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

Inside Yan Ziming's residence, the following scene was unfolding—

"Qianxue, do you think my outfit is appropriate?"

"Mmm. Big sister looks good in everything!"

"Aaaaaah! No, I should dress more formally and respectfully for this kind of occasion..."

"Big sister, please try this on..."

"Let me see... Screw your sailor uniform, are you out of your mind?!"

"Ouch—it hurts..."

Inside the bedroom, all sorts of clothes were tossed around, burying Ye Qianxue on the bed in a thick layer of fabric.

Yan Ziming, on the other hand, was undecided, unsure which outfit to wear.

"The awarding ceremony is about to begin, Xiao Momo, what are you dawdling about!"

A low growl came from outside the door. She barged in, her beautiful face full of anger.

"I don't know what to wear!" Yan Ziming was on the verge of tears. If she was late for this kind of occasion, her uncle would definitely break her legs!

"Don't know what to wear?! Didn't we say we could wear anything? School uniform or casual clothes are fine, just don't wear anything that goes against our values!"

Mu Mu laughed, rummaged around on the bed for a while, and accurately pulled out a uniform and threw it at Yan Ziming's head.

"This is the one, hurry up and change into it!"

"What?! This is an office lady uniform?! I have one of these at home?!"

Chapter Thirty-Nine: Tension

"Office lady uniform? How come I have one? I've never bought one!"

Ye Qianxue's gaze darted around, her attempt to conceal her true intentions was obvious.

She bought this a while ago, intending to let her older sister wear it when she felt she owed her something in return, but she just forgot about it.

"Ugh......."

It was obvious that it was her younger sister's work. In a hurry, Yan Ziming didn't want to say much to her. The clothes weren't very difficult to put on, and in no time, a beautiful woman with a brand new look appeared.

Did I pick the wrong one...?

Looking at Yan Ziming, who was dressed in a beautiful office lady uniform and was captivating to all, Mu Mu suddenly began to question her decision.

However, Yan Ziming, the person in question, was bending over to adjust her skirt, which was out of place. Although her knee-length skirt was an office lady uniform that paid great attention to appearance, it was now worn by Yan Ziming and showed a lot of allure on top of its original solemnity and propriety.

Perhaps finding the bodycon skirt too tight and restrictive, she simply pulled up the seam along the side of the skirt, all the way to her upper thigh, instantly exposing a large expanse of smooth, glossy skin. Ye Qianxue and Mu Mu stared wide-eyed.

Her alluring and proud bust stretched her clothes so much that they seemed about to burst out, her slender waist was incredibly supple, and her long, beautiful, snow-white legs were simply irresistibly provocative.

"Why are you all staring at me like that...it's so embarrassing!"

Yan Ziming lowered her hands to cover her private area, her face flushed and she pouted coquettishly, which made Mu Mu even more unrestrained.

A fairy is a fairy; she looks incredibly alluring no matter what she wears!

"You should wear your old outfit back... This one... well, it's too provocative. In fact, you're provocative no matter what you wear. Your old outfit was a bit lighter."

Yan Ziming rolled her eyes at her. How could this perverted sadist talk like that? According to her logic, should she just go completely naked?

She quickly took off the OL uniform that made her feel uncomfortable and changed into her usual standard attire.

—A blazer, a plaid mini skirt, matte black stockings, and a white undershirt.

"The current older sister is better."

Ye Qianxue gave a satisfied evaluation.

Although the older sister was very sexy and alluring, she inevitably revealed the temperament of a vixen, which was completely inconsistent with Yan Ziming's original temperament. It was a pleasure for outsiders who were not familiar with her, but not so comfortable for those who knew her.

"Alright, hurry up, there's still half an hour before it starts, more than enough time to get there."

"There's still half an hour left, why are you rushing me!" Yan Ziming asked, her eyes wide.

"If you don't make the timeframe tighter, you won't understand how to work quickly! And do you think half an hour is a lot? There are still various rehearsals and adjustments to make it happen. If we don't arrive an hour early, it's considered late!"

Mu Mu said in a matter-of-fact manner that she had witnessed Yan Ziming's ability to be late or barely meet the deadline several times, and she had been implicated as well.

In the past, it would have been fine, but in this solemn occasion, she would not allow such a thing to happen under her supervision.

"Tch... let's go."

Yan Ziming pouted and leaned into Mu Mu's arms. Ye Qianxue did the same. With a flash of silver light, three stunningly beautiful women appeared in a solemn and dignified place.

Everywhere you look, there are red carpets, colorful flags, and many other festive scenes. Outside, there are crowds of people, and you can hear their cheers.

Yan Ziming looked out the window at the enthusiastic crowd outside and couldn't help but shiver.

"Tsk tsk... This is even bigger than I imagined. I'm a little nervous, what should I do?"

"Why is it so complicated to just have you come here to award a medal!"

Mu Mu rolled her eyes at her. It wasn't like she was being asked to do anything shameful in public. This kind of mentality was really inconsistent with her powerful strength.

As Yan Ziming approached the main hall, he found many important figures waiting there, including the leader of China. He was finally able to meet the person in person.

Seeing that he was talking to the other bigwigs, Yan Ziming didn't go up to disturb him. He sat upright in the corner, waiting for the moment of receiving the medal.

Also present were Yan Shan and Mo Sheng, two pillars of China. The others were unable to attend due to their duties in guarding Sichuan and Guangdong, but they would appear on television.

"Well done."

A strong, powerful hand patted Yan Ziming's shoulder. The voice was full of satisfaction. Turning around, he saw his uncle's eyes were full of approval, as if he hoped his son would become a dragon.

"Uncle."

"Uncle Yan Shan..."

"Hello, Uncle~~"

Yan Ziming's attitude was somewhat indifferent, while Mu Mu greeted Yan Shan rather nervously. Ye Qianxue, as always, greeted him sweetly.

Yan Shan nodded, increasingly satisfied. If he wasn't mistaken, his niece had already won over both of them, making them practically family.

He was extremely satisfied with his niece's performance in the pioneering operation. She had killed twenty-three S-class mutated species and five SS-class species on the front lines. Her other achievements were countless, and she was awarded the "First-Class Merit" award, an honor that almost only existed in legends.

In addition, Ye Qianxue's performance was also commendable. Although she was not as good as Yan Zimo, she still deserved a second-class merit.

Then there's Mu Mu. Normally, ninth-tier powerhouses don't need to be awarded medals. They've already reached this position and don't need any further embellishment, because their very existence is something that everyone is watching.

However, given that she is a newly promoted ninth-tier powerhouse, and that she traveled thousands of miles to aid Sichuan and killed an SSS-level mutated species, the national leadership, after discussion, made an exception and included her on the list.

The country needs to promote her, raise her influence to a new level, and ensure that the morale of the Chinese people is high.

After a moment, Yan Shan noticed that Yan Zimo seemed a little nervous and asked, "Are you still not used to it?"

"Well, it is a bit..."

There was nothing to hide in front of family, so Yan Ziming readily admitted it.

"Then you need to get used to it quickly. If you want to wear the crown, you must first bear its weight. There will be many more things for you to carry in the future."

"Um......."

------

March 17, 2026, Bei'an Military Administrative District.

People outside were in high spirits, with major media outlets coming to film and interview, and even implementing traffic control and no-fly zones to prevent major traffic accidents on this solemn and grand day.

Almost everyone in China knows that today is the awarding ceremony for many pioneering heroes, and those important figures who rarely appear in the public eye will be given a chance to see them all at once.

For example, Mu Mu and her group of national goddesses were among the main targets of attention for the vast majority of male viewers present.

Do you think Mu Mu, Yan Ziming, and Qianxue Jiang will make an appearance?

"Are you stupid?! Of course you are! It's all clearly written on the list!"

"He's beautiful and powerful. With such a wife, what more could I ask for!"

"Someone come here! Someone, wake this guy up with urine. Those with diabetes, please wait. Those with urinary tract diseases, please have priority."

Chapter Forty Awarding Ceremony

Inside the waiting room, Yan Ziming's emotions calmed down considerably, and he returned to normal, chatting and laughing with acquaintances.

The acquaintance referred to was naturally Li Haoyi, who also made great contributions to the pioneering work and was nominated for the medal list.

I learned from Li Haoyi that among the pioneers, there are more than 30 superhumans who have been nominated and awarded medals. The lowest level is the sixth level, and the higher level accounts for two-thirds. There are more than three or four eighth level individuals, making it a very powerful lineup.

"Do you see that guy over there? That's my comrade-in-arms, Zhou Huaping. Don't let his young age fool you, he's an eighth-level ability user."

"That guy over there is Murong Haiyi, a civilian superhuman. I partnered with him during the pioneering mission. His attack power is extremely strong, not inferior to yours. The other one is his younger sister, Murong Haixuan, who is one year younger than Murong Haiyi and is at the peak of the sixth rank."

Li Hao carefully introduced Zhou Huaping to Yan Ziming. Zhou Huaping was very tall, over 1.9 meters, close to 2 meters, with a robust physique that gave people a sense of heavy pressure when viewed up close.

As for Murong Haiyi, although this was the second time they had met, the feeling from the last time had not disappeared and had reappeared in Yan Ziming's heart.

Her younger sister, Murong Haixuan, didn't give Yan Zimo the same feeling. With bright eyes and white teeth, arched eyebrows, and an inner spirit, she was also a beautiful woman with long, black hair reaching her waist.

At this moment, even though Yan Ziming was sitting in a corner, their area still became the focus of attention.
