He Zizhong remembered that it was probably last weekend, after having a dinner with his colleagues, he was taken to a bar by a few of his colleagues.
That bar was near C University, where Dai Jun goes to school, but because he usually doesn't like to go to that kind of place, he had never been there before. Even if he dated or went out to play with Dai Jun, he had never been to such a place.
When he met Dai Jun for the first time, it was at C University. He went there to find his old classmates and met him head-on in the corridor. He suddenly raised his head, with slightly raised eyes. They were so big, so similar to those eyes that often appeared in his dreams, it made his heart skip half a beat.
At that time, Dai Jun looked so pure and innocent. Therefore, even if he was found to be more vain after they began dating, always wanting this and that, and wanting to go to high-end hotels, He Zizhong accommodated him.
The gay circle was not too small, but it's also not very big. It’s really not easy to meet someone you like. He Zizhong had the mentality that he can be with him for a long time, so he could usually tolerate these small issues. But he would also stop when the things Dai Jun asked for were too unrealistic.
Later, he thought about it. Maybe it's because he didn't follow him all the time. That time before the end of the world, he met him in the bar with other men...
That day, after entering the bar, he didn't immediately recognize that he was the man who was riding on the corner sofa, an obviously fat boss with rich wealth.
Because that corner was very noisy and laughed loudly, so he looked at it more.
When the young man with dark eyeliner masking his original appearance smiled at the fat boss, stroking and twisting his head on the man’s chest, looked up with an surprised expression, He Zizhong realized that the person turned out to be the Dai Jun who he was dating.
After all, he would never dress up like this when they were together, let alone using make-up. Of course, it was mainly because he didn't like it. But after discovering this fact, He Zizhong was able to hold back his anger. He turned and left, already quite calm.
Soon after returning home, when he was thinking about breaking up, Dai Jun chased him in a taxi and cried all night in his arms, saying that he was playing Truth or Dare with his classmates at the time. He lost and also drank a lot of alcohol before being egged on by his classmates. After that, he kept saying sorry, and that he would never do it again...
After all, they have been dating for nearly a year, and neither of their feelings came with the wind. He Zizhong knew that Dai Jun was still young, could not stand the instigation of others, and was somewhat greedy for vanity. Although he knew what he said was full of loopholes, he was still willing to try to forgive him.
It’s a pity that after the end of the world, when Dai Jun finally hugged Allen’s thigh and stole his bracelet, he triumphantly told him that he pretended to be innocent. While they were dating, he never broke off relations with other men. The reason why he had been with him for so long was because he was willing to spend money for him, and was stupid, so he never broke up...
"Zizhong, Zizhong?"
The voice on the phone grabbed He Zizhong's attention, and he suddenly awoke completely: "Dai Jun, let's break up."
The person on the phone was obviously stunned. Dai Jun obviously didn't expect that He Zizhong would suddenly raise the issue of breaking up... Didn't he persuade him last week?! Hasn't he already believed his words?!!
"Zi, Zizhong, why? Is it because of the last time? I said that I drank too much that day..."
"Then tell me, where did you spend the night these two nights?" He Zizhong's voice was extremely calm. The end of the world is coming, and he really has no energy, let alone thoughts, to deal with this snake's tail. Buy supplies, make plans, and the most important thing is to find Fang Hao! He has no time and no mood to continue being entangled with him.
Dai Jun was obviously stunned. He didn't expect He Zizhong to know: "I, I...I went to the Internet cafe overnight..."
He Zizhong let out a long sigh and forcibly endured his words to accuse him of his unfaithfulness and deceit: "Dai Jun, break up."
There was a long silence on the phone, and after a long time there was a muffled voice: "Yeah."
With his hands on the windowsill, He Zizhong looked at the golden ground outside.
This breakup was unexpectedly simple. In fact, he was not completely sure Dai Jun had another man with him these few nights, but He Zizhong didn't want to bother dealing with him anymore. Unexpectedly, he had a guilty conscience and didn't dare to continue insisting.
Dai Jun did have a guilty conscience. In order to chase He Zizhong that night, he had to make an excuse with the gold master who had just caught him so he could leave.
Dai Jun was indeed reluctant to part with He Zizhong. The man is handsome, had a good body, was skilled at spoiling him, and had a good job. But he has been in this circle since high school, and he has long been accustomed to people with big hands and feet1AKA, people who are generous in spending. Although He Zizhong was generous, there are limits. More importantly, he got a drug addiction from the new boss... He Zizhong didn't know it, and he was even less likely to tell him, so Dai Jun could only think of a solution elsewhere.
However, although the bosses spend generously, they are often only fresh for a while, the longest being only one or two months. Even if they were supported, they will not last long with their own beauty.
It's rare to meet He Zizhong, a man who seems to really like him and spoiled him very often. More importantly, he never mixed in this circle!
If one doesn't mix in the circle, they won't know the situation. And if he used the excuse of living in school, it was even more impossible for He Zizhong to know his nighttime situation. He gave himself enough space to get along with him. Although some topics could not be discussed, as long as he pretended to be more well-behaved and dressed purely, he was so easy and worry-free, and he doesn’t bother to please him. How could he be willing to let go?
But now...
Dai Jun bit his lower lip. It seemed that after the incident last time, he became suspicious... He remembered that when he met him before, it was because he came to C University to find his friends... was it found out?
Of course, the more gold masters, the better. Although it was a pity, he can’t give up the means of using his body in exchange for a better life. Although He Zizhong is good, he was not as generous as those people after all... He just doesn't know if anyone deliberately reported him!
Thinking of his discordant roommate in the dormitory, Dai Jun bitterly stuffed the new mobile phone into his pocket, turned and walked back to the dormitory. Yesterday the fat guy said he was going to take him to a party in the same-sex circle on Valentine’s Day, but he pushed it away using part-time work as an excuse. Perfect, give him a call later, and maybe he can get the watch he saw last time!
He Zizhong was still standing at the window. His heart had completely calmed down. He didn't want to break up after meeting with Dai Jun, because he was afraid he could not control his temper after seeing him. And if he lost control and choked him to death... it was not like the end of the world now, were it was chaotic and people died every day. Right now, in a society with laws, he should try to avoid meeting with his enemies, so as to not lose control of himself.
In his last life, Jun Dai was just like him, an ordinary person without abilities.
On the night when the end of the world broke out, he stayed at He Zizhong's home. On that day, because his cousin Xu Lili came to the house and suddenly had a fever, she had to stay overnight, causing him to argue with Dai Jun.
About two weeks before the apocalypse, an inexplicable high fever ran rampant all over the world. The hospital was full of unconscious patients, and it was impossible to call an ambulance.
Dai Junsheng was afraid that Xu Lili’s symptoms would spread to both of them, and wanted to kick Xu Lili out. But although he didn’t like Xu Lili, she was a relative, so he couldn’t kick the sick person out so unrelentingly.
In the early morning of the next day, the whole world instantly turned into hell, and most of the patients with a high fever and coma before the end of the world turned into zombies. Only a few people woke up and gained supernatural powers.
Dai Jun is an ordinary person, and an extremely timid and weak ordinary person. Although He Zizhong didn't inspire abilities, he was sadly reminded that he would have a low-grade fever every night starting the week before the end of the world.
Ten hours after a low-grade fever, he would be weak and powerless, and his actions were greatly affected.
But even so, he still tried his best to protect Dai Jun and went out looking for food.
What surprised both of them was that Xu Lili, who had a high fever, actually stimulated a wood ability. After discovering that He Zizhong’s body was weak and Dai Jun’s weakness, Xu Lili, who had obtained an ability, did not hesitate to throw away them. She teamed up with other abilities and left.
Later, for Dai Jun's safety, He Zizhong had to expose the existence of the space. After discovering that it was safe to live in the space, Dai Jun asked to live inside without hesitation.
Because he didn't prepare in advance, He Zizhong didn't prepare any supplies in the space, and only planted a few apple trees and some useless flowers.
He had to venture out to collect supplies while teaming up with other survivors in the community.
It was at that time that he met Fang Hao...
The same thin, juvenile-like youth. The same quiet and slender Fang Hao who desperately struggled in the apocalypse. Although he had abilities, his ability was a logistics-type healing ability, which was not helpful when fighting. But he never flinched. Since they met, Fang Hao stood firmly by his side.
Even after he was betrayed by Dai Jun and Xu Lili, robbed of space, and lost the only thing he could rely on; even after he was wanted by the Overlord team, and could not appear in the base at all; even if he not only had no abilities, and was weak for twelve hours each day...
During their three months fleeing together, he tried to get rid of Fang Hao several times and escape alone, but he caught up again and again. Every time, he smiled, and the dimples were filled with things he could not understand, the large cat-like eyes curved in into crescents.
He Zizhong was not a fool. He knew that Fang Hao liked him, but at first because of Dai Jun by his side, Fang Hao couldn't do anything to rob someone else's lover. Later, when they fled, and the two carefully lived around the base of city A.
He understood Fang Hao's explicit and suggestive actions, as well as his thoughtfulness and gentleness, but did not dare respond. Fang Hao had a healing ability, which was an extremely rare power targeted by all major teams.
As long as Fang Hao left him, even if he offended the Overlord team, as long as he showed his abilities, all the major teams will fight for him.
But this fool just followed him stubbornly. It wasn't until his death that he said why he did this... It turned out that he was the junior brother who confessed to him in his third year of high school.
It turned out that after so long, he has been...loving him...in fact, he was the same.
If it weren't for Fang Hao, He Zizhong might have been unable to realize he actually liked men? If it weren't for Fang Hao, he wouldn't have chosen Dai Jun whose eyes were three to four points similar to Fang Hao's when they first met...
Could it be that if he had responded to him when I was in high school, the two would have been together early? He Zizhong didn't know, he only knew that he wanted to find Fang Hao. He thought of him. After his death and their separation, after answering Dai Jun's phone call, he missed the youth who had a playful dimple and a pair of cat-like eyes bent into crescents when he smiled.
... "Fang Hao?!" He Zizhong put his arms on the window sill, his eyes widened as he looked down in surprise.
