The heavy metal pressure hatch slowly slid open. Qi Yue had to struggle to lift her head, and the face that came into view was the last one she wanted to see.
Come on, no way. There are tens of thousands of people in the patrol fleet. How could she possibly run into him?
Li Mingzheng looked stern and all business. She counted the stars on his shoulder insignia, then had to admit he'd risen quickly over the past few years.
“Finished counting?” Li Mingzheng's lips slowly curled into that same familiar, infuriatingly smug smile. “Do you know how much trouble you've gotten yourself into, Miss Mercenary?”
Bastard… Qi Yue cursed him inwardly.
Li Mingzheng, you'd better pray you never fall into my hands.
Qi Yue had hated Li Mingzheng since she was twelve. It had been over a decade now.
Back at the special operations academy, everyone knew they couldn't stand each other. From the academy to the patrol fleet, she'd had enough. She never expected that even after leaving the fleet and hiding somewhere this far away, she'd still run into him. They really were destined enemies, and he just wouldn't leave her alone.
If she'd known he was coming, she might as well have shut her eyes and fed herself to the bugs.
Human history began with the first catastrophic insectoid invasion, marking Year One and dividing history into the pre- and post-era.
It is now Year 836 of the post-era, the 836th year of humanity's war against the insectoids.
Born in an apocalyptic age and an ordinary Beta, Qi Yue knows that she, along with her love and hatred, is insignificant.
When the nest falls, no egg remains unbroken.
