Chapter 39. (1/2)

Bai Qing Qing opened her eyes and saw the nanny standing behind a woman in a white suit.

The woman was probably in her early twenties, with a sharp and confident demeanor, her eyes cold as she looked at Bai Qing Qing.

Bai Qing Qing sat up in bed, showing no intention of getting up, and asked indifferently, “You think you know all the rules just because you barged into someone else’s room?”

“Miss Bai,” the nanny quickly introduced, “This is Miss Ye Jiahui, the daughter of the base lord.”

No wonder she dared to be so arrogant.

The daughter of the base lord is equivalent to the daughter of an emperor in ancient times—a princess.

Ye Jiahui thought Bai Qing Qing was excessively beautiful, with fair skin and a delicate, fragile appearance, like a white lotus flower. She hadn’t expected her to dare talk back.

“Miss Bai, how about we talk in the living room?” she said, glancing at her.

Bai Qing Qing yawned and said, “Miss Ye, I haven’t had enough sleep yet. Please leave.”

She remembered that Princess Ye Jiahui was one of the main supporting characters in the original story, used to highlight Bai Tian Tian’s kindness and innocence.

In the plot, Ye Jiahui was different from the cannon fodder Bai Qing Qing. She had a family, was capable, and more cunning than her good-for-nothing brother, and was deeply favored by her father.

Ye Jianguo, the lord of Yaoyang Base, originally wanted to marry Ye Jiahui to Cheng Yan, the base’s second-in-command. However, Cheng Yan said he deeply loved his deceased wife and would never remarry.

Cheng Rui arrived at Yaoyang Base, and Ye Jiahui fell in love at first sight with the handsome, fit, and capable Cheng Rui. That very night, she told her father that she would marry no one but him.

Ye Jiahui was confident she could win Cheng Rui over. However, Cheng Rui was as cold as ice, not even giving her a glance, greatly shattering her confidence.

She couldn’t understand why Cheng Rui wouldn’t be interested in her, a beauty whose family background, abilities, and looks were second to none.

When she learned that Cheng Rui had feelings for Bai Tian Tian, who had come to the Yaoyang Base, jealousy twisted and drove her mad. Not only did she despise Bai Tian Tian in every way, but she also plotted to kill her.

The apocalypse amplified humanity’s dark side. As the daughter of the base lord, killing someone, whether openly or covertly, was incredibly easy for her.

Bai Tian Tian was completely unaware that Ye Jiahui, who pretended to reconcile with her and become her friend, secretly wanted nothing more than to kill her and take her place.

Thus, the naive and saintly Bai Tian Tian unwittingly fell into Ye Jiahui’s trap, nearly dying outside the base while trying to save a group of children.

Cheng Rui’s older brother, Cheng Yan, had never been content with being second-in-command. Now his opportunity had arrived. With his team’s help, he launched a coup, using a legitimate pretext to destroy the Ye family and seize the throne.

In the increasingly treacherous late-apocalyptic world, Cheng Yan was attacked and killed by mutated creatures, and Cheng Rui, who had become the strongest person in the apocalypse, became the lord of the Yaoyang Base.

Now, Cheng Rui had taken her home and hidden her away. Ye Jiahui, knowing that Cheng Rui had a woman, made up an excuse to visit her.

Bai Tian Tian, at least, was kind and sweet-talking and even helped the nanny at the Cheng family home. Meanwhile, she slept at home during the day, her lazy and spoiled appearance would annoy anyone.

She didn’t want to waste time arguing with anyone, and even used her sleep to organize her space.

“Miss Ye,” the nanny, not wanting anything to happen at home, advised, “Didn’t you say you came to get something? I’ll take you to the study room now.”

Ye Jiahui, already furious, slapped her, “Do you even have the right to speak here?!”

Oh, this… Human society is inherently class-based, with the upper class extremely polarized: one group is hypocritical and indifferent, driven only by self-interest, the other is utterly arrogant, treating the lower classes as less than human.

In the apocalypse, this polarization of humanity is even more severe. The lives of ordinary people are worth less than those of ants. Ye Jiahui’s beating in her room was an attempt to use the incident to slap her in the face, to annoy her.

Bai Qing Qing sat up, looking at her coldly.

“Did I disturb you?” Ye Jiahui crossed her arms, arrogantly stating, “Just disciplining a servant.”

The nanny covered her face, not daring to be angry or speak, and humbly apologized, her swollen cheek visible, “I’m sorry, Miss Ye, it was my fault.”

“Would you like me to take you to the study room?” the nanny asked cautiously.

Ye Jiahui sneered, glancing contemptuously at the silent Bai Qing Qing, and turned to leave.

“Stop!” Bai Qing Qing called out.

The nanny immediately looked at her with pleading eyes. At this moment, avoiding a confrontation with Ye Jiahui was the best course of action, Bai Qing Qing was delicate and weak, and would definitely suffer at Ye Jiahui’s hands.

Ye Jiahui turned to look at the girl getting out of bed, sneering, “Who do you think you are, daring to tell me to stop?”

Bai Qing Qing’s gaze was icy, and she said casually, “And what are you then?”

The men at Yaoyang Base usually fawned over Ye Jiahui like dogs, no one dared to speak to her like that.

She quickly walked up to Bai Qing Qing and slapped her across the face.

The nanny stared wide-eyed in shock.

Before Ye Jiahui’s slap landed, her arm was entangled by purple vines. Her expression changed drastically, “You have superpowers?”

“Can’t I?” Bai Qing Qing raised an eyebrow and retorted.

Ye Jiahui struggled but couldn’t free her hand. Her face turned extremely pale. Suddenly, a sharp knife flew in through the doorway, stabbing towards Bai Qing Qing’s face and heart like lightning. The purple vines immediately released Ye Jiahui to shield Bai Qing Qing from the attack, and everything in the room swept towards the girl like a storm.

The nanny immediately rushed out of the room to make a phone call, her voice trembling as she dialed the number for the upper management. Cheng Yan’s cold voice came from the other end, “What is it?”
