“Chen Han, hurry and return my sister’s money.”
Chen Han’s lips lifted slightly.
He had wondered why Xiao Rou came so late—turns out she went looking for help.
“You looking for death?”
Seeing Xiao Zihao charge at him, Chen Han glared at him coldly.
Seeing that terrifying look, Xiao Zihao froze instantly, stepping back in fear.
He was truly scared—what kind of gaze was that?
He could actually feel killing intent!
Chen Han sneered and looked at Xiao Rou.
“That useless little brother of yours—you expect him to teach me a lesson?”
Seeing Chen Han’s reaction, Xiao Rou’s face turned pale, her body trembling uncontrollably.
What happened to Chen Han?
Why was he treating her like this?
Didn’t he always love her?
Xiao Rou suddenly felt that the man before her was extremely unfamiliar, even frightening.
Then her eyes landed on the girl beside Chen Han.
A tall figure, perfect face, youthful and beautiful—pure yet seductive!
It’s because of her?
Xiao Rou instantly exploded in anger.
“Chen Han, what do you take me for?
You already found another woman?”
“So what?
Honestly, you can’t compare to her in any way.” Chen Han wrapped an arm around Ling Xue’s shoulder.
“You…” Xiao Rou staggered backward in panic.
Her golden goose… was gone?
Snapping back to her senses, she shouted, “Fine, we can break up, but return my 100 million!
And compensate me another 100 million for my youth!”
“Sure, come get it on July 1st.”
Surprisingly, Chen Han agreed just like that!
“Sis, too little!” Seeing how readily Chen Han agreed, Xiao Zihao whispered urgently.
Xiao Rou was also surprised, her expression shifting unpredictably.
“No, 100 million is too little.
You must compensate me 200 million!”
Before Chen Han could answer, Ling Xue spoke first.
“I’ll give you 300 million—just disappear from Han brother’s sight forever!”
“300 million!” The Xiao siblings’ eyes widened, their hearts pounding wildly!
Xiao Rou showed a satisfied expression and looked deeply at Ling Xue.
“I know you—you’re the daughter of Jianghai City’s richest man.”
“Someone of your status wouldn’t go back on her word.
I’ll come get the money on the 1st—prepare it for me.”
With that, she dragged her useless brother away.
She still didn’t forget to complain as she left.
“No wonder you even sold your company—you climbed a higher branch.
I thought Chen Han was some noble genius.
Pah!”
“Stop right there!”
Hearing this, Ling Xue strode forward and raised her hand.
Smack!
The crisp slap rang across Xiao Rou’s face.
The entire scene fell silent.
Even Chen Han didn’t expect that.
“You dare hit me?”
Xiao Rou stared blankly for ten full seconds before reacting, eyes blazing with fury.
Smack!
Another slap.
“Of course I’ll hit you, you bitch!”
“Who gave you the right to insult my Han brother?!”
“You!” Xiao Rou’s face burned.
When had she ever been humiliated like this?
But remembering Ling Xue’s identity—and the 300 million she was expecting—she endured it.
Covering her face, she gritted her teeth.
“Remember the 300 million you promised!”
Without looking back, she ran away.
“Hmph, like I’d ever forget?” Ling Xue felt immensely satisfied after driving Xiao Rou away.
She had disliked Xiao Rou for a long time—finally she got her chance!
She immediately pulled out her phone to call her father for money.
Chen Han grabbed her phone.
“You really want to give her money?”
Ling Xue blinked her big eyes.
Wasn’t that the plan?
Chen Han chuckled and pinched her cheek.
“Don’t be silly.
Even though money will be useless after tomorrow night, we shouldn’t reward her greed.”
“Not just that—I want her to suffer the apocalypse in full!”
…
Back in the villa, Chen Han and Ling Xue opened the game.
“Keep all the gold and resources in your account.
Don’t waste them on leveling.”
Chen Han reminded her.
Ling Xue didn’t understand, but she obeyed.
Whatever Chen Han said was law.
After she recharged 100 million for him, Chen Han’s account was rich again!
Chen Han wanted to buy out the entire marketplace in one go.
But his rational side stopped him.
Even with plenty of money, waste was unacceptable—most items in the market were useless.
And many things would be needed later in the apocalypse—he had to save resources.
Then Chen Han bought out all top-grade steel in the trading market.
[Successfully purchased Orange Steel*3620, cost: 72,400,000 gold.]
In the apocalypse, a home was crucial—his ability to sleep safely depended on it!
He bought steel to build a doomsday fortress.
He would fortify his villa into an iron fortress, unbreakable.
Why use in-game steel?
Because it was [Doomsday Dawn]-exclusive material.
Real-world materials could block normal zombies.
But mutated creatures or half-infected?
Even a tank couldn’t withstand a single claw!
Not to mention future powerful professionals and various abilities—only in-game materials could resist them.
After clearing the steel market, next came character power upgrades.
He recharged another 100 million!
[Congratulations player “Suit Thug” on reaching VIP11.
Reward: 100 Psynergy Crystals.]
[Want to level up fast?
Psynergy Crystals can help.
Only 648 for 10 crystals!]
“Buy!”
Chen Han didn’t even look—he bought instantly.
In [Doomsday Dawn], Psynergy Crystals were crucial for leveling.
Only by absorbing the crystals’ energy could players increase their level.
Their drop rate was terrifyingly low—killing a hundred zombies might not yield even one.
The only fast method was spending money.
The game store limited them to 10 per day.
One crystal cost 1,000 gold, equal to 100 yuan—ridiculously expensive!
Since he wanted to monopolize the market, Psynergy Crystals couldn’t be overlooked.
In the marketplace, players were selling only a little over ten thousand crystals.
After all, no one wanted to sell such essential items.
Chen Han swept the market clean, buying all ten thousand-plus crystals.
This resource that boosted strength had to be under his control—only then could he outpace all other players when the apocalypse began.
“Suit Thug” was now level 49, a Tier-4 ability user, class A Warrior, possessing formidable combat abilities.
To reach level 50 and ascend to Tier-5, leveling through combat was far from enough—he needed Psynergy Crystals.
The requirement was 5,000 crystals and a pile of rare materials—all expensive resources.
Non-paying players could never reach that stage.
Even “Roly-Poly,” formerly No.
1 on the recharge list, was only level 59, stuck there forever.
Chen Han didn’t plan to level up now.
Once the game descended into reality, all characters would reset back to level 1.
So current character level didn’t matter—resources did.
Besides, Chen Han wasn’t satisfied with an A‑rank ability.
If he reached VIP15, he could unlock a hidden class—SSS‑rank Sword Immortal!
Just as he prepared to continue spending, a message flashed across the screen.
[Friend “Little Tenderness” is now online.]
Chen Han’s eyes brightened—this was Xiao Rou’s account.
“You’re done for.
You came right to me.”
Chen Han grinned and steered “Suit Thug” toward Little Tenderness’s coordinates.
He was going to rob Xiao Rou’s account clean—so she would face the apocalypse with nothing at all!
