He Had to Be My Prince Charming

Shen Yi used teleportation and arrived on the fifteenth floor within seconds.

Since this upscale apartment complex had only two units per elevator, 1501 was not hard to find.

He came to the door and knocked politely.

He needed to see what the Resident of 1501 looked like first. If she did not meet the system's standards, Shen Yi would turn around and leave immediately!

After waiting for a while, the electronic lock beeped and the door opened. (Electronic locks could still work for a long time even during a power outage; they had stored power. This was not a plot hole.)

A girl appeared at the door, her face deathly pale. She wore a mint-green short-sleeved shirt on top and light-blue high-waisted denim shorts below.

She was very beautiful. Her smooth chestnut-brown hair had been styled into soft waves, with one side tucked behind her ear to reveal a small pearl stud, while the other side fell naturally to frame her face.

Her legs were long and straight, their muscles smoothly defined, giving her a healthy, energetic air. At a glance, it was obvious that she exercised regularly.

However, That beautiful left leg was now almost completely dyed red with blood. Even with strips of cloth tied around it, the bleeding would not stop at all.

Or rather, the girl simply did not know how to treat a wound, which was why it had gotten this bad.

Perhaps due to excessive blood loss, her face was extremely pale, and even her lips had lost their color.

At that moment, The system activated.

Ding!

A goddess meeting the system's standards has been detected. Beginning detailed scan.

Name: Qu Xiaoxiao

Age: 24

Appearance: 91 points

Figure: 95 points

Inner Qualities: 100 points (Extensive self-defense experience, no actual combat experience)

Total Score: 96 points

Evaluation: After taking her in, one random supply item can be unlocked.

"Hm?"

Shen Yi's gaze fell on the inner qualities evaluation.

This was the first time such an evaluation had appeared.

Extensive self-defense experience.

So she was Porn Watcher Sister?

But no matter what, she met the system's standards.

"Um... are you the resident of 2001?" Qu Xiaoxiao asked cautiously.

She had only opened the door after confirming through the peephole that Shen Yi was not one of the thugs downstairs.

"Yeah. Your leg is bleeding again. Stop the bleeding first."

As Shen Yi spoke, he scooped her up and walked into the room.

Qu Xiaoxiao froze.

For that instant, she actually forgot to resist.

It was only because Shen Yi's movements had been too natural—so natural that it felt as though they were a couple.

But it lasted only a moment. Qu Xiaoxiao came to her senses and immediately began struggling, her face flushing red as she repeatedly refused, "Y-you can't do this! We just met!"

"Besides, I'm injured. We can't do that kind of thing..."

"If... if you really want to, at least wait until my injury heals!"

In truth, Qu Xiaoxiao had thought Shen Yi was quite handsome at first glance. He was tall too, and he fit her standards for a partner rather well.

It was the apocalypse now. Finding a man to rely on would not be so bad...

But she could not accept exercising the moment they met!

At the very least, they should introduce themselves first, right?

Shen Yi did not explain. He placed the wildly overthinking Qu Xiaoxiao on the sofa, then took out gauze and baijiu from the System Space—things he had picked up while clearing out the supermarket—and began disinfecting and bandaging her wound.

Shen Yi did not explain because Qu Xiaoxiao was already showing signs that something was wrong from excessive blood loss.

There were no decent medical conditions in the apocalypse. If excessive blood loss caused any complications, it would be troublesome.

Shen Yi was still counting on her to unlock supplies.

He could not let himself make a wasted trip and squander a roll of gauze and some baijiu for nothing, could he?

Especially the baijiu. Shen Yi had searched the entire supermarket and only found two bottles of uncontaminated high-proof baijiu. He had originally planned to save them for disinfecting his own wounds later.

After all, the apocalypse was not like before. If he got injured, there would be no doctor.

Shen Yi had been thinking of making another trip to the hospital in the next couple of days to stock up on medicine in advance, in case he accidentally got sick in the future.

"Hisss~~" Qu Xiaoxiao frowned in pain, instinctively gripping Shen Yi's thigh with all her strength as she screamed.

Even Shen Yi's thigh hurt from her grip.

Using baijiu to disinfect a wound was not the kind of pain an ordinary person could endure.

However, though Shen Yi's movements were rough, he worked quickly.

Once the disinfection was done, he tightly wrapped her wound in gauze, finally stopping the bleeding.

"Alright. Rest properly for now. I'll come back tomorrow to disinfect it and change the gauze." After saying that, Shen Yi prepared to leave.

This woman was so badly injured that she definitely couldn't unlock any rewards right now.

He would let her recover for a couple of days first.

It wouldn't cost him much in supplies anyway.

Shen Yi left behind a roast chicken, then directly used Instant Movement to leave.

He made no demands and asked for nothing in return.

Because he had already decided that Qu Xiaoxiao belonged to him.

Naturally, there was no need to explain anything.

What if Qu Xiaoxiao refused?

Then she could give her life back!

If Shen Yi hadn't saved her, she would have died today without a doubt!

Besides, Qu Xiaoxiao had seen his ability. If she was unwilling to submit, then he had to silence her!

Shen Yi had no intention of letting his Instant Movement be exposed. Otherwise, it would be troublesome if people targeted him in the future.

This was what they meant by: every gift of fate came with a price secretly marked on it!

The moment Shen Yi chose to save Qu Xiaoxiao, she had only two choices left.

Submit, or die.

"C-Could he be the Prince Charming Heaven sent to save me?"

Qu Xiaoxiao lay weakly on the sofa, blankly recalling how Shen Yi had treated her wound and left food for her.

As she thought about it, her face gradually turned red.

She had watched him wave his hand, and gauze, baijiu, and food had all appeared.

And after helping her, this man had asked for nothing at all and simply left!

If that wasn't Prince Charming, then what was it!?

Was he some kind of immortal??

Qu Xiaoxiao had thought she would have to offer herself to repay the debt of saving her life.

Yet he had asked for nothing!

Instead, that left Qu Xiaoxiao feeling a little disappointed.

"Still, he said he'd come back tomorrow to change my dressing. That means we'll see each other again then, right?"

Qu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but feel expectant again.

Though weak and powerless, she even considered freshening herself up so she could welcome her Prince Charming in her best state.

"It smells so good..."

Qu Xiaoxiao gently turned over and looked toward the steaming roast chicken on the table.

She remembered that her Prince Charming had casually conjured this chicken out of thin air, as though he possessed the methods of an immortal.

"He really is the Prince Charming from my dreams!"

Thinking that, Qu Xiaoxiao happily began eating the chicken.

After leaving Qu Xiaoxiao's home, Shen Yi headed straight for the first floor.

It was time to deal with those thugs.

Their usefulness had come to an end.

When Shen Yi appeared on the first floor, he saw several thugs grilling meat.

The meat they were grilling had actually been cut from corpses.

No wonder these people hadn't starved to death. They were full of strength instead, enough even to smash down doors.

"Who's there!?"

"Brother Wang, there's some pretty boy!"

The thugs spotted Shen Yi.

At once, someone picked up a knife and glared at him viciously, the ferocity in his eyes like that of a wild beast.

"Shen Yi! It's actually you!!"

Suddenly, Blondie, his face swollen all over, stepped out from a corner and stared at Shen Yi with venomous resentment.

It was because Shen Yi had abandoned him that he had ended up like this.

It was all Shen Yi's fault!

Shen Yi had ruined him!!
