Blurb:

Everyone knows that Kong Xia, who debuted as the center, has a nemesis: Cheng Langqiu, who competed with her for the center spot for months and ultimately lost.

One is a sweet-and-spicy beauty whose dancing sets the stage on fire; the other is a stunning vocalist with a voice kissed by angels. Rumor has it the two can't stand each other: queens who never meet.

When Kong Xia heard that her nemesis, Cheng Langqiu, would be on the same variety show as her, she was so shocked her eyes nearly popped out. She still remembered how Cheng Langqiu had stared at the rankings alone for ages on debut night.

Then she had cornered Kong Xia and warned her, "This is my dream. Now you're standing on it, so tread lightly."

Kong Xia had obediently agreed, then turned around and went to...

Make money!

Come on, singing and dancing were Cheng Langqiu's dream. Kong Xia just wanted to make money: endorsements, variety shows, bring it all on!

Kong Xia, caught red-handed fooling around: "I'm done for. Cheng Langqiu's coming to beat me up!"

Cheng Langqiu clenched her fists, took several deep breaths, and tried to keep her voice level. "Do you... want to fake a couple image with me?"

Who would have thought that someone as aloof as Cheng Langqiu would also go on a variety show to make money, and even take the initiative to ask Kong Xia to fake a couple image with her!

Of course, the answer was...

"I want to be the top! I want to be a super-macho top!"

Cheng Langqiu's expression turned complicated. "...Fine."

Kong Xia pinched her cheeks and held her hands, then spun her around and pinned her against the wall. "Am I fierce? Am I a top? Straight girls are just this bold, so don't be scared!"

Cheng Langqiu narrowed her eyes and lifted Kong Xia's chin. "Is that so? Since we're both straight, I think we can go a little further."

Kong Xia had been straight for over twenty years and firmly believed that girls holding hands and saying suggestive things to each other was perfectly normal. When she saw beautiful women walking arm in arm down the street, all she could think was how damn rich they must be.

Then she met Cheng Langqiu...

After agonizing over it for ages, Kong Xia finally ventured, "Ahem, well... I might not be totally straight... Could you give a girl a chance?"

Cheng Langqiu: "Too late."

Kong Xia: "What?"

Cheng Langqiu: "You figured it out too late. I showed you my heart ages ago."

"Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,

Enwrought with golden and silver light,

The blue and the dim and the dark cloths

Of night and light and the half-light,

I would spread the cloths under your feet:

But I, being poor, have only my dreams;

I have spread my dreams under your feet;

Tread softly because you tread on my dreams."

W. B. Yeats, "He Wishes for the Cloths of Heaven"

Blurb:

The moment Mu Yufeng opened her eyes, she discovered that two hundred years had passed. Born in a golden age of technological explosion, she had missed the ethically chaotic cyberpunk era and seemed to have fast-forwarded straight to a wasteland apocalypse.

At least she was still alive, warm and comfortable inside a hibernation pod.

Except... the power was about to run out, and the underground city was empty.

If she wanted to survive, she had to make it to the surface.

The surface was overrun with zombies and full of danger. Mu Yufeng was empty-handed and about to be forced onto the road.

Oh, wait. Not empty-handed. Wasn't there a huge hammer in the hibernation pod, left behind by who knows who?

All right, so she just had to swing a big hammer? Mu Yufeng smashed the pod's glass lid with one blow, physically broke through the underground city's layers of security, and triumphantly fought her way up to the surface, hundreds of meters above.

Behind the thick radiation-proof door, Mu Yufeng prepared herself for battle.

Three... two... one...

Open up!

Mu Yufeng found a zombie baby about the size of a newborn.

And so Mu Yufeng, over two hundred (crossed out) in her twenties, began raising a child.

At first,

Mu Yufeng: "What a good baby! What a well-behaved baby! Your bloodline is so powerful that zombies won't come within a few dozen meters. You're a portable, 360-degree protection charm!"

Later,

Mu Yufeng: "No wonder you're the Zombie Emperor. You sure grow fast! A walking weapon of mass destruction. I love my violent little girl!"

Later still,

Mu Yufeng: "Kid! How many times have I told you not to kiss me... Mmph... Take your hands off me!"

You Ye: "The best decision I ever made in my absurd life was to freeze my dying beloved. That way, I would have all the time I needed to use every means at my disposal to find a cure for her.

But I think I opened Pandora's box.

They all say I'm insane. They say I'll destroy the world one day. But so what?

My beloved is gone. What meaning does the world have without her?

I've finally found a way to cure her!

But I don't think I'll live long enough.

It was the first mutant I created, a perfect embryo, forever frozen deep in the laboratory. I injected my blood into it.

I considered it my legacy, and commanded it to sleep on, never to wake.

Until my beloved awoke."
