When reading novels, Fu Erdie often thought that if the apocalypse came, she could only wait to die. Driving? She can't. Navigation? She can't. Cooking? She can't. Stamina?... She doesn't even need zombies; a sudden drop in temperature would give her a cold and fever, leading to her demise. As a good-for-nothing in the new century, she sincerely hoped the world would remain prosperous and free from disasters, allowing her to make a living drawing illustrations at home while taking it easy.

Then, fate played a joke on her. After a continuous drizzle, the world mutated. The smell of decay from zombies and zombified plants filled the air. Looking out the window from the tenth floor, panicked crowds, crashed and stalled vehicles blocking the roads, the now blood-stained noodle shop she frequented... Everything pulled Fu Erdie back to reality from her sliver of fantasy. The world had truly changed.

Fu Erdie decided to go out and find her family, taking a gamble on whether she would become a zombie or an ability user. She mustered her courage, opened the door, then retreated and closed it. The zombie neighbors in the corridor were too terrifying!

Fighting zombies was impossible; she could only wait for death. Coincidentally, she had a lot of food stored at home, enough for a month. Her fate, however, seemed to be limited to dying now or dying in a month. She chose the latter and prepared for the impending water and power outages.

Day one, everything was normal. Day two, everything was normal. Day three, everything was normal. ...

A month later, it was time to pay the utility bills. The internet was down; she couldn't pay. The entire building was dark. But her room remained brightly lit. The toilet still flushed, the gas still worked for her luxurious baths, and the small kumquats, chili peppers, and green onions on her balcony grew vigorously at an unnatural rate.

Fu Erdie suddenly realized that she hadn't mutated, her apartment had?!

Reading Tips:

The protagonist's partner is not the house! It's a human named Sang Wenhao.

The first 17 chapters are heavier and realistic, with chapter 18 as a turning point towards a heartwarming farming style. The general tone afterward is fighting, farming, infrastructure building, plant cultivation, and more fighting.

The title was finalized after much deliberation and won't be changed again. The protagonist's "lying flat" was only because she planned to wait for death when there was no hope. Later, due to the apartment's mutation and various situations, she gained hope and started to fight for survival.
