"Youyou, dont blame mom for being heartless, its really out of options. We only have two rooms for eight people. Since you have the chance to follow the Pioneer Team out, with food and accommodation provided, and I heard theres even dormitories. Such good conditions, you should go..."
You An had a premonition but still felt distressed: "Mom, I dont have any special abilities, and Ive never left the base since I was little. Following the Pioneer Army out..."
Its either death or disability.
In the twentieth year of the apocalypse, major bases have gradually been established, providing food and protection from zombie and mutant attacks, causing survivors to flock in.
To survive, everyone is desperate to enter the base, leading to a dramatic population increase and a shortage of land.
You Ans father, being an early engineer involved in base construction, was fortunate to be allocated a 60-square-meter, two-bedroom apartment.
Technically, their family of three could live comfortably.
However, You Ans father and mother are a blended family, each having children from previous marriages.
You Ans father, Howard An, feeling bad for his two sons with his ex-wife having no place to stay, brought the young men to his newly allocated house.
Seeing this, Yvette Li, feeling, also brought her eldest daughter from her previous marriage to live with them, Serena Jiang, You Ans half-sister.
She also brought along Serenas husband and their three-year-old daughter.
A 60-square-meter apartment housed eight people.
Not only did You An not have her own room, but she was also forced to sleep in the cramped, dark bathroom, where it was not only gloomy and damp but also had the toilet right next to her bed.
Every time Serena came to the bathroom, she would scold her for being in the way, calling her a burden.
With so many people at home, there were many conflicts, and there was no peace.
Plus, the government issued a policy that each household must send one adult laborer to join the Pioneer Army, or else their housing would be revoked.
You An was the one pushed out.
Yvette Li, with red eyes:
"Youyou, mom really has no other way, your sister has a child, I cant let her go, your two brothers also have stable jobs at the base, providing most of the familys income, your dad would definitely not agree..."
You An, feeling hopeless, turned and entered the cramped, dark bathroom, closing the door to block out her mothers voice.
There was nothing to miss about this home; joining the army, even if it meant being disabled, would be better than being abandoned and stabbed in the back by her closest family.
She had little to pack, owning very few things, only taking a change of clothes.
At this moment, a cold, mechanical voice suddenly sounded in her mind:
"Energy collected, loaded successfully."
You An: "?"
What is this? Hallucination?
"Does the host agree to bind with the Landlady System? After binding, you will be given a one-bedroom, one-living room basic property for personal use."
You An was in a daze, a bit confused about the situation, and seemed to only hear the words "gift of property" in her mind.
A house!
She had always dreamed of having her own house.
No more sleeping in the bathroom, no more noise from others, peace, and a place to stand.
Subconsciously, she thought that even if it was a hallucination or daydream, let alone binding to some system, she would agree to fight zombies up close right now.
"Binding successful, please receive it."
Instantly, You An held a room card in her hand, and a transparent panel appeared in front of her, showing a 3D rotating one-bedroom, one-living room house.
You Ans eyes widened, as if in a dream.
Its really not a hallucination or daydream, is it?
"Please arrive at the property location as soon as possible to receive the novice task."
You An came back to her senses, looking at the room card in her hand, which had an address on the back.
She took a close look and felt familiar with the address, as if it were around Sunny Base.
"Knock knock knock"
There was a violent knock on the door, and Serenas impatient urging:
"Hurry up and pack up and report, youre always dawdling, take all your stuff, and if you cant take it, throw it away, youre always in the way when you go to the bathroom."
You An endured, put away the room card, and suddenly opened the door.
"Done packing? What are you standing there for if youre done? You eat so much but never move quickly."
You An, with a cold face, walked over, and in Serenas stunned gaze, slapped her.
Since she decided to cut ties with this family.
Then, she should take revenge before leaving!
"Slap", not only dispersed the grievances in You Ans heart but also brought a strange sense of relief.
She had wanted to do this for a long time!
"You An! How dare you hit me!" Serenas voice was about to break, and she was about to pounce on You An to fight.
You An, without saying a word, slapped her again:
"Im hitting you because you are the least qualified to say Im eating for free in this family! If it werent for mom favoring you since you were little and bringing your family of three over, you wouldnt know where youd be wandering at this time!"
Yvette Li cried, "Sisters shouldnt say such things..."
You An seemed to hear the funniest joke: "From today on, I have no brothers or sisters, no parents! Thats it, from now on, when we meet, we are strangers, dont say hello to me."
With that, ignoring Serenas murderous gaze, she quickly went back to get her ID card and the only set of clothes she had, put them in her bag, and left the house without looking back.
Yvette Li cried so hard she could hardly catch her breath: "Is she... is she going to cut off relations with us?"
Serena, holding her red face, hated to say: "If such a conscienceless one wants to cut off, let her cut off. See if she can survive in Sunny Base without dad and brothers care, and without a place to live! In the end, shell have to beg us!"
