There is no other place in the world that can make people feel more at ease than their own homes. And the so-called home is a place where people live with their most important loved ones, and it has the feeling of home that everyone recognizes.
Therefore, even though Wei Xuan had only left his own community for a short two or three days, he felt particularly at ease and comfortable when he returned.
“After coming back this time, I finally don’t have to rush out immediately in a short period of time.” Wei Xuan threw his backpack away and stretched lazily as soon as he entered the door and pounced onto the bed.
To his surprise, Du Hang, who had been obediently following him, also didn’t hesitate to pounce on him as soon as he saw him fall onto the bed…
With a loud bang, Wei Xuan, who usually tried to keep quiet in the house, let out a scream, which caused the wandering zombie guards downstairs to pause for a moment before continuing to wander around. They could immediately distinguish any sound caused by a living person and pursue them tirelessly in all directions. But fortunately, in their eyes, Wei Xuan was not human, so the noise he made would not cause the zombies to stir…
Wei Xuan, who was not human, really almost passed out this time. Du Hang, the zombie, hit him like a supportless door panel, and it just hit him straight without any deviation!
Struggling to push Du Hang away, Wei Xuan held his lower back and rubbed the back of his head, and gasped for air for a long time before finally recovering.
“Are you trying to kill me? Even if I die, you need to infect me with the zombie virus first! If you kill me like this, I won’t be able to turn into a zombie to accompany you. What will you do then?!”
Du Hang, who was pushed away by Wei Xuan, looked at him innocently and blankly.
Seeing his expression, Wei Xuan couldn’t help rolling his eyes and retaliated by hitting himself on Du Hang’s body. Then he screamed again: “What the hell is this thing that’s so hard?! “
He quickly fumbled around Du Hang’s waist, and finally found the culprit that was tied to the rope that was used to secure the two of them together – a metal buckle.
Moving the metal buckle to Du Hang’s side, Wei Xuan hit it again, and then he felt like Du Hang’s whole body was made of hard bones. He felt like he had brought this upon himself by hitting him so hard.

“I remember they said there was a convenient rice storage room and a bunch of warehouses….”
Wei Xuan had no shortage of canned goods. He had already collected a lot from nearby shops and residents. He also had plenty of supplementary food and seasoning. However, he wouldn’t mind taking some more canned fruit to stock up at home. After all, he had never seen fruit in the apocalypse, and who knew if he could grow them again in the future?
Therefore, this exceptionally valuable, delicious, and vitamin-supplementing good stuff was worth his extra effort.
As for getting the convenient rice, although Wei Xuan had recently acquired a lot of recipes and had many ingredients to try cooking, the food he could find was limited! Besides, the shelf life of convenient rice was a concern. If he wanted to eat some, he needed to go as soon as possible; otherwise, he might not be able to eat it again in the future…
“Ah, why do I have to go out again? And if I do, I have to make two trips!!”
The old train station and warehouse street were in two different directions. Wei Xuan couldn’t walk through both places in a single day. Moreover, if he needed to bring back more things, he couldn’t make both trips at once. This was a difficult decision.
Should he stay at home and relax, or should he go out to improve his food? Wei Xuan, of course, chose the latter, especially since it was the “thank you” from those two guys who had caused him a lot of trouble. He couldn’t let himself not take what he deserved.
So Wei Xuan grabbed Du Hang by the collar and shook him hard: “Why doesn’t my plan ever go as scheduled?!”
Du Hang’s head was shaken back and forth by the movement, and neither he nor the zombie paid attention to how close they were to each other. As a result, when Du Hang’s head was once again shaken by Wei Xuan, it hit his mouth, and their lips touched.
Wei Xuan was stunned for a moment, then twisted his face in pain and immediately raised his hand to cover his teeth and lips. Although he and Du Hang had their mouths closed at the time, teeth were still under the flesh, so his inner lips were cut by his own teeth!
This made Wei Xuan almost feel like he had almost knocked out his front teeth, but he knew it was his own fault. Although what just happened could be considered a violent attack, it still gave him a feeling of his heart pounding. It was completely different from the occasional touches and kisses he shared with Du Hang.
Of course, Du Hang had also kissed Wei Xuan, but his so-called “kisses” were almost always like this…
Du Hang seemed to have completely misunderstood what had just happened. He only saw Wei Xuan suddenly covering his own mouth and thought the scene was familiar, so he also raised his hand and covered Wei Xuan’s hand with his own, just like how Wei Xuan covered his mouth every time they encountered a living person.
It was rare for Du Hang and Wei Xuan to develop a hint of ambiguity between them. It was difficult to cultivate such feelings with a zombie who showed no signs of emotion, especially when Wei Xuan upheld his integrity and refused to intentionally explore certain unhealthy ideas or take advantage of others.
So when Du Hang covered Wei Xuan’s mouth like this, Wei Xuan could only roll his eyes and pull his arm away, then go to the bathroom to check his health in the mirror.
The skin was broken, and there was quite a bit of bleeding. But as long as he didn’t eat anything strange (like what Du Hang ate), Wei Xuan could still ensure that he wouldn’t become a zombie just because of this injury in his mouth.
“Rest for two days before going out again.”
Wei Xuan muttered indistinctly. He ignored Du Hang, who was following him obediently like a tail, and walked to the seeds that had been soaking in the living room for a long time and were already swollen but not sprouting.
“Is it the problem with the seeds themselves or the method used? Or is it the problem with the current external conditions?”
Wei Xuan furrowed his brows, rested his chin on his hand, and once again fell into deep thought.
If it was the problem with the seeds themselves, or if the external conditions had truly become unsuitable for the growth of these ordinary plants, then no matter how many seeds he soaked, or how he adjusted the temperature and humidity, it would all be in vain.
But if it wasn’t these problems, then what factors could affect the germination of these things?
Lost in thought, Wei Xuan still couldn’t find an answer. It wasn’t until his biological clock reminded him that it was time to sleep that he reluctantly went to bed with Du Hang.
Lying in bed, he pulled his thoughts away from those seeds. In front of him was Du Hang, lying obediently with a pillow under his arm.
It was daytime outside, and some light could still seep in through the curtains that had been drawn closed. Looking at Du Hang’s eyes in that dim light, Wei Xuan suddenly felt as if they were staring at each other.
It was a stare, not a gaze into the lifeless eyes of a zombie. It was like the feeling of accidentally locking eyes with a stranger on the street before the apocalypse.
Calm and ordinary, without any emotions, but they were truly the eyes of a person with a human soul.
Wei Xuan felt his blood freeze in an instant. He sat up abruptly, panicked, and crawled to the side of the bed to pull open the curtains. When he turned back around, however, he saw that Du Hang’s eyes were just the same as usual, peaceful, and no different from any other time.
“Did I see wrong?” Wei Xuan felt a wave of disappointment, quickly climbed back onto the bed, and lay in the same position as before, looking at Du Hang’s face from the same angle. But he was disappointed again, for now, Du Hang’s eyes were just as vacant and lifeless as before, with no resemblance to the feeling he had just experienced.
With a deep sigh, Wei Xuan leaned his head against Du Hang’s chest, where there was no heartbeat.
Maybe it was because of the lighting, but it didn’t matter… one day, Du Hang would be able to look at himself with that kind of gaze that was exclusive to humans.
Even though he wasn’t entirely certain about it in his heart, Wei Xuan still encouraged himself silently. After feeling a bit disappointed, he raised his head and gently kissed Du Hang’s cheek with a smile.
Just as Wei Xuan was about to get up to close the curtains, Du Hang, who had just been kissed, felt the touch on his face. He immediately grabbed Wei Xuan, who was about to get up, and pressed his lips against Wei Xuan’s cheek.
There was no pounding impact like usual, nor was it the touch of a real kiss. However, the meaning behind this action made Wei Xuan, who was still lingering in a faint disappointment, smile again. He didn’t struggle to get up anymore, but simply hugged Du Hang’s head, closed his eyes, and fell into a dream.
