Reborn in the Apocalypse: A Commoner's Survival Log

As the Hidden Dragon Squad grew stronger, their influence within the base gradually increased.

However, most of the time they do not interfere too much in base affairs.

Yan Fei was reinstated into Gu Tianqi's army shortly after the base was established because Gu Tianqi was his maternal uncle, and because he came from a military family and was an active-duty soldier. He would often go on missions with the military.

Although Lu Xingye occasionally had some complaints about this, he ultimately respected Yan Fei's wishes and could only worry silently in his heart every time Yan Fei went on a mission.

This time, because the base urgently needed a set of military communication equipment, Yan Fei had to brave the wind and snow in the extreme cold to accompany the military to a military base to retrieve the equipment.

This task is actually quite simple.

But for some reason, Lu Xingye felt uneasy.

Looking at the heavy snowfall outside, I felt uneasy and, for the first time, strongly expressed my opposition.

Yan Fei patiently coaxed Lu Xingye for a long time, repeatedly assuring him that he would return safely, before Lu Xingye finally relented.

Although Lu Xingye didn't stop him anymore, he still gave Yan Fei a lot of instructions with a dark face before watching him leave.

During Yan Fei's absence, Lu Xingye couldn't sleep at night, even while hugging his blanket.

It wasn't just because of the cold, but also because he wasn't used to the sudden absence of Yan Fei's company.

He counted down the days, finally reaching the day Yan Fei was supposed to return. But when he opened the door, he was met with the news that Yan Fei had an accident. He was thunderstruck and panicked, not knowing what to do with his hands and feet.

Hearing that Shen Zechuan and the others were going out to rescue him, he was anxious to go with them, but everyone stopped him because they said he couldn't help.

Since the apocalypse, this is the first time Lu Xingye has clearly realized how useless his superpower is.

He couldn't help but secretly resent himself for having water-based superpowers.

No matter how angry he was, he could only grit his teeth and choose to stay, repeatedly urging Shen Zechuan and Zhou Yang to make sure they rescued Yan Fei.

The waiting time was anxious and helpless.

Lu Xingye sat by the window all day waiting.

Fortunately, Shen Zechuan and his men brought Yan Fei and the others back in the middle of the night.

Upon hearing the news, Lu Xingye immediately rushed to the base hospital.

However, the moment she saw Yan Fei, tears streamed down her face.

He did return, but he came back seriously injured and unconscious on a stretcher.

His face was pale and bloodless, as if he were lifeless. A huge, penetrating wound on his abdomen had stained his entire abdominal cavity a dark reddish-black.

The man, whom I remembered as omnipotent and powerful, was now lying in the operating room, letting the medical staff operate on him, and he didn't even react when they were sutured without anesthesia.

Seeing this, Lu Xingye's tears fell even faster, and he couldn't stop them.

Lu Xingye only stopped crying after Yan Fei finished his surgery, stabilized his condition, and was transferred to another ward.

Although Yan Fei's condition has stabilized, he still needs to stay in the hospital for observation due to the large size of his wound.

Lu Xingye then volunteered to stay and take care of him.

Seeing this, no one else stopped him, and Zhou Yang even left him a folding cot and a blanket.

But Lu Xingye couldn't sleep. He sat by the hospital bed, staring intently at Yan Fei, afraid that the man would be gone if he looked away for even a moment.

When he couldn't stay awake any longer in the middle of the night, and saw that Yan Fei's condition had stabilized considerably after the IV drip and that his face had regained some color, he wrapped himself in a blanket and dozed off for a while on the cot.

But because of the noise in the hospital and my uneasy state of mind, I only slept for two or three hours before waking up before dawn.

He then sat back down by the hospital bed, staring blankly at Yan Fei.

She sat there until dawn, when the doctor came to check on her.

"Doctor, how is he now?" After the doctor finished the examination, Lu Xingye immediately pulled the doctor aside and asked.

"He's recovering well. Superhumans are much stronger than ordinary people, and he's one of the best. He should wake up soon, so don't worry."

Upon hearing this, Lu Xingye finally felt relieved.

Later, when Shen Zechuan and the others came to deliver the food, I was finally able to eat a few bites.

Sure enough, Yan Fei woke up not long after.

After his initial excitement, Lu Xingye couldn't help but get angry again when he saw the person who had just woken up.

He no longer believed Yan Fei's repeated assurances; they were all lies.

Finally, after Yan Fei repeatedly assured him that this would be the last time he went on a mission alone with someone else, he stopped having a dark expression.

Back home, after settling everyone in, Lu Xingye remembered that Yan Fei hadn't eaten for two or three days, so he immediately went to ask Zhou Yang for a bowl of congee and pumpkin wontons.

Since Yan Fei couldn't move, he fed him bite by bite.

Remembering that the doctor said not to eat too much during the recovery period, Lu Xingye only dared to let him eat until he was half full.

Then, after hesitating for a moment, she turned around, took out the terrible scarf she had knitted, and handed it over.

Although he spoke with great conviction, he still had a basic sense of aesthetics; the clothes were indeed so ugly they were unbearable to look at.

But he still wanted to give it away.

After all, this was the first scarf he had ever knitted himself.

When I was knitting it, I was thinking of giving it to Yan Fei.

Although the process was fraught with difficulties, it was ultimately completed thanks to the help of Zhou Yang and the others...

Fortunately, Yan Fei was sensible. Although she was a bit ugly, he would still pamper his own wife!

So far, they didn't find it offensive; instead, they happily surrounded them on the spot.

night.

Lu Xingye was afraid that he might disturb Yan Fei's wound while sleeping, so he wanted to sleep on the floor by himself, but Yan Fei rejected him as soon as he mentioned his idea.

"No, I'm not used to sleeping alone. Besides, you only like to hug something when you sleep, you won't kick me, so why would you need to sleep on the floor?"

Actually, Lu Xingye didn't really want to sleep alone. He had gotten used to Yan Fei warming his bed for him during this period of time, and he hadn't slept well in the few days that Yan Fei was away.

However, considering Yan Fei's injuries, Lu Xingye shook his head.

"No, what if I fall asleep and get bored, and accidentally touch your wound? This isn't a minor injury like before!"

Hearing this, Yan Fei still held onto Lu Xingye tightly: "I'm not an ordinary person like before anymore. Besides, the doctor said I'm recovering very quickly. Look, I only slept for one night and then woke up. Maybe if I get a good night's sleep tonight, I'll be able to get out of bed tomorrow? But if you don't sleep with me, I won't be able to sleep tonight!"

"Are you a child? You can't sleep without me by your side?!" Lu Xingye glared at Yan Fei.

"meeting!"

Yan Fei answered decisively.

Lu Xingye's lips twitched upon hearing this, but he stopped his movement to get the bedding.

"Then... if I accidentally touch your wound tonight, you must wake me up."

“Okay.” Yan Fei’s eyes lit up and he nodded repeatedly.

But deep down, she had already made up her mind that even if the wound reopened, she wouldn't be willing to wake up the person in front of her, whose eyes were clearly dark from lack of sleep.

After turning off the lights, Lu Xingye had just gotten into bed when Yan Fei pulled him into a hug, and he rested his head on Yan Fei's shoulder.

Lu Xingye was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously wanted to step back, but he was afraid that moving around would aggravate Yan Fei's wound. In the end, he thought about it and didn't move. He just obediently put his hands and feet back, trying his best not to touch Yan Fei's wound.

Watching Lu Xingye's adorable little gestures, Yan Fei smiled silently and reached out to ruffle the soft, stray hairs of the person in his arms.

The atmosphere inside the room immediately quieted down.

……

"A-Ye, I don't want to wait any longer."

……

In the quiet and warm atmosphere, Lu Xingye soon began to doze off.

In a daze, he heard Yan Fei whisper these words in his ear, and he immediately perked up instinctively: "Ah, what did you say we're waiting for?"

“I’m waiting for you to come to your senses. I only realized this when things went wrong, and I can’t afford to wait any longer.” Yan Fei rubbed his chin against the top of the head of the person in his arms. “So let’s be together, like Zechuan and Zhou Yang.”

"What?" Lu Xingye's previously confused mind cleared up considerably.

After figuring out Yan Fei's meaning, she was stunned again, and her face began to flush.

He stammered for a long time, but in the end, he didn't know what to say, so he awkwardly picked at the bed sheet with his toes.

"Ah Ye, are you willing?"

Seeing that Lu Xingye hadn't spoken for a while, Yan Fei asked again, then stared intently at the person in his arms in the darkness, at those bright yet bewildered eyes.

"You... why are you suddenly saying this?! And you actually like me..."

Lu Xingye was very glad that it was dark and dark, otherwise he would be blushing as red as a monkey's bottom and would definitely feel ashamed.

Yan Fei chuckled: "I thought I'd been obvious enough. Shen Zechuan and the others figured it out a long time ago. Only you, you little fool, haven't reacted yet. So, little Lu Xingye, are you willing to say yes?"

"I...I don't know..." Do I like you too...?

Lu Xingye was somewhat confused.

Lu Xingye was well aware of Yan Fei's favoritism towards him.

But he always thought that Yan Fei was only showing him special care because he had lost his parents, and he always felt that he regarded Yan Fei as his own brother.

So for so long, he has accepted being favored and pampered without any reservations. Even when Yan Fei often holds him in his arms to sleep, he doesn't feel anything is wrong.

But now that Yan Fei has pointed it out, he is shocked to realize that this favoritism and pampering seems a bit too heavy.

It turns out that the other person's favoritism towards him was neither friendship nor familial affection, but romantic love...

He subconsciously resisted this change, but he couldn't bring himself to say he would reject Yan Fei.

Just as he was struggling with his thoughts, he heard Yan Fei say, "You don't need to feel guilty. I won't force you. Even if you don't want to, I will always be with you and protect you. I originally wanted to wait a little longer, but this incident caught me off guard."

Before I lost consciousness, I told myself that if I came back alive, I would tell you everything I felt for you. I don't want to have any regrets, and I don't want you to not even know that I love you when I can't come back someday.

Hearing Yan Fei say that one day he might not come back, Lu Xingye's heart tightened again, and the heart-wrenching feeling he had just experienced yesterday surged back into his heart.

He absolutely cannot lose this person!

Realizing this, Lu Xingye discovered that he really cared about this person.

It was a special kind of care, a feeling completely different from caring about my brother and Uncle Li.

It seems he... also likes Yan Fei.

After figuring it out, Lu Xingye suddenly smiled.

Then, looking up into Yan Fei's eyes in the night, he said, "You can't leave me alone to go on adventures anymore, or I'll never forgive you, and you'll spoil me even more from now on. As for my older brother's disagreement, you're in charge of handling that, and the same goes for your family!"

He's never been one to be coy, so if that's the case, then he'll accept it.

However, he wouldn't take responsibility for coming out of the closet, something that could get him beaten up.

"it is good!"

Yan Fei smiled brightly, then leaned down and kissed those lips he had long coveted for the first time in a legitimate way.
