Even without cheats, we must survive the apocalypse

The night sky was vast and boundless, with twinkling stars and a bright moon. The entire sky seemed to be a stage specially built for the girl in front of him to dance.

Finally, Ruan Mengmeng stopped, exhaled heavily, slowly put away the knife and stood up.

"I knew you would come here."

The young man's voice made Ruan Mengmeng turn around, a little surprised: "Brother Xiao, why are you here?"

Chu Xiao did not answer, but gave a can of beer to Ruan Mengmeng: "Come on, don't tell me you haven't drunk this stuff before. If you can't sleep, just drink with me for a while."

The girl took the beer can, walked to Chu Xiao's side, and pulled the ring of the can.

"Go one."

"Ah."

The two men clinked their beers in their hands and poured them into their mouths at the same time.

The girl drank a big mouthful of beer in one breath and let out a long sigh of relief: "Great!"

"It's a pity it's not iced, otherwise it would be even more refreshing."

Chu Xiao reached out his hand and touched the girl's sweaty hair: "Girl, if you have anything on your mind, you can tell me now, don't keep it in your heart."

(ps: I believe everyone understands the meaning of "the moonlight is so beautiful")

Chapter 24 Heart to Heart

On the moonlit rooftop, a young couple sat casually on the steps of the rooftop, leaning close to each other, sipping beer from cans.

"Brother Xiao, how did you guess I was here?" Under the moonlight, the girl's cheeks flushed and her tone was slightly drunk. She leaned against Chu Xiao intimately, her black sports bra only covering her key parts, her smooth skin was dotted with crystal sweat, so Chu Xiao could easily feel the girl's body temperature.

She was wearing a black sports miniskirt, and her straight and slender legs were casually folded and stretched out under the skirt. Under the moonlight, they seemed to have a golden honey-colored glow, showing in front of Chu Xiao without any cover. Chu Xiao rarely saw Ruan Mengmeng wearing a skirt, so he felt a little strange.

Chu Xiao took a sip of beer and said, "You are in a bad mood. I can still tell. I have known you for so long, and I can probably guess what you will do."

"Well, I couldn't sleep, so I wanted to come out and sweat a little. It's not that I'm in a bad mood, but there are some things I can't figure out." Ruan Mengmeng closed her eyes, facing the cool night breeze, and then asked softly, "Brother Xiao, do you remember the day we first met? Sister Yan and I escaped from the warehouse."

Chu Xiao nodded. He still remembered the scene clearly. At that time, the agile Ruan Mengmeng jumped down with a graceful and heroic movement, which was truly amazing.

"In fact, before I came out of the warehouse, I almost killed Feng Junnian, who was still a human at the time." Ruan Mengmeng supported her hands behind her back, half leaned back, and looked at the sky. "If I had killed him at that time, I probably wouldn't have had that kind of trouble later. I seemed to have lost my mind at the time. If Sister Yan hadn't spoken up, I would have broken Feng Junnian's neck without hesitation."

Ruan Mengmeng suddenly asked: "Brother Xiao, the first time you killed someone was to help a bitten person get rid of his wounds, right?"

Chu Xiao nodded. That was the adventure in the hospital. Not long after that, he took the elevator and met Ruan Mengmeng, who had just been killing everyone and almost lost control.

"What does it feel like?"

“It was terrible.” Chu Xiao recalled, “I felt like my hands were stained with something that could never be washed off. I had killed so many zombies before, but the treatment of real zombies was completely different. There was even a time when I didn’t dare to look back, as if I turned around, I would see the corpse that I had shot in the head with my own hands.”

Chu Xiao smiled bitterly in his heart, thinking that if he had not met the out-of-control Ruan Mengmeng just after getting out of the elevator and accidentally got the girl's first kiss, it might have taken him some effort to get over it.

"In fact, I thought I would have a nightmare tonight, but I didn't dream of anything. This is what they show in TV dramas."

"Yeah, this is normal." Ruan Mengmeng took a sip of wine and kicked her long legs casually, "But I didn't have that feeling. At that time, I was enjoying it."

enjoy?

"That's just the impact of the virus." Chu Xiao comforted.

Ruan Mengmeng shook her head: "I thought so at first, but I can't fool myself. The so-called virus is just a trigger, just an excuse. At most, it just exposed the real me."

She looked at Chu Xiao, her face showing no hesitation, only confusion, and even a hint of worry: "When I was killing, I felt really happy, as if there was a fire burning in my heart that couldn't be extinguished, and it was burning brighter and brighter. Last night, when I killed those scum, I didn't feel any guilt at all. On the contrary, I felt really excited. My brain seemed to be on fire. Their blood and screams made me feel so... sweet..."

"Why would my Mengmeng think about so many things?" Chu Xiao stroked Ruan Mengmeng's head lovingly and said deliberately, "That's not like you."

"Brother Xiao, I'm not stupid, I just don't like to use my brain." Ruan Mengmeng pouted playfully and leaned sideways in Chu Xiao's arms. Then her expression fell again. "I'm actually very worried. The virus is changing me. It amplifies the darkest and bloodthirsty part of my heart. I'm worried that if this continues, I will really lose control and let my heart get out of control, turning into that kind of monster and swinging the knife at you..."

So, is this the reason why Ruan Mengmeng has been absent-minded recently?

Chu Xiao was a little surprised. He originally thought that it was the guilt brought about by killing her own kind for the first time, but it turned out to be the opposite. She was overthinking because she had no sense of guilt.

Ruan Mengmeng has a pure and simple mind, but people like her, once they get stuck in a rut, can become very troublesome.

As the two chatted, the girl's voice became noticeably drunker by the end of her speech.

The beer can rolled to Ruan Mengmeng's feet and was empty.

Chu Xiao was a little surprised. This girl actually drank so fast. He had only drunk half of the beer, but she had already finished it? And why was she so drunk? It was just a can of beer. Could it make people drunk? Her alcohol tolerance was too low, right?

"Didn't we mention this when we were chatting before?" Chu Xiao recalled what Ruan Mengmeng had said during their casual chat. "The 'virus' in my body seems to have been a little more obedient recently. It's not as easy to get carried away as before."

That was before coming to this club, when he was chatting with Ruan Mengmeng about the battle in the shelter. The girl said it casually, especially when she mentioned the word "practice", which made Chu Xiao think of many things.

"Although that's the case, but..." Ruan Mengmeng leaned weakly in Chu Xiao's arms, feeling a little dizzy under the influence of alcohol.

Chu Xiao looked at the girl's slightly drunk face and asked inexplicably, "Do you want to... practice again?"

The tipsy girl in his arms slowly raised her face, her eyes hazy, her lips rosy, and she exhaled hot air as she opened and closed them slightly: "Yes, I haven't practiced with Brother Xiao for a long time... If I practice... I won't lose control... right?"

"That's right." Chu Xiao's voice unconsciously became lower, watching the girl's cherry lips getting closer.

"But... I don't want to 'practice' for that kind of thing..." The girl's voice was already filled with low gasps, and a charming moisture filled her eyes, "I don't want to 'practice' with that kind of purpose..."

"That was just by the way..."

"By the way... then you can..."

Their lips moved closer and closer until they finally touched.

At this moment, it was like a spark falling on the fuel, and a flame was completely ignited between the two. Although Ruan Mengmeng had "practiced" many times before, her movements still seemed very awkward and clumsy. Under the influence of alcohol, the girl's soft tongue tried hard to invade Chu Xiao's mouth, but was still easily beaten by the other party.

The girl changed her movements and sat on top of Chu Xiao, wrapping her long legs tightly around his waist. She felt a pair of rough hands stroking her thighs, as if the palms were going to burn her.

"Brother Xiao... I really like it. Where are my legs..." Ruan Mengmeng said softly while her lips parted to catch her breath. But the next sentence made Chu Xiao blush, "But... Brother Xiao, why... your reaction is a little slow?"

Chu Xiao's expression suddenly became very awkward. He had recovered, but he had not yet fully recovered his fighting ability. At the same time, An Suxin, who was sleeping in the room, showed a satisfied smile...

(ps: A reader friend suggested that we can take down Miss Ruan in this chapter. To be honest, I was really tempted, after all, the environment and atmosphere are very good. But later I thought that instead of making such an important breakthrough in this side story, it would be better to leave it in the main story dungeon later...)

Chapter 25 Night Chat

Halfway through the "practice" with the girl, Ruan Mengmeng fell asleep under the influence of alcohol.

Chu Xiao didn't do anything to the sleeping girl in the end, and held her in his arms with pity. Looking at the girl's pretty face, the tipsiness after being drunk made her look like a delicate water lily. That sharp and aggressive temperament was gone at this moment, revealing the girl's delicate and cute appearance.

He supported the girl's back with one hand and passed the other hand through her legs. The drunken girl instinctively put her arms around Chu Xiao's neck and leaned her head tightly against his chest.

Having known Ruan Mengmeng for such a long time, this was the first time Chu Xiao saw this girl so tender and gentle. Chu Xiao had always had the impression that she was a straight-talking, bold, and agile little queen with long legs, but he did not expect that she would have such a tender and lovely side after getting drunk.

"This is really... I got to know a different you again."

Chu Xiao couldn't help but pecked Ruan Mengmeng's alluring cherry lips, but he didn't expect that the girl, who was obviously asleep, would instinctively stick out her tongue, causing Chu Xiao to almost get into another verbal dispute.

With great willpower, he left the girl's soft lips, carefully stood up while holding Ruan Mengmeng, and slowly walked towards the lounge.

After leaving the rooftop, the dark corridor did not hinder Chu Xiao's vision, but he still walked very slowly, for fear of disturbing the sleeping girl.

When he opened the door of the lounge, he found his sister sitting on the sofa, with a pair of bright eyes flickering in the dark room, as if the stars in the sky had fallen beside her. That beautiful face appeared in the deep night, as if a beautiful elf from a fantasy world suddenly crossed over.

Chu Xiao looked at his sister's half-smile and felt a little embarrassed. If he really couldn't help but do something just now, his sister would probably get angry again... Although his sister was also super cute when she got angry.

"You guys drank?" Chu Yan came over and whispered, raising her hand to brush Ruan Mengmeng's bangs. "Mengmeng can't drink much, brother, how could you let her drink?"

"I didn't expect that she could get so drunk with just a can of beer." Chu Xiao said with a wry smile.

"But, this is also good." Chu Yan tilted her head and smiled slightly, looking at Ruan Mengmeng with a look of doting like an older sister looking at her younger sister. "With you, her brother, accompanying her to get drunk like this, Mengmeng's knot in her heart should be untied."

"Why aren't you asleep?"

"Why, brother, do you want me to sleep a little deeper?" Chu Yan leaned close to Chu Xiao's ear. In the warm breath, Chu Xiao could faintly smell the fragrance of shower gel coming from his sister. "Humph, brother, do you have any other bad things you want to do?"

"Really? How can you not trust your brother so much?" Chu Xiao said sternly.

"But, brother," Chu Yan stretched out her finger and tapped her brother's lips, "your lips are almost swollen, and there are teeth marks left."

Chu Xiao smiled awkwardly and Chu Yan rolled her eyes in annoyance.

"Hmph, my two best friends have both been ruined by you, brother." Chu Yan pinched her brother's cheeks unhappily as she said this, and her pretty face puffed up like a puffer fish.

"They are all really rare good girls," Chu Xiao said sincerely, "Xiao Yan, you really made some very good friends."

Chu Yan said: "Of course I know they are good, but who knew they would fall in love with you so quickly."

In fact, Chu Yan herself knew the reason. Meng Meng and Su Su were both candidates for sister-in-law that Chu Yan had found for herself before. Her purpose at that time was to find a woman who would not hinder herself and her brother. Therefore, Chu Yan always spoke well of her brother to her two best friends before... In other words, the sister who was obsessed with her brother always unconsciously showed off her brother. Therefore, in fact, before the disaster broke out, Meng Meng and Su Su already had a certain basis for favorability towards Chu Xiao.

The pit she is in now was actually dug by herself before...

"Brother Xiao... practice... continue... practice..."

A vague mumbling sound came from Ruan Mengmeng and Chu Xiao's arms, like a cat that had been sleeping soundly.

Chu Xiao originally wanted to carry Ruan Mengmeng into the girls' bedroom, but the bedroom was too crowded and going directly there would easily wake up the sleeping girls. So, after getting his sister's consent, Chu Xiao gently threw Ruan Mengmeng onto the sofa.

The girl hugged Chu Xiao's neck tightly and refused to let go. It took Chu Xiao a lot of effort to put Ruan Mengmeng down and cover her with a thin blanket.

The sleeping place was originally given to Ruan Mengmeng, and Chu Xiao was going to curl up on the single sofa and spend the night there casually. He found a more comfortable position on the sofa and was about to close his eyes when he saw his sister coming in front of him with a thin blanket, then she snuggled into Chu Xiao's arms and covered the two of them with the thin blanket.

"Aren't you going back to the bedroom?"

"Yeah, I'm also worried about waking them up." The girl smiled brightly and buried her head in her brother's chest, as if listening to his heartbeat.

Chu Xiao smiled and naturally put his arms around his sister's slender waist. Through the thin nightgown, he felt as if he was holding a piece of cool and delicate jade. The pair of slender and well-proportioned legs were curled up on Chu Xiao's thighs. At the end of the thin blanket, only a pair of slender and beautiful feet as smooth as agate and delicate as jade were exposed.

Chu Xiao couldn't help but take a few more glances. He felt that the girl's pink toenails were smooth and translucent, and her toes were neat and delicate. He couldn't help but want to taste them carefully. He had to admit that his sister was very beautiful, but after the injection of the stabilizer, the overwhelming exquisiteness clearly had some inhuman beauty.

He quickly closed his eyes, not daring to look any longer. He just quietly hugged his sister's delicate and soft body, ready to fall asleep.

“By the way, brother, there is something I want to tell you.” Chu Yan suddenly spoke up, looking indifferent, and said softly, “I may not come to visit relatives in the future.”

Chu Xiao opened his eyes, and for a moment he didn't understand what his sister was saying: "Relatives? Which relatives? Do we have other relatives?"

"Oh? I'm talking about that relative. He may not come again in the future." Chu Yan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Chu Xiao realized that his sister was referring to the debuff that caused him to lose health every month. Chu Xiao almost cried out in surprise and panicked. He said something before he could even think: "How could this happen? Is she pregnant?"

"What are you thinking about!" Chu Yan's pretty face turned red, and she bit her brother's neck fiercely. She couldn't help but licked him secretly, almost arousing the desire to suck blood. "Some changes have occurred in my body..."

After Chu Yan was injected with the "stabilizer", she not only survived successfully, but also underwent some physical changes, such as her body possessing strange powers, red eyes and blood-sucking impulses, and blood that had a fatal attraction to zombie monsters...

...Everything is just like the vampire in the legend.

"Really? You scared me." Chu Xiao rubbed his sister's head. "What's there to worry about? Isn't this a good thing? This way, you don't have to worry about being chased by zombies once a month, right?"

An Suxin used to joke that during those days every month, she would treat Chu Yan’s sanitary napkins as top-level dangerous goods. But now, this danger has been solved directly at the source.

"But……"

"There's nothing to worry about. Go to bed. It's already late." Chu Xiao said as he patted Chu Yan's back gently, just like he did when they were little.

Seeing that her brother had closed his eyes again, Chu Yan did not continue to say anything, but just quietly hugged her brother's body, as if she wanted to rub herself into him...

——But I am worried that I am no longer alone...

(ps: Some readers have raised the question of Chu Yan's blood attracting zombies, so this chapter has been slightly patched... I feel like this kind of daily life, will it be suspected of watering down the word count...)

Chapter 26 Morning

At dawn, Chu Xiao opened his eyes - he was awakened by the sound of water in the bathroom.

In a daze, he felt the weight on his body. He turned his head slightly and saw the beautiful face that seemed as if it was not a human leaning in his arms.

The faint morning light fell on the girl's cheeks. At this moment, her fair skin seemed to be shining with a clear light. After a night, Chu Yan's pajamas looked very messy. The shoulder straps on both sides had slipped down to her shoulders, revealing her sexy and delicate collarbone and a large area of ​​skin that looked like solidified fat. Further down were the gradually rising peaks and... a big hand that had sunk into her collar. Chu Xiao's brain woke up from his drowsiness, and then he suddenly realized where his hand was, and quickly pulled his hand out from the collar of Chu Yan's pajamas.

Looking at his hand which still had some feeling left, Chu Xiao subconsciously put his fingers in front of his nose and sniffed, faintly smelling a hint of the girl's body fragrance.

A pair of big eyes stared over, and Yun Duoer appeared beside Chu Xiao at some point.

"What are you smelling?" the girl asked coquettishly.

Chu Xiao's face turned red, and he quickly put his hand down. These noises woke up the girl who was sleeping in Chu Xiao's arms. Chu Yan rubbed her eyes and propped herself up on her brother's chest. As she stood up, a beautiful scene naturally appeared under her messy pajamas.
