Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus

After everything was sorted out, Li Yu returned to the room, took off his bomb disposal armor,

and felt some pain in the abrasion on his arm, but for Li Yu, this type of wound was as good as none.

A hot shower refreshed him completely.

.....

At night, on the villa’s rooftop, Li Yu was lying comfortably on the rocking chair, pondering the recent conversation with Yang Tianlong and the others.

Even though they hadn’t let Brother Hao and his people find out the location of the base,

the fact that the people Brother Hao had sent out hadn’t returned would surely arouse suspicion.

Therefore, they must resolve the threat posed by Brother Hao as soon as possible.

Today, everyone agreed not to delay; they would set out early the next morning to eliminate this future problem.

As Li Yu thought about this, he felt somewhat reassured,

observing the two distant mountain peaks and the vaguely discernible tall surrounding walls, feeling extremely contented.

A gentle evening breeze carried the soft chirping of insects.

Drowsiness was creeping over Li Yu, when suddenly, the sound of footsteps snapped him back to alertness.

Years of post-apocalyptic vigilance, even before his rebirth, kept Li Yu always on guard—any slight rustle would startle him awake.

Listening to the rhythm of the footsteps, he recognized them as familiar, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw his sister Li Yuan.

”Big brother, you’re not asleep yet?”

Li Yuan brought over a stool and sat beside Li Yu.

”Hmm, I’m just staying out here for a bit longer, I’ll go to sleep in a while. What about you, can’t sleep?” Li Yu said gently.

Li Yuan turned to look at Li Yu and suddenly seemed to notice the wound on his arm.

Because of the bomb disposal armor and the black clothing he wore today, no one had seen Li Yu’s wound.

”Brother, what happened to your arm?” Li Yuan stepped closer, then tried to lift Li Yu’s arm to take a closer look, but stopped mid-air, afraid of hurting him, not knowing what to do.

Li Yu said with a smile, ”It’s nothing, just a superficial wound I accidentally got during the day.”

Li Yuan’s eyes were filled with concern; seeing Li Yu’s nonchalant expression left her frustrated.

But with no alternative, she stomped her foot and ran downstairs.

Seeing Li Yuan heading downstairs, Li Yu smiled slightly, shook his head, and prepared to get up and go downstairs to sleep.

Before he could stand up, he heard the clatter of footsteps—Li Yuan was back.

In her hand, she held iodine and cotton swabs, her eyes slightly red.

Li Yu looked at her, a bit helpless, but also touched.

Li Yuan sat down on the stool, asking Li Yu to lift his arm, then carefully cleaned the wound.

Seeing that the wound had become white and swollen after being soaked in water,

she said, both angrily and with concern, ”Big brother, why did you let the wound get wet? What if it gets infected!”

Looking at Li Yuan, who had always been obedient and quiet since childhood, always following him around and calling him big brother,

she took the cotton swab, dabbed it with iodine, and gently wiped his wound. Seeing not only abrasions on his arm but also on his knuckles, she grew agitated, but her concern grew even more.

The iodine stung when it touched the wound, but Li Yu remained expressionless. This pain was nothing to him.

Before he was reborn, pain was sometimes even a good thing for him.

Because pain meant he was still alive.

Surviving in a post-apocalyptic world was never easy.

...

Li Yu tried to lean back slightly but immediately felt the pain of a bruise on his back from when he had rolled on the ground today.

The pain made him reflexively lean forward.

Seeing this, Li Yuan seemed to guess what was wrong.

She lifted Li Yu’s shirt with her right hand and saw a large bruise on his back.

Instantly, her eyes reddened again and again, but she was afraid tears might fall into Li Yu’s wound.

She tried her best to hold back, but the tears still accumulated in her eyes.

Li Yu saw her about to cry, and the warmth in his heart made him feel as if all the fatigue of the day had been lifted.

”Big brother, ever since I was little you’ve protected me, taking on everything yourself. But I’ve grown up now, and I want to help you!....”

Li Yuan was somewhat choked up.

Li Yu lifted his hand, touched her head, and said, ”Yeah, Li Yuanzi has grown up too. You’re our family doctor now.”

His smile was brimming with indulgence.

As Li Yuan was applying medicine to Li Yu’s wound, she said, ”I know that out there, it’s actually very dangerous for you all. The former Village Chief and others, and... anyway, it must be really dangerous outside.”

”Big brother, you must be careful in the future. We can’t be without you. I want to go out and help you too. But I’m afraid I might hold you back, I feel so useless.”

”I... am I really that useless... but I really want to help you. I practiced shooting guns seriously today, big brother, I...”

Li Yuan’s words seemed illogical, some were repetitive. It wasn’t very coherent, but her sincerity was undeniable.

Which all the more touched Li Yu. He lowered his hand and looked into the dark night far away, gazing at the distant Shan Feng.

Softly, he said, ”You are useful. See, aren’t you treating my wound now? You’re our family’s doctor. If I ever get seriously injured in the future, I’ll need your help. Haha...”

Before he could finish his words, Li Yuan stared at him puffily, ”Don’t talk nonsense, big brother. You won’t get hurt again. God bless!”

She saw that his hand had been treated with Iodine, and then she got up and ran downstairs, as if she remembered something, and said, ”Big brother, don’t go yet, I’ll get some medicine for bruises to apply on your back.”

Li Yu agreed with an ”alright.”

He shook his hand and saw the Iodine on his arm, feeling a bit amused but also moved.

Such minor cuts would go unnoticed by others, and he might also disregard them himself.

But,

your loving family will care a lot.

This is also the reason why Li Yu fights hard to protect this base.

Li Yuan came back up, lifted Li Yu’s shirt and started to apply the bruise medicine, massaging it to let it seep into the skin.

”Big brother, this will probably take a week to get better. When you sleep at night, don’t put pressure on it...”

As Li Yuan started to endlessly talk about precautions and repeat caring words.

The smile at the corner of Li Yu’s mouth never ceased.

....

An uneventful night.

Early the next morning, Li Yu went to Li Zhengping’s room and pulled him up.

Li Zhengping squinted his sleepy eyes, probably still drowsy, staring blankly at Li Yu.

”Big brother, what’s it?”

”Killing!”

His tone was crisp and full of murderous intent.

Hearing Li Yu’s words, Li Zhengping immediately opened his drowsy eyes wide.

Li Yu didn’t waste words. When it comes to educating boys, it needs to be direct and rough.

Hemming and hawing, murmuring and musing, looking back and forth, hesitating, is not the spirit of a man.

Li Yu threw off the blanket and said, ”Hurry up.”

Li Zhengping, upon hearing this, quickly got out of bed.

Maybe because he had just woken up, he was still a bit slow.

Li Yu looked at the time on his watch.

Li Yu slapped him across the face, ”Didn’t I tell you yesterday? What time.”

Li Zhengping felt indignant from the slap,

but he also felt it was his own fault, feeling annoyed at himself for not getting up earlier.

So, he stayed silent, quickly dressed up, and followed behind Li Yu.
