Reborn in the Apocalypse: A Commoner's Survival Log

Lu Xingye spent most of his summer vacation at Yan Fei's house that year.

During this time, Yan Fei was to be sent to the military camp for three weeks of training, so Lu Xingye took the opportunity to go with him once.

Not long after meeting Yan Fei, Lu Xingye learned that Yan Fei and Shen Zechuan were occasionally sent to military camps for training by their families. Lu Xingye had long been curious about this, and now that he had the opportunity, he wanted Yan Fei to take him along.

Yan Fei thought about it and decided that rather than letting Lu Xingye go home alone and overthink things, it would be better for him to come to the military camp with Lu Xingye for training.

So he agreed without much thought and then went to his father to ask for special treatment.

Yan's father had already heard about Lu Xingye's family's situation, but he didn't object and approved it with a wave of his hand.

Since it's teenagers training in a military camp, it's impossible for it to be as intense as real military training. The difficulty is actually similar to that of military training for ordinary college students. However, for Lu Xingye, who has only experienced small-scale training for the transition from primary to junior high school, it's incredibly difficult.

On the first day of training, he ran 5 kilometers with weights, which exhausted him to the point of collapse.

The subsequent training in military boxing, 20-kilometer hiking, and nighttime mountain climbing with heavy loads further honed Lu Xingye to the point that he could no longer remember the pain of his parents' deaths.

Every day, I train as soon as I open my eyes and sleep as soon as I lie down.

In contrast to Lu Xingye's struggles, Yan Fei and Shen Zechuan, who had been thrown into training during their long holidays since childhood, adapted well. In the evenings, they even helped Lu Xingye massage and relax his muscles to prevent him from being unable to get up the next day.

Even so, Lu Xingye complained incessantly every day.

Fortunately, with the help of Yan Fei and Shen Zechuan, he persevered through gritted teeth.

After more than half a month, all three of them had gotten a shade darker, but their bodies had become much stronger.

Especially Lu Xingye, after more than half a month of training, has completely emerged from the shadow of the death of his parents, and his face is now showing a genuine smile from the bottom of his heart.

Yan Fei felt much more at ease.

After that, they… (the content in parentheses is the deleted part, you know… T∧T)…. Xu Zhiyi was even busier participating in competitions.

From now on, let alone playing with Lu Xingye, it will probably be difficult for everyone to even get together for a gathering.

Lu Xingye looks much better now, so he should be fine.

Just as Yan Fei had thought, after this training, Lu Xingye had indeed come to terms with many things. He not only broke free from the shadow of his parents' death, but also changed his previously carefree attitude towards learning. He no longer slacked off because of the system.

Thinking about Yan Fei's goals, (...), he busied himself participating in various national and international competitions, pushing himself even further.

He needs to keep up with the pace.

(...)

There's still some hope if we try... right?

Lu Xingye scratched his head as he looked at his bottom-ranked grades, cheered himself up, and buried himself in studying the basketful of study notes that Yan Fei, Shen Zechuan, and Xu Zhiyi had given him.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, Lu Xingye also… (…), and received several learning gift packages from Yan Fei.

Then, after Yan Fei and Shen Zechuan were thrown back into the military camp, they were picked up by Xu Zhiyi and taken home, where they began their wonderful (tragic) school life ahead of time.

He even followed Xu Zhiyi to witness the spectacular scene of the provincial competition, where he was the one waiting outside to help carry the water backpack.

When they came out, Lu Xingye was truly impressed by the group of geniuses who could recite all the exam questions and answer them verbally.

He, an ordinary person, couldn't understand at all why they could still have the leisure to memorize the questions and answers before taking an exam, unlike him who forgot everything as soon as the exam was over.

Every time his deskmate came to check the answers after an exam, he would awkwardly scratch his toes, completely unable to remember them.

After Xu Zhiyi's competition ended, Yan Fei and Shen Zechuan's training was also almost over.

(...), so they started training with a proper team, and every time they came back, they were covered in bruises, which made Lu Xingye feel sorry for them.

I heard they even went on a small mission together, and both of them sustained some injuries.

But Yan Fei and Shen Zechuan themselves didn't think anything of it, so Lu Xingye naturally didn't say anything and just silently applied medicine to them.

After Yan Fei and Shen Zechuan had some free time, they also joined the tutoring group, but this time Chai Jin was also there for tutoring.

After all, no matter how good one's athletic performance is, (...).

With Yan Fei and Xu Zhiyi's early instruction over the summer, Lu Xingye's first year went smoothly. His grades, while not top-notch, were certainly among the best.

In the early summer of that year, Yan Fei and his friends finally welcomed... (...)...

During those days, Yan Fei and the others were fine, but Lu Xingye, who hadn't taken the exam, became anxious.

They took the exam for three days, and he was anxious for all three days.

I only felt relieved after the exam was over and I heard them say that I did well.

The day after the exams ended, Chai Jin suggested organizing a small get-together, but considering that Lu Xingye still had classes, the gathering was moved to Saturday night.

The party was held in a high-end karaoke room.

Since it was a rare occasion for the group to get together again, the four of them drank freely for the first time that night.

Even Lu Xingye joined in the drinking.

However, because of his young age, Lu Xingye was only allowed to drink two cans of beer.

The group sang karaoke while playing drinking games and drinking.

After only two rounds, Lu Xingye, who rarely drinks, showed signs of drunkenness before even finishing two cans of beer. His cheeks turned bright red, and he started slurring his words, clinging to Yan Fei and rambling on and on.

Chai Jin stood to the side, pointing at Lu Xingye and mocking him for a long time.

Yan Fei hadn't expected Lu Xingye to have such a low alcohol tolerance, so he could only helplessly shake his head while holding the boisterous Lu Xingye.

Fortunately, Lu Xingye didn't make a fuss for long and soon fell asleep in Yan Fei's arms.

After three rounds, the others each finished a dozen beers.

Chai Jin's alcohol tolerance gradually declined, and after the fourth round of beer was exhausted and replaced with baijiu, he only drank one cup of baijiu before becoming the second person to collapse at the table.

Fortunately, Chai Jin was a good drinker; when he got drunk, he just lay down on the table and slept quietly, unlike Lu Xingye who caused a ruckus.

Yan Fei and the other two breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.

However, with one less person, Yan Fei and his two companions soon lost interest in drinking and, seeing that it was getting late, decided to call it a night and go home.

Chai Jin, being a big guy, was sent back by Shen Zechuan and Xu Zhiyi, while Lu Xingye, being small, could be handled by Yan Fei alone, so Yan Fei took him away.

The three dragged the two unconscious men out and hailed two taxis outside the KTV.

Thinking that there was probably no one at the Lu family home, and that this was Lu Xingye's first time getting drunk, Yan Fei was worried that he would wake up in the middle of the night feeling unwell and have no one to take care of him, so he decided to take him directly back to his own home.

So after calling Uncle Li to report, they took the person away.

As soon as Yan Fei got in the car and gave the driver the address, Lu Xingye, who was half asleep from the moving, pounced on him, hooking one arm around Yan Fei's neck and burrowing his fluffy head into his arms.

Because Lu Xingye had been drinking and was in a closed car, he soon started complaining of the heat and even started pulling off his shirt jacket.

"Brother, I'm hot."

In early June, the weather was already starting to get a bit muggy, but the nights were still quite cool.

Yan Fei noticed that he was only wearing a tank top underneath, and worried that he would catch a cold if he turned around and got chilled, so she could only coax him not to take it off.

"Stop fooling around, be good, just a little longer, we'll be there soon."

Unfortunately, Lu Xingye, who was too drunk to listen to anything, only knew that he was hot and wanted to take off his clothes. He kept struggling in Yan Fei's arms, squeezing the tall and strong Yan Fei into a corner and even taking off half of his own coat.

Seeing this, Yan Fei sighed and prepared to put Lu Xingye's coat back on, but as soon as he lowered his head, he bumped into Lu Xingye, who was tilting his head back and bulging upwards.

The moment their lips touched, the warm, smooth touch made Yan Fei freeze.

When he finally realized what was happening and was about to push the man away, Lu Xingye, exhausted from all the commotion, leaned his head on his shoulder, smacked his lips, and fell asleep.

Yan Fei stared blankly at Lu Xingye nestled on his shoulder, his gaze involuntarily drifting to those rosy lips. Recalling the touch from just now, he surprisingly didn't find it repulsive at all.

This reaction really startled him.

But it's not a big deal for a younger brother to be affectionate with his older brother, right?

He also kissed his two older brothers!

Yan Fei silently gave himself a couple of hints.

But he didn't realize that he was a child when he kissed his two older brothers, and that he kissed their cheeks.

Yan Fei remained in a daze the entire way until the driver called him when they arrived at their destination, at which point he finally snapped out of it.

She quickly banished all the random thoughts from her mind, paid the fare, and pulled Lu Xingye out of the car.

When Yan Fei took Lu Xingye in a taxi before, he noticed that the boy had only grown taller and not much fatter. He was as light as a little girl when held in his arms. Now that it was inconvenient to walk with the sleeping person, Yan Fei simply picked him up horizontally.

He led the person back to his room, put them on his bed, and quickly took off their shoes, socks, and coat. Then he got a hot towel and washed the person from head to toe.

After finishing their tasks, they quickly pulled off Lu Xingye's trousers so he could sleep more comfortably.

Just as she was about to pull the blanket over Lu Xingye, her eyes suddenly caught sight of those two slender, white legs that seemed to glow, and for some reason, she couldn't look away.

The unexpected kiss in the car earlier inexplicably came to mind again, and her cheeks suddenly felt hot.

Then, his eyes unconsciously moved to Lu Xingye's face again. His plump pink lips looked like two pieces of crystal jelly, which were especially tempting. He couldn't help but feel a tightness in his throat and even wanted to taste them.

Thinking of this, Yan Fei felt a sudden surge of heat rising from somewhere on his body.

Yan Fei wasn't a clueless naiveté; he'd heard all sorts of suggestive jokes in the military camp and was well-versed in the necessary sex education.

This kind of impulse is simply not something an older brother should have towards his younger brother.

Realizing something was wrong, Yan Fei's expression turned serious. He hastily covered the person on the bed with a blanket and then turned and headed straight for the washroom.

It was half an hour later when he came out, feeling a chill all over his body.

Lu Xingye was already curled up in bed, hugging his blanket, with one long, white leg lying across the blanket.

Yan Fei sighed, casually blew his hair a few times, then strode to the bedside and shoved Lu Xingye's long, white legs back into place.

Then he sat on the edge of the bed and looked at Lu Xingye for a long time before finally raising his hand to touch Lu Xingye's face. His thumb couldn't help but trace the lips that he had been longing for even while rinsing them with cold water.

His eyes deepened with each touch, and finally, as if he had made up his mind, his gaze hardened, and he leaned down to kiss her.

After licking and gently biting the outside, the tongue then gently pries open the other's lips and teeth, invading and plundering every inch of the inside.

Yan Fei reluctantly withdrew only after Lu Xingye began to moan due to lack of oxygen.

Seeing the person on the bed with lips that were noticeably darker from the kiss, Yan Fei smiled slightly, then climbed onto the bed and pulled the person into his arms.

He gave the person in his arms a light kiss on the head before closing his eyes and falling asleep.

Since I can't be your younger brother, I'll be your wife.

……

Lu Xingye was unaware of Yan Fei's mental journey, and when he woke up the next day, he found that he seemed to have blacked out.

I can't remember anything that happened between when I drank the alcohol and when I woke up.

Although Yan Fei felt a little regretful about this, he didn't think it was a big deal and continued to pamper Lu Xingye as always, only this time the pampering was obviously even greater than before.

They've even evolved to the point where they can't bear to say anything harsh to Lu Xingye when he makes a big mistake, which makes Shen Zechuan and the others feel their teeth ache and their eyes hurt every time they see it.

One time, unable to bear it any longer, Shen Zechuan and the others secretly asked Yan Fei while Lu Xingye was out. As a result, they learned about his nefarious intentions from their good friend, and they were all shocked.

Although the group didn't understand, they still respected Lu Xingye's decision. They all treated him like a younger brother and warned Yan Fei not to hurt him.

Seeing that Yan Fei readily agreed, the group continued to act as if nothing had happened, without revealing Yan Fei's true intentions.

The oblivious Lu Xingye still didn't realize Yan Fei's feelings. Instead, because Yan Fei was becoming more and more controlling, he gradually started to resemble a mother hen, and began to develop a rebellious mentality, increasingly liking to contradict Yan Fei.

Bickering between the two became a daily occurrence.

Time flies like an arrow, and in the blink of an eye, Lu Xingye has completed his most important exam.

However, due to the lack of extra training from several top students like Xu Zhiyi, and the increased difficulty of learning, his grades declined significantly in the later stages (…).

This made Lu Yanwen and Uncle Li very happy, and they arranged (…) for him.

Everyone was present at the banquet, except for Yan Fei, who was nowhere to be seen.

Lu Xingye waited alone at the door for a long time until Uncle Li came to call him, then he stomped his feet and entered the banquet hall.

(...), even summer vacation is only half a month, (...), and I have to go on missions from time to time.

Every time the group wanted to get together, they had to make an appointment with Yan Fei in advance. They could count the number of times they'd called him in the past six months on one hand.

So, in order to accommodate Yan Fei's schedule, he had informed Yan Fei in advance and asked his brother to choose this date, but in the end, Yan Fei didn't show up at all.

Humph! Angry!

Lu Xingye grew angrier the more he thought about it, and this anger persisted until the banquet ended, when Uncle Li drove the sports car his older brother had given him home.

Holding his anger, Lu Xingye took a shower and then angrily threw himself onto the bed. He took out his phone, found Yan Fei's social media account, and sent a long string of accusations. Then he threw his phone aside and turned on his computer to play games to vent his frustration.

I didn't even see it; a new message popped up on my phone, which I had just thrown down...
