Doomsday Descends: My Villainous Destiny

The Su family of four got into the car and left the quarantine area under military escort. Even now, Su Zhenguo and Yuan Lu felt like they were in a dream.

Just ten minutes ago, they were worried about their survival. Now, they were guests of honor, escorted by the military!

The drastic changes in their lives were too overwhelming!

Su Zhenguo eagerly asked, “Xiao Ya, what's going on?” How did you get out of Jiangjing? And why is Lieutenant General Meng so respectful to you?”

Su Ya smiled and replied, “Dad, didn't I tell you before that I have a boyfriend in school?”

“Yes, Qin Jun, right?” Su Zhenguo nodded. 

Su Ya had mentioned it to him before. Su Zhenguo had planned to meet his future son-in-law at school, but he never found the time before the zombie outbreak plunged the world into chaos.

Su Yue's eyes widened with curiosity. “Sis, is the young master the officer mentioned your boyfriend?”

“Yes.”

Su Ya answered softly, “You know State Councilor Qin Yuan, right? Qin Jun is his only son.”

Inside the car, silence fell, and everyone was speechless. Su Zhenguo's eyes widened, his mouth open, but he couldn't say a word.

State Councilor Qin Yuan? Of course, he knew who Qin Yuan was! As an official, Su Zhenguo had attended numerous meetings studying Qin Yuan's speeches and directives.

He had even written an article on “Studying the Three Guiding Principles of State Councilor Qin Yuan,” which earned him a commendation from Anyang City. It was one of the few highlights of his career.

But to Su Zhenguo, Qin Yuan was merely a political symbol, a distant name, someone from a completely different world.

He couldn’t even dream of meeting the State Councilor, let alone imagine that his daughter was dating his son!

This revelation was too surreal, leaving Su Zhenguo and his wife utterly shocked and speechless. They felt their hearts pounding, needing some time to calm down.

Su Yue, however, was less affected. At her age, she didn’t fully grasp the significance of power and influence.

She was simply happy that her family was safe and sound, that no one was hurt. For this innocent girl, that was the greatest happiness.

Looking at her pure and lovely sister, Su Ya’s heart stirred. Although she was Qin Jun’s woman now, her position was not secure. Given Qin Jun’s status, many women would likely try to win his favor in the future.

Su Ya always felt a sense of crisis.

Now, seeing that her sister was as beautiful as herself, she thought that if Su Yue could also join Qin Jun’s harem, their positions would be more secure.

Su Ya didn’t think she was pushing her sister into a pit of fire. In peaceful times, doing this might be seen as shameful and greedy, even selling out her sister, but unfortunately, now was not peaceful those times.

In this era devoid of any morality or ethics, Su Ya’s thoughts were clear. Without background or strength, ordinary people were worse off than pigs.

If she and her sister could secure a place beside Qin Jun, the Su family would live well, at least not worrying about food and clothing.

But if she fell out of favor, the Su family would immediately suffer. Especially Su Yue, a beautiful girl without background or strength, her fate was predictable.

Becoming a plaything for the powerful would be a good outcome. Worse, she could be turned into a slave by thugs, living a life worse than death.

Being with Qin Jun would be much better. At least Qin Jun treated those around him well, and he was handsome and not as perverted or violent as other powerful men.

That was a good fate in these times.

However, Su Ya didn’t plan to send her sister to Qin Jun right away. Her parents needed time to adjust…

…

A month had passed since the apocalypse began and the situation had finally become clear. Over 3.7 billion people had died worldwide, replaced by 3.7 billion creatures called zombies.

Most of them roamed the cities, but many began spreading out, crazily hunting for living humans to bite and turn the world into a zombie paradise.

The military had suffered significant losses, with surviving forces occupying territories, forming the beginnings of warlord regimes.

Those who had hoped the government could restore order were completely disillusioned.

After this catastrophe, the government collapsed entirely. Forget about controlling regions—the government itself no longer existed.

Survivors built shelters and bases in the wild or the outskirts, huddling together for warmth. In the apocalypse, it was nearly impossible to survive alone.

Initially, shelters were peaceful, with people following old norms, respecting the elderly, and caring for women and children.

But soon, hunger revealed how fragile morality and human rights were. Evolvers with absolute power became the ruling class of the shelters, getting first dibs on food, resources, and even women.

Ordinary people without strength became the underclass. They couldn't get enough to eat, surviving on the leftovers of the evolvers. Even these scraps had to be fought over.

Their wives and daughters became another kind of resource, to be traded or used to please the evolvers.

They had no choice and those who dared to resist died. Some evolvers killed them outright. Those more merciful exiled the troublemakers from the shelters, where they soon became zombie food.

One had to marvel at humanity's adaptability. From a highly civilized society to a brutally savage one, it took only a month for people to adjust…

This truly was a desperate era.
