The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers-Chapter 915: Drawing Circles

Ji You threw out this question, and everyone, including Chu Jiaojiao, shook their heads: "No idea."

Ji You said: "Should we wait for him?"

Chu Jiaojiao: "No idea."

After saying this, Chu Jiaojiao immediately looked at the others, and everyone shrugged, indicating it didn’t matter. Shen Changqing thought for a moment and said, "Let’s wait. Since we agreed to take him on the mission, given how poor his physical condition is, we must ensure he coordinates well with us. Otherwise, it could be dangerous. When we discuss departure arrangements later, let’s include him."

Neither Yue Qiyuan nor Yue Qiguang had any objections. Sheng Qingyan was idly stroking the Dream Catcher in his hand, and upon hearing this, he shrugged indifferently.

Then.

Ji You, Chu Jiaojiao, Shen Changqing... six people squatted by the flowerbed, waiting for Liu Fufeng to finish running.

minute.

minutes.

minutes.

...

A full hour and a half passed before Liu Fufeng completed a lap. As he dragged his heavy footsteps to the flowerbed, Sheng Qingyan had already fallen asleep by the bench, drooling...

Ji You, Chu Jiaojiao, and Yue Qiguang were gathered, playing a card game. Ji You gritted her teeth and cursed harshly: "I can’t believe I lost again! Jiaojiao, you must have cheated! You definitely cheated!"

Chu Jiaojiao chuckled: "I really didn’t cheat. Just lucky, I guess."

Yue Qiguang rolled his eyes and scolded, "Can’t take it? Just hand over the Candy Beans." The three of them wagered Candy Beans on their card games, so each time someone lost, they’d have to hand over beans to the winner, inevitably leading to a squabble after each game.

With trembling hands, Ji You took out the Candy Beans, and Chu Jiaojiao and Yue Qiguang instantly reached out to snatch them away.

Ji You pouted, "Why are you so quick to grab them? I’m not going to back out."

Chu Jiaojiao, Yue Qiguang: "You would!"

Ji You: "..."

Ji You cursed: "As if you two wouldn’t."

The three of them were bickering, while Yue Qiyuan and Shen Changqing were squatting nearby, each holding a book. Shen Changqing was reading about Mechanical Manufacturing, and Yue Qiyuan was reading about Physical Strength training methods. They both looked up at the three, Yue Qiyuan with a hint of envy in his eyes, said: "So Candy Beans are that easy to earn. I should have joined." 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

Beside him, Shen Changqing said seriously: "Gambling is wrong."

"Ahem..." Yue Qiyuan said: "I was just saying."

Liu Fufeng watched this scene, his pale face showing no color. He opened his mouth to speak, but suddenly, he wobbled and was about to fall into the flowerbed pool—

Ji You was standing in that direction. Seeing this, she picked up her Big Chopper and blocked Liu Fufeng’s fall with the flat of the blade.

Liu Fufeng: "..."

Liu Fufeng looked down at the Big Chopper across his waist, and his pale face flushed red!

In frustration.

Ji You swiftly sheathed the knife, then scratched her head and grinned at Liu Fufeng: "Bro, don’t mind, I wasn’t trying to chop you, just trying to save you."

Liu Fufeng gritted his teeth: "Thanks."

When Liu Fufeng said these words, his teeth were trembling, clearly frightened by the moment just now. Ji You chuckled, saying: "You’re welcome."

Liu Fufeng: "..."

Liu Fufeng said softly: "I thought you would use your hand to pull me—"

Ji You laughed: "My hands are short, couldn’t reach, the knife was faster. Haha..."

Liu Fufeng: "..."

Liu Fufeng squatted, gasping for breath, and started drawing circles on the ground...

Ji You: "..."

What a petty kid, drawing circles on the ground to curse me just because I didn’t reach out to pull him?

Beside them, Chu Jiaojiao and the others looked on curiously. Yue Qiguang bluntly asked: "Student Fufeng, what are you drawing?"

Liu Fufeng’s fingers paused.

After a second, Liu Fufeng honestly replied: "Drawing circles to curse Ji You to have one less piece of braised pork."

Ji You: "..."

Yue Qiguang: "..."

Everyone else: "..."

Awkward.

Endless awkwardness.

After a moment.

Ji You rolled her eyes and said: "You cafeteria temp worker, why are you so malicious? Lucky you’re not working there now or you’d be careful of being sacked and beaten up."

Liu Fufeng looked up, his beautiful eyes seriously gazing at Ji You, saying: "After school starts, I’ll continue working in the cafeteria."

Ji You: "..."

Beside them, Chu Jiaojiao immediately handed over a bottle of water, grinning and asking: "Student Fufeng, thirsty after running? Here—take a sip. And help your Sister Jiao Jiao with the meals later, okay?"

Liu Fufeng shook his head: "Can’t accept favors without a price, I won’t drink."

Chu Jiaojiao: "..."

This guy is tough to deal with.

Yue Qiguang, Yue Qiyuan... all gave up trying to win him over.

"Ahem..." Shen Changqing cleared his throat and said: "Today, we’re gathered to discuss the departure time. How does leaving three days from now at six in the morning sound to everyone?" This was everyone’s first mission, and the group task was on Bee Head Star, quite far from Lanyue Star. To minimize risks during the journey and mission, everyone wanted to be well-prepared, so the departure time hadn’t been formally set.

Ji You listened and said: "I have no objections." Her spiritual power and physical strength hadn’t reached a critical breakthrough point, so she didn’t need special time to breakthrough, and could leave anytime.

Chu Jiaojiao also nodded: "No problem here either."

Sheng Qingyan suddenly yawned from sleep. After yawning, he said: "No problem for me either." Then he continued to close his eyes and started snoring... It wasn’t clear if he was really asleep or just pretending.

Yue Qiguang frowned and thought for a moment, saying: "Dad’s at the critical point of a Spiritual Level breakthrough, trying to break through will take about 2 days, successful or not, we can leave then."

Through the connection with Ji You from No. 4444, he acquired a Soul Device made by the Green Glaze Master. As soon as he got it, Yue Qiguang felt the long-static barrier of his spiritual power loosen a bit.

Yue Qiguang wanted to seize these two days to push for a breakthrough, adding a layer of security for himself and the others while executing the mission.

After Yue Qiguang spoke, Yue Qiyuan said: "Yue Qiguang is too dumb, I need to watch over him for the breakthrough. Departure in 3 days suits well."

Liu Fufeng looked up seriously at everyone and said: "I’ll follow your lead."

Since everyone had no objections, Ji You immediately decided: "Then it’s settled, we’ll set off three days later."
