The Apocalypse Big Shot Travels to the Seventies

【Synopsis】 This is Shen Banyue’s eighth year in the apocalypse. She has awakened several abilities and struggles to survive in a world overrun by zombies. One day, while searching for clean water, Shen Banyue encounters zombies. One moment she’s fighting them, and the next, everything goes black. She wakes up in the world of a period novel. The good news: Although this era is poor, it’s far better than the apocalypse. At least clean water is everywhere, and she still has the abilities she awakened in the apocalypse. The bad news: She’s become a nine-year-old girl, locked in a dark room with the novel’s heroine by human traffickers. The heroine is only three years old. According to the plot, the heroine will be rescued when a kindhearted person sees through the traffickers’ deal with a buyer. When no one can find her birth parents, that person will adopt her. But the cannon-fodder character Shen Banyue has become will be sold into the mountains and won’t be rescued for decades. After thinking through the plot, Shen Banyue realizes that even if she escapes the traffickers’ den, she has nowhere to go. Her birth parents are dead. Her own uncle sold her to the traffickers. If she runs back, he’ll sell her again. Even if he doesn’t, she’ll be worked to the bone by her unscrupulous uncle’s family. So Shen Banyue punches the burly trafficker flat. Wiping blood from his nose, he howls, “I’ll let you go! Isn’t that enough?” Shen Banyue waves her little fist. “No! Take me with you to meet the buyer!” The trafficker: “???” He’s never heard a demand this absurd! After the traffickers are arrested by the police, Shen Banyue holds the heroine’s little hand, eyes red. “Those people gave me so much knockout medicine that it damaged my brain. I can’t remember anything. I only remember that she’s my little sister, and I can’t be separated from her.” The trafficker: “…” “She’s lying! She’s making it all up!” Synopsis dated August 23, 2024 【Reader’s Guide】 *Slow burn, with everyday life and career-building, plus a touch of an ensemble cast. This is not a strong female-lead story, so it’s not recommended for readers who are extremely devoted to either the heroine or the male lead. *Imaginary setting. The characters’ values don’t represent the author’s, and the fictional world isn’t the real world. *Protect wildlife and care for the natural environment. *You don’t need to tell me if you drop the story.

She enjoyed the easy life for several years, until her grandfather passed away. If she wanted to taste his signature noodle dish with gravy again, she’d have to make it herself. Then Shen Lu was in a car accident on her way to buy groceries and transmigrated.

The good news: The god of transmigration has given her a pocket dimension with a spirit spring. She can raise chickens and grow vegetables, providing for herself. Best of all, its food is high-quality and delicious, and comes with astonishing benefits. Shen Lu rolls up her sleeves, kicks the scumbag, slaps the two-faced woman, snatches back a job opportunity, and becomes an apprentice at a state-run restaurant. Pei Xingzhou is handsome, talented, and the most eligible bachelor in the military district. But Chef Liu in the cafeteria is always cursing him behind his back as a “pain in the neck.” Pei Xingzhou is so picky that every day he’s either making suggestions or on his way to make more. Under his cold, repeated verdicts of “disgusting,” Chef Liu nearly loses his dreams and turns into a salted fish. Then one day, Chef Liu suddenly realizes Pei Xingzhou hasn’t shown up in the cafeteria for weeks. … When people in the military district hear that Commander Pei visits the state-run restaurant every day, they say, “Of course! Chef Shen’s cooking is so delicious!” When they hear that Commander Pei has married her, they say, “Of course… Wait, what? Commander Pei, how could you play dirty?
