The Beauty and Her Sweetly Sheltered Parasitic Vine

A delicate, dependent vine at first, a strangling vine later, a lovesick, fragile beauty versus a gentle, saintly, incredibly strong prosecutor

Global evolution brought about the apocalypse. Mutated strangling vines began slaughtering humans, and both humanity and human civilization teetered on the brink of destruction.

Cen An was the eighth inspector appointed after the global evolution of living things. Her duty was to keep the strangling vines from discovering humanity's last base, using her special ability to protect the last vestiges of human civilization.

To find a way to defeat the vines, Cen An raised a mutated strangling vine and pored over countless records.

One day, Cen An came across a story in an unofficial history about the first inspector and two women. One woman had the same name as her, and the other was called Shen Qingmian.

Cen An did not take the unofficial account to heart.

But when she woke up one day, she had transmigrated to the early stages of human evolution. All things had only just begun to mutate, and there was still a chance to turn things around.

Cen An decided to take the first inspector's place, find the strangling vine ahead of time, and nip it in the bud.

As she worked toward her goal, Shen Qingmian kept appearing in front of her. She was weak and pitiful, just like the strangling vine Cen An had raised. She seemed to have no ability to attack and looked more like a delicate vine.

In fact, Shen Qingmian's evolutionary path also led to her becoming a delicate vine.

As she searched for the strangling vine, Cen An could not help letting this little vine climb up and grow around her again and again.

Until one day, she discovered that Shen Qingmian was the source of the global evolution.

Shen Qingmian had not had a single easy day in her twenty-some years of life. As a child, her parents used her as a tool to swindle people out of money. When she grew up, she was treated as a stand-in because her eyes resembled Cen An's.

She was given to Gu Yuan, a sadist who abused and humiliated her, made her love him only to trample on her feelings, and then cast her aside.

Reborn, Shen Qingmian wanted revenge.

But Gu Yuan's unrequited love appeared and saved her, pampered her, and gave her sunshine and nourishment.

She wanted to bloom for Cen An. Later, she learned that Cen An loved her, but loved humanity even more.

Shen Qingmian: "Cen An, big sister, if you want to save them, sacrifice yourself to me."

Cen An: "Shen Qingmian, mm... you... don't you dare!"

Shen Qingmian called out in a pitiful voice, "Big sister."

At the sound of that "big sister," Cen An lost focus for a moment, and then lost her chance to refuse for good.

After a night of passion, Cen An sat in the corner of the bed, looking at the girl who had fallen asleep still holding her hand. She was silent for a long while, inwardly falling apart all the same.

Who could have seen this coming? The fragile little flower she had raised like a daughter had trapped her in bed.
