Pan Weihu's eyes lit up in a flash, very excited.
So there really was gossip, how fascinating~
Speaking of it, this Ji Anran's skin was quite white and tender, just like a shelled egg, really sends ripples through one’s heart and mind.
During the apocalypse, a lot of people were sallow and emaciated, such that one wouldn’t even want to look at them closely. So for Ji Anran, who was a handsome young man before the apocalypse occurred, during the apocalypse, his level of appearance suddenly seemed even more outstanding.
Ji Anran, who was being looked at with such fixed eyes, felt very uncomfortable.
So he shrunk behind Geng Yan before giving the other’s sleeve a tug.
"Geng-ge, that man has been staring at me..."
Naturally, Geng Yan had also noticed, and his gaze fell on Pan Weihu, the scrutiny and threat within his eyes could not be more obvious.
Pan Weihu felt a chill run down his back and quickly withdrew his gaze.
However, precisely because of this, the rebellious mentality he had in his heart actually started to burn.
A man that Geng Yan could take a fancy to, who was also good-looking... The only thing was, he wonders what the other taste like?
"We are still investigating the thieves who broke into your house. The blood left at the scene has already been collected. We wonder if you have anyone you’re suspecting?" asked a policeman.
"You guys can still test DNA nowadays?" Ji Anran blinked. “I suspect Wang Long. His family has some resentment against me, and he had visited me at home not very long ago. Although I didn't invite him inside, he definitely saw the living room that was behind me from the door… I had already thought he was acting quite weird at the time.”
"Okay, then we will go to the Wangs' family to investigate. In the meantime, we still hope that you would continue to wait for any news. As for the DNA testing... The security within the base is already like it is, so if we didn't upgrade some of these investigation-related technologies, then everything would have long become a mess."
Ji Anran couldn’t help but laugh.
After leaving the public safety bureau, Ji Anran slowly strolled through the street while hugging Geng Yan's arm.
At first glance, it quite seemed like two people who were shopping around while on a date.
"Geng-ge, who do you think it was that ran to my house that night?"
Geng Yan's face again darkened a few degrees. "I believe it is precisely Wang Long. After all, there are only those countably few who have any resentment against you. Although there have always been many thieves lurking inside the base, we had only just gotten back, and the news shouldn’t have spread that far yet. So the people, who know you're an ordinary person and live there alone, there are only those."
"We also don't know whether Wang Long has already run away. If he did... Then that would really p★ss me off." Ji Anran looked very indignant, it was faked quite realistically.
The reason why he hadn’t mentioned Wang Long yesterday in front of the police was precisely to give him a chance to run. Hehe, it would only be fun if he had to dodge and hide around the base like a street mouse~
Then when they’re about done with the investigation, he will offer up a level 1 nucleus as a reward. Although his companions wouldn’t betray him for a small thing like this... The vast number of impoverished residents of the base wouldn’t be able to bear to give up this opportunity. So unless Wang Long planned to hide inside the house for the rest of his life, otherwise he would definitely be recognized by someone’s sharp-eyes~
"If he really was the one who did it, I won’t let go of him," Geng Yan tightly held Ji Anran's hand as he promised. "However, we still have something more important to do. Come with me."
The two continued to walk along, and a familiar building slowly appeared in their line of sight - the base affairs hall.
"Geng-ge, what are we here for?" Ji Anran was completely confused.
Geng Yan tightened his hold of Ji Anran’s hand. “The small community’s level of safety over here isn’t high enough. I'm going to sign up for an inner-city housing project of the base. A lot of the nearby survivors having been running over to join the base, they’re almost out of housing.”
"Moreover, with so many people, even more food would be needed. In order to produce enough food, the base would then need to build more greenhouses and poultry farms..."
"The base is going to be expanded?" Ji Anran pretended to be bewildered.
In fact, this situation was actually quite common in his previous life. In the beginning, there weren’t as many people in the base, so the area was small. But in order to produce more supplies, the base needed to be developed and expanded.
After all, even if there were a lot of supplies still outside, it would still be used up one day. It wasn’t possible to just rely on collecting supplies to live out the rest of their lives. Moreover, food isn’t like the other daily necessities, the limited time before the food would go bad was a real concern.
"En, the expansion will be soon. The executives of the base have been busy recently preparing the various things necessary. After they finish all the planning, then construction would start."
Ji Anran appeared expectant. "Now that we have earth-type ability users and metal-type abilities users the speed of construction would definitely be very fast."
Geng Yan got a copy of the information from one of the staff at the window and brought Ji Anran to the chairs nearby to sit down.
"When expanding the base, they will choose a place to build the city wall, creating small circular districts. Take a look, here is the current appearance of the base. At that time, they will build a small inner-city next to it for the base’s executives and certain technicians to live, there will be a lot of confidential things inside. "
Geng Yan's fingertips slid across the map before stopping at a residential area.
"This is a residential area. I’ve seen the houses there, they are relatively new and should have been built for only two or three years. The things to connect to water and electricity had already been repaired before the apocalypse while the damage after the start of the apocalypse hasn’t been large. During the expansion, a safe residential area will be built here specifically for the families of ability users. The house prices here are very high, but the base will take responsibility for property management, solving the security problem."
"To only let ability users live there, the ordinary people would probably have some opinions about it?" Ji Anran asked as if he didn’t know.
"Well, it’s not really just for ability users, just that if one wasn’t an ability user, very few ordinary people would be able to afford it. The main thing is that a lot of ability users would have to go out to search for supplies while those who join the governing departments of the base would also need to go out for missions. So what if, when they were out, other people took the opportunity to break into their home, such that even their family might be in danger, what then?"
"You plan to have me move into this new neighborhood?" Ji Anran raised an eyebrow.
Geng Yan nodded. "It's too dangerous killing zombies outside, I can’t rest assured bringing you with me. I was originally going to settle you in that previous community, but my face has already been slapped swollen from last night’s incident. Fortunately, there is still this perfect solution."
Ji Anran: “......”
But I don’t want to be left here at all!
In the beginning, he lied and claimed that he was an ordinary person in order to entangle himself with Geng-ge. But now... If he confessed, Geng-ge, who has been lied to for so long, would probably be so angry that the other would beat his b★tt★cks until it’s swollen. Then he’d be properly cold~
But if Geng-ge was so angry that he decides to do him until his b★tt★cks are swollen, well then, for that there might still be hope turning this around~
But with Geng-ge's self-control, haha, how could that be possible?
"Anran, what are you thinking about?" Geng Yan warmly asked.
Ji Anran with his heavy guilty conscience. "Nothing."
"Take a look, these are some of the houses that haven't been sold yet. Take a look and see which one you’d like?"
Ji Anran tightly gripped the real estate information without letting go as he pursed his lips and asked, "At that time, we’ll be separated again, so can't you just let me think about it for a while longer?"
"The prices here are too high. I was only planning to buy a unit, so at that time, we’ll be living together. I had considered buying you a separate unit as well, but when I thought about it more carefully, it would have been better to just keep those supplies for you to use."
A smile crept across Ji Anran’s face, and he beamed with pleasure as he started to attentive choose.
"Geng-ge, what do you think, how many rooms do you want in our home?"
Geng Yan: “......”
Our home? This sounded fine to the ear, but why did it seem like there was something wrong with it?
By the time that the police arrived at Wang Long's home, Wang Long had already disappeared without a trace.
Meanwhile, due to her guilty conscience, Mother Wang's voice was a few degrees louder than usual. She was also too panicked as she hoped to use anger to cover up her guilty heart.
"My family’s Wang Xing is already gone, but my family still needs to continue living. The rent here is also not low, and we don't want to move out, so we could only have Wang Long go out to find work."
"Then what time will he be back in the evening?" asked a policeman.
"How would I know? Whenever he goes out, he would only come back after he manages to earn some supplies. I also don't know where he goes. It’s not like he’s still a child, that he would come back home after the school lets out..." Mother Wang kept chattering incessantly.
She adamantly insisted that Wang Long had gone out to work and that his return date was uncertain.
The DNA report came out a week later, and Wang Long was confirmed to be the thief who broke into Ji Anran's house that day.
Ji Anran gazed out of the window at the street where people were coming and going, his lips quirked up and he chuckled. "Having hiding here for a whole week, what kind of life is this~ Geng-ge, let's go visit the Wang family and ask for compensation for the trauma."
Mother Wang was crying her heart out that she didn't want to compensate them with supplies, but Ji Anran wasn’t a kind person either. After finding a person of the base to mediate and confirm the suitable amount of compensation, he hired professional debt collectors to visit their door.
At this time, debt collecting was no longer as mild as it was before the apocalypse. During the apocalypse, supplies were essential to survival.
So when in debt, it was really possible for one’s hands and feet to be chopped off. After all, it can be eaten, no?
How would Mother Wang ever dare to provoke these jinxes, so she could only suffer patiently and silently and pay the compensation.
Ji Anran happily celebrated with Geng Yan after he finally got the supplies.
Seeing Ji Anran's high spirited appearance, Geng Yan couldn't help but feel an upsurge of emotions.
Ji Anran was very happy and drank a lot of wine to liven things up. Then when the alcohol finally hit, he staggeringly wandered into the bedroom and went to sleep.
Geng Yan, who was still psychologically preparing himself: “......”
In his helplessness, Geng Yan could only help Ji Anran wipe his face and take off his shoes before covering the other with the duvet.
Ji Anran's small face was flushed and eyes blurred, appearing particularly tender and attractive.
Geng Yan had also drunk a few mouthfuls of wine, so his brain was also a bit excited.
"Hot."
Ji Anran muttered in a daze as he kicked aside the duvet and tugged at his clothes. Then because the shirt had slid to one side, his smooth shoulder became exposed, bright and lustrous like a piece of beautiful jade.
Because of his body heating up, Ji Anran found it difficult to endure and kept twisting his body, a posture which was so enchanting that it made people spurt blood!
Geng Yan was expressionless... But then, shamefully hardened.
He silently walked away and went into the bathroom to relieve his desire using his hands.
Meanwhile, Ji Anran was feeling very uncomfortable and even wanted to vomit. So at this moment, with slightly recovered senses, he staggered out of bed and walked towards the bathroom as well.
With a ‘click’, the bathroom door was opened, and Ji Anran walked in.
Having been close to climaxing, Geng Yan’s expression stiffened as he tried to remain motionless like a sculpture.
The author has something to say:
Big Boss Ji did his best trying to seduce~Geng Yan remained unmoved.
Big Boss Ji with no intention to seduce~
Geng Yan: “......” Excuse me, I need to go to the bathroom.

and when he puts his face close to the toilet (to vomit), it might end up unexpectedly close to a certain someone elses' appendage...
ReplyDeletethanks for the chapter!
Ahahah... Honestly though... Not sure if the toilets still work at this point of the apocalypse... Sounds too luxurious.
