She knew Fang Yuxin meant well, so she reluctantly accepted. But when her family saw her stockpiling supplies in bulk, they thought she was crazy and started causing trouble with her, demanding she use her card’s balance to buy houses for her brothers and get them wives.
Li Qingyun didn’t agree, initially only spending her own savings without touching Fang Yuxin’s money. Later when Fang Yuxin called, saying she had a nightmare, asking how the supply buying was going, she had no choice but to also spend the money Fang Yuxin had given her, buying supplies to prevent her parents from asking for more money.
Soon after, the apocalypse arrived, and many people turned into zombies, but she was lucky enough to awaken as a superpower user. Initially, with an abundance of supplies and being a superpower user, she could have managed pretty well even in the apocalypse. However, soon her relatives crowded her home, all flocking to her for refuge.
Many of these relatives were the type they hadn’t contacted for years, those who looked down on their poverty. Yet after the apocalypse, they brazenly sought her out.
While they were family, Li Qingyun didn’t intend to drive them away; however, she soon discovered her relatives were utterly disgraceful!
These people, taking advantage of her inattention, secretly carted away the supplies she had saved up to curry favor with others! Watching the supplies being hauled away massively, these ingrates managed to secure some minor positions, securing jobs in the Safe Zone.
Her parents didn’t think these people were excessive but instead turned around to chide her for being foolish and squabbling with her own family!
Her superpower was Mutated Wood Element, but it lacked the ordinary Wood Element’s healing and plant-growth abilities; her talent was in extracting plant essences. With this ability, she secured a minor assistant position at a research institute but earned just enough to get by.
Due to housing shortages within the Safe Zone, the relatives didn’t move out and continued to live cramped together in one apartment, constantly mooching off her and taking advantage. Her parents were the type who were exceedingly submissive outwardly but only aggressive within their own home. They didn’t dare confront their relatives and took all their frustrations out on her and her sister.
She also had a younger brother who had been indolent from a young age, not even securing a stable job in the Safe Zone, and just idled about. Her parents constantly nagged her in front of him, urging her to find him an easy, well-paying job, but how could she possibly find one?
She did shamelessly ask around for jobs, but her brother disdained them all, finding them too tedious and too tiring, and felt she was belittling him!
Even though it had only been one to two months since she returned home, Li Qingyun felt mentally and physically exhausted, more than she had ever been in her life. What hurt her more was the attitude of her family.
If her superpower hadn’t been an auxiliary type and she hadn’t lacked force, she would have left this family long ago!
