So are you going to explain what you did when I was gone?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can you come to the bank? We can talk there.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fine. You'd better have a good explanation for this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Xiaoyun arrived at the bank, he could see Yuqi standing outside waiting for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, babe!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yuqi, you mind explaining what happened while I was gone for two days?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ahem, let's talk somewhere more private.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Yuqi dragged Xiaoyun inside the bank, he was a little surprised to see that not a single customer was inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not even the bank tellers were working. It was almost as if the bank had been temporarily shut off just for the two of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After following Yuqi past the bank counter, the two arrived at an empty meeting room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now, do you mind explaining?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Take a seat. Why are you in such a hurry?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You tell me. How come you didn't tell me anything about the renovation?'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Renovating? I'm planning to move out of that awful office completely.\" Yuqi answered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't what me. You heard me. We're going to move to Guangzhou to work instead of Luoping in the future.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a short silence, Xiaoyun's mind only had more questions. But there are so many that he didn't know where to start.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could only ask a single word summarizing all of his feelings in the moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Because Luoping is not a good geographical location for a capital. It's too remote from our other cities compared to Guangzhou.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It already has all the infrastructure built there. There are so many abandoned skyscrapers that we can even choose as our expansion.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But how about Luoping?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What about Luoping?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are we going to move to Guangzhou then?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course not... Come on, Xiaoyun, Luoping had always been a district within Guangzhou anyway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There's no point in separating the two cities. Reintegrating them would eliminate so much of the bureaucratic bloat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not to mention, it's a bad look to handle works from Foshan and Guangzhou in a half-built town in Luoping.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a short silence, Xiaoyun started to understand what Yuqi was trying to imply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You sure this is going to work out?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\" I had already set up all the transition work ahead of time... Besides, it's only a six-minute drive from here to our new office in Guangzhou.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fine. But could you not tell this to me in advance next time?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sorry, babe!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Yuqi moved a little closer, holding Xiaoyun's arm, acting all cute, the last remaining bit of anger vanished from his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What's going to happen to Leifeng and all the people who are already working in Guangzhou?\" Xiaoyun questioned as the thought popped up in his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I already integrated them into the existing team and spread them out into the other cities...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oh, and Leifeng had already signed up to be the mayor of Qingyuan. He said he'd build it into your next crowning jewel.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The way Yuqi responded sent a little chill down Xiaoyun's spine. He couldn't imagine a man saying that out loud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stop being so weird. Can you stay professional for one second?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Has Babe not forgiven me for keeping it a secret? What can I do to make up for it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Yuqi moving even closer, Xiaoyun quickly moved back a little before clearing his throat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ahem. We can talk later tonight. We have a lot of work moving stuff, don't we?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After following Yuqi back to the administrative building, the two of them moved almost everything out of the old office and into a truck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Boo... You're no fun.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After following Yuqi back to the administrative building, the two of them moved almost everything out of the old office and into a truck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All the other employees had already packed their stuff and were hopping on a bus to their new office.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yuqi, what are you going to do with this old office?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's going to be a newly renovated office that manages public services within Luoping... I was tired of hearing the public sector team complain about having to work in a shack at the commercial district.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's the real reason for moving, wasn't it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course not. It just so happens that everything lines up together. Come on, let's go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Yuqi dragged Xiaoyun to the parking lot, he was a little surprised to see an almost brand-new Sedan there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your new car?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Duh. How else am I supposed to get to work every day in the future? Do I look like the type of person who takes buses?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiaoyun didn't say anything back, following her into the car as he sat down in the passenger seat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You got a car license, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course I do. I was the one driving that old SUV before you took it from me.\" Yuqi answered as she inserted the car key.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That SUV belongs to me. I was the one who brought it.\" Xiaoyun argued back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah, and who's the one that faked their death and got the car ownership over to?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once again, Xiaoyun remained silent as Yuqi switched the gear and started reversing. \"It's quiet, isn't it?\" Yuqi suddenly murmured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah... How is it so quiet?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's an electric car. Duh. I bet your old-fashioned mind had never seen such a car.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Yuqi shifts the gear out of reverse, Xiaoyun's mind is still a little blown away by the electric car.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, an idea started to pop up in his mind—an idea so great that it would solve all his problems.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yuqi, how many electric cars do we have?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"About several thousand of them, all parking in the storage unit at Guangzhou...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Perfect.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why are you asking that all of a sudden?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I was just thinking, if we have an oil shortage, why don't we just go all in on electric?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you think none of us has thought of that? Do you realize how much stress our power grid will endure?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuqi's answer put down Xiaoyun's flame a little, but his mind was still adamantly defiant to it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We just need more solar panels and batteries, right? I can make them no problem——\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's going to take at least several thousand panels and hundreds of thousands of batteries. Are you sure you can do it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Never mind.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Xiaoyun backed down from the challenge, Yuqi only let out a small chuckle before driving out of Luoping.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the two of them finally arrived at Guangzhou, Xiaoyun could immediately feel the heavy security on the streets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hundreds of police officers were patrolling, with border guards at every tall building, watching down from above.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was almost as if it was making sure absolutely nothing went wrong on the transition day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yuqi, are we going to start moving everything over to Guangzhou?\" Xiaoyun suddenly asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course not. Didn't I already tell you we're going to continue living in Luoping?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah, but... People are going to start moving back to Guangzhou with all this focus on it, no?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's even better. Imagine hundreds of thousands of people living in a single house family district when there's a more efficient apartment?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I guess...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I want Luoping to get less populated anyway... It's so crowded and noisy when it's our home.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Yuqi murmured the last part out, Xiaoyun didn't say anything back. In his heart, he agreed with it, even if it sounded extremely selfish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now we're here. Let's go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the two of them exited the car, Xiaoyun immediately noticed the building looked a little familiar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking further up a little, he could see oddly familiar signs right at the door entrance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are you looking at?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why does this building feel so familiar?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Because it's your building, you silly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Following Yuqi inside, he quickly noticed a giant logo of the skyscraper's original owner behind the receptionist's desk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Songjia conglomerates!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You finally realize it? I'm surprised it took you that long. I thought you would have found that out just based on the direction.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Yuqi headed to the elevator, Xiaoyun quickly squeezed past the crowds of people who were also getting on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good evening, Governor.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good evening.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After enduring the elevator's constant stops, all the office workers finally arrived at their floors. Only two remained in the elevator as it continued to go up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yuqi, why did you pick this building over any other buildings in the city center?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Because I thought you would like it. Do you not like my choice?\" Yuqi questioned with a hint of irritation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course I like it. I feel almost right at home with this building.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Xiaoyun finished responding, the elevator finally arrived at the top of the building.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then stop putting up a face like that. It keeps making me think I made the wrong choice.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the two of them exited the elevator, they were met with an extremely dark hallway with all the b closed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finding the light switch in the dark, a single flick finally allowed them to see what was before them.\u003C\u002Fp>",1535,"2026-06-10T06:59:51.848Z",1,"novelbin.me","281de2f328774d9c7ae6043b271f8ea2d375330c3e1071780fe721a688620032","zombie-apocalypse-creation-chapter-756","zombie-apocalypse-creation-chapter-755",829,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fzombie-apocalypse-creation-cover.jpg"]
