Chapter 60
Qi An’s worship for his boss rose by several notches .
Even though Nie Yi was also his boss’s subordinate, Nie Yi was different . To say nothing else, Nie Yi’s combat ability was very powerful, enough to dispatch anyone besides his boss .
It was very understandable for Nie Yi to willingly vow his loyalty to his boss, but he was also being pressed down by his boss… Sure enough, his boss was amazing!
Qi An looked at Qi Jingchen in adoration, his face filled with excitement . “Boss! I’ve waited so long and you’ve finally arrived!” As he spoke, he ran towards Qi Jingchen .
Then… he was once again lifted by Nie Yi…
“Nie Yi, let me go!” Qi An struggled ferociously .
“Qi An, do you remember how you spoke to the lord?” Nie Yi suddenly smiled .
How did he speak to the boss? He called the boss a pretty boy, and even said he wanted to kill him… Qi An regretted it immensely, wanting to return to a few minutes ago and slap himself a few times .
He truly was a fool! How could he forget that this guy, Nie Yi, only had his boss in his eyes?
Nie Yi cared about his boss so much, so how could he allow anyone besides the boss to grope him? When he had seen Nie Yi obey every word of this person, he should have guessed that he was his boss!
In this world, was there anyone else besides his boss who could control Nie Yi?
Qi An wailed, “Boss, I’m sorry . ”
“It’s fine, you did it to protect me . ” Qi Jingchen didn’t mind Qi An’s prior behaviour at all . After all, Qi An was acting like that for his sake… “Nie Yi, put him down . ”
Nie Yi put Qi An down, but stopped Qi An again when he wanted to run over to the bed . “You’re filthy, don’t dirty the bedsheets!” That was the bedsheet he and Qi Jingchen slept in! He absolutely wouldn’t allow other people to touch it!
Qi An wanted to protest, but looking at his clothes that were truly rather filthy, then looking at the spotlessly white bedsheet and Qi Jingchen, who was untainted by even a speck of dust… Why wasn’t he a water ability user? If he was a water ability user, he could always give himself a shower .
However, the boss truly deserves to be the boss ah! He was actually so handsome, causing him to be unable to move his gaze away!
Qi An looked at Qi Jingchen’s face somewhat dazedly . He had previously disdained this youth with fair skin, dressed up like a wealthy, pampered son . He thought that he was just a regular person who relied on his good looks to depend on Nie Yi, but after knowing that this was his boss, his opinion had completely changed!
His boss should be clean, like a n.o.ble young master, unaffected by the dirty, apocalyptic environment!
When a demonic cult leader appeared in those martial art novels, they were often carried on a sedan chair, and even had maids in white dresses sprinkling flowers all around . Should he do this for the boss?
While Qi An was pondering over this, Nie Yi had smacked him on the shoulder . “What are you looking at?!” Qi An better not think that he could rely on his child-like appearance to take advantage of Qi Jingchen! He understood very well that this fellow was internally a seventeen-year-old youth!
Seventeen ah! Qi Jingchen’s current outer appearance was also seventeen…
“Boss, you’re really handsome!” Qi An returned to his senses and stood near the bed, then gave Qi Jingchen a broad smile, which also turned Nie Yi’s expression dark .
“I also think I’m becoming more handsome,” Qi Jingchen smiled . If this situation of looking increasingly younger had occurred before the apocalypse, perhaps he would’ve been very annoyed, and would purposely go under the sun to make himself look more mature, but now… He didn’t even care about being princess-carried, so he wouldn’t care about looking soft and immature either . After he got used to it, he even felt that he was rather good-looking .
If he used to look like this, he might not even have to do manual labour, and could have just sold his face… In the past, wasn’t there a boy in his school who had turned himself famous online?
“No wonder you concealed yourself in our last life, Boss!” Qi An said .
“That’s right, I worry that if I didn’t conceal myself, others would want to eat me” Qi Jingchen said .
“Boss, your thoughts are too thorough!” Qi An immediately said, wanting to tell Qi Jingchen that Nie Yi had sinister intentions towards him… In his last life, he had discovered that Nie Yi seemingly had a desire for the boss!

“The name Junzhe sounds nice too,” Qi Jingchen reached out and pinched Qi An’s cheek .
Junzhe… There were too many people with this name! His school already had many of them! It didn’t have the slightest domineering feel like Qi An! Qi An puffed up his cheeks .
Nie Yi stood at the side with a cold face, thinking gravely— If he moved his face closer, would Qi Jingchen be willing to pinch it too
After he recognised Qi Jingchen, Qi An happily got closer to Qi Jingchen’s side and began to chatter about his life after rebirth . He couldn’t help drawing near Qi Jingchen as he spoke, and was lifted away by Nie Yi again .
Qi Jingchen had endured it several times, but couldn’t hold back after that . “Nie Yi, go help him bathe . ”
“He can bathe by himself!” Nie Yi immediately said .
“No!” Qi An also spoke up . In his last life, when he had just been rescued, Nie Yi had also helped him bathe, then he kept privately mocking him that . This situation cannot happen again!
“Big Brother Qi, I’ll bathe by myself,” Qi An added . He truly was in need of a wash . Previously, he had laid down on the city walls, and his entire body was muddy .
“I can provide water, but you can’t shower here . You have to go elsewhere,” Nie Yi said . Qi Jingchen hadn’t showered today, so he couldn’t let Qi An use the bathtub first!
Qi Jingchen gave Nie Yi a look, then acquiesced . “Sure, we also have to let Qi An be able to follow us openly . ”
Qi An couldn’t walk out from the house, so he teleported out first, then Nie Yi would go look for him .
After he exited, Nie Yi went to visit his subordinates first, only then did he discover that they were arranged in an empty s.p.a.ce, and were still eating .
Because of Nie Yi’s orders, these people didn’t drink alcohol, but all of them had a lot of drinks with good food . Accompanying them were W County secure base’s people, trying hard to have a conversation with them .
Seeing Nie Yi arrive, someone from the group of people accompanying them immediately came over .
Nie Yi and Qi Jingchen had stayed in the house alone for a very long time, then Nie Yi came out while Qi Jingchen didn’t… The W County secure base chief, Su Haisheng, couldn’t help his imagination from wandering, and he stuck the label ‘good-for-nothing’ on Nie Yi .
After he arrived at the base, Nie Yi didn’t hurry to build a good relationship with him . He actually went to have s.e.x with his lover first and even handed his subordinates over for him to welcome . Wasn’t this just giving him a chance to draw Nie Yi’s subordinates to his side?
In truth, Nie Yi’s subordinates were very strong . If he had such a group of subordinates, how could he be worried about the zombies outside?
As long as these subordinates were protecting him, he would be able to go anywhere!
Su Haisheng couldn’t help coveting Nie Yi’s subordinates . Of course, while he had devious intentions, he was still sufficiently respectful when facing Nie Yi . “Nie shao, do you have something you need?”
“No,” Nie Yi said, then looked at Ping Shengchao . “Come take a walk with me . ”
Ping Shengchao finished up his leftover food in a few bites, then followed after him .
Zhang Zihai had s.n.a.t.c.hed up a drumstick that had just been served and wanted to give it to Ping Shengchao, then saw that Ping Shengchao had left with Nie Yi . Immediately, he felt extremely distressed— Ping Shengchao was great in every way, but he cared too much for Nie Yi . He was becoming jealous!
Ping Shengchao had no idea that someone had fallen for him . He followed Nie Yi out, and when it was completely devoid of people, he heard Nie Yi ask, “What do you think of this secure base?”
“This secure base probably doesn’t lack in supplies, but it’s impossible for them to give us so much food . However, the food reserves should be controlled by very few people… Boss, that Su Haisheng wants to pull us to his side,” Ping Shengchao replied just as quietly .
“Heheh…” Nie Yi laughed .
When Ping Shengchao heard Nie Yi’s laugh, he immediately had a feeling that Su Haisheng was probably out of luck .
However, he felt that this was pretty good . After all, Su Haisheng really wasn’t a good person . This was obvious just by looking at how the regular people in the secure base lived in comparison to him .
Back when Fei Xuelei had welcomed them, he could only offer his own house for them to live, and would even become envious when he saw them cooking . And Su Haisheng? Not only was the welcoming food extremely abundant, but the lodgings arranged for them was also a little excessively good .
Even if Nie Yi ate better than them, it was still gathered by Nie Yi himself, and he wouldn’t let them starve either . As for Su Haisheng?
When Nie Yi heard Ping Shengchao’s words, he knew the present situation . However, he didn’t have the time to deal with Su Haisheng for the time being… Striding outwards, Nie Yi soon spotted Qi An, who was standing by the street .
He walked over and proficiently lifted Qi An .
“Let me go!” Qi An once again struggled .
“It would be great if you aren’t willing to enter . ” Nie Yi acted as if he was about to let go of him .
Qi An instantly didn’t dare struggle anymore . If he didn’t go in now, he couldn’t openly appear by Qi Jingchen’s side! For his boss, he’ll endure!
Qi An stopped his scuffling but glared at Nie Yi instead .
Nie Yi circled around the area outside, then carried a boy back . When Su Haisheng saw this, his eyes gleamed faintly .
This child was probably forcibly brought into the secure base by Nie Yi . Nie Yi… shouldn’t like such a young one, right? Su Haisheng had already learnt many things about Nie Yi from the W County secure base ability users who had gone to B City secure base and was now pondering over it .
The lover Nie Yi had brought from B City secure base was very young, and now he had even carried a very cute boy back . It seemed that Nie Yi had a special hobby
Before the apocalypse, Su Haisheng was very influential and had witnessed first-hand how some people sought stimulation . Now, he had taken Nie Yi as one of them .
But in truth, Nie Yi who was suspected to have ‘fallen for’ Qi An, had just brought Qi An into the Ping parents’ resting place, then threw him over as easily as he had picked him up .
Qi An steadied himself and glared at Nie Yi .
“Where did this child come from?” Mother Ping was an ordinary person, so she hadn’t partic.i.p.ated in the welcome feast . The others who hadn’t left with her were Qi Yaoyao, Shao Zhenglan, Xu Nan’s wife and daughter, and Xiaomao . At this time, the women were sitting together to eat .
“Picked him up outside . I’ll bring him to the bathroom to wash . ” Nie Yi didn’t call Qi An, entering the bathroom and directly dumping hot water in the bathtub . He looked at Qi An . “Wash yourself clean, and dress up nicely!”
“Hmph!” Qi An squeezed into the bathroom .
“Uncle . ” Because Nie Yi had accompanied her to play a few times, Xiaomao had a very favourable impression of Nie Yi . At this moment, she smiled and called him .
Nie Yi had been thinking about Qi An, and just happened to see Xiaomao . For the first time, he discovered that this girl was really quite pleasing to the eyes . At least, more pleasing than Qi An .
“Uncle Nie will bring you to go see Uncle Qi to play, okay?” Nie Yi picked Xiaomao up in his arms .
“Okay . ” Xiaomao nodded . When they had just picked her up, she had been on the verge of death . Now, she was very spirited, though still a little too prudent, she was already much closer to them .
Qi An bathed very quickly, and he washed his clothes after bathing, then walked out in dripping wet clothes .
Nie Yi dried him with a cold face, picked him up by the collar and left .
In truth, Qi An was long used to being lifted here and there by Nie Yi . Now, thinking that he was about to be able to stand by Qi Jingchen’s side openly, he didn’t resist .
However, he was very curious about Xiaomao, who was being carried in Nie Yi’s arms . “Who is she? Not your daughter, right?”
“Her? She’s Jingchen’s darling,” Nie Yi said .
“No way! Boss likes me the most… At least, aside from you, the boss likes me the most!” Qi An snorted, then said, “Right, why can you call Boss by his name?”
“My relationship with Jingchen is different,” Nie Yi proudly expressed .
“Yes ah… You’re Big Brother Qi’s wife, my sister-in-law . ” Qi An’s face was filled with provocation .
“Good boy, next time, remember to call me sister-in-law . ” Nie Yi shook Qi An in his hands . He wasn’t the slightest bit resentful with this address— Wasn’t it just an address? As long as he could obtain Qi Jingchen, he didn’t care about being regarded as Qi Jingchen’s wife… But, aside from Qi An, perhaps no one would think he was the wife .
Qi An gloomily fell silent . With such a sister-in-law he could foresee that his future life would be just as bad as before . What was even worse was that his boss had picked up another child…
Qi An had previously wanted to introduce the children he had saved to Qi Jingchen, but he was somewhat hesitant now . What if his boss felt that he wasn’t cute enough and liked another child?
“Why did you bring Xiaomao?” Qi Jingchen saw Nie Yi bring two children in and asked in astonishment .
“Xiaomao misses you,” Nie Yi said . He put Qi An down, then stuffed Xiaomao into Qi An’s embrace .
“What are you doing?” Qi An said unhappily .
“In the future, you have to take care of her well, okay?” Nie Yi smiled as he patted Qi An’s head .
“What for? I’m still young!” Qi An, who had always worked hard to make everyone think he was an adult, recalled that he was still young .
“She’s a s.p.a.ce ability user,” Nie Yi said .
“What?” Qi An looked at Nie Yi in shock .
“And her ability isn’t the same as your useless teleportation and spatial blade . Rather, it’s a separate s.p.a.ce where you can store things,” Nie Yi continued .
Qi An who had initially wanted to put Xiaomao down tightened his grip on her . Even though Xiaomao was a little heavy for the present him, he still didn’t let go .
A s.p.a.ce ability user with a separate s.p.a.ce! If they had someone like this, they could store up a lot of food, and live a lot longer!
When the apocalypse came, Qi An was young, and he wasn’t pessimistic like Qi Jingchen when he saw the huge changes in the world . After his rebirth, he had never thought of major matters like the extinction of humanity . In fact, aside from looking for Qi Jingchen, he was constantly concerned about one thing— He must not starve to death!
At the end of his last life, he was actually very, very hungry, and really wanted to eat . However, there weren’t many things he could eat— The plants Qi Jingchen had grown, how many were there in total?
He could only continue to starve and in the end, even wanted to go take a bite of zombies…
If he had a separate s.p.a.ce, he could gather loads of food, and wouldn’t have to worry about starving anymore… Qi An looked at the girl in his embrace and swallowed his saliva as if he was looking at a large, fatty piece of meat .
