I transformed into a cute girl and lived a carefree life in the apocalypse.

As soon as she sat down, Xia Ziyun's smile instantly turned into resentment, and she asked grumblingly, "Where has that brat Mu Mu been lately? I can't get in touch with her at all."

"Oh, she's seeking a breakthrough, she'll probably be back today," Yan Ziming said, making an excuse for Mu Mu.

After all, it was Lunar New Year's Eve, a day for family reunion. No matter how busy Mu Mu was, she had to come back, as did Ye Qianxue.

I've prepared so much today, and I've spent the whole morning just shopping. How dare they not come back?

Don't come back again, you can sleep on the streets!

"Speaking of which..." Xia Ziyun finished a sip of tea and suddenly said meaningfully, "Mu Mu has already confessed your relationship to me..."

7. Overcoming all obstacles

"Mu Mu has already confessed your relationship to me."

"..."

After a brief moment of silence, Yan Ziming's expression shifted several times, and he was practically cursing Mu Mu to death in his heart.

Damn it! You didn't even tell me about something this big, so I could have been prepared!

Xia Ziyun observed Yan Ziming's expression, a confident smile on her face, which made Yan Ziming uneasy.

Yan Ziming asked cautiously, "Aunt Xia... what is your opinion...?"

"According to current secular laws, this kind of concept of love is not allowed, both in terms of public opinion and the law."

Xia Ziyun simply stated the situation calmly without expressing her opinion, or rather, she had already indirectly conveyed her stance.

"I know." Yan Ziming also calmed down, meeting Xia Ziyun's gaze calmly. His tone was resolute, and a strange light flickered in his eyes.

She also has her own principles, which are not to be compromised.

"How could that be between girls?" Xia Ziyun said sullenly.

When she first heard about this from Mu Mu, she almost had a huge argument with him. Mu Mu's father, Mu Bai, was also present at the time and almost had a heart attack from anger.

Love between girls? That's insane, absolutely insane!

And what's even more outrageous is that there's more than one!

If this gets out, it will be a huge scandal!

"Time will tell," Yan Ziming said with a slight smile.

"I won't hide it from Aunt Xia, it's been several years since Mu Mu and I got together. We've been through countless ups and downs, but we've still managed to stick together, haven't we?"

"That's just because you haven't announced it to the public."

Xia Ziyun did not agree with Yan Ziming's viewpoint.

The so-called great storms are just life-and-death struggles; they have seen too little of the art of verbal sparring.

Young people have relatively open-minded views; even if they find it disgusting, they don't despise it. The older generation, on the other hand, feels complete disgust.

Their mindsets are ingrained in their souls and can never be changed. The hardest hurdle to overcome is getting past them.

Moreover, given that we are currently in the apocalypse and there is a severe population shortage, the government clearly does not want this kind of trend to be started.

In fact, the national leadership is already deeply aware of this problem.

If it's just one or two gay couples, that's fine; two couples aren't unacceptable. Even three or four couples are acceptable.

After all, we can't just break up a couple because of prejudice, can we?

But if these gay couples all possess exceptionally high heritable genetic talents and hold important positions with widespread fame...

That's not good.

Over the years, the confirmed intelligence has given the government a real headache.

Youlan, Zhiruo, Xue Yunling, Mo Sheng, Yan Zimo, Mu Mu, Ye Qianxue, Jiang Lan... and so on, have basically all expressed their intentions.

They are all beautiful 'lilies'.

When the top official of a special department learned of this fact, he was so worried that he almost lost all his hair.

My God, look at them, is this even acceptable?

Which one of them isn't a pillar of China's future? Which one isn't a backbone of China's future? But...?

What's going on here?! They're all female!

Among them are several household names. What if they set the trend and other young people follow suit?

This is an attempt to wipe out the next generation of China, and even the generation after that!

It's not a lie that excellent genes can be passed down; there are facts to back it up.

Various data indicate that if both parents have excellent genes, their children are unlikely to be too different from their parents; it is common for the child to surpass the parents.

Once this is confirmed, this is the phenomenon that government departments least want to see.

So it was time for them to take action, no, they should have taken action long ago.

In the past, if anyone dared to openly discriminate against homosexuals or make outrageous remarks, and if you or your family members held positions in government departments, they would either be removed from their posts or completely sidelined, which would be equivalent to the end of their careers.

But things are different now. The tolerance that society once showed towards homosexuality has gradually disappeared with the tacit approval of the government.

Therefore, Yan Ziming and her group will be facing a thorny path.

"But...Aunt Xia,"

Yan Ziming's eyes flickered, and in Xia Ziyun's eyes, the girl in front of her became like a goddess, and no one could go against her will.

"Whether it's homosexuality or heterosexuality, that's a matter between us, and has nothing to do with ordinary people, the government, or relatives and friends."

"But, as for my affairs with Mu Mu and the others, our affairs, we don't need to listen to their opinions."

Even Xia Ziyun, in terms of aura, was overshadowed by Yan Ziming at this moment.

Xia Ziyun gave a wry smile; she truly felt the gap between herself and Yan Ziming in terms of their levels of understanding.

Whether in terms of strength or mindset...

"Yes, you are all powerful and influential people who can stir up trouble. You don't need to care about what others think; you can just be yourself. Unlike us little people, we've been in this quagmire since birth, drifting with the current, having to consider other people's opinions before we can do anything..."

Xia Ziyun sighed softly.

Yes, what right do a group of fish living in the mud have to make decisions for a dragon soaring in the sky?

"Oh, Aunt Xia, you're making it sound like we can do whatever we want..." Yan Ziming said with an embarrassed smile.

Xia Ziyun gave her a meaningful look.

Is not it?

—The strong are respected.

The only truth that transcends all morality and law and runs through the entire course of history is unshakeable.

The only force that can restrain people like them is their own moral bottom line, right?

"So, Aunt Xia, what do you think of our situation?" Yan Ziming asked again.

"I still disagree... Well, even if you say that, you should still live your lives as you always have, without caring about what others think."

"Hehe~ At least I can't get past you, Aunt Xia..." Yan Ziming said with a chuckle, trying to please Xia Ziyun.

Once her imposing aura vanished, Yan Ziming reverted to being that soft and adorable girl, with a clear voice, gentle body, and easily pushed over.

"You're so sweet-talking." Xia Ziyun rolled her eyes at her, then complained, "Unlike that unfilial daughter, she probably wouldn't care whether I, her mother, agree or not."

"No, Mu Mu cares about you all, I can assure you of that!"

"Huh? Fine, I'll believe you then. After all, you're the one who said that..."

Xia Ziyun sighed, then glanced at Yan Ziming again and asked in a testing tone, "You said you can't get past me, so what do you plan to do if I keep disagreeing?"

Yan Ziming's expression turned serious, and he said solemnly:

"Then I will relentlessly prove to you that girls can be together. No matter how long it takes, I will prove it to you until you agree."

Even if it requires a great deal of sacrifice...

Even if the whole world doesn't bless us, I will never give up.

8. Planting lilies in front of his mother-in-law.

Yan Ziming spoke with such unwavering resolve that one could sense her strong will simply from her words.

Those are flowers that no storm can destroy, blooming amidst endless thorns...

Xia Ziyun closed her eyes with satisfaction, a smile appearing on her lips. "I understand. Then prove it to me in the days to come."

"No need for later, let's do it now~~"

Yan Ziming winked playfully at her, stood up under Xia Ziyun's questioning gaze, silently walked behind the screen placed in the corner, and gently pulled it.

"Ahhh, don't pull me!"

A graceful figure was pulled out by her. When Xia Ziyun saw this person, she was stunned, because the person Yan Ziming pulled out was the unfilial daughter she had mentioned.

"Xiao Mu?!"
