Chapter 3: The Wonders of Space



"What? You want me to kneel down and apologize to this lousy photo, and you want me to give you shares in your Gu Group? That's outrageous! I won't agree to that. Honey, let's go."

Gu Jianshu's eyes were practically blazing with anger. If he weren't outmatched by Gu Mingyue, he would definitely pull out his belt and beat this unfilial daughter to death right now!

Seeing that he was about to leave, Gu Mingyue walked briskly to the door, opened it, and made a gesture to welcome him away.

Thinking of how emaciated her son had become from being tormented by illness.

Lin Yue'e grabbed Gu Jianshu's sleeve tightly and forcefully pulled him back.

"I agree, for the sake of my only son, I agree." She wrapped her arms around Gu Jianshu, trying to stop him from leaving, looking at him almost pleadingly.

"Husband, I'm begging you, please agree. We've wronged Sister Fang. Apologizing and kowtowing is nothing. 3% of the shares isn't much. I'm begging you, Xiaotian is my life. If he dies, I can't live either!"

After Lin Yue'e's tearful plea, Gu Jianshu reluctantly stayed.

Gu Mingyue respectfully placed the portrait on the coffee table and looked at Gu Jianshu and the other person.

Who wants to go first?

Gu Jianshu and Lin Yue'e looked at each other, both hesitant. They had agreed, but they had been living a life of luxury for many years.

Under the watchful eyes of three young men, the idea of ​​slapping someone and kneeling down was still a bit too much for him to bear.

"Hurry up! My sister's patience is limited." Ever since he got a 1% share from Gu Mingyue, Gu Zihao has turned into a lapdog and returned to Gu Mingyue's side.

He is Gu Mingyue's younger brother. Once she calms down, those shares and money will be inherited by him!

Gu Qinxue despised her brother's pathetic behavior. He was already 18 years old but still treated Gu Mingyue with the utmost respect, showing no backbone whatsoever! He would kiss whoever gave him a bone, living like a dog at such a young age!

As a mother, she cared more about her child. With a determined heart, Lin Yue'e raised her hand and slapped herself hard across the face.

Snap! Snap...

It hurt! It hurt terribly. She endured the spectators' stares and glared resentfully at the three young people next to the portrait.

She must remember this humiliation.

Once Xiaotian recovers, she will definitely find someone to kill those three little beasts!

The popping sounds were as cheerful as firecrackers in Gu Mingyue's ears.

She would never have had the heart to force these people to slap them or kneel down.

It was ten years of being deceived, betrayed, and tormented in the apocalypse that shaped her into a paranoid and madwoman.

In the later stages of the apocalypse, people affectionately called her "the blind madwoman"!

Blood slowly seeped from the corner of Lin Yue'e's mouth, and the sight of this blood brought indescribable pleasure to the three siblings!

Next up was Gu Jianlin, who stiffly knelt down before his ex-wife's portrait and quickly kowtowed ten times.

Gu Qinxue looked at the father who should have given her fatherly love, now kneeling in front of her mother's portrait. She felt a mix of emotions and even thought that her sister was going too far. Wasn't she pushing her father further and further away?

I wonder if her father would lower himself to save her illegitimate child if she were ever in danger in the future?

"Hmph, you three remember to go to the hospital the day after tomorrow," Gu Jianlin said irritably, patting his dirty suit pants.

"Dad, my mom can't hear you down there!" Gu Mingyue said slowly, a devilish smile on her face.

Gu Zihao was horrified. Was his sister really going to completely break with their father?

Gu Jianlin glared at Gu Mingyue, his eyes blazing with fury that he would have burned her alive. He should have strangled her the moment he saw she was a girl, and now she dared to bully her father.

Lin Yue'e gently tugged at his sleeve, indicating that he had already done so much and should continue to persevere.

Thinking about his father-in-law's current position, he glared at Gu Mingyue fiercely.

Bang! Bang! Bang...

The farce is finally over.

Gu Mingyue didn't want those two scoundrels to continue polluting the eyes of her mother's portrait, so she drove them all away.

Gu Mingyue was left alone in the empty living room. She put away the portrait and went to the kitchen.

The braised pork ribs in the pot have gone completely cold.

Crispy and spicy fish slices, crunchy oyster sauce lettuce, savory salted egg yolk chicken wings, cauliflower coated in tomato sauce, and boiled pork slices floating in red oil—these were dishes she had carefully prepared in her past life, all of which were favorites of her three siblings.

Now it all belongs to her alone!

Gu Mingyue took out the slightly cooled, perfectly cooked cake from the refrigerator, and her eyes lit up instantly!

Light 24 candles and blow them out quickly.

Then, I couldn't wait to cut into the creamy frosting, revealing the cake base filled with fruit.

One bite, and the aroma of milk fills your entire mouth.

This is amazing! She wouldn't trade this bite of cake for a concentrated energy crystal from a level 10 Dark Domain monster!

Ten years! A whole ten years since she'd had cake; she'd almost forgotten what cake tasted like!

Two months later, a meteor shower fell on Earth, causing global environmental degradation, tsunamis, floods, tornadoes, droughts, and severe cold, among other things.

There are also all sorts of humanoid monsters and bloodthirsty beasts appearing one after another.

Even more terrifying are the dark areas formed after the meteorites landed...

In the future, even the coarse, dry steamed buns that scrape your throat will be considered delicacies, reserved for those with superpowers. Ordinary people would fight over them to survive, even resorting to gnawing on tree bark, catching cockroaches, and eating ants!

Gu Mingyue finished the last piece of pork rib, touched her slightly bulging belly, and smiled contentedly.

I haven't eaten this much in a long time. I never realized that happiness is such a simple thing!

There are still two months until the end of the world begins!

She wanted to stockpile supplies like crazy, so she would never have to experience hunger again.

She got up and went to the mirror. The woman in the mirror was beautiful and had a small black mole between her slender eyebrows. This was her secret weapon that allowed her to thrive in the apocalypse—space!

When she was a child, she was playing in the Gu family's large garden when a sesame-sized stone fell from the sky and hit her right between the eyebrows. From then on, she had a secret.

She will keep this secret to herself forever. No one but the dead will ever know that she has such a unique space!

Close your eyes, silently repeat, "Go in."

When Gu Mingyue opened her eyes again, the scenery around her had completely changed, indicating that she was now in another space.

Before us, a thin mist, rippling with waves, divides the space into two parts.

One of the pieces was a 100-acre metal floor she was standing on. Space and time were frozen here, and supplies wouldn't expire. The space above her head could extend infinitely and be stacked up indefinitely.

On the other side of the mist lies 100 acres of fertile black soil, covered with tender green grass, a lush and vibrant expanse that looks full of life.

A huge countdown timer appeared in the middle of the mist, indicating that the living creatures here had 2 hours and 24 minutes left to stay.

Below the countdown, there is a halo.

Inside the aperture is a search box, and below the search box is a map depicting the entire Blue Planet, including its mountains, rivers, cities, and shops.

This is a spatial teleportation map given to Gu Mingyue by the beginner space. It can only be used to travel back and forth between the starting point and the destination once a day. It is Gu Mingyue's life-saving tool!

"Master!" A pleasant baritone voice came from behind, ethereal and clear, as if just hearing it could soothe all kinds of worries in one's heart.
