Ch 208 (Extra 19): The Farmer Ger in the Apocalypse

Qi Zhan x Tang Wenjie Side Story

Tang Wenjie was doomed.

Once “helping each other out” happened once, there came a second time, then a third, a fourth… and eventually countless times.

At first, it was only because the healing ability moving through his body felt genuinely amazing. He got hard, half-reluctantly letting things happen. But as it happened more often, things slowly changed flavor.

Just looking at Qi Zhan’s legs made his throat itch.

Looking at Qi Zhan’s hands, no matter where those fingers brushed, even if he was only wiping a table, Tang Wenjie would remember those heart-racing sensations.

Scheming gay…

But then Tang Wenjie would look over at Shen Qing feeding Song Kaiji watermelon while Song Kaiji fed Shen Qing grapes, and he would feel a faint trace of envy.

Maybe it really wasn’t impossible…

This was already the apocalypse. Even adults struggled to survive, so who was going to raise children? If no one was having kids anyway, then what difference did it make whether someone was male or female?

Besides…

Qi Zhan was pretty good-looking.

And because he was skinny from hunger, from certain angles he even looked kind of like a big girl…

Especially his legs.

Tang Wenjie scratched his head.

When Mama Tang talked to him yet again, he no longer firmly insisted that he and Qi Zhan were “not that kind of relationship.”

“As for the future… who knows?”

That night, Qi Zhan came back very late and looked exhausted. He did not tease Tang Wenjie or fool around. He collapsed onto the bed and immediately fell asleep.

But Tang Wenjie could not sleep.

He tossed and turned until he earned himself two panda eyes. At dawn, before the sky had fully brightened, he shook Qi Zhan awake.

Qi Zhan woke groggily. Before even opening his eyes, his hands started groping around automatically, scaring Tang Wenjie into hurriedly pinning them down.

“What? Are we doing it or not? If not, stop bothering me while I sleep…”

Tang Wenjie swallowed hard.

“What do you think… our relationship is now?”

Qi Zhan was so sleepy it took him a long while to process the question. He woke up a little more and looked at Tang Wenjie.

“What relationship? Aren’t you a rock-solid straight guy? Then we’re brothers helping each other out. Satisfied?”

Tang Wenjie was not very satisfied.

Finally, one day while Qi Zhan was busy with his hands lowered, Tang Wenjie’s two heads both lost blood supply at the same time. His rationality snapped.

He grabbed Qi Zhan’s chin and kissed him.

Qi Zhan froze for only one second before relaxing completely, letting Tang Wenjie pry open his teeth.

Oddly enough, after all their “mutual helping,” this was their very first kiss.

And it felt unexpectedly good.

This kiss meant they would no longer remain in their muddled “helping each other” relationship. They were entering a new chapter.

Tang Wenjie sank into the kiss for a long time. Only after Qi Zhan’s hands stopped moving did he finally pant and pull back slightly.

His face was flushed as he stared into Qi Zhan’s eyes.

“How about… we just become partners? Like Third Brother and Boss Shen. That seems pretty good too. I think… maybe I can accept men after all.”

Qi Zhan looked at him with a half-smile.

“You sure? I’m not going to quit my hospital job and join your team just because we’re together. And are you really capable of accepting men?”

“…It’s not like I’m after your ability.”

For some reason, Tang Wenjie could not quite meet Qi Zhan’s eyes. He turned his head slightly away.

“I just mean… two people partnering up together. Things are already like this anyway, so what’s left to not accept?”

His eyes drifted toward the bed sheets he himself had just dirtied.

Qi Zhan smiled as he pinched Tang Wenjie’s chin.

Meat delivered right to his mouth. How could he not take a bite?

He turned Tang Wenjie’s face back toward him.

“Then let’s try it.”

And then, while Tang Wenjie was still in his post-orgasm sage phase, Qi Zhan pushed him down onto the bed…

That’s right.

Tang Wenjie was the one being pushed down.

He was the one underneath.

Tang Wenjie felt like his entire existence split apart just like his body.

What the hell?!

When he said he wanted to partner up with Qi Zhan, he meant treating Qi Zhan like a wife! How had Qi Zhan taken advantage of the situation and…

Tang Wenjie shattered.

His defenses broke completely.

He collapsed onto the bed like a rag doll, utterly unable to accept reality.

What made it even worse was that because he had been so emotionally destroyed during the process, he cursed Qi Zhan for quite a while afterward, with rather filthy wording.

And after that day…

Qi Zhan never! came! back!

Fuck!

You already pounded my ass open like a flower, and I can’t even curse at you a little?! You disappear just because of that? Are you even human? You’re worse than an animal!

Tang Wenjie’s mental state shattered even further.

But if Qi Zhan was not coming to him, then Tang Wenjie, the one who got fucked, definitely was not about to shamelessly go looking for Qi Zhan either.

And so the two of them gradually stopped contacting each other.

Yet Tang Wenjie slowly realized that he could no longer see anyone else, man or woman, romantically anymore.

The little magazines and videos before bed became tasteless. Even handling things himself felt nowhere near as good as Qi Zhan helping him…

He truly fell.

Tang Wenjie grabbed three mutant zombie crystal cores and absorbed them all in one go.

Normally, without actively expending power in combat, recklessly absorbing so many crystal cores at once would instantly throw an ability user’s powers into chaos.

His ability immediately spiraled out of control.

Barely holding himself together, he crawled to the bedroom door.

“T-take me to the hospital…”

Song Kaiji and the others panicked and hurriedly carried him over.

Qi Zhan saw him too, but did not approach. Instead, he pushed a coworker he got along with.

“You go treat him.”

The coworker looked confused.

“What’s going on? Isn’t that your boyfriend?”

Qi Zhan looked awkward.

Tang Wenjie claimed he could accept men now, but when things actually happened, he cursed so viciously…

But Qi Zhan also did not understand why the more Tang Wenjie cursed him, the more excited he became.

And then…

After Tang Wenjie fell asleep, or rather passed out, Qi Zhan treated him and quietly left.

Now, seeing Tang Wenjie again, Qi Zhan guiltily rubbed his nose.

“He probably doesn’t want anything to do with me anymore…”

Tang Wenjie might even stab him clean through with metal spikes.

“Oh, so you’re having a lovers’ quarrel? Playing hard to get? I understand.”

Ignoring Qi Zhan’s murderous stare, the coworker grinned and went over. But before long, he came running back in panic.

“His ability’s gone berserk! I don’t know what’s happening. I can’t guide it at all. His meridians seem completely different from normal people!”

Qi Zhan froze.

Thinking about the special connection between their abilities, could it be that Tang Wenjie’s powers now recognized only him?

Looks like there was truly no escaping this now.

But human life came first. Qi Zhan no longer cared about his messy thoughts and immediately rushed over.

Tang Wenjie looked far more haggard than before. Pain made him writhe on the hospital bed, veins bulging along his arms.

Qi Zhan immediately began guiding and soothing his abilities.

The moment Tang Wenjie managed to catch a breath, he grabbed Qi Zhan’s sleeve, teeth grinding audibly.

“You fuck me and then run away afterward. Are you even human??”

“I’m guiding your abilities right now. Critical moment here, no fighting allowed.”

Qi Zhan hurriedly spoke. Looking at Tang Wenjie’s appearance, he guiltily rubbed his nose again.

“I can be… your man.”

“Bullshit. You owe me one. Just you wait!”

Well, owing him one was fine.

Back and forth.

That was how you created a future together.
