"This medal belongs to the most important girl in my life. Without her support, I wouldn't have this moment of glory!"
At the awards ceremony of the National College Student E-sports Competition, the newly crowned champion Su Zicheng reached out his hand to the audience under the spotlight.
The screams of the female college students in the audience almost broke the stadium. Lu Sheng sat in the excited crowd, his mind in a daze.
Her brows were furrowed, and she was drenched in sweat, as if she were trapped in a nightmare.
Didi.
The notification sound of a news report on her phone pulled her back to reality from her confusion.
The browser is pushing the latest headlines.
A train carrying a large quantity of prohibited chemicals derailed and exploded in a state of Country M.
February 15, 2023...
Lu Sheng pinched her arm hard, the sharp pain causing her to unconsciously bite her lip.
She was reborn, reborn ten days before the apocalypse!
No one could have predicted that this seemingly distant explosion would plunge the world into its darkest hour within ten days.
The acid rain from the explosion quickly corroded large areas of land and water sources, causing the dormant volcano, which had been dormant for a century, to erupt again.
Extreme heat destroyed ecosystems, glaciers melted, and countless ancient viruses and bacteria that had been dormant for thousands of years once again ruled the world.
Modern cities and human civilization crumble rapidly in the face of severe natural disasters.
Zombies roam freely, and mutated plants and animals ravage the land, leaving humanity as the weakest link in the food chain...
She survived for three years in this terrifying apocalypse, escaping the clutches of zombies, only to die at the hands of the scumbag she had admired throughout her youth...
"Lu Sheng, is Su Zicheng going to confess his love to you in front of the whole nation?!"
Lu Sheng's thoughts were interrupted by the female classmate next to him.
She turned her gaze to the spirited young man on the stage, and the confusion in her eyes suddenly turned into a deep-seated hatred.
Even during the difficult period of survival in the apocalypse, she still vividly remembered the humiliation of this moment.
Su Zicheng was indeed going to confess his feelings, but the object of his affections was not Lu Sheng, but Bai Shuangshuang, the most beautiful girl in the department!
Everyone at Peking University knows that Lu Sheng is Su Zicheng's simp. She saves money and works three jobs a day to buy Su Zicheng the best computer and peripherals, just to fulfill Su Zicheng's dream of winning the national championship.
She wears cheap women's clothing from Pinduoduo that costs 30 yuan a piece, but doesn't hesitate to buy Su Zicheng trendy brands that cost thousands of yuan.
Lu Sheng was like a fertilizer, squeezing herself dry to nourish Su Zicheng until he was smooth and shiny.
In the previous life, when Su Zicheng said those words in a stadium with tens of thousands of people, everyone, including Lu Sheng, thought that this bitter love was finally going to come to fruition. However, Su Zicheng took Bai Shuangshuang's hand in front of everyone.
Lu Sheng became the biggest joke at Peking University that spring.
Everyone laughed at her, saying that a sycophant like her would die a horrible death, and that in the end she would have nothing.
Fortunately, the laughter didn't last long before everyone was forced to struggle for survival in the apocalypse.
Three years into the apocalypse, Lu Sheng's best friend, Sun Tiantian, was suffering from depression and wanted to die. She cut off her own flesh and lied to Lu Sheng, saying that she had found an animal carcass, just so that Lu Sheng could eat a bite of meat and live a few more days.
But the aroma of meat attracted two vicious wolves, Su Zicheng and Bai Shuangshuang.
In order to fill Bai Shuangshuang's stomach, Su Zicheng dismembered Sun Tiantian in front of Lu Sheng and personally put her flesh and blood into the pot that Bai Shuangshuang was boiling.
Lu Sheng rushed forward to fight Su Zicheng, but Su Zicheng pinned him down in the stinking swamp and Bai Shuangshuang smashed him to death with mutated, hardened potatoes!
"Su Zicheng, I'm back."
Lu Sheng looked up, his eyes filled with frost.
...
Not wanting to see that scumbag and bitch disgusting her on stage, Lu Sheng went backstage alone after the awards ceremony.
The members of the Peking University e-sports team were packing up when they saw Lu Sheng arrive. They exchanged knowing glances and left, leaving the chance for Lu Sheng and Su Zicheng to be alone.
"Lu Sheng, what brings you here?" Su Zicheng was taken aback for a moment, but quickly put on a warm smile again.
Lu Sheng was completely infatuated with Su Zicheng's feigned sunny and gentle nature, becoming a love-struck fool that even a dog would shake its head at.
But now, looking at that disgusting smiling face, Lu Sheng wished he could smash his dog's head with a keyboard right away.
The time is not right yet.
Even before the apocalypse arrives, one must still abide by the law and order, otherwise, once arrested and imprisoned, she will have nowhere to run.
Besides, letting those two vile women, Su Zicheng and Bai Shuangshuang, die a quick and painless death would be too good for them.
Living in constant fear in the apocalypse, abandoning their dignity for survival and becoming stray dogs scrambling for food, is the best revenge against them.
Now that Lu Sheng has been given the chance to restart the game, she will use these ten days to make thorough preparations.
From now on, she'll make sure Sun Tiantian lives a life of luxury, and then she'll teach those two good-for-nothings a lesson!
However, firstly, some start-up capital is needed.
"Five hundred thousand, transfer it to my card before tomorrow morning." Lu Sheng took out his phone and sent the card number to Su Zicheng's WeChat.
Su Zicheng was taken aback, assuming that Lu Sheng was jealous, and got up to put his arm around Lu Sheng's shoulder.
"Don't be upset. You know Bai Shuangshuang's cousin is the manager of the KT team. I have to get past him if I want to join the team. My relationship with her is just a charade. I know in my heart that you are the best to me. As long as I achieve good results in professional competitions, I will announce your relationship to the official team as soon as possible."
"If you don't receive payment by tomorrow morning, the story of you hiring nightclub hostesses to slander your roommate for soliciting prostitution will be sent to all esports-related public accounts."
Lu Sheng was too lazy to waste words with him.
Six months ago, Su Zicheng and his roommate Feng Lei had a minor disagreement when they were competing for a high scholarship.
Harboring resentment, Su Zicheng was jealous of Feng Lei's scholarship and successful postgraduate recommendation. He spent two thousand yuan to hire a hostess to cause a scene at school, ultimately causing Feng Lei to lose his postgraduate recommendation.
With such a huge scandal leaked out, no team would want Su Zicheng.
"Lu Sheng, stop fooling around."
Su Zicheng's face showed a hint of impatience, but his tone remained coaxing.
“510,000.” Lu Sheng had no patience to waste any more words with him. “If you dawdle for even one more sentence, I’ll add another 10,000.”
“Lu Sheng! If you don’t listen to me…” Su Zicheng’s face darkened.
520,000.
As Lu Sheng spoke, she deftly packed up Su Zicheng's computer and peripherals and carried them in her hands.
She bought all of these with her hard-earned money, and she could even recoup some of it by selling them on the secondhand market.
Realizing Lu Sheng was serious, Su Zicheng panicked. "Where would I get that much money?! Are you crazy?!"
"The champion's prize money is 300,000." Lu Sheng glanced at Su Zicheng, then put away the nearly new mousepad. Even a small thing is still something.
Enraged, Su Zicheng grabbed Lu Sheng by the collar. "What about the remaining two hundred thousand? Am I supposed to steal it? Rob it?"
Lu Sheng's eyes turned cold. He grabbed Su Zicheng's wrist with his other hand and kicked him hard in the lower body.
