A bizarre dungeon descends: I became the father of the monster.

Chapter 1

Inside a restaurant in Dahan City.

"I'm a straightforward person, please don't mind me."

A 26-year-old woman in business attire plopped down in front of Shen Gui and began to speak before the waiter could pour her water.

Her name is Su Ran, and she came here specifically for a blind date. This is her tenth blind date this month.

In her eyes, none of the previous nine men were men.

Even though the only way to get food in this world now is by exploring dungeons, those guys can't even afford a meal, yet they have the nerve to go on blind dates?

Although Shen Gui doesn't seem like much, at least he can treat people to a meal.

Shen Gui nodded and pushed the menu over: "Take a look first..."

Su Ran took the menu, and after only a few seconds, her eyes lit up. She quickly tapped on the menu.

"Stir-fried prawns, steamed sea bass, crispy chicken wings, and three bottles of spring water."

The waiter standing nearby was completely mesmerized by Su Ran's confident and assertive manner.

The spring water alone is worth the same weight in silver in today's world, not to mention the fancy dishes she ordered.

"Miss, are you sure? Isn't this too much?"

Su Ran rolled her eyes at the waiter: "You think this is a lot? If your shop wasn't so small, I would have ordered more."

The waiter took the menu, glanced at Shen Gui, and seeing that Shen Gui was smiling and had no objections, he could only nod and leave.

"Alright, please wait a moment, distinguished guests."

Su Ran leaned back in her chair and glanced at Shen Gui:

"Your name is... Shen Gui, right? I've heard about you from Aunt Wang."

"Hehe, Aunt Wang has already explained your situation." Shen Gui still smiled, as if he wasn't the one who would be paying later.

Seeing Shen Gui's calm and composed demeanor, Su Ran couldn't help but think more highly of him.

"You're unemployed, aren't you? Logically speaking, you're not good enough for me. If Aunt Wang hadn't begged me, I wouldn't have bothered coming."

Shen Gui thought about it and realized it was true; she was a white-collar worker, while he was just a lazy bum who stayed at home.

Even though the world has already ended, it doesn't matter whether I lie down or not.

"That makes sense, please continue."

"I'll tell you a few conditions first. If you can accept them, then we can continue our discussion."

"Can."

Su Ran held up one finger: "First, we have to buy a house when we get married, in full, with you paying for it, and my name has to be on the property deed, otherwise I won't feel secure."

"It's human nature, and it's acceptable."

Su Ran raised an eyebrow and held up her second finger:

"Secondly, I have a younger brother who is getting married next year. The minimum dowry I can offer is 880,000 yuan. If you can accept that, then we can continue."

"It's only natural for a family to love and care for each other."

Su Ran smiled with satisfaction. There are still men in this world.

Those ordinary men who followed her before were simply a waste of her time.

"Third, your monthly material rations will all be transferred to my name after we get married, including your salary. In other words, whatever you receive each month, I will receive the same amount."

She paused for a second and glanced at Shen Gui's expression.

In this post-apocalyptic world, the Dragon Kingdom operates on a minimum quota plus voluntary participation model, where participation in social production guarantees a minimum level of material support.

Shen Gui nodded: "Men are in charge of external affairs, and women are in charge of internal affairs; this has been the way since ancient times."

Su Ran smiled even more brightly. Sure enough, her best friend was right. As long as you are patient enough, you can always find the right one.

Although Shen Gui wasn't her ideal type and wasn't handsome enough, he was still acceptable.

"Fourth, I can't do housework or cook, so you'll have to take care of all of that. After we get married, my mom will live with us, and your parents aren't allowed to come."

"Don't worry, now that we're married, your mom is my mom too."

"No, you have to be more filial to my mother than to your own, otherwise we can't even talk."

"Of course." Shen Gui nodded quickly.

At this moment, the dishes Su Ran ordered arrived.

The long-lost aroma made Su Ran's mouth water.

She hadn't had a decent meal in so long; all she got every day was a state-rationed whole-wheat bread, and she was getting sick of it.

"Um......"

Su Ran swallowed hard, not having time to make any further requests, and grabbed the large shrimp on the table to wolf them down.

Shen Gui chuckled as he watched Su Ran devour her food without a care for appearances, and said slowly:

"I wonder if you have any other requests? You can tell me them all at once."

With a lobster in her right hand and a bottle of spring water in her left, she looked up at Shen Gui.

She can actually make demands? This person is worth more than she imagined.

She quickly wiped her mouth and pointed to the food on the table, saying:

"I need to eat something similar to these every day; they can't skimp on me."

"Of course, of course."

The waiter standing nearby was already stunned; this amount of food represented one and a half months' worth of their restaurant's reserves.

This woman actually wanted to eat this every day, and Shen Gui actually agreed to it all.

He quickly walked to Shen Gui's side and whispered a reminder:

"Shen Gui, are you crazy? Even if you're rich, you can't waste money like this."

These words reached Su Ran's ears as she wolfed down her food. She immediately looked up and said to the waiter with disdain:

"I can have children, that's all he owes me. Can you have children?"

The waiter wiped the cold sweat from his brow and nodded slightly, saying:

"Then I really can't."

"Good to know, we women have a very hard life."

Shen Gui's gaze swept between the two of them before he spoke up at the opportune moment: "Miss Su is right, this is all compensation that should be given."

"You're at least a man, barely good enough for me."

Su Ran smiled broadly and asked:

"Don't worry, I'm quite self-aware. It's a blind date, so tell me what your requirements are."

When Su Ran asked him a question, Shen Gui thought for a moment and said:

"My parents are urging me to get married. They hope our two families can meet today. If we feel it's a good match, let's get engaged after the meeting."

Su Ran wiped the grease from her mouth, picked up her bag, took out a small mirror, and looked at her face.

To be honest, this request wasn't difficult, since her parents were just unemployed, but she still wanted to be reserved.

"Well... my family isn't like yours, where you do nothing all day. If you want to meet, you'll have to make a special time to go out."

"It's okay, if not today, then tomorrow. I'm quite satisfied with you."

Su Ran smiled when she heard this. From childhood to adulthood, she had always been the most beautiful person among those around her, and every man who had seen her was very satisfied with her.

"Okay, I'll go back and discuss it with my parents, and I'll let you know tomorrow."

Shen Gui: "Okay, how about I give you a ride?"

"No, I need to go back to the company. Wouldn't it be embarrassing for them if you went with me?"

"Alright."

Su Ran glanced at the unfinished food on the table and swallowed again.

"Do you still want to eat these dishes?"

"These were ordered especially for you; I've already eaten."

"You should have said so earlier," Su Ran quickly called the waiter over for a takeout box. "Quick, pack all this food up for me, I want to take it home."

Su Ran glanced at Shen Gui, who was smiling the whole time, and tentatively asked:

"I'd like to order some more dishes to take home for my parents to try. Is that a problem?"

"You are such a filial and good woman, of course there is no problem."

"That's good."

Su Ran immediately grabbed the menu again and started ordering rapidly until she had used up the restaurant's entire monthly quota.

After ordering, she picked up the takeout box and left without even saying goodbye.

Su Ran waited until she turned a corner, then quickly took out her phone and opened Sweetfish.

"Secondhand food, price no bargaining, see attached photo."

Looking at the constant stream of message notifications popping up on her phone, Su Ran was practically grinning from ear to ear.

I never expected such great results from our first meeting. The days that followed were so sweet!

Inside the restaurant, the waiter handed the bill to Shen Gui and sighed.

"Shen Gui, have you lost your mind? You actually like that kind of woman?"

"Hey, my parents are pressuring me, I can't help it."

"If you're really in a hurry, dump that girl right now, and I'll introduce you to my sister."

"You little brat, after all these years of friendship, you actually think you can get ahead of me?"

The waiter gritted his teeth and said, "If you feel wronged, let's split things up. My sister calls me brother, and I call my sister sister."

Shen Gui burst into laughter upon hearing this.

"Alright, everything's settled now, we can talk about it later."

Seeing that Shen Gui was about to leave, the waiter became anxious:

"My sister is definitely prettier than that girl, believe me."

"I believe you!"

Shen Gui left behind a dashing figure, hands in his pockets, and walked home.

In a corner unnoticed by anyone, a picture of a guy on a blind date suddenly appeared on the restaurant wall:

Amidst the everyday joys of life, I seek a good partner.

For serious blind dates, come to the castle!
