In the dimly lit bedroom.
Fu Chen pulled Bai Qing Qing into the bedroom and sat her down on a stool, staring at her with an inscrutable expression.
Bai Qing Qing knew that in this world, whenever two men fought over a woman, many onlookers would instinctively assume it was the woman’s fault.
Although she had intentionally instigated the conflict between Shen Mingxuan and Xiao Yang, she didn’t want Fu Chen to blame her for it.
Seeing what had happened today, Fu Chen recalled how they had fought tooth and nail for Bai Tian Tian in his past life, ultimately shattering their team and dying a gruesome death over a woman.
Shen Mingxuan probably still held a prejudice against Bai Qing Qing because of her past relationships with several men, believing her to be promiscuous and malicious.
Xiao Yang, who liked Bai Qing Qing, would naturally protect her; he and Shen Mingxuan were bound to fight sooner or later.
Fu Chen looked at his ‘little sister,’ his feelings slightly complicated. Seeing her head bowed, obediently awaiting her punishment, the displeasure in his eyes vanished.
He half-squatted down in front of her, taking her delicate hand in his, his long, slender fingers touching her swollen wrist.
“Ouch~ Brother, it hurts,” Bai Qing Qing said pitifully, tears streaming down her delicate, fair face. She looked utterly innocent and pitiful.
“Didn’t I tell you to apply the medicine?” Fu Chen said coldly.
Bai Qing Qing, of course, deliberately didn’t apply the medicine, waiting to show Fu Chen how hard Shen Mingxuan had hit her. She deliberately used a soft, coquettish tone, saying, “Brother, please apply the medicine for me.”
Fu Chen took the ointment and skillfully applied it to her wrist, his movements very gentle.
Bai Qing Qing’s skin was as delicate as she was; even the slightest scratch looked terrible. He had to protect her carefully to prevent further injury.
As Fu Chen applied the medicine to her, he said, “Come out with me later.”
“Where to?” Bai Qing Qing’s eyes flickered, sparkling as she stared at him. “Are we going to stockpile supplies?”
Since her spatial ability had reached level three, the space inside her body was ten times larger than before, allowing her to stockpile far more supplies.
The things Jiang Cheng had stockpiled were far from enough to satisfy her hunger. She also wanted to stockpile various military supplies and outdoor materials. She could even consider putting any nice buildings she saw inside. If her body could enter the space in the future, she could live and vacation there!
After Fu Chen finished applying the medicine, he led her out of the suite.
Out of the hotel, Fu Chen drove her around Flower City in his SUV.
Before the apocalypse, Flower City’s streets were filled with blooming flowers, and the beautiful scenery along the way was breathtaking. Now, however, it was desolate, with wrecked vehicles and paper garbage bags everywhere.
Some roadside corpses could still be seen rotting, with flies buzzing around them, feeding on them.
Whenever a zombie appeared, it was immediately run over by the car. Bai Qing Qing could tell that Fu Chen wasn’t in a good mood.
Watching the zombies foolishly chasing after the car, Bai Qing Qing propped her head up and thought, “The apocalypse has rendered the city unable to function properly. If only I could control not only plants and animals, but also zombies!”
She wanted the zombies to help her clear land, cultivate crops, cut down trees, fish, and pick fruit… How convenient!
The strawberries in her space were almost all ripe. She had spent two hours picking them all, and they wouldn’t be finished. If they expired, they would go to waste, which was a worry.
Fu Chen glanced at the distressed Bai Qing Qing and asked, “What are you thinking about?”
“Thinking about zombies,” Bai Qing Qing blurted out.
Fu Chen glanced at the relentlessly pursuing zombies in the rearview mirror and said, “I can handle these low-level zombies easily, don’t be afraid.”
Bai Qing Qing said, “I’m not afraid.” She looked at Fu Chen and asked, “Brother, can you control zombies?”
Fu Chen shook his head and said, “Mental attacks are ineffective against zombies.”
“Because zombies don’t have brains?” Bai Qing Qing immediately said.
Fu Chen paused, nodded slightly, drove the car into a super shopping mall, got out and dealt with the ordinary zombies following behind, then opened the car door and took her into the mall.
Currently, Fu Chen’s strength is among the best in the apocalypse, possessing dual fourth-tier abilities, making him fearless wherever he goes.
The first floor of the shopping mall has supermarkets and restaurants; the second floor has women’s clothing and cosmetics stores; the third floor has restaurants and various clothing stores; and the fourth and fifth floors have various electronics stores and a movie theater.
Bai Qing Qing looked at the layout of the shopping center, eagerly preparing for a free shopping spree.
It was daytime, and the shopping mall was brightly lit. Some shops were open, others were closed, and there was no one else in sight besides the two of them.
Zombies don’t like to appear during the day, and even when they do, they’re not very active. Occasionally, one or two would pop up, but Fu Chen easily dealt with them.
Bai Qing Qing thought for a moment, then suddenly had a bright idea: “Brother, can your lightning ability charge your phone?”
Fu Chen looked at her. “What do you want to do?”
“I want to play on my phone,” Bai Qing Qing said, tugging at his arm playfully. “Let’s go to an electronics store.”
Traveling along the way was too boring; they needed to find some entertainment. Outside the post-apocalyptic safe zone, network signals were scarce. As long as a phone had power, it could play games without internet access.
Fu Chen led her to a brand-name electronics store. The Huacheng power system hadn’t been completely destroyed yet, so he turned on the lights and went inside to check.
Bai Qing Qing followed behind him, her eyes scanning the glass counters. She took a fancy to a rose gold phone, took it out, and put it in her storage space. She then looked at the other phones; her systems are working fine for now.
She packed a bunch of electrical appliances into her spatial storage. She’d collected some batteries in Jiangcheng, but they’d run out quickly.
To conserve electricity in the car, she decided to search for more batteries so she could use appliances more often.
After she finished collecting her phone, Fu Chen took her to a supermarket to search for supplies. They bought most of the usable items before leaving.
The two planned to stay in the mall longer and continue searching. Bai Qing Qing pulled over a shopping cart, sat down, and said to Fu Chen, “Brother, push me.”
Fu Chen: “…”
Bai Qing Qing had wanted to do this for a long time, but she’d been too shy before, afraid of being stared at.
Now that it was just the two of them in the mall, she wouldn’t feel ashamed no matter what she did. She was determined to experience the exhilarating feeling of sitting in the shopping cart and directing people to buy things.
Fu Chen didn’t move.
Bai Qing Qing looked back and urged, “Brother, please, push me around for a bit.”
Fu Chen silently walked over, grabbed the shopping cart, and pushed it forward. Bai Qing Qing excitedly pointed to a store, “Let’s go take a look.”
Bai Qing Qing complained that Fu Chen was pushing it too slowly, not exciting at all, and couldn’t help but say, “Brother, push faster!”
Fu Chen quickened his pace, pushing her forward rapidly. They stopped in the jewelry section, and Bai Qing Qing stared at a pink diamond ring in the glass case.
“Want it?” Fu Chen took it out and gave it to her.
Bai Qing Qing reached out and took it, putting it on her finger. The pink diamond sparkled brilliantly, making her slender fingers look exceptionally beautiful.
Fu Chen glanced at it a few more times.
After shopping for several hours, the two finally finished exploring the shopping center and returned to the hotel.
Shen Mingxuan and Xiao Yang also completed their tasks, handed the crystal cores to Liang Zhiyu for processing, and returned to their respective bedrooms.
Bai Qing Qing was just about to act as a caring and gentle older sister to comfort Xiao Yang when Cheng Rui came out of the room and looked at her, saying, “Bai Qing Qing, come help me change my dressing.”
If he hadn’t come out, Bai Qing Qing would have almost forgotten that she hadn’t changed his dressing yet.
Bai Qing Qing quickly got up, went over, and grabbed his arm, saying, “Liang Zhiyu said to keep your distance, come sit down.”
Fu Chen stared at her, holding Cheng Rui’s hand.
Half an hour ago, she was still clinging to his hand, acting like a spoiled child, making him push her around like a laborer; now she was acting like a submissive wife, serving Cheng Rui.
This brother of hers was like something used and then discarded.
Bai Qing Qing helped Cheng Rui sit down, took out a first-aid kit from her spatial storage, and placed it on the table, removing the gauze as she said, “Why didn’t you ask Liang Zhiyu or Bai Tian Tian to change your dressing?”
Cheng Rui remained silent. Liang Zhiyu had asked him if he wanted his dressing changed, and he said he would wait for Bai Qing Qing to return.
Liang Zhiyu narrowed his fox-like eyes, seemingly seeing through something, and smiled faintly, ignoring him.
Cheng Rui was the kind of person who, once he made up his mind, was unwavering and a man of action. Even though Xiao Yang had revealed his feelings for Bai Qing Qing, she hadn’t reciprocated.
Male creatures are born with a penchant for competing for attention; he had the right and the qualification to win her favor.
Bai Qing Qing, unaware of Cheng Rui’s inner turmoil, diligently tried to win him over, gently applying medicine to his wounds. Seeing the man’s brow furrow slightly, she immediately asked, “Did I hurt you?”
Cheng Rui pursed his lips and said, “It doesn’t hurt.”
Bai Qing Qing, holding the cotton swab, said, “I’ll be gentler.”
Fu Chen, his gaze fixed on Bai Qing Qing, had a dark expression. He realized his sister had unintentionally provoked someone again.
They were both men, but he couldn’t help but notice something fishy in Cheng Rui’s eyes; it was clearly the look of a man eyeing his prey.
“Qing Qing,” he called in a deep voice.
