Chapter 548 2029.5?
The religious issue continued to ferment, and the other party hoped that Ji Changqing could come forward, but Ji Changqing refused.
He didn't agree to any of the three things.
"I don't want to make a speech, refuse a blood test, and don't need..." Ji Changqing looked coldly at the woman who had locked her gaze on He Rui since she appeared, with obvious hostility in his tone. "This person's protection."
From the moment he saw this person, he noticed something was wrong.
The woman's face was expressionless, but she stared intently at He Rui. Although she didn't show any hostility, her focused gaze made Ji Changqing feel uncomfortable. He calmly took a step forward and protected He Rui behind him.
He recognized this woman - she was the survivor who had killed the abuser with the help of He Rui.
I didn't expect that she also gained super powers. No wonder she was different from other survivors at the beginning.
Their skin was not tanned, and they were wearing thin clothes in the severe cold, but they were safe and sound and did not freeze to death. I guess they were already in the process of evolutionary awakening at that time.
Surprisingly, after being blocked from view by him, the woman ignored the shelter leader who was still pleading, and simply walked sideways around him, half of her body leaning into the door and extending her hand to He Rui: "Hello."
He Rui looked bewildered, subconsciously hesitating whether to shake hands: "Um, hello?"
Ji Changqing quickly grabbed He Rui's hand, interlocked his fingers with his, and showed the couple rings on their ring fingers to the woman.
He turned around and questioned his leader with a gloomy face, "Did you find a love rival for me to destroy the relationship between me and my lover?"
The leader hurriedly explained: "No, no, we absolutely don't mean that. Xiao Wen!"
The woman ignored him and took another step to the side: "My name is Wen Ran."
"Oh?" He Rui still looked bewildered. He glanced at the girl in confusion, but his gaze couldn't help but be drawn to Ji Changqing, who was standing next to him and looked as cute as a pufferfish despite being angry.
“…Thank you.” Wen Ran was silent for a moment, lowered his eyes and thanked him softly.
"Ah? Oh..." He Rui responded vaguely.
"During this time, I will be responsible for protecting your safety."
As soon as the girl finished speaking, He Rui heard the person next to him suddenly become unstable and obviously angry.
She gently rubbed the man's palm soothingly with her fingertips a few times, then turned to the girl and politely declined, "No, we can protect ourselves, and..." He glanced at his partner, whose face was gloomy, "My husband and I don't like to be disturbed by outsiders, and we don't want anyone else in the house. We don't need bodyguards."
Ji Changqing's originally tense jawline softened at a speed visible to the naked eye.
He lowered his eyes to look at He Rui, and the jealousy that had just surged was completely subdued by the natural word "husband". A smile spread from the bottom of his eyes, and he tightened his fingers, completely wrapping his beloved's hand in his palm, and even his irritable heart was properly settled.
He Rui had been paying attention to his mood changes. Seeing this, he narrowed his eyes and gently shook his hand.
This small action made the last trace of haze in Ji Changqing's eyes disappear.
"No need to come into the house, I can be outside." Wen Ran said in a flat tone.
He Rui frowned when he heard this.
Ji Changqing directly ordered the three people to leave: "Leave immediately, we don't need any disturbance." After saying that, he stepped forward, forced the woman back, and slammed the door.
Outside, the leader sighed helplessly. The doctor asked doubtfully, "Should we still take the blood sample?"
Wen Ran did not leave. He found a place in the shadow near the door and stood there. Ignoring the inquiring looks from the people around him, he took out a biscuit from his clothes and ate it silently.
Inside the room, Ji Changqing's eyes flashed with a barely perceptible grievance. He stared at He Rui and asked, "You really don't remember her?"
He Rui blinked, then suddenly moved closer to Ji Changqing and kissed him on the lips in a funny way, "Don't be jealous. You're jealous for no reason."
"Her eyes are always glued to you." Ji Changqing's voice was filled with annoyance.
"Really? I didn't even notice." He Rui raised his eyebrows, then put his arms around the other's narrow waist, intimately lying in his arms, looking up and acting coquettishly, "Shouldn't you be looking at me the whole time? Why are you looking at her?"
Ji Changqing lowered his eyes and looked at him, his breathing stagnated, and only the figure of the person in his arms was reflected in his eyes.
"Okay, stop imagining it." He Rui nuzzled into his arms, then pulled him over to the pile of supplies. "I'm hungry. Let's see what supplies they've given us."
After looking through them, I found that they were all expiring foods, rice, flour, grain, oil, and various canned goods, which were not even as abundant as their reserves.
In this world where the length of day and night is chaotic, the concept of time has long been blurred. Although their time together was only a little over a year, at 30 hours a day, it was equivalent to living together for nearly two years.
As for the current date, according to the different calculation methods of more than 30 hours and 24 hours a day, He Rui roughly estimated that it would be April or May 2029, or the end of 2029.
These foods are basically on the verge of expiration.
