“It’s okay; having food is already good,” Fu Shinan mechanically took the bowl and swallowed a spoonful. Unfortunately, it tasted terrible, but she couldn’t afford to waste it. She continued, “When should we take action?”

Ji Zan replied, “We’re waiting for someone to return. He has an excellent memory, and that’s what we need.”

“Wait, who are we waiting for?” Fu Shinan was wondering as she couldn’t recall anyone with an exceptionally good memory among them. But before she could ponder further, the answer appeared right before her eyes. Out of nowhere, a curly-haired young boy, Xiao Chang’an, appeared.

Xiao Chang’an looked around curiously and then hugged Fu Shinan’s thigh,

“Aunt Fu, Uncle! I’m back again! Hehe.”

Fu Shinan finally remembered Xiao Chang’an’s ability and happily embraced him, “Of course, I forgot about your power! You can instantly return to your uncle whenever you want! That’s great! Do you remember what’s happening on your side?”

Xiao Changan scratched his little chin and said in a childish voice, “Auntie and Nana were captured by a bunch of weirdly dressed people. They said something about a sacrifice… Uncle, let’s hurry and rescue them!”

Ji Zan ruffled Xiao Chang’an’s little head, “I got it. Let’s finish our meal first, then we’ll discuss it.”

Fu Shinan, initially anxious upon hearing Xiao Chang’an’s words, strangely felt less urgency upon seeing Ji Zan’s confident demeanor. She knew he had precognitive abilities. If he was calm, it meant there was no immediate danger. Rushing into unknown situations wouldn’t help. They were unfamiliar with those people, and recalling the mysterious fog that created illusions, Fu Shinan hesitated to take any rash actions. If they were all captured, they’d be left with no options.

With these thoughts in mind, Fu Shinan started to feel a bit more at ease. She knew that getting too anxious could lead to mistakes, and what they needed now was to stay calm. She gently placed Xiao Chang’an down and served him a bowl of porridge, blowing on it to cool it down. She said, “Take your time, it’s a bit hot.”

“Thank you, Aunt Fu.” Xiao Chang’an smiled, but when he took a sip, he winced from the heat. He looked at his uncle and Fu Shinan before quietly continuing to drink.

Even though he was just a kid, after surviving for so long, he understood the importance of having food and didn’t complain.

Fu Shinan appreciated his maturity, though it also made her feel a bit sad. Without the apocalypse, children like him could have had carefree lives. She lovingly patted his head, feeling both fondness and sorrow. If it weren’t for the end of the world, kids like him could have lived without worries.

As she continued eating, Fu Shinan suddenly felt someone’s gaze on her, making her a bit uncomfortable. She couldn’t help but ask, “Why are you staring at me? Is there something on my face?”

Ji Zan lowered his head and said, “No, I’m going to call Sun Han for lunch.”

Fu Shinan was puzzled, but as Ji Zan left, Xiao Chang’an approached her with a mischievous grin. His eyes squinted playfully as he said, “Hehe, Auntie, my uncle is shy.”

“Huh?” Fu Shinan almost choked on her porridge at his words.

Unaware of what he had revealed, Xiao Chang’an continued, “Hehe, I saw it. Uncle was just sneakily watching Auntie!”

Fu Shinan, her face flushed, quickly changed the subject, “Did those people harm you? Did you see Fugui? Is he with you?”

Xiao Chang’an shook his head, “They didn’t hurt us, but they kept us tied up and spoke in a strange language we couldn’t understand. I didn’t see Fugui.”

Fu Shinan fell silent, wondering about the intentions of those people. They didn’t appear to be zombies, and their talk of a sacrifice hinted at a secretive and ancient group. She couldn’t help but feel uneasy. If there was no threat, why go through all this trouble? However, before she could delve deeper into her thoughts, Sun Han woke up and apologized for sleeping in.

Seeing Sun Han’s swollen eyes, Fu Shinan knew he must have been blaming himself all night. She spoke in a comforting tone, “We all stayed up late last night, and nobody got proper rest. It’s normal to oversleep. Let’s have breakfast and then figure out a way to rescue everyone.”

Sun Han, his eyes still slightly red, bit his lip and said, “I shouldn’t have hidden. I…”

“Enough, don’t dwell on that,” Ji Zan interjected as he approached from outside, his tone somewhat chilly. “Not hiding would have only gotten you captured. In times of crisis, ensuring your safety is the most important thing. Being foolish enough to get caught is the worst outcome..”
