Rebirth in the Apocalypse: My Ex-Girlfriend's Guide to Winning Me Over

That very night, they broke into the home of a woman living alone and the three of them assaulted her.

Unfortunately, the woman's family had run out of food. They had finished their supplies for the day, so my cousin suggested we go and rob some. He said they had weapons and a gang, so they weren't afraid at all.

Wang Yong suggested going to Unit 1 of Building 5, where there was a very pretty girl on the 18th floor whom he had been eyeing for a long time.

Moreover, this little girl received dozens of packages every day in the days leading up to the apocalypse, so she certainly didn't lack food.

Upon hearing that the girl was pretty, the cousin and his friend got carried away and nodded repeatedly, the three of them hitting it off immediately.

After making his way to 1801, Lao Hu took out several oddly shaped keys, inserted them into the keyholes, squinted, listened to the sound of the keyholes, and had a wire in his mouth.

Lin Ling was fast asleep when she vaguely heard the rustling sound of a lock being opened.

I was startled awake and, listening to the sounds coming from outside, I realized they were coming from outside my own house.

She never expected that her sister Xiaoyou's house would be burgled that very morning, and then it would be her turn that evening.

It would be a lie to say that a woman living alone is not afraid.

His fingers, gripping the axe tightly, turned white from the effort. He walked to the door and pushed it open with all his might.

Old Hu, who was unlocking the door, covered his nose and cried out in pain. Unexpectedly, the door was suddenly pushed open, and he picked up a kitchen knife and slashed at her.

Lin Ling was faster than him, swinging her axe at the man's neck. The sound of bones breaking rang out, and the man lay motionless on the ground.

The two male accomplices swung their flashlights, and upon seeing this scene, their true colors were revealed as they drew their knives and slashed upwards.

Lin Ling instantly unleashed a fireball at one of the people, who immediately burst into flames. Upon seeing this, Wang Yong was shocked and ran away.

Unexpectedly, a dark figure pounced over, and a beam of light struck him directly in the chest. Before he could even cry out, he collapsed to the ground.

Lin Ling looked in the direction of the voice and saw the person who came. Her nose felt a little sore.

He fiercely raised his axe and slit the neck of the last man.

Zuo You opened the window, and the rain poured in. She deftly threw the three corpses out the window.

Seeing her standing there motionless with her head down, he picked up a bunch of keys from the ground, put them in his pocket, and went up to comfort her, saying, "You're pretty good, you killed two of them."

Erdan: I slaughtered some too, why didn't my master praise me? Is it because I didn't slaughter enough?

Zuo You was fine when she didn't say anything, but as soon as she did, Lin Ling couldn't hold back anymore, rushed forward and hugged her, bursting into tears.

She cried hysterically, her voice filled with helplessness, panic, and grievance.

The thick stench of blood in the air and the sound of the rain hitting her ears were enough to break her down.

She regretted it!

She doesn't want the apocalypse!

Even if things are unpleasant before the end of the world, it's still better than struggling on the edge of life and death every day like this.

Zuo You gently patted her back, unsure how to comfort her.

She knew about Lin Ling's inner repression.

In just two days, the world went from peacetime to a devastated apocalypse.

They experienced being cut off from the world, the endless darkness of the polar night, the grotesque zombies, and the lurking evil.

Anyone would break down at some point.

Even Zuo You, who has experienced five years of apocalypse, still feels anxious, uneasy, and lonely.

Lin Ling is brave; she is able to proactively adapt to her current environment and has made her best efforts in doing so.

This is something most people can't do at this stage.

What's wrong with venting your emotions?

After a while.

After Lin Ling had cried enough, she vigorously wiped away her tears with the back of her hand and pulled her into the study without saying a word.

Zuo You looked at the room full of supplies in surprise.

Lin Ling stockpiled goods because of her own post? That's a bit of an exaggeration, isn't she afraid it might be fake?

Her expression was somewhat complicated. "You're showing me these things, aren't you afraid I'll pocket them?"

Lin Ling bit her lip and said, "Don't worry, I'll give you everything. You can provide me with food and lodging, and I'll work for you."

She knew very well that without Zuo You's help, she couldn't hold onto the supplies with her current abilities.

Only three people came tonight, what if more people come?

Zuo You stared at her, remaining silent for a long time.

Lin Ling felt uneasy under their gaze and muttered, "That's all, it's all here."

Zuo You turned her head to the side, chuckled, and waved the flashlight, saying smugly, "Open your eyes wide and see clearly."

After saying that, he waved his hand and put the supplies into his spatial storage.

His lips twitched slightly; his attempt to show off had failed, and he hadn't managed to collect the rest.

He chuckled dryly, went into the study, and collected all the supplies.

Lin Ling instantly revived, her eyes gleaming with greed, and asked, "Sister Xiaoyou, is this also a superpower? Did I somehow find a powerful backer?"

"Yes, spatial ability. Remember, whether it's spatial ability or dual abilities, you must not let others know."

Zuo You was willing to tell her about the existence of the space because she shared her secret, which gave Zuo You a sense of trust.

It's really not safe to have so many supplies in the room.

Where is there a safe space?

Of course, the senses that Lin Ling brought her in her previous life also played a part.

"I know, I know, there definitely won't be a third person who knows. Sister Xiaoyou, is your space big? How much can you hold? Your superpower..."

"Hey, Sister Xiaoyou, don't go..."

Zuo You found her annoying, yawned, and left.

......

The rain didn't stop until the fifth day, and Zuo You moved into Lin Ling's house yesterday.

Her balcony was flooded, and she had been thinking of moving to 1902, but Lin Ling said she wanted to live together.

Zuo You knew that she was still traumatized by what happened that night, so she didn't object. If she wasn't comfortable living together, they could just move to another place.

This neighborhood has nothing else, but there are far too many empty houses.

So, she started living with her dog and her temporary partner whom she had only known for a few days.

Just like in her previous life, Lin Ling chose to use a sword.

Zuo You couldn't give her any pointers, so she had to learn by watching video tutorials. After three days of learning, she looked quite decent at dancing.

Besides ruining the bar, the dog's daily job is still unpacking packages.

Besides observing the changes in the zombies and educating a person and a dog about post-apocalyptic knowledge, Zuo You also dug a pool in the space.

Physical training is no longer useful for her, and her ability growth is extremely slow, almost negligible. She still needs to rely on crystal cores.

Temperatures continued to rise, with indoor temperatures reaching 28 degrees Celsius by the end of March.

In her previous life, during the polar night, the climate wasn't so changeable, so she couldn't see this apocalypse clearly now.

She took a bite of the icy watermelon and murmured contentedly.

The dog still insisted that its fruit be chilled.

How is it expressed?

Pointing to Zuo You and Lin Ling's fruit plates, he then pointed to his own fruit plate.

"Wang-"

Zuo You immediately understood and replied, "Didn't I tell you that girls shouldn't eat cold food?"

Erdan raised his paw and pointed at Lin Ling: Isn't she a girl? How can you eat her?

Zuo You argued confidently, "Xiao Ling is a fire elemental, she can ward off the cold herself, can you?"

The dog got angry and jumped onto the table, snatching Lin Ling's fruit plate.

It implies that if it wouldn't dare to steal from its owner, how could it not dare to steal from Lin Ling?
