Chapter 20

    After Ai Wei awakened his ability, his injury recovery speed became very fast. Even after being shot, he could recover completely in no time.

    “You put your clothes on first.” Ai Wei excitedly took out a set of clothes from the closet and handed them to Xia Junchi, saying, “Once you’re dressed, I’ll go find Doctor Li to remove the cast!”

    Xia Junchi put on his clothes and looked at the bedding that had been burned to ashes, saying, “We need to change the bedding…”

    Fortunately, the flames he emitted when he had just awakened his ability weren’t very powerful. It only burned the bedding without burning the bed as well; otherwise, even the bed would have been unusable.

    Doctor Li was pulled over again, removed the cast for Xia Junchi, and examined his body, saying that he was now perfectly healthy and had no problems at all before returning.

    After Doctor Li left, Xia Junchi replaced the charred bedding with new bedding, but he couldn’t fall asleep.

    He had just awakened his ability, and his whole person was in a state of excitement. From time to time, he would release that small ball of fire from his palm, then take it back, and manipulate the fire to fly around. He even tried to split the flame into two and mold them into various shapes. Unfortunately, his ability was still too weak, and he couldn’t even sustain such a small flame for long. In less than two minutes, the flame disappeared.

    By the time he could gather his ability again and emit the flame, an hour had passed. He waited for his ability to replenish, then manipulated the flame again. When the flame disappeared, he continued to wait for his ability to recover, repeating this cycle until five in the morning when he finally couldn’t hold on any longer and fell asleep.

    The next morning, everyone knew that Xia Junchi had awakened a fire-type ability.

    Lan Ting, Li Xiaxia, and Zheng Anhe, the three children, all ran over to see the fire-type ability. Xia Junchi, rarely showing his childish side, put on a firework show for them. One moment he was commanding the small flame to jump around, another moment he was splitting the small flame into several strands to play with each other, and another moment he was exploding the small flame into fireworks, watching the children scream with excitement.

    Ai Wei watched him happily playing with the children and couldn’t help but feel warm and joyful.

    With a smile on his face, he made breakfast. After everyone finished eating, they prepared to return to the Safe Zone.

    The luggage had been packed up mostly yesterday. Now, everyone loaded the luggage onto the car, and they could leave directly.

    The B City Safe Zone was several hours away from Youran Mountain Villa. The main roads had been cleared, so the journey was relatively smooth, and they didn’t encounter any danger.

    Xia Junchi’s leg was better, so he volunteered to drive. Ai Wei sat in the car, thinking that Ai Yi was also in the B City Safe Zone, so he made a voice call to Ai Yi.

    However, the phone rang for a long time, and no one answered on Ai Yi’s end.

    Ai Wei couldn’t help but feel worried, but he thought that the Safe Zone was very strictly managed, so there shouldn’t be any danger. He sent Ai Yi a voice message, telling her that he was on his way to the B City Safe Zone and asked her to call him back when she had time.

    But until 2 PM, when Ai Wei and his group arrived at the B City Safe Zone, there was still no news from Ai Yi.

    Ai Wei was now really worried and had a faint, bad feeling in his heart. He started calling Ai Yi non-stop. Finally, on the 21st call, she finally answered the phone.

    “Hello.”

    Hearing Ai Yi’s voice from the phone, Ai Wei breathed a sigh of relief and complained, “Sis, why haven’t you been answering the phone?”

    “I was out doing something just now and forgot to take my phone,” Ai Yi explained.

    “Are you okay?” Ai Wei was still a little worried, always feeling that Ai Yi had changed a lot recently. But after all, it was the end of the world, and many people had undergone major changes, so their personalities had changed more or less. He couldn’t be sure if Ai Yi was really hiding something from him.

    “What could possibly happen to me?!” Ai Yi said, “Just take care of yourself and don’t worry me.”

    “I’m just worried about you! You don’t answer the phone or reply to WeChat messages. I was afraid something happened to you!” Ai Wei said with some dissatisfaction.

    Ai Yi listened to him and was silent for a moment. Her tone softened, and she said, “I’m sorry, I’ve been in a bad mood lately, so my tone was a little harsh.”

    Ai Wei didn’t argue with her but asked, “Why are you in a bad mood?”

    “It’s nothing, just that the Safe Zone is strictly quarantined, and I’m stuck at home all day, feeling bored,” Ai Yi said.

    Ai Wei smiled and said, “Haha, you won’t be bored alone anymore. I’m about to arrive at the B City Safe Zone. We’ll all be bored together then.”

    Ai Yi was silent for another two seconds. Her voice suddenly rose, and she said, “You’re coming to the B City Safe Zone?”

    Ai Wei felt that her tone was a little off, as if she wasn’t very happy that he was coming to the B City Safe Zone.

    “Yeah, I should be there in about an hour,” Ai Wei said. “What’s wrong? Why do I feel like you’re not very happy?”

    “No, it’s just a little sudden,” Ai Yi denied. “Didn’t you say that you were doing pretty well in Youran Mountain Villa? Why did you want to come to the Safe Zone again?”

    Although Ai Yi said this, Ai Wei still felt that she wasn’t happy about his arrival and couldn’t help but frown.

    “Sis, are you hiding something from me?” he asked.

    “No, why would you think that?” Ai Yi said.

    “Which residential complex are you in in the Safe Zone? I’ll go find you when I get to the Safe Zone,” Ai Wei said.

    Ai Yi was silent again…

    Ai Wei’s bad feeling grew stronger. He frowned and said, “Sis, what exactly is going on? You can tell me anything that’s happening, and I’ll help you.”

    “Xiao Wei, I’ll be relieved if you take care of yourself,” Ai Yi said. “Don’t come looking for me. I’m not in the B City Safe Zone, but I’m very safe. It’s just that I have some personal reasons and it’s not convenient for me to live in the Safe Zone. In short, you take care of yourself and don’t get into any danger. If anything happens to me, I’ll contact you again.”

    She hung up the phone after she finished speaking.

    “Sis, what do you mean by this?! Sis!” Ai Wei was a little anxious when he heard her hang up the phone. He called again, but Ai Yi had already turned off her phone.

    Xia Junchi was driving. Seeing this, he turned around and asked, “What’s wrong? Did something happen to your sister?”

    Ai Wei said anxiously, “She said she’s not in the B City Safe Zone and told me not to look for her, and that she’ll contact me herself.”

    Xia Junchi frowned when he heard this.

    Ai Wei called his brother-in-law and Shao Yang again, but their phones were also turned off.

    They weren’t answering the phone, and Ai Wei didn’t know how to find them.

    He put down his phone a little dejectedly, and many bad thoughts flooded his mind.

    “The fact that your sister said that means there must be a special reason. She should be safe now,” Xia Junchi comforted him.

    Ai Wei sighed and said, “I hope so. My sister seems to have a very good temper, but she’s actually very stubborn. It’s basically impossible to change what she’s decided.”

    Not only was Ai Yi like this, but so was his second sister, Ai Mei, who had been dead for many years. Back then, Ai Mei fell in love with a man and was determined to be with him. Even though everyone around her said that the man wasn’t a good person, she still firmly married him.

    Thinking of Ai Mei’s tragic ending, Ai Wei couldn’t help but feel even more uneasy.

    At two o’clock in the afternoon, they finally arrived at the B City Safe Zone.

    The B City Safe Zone was built in a very remote place. Along the way, they saw almost no houses or people nearby. The Safe Zone’s thick walls, which were 20 meters high, made people feel very safe. But Ai Wei now had something on his mind, and he no longer had the same anticipation for coming to the Safe Zone as before.

    The walls of the Safe Zone were closed, with only four gates open in the east, west, north, and south. Below the gates, there was also a small door. Ai Wei and his group followed the army’s vehicles and stopped at the entrance, then lined up to go to the small door for inspection.

    Six people in protective suits took their temperatures and blood samples one by one. After finding that there were no problems, they checked the things they had brought. Only after the inspection was completed did they open the gate and let them drive in.

    But the inspection didn’t mean that they could stay in the Safe Zone. Because the Zombie Virus also had an incubation period, they had to be quarantined in a specific place for two days before they could be assigned houses and move around in the Safe Zone.

    The group had known these procedures for a long time, so they had no objections at this time and went to the quarantine rooms arranged by the Safe Zone in full cooperation.

    The Safe Zone had only been established recently, and many facilities were still very simple. Moreover, most of the houses were just adobe houses, and there weren’t even bricks for building the houses. These houses were very simple and quick to make. Just mold the shape with mud and then bake it dry. The roofs were all made of colored steel, and the doors and windows were simple wood, which was no problem for blocking wind and rain. However, once the doors and windows were closed, the room would be plunged into darkness.

    Fortunately, it was only early autumn, and the weather wasn’t cold, so most people kept their windows open during the day.

    The room Ai Wei was assigned to was also very simple in appearance, with gray walls. The 10-square-meter space only had two small beds and a wardrobe. However, the toilet and bathroom were matching, which was very convenient to use.

    This was a double room, so Ai Wei naturally stayed with Xia Junchi. Han Lu and Li Xiaxia lived next door to them on the east, and Doctor Li and Lan Ting and Zheng Anhe lived next door to them on the west. They could get together to have a meal or chat when they had nothing to do.

    Before Lu Feng left, he added Ai Wei and Xia Junchi’s WeChat accounts and told them to look for him after the quarantine was over. He also said that as ability users, they should join the army and train their abilities. As long as they could enter the army, their abilities could at least be guaranteed to increase by two levels. And in the B City Safe Zone, Lu Feng’s army was definitely the most outstanding group there.

    Especially Ai Wei, Lu Feng was very envious of Ai Wei’s ability. He looked like he couldn’t wait to pull Ai Wei into his team right away.

    After Lu Feng left, Ai Wei discussed with Xia Junchi, “Should we join his ability user team?”

    Based on their contact with this team, the team was relatively easy to get along with and didn’t have any problems. Especially the team leader, Lu Feng, whose ability was said to have reached level three, which was considered the most outstanding in the Safe Zone.

    Xia Junchi thought for a moment, “We just arrived and don’t know enough about the B City Safe Zone. Let’s wait a few days and learn more about them.”

    Ai Wei felt that what he said made sense, so he nodded and said, “Then we’ll inquire about the situation in the Safe Zone these two days. I’ll release my mental power and follow Lu Feng to take a look.”

    After saying that, he released a wisp of mental power and followed Lu Feng.

    Xia Junchi saw that he closed his eyes, knowing that he was using his ability, so he didn’t disturb him.

    Ai Wei felt that if Lu Feng handed over the mutated grapes to the Safe Zone and recommended him for credit, he would join Lu Feng’s team. If Lu Feng didn’t do this, it would prove that Lu Feng’s character wasn’t good, and he would look for another team.

    His mental power could now extend very far, although he couldn’t hear the sounds from afar. But it could also be used to understand some situations.

    Lu Feng’s car kept driving inside, turning two corners before stopping in front of a large courtyard.

    Two soldiers were standing outside the gate of the courtyard. After Lu Feng took out his documents and said something to them, the soldiers let them in.

    The car stopped in the courtyard, and then an ability user soldier went into the nearby building to report. Lu Feng and several ability user soldiers carried the mutated grape tree, which had been tied up, off the car.

    Soon, several people came out of the building. The leader was an old man with a slightly slow pace. After Lu Feng said a few words to him, his expression became a little excited.

    Ai Wei couldn’t hear what they were saying and couldn’t help but feel depressed. He felt that he should just learn lip reading, so that he could see but not hear, which was like scratching an itch from outside his boot and not feeling good.

    The old man patted Lu Feng on the shoulder and said a few more words. Then, he ordered people to carry the mutated grape tree onto the car again.

    They started the car and left with the mutated grape tree. If Ai Wei’s mental power was stretched into threads, it could still be released very far. So, his mental power followed the car and came to another courtyard.

    Lu Feng stopped the car in the courtyard, and then everyone got out of the car and carried the mutated grape tree into the building in the courtyard.

    Ai Wei’s mental power followed them and touched many pieces of equipment along the way. He suddenly thought that this should be inside the research institute. And those pieces of equipment should be scientific research equipment.

    Thinking of the research institute, his mind couldn’t help but conjure up the scenes he had seen in those apocalyptic novels before, where some crazy scientists used ability users for experiments, and he immediately became vigilant.

    He felt that it was necessary to get to the bottom of this research institute.

    Although the Safe Zone was outwardly promoting light, greatness, and righteousness, and he was willing to believe in the government of the Safe Zone, he was a person with a lot of paranoia and felt that it was safer to find out the details himself first.

    So, after Lu Feng handed the mutated grapes over to the staff of the research institute, his mental power didn’t follow Lu Feng away. Instead, it turned over the research institute inside and out, thoroughly examining it. He even checked whether there were basements and hidden compartments and ultimately only found that there were several zombies locked up inside this research institute. There was nothing else suspicious.

    He retracted his mental power and felt a little tired.

    “How is it?” Xia Junchi asked when he saw him retract his ability.

    Ai Wei rubbed his temples and told him what he had sensed with his ability.

    Xia Junchi nodded without saying much, only saying, “Eat something and rest for a while.”

    They had missed lunch when they came, so they could only eat some snacks they had brought with them now.

    Ai Wei ate a few small bread rolls and drank half a bottle of mineral water before lying down to rest. Every time he used his ability, his mental power would be consumed a lot, and he needed to rest well to replenish it.

    He lay down for a while and fell asleep.

    When he woke up, it was already 4 PM.

    Xia Junchi was training his ability. The orange-yellow flame was dancing in his palm. Compared to when he had just awakened his ability yesterday, this small flame had grown a circle.

    Ai Wei looked at his focused training and felt that serious men were indeed the most handsome.

    Xia Junchi was too focused on training and didn’t notice Ai Wei’s gaze. When his ability was exhausted and the flame in his palm went out, he noticed that Ai Wei was looking at him with a smile.

    Ai Wei’s smile was very gentle and warm. Xia Junchi looked at his smiling appearance and suddenly felt that it was like a peerless painting. The artistic conception was lingering and long, deeply falling into his heart.

    He couldn’t help but show a smile and sat down next to Ai Wei’s bed, saying, “What are you looking at?”

    Ai Wei felt that his smiling appearance was handsome and soul-stirring. His face couldn’t help but heat up, and his heart beat faster, but he couldn’t bear to look away.

    He didn’t know if it was because of Xia Junchi’s ability, but he always felt that the room seemed very hot.

    The eyes of the two of them were intertwined, bursting out with subtle but numbing sparks. Then they got closer and closer, and kissed each other.

    Ai Wei felt that Xia Junchi’s lips seemed to be much hotter than before, possibly because fire-type ability users had higher body temperatures. However, he didn’t have time to think about this at this time. All his mind was attracted to Xia Junchi’s warm and sweet lips. He closed his eyes and passionately felt the sweetness and enthusiasm of Xia Junchi’s lips.

    This kiss lasted for a short time, and by the time they separated, they were both a little breathless.

    Ai Wei’s hand was already around Xia Junchi’s waist, and the smooth, warm, and tight sensation under his palm was wonderfully fascinating. His heart was itchy, and he wanted to go further. However, Xia Junchi’s hand was also on his waist. Judging from Xia Junchi’s aggressive gaze, he also wanted to go further.

    This was a bit of a stalemate. They were both tops, and neither of them wanted to be on the bottom.

    Don’t look at Ai Wei’s handsome and unassuming appearance, he was actually a pure top. And although Xia Junchi had been with boyfriends, he had always been on top. So, two tops were sleeping in the same bed, and they both wanted to eat each other, which meant that they had been sleeping in the same bed for more than half a month, but they still hadn’t reached a consensus on this.

    Ai Wei looked at the handsome man in front of him, and his desire couldn’t help but grow stronger. A thought couldn’t help but pop into his head. If he forced himself, could he get Xia Junchi?

    Of course, he was just thinking about it and wouldn’t really do it.

    Xia Junchi looked at his eager eyes and also felt a little difficult.

    Actually, before Ai Wei confessed to him, he hadn’t realized that Ai Wei was also gay. He didn’t understand why he had quickly recognized that Ye Cong was a bottom the first time he met Ye Cong. But with Ai Wei, he had been colleagues with Ai Wei for two years, and he still hadn’t seen Ai Wei’s sexuality. Later, he gradually understood that this was probably because Ai Wei was a top.

    He could quickly identify bottoms, but it was difficult to identify tops. Although he occasionally liked to look at straight handsome men, he basically wouldn’t consider whether those men were tops or bottoms.

    He always thought that he would find a bottom, but he didn’t expect to be with a top.

    Two tops could only comfort each other, although they both wanted to top each other.

    Sometimes when he saw Ai Wei’s fiery eyes, he even felt that Ai Wei wanted to force himself. Fortunately, Ai Wei was still a relatively rational person. Otherwise, if Ai Wei insisted on topping him, he might not really be Ai Wei’s opponent.

    His ability had only been awakened yesterday and was still very weak. But Ai Wei’s ability had been awakened for more than a month. Although it wasn’t an attack-type ability, it was still much stronger than his ability. And the stronger the ability, the better the physique. So, his strength was definitely not as good as Ai Wei’s now.

    Moreover, as far as he knew, the earlier the ability was awakened, the better the ability talent. Ai Wei awakened his ability on the day the zombies broke out and was among the first batch of people to awaken their abilities.

    And not only was his ability awakened late, but it was also awakened because he ate the mutated fruit. His ability talent should be much worse than Ai Wei’s. In addition, Ai Wei was hardworking and smart. It was unlikely that he would be able to surpass Ai Wei in the future through hard work.

    Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but feel a little depressed.

    Sleeping in the same bed for more than half a month, it wasn’t just Ai Wei who wanted to go all the way, he also wanted to.

    But he had to grasp a degree. Otherwise, if the two of them really fought in bed, he would definitely be the one to suffer.

    So, Xia Junchi hesitated for only a moment before deciding not to go all the way with Ai Wei this time.

    Although it was a bit of a pity not to go all the way, it felt pretty good to kiss, touch, hug, and satisfy each other’s physical needs.

    During these two days of quarantine, they didn’t have to cook for themselves. At the appointed time, staff would deliver the food to the door. Breakfast included buns, fried dough sticks, small green vegetables, and porridge. Lunch included various shredded pork noodles, egg noodles, rice, and side dishes. Dinner included steamed buns, green vegetables with porridge, which could be considered rich.

    Unable to go out, and with nothing else to do, the two of them spent most of their time training. When they were tired from training, they would cuddle in bed or play on their phones.

    During these two days, Ai Wei had used his ability to explore the neighborhood.

    The Safe Zone was divided into more than a dozen small districts by high walls. The district they were in now was the closest to the city gate. It was full of people who had just entered the city. Although the quarantine time was only two days, because there were many people entering the city, the quarantine rooms were still not enough. Many people could only wait outside the city or squeeze two or three people into one room.

    Ai Wei’s mental power slowly expanded, covering everyone who passed by, distinguishing whether they were ability users or ordinary people. If they were ability users, he would then distinguish what their ability was.

    He even covered the entrance of the Safe Zone with his ability, observing everyone who entered and exited the Safe Zone. He really found a lot of ability users.

    The strength of these ability users was different. Some people’s abilities were so strong that they were exposed, while others’ abilities were very weak. If he didn’t feel carefully, he could hardly detect that they had abilities.

    And the people with strong abilities were basically soldiers who went out to perform tasks. The people with weak abilities were ordinary people who came to seek refuge in the Safe Zone.

    Then, he put his ability in the inner area of the Safe Zone again.

    The Safe Zone was divided into several areas by walls. He explored one area after another, observing the situation in various places. Then he found that the situation in the Safe Zone was similar to what was said on the Internet.

    Because it had to accommodate a large number of people, each room was built relatively small. Many rooms could only fit a few small beds. There were single rooms that were only two meters long and two meters wide. There were also double rooms that were two meters long and 6 meters wide. There were also family rooms that could fit several beds. In short, the space was very small, which made people feel a little stuffy.

    These rooms didn’t have toilets. They could only share a toilet in a corridor. The rooms were too small and didn’t have kitchens, but people didn’t need to cook. When it was time for meals, the heads of each district would carry the food over, and they could eat ready-made meals.

    Because this was a very special time, in order to comfort the people’s stuffy mood, the food was still good, and there was no shortage of meat and eggs. However, if you wanted to eat better, you needed to exchange contribution points.

    Because the activity space was too small, the vast majority of people could only lie in bed and play on their mobile phones. Some of the beds were empty. Maybe they hadn’t been occupied yet, or maybe the owners of the beds had gone out to work.

    The Safe Zone was still under construction, and there were many people building houses on the construction site in the outer city. There were also people doing transportation, sanitation, research, etc. However, these jobs weren’t many, and most people could only stay in their rooms and play on their mobile phones.

    Ai Wei also used his ability to go to the research institute and the core area of the Safe Zone to learn some basic information about these two places. Soon, the two-day quarantine period was over.

    According to the rules of the Safe Zone, they would be arranged to be assigned housing. However, before the two of them could find the relevant departments, Lu Feng came over.

    Lu Feng handed a string of keys to Ai Wei and said with a smile, “Because you found the mutated grape tree, this is a reward from the leaders. It’s a two-bedroom, one-living room in the south of the city, but it only has simple decoration. You have to get the furniture and appliances yourself.”

    Ai Wei was stunned. He had thought that Lu Feng would report his credit for finding the mutated grapes, but now that he saw that Lu Feng had really recommended him for credit, and the Safe Zone had rewarded him with a house, he was still a little surprised.

    Lu Feng then took out a card and said, “This is a new card issued by the Safe Zone. It has 100,000 contribution points in it, and you can use it to buy things in the Safe Zone.”

    After the Zombie outbreak, RMB became a pile of waste paper. But the Safe Zone still needed currency to circulate, so the Safe Zone issued this new type of stored-value card. The contribution points inside could be used to buy things in the Safe Zone’s major supermarkets. Because the various supplies at this time were provided by the Safe Zone government, this card could almost buy everything in the Safe Zone’s supermarkets.

    In addition to this stored-value card, the Safe Zone also opened a new mobile phone bank. As long as you downloaded the mobile phone bank APP, you could pay with your mobile phone. The salaries of various positions in the Safe Zone were also issued on this card. Ai Wei and Xia Junchi had just arrived at the Safe Zone and hadn’t applied for a card yet, so Lu Feng came to them with the house keys.

    After Lu Feng gave the things to Ai Wei, he asked, “Have you thought about it? Do you want to join my team?”

    Ai Wei looked at Xia Junchi, and Xia Junchi nodded to him. They had already discussed it before. If Lu Feng didn’t hide Ai Wei’s credit, they would join Lu Feng’s team. Of course, the premise was that the two of them would be together.

    Ai Wei said to Lu Feng, “We’re together.”

    Lu Feng said, “You can both join my team, but I want to state in advance that some of the tasks we do are very dangerous. So you have to undergo training first, and you can only participate in tasks if you pass.”

    Ai Wei and Xia Junchi had no objections to this. They didn’t have much combat power now. If they participated in dangerous tasks, it would be irresponsible for their own lives.

    Lu Feng was in a very good mood to get Ai Wei, this living radar, and even wanted to take Ai Wei to their newly assigned house in person. However, at this time, Zheng Anhe’s father came over.

    After arriving at the Safe Zone, they had contacted Zheng Anhe’s father. But because the quarantine area didn’t allow people to enter and exit casually, Zheng Anhe’s father hadn’t come over in the past two days.

    Now that they could leave the quarantine area, Zheng Anhe’s father came over.

    Zheng Anhe’s father was a man in his forties with the temperament of a very successful person, named Zheng Jianguo. He had come to the Safe Zone very early and had now reached a management position in the Safe Zone.

    Zheng Anhe hadn’t forgotten his father either and quickly recognized Zheng Jianguo.

    Ai Wei had originally been a little worried that Zheng Jianguo didn’t care about Zheng Anhe. Now that he saw their father and son being close, he couldn’t help but feel relieved.

    “Thank you for taking care of my son during this time,” Zheng Jianguo said to everyone, hugging Zheng Anhe.

    During this time, they had lived in Youran Mountain Villa and used a lot of things in Youran Mountain Villa, which could be considered Zheng Jianguo’s paid “babysitting fee.” But in this dangerous end of the world, if the few of them hadn’t protected Zheng Anhe, Zheng Anhe, a three-year-old child, would probably be in danger. So Zheng Jianguo was still very grateful to them.

    After exchanging a few polite words, Zheng Jianguo said that he would arrange housing for them.

    Ai Wei and Xia Junchi already had houses, but Han Lu and Doctor Li hadn’t been assigned housing yet. Hearing Zheng Jianguo say this, the eyes of the two of them lit up.

    The houses that Zheng Jianguo arranged for them were the same as other houses, but the location and orientation were better than other houses. Han Lu and Doctor Li were both very satisfied after seeing them.

    So, they moved their things over. And the place where Ai Wei and Xia Junchi lived was in another district, so they couldn’t live with them anymore.

    Although they had only been together for less than a month, everyone felt a little reluctant to separate now. However, there was nothing they could do about it.

    For a time, everyone was immersed in the reluctant atmosphere of parting.

    “If you encounter anything in the future, you can come to us,” Ai Wei said.

    Doctor Li nodded and said, “You too.”

    Han Lu felt very reluctant when she thought that everyone was going to separate and said, “Everyone should keep in touch often in the future!”

    Zheng Anhe had found his father, but Lan Ting was alone.

    Among his relatives, the only one he could contact was a cousin. That cousin was still in the D City Safe Zone, and he wasn’t very familiar with him.

    His mother had worked in the Zheng family for several years. It could be said that he had grown up in the Zheng family. In his heart, Zheng Anhe was closer than his blood relatives. In addition, for Zheng Anhe, Lan Ting, who often accompanied him, had a deeper relationship than Zheng Jianguo, whom he didn’t see often, and didn’t want to leave Lan Ting. So Zheng Jianguo thought that his son had suffered a major change, and it would be good to have a familiar person by his side, so he took Lan Ting with him as well.

    Note
