Apocalypse: My Apartment Has Traits - Chapter 142 - 126: The Second Tenant (4K Combined)_3
Chapter 142: Chapter 126: The Second Tenant (4K Combined)_3
“Are you willing to be my tenant?”
“I…”
Song Yiyi’s cherry lips parted slightly, instinctively hugging her arms around herself, like a little girl suddenly bereft of support, lost and helpless.
Seeing her like this, Su Lin decisively slapped his forehead and directly summoned the House Title Deed.
He didn’t hesitate any longer, suddenly reaching out with undeniable force, grabbing Song Yiyi’s slender wrist.
“Ah!” Song Yiyi exclaimed in surprise, unprepared.
Without giving her a chance to refuse, Su Lin pressed her hand onto the House Title Deed, his tone resolute:
“Since your sister entrusted you to me, there’s no need to ask you anymore. Now, immediately, become my tenant!”
The pages flashed with light as Song Yiyi’s information was instantly imprinted on the tenant page.
“You!”
Song Yiyi looked up abruptly, her eyes wide as she glanced at Su Lin, ready to voice her loud protest. But as their eyes met, the words got stuck in her throat.
A moment later, she managed to complain meekly:
“You… you forced me! I didn’t agree!”
Su Lin put away the House Title Deed, the light fading, and a meaningful smile played on his lips as he remained silent.
Beside him, Su Tongxi spoke softly:
“Sister Yiyi, if the tenant itself doesn’t agree, simply pressing the hand on the document is useless…”
Hearing this, Song Yiyi was utterly stunned, her face written with astonishment, and then it flushed a deep red.
Su Tongxi turned to Su Lin, voicing her concern:
“Brother Kirin, shouldn’t we consult Uncle Qi first?”
“No need.” Su Lin decisively shook his head, his eyes profound. “At this point, the more mysterious and powerful she appears, the less it’s a bad thing for us, and it might even be… a kind of backing.”
When the gap in strength is slight, goodwill might be a trap;
But when the gap is as vast as the Grand Canyon.
Song Yiren’s inscrutable way of leaving, along with her own admission about Martial Seal’s nomination in Zhoushan Town.
In that case, seeing her as a “mountain” worth relying on is the wisest choice.
He didn’t doubt the truth of Song Yiren’s words.
Or rather, Song Yiren’s explanation solved his initial puzzlement—how had Ni Yan, a chance acquaintance, suddenly nominated Martial Seal?
If Song Yiren were indeed the city-level figure behind Martial Seal’s nomination, it all truly made sense!
Su Lin’s gaze returned to Song Yiyi, contemplative.
“Perhaps her intentionally leaving Yiyi behind is also a form of appeasement… or, a pledge? But what exactly does she see in me?”
He couldn’t help but think of the information from Uncle’s disciple, Zhang Xin:
Song Yiren is staunchly retro.
Could she truly be, as Zhang Xin described, part of a “cult”?
Then could it be…
He himself was the so-called “proxy of the divine” that these people were seeking?
Song Yiren referred to Ni Yan as “that girl,” do they know each other?
Ni Yan also inclines towards the retro, could they be of the same faction?
Countless questions like tangled threads instantly filled Su Lin’s mind, causing a vexing headache.
“But no matter what.”
Su Lin took a deep breath, temporarily pushing the chaotic thoughts to the core:
“Having gained so much from Song Yiren, and being entrusted with her sister… in some sense, I’ve unexpectedly found myself clinging to a golden opportunity. But…”
Song Yiren’s reluctance to engage with him further, even withholding her real identity, was likely due to his weakness.
Perhaps this was Song Yiren’s way of protecting him?
Su Lin’s eyes abruptly turned sharp and determined, as if to pierce through the fog before him:
“To strike while the iron is hot, one must be strong! If I am powerful, all problems can be easily solved!”
Su Lin’s gaze swept over Song Yiyi, who kept her head down, almost wishing to hide herself.
The second tenant is now in place.
The second main material needed for the rare Bamboo Pole Blade has also been obtained.
All materials for constructing the Giant Beast Hunting Beehive are fully prepared.
In four days, it will be time to upgrade to a Level 4 Safe House.
He should focus on improving himself!
