"Yellow" One Room.

On the 32-inch display, the final episode of the new anime 'Demon Slayer' was playing.

"Yang Ao!!!"

Shen Jin shouted loudly from his electric sofa.

"Coming!"

Yang Ao walked over with a guilty look, like a thief.

"Let's go out again tomorrow to rescue someone. Don't play too late."

Shen Jin knew Yang Ao had plans for today and didn't stop him. It was all consensual anyway.

"Alright, Brother Jin. I'll go grab some steamed buns."

"Go ahead. You don't need to tell me about such small matters."

Yang Ao gave Shen Jin a grateful look and left.

He secretly thought to himself that he had to do something special for Brother Jin today.

Shen Jin continued watching the anime, already having his own plans. He decided to give Yang Ao an opportunity.

"I hope you don't disappoint me."

Meanwhile, in Yang Ao's room.

Li Jie and Su Lele were still in shock from too many things they had witnessed on the way, their faces still holding expressions of disbelief.

"This villa actually has such complex roads underground!"

"And there's electricity underground!"

"Is this the power of a Transcendent? It's too terrifying~"

After their exclamations, the two women started to eye each other with displeasure again. Li Jie spoke first.

"Oh my, Lele, are you wearing clothes your boyfriend gave you? You were so sweet when you parted, saying you'd live well together. How did you end up following along? Wouldn't your boyfriend be furious if he knew?"

Su Lele retorted without backing down, "Sister, don't talk about me. Who was it that was almost crying with tears streaming down their face back then? It was truly hilarious."

"Hmph!"

"Hmph hmph!"

Yang Ao returned from Shen Jin's room. "You guys eat first, then take turns showering."

He placed three plastic bags and the steamed buns, just heated in the microwave, on the table, and Yang Ao began to ponder.

Brother Jin treated me well. I can't be selfish, I need to arrange something good for Brother Jin.

Although I don't want to say it, Brother Jin is the type who is outwardly reserved but inwardly passionate.

Someone too forward might not be able to handle it.

Looking at the restrained Su Lele, she clearly wanted more but was pretending to be pure and cute.

Perfect! This type is very suitable for Brother Jin.

Seeing that there was no one else around Yang Ao and no strange requests were being made for the moment, the two women began to eat.

For the first few bites, they were quite restrained.

But... it was too damn delicious!

Su Lele watched Li Jie gradually increase her pace and also started to chew faster.

The two of them hadn't eaten a proper meal in a week. When Shang Qian left, only a week's worth of meager rations were left for everyone.

It was barely enough to survive.

As Li Jie ate, large tears began to fall.

Then, she tossed her head back and gave a carefree laugh, as if the tears had never appeared.

"I didn't expect rice could be this delicious. I always thought it was tasteless before, haha~"

Su Lele, gnawing on the warm steamed buns, felt the same way but didn't want to follow Li Jie's lead.

"Hmph! That's because you've never been hungry!"

Soon, all the food was gone, and the two women let out satisfied burps.

"Brother Ao, tell us, should we go together, or one by one?" Li Jie was very direct, her hand already resting suggestively on Yang Ao's leg.

Su Lele spat and cursed Li Jie as shameless in her heart.

But she didn't speak up. After eating this meal, she knew something was likely to happen.

Now, she could only hope Yang Ao didn't have any strange fetishes.

"Su Lele, you go shower first. When you come out, I have something to arrange for you."

Half an hour passed. Just as Yang Ao was getting impatient, Su Lele emerged, wrapped in a bath towel.

Her tender and fair jade arms were exposed, along with her delicate collarbones. Her upper chest was like icy branches and white jade, while her lower part resembled a silver bowl holding snow.

Her lips were red and her teeth were white, with a pair of bright, clear eyes that seemed to radiate the unique glow of a young girl. She was like a lotus emerging from clear water, naturally unadorned! Yang Ao was completely stunned. He had misjudged. He thought Su Lele would be at most a little beauty, only notable for her youth. He hadn't expected... Su Lele, seeing Yang Ao's gaze, felt a secret joy. At her age, she didn't need any cosmetics to look her best. Clearly, he was attracted to her. However, Yang Ao's next sentence sent her plummeting into despair. "Alright, good. Go fetch a basin of hot water, then go to room 'Yellow' One next door and give the person inside a massage. Just do as they say the whole time." Seeing the mist forming in Su Lele's eyes, on the verge of tears, Yang Ao frowned, feeling a bit impatient, but still explained, "The person inside, you should know them." Su Lele's initially fearful heart suddenly felt a flicker of curiosity. But seeing Yang Ao impatiently waving her away, she kept it to herself. "Wait, come back!" Su Lele's emotions were a rollercoaster. Staying here meant facing an unknown person and situation. It was better to go. Although Yang Ao could be fierce sometimes, he still treated her like a person. "Hm?" Yang Ao suddenly smiled with a touch of mischief, "When you knock, say, 'Sir, your technician has arrived.' Got it?" "Ah? Ah, I got it." Su Lele, 24 years old, stood before room 'Yellow' One. Hesitating, pacing, walking in circles... After a moment, she took a deep breath and gently knocked. "Knock, knock, knock~" "Sir, your technician has arrived." In the dim underground passage, the sound-activated lights flickered on. Shen Jin had just finished the last episode of Demon Slayer and was lamenting the lack of bullet comments in the apocalypse, unable to appreciate the witty remarks of netizens. "Ah, half the fun of watching anime is gone." A woman's voice came from outside the door. "Technician???" Shen Jin was a bit confused. Why was a woman here? Did Yang Ao bring her? Shouldn't she be in his room? Shen Jin looked at the monitor wall and saw Su Lele standing at the door. "Huh!? Where did this beauty come from? I don't remember seeing her before." Shen Jin checked all the cameras in the house and found nothing abnormal, then opened the door. He asked with a straight face, "What do you want?" Su Lele nodded repeatedly, "Want..." "Cough, I asked why you're here?" "Yes." Shen Jin: ∑( ̄□ ̄*||| Seeing the woman holding a basin, Shen Jin asked again, "Were you rescued by Wanyu Group? Did Yang Ao send you?" Shen Jin didn't remember this face among his former colleagues, but she looked a bit familiar. "Ah, yes. Brother Ao sent me to give you a massage." "Oh? Is that so." Shen Jin suddenly found it quite interesting, and this young woman was quite pretty. Her every expression and smile inexplicably matched his aesthetic. "Then come in." Su Lele looked at this man with a good build and a slightly handsome face. She seemed to have some recollection and boldly asked, "Brother, before the apocalypse, did we meet somewhere?" Shen Jin was taken aback and suddenly recalled a memory, saying in disbelief, "You're Lele?" "Yes, my name is Su Lele."

"I remember now! You graduated last year, right? I saw you when I went to the school for recruitment. You applied for a position at Wanyu Group back then."

"Ah! I remember now, Shen Senior!"

The two had met once before, and Shen Jin had even offered some words of encouragement at the time.

He hadn't expected that after that campus recruitment drive, he would resign. It just so happened that he missed the onboarding of Su Lele.

After they recognized each other, the atmosphere suddenly became a bit awkward.

Shen Jin thought to himself: Should I still give up my spot to her?

However, Su Lele sensitively spotted an opportunity.

An opportunity for her to climb high and become someone important.

"Senior, thank you for rescuing me. You must be exhausted after killing so many zombies, right? Let me give you a massage."

Su Lele smiled beautifully, as lovely as she was in college, instantly bringing back memories for Shen Jin.

"I do feel a bit tired... How about a massage then?"
