A highly intelligent, cool-faced goddess Omega X an Alpha who just wants to survive and steal her away
1. Xie Li transmigrated into the body of a rich second-generation kid. She barely had time to enjoy the good life before the apocalypse arrived.
Zombies ran wild through the campus, biting everyone in sight. In her panic and helplessness, a strange woman grabbed her and pulled her into a storage room.
The door locked behind them. Outside, zombies pounded against it. Inside, a beautiful woman leaned against the wall, cheeks flushed as she panted in discomfort.
She raised her glistening eyes to Xie Li and rasped, “Come here. Mark me.”
Xie Li pressed her back against the door, her throat tight as she tried to put some distance between herself and the woman.
The woman gasped, her gaze sharp. “If you don’t want to die, give me a temporary mark.”
With her life hanging by a thread, Xie Li closed her eyes and leaned in, biting the woman’s flushed gland.
Once the chaos had passed, the woman pushed her away and looked down to straighten her wrinkled shirt. Her expression was cool, and her voice had returned to normal. “Circumstances forced our hand. Don’t dwell on it.”
2. Only later did Xie Li learn that she had transmigrated into a harem novel. The woman she had temporarily marked was the female lead, Omega Jin Zhaoye. Jin Zhaoye already had a destined partner, and Xie Li was just a minor cannon-fodder character who wouldn’t survive past three chapters. Her sole purpose was to give the protagonist a golden finger space.
The next time she saw Jin Zhaoye abandoned by her fiancée and left heartbroken, Xie Li quietly moved closer and whispered in her ear, “I’m just as good as she is. How about liking someone else instead?”
Jin Zhaoye stared at her for a few seconds, then smiled faintly, wrapped an arm around Xie Li’s neck, and kissed her.
They kissed in deserted corners, held hands while standing watch, and shielded each other whenever danger struck.
Xie Li never asked what she meant to Jin Zhaoye, and Jin Zhaoye never told her.
3. The day the zombie horde smashed through the base gates, Jin Zhaoye rushed without hesitation toward her fiancée.
Watching the woman’s back grow farther and farther away, Xie Li gave a self-mocking laugh. Cannon fodder really never lasted long. Whatever. She wouldn’t fight for her. She couldn’t win.
She closed her eyes and let the horde swallow her whole.
4. When they met again, Xie Li pinned Jin Zhaoye against the door and whispered in her ear, “Your fiancée is calling for you outside. Aren’t you going to answer?”
Relief at having found her again filled Jin Zhaoye’s eyes. Her voice hoarse, she asked, “Do you want her to hear what I sound like right now?”

Age gap: 20 x 28
After her grandmother suddenly passed away, Ji Xu returned to her hometown. She had just finished the funeral and was utterly exhausted when someone knocked at the courtyard gate.
A beautiful woman stood outside, expensive from head to toe. Sunglasses covered most of her face, but even the glimpse of her pale chin radiated arrogance.
The woman spoke in heavily accented Mandarin: “You’re Ji Xu, right? Tingye. Come back to Hong Kong with me and get married.”
Ji Xu shut the door without changing expression. She had no patience for a lunatic like this.
That night, half asleep, she was startled by her late grandmother, dressed in her burial clothes and white with rage. Her grandmother slapped Ji Xu twice as she slept soundly.
“Sleep, sleep, sleep! I found you a wife, and you turned her down. How can you sleep so peacefully?”
In the dream, Ji Xu clutched her face, her mind full of question marks.
The next day, the woman showed up again.
She removed her sunglasses, revealing a strikingly cool face. “I’m Cheng Yuan’an. Come back to Hong Kong with me and get married. You can attend the best university in Hong Kong, and once you graduate, we’ll be even.”
Somehow, Ji Xu ended up marrying into a wealthy family.
During their three years of marriage, Ji Xu studied while using the skills she had learned from her grandmother to make a name for herself in Hong Kong. Her reputation as Master Ji won her the admiration of many wealthy families.
On the day she graduated from university, Ji Xu honored their agreement, happily packed her little bag, and scampered back to the mainland to carry on her grandmother’s legacy.
She thought they had parted on good terms. Then, on a rainy night, the woman who had always treated her coldly came chasing after her at the Taoist temple, looking utterly disheveled.
Drenched from head to toe, eyes red and voice trembling, she wrapped her arms around Ji Xu and kissed her.
As their lips and tongues tangled, Ji Xu pulled away from Cheng Yuan’an. “The beds in this temple are hard.”
“You can’t leave...” Cheng Yuan’an clung tightly to her, pleading in a trembling voice. “Ji Xu... keep going...”
