Zara Wants to Join the Team

His criticism naturally had no effect.

Instead, it only fueled Zara's disgust.

Finding Jesse a nuisance, she even considered getting rid of him.

However, Jesse's protagonist halo burst forth. Despite sustaining severe injuries, he didn't die. Moreover, he learned that he had been manipulated by both Bruce and Zara.

Feeling utterly defeated, he pretended to know nothing and returned to the base.

Originally, he had intended to go back to the base and face his demise with Zara. However, during his recovery, he found himself attracted to Cynthia.

Eventually, he gave up on Zara, fell in love with Cynthia, and was willing to stay in Bruce's base for her sake!

As for what happened next, it goes without saying.

In short, in this life, the trajectories of many people's destinies were different from the previous one.

Either they were disrupted by Jesse or by Bruce.

Just like Zara, she was supposed to have her pretentiousness exposed by Jesse four or five days ago.

But because of Bruce, she inexplicably survived until now.

Having experienced the cruelty of the apocalypse for seven days, she even confessed her feelings to Bruce?

Upon hearing Zara's words, the other three women in the dormitory remained silent, while Zara looked at Bruce expectantly.

However, Cynthia's expression was complex.

Because she knew that when Zara mentioned "taking her with him," it wasn't just about providing her with food or water.

It meant allowing her to join Bruce's team.

But according to Bruce's logic in recruiting people, the team didn't need dead weight.

If Zara really couldn't contribute anything and wanted to join Bruce's team, unless there were other awakened individuals willing to take her, it seemed like she really had no other way except using her body?

Letting her become Bruce's girlfriend would make herself very unhappy.

But if she didn't let her join, would she just watch her die?

As Cynthia was lost in thought, Bruce freed himself from Zara's hand and spoke calmly.

"Zara, you're very insightful."

With these words, everyone's hearts tightened.

Bruce continued, "However... Cynthia has a point. You already have Jesse now!"

Zara looked at Bruce with a face full of grievance. "Young Master Bruce, could you please not mention him? Who in the school doesn't know that Jesse and I are just holding hands?"

"But you're still technically his girlfriend..."

"Oh, Young Master Bruce, I see what you're concerned about now!"

Zara suddenly realized, then ignored Cynthia's presence and directly took hold of Bruce's other arm. "

Young Master Bruce, don't worry, I've kept it for the first time!"

"????"

"????"

After Zara said this, everyone looked at her with strange expressions, even Bruce was momentarily stunned.

Because Bruce's original intention was to make Zara think about breaking up with Jesse.

Although it wouldn't affect Jesse at this point, at least it could disgust him a bit if she did it herself.

But who would have thought that this woman would misunderstand the meaning?

But then again, what does she mean by "keeping it for the first time"?

Cynthia, being the obedient type, could be excused for keeping her first time.

But for someone as liberated as Zara to claim to have kept her first time?

It's ridiculous!

You can't fool anyone with that!

"What's wrong, Young Master Bruce!

Don't you believe it? If you don't, we can go to the next dorm and check..." Zara was really bold, speaking without any reservation.

However, it was precisely because of this that Bruce doubted the sincerity in her words.

A woman with such an open personality, still keeping her first time in her third year of college?

What a joke!

In a novel, it might be understandable if the female lead is a virgin. After all, the readers, if not virgins themselves, wouldn't accept it, right?

But an ex-girlfriend being a virgin? This doesn't quite make sense!

Actually, Bruce isn't that conservative in his thinking.

As long as his woman has good character, hasn't cohabited with a man, and hasn't had more than two boyfriends, he can accept it!

Of course, that's talking about the past life.

In this life, with such immense power, he naturally has the right to choose a partner.

Perhaps as long as the woman is attractive enough, he would accept her.

But such a woman would never gain his trust or be valued.For example, Cynthia and Zara.

One is youthful and lovely, gentle and cute.

The other is sexy and charming, passionate and fiery.

Just based on their figures and looks, both of them have their own merits, with little difference between them!

If Cynthia is rated 96 points in Bruce's heart, then Zara would at least get 94 points.

It's just that Cynthia's innocent and sweet appearance, coupled with her gentle personality, is more liked by most guys.

But now... Zara claims she's also a virgin??

"Zara, you... you're bullying people!"

Cynthia was so angry that she was on the verge of tears, unconsciously clutching Bruce's arm tightly.

In dealing with guys, she was obviously no match for Zara.

Hearing Zara being so direct, she felt both afraid and helpless.

She was afraid that Bruce would leave her behind and take Zara to the next room to shower.

"Bullying? How could that be? I just..."

"Alright, Zara, just stop talking for a moment!"

Bruce intervened in time, but his tone was somewhat cold!

Facing such a beautiful woman as Zara and her 'unreasonable' request, even though her personality was a bit problematic, Bruce didn't mind helping her check.

But not at this moment.

And Cynthia, no matter what, is now considered his woman!

Bullying Cynthia in front of him?

This was becoming a bit intolerable.

"Uh... alright..."

Seeing that Bruce's expression wasn't very good, Zara quickly stopped speaking, afraid of angering Bruce.

Bruce didn't say much either, he just took the remaining half of the food back.

After leaving a little for the others, he put it back on his back.

"You all rest for a while, Cynthia and I will go and check nearby..."

"Young Master Bruce... don't leave..."

"Young Master Bruce, what are we going to do if you leave?"

"Yeah! Young Master Bruce, don't leave us..."

"If you really want to leave, take us with you..."

The girls were really scared.The fear they experienced when facing hunger and death was something they never wanted to go through again in their lifetime.

Seeing the nervous expressions of the girls, Bruce remained expressionless.

"I'll be staying next door with Cynthia. If you need anything, just knock on the door, but remember to knock softly, don't attract any monsters!"

"Huh? Is that all?" They felt a bit embarrassed hearing Bruce's words.

Bruce ignored them and left with Cynthia and Ben.

After placing Ben at the entrance of the corridor, Bruce found a relatively clean room and moved in with Cynthia.

Seeing Bruce leave, the girls followed, seemingly afraid that Bruce would take Cynthia away.

Once they saw that Bruce had indeed taken Cynthia to a nearby room, they breathed a sigh of relief.

Until half an hour later, Cynthia's rapid breathing could be heard from the dorm room...

"Huh, looks like Young Master Bruce really isn't leaving!"

"Thank goodness, thank goodness!"

"Zara, you were really bold just now! None of us expected that..."

"Yeah, really! Acting cute in front of Young Master Bruce in front of Cynthia? That took guts!!"

"Well, there's no choice. The outside world is too terrifying!"

Zara regained her composure. "If we want to survive, we have to use every weapon at our disposal. And a woman's most powerful weapon is her own body, isn't it?"

Julia nodded in agreement. "True, but even if I thought about it, Young Master Bruce wouldn't even look at me."

Amanda chuckled. "Well, at least you're self-aware!"

"But on another note, Young Master Bruce's stamina is really something. Cynthia looks so delicate... Can she handle it?"

"That's why Zara took the initiative to help lighten her burden!"

"Go, go, go, you bunch of crazy ladies, you're just like the queens of debauchery."

"Hahaha!!"

With their bellies full and Bruce as their backbone, they were feeling quite content. Their jokes knew no bounds.

But as they heard the flapping of wings outside the window, they jumped in fright and quickly shut their mouths!

That night, the world outside remained desolate.
