2045!

At first, everyone thought it was a joke!

"Ruan Ruan, wait for me at home. I have a company party today, I'll be home late."

"I left some food for you in the thermos. Just order it. Love, my husband."

Jiang Ruan sat on the sofa, her belly protruding, staring blankly at the TV. Suddenly, a message came through and brought her back to her senses. "This news... I'm actually back! Back to a year before the apocalypse!"

In her previous life, Jiang Ruan had a very good relationship with her husband, Du Ning, so good that she thought she had met her soulmate and the greatest haven of her life.

So when Du Ning told her that the company was facing a financial crisis and needed to use money from her family to help, Jiang Ruan sold the house her parents had given her before their marriage without hesitation to support him.

Just as Jiang Ruan had resolved Du Ning's financial crisis, he was informed that Du Ning's parents had been in a car accident and urgently needed money for hospitalization.

Du Ning knelt on the ground and begged Jiang Ruan to save his life because he knew that Jiang Ruan had a jade pendant that had once been bought by an antique collector for 1 billion yuan.

Jiang Ruan was incredibly soft-hearted. She wiped away Du Ning's tears, handed him the jade pendant, and once again helped him out of his predicament.

At that time, Jiang Ruan was already six months pregnant.

Actually, Du Ning and Jiang Ruan were not meant to be together. It just so happened that Jiang Ruan's grandmother passed away, and she was secretly grieving by the lake on campus when Du Ning saw her.

With his handsome and refined appearance, coupled with his eloquence and popularity, he quickly won Jiang Ruan's favor.

After a while, the two naturally got together.

Despite the mismatch in family background and other factors, Jiang Ruan still managed to persuade her parents to agree to their marriage.

Because the parents also felt that a poor, highly educated person who was hardworking, ambitious, and eloquent would not let their daughter suffer in the future.

Ten years of marriage had long since dispelled the passion of their youth, and Du Ning had gone from an unknown office worker to a CEO worth hundreds of millions.

Jiang Ruan had worried that Du Ning might be distracted by the flowers and plants outside, but Du Ning's behavior told her that he was still the same boy he always was and still held onto his original love.

Who would have thought that Jiang Ruan, who was immersed in love, would eventually be pushed off a cliff by her beloved husband and fed to the zombies.

In the end, all I got was, "I feel disgusted just looking at you. I've never loved you."

He recalled how, after the apocalypse, he tore off his mask of hypocrisy, accompanied by that hateful beauty, mocking him, tormenting him, and hurting his family.

Their crimes are too numerous to list!

Jiang Ruan looked up at the calendar hanging in front of the living room and calculated the time. There was still a year before the apocalypse broke out. She still had time to save the day and prevent all the tragedies.

She remembered that in her previous life, when she was about eight months pregnant, Du Ning's company faced a crisis, and then his parents were in a car accident when she was about to give birth.

The day after the jade pendant was taken away, Jiang Ruan was taken to the delivery room.

Because of a lack of exercise, her lower back strength was weak, which prevented her from giving birth naturally.

Du Ning was not there when the cesarean section agreement was signed; she was still on her way.

Following Jiang Ruan's suggestion, the hospital performed the surgery, but they never saw the baby crying loudly.

Because the waiting time was too long, the child suffocated and could not be saved.

Jiang Ruan touched her belly and patted it gently. "Baby, Mommy is so bad. You suffered so much in your last life. You died before you could even see the world."

"Don't worry, in this life, Mom will not let the tragedy happen again. Mom will definitely protect you."

After talking to the baby, Jiang Ruan's eyes sharpened, and she gave a self-deprecating smile. "Du Ning, you've made me suffer so much. I hope that this time, without my help, you can still have such a smooth journey."

But now, we still have to pretend!

So, Jiang Ruan suppressed her discomfort and typed a message: "Okay, husband, I'm waiting for you to come back. Love, your wife."

Tossing her phone aside, Jiang Ruan sorted out her thoughts. She remembered that at first, earthquakes were occurring frequently across the country, and the abnormal temperature rises and falls agitated the public. Then, typhoons raged, causing considerable damage to coastal areas.

Later, acid rain appeared, and various infectious diseases emerged one after another, causing hospitals to be overcrowded.

Those who had stockpiled a lot of goods and stored them in sturdy houses couldn't stop the frenzied crowds later on, and the goods were still snapped up.

The area was in disarray, with people scattered and in disarray, resembling a scene from World War III.

Fortunately, there are only some unusual celestial phenomena and earthquakes in a few areas so far, and nothing too serious.

Having lived through her previous life, Jiang Ruan naturally knew that there was someone who stood at the top of the ivory tower, who didn't need to build houses or face strange looks or hoard goods on a large scale, yet had a continuous stream of resources to offer.

"Jade pendant!!!"

Jiang Ruan suddenly stood up. She remembered that the pattern on the man's forehead was the same as the one on the jade pendant. "Ah..." Because of the sudden movement, her stomach cramped for a while.

It took him several minutes to recover after leaning against her while bending over.

"I'm sorry, baby, Mommy was impulsive."

Jiang Ruan felt deeply sorry for the unborn baby in her womb because of the debt she owed from her previous life.

Jiang Ruan gently stroked her belly many times until the churning stopped, and then she breathed a sigh of relief.

She ran up to the second-floor bedroom and found a safe hidden in a compartment in the closet; only she knew the combination.

Jiang Ruan looked at the numbers on the screen and held up her finger. "I remember this is the password."

As soon as it was opened, a dark green oval jade pendant appeared. Because the safe was well-hidden and only she knew the combination, Jiang Ruan hadn't prepared a more luxurious and sturdy box to store it.

He placed the jade pendant in his palm, and the cool touch instantly enveloped his entire body.

Jiang Ruan examined the jade pendant several times, but still couldn't figure out its secret. "Could it be that I remembered it wrong, or that this is just a coincidence?"

Jiang Ruan put the jade pendant back in and sat on the edge of the bed. She began to think about the words her mother had told her when she gave it to her: "Ruan Ruan, this jade pendant has been passed down in our family for eleven generations, and it has been passed down to my mother's generation."

"Now, Mom is passing it on to you. If you ever encounter difficulties, tell it, and it will protect you."

"Mother……"

Jiang Ruan felt as if her mother's words were still ringing in her ears. Her eyes and chest ached terribly, and she desperately wanted to see her family.

She picked up her bag, went out, and headed towards the underground parking garage.

Before leaving, she took out the jade pendant again. She had a premonition that the jade pendant would be lost once she left, so she had to keep it with her.
