Rebirth in the end of the world, hold the ex's thigh tightly

[Timeline, after returning to Dawn Base]

Due to the continuous drought, water has become one of the most scarce resources for human survival in the last days.

Although with the increased use of soil-improving chemicals, vegetation and crops have begun to reappear on the originally bare land, the climate has also changed, and long-awaited rainfall has begun to appear in many places.

However, even if it was not poisonous rain, due to the continuous drought in the apocalypse, there were a lot of impurities in the rainwater, and the rainfall was pitifully small, making it impossible for people to use it.

All humans can do is to cooperate with artificial rainfall technology, spread more soil improvement agents and vegetation seeds in the rainy areas, and make long-term plans.

As the largest human shelter in the country today, Nancheng Base consumes a lot of water even though it has developed a lot of water sources.

Therefore, in addition to actively developing and purifying polluted water sources, the base water plant also gathered water-related ability users together, and water supply became one of their daily tasks. Of course, points would be calculated separately.

Jiang Wenwen needs no explanation, and Liao Yu's mutation attribute as a water element is naturally unavoidable.

At the same time, at the request of Minister Wang, Jiang Nian will also purify the water source and large pool of the water plant.

They have made an indelible contribution to the fact that the water resources at the Nancheng base can meet daily distribution.

People with water-related abilities have always been one of the most sought-after groups for survival in the apocalypse, and their value has only risen as the drought continues.

Various al-Qaeda organizations offer various favorable conditions to recruit people, attracting men, women, young and old alike.

Thanks to this reason, Liao Yu's romantic luck has become extremely good recently. Zhao Lei went from being jealous to having stomach acid in the beginning, but now he has slowly adapted to it.

After all, his young master is devoted to him. Even when he is entangled in a bad love affair, he will coax him and tell him not to take it to heart. No matter what "requests" he makes in private, he will obediently agree to them.

It was not until Qian Lang appeared that Zhao Lei felt a long-lost sense of crisis.

After following them back from the Dawn Base, Qian Lang joined the Superpower Legion and quickly became friends with everyone. Because his superpowers were special, he was assigned to the team led by Jiang Nian.

Originally, this was just a normal recruitment of acquaintances, but Qian Lang and Liao Yu's "acquaintance" relationship was a little special:

Before the end of the world, Master Liao had too much money to spend, so he worked in a security company and hired a professional operations team to set up an internet celebrity incubation studio. Success or failure didn't matter, as long as the master was happy.

Xingyu is one of the young master’s investment projects. Qian Lang was a newcomer that Xingyu was promoting during the period approaching the end of the world.

Qian Lang was a gaming anchor before the end of the world. He had mostly female fans and was both good-looking and skilled. After Liao Yu recruited him, he became his top anchor.

Skirting the edge has always been one of the secret codes for traffic.

As for how to wipe and where to wipe, it depends on the situation.

The cute female fans just want to see handsome guys interacting with each other, what bad intentions can they have? If their wishes are met, won’t the traffic come?

The interactive session between the anchor and the top player on the list, forming teams, talking nonsense, and chatting about some thought-provoking topics can all bring very good results.

Zhao Lei, who was his personal bodyguard and colleague at the time, knew all this.

In the past, Zhao Lei only thought that the young master was hardworking and dedicated. With so much money, he was able to lower himself and work with internet celebrities to increase traffic. Now, when he thinks about it, he feels sore even when he breathes.

In particular, Liao Yu and Qian Lang are of similar age and have many common topics.

The two even reassembled their computers and game consoles, and found some out-of-print game cards. After get off work, they played stand-alone games together and talked about things in their previous studios...

Zhao Lei couldn't join in on either the game or the topic. After all, there was a generation gap between him and Liao Yu.

But Qian Lang was different from all the bad love affairs before. He didn’t do anything out of the ordinary and was just an ordinary good friend.

No one around them thought there was anything wrong with Qian Lang and Liao Yu being close. As a result, Zhao Lei felt unhappy but couldn't show it. He couldn't find an excuse to get angry and could only be depressed in secret.

"..."

"Master, I'm at the new area now. I'll probably be busy until the middle of the night before I go back. Don't play games too late, or you won't be able to hold on after consuming your supernatural energy during the day."

At eight o'clock in the evening, Zhao Lei was sitting in the patrol car and called Liao Yu. When he heard the game sound effects coming from the phone, his brows were furrowed.

Recently, the eldest young master has been consuming his supernatural powers at the water plant in the base during the day and has not been working with them, resulting in their schedules being out of sync after the shift change.

What a heartless person who hangs out with Qian Lang to play games right after work.

Soon, Liao Yu's clear voice came:

"Got it. Be careful and stay safe when you're on night patrol."

"..."

Zhao Lei was silent, feeling unhappy but not knowing what to say. It would be great if he was the same age as Liao Yu. Since they were young, it didn't matter if they acted unreasonably. There was no need to pretend to be mature and magnanimous.

"Brother Zhao?"

Liao Yu called him doubtfully:

"Anything else?"

"It's okay... that's it for now."

Zhao Lei hesitated to talk, and finally hung up the phone. With a helpless sigh, he started the car and headed for the patrol area.

On the other side, Liao Yu, who had hung up the phone, continued to "kill everyone" with Qian Lang.

Qian Lang glanced at his phone and teased tentatively:

"Brother Yu, I really didn't expect you to be with Brother Zhao. As the saying goes, a friend in need is a friend indeed. I guess that's what you two are like."

Liao Yu replied with a smile:

"Hey, you could say that... I didn't expect that myself."

In the past, there were many people around him, both men and women, but his love brain was not awakened at that time, and he just thought it was troublesome.

Being young, frivolous and rich, he basically tried everything that was not illegal, except for playing with feelings and people. Otherwise, he would have discovered earlier that Zhao Lei had "ill intentions" towards him.

"Actually, I wanted to pursue you, Brother Yu, because of the chemistry we had during the live broadcast. I thought we were a good match."

Qian Lang glanced sideways, his tone sincere and frank.

The eldest young master is rather slow in terms of feelings, and he knew this before the end of the world. Therefore, even if he falls in love with someone at first sight, he dare not take risks.

The original intention of signing with Xingyu Studio was actually to lure people in, so the salary requirement was very low. As long as he frequently did live broadcasts with Liao Yu and took the initiative to make plans to set up the studio together, he followed the routine of young people's passion and working together.

I originally thought that I could take advantage of work interactions to create some ambiguity, and then gradually hook up with the "boss", but I didn't expect it would be the end of the world.

"what?"

Liao Yu was so shocked that his hand slipped and he was beaten by the little BOSS in the game, losing half of his health. He quickly jumped to the side to eat the health pack, and then refused openly:

"No, even if Zhao Lei wasn't here, you're not my type. Don't look at me like this, I'm loyal."

Although he talks a lot, being with Zhao Lei seems hasty, but in fact he has seriously considered all aspects. It is not a momentary impulse, nor is it that he has no choice. It is a love that has grown over time and he is willing to do so.
