'It's just as beautiful as it was'

Lu haoyu let out a sigh, his eyes trained on the night sky. Funny enough he had never noticed or appreciated this sort of beauty in his past life, until the apocalypse.

His focus altered by the ring of a phone, the original hosts to be precise.

"Monster! Where the hell are my chips."

Someone yelled from the other side, that particular someone being, lu Delun, the second older brother to the original host, who liked to taunt and bully the original host at every mistake that wasn't really a mistake, just an excuse to hurt the original host for being an illegitimate child.

" You've eaten it?! You're so dead!"

Lu Delun was obsessed with sour chips, the sourest, especially when he was cranky. The chip being too sour fell out of favour, hence sales was low, most stores refused to sell it. The original host had to walk miles, because he was denied to use the family car, and he had no money.

"No!" Lu haoyu said after the long rants and threats which didn't move lu haoyu a bit. " And besides second older brother." He drawled, not attempting to hide his boredom. "The card's mine." He flipped the gold card.

It was originally the original host's, the nonchalant father had given it to him, perhaps money might fill his absence in the child's life. It was seized by lu Delun the next day.

' what?! How dare you-" lu Delun screeched, his voice held a tinge of surprise.

"Don't worry, second older brother, I'll bring your sour chips." With that he cut the call muttering  ' Diâosiunder his breath, irritated.

He switched off the phone, for a kid with a diamond king as a father, the original host used a miserable phone, he could barely see through the ink stained screen, even the phones used in the apocalypse were way much better.

Removing the sim, he threw the phone in a corner. Flipping the gold card in the air, he walked off. New body, new lifestyle.

" Clothes ✔️ Car✔️ Body care✔️ ..."

He had combed the best stores, jewelry store, the best boutiques, best spa, everything in just a day, which might have being almost impossible for a normal human.

Something was missing but what exactly, he couldn't tell. His eyes brightened as his eyes fell on a kid moaning at the the taste of scallion pancakes.  That was it! Food!

How could he have forgotten. The smile never leaving his face he drove almost crazily to the nearest food store. - perhaps his food fantasy in the apocalypse could come true.

****

He couldn't get enough, his eyes romed over the veggies section, the images of food he'll make all day on his mind, perhaps he make some for old lu.

Old lu wasn't her real name, just an adapted name. Her real name, she herself couldn't remember. She was one of the oldest, longest serving help in the lu villa, she was retained for the quality of her impeccable service, even when hundreds were fired for the littlest of mistakes.

She was the only one who treated the original host like a human, more like a son.

'hey!'

' ...'

Lu haoyu packed the goodies that fell of his cart not paying attention to the person the person he bumped into, not that he needed to anyways.

" Hey have you gone dumb, you hit me, you should apologize." The person yelled, frustrated.

Lu haoyu finally raised his gaze. The other person froze at the murderous intent in lu haoyu's eyes.

" You shouldn't put the blame on others when you're obviously at fault, asshole. Your mother must have ate the wrong medicine, cos she gave birth to a stupid son."

With that he walked off, leaving the other shocked speechless. An evil smirk made its way to lu haoyu's face,  that was Feng zhiyu, the first male lead, the original host's abusive husband...

Finally updated, awfully short right. I borrowed a phone to update, couldn't resist.
