The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers-Chapter 888 Heartless Scoundrel!

Because she needed to rush to create the Soul Devices for Yue Qiguang and others before they embarked on their mission, Ji You was working overtime on their creation. By the time she stored the five Soul Devices in the backend of Light Speed Express, she was so exhausted that she didn’t even have the strength to move a finger. Ji You sent a message to Chu Jiaojiao and others, then immediately fell asleep.

When she woke up, it was already the next morning. Her contact number was ringing like crazy, and Ji You thought it was Chu Jiaojiao and the others urging her to hurry up. However, when she answered, what appeared before her eyes was a fluffy little head with two naïve, innocent, pitiful, teary eyes.

Ji You’s eyes lit up: "Mengmeng!"

Mengmeng let out a bleating sound towards Ji You: "Baa—"

[Heartless human!]

Ji You’s face turned a little red, and she quickly soothed, "Mengmeng, I’m sorry, I should’ve come to see my Little Mengmeng as soon as I got back. Oh, I’ve missed you so much..."

Mengmeng stretched its neck and howled: "Baa—"

[Bad! I don’t believe you! You never thought of Mengmeng...]

Mengmeng’s howling was filled with endless grievance. Ji You chuckled, saying, "Really, believe me, I truly missed you. I think of you every day, wondering if Mengmeng was eating on time, sleeping on time, studying on time..."

Upon hearing that, Mengmeng tilted its head, carefully observing the expression on Ji You’s face. Ji You raised her head and gazed at Mengmeng, her eyes full of sincerity...

For a moment, Mengmeng was puzzled: "Baa?"

[Really?]

Ji You: "Of course!"

Mengmeng: "Baa~"

[Liar! Don’t deceive the pure and lovely Mengmeng!]

Ji You patted her chest vigorously and said loudly, "I swear to the heavens that Ji You has not told Mengmeng a single lie! If I have, let lightning strike me down!"

Upon hearing this, Mengmeng got anxious and dug into the dirt with its front hooves, yelling: "Baa!"

[Don’t allow it!]

[I won’t let you curse yourself like that!]

Seeing Mengmeng’s worried appearance, Ji You grinned and quickly said, "Okay! I’ll listen to Mengmeng, if Mengmeng doesn’t allow it, I won’t say it again!" Indeed, this classic scoundrel talk was enough to appease the pure Little Mengmeng.

Ahem...

Hearing this, Mengmeng finally put down its digging hooves, and its cry softened: "Baa~"

[Alright, I’ll believe you one more time.]

Ji You put on a stern face and said somewhat domineeringly, "No! Mengmeng must always believe in me! Because I like Mengmeng the most!"

Mengmeng suddenly widened its eyes, stared at Ji You intently for a few seconds, seemingly discerning the truth of her words. Then... Mengmeng lowered its head, its two front hooves gently digging at the ground, the voice unusually soft and tender, "Baa~ Baa~ Baa~"

[Mengmeng likes Ji You the most too!]

"Ji You likes Mengmeng the most too!" Ji You wished she could run right over and hug Mengmeng and pet it...

Suddenly—

"Can you really understand what it’s saying?"

Out of nowhere, a ghostly voice from the side interrupted the intimate exchange between Ji You and Mengmeng.

Ji You: "..."

Following the voice, Ji You looked over and met Liu Fufeng’s curious gaze. Ji You maintained a straight face and said very seriously, "Of course!"—Just kidding.

Liu Fufeng’s mouth gaped in surprise: "Really? But—"

Liu Fufeng was utterly baffled. Before Ji You could answer, he couldn’t help but continue, "But I’ve had Mengmeng for so long, and I haven’t understood anything it says."

"Ahem..." Ji You put on a straight face and seriously spouted nonsense: "Who am I? I am Ji You, Mengmeng’s favorite, how could I not understand what it’s saying? Even if I can’t understand, I’d guess it right."

Liu Fufeng: "Oh—"

Got it.

Turns out it was a guess.

So—

That is to say, it’s not really understood.

Seeing Liu Fufeng’s expression that seemed to have realized something, Ji You maintained her straight face, acting as if she hadn’t seen anything and seriously asked, "Student Liu Fufeng, is Mengmeng inside the hot pot restaurant?"

Liu Fufeng: "Yes."

Mengmeng stood by, unwilling to be lonely, and poked its head to the center of the screen: "Baa~"

Ji You quickly said, "Alright, alright... I’ll come over to accompany you right away! Right away! Right away!"

Saying this, Ji You immediately turned the camera to focus on a self-driving Floating Car, then swiped, deducting 5 credit points, and only then did she turn the camera back, smiling at Mengmeng, "Mengmeng, did you see? 5 credit points for the car fare have already been deducted. For Mengmeng, what’s 5 credit points? Even if it’s 500, 50,000, I’d spend it willingly."

Mengmeng tilted its head, took a careful look, confirmed the Floating Car had started, and immediately began spinning in circles happily: "Baa~"

Liu Fufeng: "..."

Liu Fufeng seriously asked, "Are 5 credit points a lot?"

Ji You: "..."

Ji You: "Ahem... don’t talk nonsense about Mengmeng, or I’ll have to give you a good beating."

Liu Fufeng softly said, "But it really doesn’t understand."

Ji You raised her hand, scratched her head, and said chuckling, "You don’t have to worry about this. Anyway, you’re not allowed to say anything bad about me in front of Mengmeng, nor tell Mengmeng anything about my deeds."

Ahem...

Oh, pure Mengmeng, just 5 credit points, and it can be deceived so easily. If someone more eloquent and appealing to Mengmeng comes along, won’t they just take Mengmeng away from me?

For a moment, Ji You felt a bit troubled.

The Floating Car sped towards the hot pot restaurant, and 3 minutes later, it stopped beside the hot pot restaurant on the commercial street. Ji You hadn’t gotten out of the car yet, when she saw on the steps at the entrance of the hot pot restaurant, there truly was a person and an alpaca, their heads raised to a 45-degree angle looking at the sky. Upon hearing the Floating Car’s sound, both the person and the alpaca turned their heads altogether, looking at Ji You who had just stepped one foot out of the car.

Mengmeng: "Baa!"

Immediately after, the excited Mengmeng shouted and zoomed to Ji You in the blink of an eye. Ji You hurriedly jumped off the car and immediately hugged Mengmeng: "Mengmeng!"

Mengmeng: "Baa!"

Ji You: "Mengmeng!"

...

A person and an alpaca, just like this, calling out to each other for a few minutes. This scene, seen by other students on the commercial street, instantly aroused public outrage:

"Who is that, daring to pet an alpaca in public, it’s too much!"

"Can someone drag this person out, and conveniently slaughter them?"

"The Mengmeng who ignored me, how could you end up with such a person?"

"Mengmeng, you heartless creature!"

...

Mengmeng couldn’t care less about what those humans outside were shouting about. It affectionately rubbed against Ji You, its eyes misty: "Baa~"

[Why did you come to see Mengmeng only now?]

Ji You quickly comforted, "Mengmeng, I’m sorry, I’ll definitely come to see you first thing next time."

Mengmeng nuzzled against Ji You with its head, opening its mouth: "Baa baa~"

[Alright!]
