The End of the World: I am a rent collector in a shelter

Chapter 163 Welcome back
The two voices intertwined and overlapped, echoing in the quiet room.

Ji Wanwan's heart was in turmoil again.

Seeing the girl shyly looking away, Qi Hao couldn't help but raise his hand and gently touch her soft hair, as lovingly as he did when they were children.

"Wanwan, what grandma said is also what I want to say. I know you have lofty ambitions and dreams, and you don't want to talk about love for the time being, so you don't need to respond to my feelings. Just do what you like to do, and don't let my feelings restrict you. You just need to know that you always have a brother Qi Hao behind you to support you, and that's enough..."

Ji Wanwan's face turned red and she was in a state of confusion.

Although she had always known Qi Hao's feelings for her, this was the first time Qi Hao expressed it so directly.

Although Qi Hao's family background was better than the Ji family in the past, he always felt inferior in front of his beloved Ji Wanwan.

He always felt that he was not perfect enough, and Ji Wanwan was too perfect.

In front of such a perfect girl, he didn't know what to do to be worthy of her.

So he always stayed by Ji Wanwan's side as the brother next door, trying to grab her attention in various exaggerated ways, but he never dared to confess his feelings.

Later, the end of the world came, Ji Wanwan became more and more capable, and more and more people admired her. Each of these people was excellent. Qi Hao became more and more inferior, and the love he had forbeared could only be buried deeper in his heart. He dared not confess to Ji Wanwan, even though his love could be seen by the whole world.

After the battle at Bai Ze Guild, he thought he was doomed to die. Before his consciousness faded, many regrets welled up in his heart. The most unacceptable thing was that his grandmother was alone and he was unable to confess his feelings to Ji Wanwan.

He didn't know how long it had passed before his consciousness gradually returned, but this feeling was sometimes strong and sometimes weak, like a lone boat on the sea, rising and falling.

When he was weak, he could only feel bursts of noisy sounds in his ears, as if he was underwater and the source of the sound was above the water. It was always unclear. No matter how hard he tried to hear or think seriously, his consciousness would disappear in an instant, making him fall into a coma again.

When he was strong, he could think, hear what others said, and feel the warmth of the sun, but he was unable to wake up.

Whenever this happens, he would think a lot.

Is he still alive?
Where is he now?
How is grandma now?

Did Wanwan and the others win the fight?

If he could see them again, he would never make grandma angry again, would care about her more, and take better care of her. Also, he would make his feelings known to Wanwan so as not to leave any regrets for himself!

These thoughts kept circling in his mind until one day, he felt someone touch his body.

He was terrified and wanted to move, open his eyes, and speak, but he could do nothing.

Suddenly, the voice that had been haunting him appeared in his ears.

"Brother Qi Hao, I miss you..."

At this moment, Qi Hao, who was in chaos, had an extremely urgent desire to wake up.

It was also from that time on that he became more and more conscious and heard Wanwan's voice more and more often, until tonight.

His grandmother's appearance made him feel extremely guilty.

He hasn't even fulfilled his filial duty yet, so how could he leave his elderly grandmother alone to face this horrific end of the world?

Next is Zhou Kai.

good boy!
While he was unconscious, he came to steal the house again!

You kid, you're even more cunning than Xu Siming! You're actually playing the emotional card!
It’s true that my uncle can tolerate it but he can’t!
He was just complaining in his heart, but who would have thought that he suddenly felt a tearing pain.

The pain made him lose all ability to think in an instant.

Damn, why does it hurt so much?
As the pain in his throat gradually became less severe and his other senses slowly returned, Qi Hao discovered that he could control his body.

He opened his eyes impatiently, but the dazzling light hurt his eyes and he closed them again abruptly.

There were spots of light in front of his eyes caused by the sun's flash, which was extremely uncomfortable, but Qi Hao smiled silently.

He's not dead!
He's not dead! !

Hahaha! He's not dead! ! Outside the room, Zhou Kai was still telling Wanwan his story, but at this moment Qi Hao felt relieved.

As a man who has died once, his heart is now stronger than ever.

Similarly, at this moment, he was also very clear about what he really wanted.

In this terrible doomsday, as long as Grandma and Wanwan are well, he will have no regrets.

……

Qi Hao's sincere confession really caught Ji Wanwan off guard.

But come to think of it, this is also reasonable.

In fact, she has always understood Qi Hao, but she just doesn't want to think about it.

Looking at Qi Hao's frank eyes, she suddenly relaxed and couldn't help but smiled softly: "Thank you, Brother Qi Hao..."

If this apocalypse ever comes to an end, perhaps she will seriously reconsider her feelings.

Seeing her smile, Qi Hao also smiled.

Ji Wanwan's smile suddenly disappeared, and she narrowed her eyes dangerously: "Brother Qi Hao, tell me honestly, how much of what I said did you hear when you were unconscious?"

Qi Hao choked up.

Good guy, I accidentally revealed key information.

Wanwan is here to call for punishment.

Qi Hao stretched out his hand to beg for mercy, feeling somewhat guilty: "Just... a little bit..."

"A few hundred million?" Ji Wanwan narrowed her eyes and moved closer to Qi Hao, ready to fight.

Qi Hao shrank his neck and laughed dryly: "Haha, hahaha, it's really just a little bit. I'd be a puppy if I lied to you!"

Thinking of Qi Hao's near-death experience and his still weak body, Ji Wanwan, who was originally joking, snorted and laughed: "Okay, okay, I'll trust you this time."

She looked at the time on her watch: "Oh, there's still half an hour until the base expansion. Brother Qi Hao, do you want to go see grandma and have something to eat?"

Qi Hao nodded slightly: "Okay."

The two of them stood up together and walked out of the private space: "Brother Qi Hao, if you want to find me later, just wait for me in the private space. I will come back and take you to the new residence when I am done."

Qi Hao thought for a moment and said, "After I see grandma, I'll go to the restaurant to find you. Now that I'm awake, I should contribute to the base. I'll do what I can then."

Ji Wanwan curled her lips, smiled and nodded: "Alright~"

So, when Qi Hao arrived at the restaurant, he saw the team members and some friends who came to the base later gathered in the restaurant.

Seeing him appear, everyone stood up at once.

Ming Jing raised her hand, and countless flowers appeared out of thin air, surrounding Qi Hao.

Next came Xu Siming, who summoned countless snowflakes that flew around Qi Hao.

Next was Zhou Kai. With each snap of his fingers, small balls of fireworks bloomed around him.

Along with these were Ji Xing's various metal knocking sounds of "ding-ling-clang".

The scene was so chaotic that it would not be an exaggeration to describe it as a riot of demons.

But it was this group of funny people that made Qi Hao cry with red eyes.

Ji Wan took a step forward and gave Qi Hao a big hug: "Brother Qi Hao..."

Everyone shouted in unison: "Welcome back to the team!!!"
