When Qi Weiguo saw Qi Yaoyao pointing to the platform, he was first surprised, then said, “Did your brother awaken to an ability? And get hired as a bodyguard by Nie shao from the capital?”
“Jingchen has a promising future! With Nie shao, he won’t have to worry about food or clothes!” Someone else said.
Qi Yaoyao responded with an ambiguous sound, and wasn’t sure what to say. She knew very well that Nie Yi was the one who was clinging to her brother, but when others saw them together, they might think otherwise, and might even assume that her brother… Even if her brother didn’t care, she didn’t want others to misunderstand her ge.
Qi Weiguo honestly had many things to speak with Qi Yaoyao about, but seeing Qi Yaoyao wearing the same clothes as the other combatants with such a valiant and formidable aura, he was momentarily at a loss for words. He awkwardly rubbed his arms and finally said, “Yaoyao, you’re very busy right? Do you want to go with them?”
“I have to go; where do you guys live, Uncle Weiguo? I’ll look for you later,” Qi Yaoyao said. Even though she wasn’t in close contact with these people before, she still felt more intimacy towards them in an environment like the apocalypse.
“I live in the northern shack in the fifth region. If you want to find me, just ask around,” Qi Weiguo said.
Qi Yaoyao memorised the address before leaving. The moment she departed, Qi Weiguo and Zhang Laoliu were surrounded by the people asking about Qi Yaoyao’s situation.
Just now, they had heard that Qi Yaoyao didn’t have an ability— Since a young girl with no ability could join the team, couldn’t the others do so?
No one had dared to kill zombies. The secure base previously enlisted some people, and in the end, every one of them died… But this team wasn’t the same ah!
They could see that this team had many ability users mixed in, and many weapons, so they could kill many zombies without losing members.
Qi Weiguo had always been an ordinary person that could not be more commonplace, and this was the first time he was surrounded and questioned by a group of people. Aside from feeling embarrassed and being at a complete loss, he felt slight happiness.
Qi Yaoyao returned to the team and followed them back to the residence, then went to look for Qi Jingchen.
Qi Jingchen and Nie Yi returned a little later. Right when they arrived, they heard that Qi Yaoyao had been looking for them and immediately called her. “Yaoyao, did something come up?”
These days, Qi Jingchen more or less had turned back into the brother Qi Yaoyao remembered, but they weren’t as close as they used to be… Well, there was nothing she could do about it. Who made Nie Yi forbid anything aside from plants from touching her ge? He wouldn’t even let her get close! Qi Yaoyao secretly glared at Nie Yi, then told Qi Jingchen about Qi Weiguo.
When he heard the name, Qi Jingchen was somewhat distracted.
After the apocalypse struck in his last life, he had taken the initiative to bring Qi Yaoyao and Guan Jiayu to look for Qi Weiguo and the others, before going with the group back to their hometown.
He had been in a bad state, and Qi Yaoyao and Guan Jiayu were incompetent. In fact, they more or less inconvenienced the others, and the others would make sure they knew. But even so, the three of them weren’t abandoned.
When they temporarily stopped by W County secure base, Guan Jiayu divulged his secret to W County secure base’s people. When they captured him, to avoid leaking information, they had even killed off the informant Guan Jiayu, so naturally Qi Weiguo and the others weren’t let off.
Qi Jingchen knew that while Qi Weiguo and the others weren’t great people, they weren’t bad either. In his last life, they had even died due to associating with him.
“We can bring them along when we leave,” Qi Jingchen said, “We’ll be going back home to take a look.”
When Qi Yaoyao heard the first half of the sentence, she didn’t really react much, but was astonished by the latter. “We’re going home?” She thought that after they solved the problems here, they’d return to B City secure base like before.
Who didn’t want to check back home? But everywhere was overrun with zombies and it was too dangerous, so even if many wanted to go home, they could only wish for it.
“Of course we’ll go back,” Qi Jingchen said. Now that he thought about it, though it was just following his heart, he wanted to go back and bury his foster parents.
Qi Yaoyao smiled widely.
“Yaoyao, let me teach you how to wrap zongzis ba,” Qi Jingchen suddenly said.
Qi Yaoyao blinked, recalling that her mother would wrap zongzis every Qingming Festival. Occasionally, she would wrap some even if there were no special festivities. Qi Yaoyao’s eyes reddened at the rims.
Her mom had wanted to teach her how to wrap zongzis in the past, but she didn’t want to learn. She felt that zongzis could just be store-bought; wrapping them manually was just so troublesome. When her mother said her brother could wrap zongzi, she was angry, wondering why she was being compared to her brother again. She had thrown another tantrum.
Now, the only one who could teach her how to wrap zongzis was her ge…
“Ge, I’ll definitely learn well,” Qi Yaoyao said.
There were many ways to wrap zongzis, and Qi Jingchen only knew the simplest method, which was wrapping the four corners. One leaf was enough to wrap a smaller zongzi, but for a larger one, they had to add a second.

It had been ages since Qi Jingchen had last wrapped zongzi, and he was out of practice. His first zongzi even came apart right after he wrapped it. He didn’t get angry, pulling it apart to try once more.
This time, it came out better. He demonstrated and slowly wrapped three more.
Mother Ping and the others didn’t know how to wrap zongzis. They were a hassle to wrap, and a hassle to cook. If they really wanted to eat some, it was more convenient to just buy some. However, after seeing Qi Jingchen wrap a few, they all learned too. Of course, they didn’t wrap especially well.
However, the one who learnt the quickest wasn’t Mother Ping who was rather good at cooking, nor was it Qi Yaoyao, who studied the most earnestly. It was Nie Yi.
After Qi Jingchen wrapped one, Nie Yi wrapped one. Though he broke a wrapping leaf once, it was fine if he added a second. After Qi Jingchen wrapped three zongzis, Nie Yi could already wrap them quickly and nicely.
Spiritual strength was just this useful! Of course, Nie Yi thought that it was mainly due to his own strong capabilities.
When Qi Jingchen wanted to wrap the fifth zongzi, Nie Yi stopped him. “I can wrap the zongzis, you shouldn’t hurt your hands.” He took Qi Jingchen’s soy sauce-stained hands and washed them with his water ability.
Could wrapping zongzis hurt one’s hand?
Qi Jingchen smiled. “Okay.”
Nie Yi placed a chair at Qi Jingchen’s side for him to sit, and stuffed a book he pulled out from somewhere into Qi Jingchen’s hands. He then tied together the four zongzis Qi Jingchen had made as a note to show that it was done by Jingchen, even specially placing them at the side.
So many zongzis were wrapped that he and Qi Jingchen definitely wouldn’t be able to finish them, but they wouldn’t taste good after being left for too long… If Qi Jingchen wrapped a lot, wouldn’t he have to distribute them to others? No way!
After the savoury and sweet zongzis were completely wrapped, he lit a coal stove and began to cook them.
The zongzis had to be boiled at a high temperature, then steamed a little longer in low heat. Using a coal stove was suitable, but the best, of course, were the large, iron cooking stoves“The orphans are really pitiful. Bring them too, we’ll play together… Chief Su, do you want to come as well?” Qi Jingchen asked.
“I’ll go take a look too.” Su Haisheng had no reason to refuse. Him going would make it convenient to bring more people…
When Qi Weiguo saw Qi Yaoyao pointing to the platform, he was first surprised, then said, “Did your brother awaken to an ability? And get hired as a bodyguard by Nie shao from the capital?”

When Qi Yaoyao heard the first half of the sentence, she didn’t really react much, but was astonished by the latter. “We’re going home?” She thought that after they solved the problems here, they’d return to B City secure base like before.
Who didn’t want to check back home? But everywhere was overrun with zombies and it was too dangerous, so even if many wanted to go home, they could only wish for it.
