The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers

Chapter 670: Chapter 670: Truly Honest Person

Sheng Qingyan’s eyes suddenly widened upon hearing this sentence, his entire body as if struck by lightning, tottering on the brink of collapse. Clutching his chest, he cried out in alarm, ”No... oh no...”

While wailing, he once again tried to hug Ji You’s thigh.

Ji You glanced at him sideways: ”If you dare to hug my leg again, I’ll send you flying right now!”

Sheng Qingyan’s action froze mid-air.

Ji You raised his hand, pointing to the side: ”Right now, immediately, move 5 meters away from me.”

Sheng Qingyan shot up and darted away 5 meters in a trice.

Ji You stroked his chin, slightly dissatisfied, ”5 meters is too close. Make it 10 meters!”

Sheng Qingyan immediately jumped another 5 meters.

Ji You was then slightly more satisfied, ”That’s better.”

Sheng Qingyan pouted, eyes reddened, looking at Ji You with an aggrieved expression, whispering, ”You poor dead, I’m being so obedient, can’t you just not send it to the Master, pretty please?”

Ji You hummed: ”Depends on my mood.”

Sheng Qingyan: ”...”

Sheng Qingyan used too much onion juice, his eyes burning. He lifted his head, staring at the ceiling, trying hard not to let the tears spill and feeling even more wronged, ”Oh heavens... I’ve tried so hard, why didn’t the Master choose me to be a salesperson?”

To the side.

Yue Qiguang mocked, ”You’re too dumb.”

Yue Qiyuan: ”Too spicy for the eyes.”

Chu Jiaojiao clenched her fists, rolling her eyes, ”Too deserving of a beating.”

Shen Changqing pursed his lips, wanting to say something but then held back, merely staring at Sheng Qingyan, sighing faintly before saying, ”Ayan, failing once isn’t scary, just keep trying and move forward.”

Wow~

The usually honest Shen Changqing is even serving up some motivational soup.

Unfortunately~

Ji You mercilessly interrupted, saying, ”I contacted the Master, and the Master said that he won’t be hiring salespeople anymore, meaning—oh, too bad, you’re out of chances!”

Sheng Qingyan: ”...”

Upon hearing this, Sheng Qingyan nearly choked, immediately pulling at his throat to wail, ”I’m gonna die...”

”I can’t live on...”

”I...”

Ji You, Chu Jiaojiao, Shen Changqing, Yue Qiyuan, and Yue Qiguang all simultaneously covered their ears, then calmly sat down to eat.

After Sheng Qingyan cried out for a while, realizing no one was paying attention to him, he thought for a moment, weighed his options, and then trotted over to Ji You’s side, gauging Ji You’s mood, and said ingratiatingly, ”Ji You, do you want some Long-legged Chicken eggs?”

Ji You ignored him.

Sheng Qingyan then said, ”I’ll buy them for you, how about 10?”

Ji You didn’t even glance at him.

Sheng Qingyan bit his lip, ”How about I buy you 100?”

Only then did Ji You lift his eyelids to look at him, ”What do you take me for? Do you think I can eat 100 at once?”

Sheng Qingyan biting his lip, ”What I mean is, I’ll treat you to one every day from now on.”

That’s more like it.

Ji You snorted, ”Sit down.”

Sheng Qingyan immediately scuttled to sit opposite Ji You, very consciously attempting to stuff a rib into Ji You’s plate.

Seeing Sheng Qingyan’s actions, the others didn’t fall behind, chiming in one after another, ”Ji You, I have some here too / Don’t eat his, he has bad breath.”

Ji You: ”...”

Watching this scene, Ji You couldn’t help but laugh inwardly, a smile curving the corners of her lips. She cleared her throat and said, ”Alright, this mighty one isn’t eating anyone’s rib rice today.”

Hearing this, everyone inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, gorging as if reincarnated from starving ghosts, they quickly devoured the ribs in their bowls, as if afraid Ji You would regret her decision.

Ji You: ”...”

Ji You then said, ”But you guys, who was it that said they’d treat me to rib rice for a few months?”

A few people: ”Cough cough...”

Chu Jiaojiao, looking at Ji You’s face, smilingly said, ”Ji You, we’re good sisters, I’ll treat you for a month!”

Yue Qiguang stiffened his neck, slightly uncomfortable, ”Dad’s allowance is a little short this semester, I’ll also treat you for a month.”

Yue Qiyuan was the most frank, stating bluntly, ”Poor, I can only afford to treat for one month.”

Ji You’s expression was beyond description at this point.

She knew none of these guys ever said anything reliable. In just a few minutes, they went from three months to one month.

Therefore, Ji You did not make any statement, but simply turned towards Shen Changqing.

Shen Changqing’s face turned red, and in a low voice, he said, ”I... I’m not wealthy either—”

Ji You’s face tensed up: ”Hmm?”

Shen Changqing cleared his throat and said, ”Ahem... but I can still afford to treat you to braised pork ribs rice for three months.”

Only then did Ji You smile, saying, ”That’s settled then. If there are any specials from the Green Glaze Master, Shen Changqing will be the first to know.”

Chu Jiaojiao, Yue Qiguang, Yue Qiyuan: ”...”

Damn it!

Realist!

Social climber!

Hearing this, Shen Changqing’s eyes sparkled, and a slight smile appeared at the corners of his lips.

Sheng Qingyan, who had been listening, choked on the rice he had just swallowed. He glared at Ji You and said, ”You poor deadbeat, I wasn’t even done talking, I would treat you to six months’ worth of meals! Plus 100 long-legged chicken eggs.”

Ji You grinned and said, ”No matter how much you treat me, you can’t buy me over because while you were just throwing a tantrum, I’ve already decided to cancel all your privileges and discounts with me!”

Sheng Qingyan: ”...”

He really felt like crying.

Thoroughly enjoying the moment of being treated like a boss, Ji You chuckled slyly but didn’t push her luck. After all, these guys were just fair-weather schoolmates, so she couldn’t be too harsh.

So, sensing that enough was enough, Ji You hummed and said, ”Don’t worry, guys. I am all about justice. Since I’ve eaten your food, naturally, I’ll work hard to secure benefits for you. If the Master has any news or goodies, as long as I know, I will definitely tell you in advance and will try to get you some advantages.”

”Cough cough...”

”We trust Ji You to handle things.”

”Just listen to Ji You.”

”Cough cough...”

The group, seeing Ji You’s smug expression, couldn’t help but insincerely flatter her.

Next.

Everyone was curious about how Ji You actually got the job as a sales assistant, so they laid it on even thicker...

Yue Qiguang said, ”Dad has seen a lot of dummies, but he’s never seen someone as smart as Ji You.”

Ji You gave him a sideways glance and said, ”Oh... I’ve seen many smart people, but I’ve never seen anyone as dumb as you.”

Yue Qiguang: ”...”

Yue Qiguang clenched his fists in frustration but swallowed his rebuttal.

Zhou Qiyuan said, ”Ji You, from the beginning, I knew you were amazing, and indeed, I wasn’t wrong.”

Ji You hummed, ”Your brain is fine, but your vision is poor.”

Zhou Qiyuan: ”...”

Zhou Qiyuan took a deep breath and forced his retort down.

Seeing the Yue brothers collectively backing down, Chu Jiaojiao sat up straight, fixed her gaze on Ji You, and was about to speak—

Ji You hurriedly interrupted her, ”Don’t speak. You’re just a face-chasing ’Ayan’, no opening your mouth!”

Chu Jiaojiao: ”...”

Chu Jiaojiao swallowed her words back too.

Sheng Qingyan lifted his face, opened his mouth—

Ji You glanced at him and cut him off, saying, ”No words from you either, starving ghost. Spicy Eye.”

Sheng Qingyan bit his lip, feeling wronged.

Shen Changqing glanced at the others, took a quiet breath, and after considering for a moment, softly said, ”Ji You, I... I’m not good at fancy words, but I wish you excellent grades in your final exams! May you grow ever stronger and wealthier!”

Wow~

What a nice guy; his words are music to the ears.

Ji You was delighted, and at that moment, she also reined in her sharp tongue, promptly saying, ”Shen Changqing, don’t worry. As long as I’m working as a sales assistant for the Green Glaze Master, you’ll always benefit.”

Shen Changqing’s eyes sparkled.

The others: ”...”
