Chapter 238: The End of the World (13)
When he thought about how he had insisted on having the two teams go out together to complete this mission, Father Bai suddenly felt a little regretful.
Seeing his son's deep love for Bu Zhengchen, he felt as if he had given him away. But then he thought, if the Flame Squad hadn't followed, Bai Su might have lost his life.
Even though he had listened to Bai Su's words for a long time, Bai's father was still very stubborn. He still believed more in what he had seen and understood in the past.
He knew that Bu Zhengchen wasn't a bad guy, strictly speaking, but he was still a scoundrel with no special skills. If it weren't for the end of the world, such a person would be considered a loser in Father Bai's eyes.
He even suspected that his son had been deceived by Chen Tian, which was why he repeatedly defended the other party in his words. He remained silent for a while.
As for the gentle and soft-hearted Bai's mother, seeing her son in so much pain, she couldn't bear it and comforted him, "Xiao Su, Mom doesn't necessarily have to oppose this. I also know that in today's world, being a boy or a girl is not that important.
But you also said that Bu Zhengchen may not like you, and look at his personality, such a violent temper.
If you tell him that you like him, he might still hate you. Mom just hopes that you can be happy and find someone who truly loves you and treats you well.
Can it only be Bu Zhengchen? Can't other boys be used?"
Bai Su shook his head vigorously upon hearing this.
"Sorry, Mom, I've decided to be with Bu Zhengchen for the rest of my life."
At this point, Bai Su saw his father's furrowed brow and solemn expression and continued, "Don't worry, I won't tell him. I know that I may never be able to be with him in this life, and I also know that I have no hope.
I have never liked anyone in my life. Bu Zhengchen is the first and will be the only one. It is only because you are my most important family and I really feel that I can no longer hold it back that I want to confide in you and let you know. "
After saying that, Bai Su stood up with an exhausted look, turned around and went back to his room, leaving behind his father with a serious face and his mother who was full of worry.
Bai Su's rejection of his father and mother's acceptance was within his expectations. After all, Bu Zhengchen's performance in the past had indeed seemed a bit...unreliable.
However, Bai Su believed that it was only because they had not yet understood the true nature of his beloved.
What he needed to do now was to let them know his feelings first, so that they would think it was just his wishful thinking. Even if something happened in the future, he could take the responsibility on himself and not let them vent their anger on Chen Tian.
The two teams spent a lot of effort and returned with a large amount of medicines and supplies found on the road. It was a great harvest and definitely a big event.
So a day later, when they thought everyone had rested well, the top management of the base decided to hold a celebration banquet for them.
Of course, this so-called celebration banquet couldn’t be that luxurious. It was just that the food was a little better and a group of people got together to have some fun.
Life in the end times is always depressing, and we need such a remedy occasionally.
The venue was the same lecture hall as last time. After arriving at the venue, Bai Su took the initiative to walk over and talk to Chen Tian. The two seemed to have a good relationship. Bai Su was even attentive to Chen Tian, serving tea and water, and was extremely attentive.
As for Chen Tian, although he was also very nice to Bai Su and had a smile on his face, it was obvious that he was more warm when talking to the brothers around him.
Of course, the reason they behaved like this was because Bai Su had sent a message to Chen Tian the night before, telling him to be a little cold to him at the banquet tomorrow.
Bai Su looked at Chen Tian's smile and felt helplessly that it was a bit cold.
If Chen Tian knew what his lover was thinking, he would definitely feel wronged. He was obviously very cold towards her, and God knows he even wanted to feed the food on the table into his baby's mouth.
Speaking of which, Chen Tian and Bai Su used mobile phones to communicate yesterday, which is actually something that many people cannot do nowadays, mainly because electricity is very precious.
Before the end of the world, the use of mobile phones was already very popular, but after the end of the world, it is difficult to have enough food and clothing, so who would have the mood to use credit points to exchange for electricity to play with mobile phones?
Bai Su also gave up his original smartphone and later got a senior citizen's phone. It had a Symbian system, and at most, he could only play Snake. However, such a phone was actually the most useful in the apocalypse because it had a large battery, a long standby time, and a spare battery that could be removed and charged separately, making it less likely to damage.
As for Chen Tian's current phone, it was similar, and while it was only marginally better than Bai Su's, he could still use some minor cheating skills, such as having 002 directly charge the phone with system energy.
Bai Su has a lot of credit points, so it's not difficult for him to recharge them, but it's not appropriate for two people to send long text messages or chat on the phone.
So Bai Su simply informed Chen Tian and told him what to do, and then planned to wait until after the party to find an opportunity to discuss the matter with him face to face in detail.
The relationship between Chen Tian and Bai Su was naturally seen by Bai's father. He had always been worried that Bai Su was lying to him and thought that all this might be Bu Zhengchen's intention.
But looking at the situation now, his son's eyes were full of joy when he looked at Bu Zhengchen. He had to admit that Bai Su seemed to really like Bu Zhengchen.
On the contrary, although Bu Zhengchen had a smile on his face, his expression and body language were more like those of an ordinary friend. After all, they had experienced life and death together before, so it was reasonable for their relationship to improve.
However, this realization did not make Mr. Bai happy, but instead made him a little upset.
She even felt dissatisfied with Chen Tian because of this. Her son was so outstanding, so who was Bu Zhengchen? He actually wanted his child to have a one-sided love!
However, he couldn't keep his attention on Chen Tian and Bai Su all the time. This celebration banquet was not just to celebrate their great harvest of supplies. Father Bai also wanted to take this opportunity to tell everyone the information Bai Su got from the Shanhe Base.
In front of everyone, he raised his glass and spoke passionately about how the drug to cure the zombie virus was already being developed and there was great hope that it would be discovered.
Everyone was very happy to hear the news, even though they didn't know when the real medicine would be developed. But in the end times, what people need most is hope.
After finishing his speech, Mr. Bai was soon surrounded by a group of people. Everyone was very concerned about the potion.
Father Bai was busy with socializing, so naturally he couldn't pay attention to Bai Su and Chen Tian. The two of them quickly found an opportunity to quietly leave the venue and went to a secluded corner on the second floor of the lecture hall to be alone.
When they were the only two left in the space, Chen Tian immediately hugged Bai Su and kissed him hard on the lips. He then buried his head deeply in Bai Su's neck, breathing in his scent and sighing contentedly, "Bai Bai, I missed you."
Although they hadn't seen each other for just one day, looking at the man's appearance, it seemed as if they had been separated for ten or eight years.
Bai Su didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he missed Chen Tian very much in his heart.
He silently tightened his arms, hugged Chen Tian back, and then leaned over to kiss the man he loved. The two of them kissed for a long time before separating.
Chen Tian heard Bai Su telling him his plan, which was to let Bai's parents know that Bai Su liked him first, and then he would pretend to be indifferent. This way, it would seem that Bai Su had a one-sided love for him.
In fact, Chen Tian had some suspicions in his mind after receiving a message from his lover yesterday, in which he told him not to be too enthusiastic towards him at the celebration party.
As a result, when they met today and heard Bai Su's detailed explanation, it was exactly as he thought.
Suddenly, I remembered that Bai Su had done something similar in a certain small world in the past, but I had no memory at that time. When Bai Su traveled through time, he had family in that world.
In order to make his family accept him, he did this and silently took on everything.
Even though everything was within Chen Tian's expectations, he still felt indescribably touched. He truly felt that he was the luckiest person in the world to have such a considerate partner.
But how could Chen Tian bear to let his lover bear all the responsibilities alone, so he simply shook his head and refused: "Bai Su, I know what you mean, but I can't let you bear this matter alone.
This is a matter between the two of us, and I was the one who liked you first and wanted to be with you first. Why don't you just be honest and let me talk to your father."
"It's okay. At worst, I'll get beaten up by your parents. You know I'm strong, and with that kind of strength, I'm definitely not going to die!"
As Chen Tian spoke, he did not forget to joke with Bai Su.
When Bai Su heard Chen Tian's words, he felt his worry, but he also felt that everything he did was worth it, because this man was worth his efforts and kindness.
So he directly denied it: "No, since there is a better way to make them accept it, why should I let you suffer. Besides, I would be sad if you were hurt.
Bu Zhengchen, don't worry, I didn't do anything. On the contrary, I have to wrong you during this period of time. The two of us can only date secretly like this for the time being."
This is not even a grievance!
Chen Tian disagreed in his heart, but seeing the determination in Bai Su's eyes, he knew that it was useless to persuade him anymore.
"Just let me take care of the rest, okay?"
Bai Su held Chen Tian's hand and spoke to him seriously.
This time, Chen Tian could only nod obediently. He stopped arguing and decided to follow Bai Su's arrangements and try his best to cooperate with him.
According to Bai Su's plan, they might not be able to see each other in the next few days and can only communicate through mobile phones.
After the two finished discussing, they hugged each other tightly and kissed for a long time. After calming their breathing, they separated and returned to the venue.
With Father Bai around, they couldn't disappear together for too long, for fear of arousing suspicion.
Although Chen Tian agreed on the surface, he had other plans in his mind. He would never let his lover work alone for their future.
