Chapter 103: Return to the Post-Apocalypse
"This brat… Always creating loud noises as she came back from the university. Can't she learn how to be ladylike once in a while?" the old lady came out and nagged. After making sure that nothing got caught in her granddaughter's mess, she returned to her comfortable bamboo recliner at the back garden and rested until they need her.
Since it was just a quick come-and-go distraction, Zhang Qin Feng didn't put too much of it in his mind. Continued to enjoy the lunch until the plate was cleaned to the last drop of its sauces, Zhang Qin Feng's first lunch in this city was a delicious one.
"Let's come back here again if there's a chance. I would like to try what else they have here." Zhang Qin Feng said and offered to pay for the bill.
To be considerate to the old lady, he made his way towards where the cashier spot is to make his payment before leaving the restaurant with Robert.
"How is the food, young man?" the old lady asked Zhang Qin Feng.
"Very delicious. If there's a chance, I'll come back again. Please serve me something else by that time." Zhang Qin Feng smiled at the old lady and paid a little extra as a token of appreciation for serving him such delicious food.
"Hahaha. Come back. This old lady will make sure to serve you my signature Herbal Roasted Duck and Seafood Broth next time." the old lady patted Zhang Qin Feng's shoulder.
As he walked to the door and placed his hand on the handle, someone else was reaching for the handle at the same time. Since the other side was a female, her strength is significantly weaker than Zhang Qin Feng.
Getting pulled into the restaurant by surprise, her face bumped onto Zhang Qin Feng's black shirt.
"Ah… I'm sorry." Zhang Qin Feng embarrassedly nodded his head after knowing what he just did. The two keep nodding at each other until Zhang Qin Feng left the restaurant and returned to Robert's car.
"Did you bump with the girl when you came out just now?" Robert asked.
"Ah… Yes… How did you know?" Zhang Qin Feng asked after getting into the car.
"If you look at your shirt, Mr. Zhang… She just gave you her signature on it." Robert was smiling as he answered Zhang Qin Feng's question.
Looking at his shirt, Zhang Qin Feng noticed that when the young lady bumps on him, some of her makeup was getting smudged onto his shirt.
"By the way, Mr. Zhang. That lady you bump into is likely the younger sister. Her name is Soojin. You're pretty lucky to meet the two at this time in the day. They're usually in the class in the afternoon." Robert said as he gave Zhang Qin Feng a packet of wet tissues to clean himself.
The car starts moving minutes later while Zhang Qin Feng is busy cleaning his shirt from the makeup stain.
It was evident that the traffic is much better than before. Getting into the city center without obstruction, he was taken around by Robert to visit the place until it was 3pm in the afternoon.
"Mr. Zhang, please call me if there's anything you need," Robert said after helping Zhang Qin Feng took his luggage back out from the boot.
"I will. Thank you for your hard work today, Mr. Robert." Zhang Qin Feng said. After sending Robert away, he turned around and entered the four-star hotel he's staying for the whole week.
"Good afternoon! Welcome to the Grand Season Hotel, Xiyang City Branch. Do you have a reservation with us?" the receptionist asked as Zhang Qin Feng approached the counter. It was handled by two young receptionists in their twenties.
"Yes. It was booked under the name of Zhang Qin Feng. A traveler from Dongcheng." he replied.
"Please give me a few seconds… Yes, there's the record of your booking in our system. It is a double-size bedroom, seven-night stay, breakfast inclusive. Would you like to upgrade so you can use the gym facility and laundry as well?" the receptionist asked.
"Yes, please." Zhang Qin Feng replied.
After making the required payment and writing down his details, Zhang Qin Feng received the key to the room. It was quite a good omen as he was given the room with the number 0818.
Setting his luggage bag aside and rested on top of the bed, Zhang Qin Feng took a look at the four corners of the hotel room. Since money was no longer a problem anymore, it was not wrong to spend on a luxurious accommodation like this one.
Due to the comfort of the bed and the wisely controlled room temperature, Zhang Qin Feng falls asleep almost instantly without getting a change of cloth. It was close to 5pm by the time he wakes up,
"I should give Yufei a text message to tell her that I arrived at the hotel." Zhang Qin Feng smiled and sent a text to report his safe arrival in this country.
(Did you get a rest?)
Wang Yufei returned a message to him almost instantly after he tapped the send button. Smiling, he talked with her for a while until it was time to sleep over there at Dongcheng.
He made sure that nothing with value was left in this room unattended when he was away. After he's convinced with himself, Zhang Qin Feng called for Stein.
[Yes, User. Please give your instruction on what you like the system to do]
Stein obediently responded to Zhang Qin Feng's summon as soon as he called its name.
'Do we have enough energy to travel to the Post-Apocalypse?' Zhang Qin Feng asked.
[Yes. The system still reserves two charges to go and return. Would the user like to activate the dimensional travel right now?]
Stein answered Zhang Qin Feng's question faithfully.
'Good. Activate the dimensional travel. Let's take a look at the post-apocalypse after not going there for almost a week. Bring my equipment out.' Zhang Qin Feng ordered.
[Received. Initiating Dimensional Travel right now]
*Xiu!*
