Lou Fengyue sat beside him, listening to Lou Yunzheng and Qin Qian discuss the areas where the architectural drawings needed improvement, and a smile appeared in her peach blossom eyes.

This was the first time she had seen her brother at work.

The way she shines in her professional field is completely different from how she is when she's in love with him.

"I will reorganize the tasks of the superpowered teams tomorrow. The rescue teams will be led by superpowered individuals, with special police and armed police joining in to conduct search and rescue operations. The supply teams will be led by superpowered individuals to clear the way, with ordinary people responsible for carrying the supplies. If there are no space-age superpowered individuals, they will drive trucks to carry them."

Luo Zeyan wrote down the arrangements in his notebook as he spoke.

Then he looked up at Lou Yunzheng and said, "Arrange for two earth-type and two metal-type members to join the construction team to lay the foundation and dig the tunnel. Having ability users to help will make it much faster."

"Okay." Lou Yunzheng nodded, accepting the suggestion.

Lou Fengyue glanced at Luo Zeyan with a hint of surprise.

I have to admit that I am no match for him in terms of overall planning.

Qin Qian had already gone to great lengths to find a satellite phone to contact Du Gui.

There's definitely not enough time to build a new safe zone or implement extreme heat protection in Yulin.

It was agreed from the beginning that the entire project would be relocated here and integrated with Linjiang.

Now, some very exciting news has suddenly arrived: we need to get people with construction experience from that area to come and help. Only if we have enough manpower can we possibly build the new district within a month.

The new district was built before the rainy season ended, and there will be a transition period afterward, which will be just enough time to transfer the remaining survivors there.

Everything that needed to be discussed has been discussed, and everyone knows what needs to be done.

Lou Fengyue didn't linger any longer and pulled her brother home to sleep.

Luo Zeyan followed closely behind.

The night wind was chilly, and no one could believe that in just over a month, the temperature would rise above 40 degrees Celsius.

It was already 11 p.m. when the three of them entered the unit door of Building A.

The stairwell was quiet, save for the sound of their footsteps and the faint white light emanating from the solar-powered emergency lights hanging on the wall.

"I'll be overseeing the construction in the new district for a while, so you can stay home with Mom and Dad." Lou Yunzheng rubbed his younger sister's head.

"I'm taking my parents out," Lou Fengyue said succinctly. "You go ahead and do your thing; I'll take care of things at home."

Lou Yunzheng was stunned. His younger sister, who used to want to lock their parents in the building, was now taking them out?

It's not about leaving that steel gate, nor about going up to the rooftop vegetable garden.

Instead, they left the safe zone and ventured into a world teeming with zombies and mutated beasts.

"Where to?" he asked instinctively.

"A new home," Lou Fengyue said crisply and decisively, "We're not going to the new district."

When she said those words, her tone was as calm as if she were saying that the weather was nice today, but Lou Yunzheng and Luo Zeyan stopped in their tracks at the same time.

"Not going?" Lou Yunzheng frowned slightly, looking at his sister with confusion. "Why? There are air-raid shelters in the new district that can withstand the extreme heat."

Lou Fengyue, with her hands in her pockets and her head down, walked up the stairs step by step.

"After the new district is built, the survivors from Yulin will also be relocated here, which will accommodate at least a thousand people. Where there are many people, there will be many problems."

Her voice was very soft, echoing in the quiet stairwell, revealing little emotion.

"I hoarded so many supplies not so that my parents could eat communal meals or live in dormitories."

Lou Yunzheng pursed his lips, unable to think of a rebuttal.

He knew that his sister had never intended to rely on the government to live in a safe zone.

The fact that the safe zone was built right on my doorstep was purely accidental.

Now that the safe zone is moving, she naturally can't move with it.

"Where are you planning to go?" Luo Zeyan stared at her retreating figure, his eyes deep and unfathomable in the dim light. "The extreme heat isn't something you can easily endure."

"There's a place where we can escape the summer heat," Lou Fengyue stopped and turned around, "but we can't bring too many people."

When Luo Zeyan met those calm eyes, his heart skipped a beat.

He understood what Lou Fengyue meant.

That place was one she had planned to take her family to long ago.

Whether or not she reunites with him, she will not change her plans; she is going to leave.

The place is small, only able to accommodate her family, and she can only take care of her own family.

Luo Zeyan's Adam's apple bobbed, and after a long silence, he asked, "When are you leaving?"

"Leave when the rainy season ends and the rain stops."

The air in the stairwell suddenly felt thin, and the atmosphere was even more oppressive than in the conference room.

Lou Yunzheng stood between the two, looking at his sister and then at Luo Zeyan.

You can feel that subtle pulling sensation in the air.

He didn't say anything, but simply patted his sister on the back of the head to show his support.

Whatever decision she makes, wherever she wants to go, he will accompany her without question.

The three continued walking uphill, and none of them mentioned the matter again.

Upon reaching the 37th floor, the corridor was quiet, with only a few motion-sensor lights turning on one by one as they walked by.

"We're here." Lou Fengyue stopped in front of the steel gate, took out her keys, and said, "Get some sleep. We'll be busy tomorrow."

She opened the door to the side, her movements natural, deliberately avoiding looking at Luo Zeyan.

Luo Zeyan stood in the corridor, watching the steel door open a crack, letting in a warm yellow light.

Lou Fengyue.

She paused for a moment, then turned to look at him.

"Would you like to come along tomorrow to find medical supplies?"

Lou Fengyue was silent for two seconds: "No, I have something else to do."

"Okay." Luo Zeyan agreed, no longer insisting, and turned to enter 3702.

The living room lights flickered, and Li Yichen sat cross-legged on the sofa with a stack of maps spread out in front of him.

"The meeting's over? How did it go?" Li Yichen asked, looking up.

"It will be extremely hot, with temperatures reaching 70 degrees Celsius." Luo Zeyan took off his down jacket and draped it over the back of a chair. "Starting tomorrow, we'll reassign tasks. I'll lead the team to search hospitals and pharmacies."

Li Yichen's expression changed, and after a few seconds of silence, he asked, "Where's the class monitor?"

"She has her own plans."

Li Yichen glanced at him and didn't ask any further questions. "Go to sleep early. I'll go with you tomorrow."

Next door, 3703.

When Lou Fengyue entered the room, the living room light was still on; her parents had already gone back to their room to sleep.

She put the key on the shoe cabinet, changed into slippers, and tiptoed to the living room window.

Outside the window, the city skyline was dark, with occasional flashes of light in the distance—the flashlights of the special police patrol team.

She stood there for a while, then took out a palm-sized wooden box from her storage space and opened it.

Inside lay five pale golden seeds, each the size of a fingernail, their surfaces shimmering with a soft glow.

Three-life flower seeds.

She doesn't know its purpose yet.

【Three-Life Flower Seeds: After planting, the soil within a five-meter radius is automatically purified. After flowering, plants within a ten-meter radius grow 15% faster and their cold and heat resistance increases by 5°C.】

In other words, assuming the suitable growth temperature for crops is 15℃ to 25℃, with the help of Sansheng Flower, this range can be extended to 10℃ to 30℃.

Moreover, it can be grown in any soil and no longer needs to rely on potting soil.

It sounds good; it's a good product.

Lou Yunzheng brought two glasses of warm water out of the kitchen and saw her standing by the window. "Aren't you going to sleep yet?"

"Right away." She closed the wooden box and retracted it into her spatial storage. "Brother, are you going to stay in the new district to oversee the construction? Are you coming back tonight?"

Lou Yunzheng handed her a glass of warm water and sighed, "We were originally planning to sleep in a tent over there, but you..."

"It's okay," Lou Fengyue replied quickly. "I'll take good care of Mom and Dad. You just need to do what you think is right."

Lou Yunzheng chuckled softly, "Then I'll go and oversee the construction of the new district. Once it's finished, I'll come with you."
