“No, I’m telling you, honey, Li Ming really didn’t give me any food. Didn’t you say he just brought back lots of food? With all that food, he wouldn’t be so selfish as to not want to share with us, right?”
Seeing his wife appear somewhat angry, Peng Zhi quickly put down his phone, turned towards her, patted her with his hand, and asked in a soft voice.
Zhang Yuan was irritated. She swatted away Peng Zhi’s hand, turned her body away from him, grunted in her mind, and said bluntly, “Who said Li Ming didn’t have food? He had stir-fried leek and eggs, pumpkin porridge, and steamed buns.”
Not only did he eat, but I also made the food for him, and even fed him.
Zhang Yuan thought to herself. Hearing this, Peng Zhi became anxious: “Since he ate, and ate so well, wouldn’t he even have the conscience to give us a little more?”
“Who says he has no conscience? I ate with him and was fully satisfied”
Zhang Yuan glances at him, retracts her gaze, and says in a plain voice.
“Then why does he let you eat, but not me?”
Peng Zhi adjusted his glasses, somewhat flustered, “How much more can one person eat, he can’t even spare a bit?”
“Of course he’s willing to feed me, his relationship with you isn’t great, why should he feed you?”
Zhang Yuan turned her back to him. Peng Zhi was so angry that he clenched his fist: “Damn the bastard, he is intolerable.”
“What do I do now, am I going to starve to death…”
“No, no, honey, you have to plead with him nicely for me tomorrow. It’s OK if he doesn’t give more, being able to eat one meal is enough. Humans are iron, rice is steel, if I don’t eat, I’m anxious. I’m already starving having only missed two meals today. If I don’t eat for a full day, I’m doomed.”
“If worst comes to worst, you can do some more work for him, as long as you have food to eat.”
As soon as Peng Zhi heard that he might not have food, he immediately panicked. He didn’t notice the tone in Zhang Yuan’s voice, and hastily pleaded with his wife.
Zhang Yuan closed her eyes and didn’t speak. When Peng Zhi nudged her, she slowly said: “If there’s no food, go find some yourself. Kill the zombies blocking the road, wouldn’t that get us some food? If you don’t dare to go, I can’t guarantee whether I can get you any food.”
“It’s not a matter of daring or not, it’s a matter of whether I can do such a foolish thing.”
Peng Zhi replied indignantly, but his tone softened, and he begged with a flattering laugh, “Then please, my wife, can you please help me beg him tomorrow and say some nice things so that I can eat, eh?”
“Alright, alright, let’s sleep.”
Zhang Yuan waved her hand impatiently, and Peng Zhi quickly agreed. After that, he stayed on one side and continued to play his game.
Zhang Yuan closed her eyes and fell asleep quietly.

Day twelve of the apocalypse.
In the morning, as the sun just began to rise, Li Ming’s biological clock had already woken him up on time.
Perhaps due to his awakened abilities, even if he went to bed late last night, he felt energetic and refreshed when he woke up this morning.
When he woke up, he felt a soft body beside him. When he turned his head, there was a beauty sleeping next to him, and it was Chen Li.
Li Ming leapt towards her.
“……”
During their conversation, it quickly became seven in the morning.
Chen Li washed up, tired, and was thinking about what to make for Li Ming’s breakfast when the bedroom door was pushed open. Zhang Yuan, clean and refreshed, walked in.
Chen Li was stunned, before quickly realizing a new aspect of Zhang Yuan and Li Ming’s relationship. She had a guess in her heart and tentatively asked about what to eat in the morning, to which Zhang Yuan said that she’d handle it.
“Alright, then I won’t keep you, my daughter is waiting for me to cook back home.”
Chen Li finally felt relieved, bid Li Ming and Zhang Yuan goodbye, then smiled, carried her things, and left.
“Goodbye.”
Zhang Yuan waved cheerfully, then, after Chen Li returned home and closed the door, she turned around and approached Li Ming, giving him a pitiful look.
She then happily started making breakfast, and after finishing, sat down to eat with Li Ming.
“My husband asked me to beg you to at least leave him a meal to eat every day,” said Zhang Yuan while slurping soup, smiling at Li Ming.

“We’re neighbors, how could I not show such a simple act of kindness? You decide,” asserted Li Ming with a generous tone.
Zhang Yuan nodded with a beaming smile. She liked Li Ming’s gesture of trust.
As time wore on, rather than diminishing, Zhang Yuan’s fear of the apocalypse surged. It was a feeling of desolation, akin to hopes being shattered.
In such circumstances, Peng Zhi succumbed to despair, whereas there was a man by her side who fought against it and triumphed.
In order to escape the intensifying whirlpool of the apocalypse, she was resorting to various means with the hope of rightfully becoming Li Ming’s woman.
Li Ming was quite moved, feeling tense about the unveiling of a new phase of the apocalypse. The devoted companionship of such a woman comforted him.
Zhang Yuan was quite pleased and happily had breakfast with him. She got up to wash the dishes.
Meanwhile, Li Ming in his room, exhausted his telekinetic power all at once, then exhaled deeply, continuing his study of the form and intent of Five Elements Boxing.
He watched the instructional videos three times consecutively, familiarizing himself with each move before getting up to practice.
“Chop, drill, crash, canon, cross…” Li Ming practiced each punch, not for power or speed, but for correct form. He repeated this for over a dozen times, striving for accurate form each time.
By the twentieth repetition, he was naturally making the correct movements.
Only then did Li Ming begin to exert strength, delivering the Five Elements Boxing punches one by one.
After exhausting cycles, Li Ming had a sudden epiphany, deepening his understanding of Five Elements Boxing, as if he had been learning it since childhood.

As a line of words floated before his eyes, the corners of Li Ming’s mouth curved upwards. He continued to adjust his form and force according to the enlightenment in his heart.
Zhang Yuan, after washing the dishes, brought a stool over and sat at Li Ming’s door, her short skirt’s hem on the seat. She extended her long legs, watching Li Ming exercise as if it was something greatly intriguing.
She continued watching from morning till noon. When Li Ming began to rest from exhaustion, Zhang Yuan got up to wring a towel for him and wiped his sweat.
“Let’s have stir-fried meat for lunch. You’ve worked so hard, you need to replenish,” Zhang Yuan said tenderly as she wiped his sweat.
“Alright.”
Li Ming, catching his breath with arms wide open, let Zhang Yuan wipe his sweat, but his eyes were fixated on the panel before him, his heart filled with a touch of smile.
[Form and Intent of Five Elements Boxing (beginner’s path 0%)]
He had raised the level of the Form and Intent of Five Elements Boxing ease earlier in the morning!
Li Ming understood that unlike weapons, each punch unleashed with all might was enough to be classified as training. With his current stamina, he hardly needed rest and a morning’s continuous training had raised the level of this boxing maneuver.
“Maybe I can go up another level this afternoon.”
Li Ming’s heart was bright, his eyes full of smiles. He waited patiently for Zhang Yuan to finish wiping his sweat, his gaze falling on her immaculate skin, and his heart stirred a bit.
…
Half an hour later.
An energized Zhang Yuan was again busy cooking, while Li Ming sat comfortably in his chair sipping water and resting.
