“Jiang Xu, if you have the guts, then beat me to death. Otherwise, once I find an opportunity, I will make you and your lover wish you were dead.”
In a daze, Jiang Xu heard a voice filled with hatred that was unexpectedly pleasant to the ears.
Hadn’t she just caught her scumbag ex-boyfriend cheating on her with another woman, only to grab him and fall from the rooftop together?
What was going on with this futuristic villa in front of her?
In the enormous living room, several robotic vacuum cleaners were happily scurrying around. Not far away, on the sofa, a robot was folding clothes.
It was even more nimble at folding them than she was.
Even the walls and floor were filled with an unmistakable AI aesthetic.
Lying on the floor in front of Jiang Xu was an incredibly handsome man who had been tightly bound from head to toe. His body was covered in blood, and every inch of him exuded a sense of brokenness.
She had only ever seen men with such exceptional bone structure among actors.
However, the murderous intent in the handsome man’s eyes as he stared at her was so intense that it sent chills down her spine.
Jiang Xu couldn’t help shivering.
Suddenly, a wave of memories that did not belong to her flashed through her mind.
She had transmigrated into the Villainess of a Post-Apocalyptic novel she had read before.
The story was set in the year 2526. Longguo had long since unified the world, and just as society was about to enter communism, Earth entered the Post-Apocalyptic era.
The weather became unpredictable, water sources and soil were polluted, and the water and food people consumed contained varying degrees of toxins. Plants and animals were also being overtaken by mutated species, transforming into monsters that attacked humans.
Fortunately, humanity gradually evolved supernatural abilities while fighting back, finally reaching a delicate balance with the mutated species. However, over the past two years, the mutated species had suddenly begun evolving at an alarming rate. Water sources and soil became even more polluted, food supplies grew scarce, and human survival became increasingly difficult.
It was at this point that the female protagonist emerged.
She was kind and powerful, compassionate without being hypocritical. She awakened gravity and purification abilities. When fighting mutated species, she possessed immense strength. Outside of battle, she could use her purification ability to cleanse not only food and water sources, but also the toxins inside the bodies of other ability users.
During the early stages of the apocalypse, the number of women had plummeted. At the most terrifying point, the ratio of men to women had reached sixty to one.
As a result, the government enacted a series of laws protecting women, along with medical systems designed to maintain women’s health. They also implemented a system of one wife with multiple husbands.
The female protagonist’s strength naturally attracted many outstanding men, who willingly bowed before her. These men were all formidable figures outside, yet in front of her, they were completely devoted and obedient.
Among the powerful Five Male Confidants in the female protagonist’s harem were the Villainess’s five husbands.
The Villainess’s parents and brothers were all high-level ability users, but she had never awakened an ability herself. Aside from having a beautiful face, she was an ordinary woman in every other respect.
She had been spoiled since childhood, which had caused her to develop a reckless and lawless personality. She often relied on the fact that her parents and brothers had been stationed in contaminated zones for years and had made outstanding contributions to the country, using that as an excuse to cause trouble.
Six months earlier, the Villainess’s parents had planned to venture deep into a heavily contaminated area. Worried that she would be unable to take care of herself alone, they found her five husbands, each of whom was outstanding in every aspect.
Only then did the couple leave with peace of mind.
Who could have known that the Villainess would not be satisfied with her five husbands? Instead, she became infatuated with a smooth-talking male supporting character.
When Jiang Xu had been reading the novel, she had even complained that his name was the same as her own scumbag ex-boyfriend, Jiang Xu’s Scumbag Ex-Boyfriend.
Under his instigation, the Villainess constantly found excuses to torment her five husbands until they were miserable beyond words, while shamelessly throwing herself at him.
When her husbands asked for a divorce, she responded by tormenting them even more severely.
The female protagonist couldn’t stand watching anymore, so she gave the Villainess a mild warning.
The Villainess was not only ungrateful, but also came to regard the female protagonist as a thorn in her side, constantly targeting her and causing her no end of trouble.
The moment she saw her husbands having a normal conversation with the female protagonist, the Villainess assumed that the woman was trying to seduce them.
She therefore decided to make her husbands take her to find her parents and brothers so they could back her up.
However, not long after entering the contaminated zone, her husbands, who had already had enough of her, abandoned her together.
They simply let a mutated cow impale her through the stomach.
The Villainess died a miserable death in the contaminated zone.
After her death, the five husbands were also left fighting for their lives when an unexpected wave of mutated beasts attacked them.
Fortunately, the female protagonist arrived in time with her own harem and rescued them.
While carrying out missions with the female protagonist and her group, the five men gradually became attracted to her. They took the initiative to pursue her and eventually joined her harem as well.
The Villainess’s parents and brothers also died one after another from exhaustion of their abilities while carrying out a mission not long after the female protagonist’s death.
It was the female protagonist who risked her life and ventured deep into the mission site to bring back the remains of the Villainess’s family.
When Jiang Xu had been reading the novel, she had been deeply captivated by the female protagonist’s kindness and magnanimity. She had dreamed of becoming such a powerful female lead herself.
She never expected that after transmigrating, she would become the female protagonist’s foil.
And she had less than two weeks before she was supposed to die.
“Shen Jue, how dare you threaten your wife? You have some nerve.”
“Today, I’ll teach you a proper lesson on behalf of Jiang Xu, you insolent man.”
While Jiang Xu was still lost in thought, she suddenly heard Jiang Xu’s Scumbag Ex-Boyfriend’s voice.
She abruptly widened her eyes and saw a face identical to that of the scumbag ex-boyfriend from before her transmigration.
Instantly, anger surged through her.
Jiang Xu’s Scumbag Ex-Boyfriend snatched the rattan whip from Jiang Xu’s hand and was about to lash Shen Jue with it.
Shen Jue instinctively clenched his teeth, bracing himself for the pain.
Yet the expected pain never came.
Instead, he saw this crazy woman kick Jiang Xu’s Scumbag Ex-Boyfriend directly in the most vulnerable part of his body.
Jiang Xu’s Scumbag Ex-Boyfriend let out a scream, dropped to his knees, then tilted sideways and passed out completely.
“Jiang Xu’s Scumbag Ex-Boyfriend, I’ll kill you, you bastard!”
Seeing that he was not moving, Jiang Xu snatched up the rattan whip that had fallen to the ground and viciously struck him once.
“Stop pretending like that!”
The rattan left a bloody mark on Jiang Xu’s Scumbag Ex-Boyfriend’s body, yet he didn’t even make a sound.
Good.
If he didn’t make a sound, then it didn’t hurt.
Still unsatisfied, Jiang Xu kicked him hard several more times in the butt.
That damned scumbag had said he wanted to take the civil service exam after graduation. Then he had lived in her house and eaten and drank at her expense for three whole years.
In the end, he passed the exam, only to betray the woman who loved him first.
She had caught him fooling around with his mistress on the rooftop.
She had gone up there to confront him, but that bastard had actually teamed up with his mistress and tried to push her off the building.
At the critical moment, she had wrapped her arms around Jiang Xu’s Scumbag Ex-Boyfriend’s neck and dragged him down with her.
Heaven must have eyes.
It had given her the chance to beat this bastard to her heart’s content.
After kicking him until she was tired, Jiang Xu repeatedly lashed him several more times.
As she beat him, she cursed, “I worked my ass off to support you for three years, and this is how you repay me? You actually thought you could become a civil servant. You’d better die early and save everyone some air.”
Although this Jiang Xu’s Scumbag Ex-Boyfriend was not the same person as the one from her previous life, whoever he was, he deserved to be beaten!
Shen Jue was completely stunned as he watched from the side.
What kind of trick was this woman playing now?
