Ha! I'll Be The Villain In The Apocalypse!

Lin Yue was isekai’d into a brutal survival game world, becoming an "Average Rank" resident in a city designed to be a graveyard. In the original plot, the Holy Mother FL would spend the 2-hour food window crying and sharing her bread, only to be eaten when the zombies were released. The Heroic ML would try to fight the government's drones, dying a "noble" death in a hail of gunfire. Lin Yue: “I’m sorry, I—first don't want to die for a 'noble cause,' and second, I don't want to be hungry. So I choose to be the one who leaves everyone else behind. Excuse me, goodbye.” The speakers on every street corner crackled with the cold, distorted voice of the Public Announcer: “Attention, trash of Sector 4. The gates are open. You have two hours to scavenge before the automated purge begins. Beyond the entrance is nothing but a slaughterhouse. T-minus 118 minutes. Access will be denied. Survivors will be terminated.” Most people were paralyzed by the sound of that mechanical voice and the sight of the ticking timer on their skin. But as Lin Yue looked at her modest two-bedroom apartment and her few millions in "Average Rank" savings, her eyes didn't fill with tears. They shone with the predatory light of a professional hoarder. She sharpened her kitchen knife, ignoring the booming announcer to focus on her mental checklist: Lightbulbs. Water. Blanket. Ammo. Efficient pathing. “What a perfect opportunity to loot the good stuff while the 'Heroes' are busy dying for the 'Main Quest'!” “...” The city-wide broadcast system was designed to incite panic and despair, but it never expected a resident who would treat a literal death-march as a chance to upgrade her apartment's interior design.

The Spoiled Young Lady Who Married a Military Officer

Modern medical virtuoso Su Tang transmigrates into the body of a 1970s Shanghai belle. Fearing for her safety, her parents send her—along with their entire fortune—to the military family compound. The original owner of this body had been spoiled and willful, causing trouble everywhere she went. In the end, she was divorced and met a tragic fate. Familiar with the plot, Su Tang knows that only one person can protect her—the husband she has never met. She prepares herself mentally, but when she finally arrives at the compound and sees the cold-faced, rugged man standing before her, she still swallows nervously. He looks so fierce. He wouldn’t hit someone, would he? … Lu Xiao’s marriage was arranged by his parents. He had never met Su Tang. All he knew was that his wife was a pampered young lady who had never lifted a finger. He despised such petty-bourgeois habits and held no favorable impression of her. On the day Su Tang steps into the family compound with her marriage certificate, Lu Xiao takes her luggage with a cold expression—only for something soft and warm to be pressed into his hands. His little wife stands on her tiptoes, carefully tying a hand-knitted scarf around his neck. “I heard the northwest winds are like knives,” she says softly in a gentle Wu dialect. “So I specially added some cashmere.” Lu Xiao’s Adam’s apple bobs. The tips of his ears quietly turn red as he picks up all her belongings. City girls were good at firing sugar-coated bullets. He definitely wasn’t falling for it. But later… Every time Su Tang spoke to him in that soft, coquettish tone, Lu Xiao found himself wishing he could climb to the heavens and pluck the stars just for her.
