Chapter 1 Rebirth
"ah……"
Awakened from a deep sleep by a nightmare.
Turning on the room light, Meng Yuanyuan was shocked by the familiar layout of the room.
"Didn't I get killed by the bomb? Why am I still alive..."
She tried to recall it, but it was still fresh in her mind.
When the apocalypse came, robbers broke into the house to steal food. In order to survive, the family pushed her out and gave her to the evildoers.
After a few days, Meng Yuanyuan was tortured so much that she finally couldn't bear it anymore, turned on the gas and died with the robbers...
"Am I alive again, reborn?"
Meng Yuanyuan hurriedly picked up the mobile phone beside her pillow and opened it.
"It's actually April 13, 2030? Half a year before the end of the world?"
"Is it a dream?"
She twisted her leg hard, and the sharp pain confirmed that what she saw was real.
The wounds on his body were healed.
Her attacker was gone.
Where is the stepmother? Where is my brother? Where is your biological father? Are they alive too?
"Alive?..."
"It's best to live, you bunch of scum, just wait!"
"Boom~"
At this moment, the door of the room was kicked open, and the sound carried the dust on the roof and fell quietly.
"Why don't you get up yet? Haohao has to leave for school and breakfast hasn't been prepared yet. Do you want to starve him to death?"
"Also, there are piles of dirty clothes in the bathroom. Are you blind or have your arm broken? When will you finish washing and go to work...
"By the way, when you pass by the property and pay the property fee and water and electricity bill, you can't see that the reminder note is posted on the door?"
Meng Yuanyuan looked up at the door. Standing in front of her was a woman of about forty years old.
She put her hands on her hips, wore heavy makeup, her lips were painted as bright red as blood, and her slender triangular eyes revealed bitterness and meanness.
This is Meng Yuanyuan's stepmother, Lin Lanhua, a woman with a bit of beauty but a snake-like heart.
She and Meng's father got married two years ago. When they got married, they had a son named Lin Hao, who is now 16 years old and in the first grade of high school.
And the reason why the stepmother has such an attitude is all thanks to her biological father, that man who only knows gambling, drinking, eating, drinking, prostitution and gambling every day, Meng Zhiguo!
Meng Yuanyuan worked hard to maintain this ineffective marriage for her biological father. Not only did she work hard without complaint, but she also handed over a small amount of her monthly salary to her stepmother to supplement the family income.
But instead of gaining her stepmother's respect, doing so made her hate herself even more. It seemed that everything was taken for granted.
Rolling eyes, name-calling, contempt and merciless ridicule, even fists and kicks.
Of course, these are not the most important things. What makes her even more chilling is the betrayal of her family after the apocalypse. When faced with life and death, her own father has no scruples in passing on his own flesh and blood to evildoers.
The stepmother nodded and bowed to the bad guys, saying bluntly that Meng Yuanyuan was just a toy. When you have had enough fun, you can just dispose of it casually. There is no need to send it back. It is also a waste of food.
Meng Yuanyuan still can't figure out what she did wrong to deserve such treatment by them.
"Let me tell you, Meng Yuanyuan, I have already contacted Mr. Jin. This is the room card of Qingshan Hotel. After your blind date at noon, you can go directly to 502 to book a room."
With that said, Lin Lanhua walked to the bed, took out a gold-gilded room card from her pocket, and threw it in Meng Yuanyuan's face.
"Dress up well when you go. He is the son of the chairman of Dahua Group. If we can hook him up, our family will become famous in the future. Do you understand?"
"I've dropped my words today. If you go there and there's no spark between you and Mr. Jin, I'll divorce your dad. Then you two losers can live on your own!"
"Did you hear that?"
"Look at that useless figure of yours. You look exactly like your biological father. I get angry when I see you two. If you hadn't been pretty, I would have kicked you out long ago..."
Before her stepmother could finish speaking, Meng Yuanyuan stood up suddenly with a cold face, grabbed her hair, opened her arms from left to right, and slapped her hard.
"Lin, why do you humiliate me? Who are you? If you dare to speak to me like this again, I will kill you..."
Meng Yuanyuan's eyes were red and she was roaring hysterically, as if she wanted to vent all the resentment she had accumulated over the past few years.
"You dare? Bitch, let go! I've rebelled against you and you dare to hit me..." Lin Lanhua screamed in pain and struggled hard to get rid of Meng Yuanyuan.
She never imagined that this girl who was as docile as a sheep would dare to hit her, even to death.
"I'll beat you to death, I'll strangle you to death..."
"Ah...help...help!"
Meng Yuanyuan's eyes were red and she was gnashing her teeth. Even though her clothes were torn by her stepmother, she did not stop at all. Instead, she pressed her stepmother on the bed and grabbed her neck with both hands and pinched her harder and harder.
Lin Guilan was already thin and unable to resist, and her breathing became increasingly difficult.
She slapped Meng Yuanyuan's arm desperately, trying to break it open.
However, in vain, to no avail.
She stared into a pair of frightened eyes, her pupils slowly dilated, and her eyes rolled back.
Seeing that her stepmother was about to die, Meng Yuanyuan regained her senses and suddenly changed her mind.
"We can't let these scumbags die like this."
"Once she dies, I will definitely be punished by law. That would be more gain than loss."
"Besides, the end of the world is coming soon, and there are many things that need to be prepared. Once you go to jail, you will have to wait for death in the future."
"No, this is absolutely not okay."
"But these people must die, and they must pay the price they deserve."
"What on earth can we do to avoid being noticed?"
"Huh? Yes, in my last life, in my memory, on May 1st, a tourist bus crashed into a mountain. No one in the bus survived. How about signing them up?"
"Yes, that's it!"
…
From this moment on, Meng Yuanyuan completely changed. The silly girl who had resigned herself to the situation, and the cowardly girl who let others take advantage of her were gone forever.
Now she only has hatred, revenge, and survival in her heart!
Letting go of her stepmother's hands, Meng Yuanyuan arranged her clothes and hair, turned around and went to the bathroom, filled a basin of cold water and poured it on her stepmother.
"Pa~"
The cold water stimulated the skin and woke up Lin Guilan, who was originally in a coma. She opened her eyes and looked at Meng Yuanyuan in horror, swallowing her saliva.
"Are you, you, are you crazy? What are you going to do? Don't come here, stay away from me, I am your mother! How could you do this to me...!"
Meng Yuanyuan chuckled and threw the basin aside.
"I'm really sorry. I've been having a tantrum recently. You'd better stay away from me, otherwise I won't be able to control myself!"
As she said that, she raised her hands, pretending to pounce forward again.
"Ah~"
Lin Guilan was frightened and hurriedly rolled and crawled out of the door, fleeing in panic.
"Madman! Madman..." The fearful voice gradually faded away.
Meng Yuanyuan took a deep breath to calm down her inner anger, turned around, locked the door, and went to the bathroom to wash up.
Looking at the fair skin, delicate facial features, and slender neck in the mirror, she couldn't help but raise her hand and touch her face.
She had a feeling that she had not seen this face for many years. After the end of the world, everyone was short of food and clothing, unkempt, and no one cared about what they had become.
Meng Yuanyuan clearly remembers the scene after the disaster.
It was October 3, 2030, at 3:02 in the morning.
A sudden earthquake occurred without warning on the west coast of the Pacific. The highest magnitude reached 11.8 and lasted for 5 minutes and 09 seconds. After that, more than 300 aftershocks of magnitude 9 or above occurred.
Strong earthquakes caused landslides and tsunamis.
The island country on the west coast and Country H were hit by dozens of super tsunamis in one day, causing countless casualties and nearly annihilating the country.
Although China is far away from the epicenter, coastal cities were still severely damaged. Sea levels rose by an average of 10 meters, and many provinces became a vast ocean.
What followed were volcanic eruptions, nuclear leaks, typhoons exceeding level 16, and acid rain.
It rained for more than three months at a time. The sky seemed to be torn apart, and the rain poured down, forming the largest flood in history. 60% of the earth's land was submerged.
The sun was also blocked by volcanic ash, the world fell into darkness, water and electricity were cut off, and all mankind was shrouded in the fear of the end of the world.
However, before those who survived had time to rejoice, something even more terrible happened again.
Extreme cold, extreme heat, melting glaciers, viruses, sandstorms, etc. struck one after another. In three years, human civilization was completely destroyed, mutant beasts ran rampant, and post-apocalyptic chaos was everywhere.
And those who were lucky enough to survive were like walking zombies, living a life of darkness and darkness.
However, the main reason why Meng Yuanyuan's family can survive after the apocalypse is a ring in her father's hand, which is a relic left by her mother.
The secret of the ring was accidentally overheard by Meng Yuanyuan. It is said that there is a space inside, with fields, rivers, farming, breeding, and a three-story villa.
She didn't know the specifics. She only knew that her life was worse than that of a dog during those three years, until the robbers came to her door. In order to save herself, her father sent her into the hands of the bad guys. The seven robbers tortured her for a whole week.
The person taking the lead was Mr. Jin.
Those people were not human at all, and she had to take revenge.
She wants to take back everything that belongs to her, including the ring and house left by her mother.
