Not long after, Xu Ying received another reminder not to go out. However, the person was Dai Shuying, who was in single room number 5. She remembered Wei Mingyue mentioning that this cool Sister Dai Shuying had a military background. However, because Dai Shuying’s schedule seemed to be reversed day and night, Xu Ying registered that she had seen her that day and never saw her again.

At night, Dai Shuying saw Xu Ying standing in the living room and thought that she was going out. She frowned and said, “Don’t leave Peach Blossom Land for the time being. It’s not safe inside and outside the Vermilion Bird Base. Tell the other tenants not to bring strangers in.”

For a moment, Xu Ying felt that Dai Shuying was her superior and felt a little pressured.

“You don’t have the authority to know the details,” Dai Shuying said. After saying that, she lifted her windbreaker and turned around to enter her room.

Xu Ying waited for her to enter the room. She blinked and sent a message to Wei Qiyan: [Do you know Dai Shuying? It was the tall and thin one. She was very cold, but she was a good person.]

Wei Qiyan, who was watching the surveillance cameras with the City Defense Army, felt a little amused when he saw the message.

He replied: [Dai Shuying is the deputy commander of the City Defense Army. She is responsible for the defense and monitoring of the entire base.]

Xu Ying saw the reply. No wonder Dai Shuying spoke so strongly. It turned out that she was used to giving orders at work. However, she still accepted this kind gesture. Then, she told the tenants not to go out for the time being. It was not peaceful outside recently.

Most of them were still quite scared and said that they would go home as soon as possible. However, a pair of Chu brothers and a middle-aged woman in a single room didn’t take it seriously.

“We brothers have superpowers. Zombies can’t get close to us. “Miss Xu, don’t worry.” Brother Chu dared to say.

“The Wasteland Reclaimers and the City Defense Army have offered us an olive branch,” Chu Gandang said. “It’s just that we don’t like to be tied down. Otherwise, we would have been given military ranks long ago. Don’t worry!”

The middle-aged woman, Mei Luoyan, didn’t think it was a big deal. “The Vermilion Bird Base is so big and densely populated. If there are zombies, it will cause a commotion among the people. I can just run away as soon as I see them. Little girls like to make a fuss.”

Xu Ying was speechless. Since he was not afraid of death, then so be it. “Alright, don’t bring strangers to Peach Blossom Land.”

The three of them readily agreed.

Xu Ying didn’t say anything else and finished decorating the third apartment. Then, she released the rental information for two one-bedroom and one-living rooms.

The next day, the smart butler kept ringing. There was no other way. The standard of the one-bedroom and one-living room was too good. It was cost-effective, and the renovation and living facilities were complete. Naturally, there were more people snatching it. Eighty to ninety percent of the applicants were newlyweds. Xu Changkai and his girlfriend, Xiao Mei, were also among them.

“You promised me that you would be able to live in Peach Blossom Land before we got married. Now it’s less than a month away from the wedding date. I heard today that there are no more double rooms left. There are only two sets left. There are so many people applying. Let me tell you, if we don’t have a house, I won’t get married to you!” Xiao Mei straightened her neck and questioned.

“I’ll buy something tomorrow and go to Peach Blossom Land.” Xu Changkai was upset. “I’ll definitely let you live in a new house!”

Was he planning to give her a gift? Xiao Mei was stunned. She mumbled, “You should give me a gift, but you don’t have to pay for it. Your father, your stepmother hasn’t even contributed to your marriage yet…” She was only scaring him by saying that she didn’t want to get married, so all of Xu Changkai’s money was hers.

Xu Changkai was extremely annoyed, but he also guaranteed that this matter would definitely be completed.

The next morning, Yao Shuang arrived with her two children in tow, her entire body exuding the yearning and joy of a new life.

At this time, a large group of people had gathered at the entrance of Peach Blossom Land before dawn. Yao Shuang, who saw the big and small bags, quickly surrounded them. “Are you the new tenant of Peach Blossom Land? Can I ask for the landlord’s contact information?”

“Is the landlord here in Peach Blossom Land? Can you help us contact her? Money is not a problem!”

“I brought some gifts and want to see the landlord. If it’s convenient for you, can you give me a message? You don’t have to stand on ceremony. Two bottles of soda for the children …”

“What conditions did you have to stay here? Why can’t I apply for it many times? What’s the difference?”

..

Yao Shuang was surrounded by people. She didn’t dare to take any of the items, and her joy was immediately replaced by fear. She grabbed the two children and ran away as if she was running for her life.

The AI butler recognized Yao Shuang and only let her and the two children in. The rest of the people were still blocked outside the door.
