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

As soon as the water touched her lips, Lin Zhien instinctively swallowed in small sips, her movements slow and weak, almost entirely supported by her survival instinct.

After a few sips, his strength was quickly exhausted, his little head slumped to one side, and his breathing remained weak.

Every few minutes, Shenhe would feed her a few sips of warm water. After several rounds, her condition improved significantly, and she was no longer in a state of near death. Seeing that she was doing well, Shenhe stopped giving her water and gently helped her lie down again.

Then he got into bed and lay down beside her, facing her, with one arm naturally wrapped around her.

He lightly placed his palm on her chest, then gently cupped her hands below, immobilizing her.

"I'm going to sleep for a while. Call me if you feel unwell."

After he finished speaking, he closed his eyes, seemingly falling asleep, but in reality he was just resting his mind, his senses still on edge.

Lin Zhien smelled different from Li Yuetong; she had a slightly musty, lingering odor.

It has a slightly fishy smell.

Unlike Li Yuetong, who is fragrant and soft.

She's smelly and soft.

After all, he had been locked in the storage room for three days without moving.

But compared to the stench and pungent smell of zombies, this smell is relatively clean.

After smelling it a couple more times, Shenhe gradually got used to it.

Some people want to smell it, but they can't.

As for why he saved her? It was just a coincidence, and he did it on a whim. The main reason was simply that she was beautiful enough. If it were anyone else, he would at most take pity on them and throw them a piece of bread, but he wouldn't have bothered with it.

Lin Zhien tilted her head, her cool eyes quietly fixed on his face.

She showed no outward signs of emotion when he held her like that, and remained calm even when his large hands occasionally wandered.

Of course, this is only on the surface.

Secretly, her heart was already pounding wildly.

Only after she had etched his image firmly into her heart did she slowly turn her head, close her eyes, and rest deeply.

An hour later.

In her daze, Lin Zhien vaguely sensed Shenhe quietly getting out of bed. She struggled to open her eyes, her brows furrowing slightly for the first time. But before she could even sit up, his figure had already turned and disappeared out the door.

he's gone?

Where should I look for him?

Just as two thoughts began to race through her mind, hunger and exhaustion swept over her again, draining all her strength. She hadn't had a drop of water or a grain of rice for two and a half days, and hunger had completely emptied her of her energy.

In her dazed state, someone called her softly again.

Is she my younger sister?

No, it's him.

Lin Zhien slowly opened her eyes.

"Get up and eat some steamed egg custard. You'll have energy after that."

Lin Zhien stared blankly at the man in front of her.

He held a white porcelain bowl in his hand, from which steam rose and the aroma of eggs and scallions filled the air.

Did he wait until I finished drinking the water and confirmed that there was nothing wrong before he immediately went to make something to eat?

My heart softened, and my nose tingled slightly.

I'm so lucky... I met such a kind person when I was about to starve to death.

[Lim Ji-eun's favorability +10]

Current favorability rating: 90

Before her sluggish thoughts could even process what was happening, she was gently helped up and placed in Shenhe's arms.

The man's embrace was warm and firm, and leaning against it felt incredibly reassuring. However, the touch was rather hard, clearly due to his taut muscles. No wonder he was able to single-handedly kill so many zombies and rescue her from that desperate situation.

With the enticing aroma of eggs lingering around her nose, Lin Zhien couldn't help but secretly swallow.

A spoonful of warm, smooth steamed egg custard was brought to her lips. Before she could take a closer look, her mouth opened instinctively, and she gently took the custard into her mouth.

Soft, warm, fresh, and smooth...

When you're starving, being able to eat a hot meal is probably the most luxurious happiness in the apocalypse.

She ate in small bites, her gaze fixed on Shenhe's face. The man was expressionless, but he carefully blew on each spoonful of egg custard to warm it before slowly bringing it to her lips, watching her eat it without the slightest impatience.

After feeding him most of the bowl, he suddenly picked up the bowl and ate the rest of it all in one go.

Lin Zhien's cheeks flushed slightly.

That...that's what she ate...

She even used her lips and teeth to stroke the spoon...

"You've been starving for so long, your stomach must be atrophied. Eat a little, go to sleep now, and eat again tomorrow."

Lin Zhien was a doctor, so she naturally knew this basic knowledge. However, she did not expect that this seemingly strong and cold man would be so meticulous and know how to take care of his body.

Little did she know that Shenhe had followed the system prompts exactly the whole time.

The system said that to win a woman's heart, you must be considerate and attentive to details in the early stages.

Moreover, he discovered that Lin Zhien's favorability rating was rising exceptionally fast; if he treated her even slightly well, the rating would jump up rapidly. She was a woman who knew how to be grateful.

Then be nicer to her.

For him, this couldn't be more worthwhile.

You should know that a woman with a 100% favorability rating is like a capable pet!

They have colorful blind boxes!

Shenhe put down the bowl and looked at the corner of her mouth, where there was still a little bit of egg custard that she hadn't licked clean.

If it were Li Yuetong, given her carefree personality, Shenhe would simply kiss her clean with his mouth, guaranteeing that the atmosphere would instantly become passionate.

But Lim Ji-eun is clearly not that kind of style.

He reached into his pocket, but without making a sound, he pulled out a pack of tissues from his pocket, took one out, and wiped it on her lips. Then he pulled the two sides together and pressed it down.

Lin Zhien immediately closed her eyes, looking a little embarrassed.

This person... is like someone wiping your butt.

After eating, Lin Zhien's complexion improved significantly. Her favorability rating had reached 90, so she definitely wouldn't harm him easily. Shenhe lay down beside her with peace of mind, preparing to fall asleep. Before going to sleep, he instructed the system to keep watch for him.

Shenhe has just completed its upgrade, and its energy is abundant, making it feel warm all over like a heater.

Lin Zhien felt a chill in her body and was in dire need of warmth, so she unconsciously moved closer to him.

Feeling that soft body press against him, Shenhe reached out and pulled her tightly into his arms. Since she had offered herself up, he naturally wouldn't be polite.

It's really comfortable to sleep with a woman in your arms; she's soft and fluffy like a giant pillow. The only downside is that Lin Zhien has a faint odor.

If Lin Zhien knew that he was secretly thinking that she was a bit smelly, her usually calm and composed face would probably break down on the spot.

In the darkness, Lin Zhien opened her eyes wide and gazed at the man beside her who was giving her warmth. Beside him, even the terrifying roars of the zombies outside no longer terrified her.

After eating hot food, her stomach felt warm, and the stomach cramps gradually subsided, making her feel much more comfortable.

She owed this man far too much.

How can I repay you?

She asked herself this question softly, then closed her eyes, completely relaxed, and fell into a deep sleep.

5:00 AM on August 6, 2027.

The third day of the apocalypse.

Shenhe opened his eyes and saw Lin Zhien's weak figure tiptoeing towards the door.

He didn't make a sound, assuming she was getting up in the middle of the night. Seeing that it was still early, he closed his eyes again and went back to sleep.

Lin Zhien did go to the toilet. She hadn't eaten or drunk anything for three whole days, and she had barely felt the urge to urinate before. But last night, after drinking water and eating warm steamed egg custard, her bodily functions gradually recovered, and the urge to urinate began to rise.

After sleeping soundly for a few hours, she finally regained some strength. She didn't like to trouble others, especially with such a private matter, so she didn't want to wake Shenhe and quietly got up and went out.

After coming out, she wandered around the room for a while before finally finding the bathroom.

She was completely unfamiliar with this place.

On the day the apocalypse broke out, she was called to the daycare by her best friend, who was a kindergarten teacher, to help examine the children who were coughing. However, halfway through the examination, the children suddenly went out of control and started tearing and gnawing at each other.

That day, her best friend happened to take a child with severe symptoms to the hospital, leaving her alone here. She didn't have time to escape and in a panic hid in the storage room.

The sound of running water came from the bathroom, and the familiar, long-lost smell made Lin Zhi'en's cheeks flush slightly as her senses gradually returned.

She belatedly realized that she still had a musty smell on her body, and despite being in such a disheveled state, she had been held by that man and slept there all night.

Doesn't he find it smelly?

A hint of embarrassment finally crept onto his usually calm and composed face.

The city's backup power was still running, and there was still hot water in the restroom. Lin Zhi'en slowly took off her clothes and leisurely cleaned herself.

Hot water trickled down her neck and collarbone from her hair, sliding down her shapely body to the ground. Her alluring figure was reflected in the steamy mirror.

She stood there, arms crossed, staring blankly, murmuring softly, "You guys are so beautiful...he'll like it, won't he..."
