“Do you see that piece of land in the east?” the cashier asked her. Someone saw the shop open? What about the price? Can ordinary people afford it? Did you know?”

Xu Ying didn’t expect that someone would pay attention to it in just one day. She said generously, “You can afford it, depending on what you need. A single room of ten square meters with no living facilities. It’s only three thousand gold coins. You don’t need contribution points. ”

The monthly income of the Vermilion Bird Base was 8000 coins per person, so 3000 coins weren’t considered high.

As expected, the cashier was very happy. He asked many other questions, and Xu Ying answered them one by one. After hearing the news, this cashier immediately dialed his communicator, seemingly calling his family.

Xu Ying smiled. It seemed that everyone’s demand for housing was still very high. She had to get a few more rooms. She was very happy. She took the rice and planned to go to a corner where no one was and directly teleport back to Peach Blossom Land.

Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind him. “Ying?”

She turned around and saw that it was her scumbag father who pretended to be deaf and mute to everything.

Xu Yongzhong was dressed decently and cleanly, and there were colleagues who were dressed similarly beside him.

Xu Ying originally planned to ignore him, but who knew that her colleague at the side said, “Old Xu, is this your youngest daughter who volunteered to join the Wasteland Reclaimers? This … She has just come of age. How can you and your wife bear to do that? My daughter is already in her thirties. I don’t even dare to let her leave the base alone! The world is so chaotic now.”

Xu Yongzhong’s expression changed immediately. “It was Ying who insisted on joining the army. She has been wild since she was young. Now that the child has grown up, as parents, we have to support her decision.”

Xu Ying almost vomited.

The colleague smiled at each other and didn’t say anything. As for Xu Yongzhong, his reputation for not caring about his family and his daughter had long spread in private.

Xu Yongzhong was embarrassed. He forced a smile and asked Xu Ying, “How have you been recently? Do you need Daddy’s help?”

Xu Ying thought about it and immediately squeezed out two drops of tears.” Dad…There are still two days before the Wasteland Reclaimers’ physical examination. Ever since I was chased out of the house, I have no place to stay. After you went home with Mom, Brother, and Sister, I secretly followed behind and slept at your door at night. Before you guys went out, I left quickly, afraid that you would find me annoying…”

“Old Xu, aren’t you going overboard?” said one of the colleagues

“That’s right. How much food can a girl eat? Do you have to do that? She’s not your biological daughter?”

Xu Yongzhong’s expression was ugly, but he still maintained his dignity and said, “I don’t know about this. My wife takes care of everything at home. I’ll definitely ask her when I get back. Ying, I’ve made you suffer. Take some money and stay outside for a few days. When this matter is clarified, I’ll bring you back.”

Then, he transferred 3000 gold coins.

Xu Ying pretended to sob, feeling disgusted. Renting a house in the base was not her Peach Blossom Land. 3,000 gold coins and contribution points were also required. However, he would not mention this matter at all.

Xu Yongzhong promised. “If you have any difficulties, just call me. If you don’t want to join the army, I’ll spend money to get you out of it.”

Xu Ying thought he was lying. All these years, she had seen clearly how he had turned a blind eye to her being bullied. Xu Yongzhong believed a daughter could not compare to a son. When she grew up, she could no longer trust him.

As soon as she got the money, Xu Ying said a few fake words of thanks and turned to leave. She really did not want to see her so-called family for even a second.

When she returned to Peach Blossom Land, there were indeed a few people watching outside the door. Xu Ying allowed them to look at her from outside. She entered the house and pushed the door open to see Su Wei holding the door as he came out. His left eye must have been injured, and he had a mechanical prosthetic eye installed. This was something that only appeared after the apocalypse.

“Are you the landlord here?” Su Wei frowned.

Xu Ying knew that she didn’t look like someone who could own such a big house, so she nodded nonchalantly. “Yes, your captain paid you five days’ rent. You can stay here in peace for the next few days and don’t go out and run around. I will bring you your food every day.”

“They went to take revenge on their own and left me behind,” Su Wei cursed. She looked around and didn’t see a table. She sat on the ground and finished eating.

“Throw it in the bag after you’re done eating. I’ll clean it up.”

“How old are you?” Su Wei nodded and asked her. “Where are your parents?”

“I’m eighteen, ” Xu Ying said expressionlessly. “My parents are both dead. ”

Su Wei didn’t say anything else. Many people lost their parents in the apocalypse. “What superpower do you have?”
