"Dad, I might not be able to go with you."
Zhao Meili lowered her head, her voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz, but every word clearly reached Zhao Shijie's ears.
Zhao Meili knew very well that she was now Ye Lei's woman, and that it was thanks to Ye Lei's help that her father was rescued from his predicament.
From now on, she must obey Ye Lei's arrangements.
Why?
Zhao Shijie's eyes widened, his face full of doubt and confusion.
"I...I want to be with Ye Lei."
Zhao Meili bit her lip and mustered her courage to speak.
Upon hearing this, Ye Lei smiled slightly, thinking to himself: This woman is quite sensible.
"Being with him? That's fine. He is indeed quite capable, so I can rest assured."
Looking at this tall and handsome man, Zhao Shijie sighed inwardly. After his daughter's introduction, he deeply admired Ye Lei's abilities.
"Uncle, don't worry! I will take good care of Meili, and we will come to see you when we have time."
Ye Lei answered solemnly.
"Yes, thank you, Ye Lei."
Zhao Meili raised her head and looked at Ye Lei with gratitude.
Thus, the matter was initially resolved, and both parties reached a consensus.
When they finally returned to Tomato University, Ye Lei was surprised to find Zhou Binhui and his classmates in a tense standoff with a group of zombies led by Gale Leopard!
As soon as the car came to a stop, Zhao Meili couldn't wait to get out and told everyone that she planned to take her father to the faculty and staff dormitory.
Ye Lei nodded in agreement without hesitation—this would actually save him a lot of trouble!
After watching Zhao Meili and her father's figures gradually disappear at the school gate, Ye Lei quickly put the Mercedes SUV into his personal space.
Immediately afterwards, he led Beanna around to behind Zhou Binhui and the others, and at that moment, the other students also saw their arrival.
"Look, Ye Lei is back!"
"Ask him what happened?"
"Where did all these zombies come from?"
"What are these zombies trying to do? Why aren't they attacking us?"
…………
"Zhou Binhui, what are you doing here?"
Ye Lei shouted.
"Ye Lei, you're finally back! Didn't you see all those zombies?"
Zhou Binhui said with lingering fear.
"These zombies are protecting the shelter!"
"Ah! I knew it! When the Skeleton Pirate Legion arrived, they launched an attack, but it seems like they were being controlled by someone!"
After observing for so long, Zhou Binhui also noticed that something was amiss.
"Didn't you see that leopard? That's their leader, and it's under my control, understand?"
Ye Lei gave a brief explanation.
"Now I understand! That explains why these zombies aren't attacking us!"
"Alright, just don't mess with it. Where did those pirates go?"
Ye Lei asked.
"They were all killed by these zombies. We've already cleaned up the battlefield."
"Hmm, well done, keep it up!"
Ye Lei left them two boxes of instant noodles as a reward before taking Beanna up the mountain.
When they returned to the shelter, everyone had been waiting for a long time. Seeing that they were all safe and sound, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Brother Lei, you have no idea how dangerous it is! So many pirates have come!"
"Thanks to Gale Leopard leading so many zombies, otherwise we probably wouldn't have been able to win!"
"I never expected that we would be protected by zombies this time."
"Thanks to Sister Xue'er's composure, she waited until the second-in-command was right in front of her before she started to snatch the weapon. Even if he wanted to run, it was too late!"
"What you've got is nothing compared to the fierce battle we fought at Yunfan Port!"
"Sister Anna, come on, tell us about it."
…………
The faces of the crowd were beaming with victorious smiles, and their hearts were filled with joy and satisfaction.
They chatted excitedly about their battles with the pirates, sharing valuable experiences and profound lessons they had learned.
Ye Lei smiled slightly and did not participate.
For him, there were more important things to deal with now, but he also knew that this adventure was indeed the most thrilling and exciting experience since the apocalypse.
If it weren't for everyone's concerted efforts and united will, it would have been difficult to achieve such a brilliant result. Let these goddesses enjoy this rare and joyful time to the fullest!
So Ye Lei went up the stairs alone to the second floor. He thought to himself that he would first take a nice hot shower to relax his mind and body, and then he would think about that god-level system properly.
After all, the road ahead is long, and we need clear goals and plans to go further. So, what should we do next?
When he opened the system points shop while lying in bed, he suddenly discovered that his points could now be exchanged for the superpower he had always dreamed of—the ability to freeze space.
Without saying a word, he chose to redeem, and soon, the system's voice came through.
[Host, have you now mastered the ability to freeze space?]
Isn't that obvious? Did I exchange it just to look at it?
[Alright, congratulations host, you have successfully mastered the ability to freeze space.]
Yay! He's finally taken another step forward in power, and he can't wait to show off the amazing effects of this ability.
When he came downstairs, everyone was still talking about it. Perfect, let's try out this superpower.
He slowly closed his eyes, concentrated his mind, and activated his special ability, Spatial Stillness!
In an instant, an amazing spectacle unfolded before their eyes, and everyone seemed to be under a spell, frozen in place, unable to move!
At this moment, Chen Xueer's eyes widened and her mouth opened into a big "O" shape, as if she was saying something;
Xia Yuhe stood quietly to one side, a faint smile on her face; Xu Jiao closed her eyes, as if she was about to speak.
The most exaggerated was Cha Murong, who was dancing and extremely excited, waving her arms constantly; while Beina stretched out her fingers and made some incomprehensible gestures.
As for Xiuyan and Tang Xiaoting, they remained silent, listening intently to the others.
Ye Lei strolled leisurely by, then sat comfortably on the sofa, watching the group of goddesses in their various poses with great interest, a smile welling up in his heart.
Before long, time quietly passed, and the effect of the space remaining still disappeared without a trace.
The goddesses seemed to snap out of a dream and resumed their previous heated discussion, and everything returned to its original course.
