The two men quietly embraced each other for a while. Lin Wenbo repeatedly patted Gong Lixin's back as if to comfort him, even though he was actually comforting himself. The moment the person rushed into his arms, the suppressed fear in his heart disappeared. Allowing him to lower the walls around his heart. He tightened his arms vigorously, as if he was afraid that it was just a dream.
Gong Lixin felt his strong unease and frowned a bit, but did not break away.
"Two days and two nights, you really took your time!" He Jin's face was dark when he finally interrupted the two, the sarcasm and dissatisfaction in his tone obvious.
They didn't even help collect the child's belongings, and because of that he had thought that the Gong family had completely abandoned the child, as if they no longer wanted him. When he finally decided to take the child away, the Gong family caught up with them and he couldn't help but feel troubled. [1]

Lin Wenbo slowly loosened his hold on Gong Lixin and straightened up to look at the miserable He Jin.
"You are?" He hesitated. He did not like the man in front of him. Moreover, this man also didn't like him and was watching him with eyes filled with cold hostility.
"This is Big Brother He!" Gong Lixin walked over to He Jin and took the initiative to hold his big hand while he talked to the two. "I've been with Big Brother He for the past two days."
He Jin squeezed the soft and smooth palm of the child, the hostility in his eyes faded a bit and the corner of his lips bent upwards slightly. He was very satisfied with how close he was to the child and how trusted he was. He reached out to Lin Wenbo and said, "Hello, He Jin."
Lin Wenbo took his hand and thanked him. "Hello, Lin Wenbo. Thank you for taking care of Xiaoxin. What are your requirements? After arriving at the base, we will try our best to satisfy your needs." He subconsciously put a distance between He Jin and the child, changing the relationship between the two, making it seem like Gong Lixin was just a business deal to He Jin and that was why He Jin had saved him.
This was He Jin's original intention [2], but after listening to Lin Wenbo, he only felt his ears sting and his heart tighten. He didn't dare to look at the child's clear eyes and his tone was stiff when he answered. "It was no problem caring for Lixin. You don't need to thank me. But the Gong family had already received the news of the apocalypse, so how could you put Lixin in such a dangerous situation? What were you thinking?"
This time, it was Lin Wenbo's turn to grieve. He couldn't tell him about Gong Xiangyi, and could only smile awkwardly and show his regret in his eyes. Two equally tall men stood opposite of each other. Although they met for the first time, it seemed that they would not get along and the surrounding atmosphere was frosty.

"Big Brother Lin, where's Big Brother Song? Is Dad and Grandfather still well?" Gong Lixin promptly asked and interrupted the two.
He Jin heard his question and his brows wrinkled. He was very concerned about this Big Brother Song who was always mentioned by the child.
Lin Wenbo remembered that his friend was still searching in the city and quickly pulled out the satellite communicator. He saw that there were several missed calls; there were from Gong Father, Song Haoran and his grandfather, but none from Gong Xiangyi.
His brows wrinkled. He pressed down the frost in his heart and softly answered, "Everyone is well. Your Song Brother is still looking for you in the city and is worried about you, everyone was worried. Let's leave first, wait to find a safe spot and we'll call them to report that you were found."
