Chapter 2: Bound to the Rental House System
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
[Binding successful. Please accept.]
In an instant, a room card appeared in Xu Ying's hand, and a transparent panel appeared in front of her. A 3D rotating house with one bedroom and one living room appeared on it. She widened her eyes in disbelief. Was she really not hallucinating?
[Host, please arrive at the property location as soon as possible and accept the novice mission. This way, you can achieve the happiness of owning a house as soon as possible!]
Xu Ying came back to her senses and looked at the room card in her hand. As she listened to the childish voice in her mind, she felt dizzy. She looked at the address on the back of the room card. It felt a little familiar. It seemed to be near the Vermilion Bird Base.
"Dong dong dong!" There was an impatient knock on the door and Wei Jiaxi's impatient urging, "What are you doing? Hurry up and pack your things to report. Take all your things with you. If you can't take them with you, throw them away. You won't be a hassle again when we use the toilet in the future!"
Xu Ying put away the room card and opened the door. She looked at the person outside the door expressionlessly.
"You've collected all of the stuff? Then why are you still standing there? You're just a burden, yet you are so annoying." Wei Jiaxi sized her up and immediately started mocking her.
Xu Ying walked over with a cold face. Under Wei Jiaxi's stunned gaze, she used all her strength to slap Wei Jiaxi. Since she had decided to draw a clear line with this family, then before she left, she had to take revenge!
The sound of a slap not only dispersed the grievance in Xu Ying's heart but also made her feel very comfortable. She had wanted to do this for a long time! How awesome!
"Xu Ying! You little slut, how dare you hit me!" Wei Jiaxi's voice was about to burst. She left her daughter, Yu Xiaohua, who was crying in fear, and was about to pounce on Xu Ying.
Xu Ying slapped her again. "You're the last person in this family who has the right to call me a burden!" If it wasn't for Mom's favoritism and bringing your family of trash over, you wouldn't even know where you would be wandering! Maybe you would have been eaten by zombies long ago. And that useless husband of yours, every time he sees me, he's so disgusting. Only you treat that trash like a treasure!"
Shi Qinfeng sobbed, "You two sisters shouldn't say such things… Ying, what are you doing? You've made a mess at home!"
Xu Ying seemed to have heard the funniest thing. "Did I mess up the house? This family was a mess from the start! From today onwards, I have no brothers, sisters, or parents! Just pretend that you never gave birth to me. In the future, when you see me, treat me as a stranger." After she finished speaking, she ignored Wei Jiaxi's murderous gaze and took her identification card and a set of clothes to change into before leaving without looking back.
"She wants to cut ties with us! She hates us! " Shi Qinfeng cried as she slapped her chest.
Wei Jiaxi covered his swollen face and gritted his teeth. "It's fine if she doesn't have a conscience. Without her father and brothers, how can she not survive in the Vermilion Bird Base? In the end, you still have to come and beg us! Mom, when the time comes, you can't be soft-hearted anymore. Look at how much she has spoiled you. You heartless thing!"
The only response to Wei Jiaxi was Shi Qinfeng's crying.
..
Xu Ying followed the address on the door card and found her house. It was at the northern gate of the Vermilion Bird Base, which was also the most common entrance for the Wasteland Reclaimers. There was a large piece of land that had been surrounded by someone. It was at least 3,000 square meters.
Xu Ying was completely dumbfounded. She knew this place because she grew up in the Vermilion Bird Base and had heard about it from the old people in the base. This piece of land had appeared overnight as if it had suddenly landed. There were no signs, no warnings, and nothing terrifying had appeared. Every inch of land in the Vermilion Bird Base was worth a fortune. Even her father's 60-square-meter house cost 6000 base contribution points and 50 million gold coins. Contribution points were even rarer than gold coins.
Therefore, the 3,000 square meters of empty land in front of her could not be described as a huge sum of money. Countless people coveted it. However, even the highest-ranking officer of the base did not dare to touch it. It was surrounded by a high wall and an electric fence. Without an access card, even powerful zombies and mutated beasts couldn't enter, let alone humans. Once they burst into the place, they would be reduced to ashes.
But now, this piece of land had inexplicably become hers, Xu Ying's? She swallowed her saliva and walked through the door. She picked up the room card given to her by the system and swiped it at the sensor at the door.
"My lovely and beautiful master, welcome home."
