The Corner Store Connects to the Apocalypse: Starting with Instant Noodles for Gold

share time: 2026-01-01 00:31:19

Lin Xiaoman, an ordinary office worker, takes over her grandma's shabby corner store. Just as she's about to sell it, she stumbles upon an apocalyptic passage behind the shelves—her first customer is a survivor holding a gold bar, begging for instant noodles! She thinks she's seeing a ghost until she uses the gold to buy milk tea. Thus begins her life as a 'cross-dimensional trader': exchanging sanitary pads for apocalyptic rations, spicy strips for cultivators' spiritual jade, and even winning over Su Xiao, an aloof female warrior, with a cup of hot cocoa. But as transactions pile up, the system behind the passage suddenly issues a task: 'Collect 100 types of real-world supplies, or the passage closes!' Xiaoman is stunned—her 'quick money' scheme is actually the only way to save the apocalypse? And her sweet relationship with Su Xiao, from 'instant noodle buyer' to 'someone who guards the passage with her,' plus the funny moments of being mistaken for a money launderer by bank tellers, makes this apocalyptic counterattack full of both the joy of making money and the warmth of love.
