I Am the Only Fertile Woman in the Game-Chapter 70: Bold Idea
Qiao Suisui closed her eyes wearily and said, "I truly didn't intend that."
Zong Fang frowned at her, his expression shifting unpredictably. Although he had long known that she had deceived him repeatedly before, he still chose to trust her.
"What then did you mean by staying with me in space just now?"
"Not wanting you to be alone, not wanting to watch you die with my eyes open does not mean I want to marry you."
Qiao Suisui pulled away her hand and slowly walked upstairs, too drained to explain any further.
She had been seeking a way to survive in this world but had her own convictions. Since it was a game world, she could forget her own principles, but whenever she interacted with them for long, she would forget that the world she was in wasn't real. Whether it was Zong Fang, Ruka, or Leberli, they were flesh and blood; they had emotions, ideas, and thoughts. Every moment with them felt so real, so real that a slight misstep would endanger her heart.
If it weren't for Gorba III threatening her with Ruka's future, Qiao Suisui wouldn't have agreed to marry Lanze. Furthermore, once this matter was opened up, it would lead to a situation that needed constant balancing afterward. There was no need to mention Zong Fang; he found it difficult to accept other males. Although Leberli didn't show it overtly, Qiao Suisui had an intuition that Leberli would not let her continue to take spouses freely. The only one among them who had the highest tolerance, Ruka, was the most likely to accept this arrangement. Still, the thought of him being in solitary sorrow was something Qiao Suisui could hardly bear.
She finally understood the troubles of ancient emperors with three thousand in their harem...
Qiao Suisui locked herself in the master bedroom and bolted the door. That night, Ruka, Leberli, and Zong Fang all visited, but nobody could enter.

The next day when she went downstairs, she thought they would all be out busying themselves with their own matters, only to find the three men sitting at the dining table, focusing their gaze on her the moment she descended.
The moment Ruka saw her, he noticed her eyes were slightly bloodshot, clearly from a lack of sleep the night before. He placed porridge in front of her and said gently, "Have something to eat."
Zong Fang remained silent, sitting at the farthest corner from her, his expression cold and severe, probably still angry about last night's incident.
Leberli, dressed in court attire, had guards come to urge him three times, all dismissed with a wave of his hand. Now, he leisurely accompanied Qiao Suisui for breakfast, his usual smile returning, though it did not reach his eyes. "Eat up, and then I'll take you out for a walk. Didn't you want to go to school? Last night, I arranged for you to attend the best school in Auslan."
Qiao Suisui looked up with her spoon in hand, somewhat surprised that he had conceded. "Good, I had planned to visit the school today."
The reason for her lack of sleep was that she had been researching on the Light Computer, learning about the Federation's educational resources all night. The most famous in Auslan was the Empire Military Academy, which Ruka had also graduated from. This school was not easy to enter, only admitting those with especially high spiritual power, exceptional Talent, or those who were descendants of major families. Students graduating from here were mostly assigned to the Federation's administration and various systems, part of the highly skilled workforce, but there were no females among them.
The neighboring Atlantis Academy was also very famous and unlike the Empire Military Academy, they had a special female academy, separate from the main campus, luxuriously decorated. There, they offered each female individualized and group courses in skills like floral arts, tea ceremony, and fashion design—these were relaxed courses with no evaluation criteria. From teaching assistants to professors, the education was encouragement-based love. Moreover, they hosted grand birthday parties for each female and gave lavish gifts during festivals.
She thought what Leberli was referring to must be Atlantis Academy, this school being under Auslan's jurisdiction, although a bit far from the Imperial Court. It seemed Leberli had made a significant concession.
However, this school did not meet Qiao Suisui's goals.
She was looking for a place that truly taught something, a place to enhance her abilities. Clearly, Atlantis Academy was good, but it only taught superficial things. Their educational policy for females was based on freedom and joyful growth. Qiao Suisui longed for such a life, but she had to choose a more difficult path.
There was another one even farther away in the Federation's Central Star System. It took a day by Flying Ship, and that was the Interstellar Strategy Academy.
This school was among the top in the entire interstellar region, strict in both admissions and graduation, admitting no more than 1,000 students each year, with specified quotas and ratios for each program. All the professors here were top experts from various fields, and each student had a very clear ability development plan. Once, a male with the same Spiritual Power Level C as Qiao Suisui was selected for his unique Talent and had become a capable Commander within five years, elevating his Spiritual Power Level from C to A.
Qiao Suisui was very interested in this academy, but she was stuck at the first step of how to get admitted.
Like the Empire Military Academy, the Interstellar Strategy Academy had not had a single female student in hundreds of years, but Qiao Suisui had checked, and there was no explicit rule that stated only males were accepted. Moreover, their selection method was very unique, changing every year, making it difficult to prepare specifically. For example, last year's examination had students swap roles on the spot and ask each other a question, with no limits on the topic or category, open-ended. As a result, everyone felt just as uncertain after the exam as they had before.
At that moment, she was eating porridge while worrying about how to bring up her desire to attend the Interstellar Strategy Academy. Ruka quickly noticed that her favorite shelled corn porridge had barely been touched after a long time.
"Suisui, do you have any thoughts? After all, it's where you will be spending your future." Ruka asked.
"I... I want to go to the Federation's...."
Before she finished speaking, Zong Fang interrupted, saying, "Go to Soter, there they have a specialty Female Arts Academy."
He had already fully considered everything for Qiao Suisui. The arts academy was females-only, had fewer people, less turnover, and was easier to manage. Moreover, since it was all females, security concerns were negligible. Plus, they only had to attend class three or four times a week, the rest of the time was free, and most significantly, there was no need for boarding, so he could keep Suisui by his side to take care of her.
Qiao Suisui clenched her spoon, her fingernails whitening with force. She looked up slowly and said, "I want to go to the Interstellar Strategy Academy."
All three men were taken aback.
Zong Fang frowned at her and said, "That's no place for you, and they don't admit females."
"Why don't they admit females?"
Leberli, disliking Zong Fang's dismissive tone, shot Zong Fang a cold glance. He walked over and crouched beside Qiao Suisui, squeezed her palm, and smiled, "It's my fault I didn't make it clear to you. Females are considered too delicate for this, although they have the privilege of being admitted without exams. But the presence of females can incite male unrest, so schools strictly control female admissions. Moreover, there have been instances where females joined as transfer students out of curiosity, only to leave after not even lasting a day. Over time, no female chooses a school full of males, as it invites trouble."
When Qiao Suisui heard about being admitted without exams, her eyes brightened. She had a bold idea.
