Chapter 99 Invitation, the Sixth Tenant: Qiao Yunge!

As soon as these words were spoken, the air in the entire corridor seemed to have been sucked dry.

Everyone was stunned.

No one had expected that Qiao Yunge, famously proud and radiant, would speak so bluntly and directly in front of so many people.

Is she crazy?!

"Sis!"

Qiao Yunfeng and his two cousins' eyes nearly popped out of their sockets as they stared at their sister in shock, their minds completely blank.

Facing the dozens of stunned, shocked, and amused gazes in the corridor, Qiao Yunge didn't retreat. Instead, she stubbornly lifted her chin.

She stared fixedly at Su Ze, her eyes rimmed red, but her voice grew clearer, carrying a tremble of self-righteousness.

"At first, I admit I was unwilling!"

"But later... I discovered how outstanding you are."

"Isn't it normal for me to fall for a man as capable as you?!"

Qiao Yunge's voice echoed through the corridor.

"Don't other girls want to be your woman and live in the best Dormitory in the whole building?"

"Others just don't dare say it, or... don't have the qualifications to say it!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of dozens of girls in the crowd, including Liu Yuanfang, Lin Shiyu, and Li Jiaxin, instantly became awkward.

Their eyes darted away, and blushes crept onto their faces.

Indeed... they all wanted to.

Even back when the survival game had just begun.

Lin Shiyu and Li Jiaxin had mustered the courage to approach Su Ze, only to be dismissed with the icy words, "not pretty enough."

Now, this opportunity had been placed back on the table by Qiao Yunge in a way they wouldn't have dared to imagine.

Wang Meng, Xu Feng, and the other boys now wore expressions of extreme complexity.

They had to admit that what Qiao Yunge said was true.

Which woman wouldn't want to be with a powerhouse like Su Ze, who had more supplies than he could use and strength terrifying enough to crush everyone?

To become his woman meant safety and abundance.

In this apocalyptic world, that was a luxury more precious than anything else.

Jiang Yuwan's cool, aloof face showed a flicker of surprise.

Still, this dog man certainly had the capital for it.

Liu Qiaofei watched in a daze, her big eyes full of admiration, and muttered softly.

"Senior Qiao is so brave... but Senior Su Ze really is the most outstanding. It's completely normal for many girls to like him."

Su Meier, leaning seductively to the side, suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis rise within her.

Would the Landlord kick me out and give my spot to this long-legged campus belle?

As for Yao Qingya, she just stood there quietly.

The hand hidden in her sleeve was clenched so tightly it had turned pale. The sour, astringent feeling in her heart threatened to drown her.

Qiao Yunge's brother and cousins exchanged glances, which ultimately turned into bitter smiles.

What else could they do at this point?

Qiao Yunfeng hesitated for a moment, but finally, for his sister's sake, he steeled himself, stepped forward, and pleaded with Su Ze:

"Big Brother Su Ze, my sister... that's just how she is. Please don't take it to heart... Could you... maybe give her a chance..."

Su Ze looked at Qiao Yunge's stubborn yet aggrieved expression, tears welling in her eyes but refusing to fall.

The surprise in his eyes gradually transformed into a thick amusement.

He hadn't expected this Qiao Yunge to truly have a personality of daring to love and hate.

Interesting.

He spoke with a laugh, a hint of helplessness in his voice, "Alright, alright, I'll stop teasing you."

"I promised to save a tenant spot for you, and I definitely will."

As his words fell, Qiao Yunge's eyes instantly widened, her face filled with disbelief and joy.

But the next second, her joy turned into guilt.

She instinctively looked towards An Lan, who had remained expressionless beside Su Ze the entire time.

"Then... what about her?"

Everyone's gaze focused on Su Ze again, seemingly waiting to see how he would make this either-or choice.

An Lan's eyelashes fluttered slightly. Her expression remained as calm as still water as she spoke indifferently, "I can return to my original Dormitory."

Hearing this, a flicker of hope crossed the faces of Xu Feng and the others.

However, Su Ze suddenly laughed.

He reached out, wrapping one arm around An Lan beside him.

With his other hand, he pulled the still-unreacting Qiao Yunge into his embrace with an air of irrefutability.

"Who said having you means I can't have her?"

Under everyone's astonished gaze, Su Ze's voice carried a tone of natural, domineering certainty.

"Only children make choices."

"I want them all."

As soon as these words were spoken, an uproar swept through the crowd.

All of them?

How is that possible?

A Dormitory can hold a maximum of six people. With An Lan, it's already full!

Does he want to keep extra people in another Dormitory, like the 8th-floor Dormitory 811?

But that's a completely different concept from being a tenant!

Just as everyone was puzzled, they saw a faintly glowing card materialize in Su Ze's hand.

A tenant addition card!

With a thought, he directly chose to use it!

"Ding!"

The card transformed into a stream of light, instantly merging into Su Ze's body and disappearing.

The others had no idea what had happened; they only saw a flash of light.

Su Ze looked down at the equally bewildered Qiao Yunge in his arms and said with a smile, "Transfer the landlord position of your Dormitory 100 to your brother."

"Now, I invite you."

Though filled with confusion, Qiao Yunge instinctively complied.

The very second after she transferred her landlord status, a cold system notification sounded clearly in her mind.

[Ding! Player 'Su Ze' invites you to join the 4th Floor - Dormitory 404. Do you agree?]

Qiao Yunge's body stiffened abruptly. She looked up at Su Ze in shock.

She... she actually received an invitation?!

How is this possible?!

Seeing her shocked expression, the smile on Su Ze's face deepened.

"From start to finish, I never said I didn't want you."

What a joke. The Burst bond was not to be missed...

So that's how it is...

Hearing Su Ze's words, a tremendous wave of joy and relief instantly filled Qiao Yunge's heart.

She could no longer hold back, burying her head in Su Ze's chest, her voice carrying a hint of a sob and a coquettish tone.

"I... I thought you didn't want me anymore..."

Watching the radiant campus belle Qiao Yunge truly get invited to join and show such a delicate, feminine side for the first time in Su Ze's embrace...

Everyone around was utterly dumbfounded.

One Dormitory... six tenants?!

No, including the landlord, that's seven people?!

Ignoring everyone's shock, Su Ze leaned close to Qiao Yunge's ear again and whispered a few more words.

The Qiao Yunge in his arms felt her ear tips burning as if about to drip blood.

But she still nodded shyly and obediently replied, "Mmm, then you... must be gentle..."

Having soothed the newly acquired campus belle, Su Ze finally held her.

He lifted his head and cast his gaze towards Wang Meng, who had been standing not far away since earlier, posture humble.

Wang Meng's heart tightened. He knew it was his turn.

He hurriedly stepped forward, bowed deeply, adopting a posture lower than ever before.

"Boss Su Ze!"

This address of "Boss" came out incredibly smoothly, devoid of any trace of the previous reluctance and defiance.

"Before... it was my indecisiveness, my failure to recognize true greatness, my lack of understanding!"

Wang Meng's voice was full of remorse and sincerity.

"I've decided now! I'm willing to cooperate according to your terms. No, even if the terms were twice as harsh, I'd have no complaints! I only hope Boss Su Ze can give us a chance!"

He lifted his head, his eyes filled with hope and entreaty.

"If possible, from now on, I, Wang Meng, and my brothers here, will follow Boss Su Ze's lead without question!"
