Fang Siming's condition continued to deteriorate after his injury; he became weaker and weaker, and his temper became increasingly irritable.
"Do you all want me dead so you can go and join Qin Su?"
He was used to being the boss, and this period of living in cramped quarters had long made him very dissatisfied.
If he notices someone around him doing something slightly wrong, he immediately starts venting his anger and cursing.
“Mr. Fang, we do want to seek refuge with Miss Qin, because only by following Miss Qin can we find a way out.”
Now that things have come to this point, everyone has seen the truth.
This is the end times; the systems that existed before the apocalypse are long gone.
They continued to follow Fang Siming simply because Fang Siming had taken care of them before.
But Fang Siming kept causing trouble, and they couldn't handle it anymore.
"Mr. Fang, this is the end of the world. If it weren't for Miss Qin, we would have died in the solar storm long ago, let alone have food and drink."
One should be grateful and repay kindness; one shouldn't accept help from others while simultaneously opposing them.
Fang Siming stared wide-eyed at the disapproving looks on everyone's faces, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.
He knew what they were saying, but they bore the responsibility of preserving the nation. How could Qin Su possibly understand such a responsibility?
In reality, Qin Su saved many people, provided them with ample food and water, and ensured their comfortable lives. At the same time, she actively trained everyone, making them all more capable.
But it seems that all he does is spout grand principles without actually doing anything.
"You should go find Miss Qin."
After a long pause, he spoke sadly.
His health was probably failing him completely, but he couldn't let his men perish with him.
"Mr. Fang, we'll take good care of you first."
Seeing that Fang Siming had figured things out, the others breathed a sigh of relief.
Everyone in the dungeon is working hard to improve, but these people are different; their lives are particularly difficult.
"No need, you can go. I'm afraid I'm going to die, so don't worry about me."
Fang Siming felt that he could no longer implicate his subordinates.
"We won't leave. We'll wait until you're better before we leave."
Seeing him like this, his subordinates were also very upset.
Fang Siming's wounds had become completely festering, and no amount of ointment they applied could help.
"Why don't we go and ask Miss Qin for help?"
The group feared that Fang Siming would die just like that. Although Fang Siming had a bad temper, he was also quite capable.
"Okay, let's hurry and beg Miss Qin."
They were also afraid that if they arrived too late, it would be too late to save Fang Siming.
Fang Siming did not stop him, but he had a feeling that he was going to die.
Life was slipping away bit by bit, and all his strength was exhausted. The only things he could remember were the scenes from when he first came to the dungeon.
If he hadn't tried to seize control of the underground city back then, his life would definitely be different now.
He was wrong. He shouldn't have relied on his past status to demand that Qin Su give him the underground city.
It's a pity that he only realized how good Qin Su was when he was about to die.
"Mr. Fang, Mr. Fang..."
Hearing Qin Su's shouts, Fang Siming thought he wasn't quite dead yet and was hallucinating.
"Miss Qin, it's so good to see you before I die. I apologize to you, I'm sorry, I was wrong!"
Qin Su was speechless: "You'd better stay alive, don't pull this stunt on me."
She hadn't expected Fang Siming's wounds to be so severe, but with her there, Fang Siming wouldn't die.
"I...I'm still alive?"
Fang Siming stared wide-eyed in disbelief.
Yes, you are still alive.
Fifth Uncle said irritably, "I told you that not just anyone can go up there, but you wouldn't believe me and insisted on going. Now look what happened, you've just had a brush with death. Doesn't that clear your head a bit?"
"I'm awake!"
Fang Siming was no longer as domineering as before. He knew he was wrong, terribly wrong.
"Miss Qin, give me poison, and I'll work for you from now on. I know that only by following you can we rebuild Blue Star."
Qin Su hadn't expected that this experience would completely change Fang Siming's mindset.
"You should focus on recovering from your injury first. We'll talk about it after you've healed."
"No, I'll take poison now. I... I don't want to be ostracized."
Fang Siming had really thought it through. He knew he had to seize the opportunity while he could, because such a chance would not come again.
"Alright!"
Seeing his reaction, Qin Su simply threw the pill over to him.
Anyway, the poison wouldn't harm his wound, so it wouldn't hurt him to eat it.
Fang Siming quickly put the pill in his mouth and swallowed it, finally feeling relieved.
"Hehe, from now on, I belong to Miss Qin too!"
Qin Su: ……
Fang Siming's men also voluntarily took the poison.
Only by following Qin Su can they become better.
Qin Su arranged for Fang Siming to be sent to the underground hospital, while the others were assigned tasks by their second and third uncles.
When Fang Siming entered the hospital and received the care he needed, he was moved to tears.
"I really never thought I would have the chance to be hospitalized in my lifetime."
As expected, Miss Qin is much more capable than him.
He was outside leading people to avoid the solar storm, while Miss Qin had already built such a perfect underground city.
Today, the underground city is unified.
After investigation, it was found that although the ground had returned to calm, it was not suitable for ordinary people to live on.
As time went by, the superhumans were gradually able to emerge from the ground to investigate.
Ordinary people can only remain in the dungeon.
However, everyone has gotten used to life in the dungeon; apart from the lack of sunlight, everything else is just fine.
"SuSu, we've made contact with a base!"
Fifth Uncle rushed in, yelling.
Everyone thought that humanity might have perished after the solar storm.
At this time, a base suddenly appeared, and they even made contact.
"That base isn't far from us. After the solar storm, they escaped by hiding in an air-raid shelter. There were also people with superpowers among them, and it was one of them who relayed the message this time."
Qin Su frowned. In her previous life, she had never heard of any bases in the vicinity.
What is their purpose in contacting us?
Although both are survivors, mutual assistance between the two bases is simply impossible in the apocalypse.
They had food and drink mainly because she had made preparations in advance. But those people in the air-raid shelters wouldn't be so lucky; that means they've probably run out of supplies by now.
"They just wanted to come and see the underground city."
Qin Su raised an eyebrow. After reading this, are you going to go back and rob someone?
Did you agree?
Fifth Uncle shook his head: "No."
He wasn't that naive; when people asked to see it, he revealed the secrets of the underground city.
"But now that they've made contact, they certainly won't give up so easily."
Qin Su felt that they were about to fight again.
