My apocalyptic heroine has come true

But it's just...

Fang Ming placed his thumb on the camera button in the lower left corner of the game interface.

After hesitating for a while, I always felt something was wrong.

You know what, it really feels like I’m video chatting with netizens.

It's quite embarrassing.

Fang Ming reached into the cabinet next to the bed, picked up a mask and put it on.

This white mask was distributed uniformly by the hospital. When Fang Ming was in very poor condition, he needed to wear a mask every day to avoid infection with infectious diseases.

"cough……"

After clearing his throat, Fang Ming finally pressed the camera button.

Similar to the layout of modern video calls, the small window in the upper right corner of the phone shows the other party's picture, the lower right corner is the switch between the front and rear cameras, and the red button in the middle is for hanging up the call.

However, Fang Ming's video does not require the other party to manually connect.

Just press the communication button and the other party's monitor will be automatically connected.

It is worth mentioning that when the 'basic communicator' was upgraded to a 'communication display', the sub-device on Xia Xiaochi's wrist was also upgraded.

At this time, Xia Xiaochi had not yet noticed that her watch had an extra small screen.

"Xia Xiaochi, look back?" Fang Ming said slowly.

Xia Xiaochi was still making her bed. After hearing Fang Ming's order, she subconsciously turned around.

I saw that the communicator placed under the dispersal lamp had an extra screen at some point.

On the screen, there were white walls, a plastic headboard, and...a young man's face.

“Whaaaaaa?!!!”

This time Xia Xiaochi was really shocked.

She took a step back, her foot landed on a can, and she almost fell down with a thud.

Xia Xiaochi leaned against the wall, her round almond-shaped eyes wide open, and the white image from the communication monitor was reflected on her pretty face.

Fang Ming: "..."

"Do I look so exaggerated?"

Fang Ming, who had been praised by his sisters, aunts and grandmas since he was a child, felt a little insecure about his appearance at this moment.

Because of his short hair that had not been taken care of for a long time and hung down on his shoulders, his tall nose cast a shadow on the white mask under the light. Fang Ming's eyes were as dark as a pool, and his pupils reflected Xia Xiaochi's surprised expression on the phone screen.

Because he was wearing a mask, Xia Xiaochi couldn't see Fang Ming's face.

But just from his soft and handsome eyes, one could tell that he was probably in his early twenties.

The moment she saw Fang Ming, all her fantasies about him became concrete in Xia Xiaochi's eyes.

It turns out... this is what her brother Fang Ming looks like.

Even more handsome than she imagined...

Xia Xiaochi's face flushed red as she spoke in a very low voice.

"have a look……"

"Where do you want to see?" Fang Ming was stunned.

"Take off the mask and let us see..." Xia Xiaochi pleaded in a low voice.

Fang Ming: "..."

"Let's take a look..." Xia Xiaochi said again.

Seeing Fang Ming still didn't respond, she softened her voice again, a faint nasal tone mixed with a hint of coquettishness:

"Look, Brother Fang Ming..."

Fang Ming sighed.

Helplessly, he raised his fingers and hooked the mask rope on his face.

As the rope dropped, the handsome face with sharp edges was revealed.

His face was noticeably broad due to his thinness, he had hard lines, a cold white complexion, and a pair of thin lips that tasted like mint.

Xia Xiaochi slowly opened his eyes.

The two looked at each other, then looked away tacitly.

Xia Xiaochi lowered her head to tidy up her bed, while Fang Ming picked up the cup of water on the table and took a sip.

If a nurse were to measure his heartbeat at this moment, she would definitely find that the patient's heart rate was somewhat abnormal.

Fang Ming glanced at the little heroine's status bar.

Hmm...heart rate 105

Fang Ming was nervous because it was his first time showing his face. What was the little heroine nervous about?

Why is it that seeing herself scares her more than seeing the mutant species outside?

"Brother Fang Ming, is this... on the hospital bed?"

Xia Xiaochi calmed down his nervous mood and turned his head again.

The background behind Fang Ming was similar to the previous isolation room in Shelter 0331. That kind of place was also called a ward by the scavengers, but the environment and conditions were much worse.

"Yes, I'm in the hospital." Fang Ming nodded.

After saying that, he seemed to remember something and took out a box of fruit at hand.

It is an attractive red fruit the size of an egg, covered with sesame-sized dots.

"What is this?" Xia Xiaochi came over curiously.

"Just like I told you last time, Strawberry."

"strawberry!"

Xia Xiaochi's bright eyes flashed.

Although fruits are also grown in the doomsday world, plants like strawberries, which have very high requirements for the growing environment and low yields, are impossible to appear.

"See those little yellow sesame seeds on top? They're the seeds."

Fang Ming hung his phone on the stand and casually fiddled with the strawberry in his hand.

“Its seeds actually grow outside!”

Xia Xiaochi said curiously, "If we put it in our Ark Shelter, it can grow into a large field of grass..."

Just as Xia Xiaochi was describing the scene with great anticipation, Fang Ming swallowed the strawberry in one gulp.

Xia Xiaochi was stunned.

"Hmm, sweet." Fang Ming smacked his lips.

Xia Xiaochi looked at the micro-expressions on his face and became very interested in the bright red fruit.

She swallowed subconsciously.

Brother Fang Ming...

Such a bad guy!

Xia Xiaochi stuffed a candy into his mouth.

"I'll send you some photos later. It's spring here, and there should be a lot of things you haven't seen." Fang Ming ate fruit in front of the camera for no apparent reason, and he continued.

"By the way, do you want to eat anything?"

Xia Xiaochi held the candy in his mouth without saying anything.

In her mind, the things she wanted to eat had already filled her warehouse.

She had no idea what other food existed in this world.

"Whatever you want to eat, I'll eat it for you to see." Fang Ming added.

"..."

Xia Xiaochi swallowed again.

It could be heard that Fang Ming was deliberately teasing her.

It turns out that he has bad intentions!

Xia Xiaochi ate candy and stared at Fang Ming's half-smile, a sinister expression.

After a moment, Xia Xiaochi felt relieved.

"Brother Fang Ming, I feel I must apologize for my previous prejudice."

Xia Xiaochi's eyes moved slightly, and he suddenly spoke seriously.

"Hmm?" Fang Ming looked down at her.

"I thought you were surrounded by countless young women, living a life of luxury, wealth and extravagance..."

"Is this the image of me in your mind?"

When Fang Ming heard this, he was stunned for a moment. He switched the lens to the rear camera and took a picture of his legs.

"Didn't I tell you I'm a disabled person?"

"I know... but you're so mysterious. Every time you make a move, you surprise me. So I always thought you lived in a world of song and dance. But now it seems that these were all my prejudices against you."

Xia Xiaochi looked at Fang Ming's slightly surprised face.

The room behind him was filled with medical equipment, and the bedside was piled with flowers and fruits, but overall it still looked a bit empty.

Clean windows, cold moonlight, and that brand new wheelchair.

He must be lonely...

Xia Xiaochi thought so deeply.

"So, I'm sorry for assuming you were that kind of person..."
