If this were a post-apocalyptic novel, Ji Qingning would be the kind of "bleeding-heart saint" who holds her teammates back by trying to save people. After being reborn, transmigrating, or awakening a golden finger, the protagonist's team would kill her first thing.
But this is a real, chaotic, crazy world.
Zombie outbreaks, mutated plants and animals, polluted soil and water, food shortages... The virus is far more contagious than anyone imagined. The Awakened are evolving far more slowly than people are turning into zombies, and more and more ordinary people, even the Awakened, are getting infected...
In a world like this, a softhearted person like Ji Qingning is a rare thing.
Of course, good people often don't live long.
Ji Qingning was lucky enough to survive for quite a while. It's just a shame that she never got to sleep with the guy she had her heart set on before she died.
Ji Qingning had this to say:
Damn apocalypse, ruining my youth and wrecking my love life!
If I'd known, why bother with a slow-burn romance? I should've made a move the moment I fell for Senior!
The serious blurb:
In the early days of the apocalypse, Ji Qingning was the only high-level wood-type Awakened.
By the late apocalypse, she was the only uninfected wood-type Awakened.
And so she became a symbol of "life." That vivid, beautiful Awakened rose also became a bright spark of "hope" in the gloomy apocalypse.
It's no good to burden one person with too much expectation. Responsibility comes with endless insults and resentment.
Ji Qingning did everything she could, but in the end, she couldn't stop the tide of destruction. In this world turned upside down, the power of an individual was insignificant.
As one survivor base after another vanished, across the vast Blue Star, humanity could no longer find a single safe haven...
Couple:
The upright, kind chosen one and her beautiful, strong, tragic villain crush.

This should be a pre-prequel to My Life as the Villain's Dad. Why a pre-prequel instead of a prequel?
Because if there were a prequel, it would be The Years I Spent as a Villain.
Theme: Do not neglect a good deed because it is small, and do not commit an evil deed because it is small. Kindness is not wrong. What is wrong is a world where good deeds go unrewarded and evil deeds go unpunished.
