So big... so soft...

As consciousness returned, Qin Xuan found himself pillowed on a pair of fragrant, soft, and supple breasts.

The plush, yielding sensation, mingled with a faint, elegant fragrance, was an experience he savored.

"Ah..."

"Little Xuan, move your hand! Get up, you're crushing me!"

A familiar, gentle cry of alarm came from beneath him, her voice tinged with a mix of shyness and feigned anger.

Qin Xuan, who had been tempted to take further advantage, quickly sat up.

"Wh-where is this?"

Qin Xuan discovered he was in the middle of a boundless ocean. As far as the eye could see, there was nothing but the rippling azure sea.

Beneath his feet was nothing but a 2x3 meter wooden raft.

"Sister Su... what's going on? How did we get here?"

Qin Xuan stared in astonishment at Su Qing, whose face was flushed as she sat up from the raft's surface.

One moment, he had been tutoring Su Qing's daughter, the newly crowned campus belle Su Zhiyun; the next, he had woken up on this raft, his head resting on Su Qing's ample bosom.

Having just gotten off work, she was still in her office attire. Her exquisite, oval-shaped face was like something out of a fine-brush painting, with willow-leaf eyebrows and captivating eyes whose slightly upturned corners held a natural, seductive charm.

A bright white blouse and a hip-hugging black miniskirt perfectly showcased her graceful figure and slender waist.

Her full bust strained against the white fabric, creating a breathtaking curve that threatened to pop the buttons at her collar.

Beneath the skirt were a pair of long, well-proportioned legs wrapped in ultra-thin black stockings, complemented by a pair of black stiletto heels.

Her long, wavy hair, slightly curled, swayed gently in the breeze, making her exude the unique allure of a mature woman.

Though in her thirties, she was wealthy and had maintained herself well; her fair, supple skin looked like that of a woman in her early twenties.

Yet, she possessed a mature, seductive charm that younger women lacked.

"Wh-what is happening?"

Su Qing stood up, gazing at the endless ocean in confusion. Her willow-like brows furrowed slightly, a flicker of worry in her eyes.

"Ah!"

Just as Su Qing found her footing, the raft was rocked by a wave. Unsteady in her high heels, she lost her balance and pitched forward toward the sea.

"Sister Su!"

Qin Xuan lunged forward, grabbing Su Qing's flailing right hand and pulling her into his embrace.

With her warm, fragrant body in his arms, Qin Xuan couldn't help but feel a thrill, even in such a perilous situation.

"Little Xuan, thank you..."

Taking in the strong masculine scent from Qin Xuan, the flustered Su Qing quickly took a step back, her heart pounding as she smoothed her disheveled, wavy hair.

"Mom, Senior Qin!"

"Where are we? How did we get here?"

A clear, melodious voice, like the ringing of a silver bell, came from the edge of the raft.

Dressed in casual loungewear, the short-haired Su Zhiyun rubbed her aching head, looking at her mother and Qin Xuan in confusion.

"Junior Su!"

"We just woke up too. We haven't figured out what's going on yet," Qin Xuan said with a worried frown.

He looked at Su Zhiyun, who had perfectly inherited her mother's beauty and tall, stunning figure, and had been voted campus belle just one month into university.

A strange sense of anticipation rose in Qin Xuan's heart. He hoped that all of this was real and not just a fleeting dream.

If this was all real, then in such a desperate situation, the helpless mother-daughter duo would surely have to rely on him to survive.

Qin Xuan had already thought of the lines he would use.

Sister Su: You wouldn't want your daughter to be thrown off the raft, would you?

Zhiyun: You wouldn't want to watch your mother starve to death, would you?

[Welcome to the Survival Game of the Ocean for All!!!]

[The game includes every person from Blue Star. Power, status, wealth... all will be reshuffled here.]

The cold, mechanical voice boomed in the minds of Qin Xuan, Su Qing, and Su Zhiyun.

"Ocean Survival Game...?"

A look of despair flashed in the eyes of the mother and daughter, Su Qing and Su Zhiyun, as they collapsed weakly onto the raft.

It would have been better anywhere else, but neither of them could swim. In this vast ocean, they feared they wouldn't survive even a single day.

"Ocean survival? A real death game?"

Qin Xuan, who had just been fantasizing about a special amorous encounter with the beautiful mother-daughter pair, stood stunned on the raft. The knowledge that he could never go back sent his mind into a chaotic whirl.

He had read his fair share of apocalypse novels and knew that in this kind of survival game, the hardest part wasn't finding food or dealing with disasters and monsters.

It was the nature of humanity in a world without order.

"Sister Su, Junior Su!"

"This is no time to be upset. We need to start looking for the supplies of food and water that have spawned."

"Otherwise, we won't even make it through the day."

After a long moment, Qin Xuan adjusted his mindset. He picked up the raft's only oar and looked at the pale-faced mother and daughter, who were still sitting limply on the raft.

He had been a nobody on Blue Star anyway. Now that everyone's wealth and power were being reset, putting them all on the same starting line, he would have no one to blame but himself if he couldn't outplay the others.

"Fuck!"

"There's no fucking justice! The three of us guys get stuck together, while that little brat gets two women."

Just as Qin Xuan was organizing Su Qing and her daughter to paddle the raft forward with the waves, an angry man's curse rang out from the sea behind him.

A few dozen meters away, on a raft the same size as Qin Xuan's, sat three burly, dark-skinned, middle-aged men.

Two were in the front, paddling with their hands, while the man in the back used an oar to steer.

"Old Jiang!"

"Wanting those beauties is easy. We just have to snatch them."

"This isn't a society ruled by law anymore. What's there for the three of us to be afraid of?"

"So, are we doing it or not?"

Zhang Chao, the one in the back with the oar, tore his burning gaze away from Su Qing and Su Zhiyun and looked at Jiang Qinfen in front of him.

"Of course!"

"We used to be poor and powerless, stuck working on construction sites, watching those rich guys play with beautiful women."

"Now the whole world's been reset. Survival is all about strength. What the hell is there to be afraid of?"

"Let's do it!" A vicious glint appeared in Jiang Qinfen's eyes as he spoke in a low voice.

"I'm in!" Gu Laomao, sitting next to Jiang Qinfen, replied eagerly with a sinister grin.
