Chapter 212: Apocalypse: Saving the Cold Beauty Doctor 30
Jin Chen kicked away the zombie rushing up, used psychic attack again, and bought himself a chance to run upstairs.
But he didn't expect to misstep; the zombies upstairs filled the stairwell entrance.
His expression changed slightly; he quickly decided to take the less crowded stairwell on the other side, killed all the blocking zombies, then violently kicked open the window.
In the last few seconds, Jin Chen lit the prepared lighters, threw them behind him, and jumped out of the window.
As he landed steadily, the main building instantly filled with firelight; the zombies tried to escape but were blocked by the pre‑built earthen shield.
Zhao Rui gritted his teeth, seeing Jin Chen retreat, moved the earthen shield inward, completely sealing off the main building.
"All right, all right, I'm fine."
Jin Chen had just steadied himself when someone rushed into his arms, holding him tightly; sensing Yu Rongzhou's anxiety, he quickly returned the embrace, repeatedly stroking his back.
"I really am fine..."
So could you loosen up a bit? I can barely breathe.
Jin Chen raised an eyebrow, didn't dare say the latter half, merely tilted his head back and, lowering his gaze, saw Yu Rongzhou's reddened eyes.
"From now on, you're not allowed to go on dangerous adventures alone."
Yu Rongzhou's speech carried a nasal tone.
"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you, I promise not to do it again."
He lowered his head and kissed the corner of Yu Rongzhou's mouth, "Can we make this an exception?"
"Mm." Yu Rongzhou replied, rubbing against his chest before calming down.
He looked at the building engulfed in flames, the gloom in his eyes fading as he curled up in Jin Chen's arms.

Only when he felt the burning was about enough did Yu Rongzhou use his ice ability, spreading it upward across the building.
"Jin Team, what are we doing next?" Xu Yue asked.
"First return to the villa to sleep; tomorrow we'll find all of Jiang Luo's crystal core supplies, give half to the base residents for reconstruction, and half to find someone with spatial ability to bring along."
"Where are we going?" Yu Rongzhou looked up at him.
"I'll take you to weather the elements, drifting through the apocalypse."
Jin Chen tugged at his cheek, joking, "Scared? Still want to follow me?"
Yu Rongzhou snorted; he wasn't afraid of those things.
"Try not taking me with you."
"Oh my, Yu Xiaozhou, you've grown up, directly threatening me like that."
Jin Chen laughed out loud, embraced him and turned back toward the villa, with the three following behind.
Actually finding a place to settle down wouldn't be bad, but the original research institute of Long Jiang Base had trapped Yu Rongzhou for years, so Jin Chen naturally didn't want to keep staying here.
—
After returning to the villa, it was already nearly 3:30.
Zhao Rui and the other two were exhausted, they went back to their rooms and fell asleep as soon as they lay down.
In the bedroom, Yu Rongzhou lay in Jin Chen's arms, drifting off to sleep, when he suddenly asked.
"Do you want the apocalypse to end?"
Jin Chen was about to fall asleep, but hearing that he opened his eyes again, "Why suddenly ask this?"
He recalled the original plot's turning point for the apocalypse's disappearance.
After the permanent potion was developed, Long Jiang Base didn't immediately inject it into the populace; instead, they had others purchase it with high‑priced mercenary crystal cores.
Eventually, Xiangrong Base in another province came up with a way to deal with the zombies, cooperated with Jiang Junshen—Long Jiang Base supplied the potion, they supplied the method to annihilate the zombies, and only then did the apocalypse end, returning to normal.
What a hassle! Just thinking about it is exhausting!
After finally dealing with Jiang Luo, Jin Chen just wanted to cuddle with his wife—after all, no zombie could beat him.
He turned over and held Yu Rongzhou tight, "I don't want to; it's too troublesome."
Just as Yu Rongzhou was about to say he could research the permanent potion: "……"
"You really don't want to?"
"This person isn't very kind, huh."
"No……"
【Host! If you don't act, the apocalypse can't end normally, this world will collapse! You can't spend your life with the Little Pitiful One in this world!】
"No… wanting to is obviously fake." Jin Chen promptly changed his mind.
Really troublesome!
He sighed, burying his head in Yu Rongzhou's neck, rubbing back and forth, his voice muffled.
"I know you can develop a potion that completely isolates the zombie virus, you also want the apocalypse to end, and we can stay together forever."
"Good."
Yu Rongzhou patted Jin Chen's head, "As long as you want it, I'll do it; the lab equipment here is more complete, we'll research first and then leave."
Jin Chen suddenly stopped moving, looked up at his wife, his heart fluttering, then leaned down to kiss him, wrapping his arms around his waist and pulling him into his embrace.
"……" Yu Rongzhou let out a trembling sound from his throat, wrapped his arms around his neck, and tried to respond.
The blanket was pulled over, covering both of them.
Now nobody felt sleepy.
The heat from the blankets surged toward Yu Rongzhou, his chest burning as if he were beside a blazing firewood stove, feeling almost molten.
He lifted his head, feeling Jin Chen's kisses and caresses, his eyes hazy.
Jin Chen rubbed against his cheek, ears brushing, warm breath escaping his throat.
Now we can't go all the way; he's unprepared and would hurt Yu Rongzhou.
Even the pain from holding it in is also very uncomfortable.
Jin Chen took his hand and kissed him again.
A sleepless night.

——
The next morning, Zhao Rui and the two others didn't wait for the captain and Brother Yu to wake up.
They briefly communicated, seeming to already understand each other tacitly, and, smiling, went to prepare according to Jin Chen's instructions from last night.
At noon, Yu Rongzhou slowly woke up.
He instinctively glanced out the window, but found the curtains tightly shut, the room still dim, and couldn't tell the time.
Hungry or not?
Jin Chen walked out of the bathroom, saw him awake, sat down on the bed, and stroked his cheek.
Hungry.
Yu Rongzhou nodded honestly; the lingering haze of just waking hadn't faded, as his palm lightly brushed, last night's memories gradually returned, and his ears turned red again.
His demeanor was utterly unlike his usual self, appearing exceedingly meek and gentle; Jin Chen felt his heartstrings tug, leaned in, and kissed him again.
Get up and eat; it's about time to be hungry.
Mm.
Yu Rongzhou got up and stretched.
As the two went downstairs, Zhao Rui was the first to notice with his sharp eyes.
Hey hey, Jin Team, if you don't come down now, there won't be any lunch left.
Xu Yue also laughed along, saying, "People say when you're warm and full you think of lust, but how can you think about it when you're not even full?"
Zhao Huan ate silently without speaking, but her gossiping eyes revealed she shared the same teasing thoughts.
Even eating meat can't stop your mouth.
Jin Chen laughed and scolded, then took Yu Rongzhou's hand and sat down.
How did this morning's deployment go?
Xu Yue: "That building has been declared a total loss, the zombies have mostly been burned, I got a few people to tally the supplies, and then hired help at three times the previous rate; they were all happy to do so."
Zhao Rui swallowed a mouthful of food after taking a sip of water, and also said, "Actually, the base's populace has long held a grudge against Jiang Luoji; if we leave, shouldn't we still choose someone to manage the base?"
