Rewriting My Fate in the Apocalypse-Chapter 97: The Crystal Changes
Chapter 97: Chapter 97: The Crystal Changes
"Just a nightmare." Leng Pan dismisses the dream as a simple nightmare because she doesn’t want Lu Zhen to worry and she also doesn’t want to accept what she had seen in the dream as a reality anywhere.
Taking a deep breath and breathing in Lu Zhen’s scent, she felt relaxed and secure. His arms and unique scent always gave a sense of security that nothing else could.
After some time, she got out of her husband’s arms and went into the bathroom.
"I got all sweaty, I am going to take a shower first." Leng Pan said as she walked towards the bathroom.
"Shall I join you?" Lu Zhen asked, looking at the seductive woman’s back wrapped in silk pajamas watching how her waist twisted as she walked.
He had always known she was beautiful in whatever she wore, but she recently started thinking that she is the most beautiful when naked.
And he wanted to experience that beauty all the time.
Leng Pan, hearing his question as if chased by a devil, ran into the bathroom and locked the door.
"In your dreams. I’ll be out in a few minutes." She shouted behind the locked door and soon Lu Zhen could hear the sound of running water.
Lu Zhen smiled at her response. He wasn’t actually planning on showering with her. He was fully aware of his state of self-control when he was around her, especially when she was naked.
If he really followed her into the bathroom, they might spend another hour or more there making love and he was starting to feel like a rabbit. That breed of animals seemed to always be doing something to reproduce.
However, if they could be like rabbits, he wouldn’t complain either. But he didn’t want to tire her out so much.
Just now, he made that suggestion just to pull her mind out of her disturbed thoughts. He didn’t know what she had dreamed about, but he was sure it wasn’t something good. Apart from being all sweaty probably because she was afraid or anxious in her dream, he could tell that she was also trembling a little even though she tried to hide it.
Whatever she had dreamed of didn’t seem as simple as a nightmare. But he didn’t want her to relieve it, so he chose not to probe and instead tried to distract her.
From her tone when she told him to dream in, he would say he had succeeded.
Leng Pan took a quick bath and came back out to find her husband fully dressed and waiting for her. Even after he stopped wearing those formal suits and started to dress more casually and comfortably, he still had that dignified air of a ruler.
If this were ancient times, she was sure he would have the demeanor of an emperor. She had heard through the grave vine before that he was fearsome to his employees, but they also held immense respect for his abilities.
She had known that he was a hardworking man who gave everything he did his whole. That’s why the company had grown so much after he took over.
She guessed it was the same mentality he had in relationships. Even though the original Leng Pan had caused quite some trouble because of Bai Yinyin, Lu Zhen never once thought of giving up on her and finding someone else who would appreciate him and his efforts.
Nevertheless, she was glad for this trait of his. Otherwise, where would she be if he hadn’t still wanted her when she transmigrated.
The two had slept for more than two hours and it would be dinner time soon. So, instead of training, they decided to visit the space bangle and see if they would discover something new.
Like before, they appeared in the grassy garden outside the warehouse and went straight to the mansion.
As soon as they got close to the door, it opened automatically and the voice they heard last time welcomed them again.
"Welcome Commander Leng." Leng Pan had already become accustomed to this address but today, she couldn’t help but flinch a little when she heard it.
It reminded her of the nightmare she had during her nap and how that running silhouette had addressed the woman in the forefront fighting the fiercest with an equally fierce man by her side.
She had tried to ignore that image and dismissed it as just a dream, but deep down, she felt that it couldn’t be so simple.
Nevertheless, for the time being, since she couldn’t even make out the faces or voices, there was no need to fret. She would play everything by the ear and not drive herself to a dead end because of something she couldn’t control.
Thinking this way, she actually felt lighter and the haze that had been covering her heart since she woke up from her nap disappeared.
She felt much lighter and happier. She smiled a bright smile and grabbed Lu Zhen’s hand as they made their way into the mansion.
Walking into the familiar living room, everything was exactly as they had left it. The scenery changing on the walls was the same, the holographic coffee table was still there with the meteorite sitting on top, and the small crystal shard Lu Zhen had found on the rooftop of the building they had been using as a temporary rest area was sitting beside the meteorite.
They had left the crystal there last time because they thought it might be connected.
They didn’t expect anything to happen to it, just placing it there so that it doesn’t get lost or get discovered and cause trouble.
However, what they saw when they got closer left them with their mouths agape. Was that really the crystal they had left there the previous day? frёeωebɳovel.com
It was so different! If not for the shape and color, they would have thought that someone had changed it and placed a fake there.
From the looks of it, their thought process was right. This small crystal shard indeed had a connection to the meteorite. Otherwise, such a change couldn’t be seen in just one day.
