It was past midnight, and the young woman Bai Jie was wearing a thin red nightgown, leaning on the sofa with one hand, fully displaying her graceful figure.
If it were before the apocalypse, she would have been asleep by now.
But tonight, she was particularly restless.
It wasn't that she couldn't sleep, but that she hadn't had a proper meal in several days.
The feeling of hunger was like the bitter water of the sea, churning in her stomach without the slightest intention of stopping.
This intense hunger tormented her, making it almost impossible for her to fall asleep.
If it weren't for the two loaves of bread the man across the hall gave her two days ago, she might not have made it through yesterday.
Actually, she had been waiting for news from her husband, Wang Shen, these past few days.
But ever since he went out to play cards the night before last, he hadn't returned.
And she had escaped disaster that day because she happened to be off work and stayed home.
By now, she had a premonition that her good-for-nothing cheap husband had probably met with misfortune long ago.
The reason she said this wasn't because she was heartless, but because there was truly no affection between them! She and Wang Shen got married when she was 27, introduced by someone in the village.
At that time, her mother had an accident and urgently needed a large sum for medical expenses. With no other choice, she hastily married Wang Shen.
But it wasn't until after they got married that she realized the young and handsome man the old folks in the village spoke of didn't even have a proper job in this big city!
He idled around all day, gambling for a living, his head full of unrealistic ideas, always dreaming of reaching the top in one step.
So, both of them relied on her meager teacher's salary to get by.
Even these two apartments were bought by her through her own efforts, winning awards and commendations, and being frugal.
Otherwise, they wouldn't even have a place to stay.
And this wasn't the only reason she felt nothing for Wang Shen.
The main reason was that they had never engaged in any intimate relations!
They say the Y-channel is the passage to a woman's heart.
But for so many years, they had always slept in separate beds.
Even on their wedding night, they didn't sleep in the same bed! Because Wang Shen was impotent! He was incomplete! He was simply a "Yang Wei" man!!!
After her persistent questioning, she finally learned that Wang Shen had played too much LOL when he was young, leading to a lack of stamina later on, and he could no longer get it up.
He simply couldn't do that kind of thing!!! Let alone have children!
Therefore, she had also been criticized by the villagers quite a bit.
They called her a Harbinger of Doom, saying that marrying her brought misfortune to the family! How could anyone have considered the grievances in her heart?
But out of gratitude for Wang Shen's help, she couldn't tell anyone the truth about all of this.
She could only bear it silently.
Because she knew in her heart that the reason Wang Shen married her was simply because he needed a shield.
So, you can imagine, for five whole years, do you know how she lived? Thinking of this, Bai Jie looked at her straight and tightly closed jade legs reflected in the window, and a hint of resentment flashed in her eyes.
This was her sorrow as a woman!
If it were before the apocalypse, she could have ignored these thoughts, focused wholeheartedly on earning money to support the family, taking care of Wang Shen, and trying to repay his kindness to her.
Although she had pretty much repaid it over the years.
But after the apocalypse, the hunger and torment of so many days, plus the occasional terrifying roars of those monsters.
She had barely had a good night's sleep all these days.
If the physical torment was still bearable, the mental torment was pushing her to the brink of collapse.
The fear of the unknown, the confusion about the future, how could a weak woman like her bear it!
So, after two days of thinking, it was also her last stubbornness as a woman.
She knew she had to consider herself.
Just then, the young man Meng De happened to appear before her.
His chiseled face, explosive muscles, and strong body fascinated her and made her feel a long-lost sense of security.
Now that it was the apocalypse, if she had to choose someone, perhaps that Meng De was her best choice.
Just thinking about what he said that day made her blush. Tsk! Who talks so directly!
Thinking of this, her face turned bright red. Just then, there were two soft knocks on the door, which instantly made her alert. "Who is it?"
"It's me!"
Oh, it's that man! Bai Jie finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Opening the door, she saw a familiar figure standing at the entrance.
The person who came was the man she had just been thinking about, Meng De!
Having received Bai Jie's text message, he immediately sprang up like a fish, becoming completely excited.
Fortunately, the two sisters were sound asleep, and he made almost no noise when he left.
"You're here."
Hearing Bai Jie's shy voice, he nodded, then walked in on his own. The young woman, Bai Jie, followed behind him somewhat nervously.
He sat on the sofa, observing the young woman in front of him.
Her features were delicate, and her hair cascaded over her shoulders. It was clear she had just put on makeup.
Although she looked a little tired, it didn't affect her beauty in the slightest.
Her pair of "lanterns" were full and spherical, truly a surging tide.
Her red slip dress was extremely short, barely covering her alluring backside.
Below, her pair of jade legs were long and rounded, fair and tender.
Her delicate little feet were painted with light pink nail polish.
Under the dim light, they appeared extremely tempting and moist.
Seeing this scene, Meng De seemed calm on the surface, but his heart was already surging with emotion.
He hadn't had any "meat" for two whole days. Moreover, as soon as he entered the door, he heard the system's prompt.
After only two days apart, the woman in front of him's favorability towards him had actually soared from -90 directly to 30!
It was a huge leap in favorability!
This meant there was a chance tonight. However, he still forcefully suppressed the excitement in his heart and said in a calm tone,
"Sister Bai, why did you call me over so late?"
"Aren't you afraid your husband will misunderstand?"
Although he knew very well in his heart why this woman had called him over so late, it didn't stop him from making her recognize her place first.
He wanted to properly "discipline" the proud young woman in front of him. As expected, seeing that Meng De, whom she had called over, wasn't as happy as she had imagined, Bai Jie looked a little disappointed.
She had thought the man in front of her really wanted her, but now it seemed she had been overthinking.
For a moment, she didn't know what to say.
"I... I..."
Seeing this, Meng De felt anxious for her and said in an impatient tone,
"Sister Bai, just say whatever you need to say."
"If I can help, I definitely will, right!"
Being spoken to like that, Bai Jie's eyes turned red, and she almost wanted to say never mind, it's nothing. But the hunger coming from her body forcefully stopped her.
She gritted her teeth and closed her eyes.
"I just wanted to ask you, do the words you said two days ago still count..."
Meng De smiled, a hint of an inexplicable smile flashing across his lips. Thanks to the two little darlings, Black and White God, o827, and other godfathers for their recommendation votes, and o827 and other godfathers for their monthly ticket support!
