"say ah,"

Fan Xui blankly looked at his stupid friend who was doing something at the height of stupidity.

He decided to ignore him and continued to flip through the documents without a word.

Suddenly, a small swab poked his lips.

"Come on, say ah. For your dear darling childhood friend. Pleeaseee~"

He sighed loudly. "Qian, don't you have a job?"

"Yeah I'm doing it." he grinned exposing his thirty teeth.

Fan Xui just dully raised his brow. "Really? Bothering me is your job?"

"No finding the solution to all this is my job. I'm starting with you my friend. Your darling brain is my answer to all." Qian looked enthusiastic as he was storing the swab in a small bottle. "so do you realize it when the second Fan Xui comes online? Do you feel a tingle? A numbing sensation? or is it dizzying feeling?"

Fan Xui rolled his eye and silently did his work. So many things had to be sorted. The crops that were planted right after the second meteor shower all failed.

Now they were left with only a few tons of food. It can feed the population for a while.... only for a little while.

Priestly was still trying to figure out why the plants failed.

'And here is this bozo playing with my dna.'

"I know that look. You're giving me that 'why don't you get lost' look. Come on, you can't be so mean to chase me out, right? I'm just trying to find answers."

"Go search for them instead of asking me," Fan waved him away.

"No! Fan Xui knows something. He might really know the solution to this problem! You know I was wrong in my decision. You're second Fan Xui is not a personality rather he is another being. He is from another timelines... the same timeline your darling is from,"

Fan Xui froze. "I don't know what you are talking about?"

"Don't act innocent. You know about your darling lover's story, right? He's from another timeline."

"...." he signed the documents and placed them to the side. The pile of the document was unending. Even after working for a whole afternoon he still wasn't able to reduce it even a bit.

"Don't give me the silent treatment. Tell me the truth. He is from the future and he knows a lot. But there is one thing he doesn't know... he doesn't know how to find a cure for this virus. But, your Fan Xui knows. He knew,"

Fan Xui did not outright give a reaction, but this information indeed shocked him. "oh I see."

"That's all. That's the reaction you're willing to give. Come on Fan. it's amazing news. If we can make the second Fan Xui talk, we can find a cure for all this mess,"

Fan Xui felt his headache slightly. It was the familiar feeling when he lost consciousness. He closed his eyes tightly, wishing for that person to go away.

"Fan?" Qian peered at him with a grin. But soon his smile wilted away. His friend was not responding. He was not writing the reply either. He just sat there frozen.

"Hey.." he shook his shoulders.

Suddenly Fan glanced up exposing his sparkling blue eyes. "I told you not to ask again. Qian stop meddling in things you have no control over."

"Fan! Just the one I need. Come one tell me how to find the cure. If I get the formula I can mass produce it and we can end this. we can solve this. We don't have to go through this for ten years. You can change that Fan! You can."

Fan Xui looked at him with a sad smile. "Sorry my friend. It is not possible. Even if you find it.... it can't be mass-produced. It can only save a few..... It's useless. We failed. We failed to find a proper cure. Instead, in this life find a cure that works for all. If I tell you the method, you will be stuck with it..... Just keep going. Don't lose confidence. You have done it once, you can do it again."

Qian started to tear up. "yeah.. but... but... this mess I wish to solve it faster. I don't want anyone else to die. It's so bad Fan. I can't believe so many people are suffering because of my mistake.. I regret. I regret even finding that virus."

Fan Xui gently patted his trembling shoulders. "It's...  won't say it's entirely your fault. You did it out of good intent. You can solve this. I believe in you. Until you find a cure don't disturb me. I don't want to intervene too much,"

Qian suddenly held his hand. "is your presence hurting Fan Xui?"

"Partially yes, he.. he is surprisingly a jealous fucker. when you get time find a good sewing teacher for him. My other self sucks." He said and his eyes changed colour, returning to the deep black shade.

Fan Xui looked at him friend with his eyes narrowed. "what did he say?"

"hahah hahah..."

"ya what did he say? Why are you laughing like a maniac!"

Qian crumbled down to the floor, laughing. "he said.. he said you're a jealous pot of vinegar and... hahah.. you suck at sewing! He wanted me to find a good teacher for you, hahahah. The great Fan Xui is bad at something!!"

Fan Xui kicked him slightly. "Get out if you are going to continue mocking me,"

He glanced at the wall clock. It was one pm. His stomach was slightly growling.

"I'll go home and have my lunch,"

"Huh? We have food in the canteen,"

"I want to eat something else. Something more delicious," he chuckled and walked out with a hop in his step.

Qian just laid on the floor thinking about his words. "what's more delicious.. ohh ohhhh... Fan Xui my best friend you have improved a lot. You have improved indeed. And it all thanks to my tutoring!"

A small bottle flew at him.

He swiftly dodged it.

Fan Xui stared at him coldly from the door. "it's a skill I developed. What do you know, you were a single dog for a long time,"

"Get back here!" he ran after him.
