I transformed into a cute girl and lived a carefree life in the apocalypse.

Liu Mengxian remained silent, but mimicked Yan Ziming's earlier demeanor, resting her chin on one hand and brushing her hair behind her ear with the other. Her eyelids were closed, and her crimson lips parted, every word and action exuding a fatal allure that would make Yan Ziming fall for her.

[She really is a vixen...] Yan Ziming mentally brought this fact up again and complained about it.

Just as her hand reached near the bamboo skewer, Yan Ziming changed her mind again, picked up a skewer with her slender fingers, and put it into Liu Mengxian's mouth.

"Hmm..." Yan Ziming's face couldn't help but turn red.

Because Liu Mengxian's mouth was relatively small, there was some resistance when Yan Ziming put the takoyaki into her mouth, and he had to use a little force to push it in.

However, this seems like doing something evil...

Suddenly, a sense of guilt, mixed with the immorality of defiling something beautiful, filled Yan Ziming's heart, making her blush.

Okay, so astringent...

Liu Mengxian fed him like a senior feeding a junior, which seemed perfectly normal to outsiders. But when it was Yan Ziming's turn to feed Liu Mengxian, a slightly blushing atmosphere set off, leaving Yan Ziming both amused and exasperated.

Yan Ziming decided that he should just feed Liu Mengxian with bamboo skewers instead; it wasn't appropriate to do something so wicked in public.

After glancing around again and making sure no one dared to peek in, Yan Ziming felt relieved and continued feeding Liu Mengxian.

Compared to her previous achievements, this trip today is a valuable step forward!

In the end, even the caramel cake was fed to Liu Mengxian by Yan Ziming, the fork covered in her saliva, glistening with its sweetness.

However, in the end, Yan Ziming discovered a problem—he had already finished his cake, so where would he find an opportunity for an indirect kiss?

Damn, I got so into it that I forgot about this!

I can't exactly let Xian'er feed her with this fork, can I? Wouldn't that make my intentions too obvious?

After hesitating for a while, Yan Ziming realized that Liu Mengxian had already eaten only one piece of cake without him noticing...

Ah this.

Noticing Yan Ziming's gaze, Liu Mengxian picked up the last piece with her fork, twirled it in mid-air, and looked at her with amusement.

It looked as if they were asking, "Want some?"

It was just a polite remark.

Before Yan Ziming could respond, he shoved it into Yan Ziming's mouth.

A fresh, sweet flavor bursts forth in my mouth, flowing over my tongue and into my heart...

Well... the result doesn't seem too bad?

This is what a certain girl who had tasted the 'special cuisine' thought to herself.

5. Would you like to come over to my house for a visit?

After relaxing in the coffee shop for a while, Yan Ziming and Liu Mengxian embarked on their 'journey' again.

Calling it a journey wouldn't be wrong, since there's still a lot of stuff to buy, and Yan Ziming estimates it will take a whole morning to get it all.

So, for the entire morning, Yan Ziming dragged Liu Mengxian around, attracting a lot of attention and carrying more and more things in his hands.

Even Liu Mengxian was carrying many bags and packages at this moment. Out of gentlemanly manners, Yan Ziming had even more, almost piling them up into a small mountain.

"Hey, you two beautiful ladies, need any help?"

Two frail women carrying such heavy things naturally attracted some self-proclaimed outstanding men who offered to help. Now, a well-dressed man... cough cough, with a dignified appearance, should be a rich kid.

"Uh, thank you, but no need."

Yan Ziming deliberately swung the dozen or so large bags on his right arm; they were so heavy that even a strong, muscular man could crush them.

"It seems the little girl is quite strong, but it must be difficult for you to move around like this. Let me help you carry it."

The man remained unconvinced and stubbornly stuck to his own opinion.

That's what he said, but his eyes kept drifting towards Liu Mengxian, which annoyed Yan Ziming.

His gaze was unreserved, and Yan Ziming could even see the wicked desire in it.

"Hey, if you look again, I'll gouge your eyes out," Yan Ziming said coldly, staring at him.

“Huh—?!”

The man's face turned deathly pale instantly, and he took a few steps back. He didn't know why he was so afraid, as if this was the most appropriate reaction to face her.

All thoughts of hunting for women vanished; his body, driven by instinct, reacted first, and he fled in panic.

"Holy crap, what's wrong with me? I'm a fifth-tier ability user... What kind of monster is that girl? She looks so cute and innocent..."

After turning a corner, the wealthy young man leaned against the wall, panting, his facial muscles twitching uncontrollably, and he had found his answer.

"Damn it, looks like we've encountered a high-level monster. If we can't afford to mess with it, can't we at least avoid it...?"

On the other side, Yan Ziming and Liu Mengxian arrived at a huge store, which was also Yan Ziming's most important goal for this trip.

This place specializes in selling all kinds of high-end food, from fruits that cost hundreds or thousands of yuan per kilogram to special rice that costs thousands of RMB per bowl. It has everything, and you could say that this is a place that ordinary people will never have the chance to visit in their entire lives.

Yan Zimo also placed his last hope here.

The young woman at the door, seeing the two stunningly beautiful women, Yan Ziming and Liu Mengxian, immediately brightened up and warmly greeted them:

"Hello, gentlemen. What would you like to receive?"

"Um, I wanted to ask if you have lotus seeds here?" Yan Ziming got straight to the point.

"Lotus seeds?" The waitress was slightly taken aback.

It's not that we don't have any here, it's just that this quarter's stock was sold out long ago, there's no inventory left, Yan Ziming is late.

She quickly realized what was happening and said apologetically to Yan Ziming, "I'm sorry, the lotus seeds are all sold out. Would you like to look at something else?"

"Sold out..." Yan Ziming couldn't help but reveal his disappointment.

A store that seemed promising, and it's already sold out?

"Sigh... never mind then. See if you have these things here. If you do, take me to see them."

If you can't have it, don't force it. Yan Ziming took out a list and handed it to the waitress. It was a list of various ingredients that hadn't been bought yet.

"Yes, please follow me to the second floor."

The waitress glanced at the list and knew what it contained. She then led Yan Ziming and Liu Mengxian up to the second floor.

It must be said that the items here are worth the price; they are all top-quality goods that you simply cannot buy in ordinary markets.

Yan Ziming went around in circles and bought a lot of things that weren't on the list, treating it as preparation for the New Year.

Whether it was to distract Yan Ziming from the lotus seeds or because she genuinely wanted to eat them, Liu Mengxian also picked out a few rather expensive items, which she then added to the bill.

By the time Yan Ziming finished buying the remaining items on the list, he had spent over a million yuan. And that was just what he spent at this store. The rest of the miscellaneous items would probably have cost over two million yuan.

I really don't know how they maintain a stable supply in this post-apocalyptic world. Is it true that money can solve everything?

At this moment, the front desk manager said to Yan Ziming:

"Where are you two going next? You can leave your belongings here with us, and we can deliver them to your door later."

"Oh? Then I'll leave it to you."

Yan Ziming gladly accepted; why not take such a good opportunity!

This saves Yan Ziming from carrying so many bags home, and he can also take Xian'er to places along the way to strengthen their relationship...

"Oh my, oh my, you are... Zi Mo?"

Just as Yan Ziming filled in the address and was about to leave with Liu Mengxian, a person came down from the third floor. Upon seeing Yan Ziming in disguise, the person immediately recognized her identity.

"Ah? Hmm? Aunt Xia?!"

Having just unloaded her burdens, Yan Ziming heard that familiar "Ah-la~" and her body trembled. She looked over, a little reserved.

"Oh my, it really is Zimo! It's been so long!"

Xia Ziyun greeted her warmly, hugged Yan Ziming tightly, and buried her face in her ample bosom.

Although it's been more than a few years since we last met, it's normal for even the most familiar people to drift apart.

But Yan Ziming is already at the ninth level, and many people are trying to get close to her. They can't afford to distance themselves from this great god.

Moreover, given her close relationship with her daughter, she couldn't afford to become estranged, and...

"Ugh!! Pfft—Aunt Xia, what are you doing here?"

After Yan Ziming got out of the face wash, he subconsciously took two steps back to keep his distance from Xia Ziyun.

Damn it, no wonder she's Mu Mu's mother, they're all dangerous people!

"I just came here to buy some New Year's goods... By the way, where's Xiaosimo? Did you bring her out to play this time?"

"Uh... Sisi..."

When a certain eccentric little girl was mentioned, Yan Ziming's lips twitched slightly, and his gaze drifted to the horizon, "She didn't come..."

Since that incident, this sadistic little girl has disappeared. During this time, Yan Ziming went to look for her at the artificial lake in Yong'an City, but she wasn't there.

"Hmm?" Yan Ziming suddenly felt his sleeve being tugged.

"Mo'er, can we have one more thing?"

Yan Ziming turned around and saw Liu Mengxian holding a box with the word 'Pocky' printed on it, staring straight at her.
