The decision to buy a house has already been made, so coming up, Ji Anran started preparing the renovation of their future new home.
In a small notebook, he started writing down the details of how the new home should be renovated.
"Geng-ge, what else do you think we should add? Do you think our living room will be too drab, should we find some plastic flowers to fill a vase as decoration?”
Hearing the nth question about renovation, a thin layer of sweat appeared on Geng Yan’s forehead. "Whatever you decide on is fine, it doesn’t matter what kind of place I live in."
Ji Anran’s gaze swept around the living room. "En, I can tell. Your house appears as if it had already been looted once, then because you were just too poor, you only bought a few essential pieces of furniture to place back. If the other team members hadn’t known that you had a powerful ability, they would probably wonder whether there would truly be a future following you after seeing your house."
Geng Yan: “......”
It has to be said, this summarization by Ji Anran was quite accurate.
Geng Yan raised his hand and cleared his throat with a cough. "The expansion of the base is about to start. I will need to join the base’s temporary clearing team to clean up the zombies around the base."
"You need to go out?" Ji Anran's small face suddenly paled. "Then I..."
"Go pack a bag, I'll take you to the hotel to settle down first. That side is part of the residential area of the teams under the base’s management, no one would dare to go there to cause trouble. I have to take part in this mission in our to grab a house in the new district for ability users. So it would be easier to manage, there are only those few residential buildings in the area while the rest would be public buildings such as shops, so it’s not that easy to grab one of the quotas."
Each of the units that were waiting to be sold was particularly large, directly occupying one whole floor. A whole floor is actually not considered to be that large for ability users; after all, aside from the fact that a whole family would be living there, they still needed to use the space to store supplies.
The base was still currently preparing everything. At that time, key cards for the houses would be issued, such that aside from the ones held by the base’s property management personnel, all other magnetic key cards would only allow the ability users to reach their own floor, so the degrees of safety would be greatly improved.
Ji Anran’s small hand was tightly clenched, it was only after a good while had passed before he answered, "Okay."
"Wait until I finish, then I'll come back and teach you how to fight. During this period, try your best not to leave the residential area for base personnel, okay? Also, if you run into any problems, just yell. They have the most security staff there..."
Because of his worry, Geng Yan repeatedly warned and advised the other.
Meanwhile, Ji Anran's was completely downcasted and couldn’t manage to bring his energy up until the day he had to send Geng Yan off.
"Geng-ge, I’ll be waiting for you to come back here at the base. May a favorable wind send you safely home." Ji Anran walked over and gave Geng Yan a hug.
As the two people were about to part, Geng Yan didn't bother to fuss at whether this action was too intimate.
He embraced Ji Anran in this hug for a long time before letting go. "Take care of yourself. My friend will be staying back to watch over the base this time. If you need anything or anything happens, you can go find him, okay?"
"En."
Ji Anran’s eyes stayed on Geng Yan's distant figure as he silently clenched his fist.
Seeing Geng-ge go like this was really too vexing, he absolutely doesn't want to experience such a thing ever again!
Ji Anran turned back to return to where he was currently residing, picked up the crossbow, and directly went back out.
He wanted to join Geng-ge's team of ability users and accompany the other to kill zombies outside.
Although he couldn’t expose his wind-type ability right now, he has another idea.
Pan Weihu liked men, but it wasn’t as if he particularly liked Ji Anran’s type.
But perhaps because what one cannot get would always be the best in their heart, after having ‘barely caught a glimpse of the passing beauty’, Pan Weihu kept anxiously longing for the other, finding the other unforgettable.
The new houses for ability users were highly attractive to everyone, such that his brother and Geng Yan were both participating in the required mission.
It was almost time for everyone to head out, and Pan Weihu also couldn't help himself anymore and went to a restaurant near where Ji Anran was currently living, ordered a drink, and sat there waiting for the other.
Nothing in the restaurant was cheap or affordable, and typically only ability users or the higher-ups of the base could afford it. Moreover, it was also only in this area that one could find restaurants that still had some artistic style.
Seeing that Geng Yan had walked away, Pan Weihu looked at the hotel where Ji Anran was staying, pondering how he was going to lure him out.
"Geng Yan would have definitely told him not to randomly run around..." Pan Weihu raised his hand and tried to ‘clean’ his eyes.
Ji Anran really did run out!
"This innocent and naive little lamb~ There are so many ability users and regular people with weapons who liked to band together inside the base, even with a crossbow, it still won’t guarantee you safety."
Pan Weihu stared at Ji Anran, while all sorts of feelings welled up in his mind.
He took a step forward planning to go out but then suddenly stopped. He had only planned to take a look and scout things out today and hadn’t prepared any toys at all.
Pan Weihu looked towards the side and instructed, "Chen Xiaohui, you come over. Go and help me buy..."
After Pan Weihu finished ordering Chen Xiaohui, he went and assigned another person to investigate what Ji Anran was doing.
In the evening as the sun was setting, the horizon has been dyed red by the resplendent evening glow.
Ji Anran finally came back to somewhere near the residential area, next to him there was even a rather seductive-looking man. The two walked side by side, seeming to be having a great conversation.
"Fortunately, Geng Yan had left in the afternoon, otherwise, my b★tt★cks would have longed grown numb from having to sit an entire day."
Pan Weihu patted his b★tt★cks, then walked directly out.
Chen Xiaohui was only too glad to be able to see Ji Anran make a fool of himself, so naturally, he followed closely. As for persuading Pan Weihu to stop, he just didn’t dare~
Pan Weihu swaggered out with two attendants, blocking Ji Anran and the other person’s path.
If this had happened on any other day, Ji Anran would have directly drawn his crossbow without another word.
But where they were was already very close to the hotel, and there was even an ability user right next to him, whose strength shouldn’t be underestimated. He wasn’t worried regarding the question of safety, instead, he especially wanted to see what this silly younger brother of a ‘landlord’ wanted to do.
Pan Weilong had a bad relationship with Geng-ge, so naturally, he has also heard of some news about the other. He knew a thing or two about Pan Weihu, hearing that the other was ignorant and incompetent yet haven’t done much of anything bad.
"Ji Anran, can, can I speak to you alone?"
Ji Anran’s expression seemed one of panic, like a small white flower that had been battered by the wind and rain, particularly weak, fringing on pitiful.
"What, what do you want to do? If you have something to say, just say it here. I’m not going to go with you."
The expression of the ability user on the side became cold. “What are you trying to do? If you plan to mess around, don't blame us for being rude.”
Pan Weihu ignored the ability user’s threat and sighed. "Forget it, I can understand your wariness."
He reached his hand into the gift bag and dug out a huge broccoli.
"I had heard that some problems have come up in your relationship with Geng Yan. In fact, I had been paying attention to you for a long time. I'm willing to keep you, can you give me a chance?"
Ji Anran: “......”
The most enchanting bouquet of the apocalypse along with the most touching words of love of the apocalypse... As a man who was ‘already taken’, unexpectedly, he could also receive them.
He had always paid attention to displaying the image of being lovelorn and hoping to reconcile with Geng-ge in front of the masses. So where were these people getting their news from?
The author has something to say:
Ji Anran: "Geng-ge, let’s get back together~"
Geng Yan: "Forget it."
Ji Anran: "Geng-ge, last night..."
Geng Yan: "You hallucinated."
Ji An: "Geng-ge, I want to join your team of ability users."
Geng Yan: “...Who’s this man surrounded by such lasciviousness?”
