Zombie Apocalypse: Don't be afraid, I'm not a good person.

Jiang Manluo picked up a neatly folded cotton towel from the side and gently patted the water droplets off his feet. Hearing this, she looked up at him and smiled mischievously.

"What, afraid I'll run off with another man?"

Shenhe smiled and shook his head, not replying.

For him, the two had only just met and had no feelings for each other, so why would he really care about this?

When Jiang Manluo saw him shake his head, she also stopped smiling, her eyes becoming unusually serious.

Her fingertips still gently rested on his ankle, her tone resolute, "Don't worry, I, Jiang Manluo, have made up my mind about you for life, and I will never change my mind. And you don't need to worry about me being influenced by the queen ant; she only has one mate."

I know you don't have feelings for me right now, but that can be cultivated slowly. I believe time will tell.

Shenhe nodded noncommittally, then changed the subject, "Do you still have electricity here?"

He had just heard the refrigerator compressor humming; she had also taken the tomahawk steak from the refrigerator.

"Yes, I have!"

Jiang Manluo's eyes lit up, her tone full of pride, "It was specially bred for me by the queen ant, I call it the electric ant! One full meal can provide electricity for three days straight! How about it, why don't you just stay and live here? I promise I'll do whatever you want, hehehe..."

As she spoke, she picked up the basin of water and walked towards the bathroom, her wet skirt sweeping across the floor with a soft rustling sound.

Having not spoken to anyone for about half a month, she couldn't stop talking once she started, and even her melancholy aura dissipated.

She looked much more vibrant.

Shenhe sat on the sofa in silence. He was starting to believe that Jiang Manluo had indeed only sent the most ordinary ants to test him.

If there are electric ants, why aren't there electric man ants?

However, this place is suitable for taking refuge.

After a while, Jiang Manluo brought over several pairs of brand-new cotton socks and casual shoes, placed them beside his feet for him to choose from, and then turned around and went into the kitchen to get busy. She worked hard and needed to prepare in advance so that she could make it in time for the meal.

Shenhe got up and leaned against the kitchen doorway, watching her clumsily busy herself, then turned her gaze to the corner of the kitchen.

There was a basket with a plump ant inside, motionless, its two antennae stuck in the power strip, occasionally flashing a spark.

Looking up again, I saw Jiang Manluo pouring a 20-liter bucket of mineral water into a basin. The bucket was as light as a feather in her hands, and she didn't seem to be exerting any effort at all.

"How did you become so strong?"

Jiang Manluo continued pouring water, then turned around, a hint of confusion in her eyes. "I ate a fruit that glows, didn't I?"

Shenhe nodded. "Me too. How could you have dared to eat it? That fruit doesn't smell very good."

She put down the bucket, placed the side dishes into the basin, and washed them, her tone a mix of lingering fear and relief.

"The queen ant forced me to eat them, saying they were good for my health. I held my nose and ate a lot of them. I didn't expect that what smelled bad would taste so sweet. After eating them, my whole body felt warm and my strength gradually increased."

Did you eat quite a few?

Shenhe raised an eyebrow, thinking, "They really are rich and powerful."

He only got two!

"The queen ant is really good to you."

"Of course!"

Jiang Manlu smiled, her eyes crinkling. "It always thinks of me first when it finds something good. If you want to eat it, I'll have them go look for more, but we haven't found any nearby in a long time."

Shenhe hadn't seen the glowing fruit for a while. He had kept an eye out for it when he was leveling up by looking for zombies, but he hadn't seen it since the flower and bird market.

The two weren't familiar with each other, so they chatted casually, and the atmosphere wasn't particularly lively.

After Shenhe had several beautiful women, he was no longer as eager to be with new beauties as he had been when he first met Li Yuetong.

Soon, the two sat down at the dining table to eat. Jiang Manluo cut the steak into small pieces and placed them in front of him. Afraid that it wouldn't taste good, she also added some black pepper sauce to enhance the flavor.

After serving him, she sat back in her seat, rested her chin on her hands, and looked at him expectantly, waiting for praise.

Shenhe picked up a piece of steak, glanced at it, and saw that both sides were charred and there was still blood in the middle before putting it in his mouth.

Ah!

The taste was just as he had imagined: crispy on the outside, tender and raw on the inside, and a little bitter.

He nodded without changing his expression, said "Not bad," and then stuffed large mouthfuls into his mouth.

Jiang Manluo was so happy that her eyes narrowed into crescent moons.

Eat it, it won't kill you.

He didn't come here to enjoy the food.

……

At 1 p.m., Shenhe arrived at a leisure park not far from Jiang Manluo's home, following the directions given to him.

Looking around, the terrain was flat, suitable for him to use his forbidden techniques, making it a good place to grind monsters and level up.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

No sooner had he arrived than the soldier ants broke open several holes in the ground in the middle of the small square.

Then, countless worker ants crawled out and, in the blink of an eye, covered the entire park in a dark mass.

"Shenhe, I begged the queen ant for so long before she finally agreed to let you dispose of all these children. You... you can't lie to me about what you promised, okay?"

Jiang Manluo's voice rang in my ears, tinged with unease.

She couldn't stray too far from the queen ant; she had to stay underground, her heart pounding with anxiety.

They were always afraid that Shenhe would take the benefits and run away.

No wonder she was feeling uneasy!

After the meal, she kept thinking about the collaboration they had agreed on and wanted to finalize the specific projects.

By the way, let me introduce Shen Di and Jiang Mei so they can meet and get to know each other, so they can look out for each other in the future when they are trying to survive in the apocalypse.

Shenhe refused, saying he would deal with the ants first and they could talk about meeting later.

From a young age, her father always said that men should prioritize their careers. She was influenced by what she heard and felt that Shenhe was right, so she agreed with him and told him the location of the park.

Looking at the sea of ​​ants covering the square, Shenhe smiled happily. "I won't go back on my word. A man's word is his bond."

[Blizzard] Released! ...

[Experience Points +1]...

For two days in a row, Shenhe spent his days in this park leveling up by farming the mutant ants he had obtained for free.

He would go back to the orphanage that night to be with his Tongtong, ignoring all of Jiang Manluo's attempts to befriend him.

Doesn't Shenhe like a beautiful young lady who would serve him obediently?

Stop making Brother Shen laugh!

Who doesn't like a beautiful woman?

Shenhe just wanted to temper Jiang Manluo's temperament.

After two days of contact.

Or perhaps it's because Jiang Manluo used to live a life where she could get whatever she wanted.

Or perhaps she's simply possessive.

What started as simply wanting to get a child from Shenhe changed as the two spent more time together.

Jiang Manluo could no longer accept living alone underground, without anyone to talk to.

I've already tested Shenhe several times in the past two days.

She subtly inquired whether Shenhe could break up with other women and stay with her.

She said she was willing to treat him like royalty, to make him live like an emperor every day, and to grant him any outrageous requests, but she couldn't tolerate him having other women.

She even tempted him, saying she would make the queen ant reproduce continuously to help him level up, and would help him find mutated fruits all over the world, agreeing to any conditions.

But how could Shenhe possibly agree?

He abandoned Tongtong for a woman he just met? Duoduo? Enen? Ranran?

Is he stupid? Or crazy?

As his power grows, he becomes the one who demands things from others, not the other way around.

So these past two days, he's only occasionally returned to the anthill to show his face and let her see his increasingly powerful aura, without doing anything else.

Even though Jiang Manluo was emotional and acted inappropriately, he pretended not to see it and turned to go to the square to upgrade under her resentful gaze.

He's Shenhe, a sixth-level ability user. What kind of woman hasn't he seen?

But Jiang Manluo didn't dare to turn against him.

What she feared most was that if she stopped supplying the ants, Shenhe would simply pack up and leave, never to return.

It's likely that the photos he took might not even be of himself.
