Chapter 137 Wang Meng's Warning: Has Li Xinran Set Her Sights on the Butler Position?
Wang Xiong dragged his heavy steps and finally knocked on the door of Dormitory 303 on the third floor.
The door quickly opened, revealing Wang Meng's rugged face.
He looked at his tired brother standing at the door, and his brows involuntarily furrowed.
"What do you want? Weren't you always with Li Xinran? Why are you looking for me now?" Wang Meng's tone held clear dissatisfaction.
He had a lot of opinions about his younger brother.
A grown man, acting like a simp, and so shamelessly at that, it was simply ruining his reputation.
The key was that no matter how much he, as an older brother, tried to persuade him, he couldn't move this ultimate simp.
Even a beating was useless, which made him terribly worried.
Wang Xiong lowered his head, his voice a little hoarse: "Brother, Xinran... she has already joined Su Ze, she is Su Ze's woman now."
Wang Meng was stunned, and then a faint trace of joy flashed in his heart.
Finally, he left that Li Xinran!
Wang Meng admitted that the woman was indeed very beautiful, but she was arrogantly disdainful of others.
This kind of woman, only when she met Wang Xiong,
If she had met him, he would have made her regret it in minutes.
Moreover, he had originally intended to deal with her before, at least teach her a lesson.
But after realizing that Su Ze had an interest in her, he became smarter, even warning his subordinates not to approach Li Xinran.
What if she became Su Ze's woman in the future and whispered sweet nothings about him to Su Ze...
Those days would not be easy!
"So?" Wang Meng suppressed his joy, his face expressionless.
"So I want... I want to join you, brother, and move to the third floor." Wang Xiong looked up, a glimmer of hope in his eyes.
Wang Meng pondered for a moment and said, "Alright, I'll arrange it."
He was actually very happy in his heart; his brother had finally come to his senses.
But then, he thought of something else, looked at Wang Xiong, and his tone became serious.
"But brother, you can join, but don't think about getting Li Xinran back. We can't be foolish and provoke Boss Su Ze for a woman."
Hearing this, a trace of resentment and unwillingness flashed in Wang Xiong's eyes, but he helplessly lowered his head and nodded.
How could he not know that?
But he really found it hard to give up...
At this moment, a voice came from behind Wang Meng.
"Brother Wang Xiong, I had Su Meier in my Dormitory before, and she still ended up joining Boss Su Ze. And I was even worse off then, you still don't know what your brother went through? We absolutely cannot be foolish."
Jiang Haiqing had walked over at some point, a hint of world-weariness on his face, and patted Wang Xiong's shoulder.
"The most important thing now is to face reality."
Jiang Haiqing sighed.
Before, he had hated Su Ze to the bone.
Now even Brother Meng had become one of Su Ze's leaders; if he continued to go against him, he would truly be seeking death.
For this, Brother Meng had warned him several times.
Wang Xiong gritted his teeth and nodded again, his voice filled with unwillingness: "I understand.
Wang Meng nodded in satisfaction and patted his shoulder: "Alright, it's good that you've come to your senses. I'll have someone arrange a Dormitory for you later and distribute some basic supplies."
"Tha... thank you, brother." Wang Xiong's voice carried a complex emotion that was hard to describe.
After watching Wang Xiong leave with Wang Meng's subordinate, Jiang Haiqing leaned closer to Wang Meng and whispered, "Boss, can this kid really behave himself?"
Wang Meng snorted coldly: "Whether he behaves or not, he knows in his heart. Anyway, I've said it upfront: if he dares to play any tricks, I'll be the first to cripple him, no need for the boss to act!"
...
Meanwhile, on the other side.
Jiang Yuwan was counting the newly refreshed supplies today. Seeing Su Ze return, she walked over.
"Su Ze, those two materials you mentioned before, Tough Leather and Special Thread, I just checked the supply book, and it seems they're not there."
Su Ze nodded; this was within his expectations.
Materials for rare blueprints wouldn't be so easy to obtain.
"Hmm, I know." Su Ze said, "When you have time, keep an eye out to see if they refresh in the shop, or if there are any other clues."
"Understood." Jiang Yuwan replied.
Su Ze then opened his personal panel and sent a private message to them.
[Su Ze: All leaders, pay attention. Starting today, when you're clearing zombies and searching for supplies, help me look for two materials: Tough Leather * 10, Special Thread * 10.]
As soon as the message was sent, he added another one.
[Su Ze: Additionally, whoever can help me find Treasure Map Fragment will receive an extra heavy reward.]
As soon as these two messages were sent, their hearts stirred instantly.
The ten great leaders, whether the veterans Wang Meng and Zhuang Qianhao, or the newcomers Wu Hailong and Luo Shengyuan, all had their appetites whetted by Su Ze's two messages.
Treasure Map Fragment!
This sounded like something that could change one's destiny!
Perhaps they could use this to obtain a heavy reward from Su Ze and thus distance themselves from the other leaders!
For a time, all the leaders were eager, wishing they could rush out immediately and turn Jinghai University upside down.
After his private chat, Su Ze closed the panel.
He turned to Jiang Yuwan: "Has anything special happened recently?"
Jiang Yuwan thought for a moment and said, "Not yet, everything is proceeding as planned. However..."
She paused, her gaze subtly glancing in Li Xinran's direction, and lowered her voice a few decibels.
"I feel that Miss Li Xinran might be a bit... unaccustomed to our Dormitory life."
Su Ze chuckled softly: "Even if she's unaccustomed, she'll have to get used to it."
He walked over to Li Xinran and saw her organizing a pile of supplies. Her movements were a bit clumsy, but she was quite serious.
"Hey, Su Ze." Suddenly, she stopped what she was doing.
She raised her chin, and that inherent arrogance returned.
"I'm not here to be your laborer."
Li Xinran's voice wasn't loud, but it clearly reached everyone's ears in the Dormitory.
"Organizing these rotten things shouldn't be my job; I'm just helping out today."
Su Ze leaned on the sofa, watching her with interest: "Oh? Then what does our Miss Li think you should be doing?"
Li Xinran's gaze fell unhesitatingly on Jiang Yuwan, who was checking the supply list.
"Management." She said concisely, "Like her, being a chief housekeeper. I think I might be more suitable than her."
As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the Dormitory instantly became somewhat subtle.
