Chapter 162 Qi Hao Awakens

Ji Wanwan was stunned.

The man clearly said that he was used to it, but the pain in his eyes betrayed his duplicity.

As smart as she was, she immediately thought of Zhou Kai's strange behavior in Jiangcheng: "So you returned to Jiangcheng for them?"

Zhou Kai lowered his eyes to look at the photo in his pocket watch, his gaze softened: "Yes..."

He slowly told Ji Wanwan his story until the sun rose. Seeing the first rays of sunlight pouring into the house through the French windows, Zhou Kai finally smiled with relief: "I don't know if Mom and Sister are doing well over there, but I think it should be better than this purgatory-like apocalypse here."

After listening to Zhou Kai's story, Ji Wanwan just felt heartbroken.

It turns out that his strength was just to make his mother get the apology she deserved one day.

No wonder she felt Zhou Kai was unbelievably cold when she first met him. After going through such a change, he was still able to maintain his original sincerity and kindness. How precious it was...

She patted Zhou Kai's shoulder earnestly and said, "Brother Kai, just as you hope they live well, they definitely hope you live well too. So even if this end of the world is as cruel as hell, you must live a good life!"

Looking at the girl in front of him who was obviously younger than him but was advising him with an adult-like look on her face, Zhou Kai curled the corners of his mouth and chuckled.

The man's deep voice was filled with laughter: "Yes."

He closed the pocket watch, took Ji Wanwan's hand, and placed the pocket watch in Ji Wanwan's palm, with tenderness in his eyes: "Boss Ji, thank you.

Thank you for taking me in, thank you for giving me the opportunity to grow, and thank you for thinking so highly of me and being willing to let me help you manage the base.

At the beginning of the end of the world, I broke into your refuge alone. When I came, I had nothing but this pocket watch that once represented all my past.

I don’t have anything to give you, except this pocket watch that I have treasured for a long time. I hope you don’t mind it…”

Ji Wanwan opened her mouth in surprise.

This is the treasure that Brother Kai pines his longing for!

After a while, she said in a daze: "You want to give me such an important thing?"

Zhou Kai curled his lips, the light in his eyes shining like tiny stars: "Yes, because you are as important to me as they are to me."

Ji Wanwan heard a loud bang in her ears and felt like she had a fever. Her head was dizzy and her cheeks were hot.

These straightforward words and scorching gaze made Ji Wanwan's heart beat wildly and her body tingle uncontrollably.

I can’t stand it. I can’t stand it at all.

She is not a god. How could she possibly withstand such beauty in front of her?

"Ahem..." She coughed softly, lowered her head shyly, and slowly stretched out her hand: "Well, that's fine...When you miss them, you can come and get them back anytime..."

Seeing the girl's cheeks blushing, as shy as peach blossoms in March, Zhou Kai couldn't help but smile with his eyes curved: "I'm glad you don't mind."

…

By the time Zhou Kai left, it was already bright.

Hearing the door closing, Xia Li opened the door, leaned lazily against the door, and looked at Ji Wanwan teasingly: "In my heart, you are as important as them~~~~"

Ji Wanwan: “?”

Ji Wanwan blushed instantly from the shame she felt: "Dame! Please stop your performance!!"

"Hahahahahahaha!" Xia Li was very happy about this.

She stretched her muscles and said, "Alright, I'm broke and have nothing to give you. I only have this iron-clad body to give you, so~ you can savor it slowly. I'll go eat first, and then I'll let my dear lord drive me~"

Ji Wanwan was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

The official expansion time of the base is set at 8:30, which is one hour away.

Ji Wanwan thought that she would be very busy soon and probably wouldn't have enough energy to take care of Qi Hao. It would be better to put him into the system space now to avoid accidentally hurting him in the chaos.

Thinking this way, she came to Qi Hao's room.

Pushing open the door and seeing the scene inside, Ji Wanwan was slightly startled, and then an intense joy filled her heart, making her burst into tears.

"Brother Qi Hao..."

On the bed, the frail and pale man leaned lazily against the headboard. The moment he saw Ji Wanwan come in, his dark eyes suddenly brightened up.

"Evening...evening..."

The hoarse voice was like a broken zipper. The man swallowed hard to moisten his dry throat and slowly called out the name of his beloved.

After he finished speaking, his throat felt sweet and he started coughing due to the heavy burden.

Ji Wanwan panicked and quickly ran forward, holding Qi Hao's hand and using equivalent treatment to help him recover: "Brother Qi Hao, don't say anything! Let me treat you!"

Qi Hao moved his lips, wanting to say no, he was already awake anyway, there was no need to waste resources.

But looking at the girl's face full of tension and seriousness, he felt warm in his heart, and was particularly greedy for the feeling of being cared for by his beloved at this moment.

After a while, the system's voice came: [Qi Hao's current physical strength is 90%, and mental strength is 60%. Host, do you want to continue using equivalent treatment?]

Ji Wanwan subconsciously looked up at Qi Hao.

She heaved a sigh of relief when she found that the man's face was indeed much rosier. However, when their eyes met, the strong love in the man's eyes made her heart tremble uncontrollably.

She murmured softly, "Feeling better?"

Qi Hao nodded slightly and smiled gently: "Much better."

The man's voice returned to its usual clarity, no longer hoarse. Ji Wanwan withdrew her hand and sat next to the man: "That's good."

Qi Hao looked up and out the window.

He hadn't seen the light of day for a long time, and when he first saw the bright sunlight outside the window, he squinted his eyes uncomfortably.

He couldn't help but look down at his hands: "Wanwan, how long have I been unconscious?"

Before he completely lost consciousness, he knew what kind of attack he had suffered. He thought he was dead, but he didn't expect to see the light of day again.

I guess the girls around him must be worried about him a lot.

Ji Wanwan thought for a moment and said, "47 and a half days."

Looking at the girl's serious profile, Qi Hao couldn't help but curl his lips and say, "You remember it so clearly."

Ji Wanwan blinked at him: "That's right~"

Qi Hao nodded slightly, and love grew in his eyes.

Being on the verge of death but being reborn, Qi Hao actually had a lot to say in his heart, but he didn't know where to start.

Similarly, Ji Wanwan was also very confused.

During these 47 days and nights, she was always thinking about how to wake up Brother Qi Hao.

She had accumulated a lot of words she wanted to say to Qi Hao, but when he really woke up, she didn't know where to start. She just sat beside him blankly, feeling his every move.

The person I've always cared about has finally returned. This feeling... is so good...

Suddenly, she raised her head and looked at Qi Hao: "Brother Qi Hao, long time no see, I missed you so much..."

At the same time, Qi Hao, who had narrowly escaped death, spoke at the same time: "Wanwan, I love you..."
