Being scrutinized so brazenly by Meng De, Da Mi Mi felt somewhat uneasy.
"What... what kind of price?"
Da Mi Mi had a vague premonition and instinctively tightened her grip on the fruit knife in her hand.
She seemed to know what the man in front of her was planning.
Seeing this, Meng De didn't continue.
As a loyal fan of Da Mi Mi, he knew that she had never accepted any form of under-the-table deals throughout her career.
Forcing her to comply right away wasn't realistic.
Even if he was eager to "eat the meat," he had to take it slow, like boiling a frog in warm water.
He had to give her a glimmer of hope to survive first!
In just a few breaths, he had already formulated a perfect strategy to win over the goddess in his mind.
"Before that, you need to tell me about your situation here."
Seeing that Meng De wasn't forcing her, Da Mi Mi secretly breathed a sigh of relief and explained her situation in detail.
Ten minutes later, after listening to Da Mi Mi's account, Meng De couldn't help but sigh.
It was truly a case of perfect timing. If he had arrived a few days later, this goddess, Da Mi Mi, would have met her tragic end.
"Don't worry, that Flame Zombie has already been killed by me!"
Hearing Meng De's words, Da Mi Mi's tense nerves finally relaxed.
Her ample bosom heaved dramatically.
Meng De: Sing, dance, rap.
Upon learning of the Flame Zombie's demise, Da Mi Mi was overjoyed.
For a moment, she didn't even notice Meng De's inappropriate behavior.
"So... why are you here?"
Before Da Mi Mi could finish, Meng De directly replied.
"To search for supplies!"
Da Mi Mi: ???
After answering, Meng De didn't wait for her response and immediately entered the underground supermarket.
What followed was a moment to show off... no, to witness a miracle!
This underground supermarket, where Da Mi Mi had lived for a while, still had most of its supplies intact.
Thanks to the generator, even the meat in the freezer was still fresh.
He walked up to a snack shelf and suddenly stopped.
Da Mi Mi, following behind, was a bit puzzled. Are you searching for supplies without even bringing a backpack?
Not noticing that Meng De had stopped in front of her, she bumped right into him.
I bounce, I bounce, I bounce away the crow's feet.
In that brief moment of contact, Meng De was certain that Da Mi Mi's impressive bosom had definitely been squished out of shape.
Da Mi Mi's face turned slightly red.
Although she had been in close contact with male actors during filming before, this was the first time she had actively let someone "accidentally grope" her.
[Ding! Congratulations, host! Goddess Yang Mi's favorability towards you has increased by 5. Current favorability: 10!]
Meng De touched his nose. Da Mi Mi, you really can't blame me for this!
The two of them tacitly skipped over the incident.
Then, under Da Mi Mi's puzzled gaze, Meng De waved his hand, and the entire shelf, along with its contents, disappeared.
Even with all her experience, Da Mi Mi was stunned, her lips parting wide enough to fit a cucumber.
Meng De didn't speak, just smiled slightly.
The fish had taken the bait!
Without a word, he walked to the second shelf, waved his hand again, and stored the entire shelf.
After a series of similar actions, half of the large supermarket had been emptied.
Da Mi Mi finally couldn't hold back her curiosity, her eyes filled with amazement, even more shocked than before!
Two cucumbers wouldn't be a problem!
"How did you manage to do that?"
Meng De was thoroughly enjoying the feeling of showing off.
If life wasn't about showing off, then what was the point?
Especially in front of his former goddess.
This feeling of showing off was even more exhilarating!
"Oh, you mean this? It's a superpower I awakened."
"It has the effect of storing things!"
"You can think of it as a superpower!"
The more nonchalantly Meng De spoke, the more extraordinary Da Mi Mi found it, and she couldn't help but blurt out:
"Can I do it too?"
Her thoughts were simple: if she had that kind of power, she wouldn't have to be afraid of the zombies outside.
Nor would she have to hide in this tiny underground supermarket.
"You?"
Meng De stopped collecting supplies, turned around, and looked Da Mi Mi up and down with a half-smile.
"You can!"
"But I'm afraid you might not be willing, because helping someone comes with a price!"
"What price?"
Seeing how serious Da Mi Mi was, Meng De didn't waste any time. He suddenly stepped forward and pulled her into his arms.
Her waist was so slender.
Da Mi Mi's alluring scent hit him, utterly captivating!
And with this sudden collision, he could feel his own excitement.
Da Mi Mi was completely stunned by this sudden move.
"Be my woman, that's the price!"
It wasn't until Meng De's words lingered in her ear that she snapped out of her daze!
"You!"
Da Mi Mi felt violated, a hint of shyness flashing across her face!
She struggled desperately, and Meng De let her go.
"It seems you're not willing!"
With that, Meng De turned and walked away.
He appeared to leave decisively, but in reality, his eyes were fixed on the system panel, monitoring Da Mi Mi's favorability towards him.
Seeing that it hadn't dropped, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
As he walked, he continued collecting, clearing out all the supplies in his path.
Until he reached a corner and stopped again.
Because ahead, two small pieces of fabric were fluttering in the wind.
On the ground, there was a basin, shimmering under the overhead light.
Da Mi Mi's face turned completely red when she saw this.
Oh no!
How could she have forgotten about the ones she just changed out of?
Just as she was about to step forward, she saw Meng De turn and walk away.
She immediately let out a huge sigh of relief.
[Ding! Congratulations, host, goddess Yang Mi's favorability towards you has increased by 5, current favorability: 15!]
Meng De smiled.
Who would have thought Da Mi Mi liked wearing black lace trim?
As Meng De finished his round, the entire underground supermarket was emptied into his personal space.
Only then did Da Mi Mi realize a serious problem!
"You took everything, what about me?"
This man really cleaned up thoroughly!
The entire underground supermarket was as if it had been licked clean!
He didn't leave a single thing for her!
"Oh, I almost forgot about you, Sister Mi!"
"How about I leave you a few loaves of bread?"
Meng De pretended to have just remembered.
But there was no way he was going to take anything out now that he had stored it all.
Da Mi Mi understood this too.
But there was nothing she could do.
It seemed like she had let a wolf into her house!
Only then did Meng De reveal a wolfish grin.
"Ahem... Sister Mi, you see!"
"The stuff has already been stored, and I can't take much out for you."
"Besides, it's not safe for you to carry it alone."
"And as a woman, your own safety in this apocalypse can't be guaranteed, right?"
"How about coming back with me first? I, Meng De, can absolutely ensure your safety."
"Don't worry! I promise I won't do anything to you."
Although she knew this man was desperately trying to manipulate her, she also clearly understood that she couldn't refute what Meng De was saying.
Continuing to wait here for rescue was impossible!
Moreover, it had been so long, and no rescue had come. Whether it would ever come was another matter entirely.
Most crucially, her phone had no signal!
There was no way to call for help!
But the thought of facing those terrifying zombies alone was something she simply couldn't handle.
Da Mi Mi pondered over and over, but apart from the solution proposed by the man before her, she couldn't think of any other way.
However, once she followed him back, she would probably...
Just as Da Mi Mi was struggling with her thoughts, Meng De continued to admire the goddess's graceful figure with a smile on his face.
He showed no urgency at all, as if he had everything under control!
In fact, he even felt a bit of regret.
If only a villain NPC would appear now, then he could...
No sooner had this thought crossed his mind than a voice rang out.
"Yang Mi! I've finally found you!"
"Come back with me and be my woman! Hahaha!"
Meng De turned to see a... well, not a head, but a man weighing at least 200 pounds in a suit, running excitedly towards them.
His eyes were filled with desire for Yang Mi.
Behind him followed a group of henchmen armed with knives and clubs.
Seeing this, Da Mi Mi's face immediately turned grim.
Staying up late to finish writing, sigh, deleting and rewriting is really painful.
I still have to work tomorrow, sigh, my dear readers, please give me a follow-up read!
Your humble servant kneels in gratitude!!!!!!!
