."

To this, Gu Pan and Lu Ruisheng did not insist. After all, they would meet again in the next few days. It was true that they had some things to discuss that outsiders wouldn’t understand.

So they agreed to invite them for dinner another time. Then Gu Pan gave Yang Jia a pack of chocolate before they said goodbye and left.

The two went back to Chen Shaonan’s house, picked up his family of three, and drove together back to the villa area.

On the way, Chen Lang looked out the window, "Extreme day and extreme night, what kind of disaster will come next?"

Now everyone had this concept: they were no longer as optimistic or hopeful as before, realizing that the apocalypse wouldn’t end easily and various disasters would follow one after another. So now people were more focused on preparing, considering how to protect themselves if a disaster struck.

Driving, Lu Ruisheng tapped the steering wheel, "No matter what disaster, we’re still safe at the base. At least following the organization, our chances of survival are the highest."

Chen Shaonan agreed, "Indeed, once in the base, it feels like our hearts calm down. If even the base can’t protect us, then we probably wouldn’t survive anywhere else."

Gu Pan said, "Our little team is also very strong, so at the base, with people like us, we should be able to face most difficulties."

This kind of encouraging talk was very useful at times like this, making everyone feel more secure.

They quickly returned to Gu Pan’s home. After entering the yard and Lu Ruisheng parking the car, they went inside together.

Gu Pan turned on the rechargeable lights in the home and then turned to Chen Shaonan, "That’s right, Teacher Chen, we have a generator that isn’t working too well. Can you take a look at it?"

They had a small generator that wasn’t very functional, and since nobody knew how to fix it and they didn’t want others to see it, Gu Pan had stored it away in the Space. Now that Chen Shaonan was here, that was no longer an issue.

Chen Shaonan happily accepted, "Of course, having a generator is indeed convenient." He sighed, "It’s a pity about those generators we had before. Damn tornado, we lost so many good things."

Gu Pan said, "No worries, when we have time, we’ll go out and gather supplies again."

Duan Shumei felt regret, "Now supplies are getting scarcer, and even those that haven’t been scavenged are often no longer usable due to aging. It’s such a pity about those good items. When we have time, let’s go out together to gather things sooner."

"Indeed, the extreme night really isn’t convenient. We see that after each disaster, there’s a stable period. Once this extreme night is over, we’ll head out," Gu Pan also thought about taking advantage of the next outing to gather as much as she could to store in the Space.

After speaking, she poured juice for Chen Shaonan’s family, then called for Lu Ruisheng to follow her to the storage room. They took the generator out of the Space along with a few broken ultraviolet lamps, carrying them into the living room.

Chen Shaonan looked at the generator, "Nice, this one’s good; it has a big capacity, enough to power two families. Just, fuel is getting harder and harder to find these days."

Lu Ruisheng replied, "We still have some hidden outside. It’s enough for us, just that we don’t have many generators. Anyway, we have large-capacity portable power sources and high-powered rechargeable lights. We can fully charge them and give them to you, ensuring we all have enough power."
