Back to the Apocalypse

Chapter 2

"Grandma Li, we're here!" Zhang Yuqi cheerfully exclaimed.

"Girl, let's get you to a hospital first. As a pregnant lady, you should be more careful. Even driving here wasn't a good idea. And what happened to the situation back in our town?"

"Ah, well, let's get to the hospital first. I already scheduled an appointment."

"Un, you are a very smart high-schooler! Ah, why did the gods curse you to have such an unfortunate life?"

"It's ok Grandma Li. At least I'll have a son to accompany me."

"Eh? You already know it's a son? I thought you hadn't gone to the hospitals in the last 6 months!"

"Ah... it's just a premonition grandma. Think about it, am I not awesome for finding out about the huge disaster early?"

"Aiyo, girl, I already know you are very good. Hurry hurry. Lest not the child be born while you keep on driving."

With Grandma Li's urging, Zhang Yuqi quickly drove towards the hospital.

The city didn't have anyone out in the streets.

A few cars went by without even keeping the traffic rules. Grandma Li got very mad about that and yelled how people didn't have morals these days.

'Well, they are pretty scared to death about the zombie apocalypse...' was Zhang Yuqi's helpless thoughts as she smiled bitterly when Grandma Li started cursing at those people.

Zhang Yuqi got to the hospital safe and entered quickly once again with Grandma Li's urging.

The nurses and doctors looked pale and had trembling hands but they still carefully took the pregnant high-schooler to a room.

'Darling, how much time do I have before Cinna is born?'

'2 days, 3 hours, 17 minutes, and 34 seconds.'

'Huh, ok.'

'Huh? Huh?! You should be praising me for how awesome I am!'

'Ah, yes, you are very awesome. The best system ever. Very handsome too.'

'Hmph, you can't fool me. Besides, you haven't seen my face yet. And you should have put more enthusiasm in it.'

'Sorry Darling... I'm just too tired.'

'Fine, just take care of yourself the next few days. I need to go to the system management department. I should have gone earlier but never got a chance to. I'll go get your beginner packet. Hosts seem to call it the golden finger? Don't know why.'

'Really?! Quick quick! Get me a good cheat!'

'Huh, where did all this enthusiasm come from?'

'Eh-cough cough-, how tired I am... Hurry and go bring back a good cheat for me. See how my condition is? Go get something good to cheer me up.'

Darling's inner thoughts: How shameless!

"Girl, hurry in. Although these doctors look suspicious, they should know what they're doing. God knows why they look so scared. More than a pregnant woman!"

"Yes yes, Grandma, you should go wait in the lobby. After a check-up, we can head towards a hotel."

'And granny, OF COURSE, THEY LOOK SCARED! It's the zombie apocalypse! Well, I'll tell her about it later...' Zhang Yuqi secretly said in her heart.

The doctors and nurses advised against leaving the hospital but Zhang Yuqi cheerfully waved them away, making them look bitter.

Zhang Yuqi once again drove her armored car very quickly. This time to the hotel.
