The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers

Chapter 1389: Chapter 1389: Spicy Eye

Yue Qiguang threw those words down, then couldn’t wait to reach out, wanting to grab a box of Tiramisu, but before his hand even got there, Ji You smacked it away with her chopsticks.

Yue Qiguang’s brows instantly furrowed: ”Huh?”

Ji You kept a straight face and said, ”No need to badmouth me behind my back. Just curse me to my face right now and call me a cheapskate.”

Yue Qiguang: ”???”

Ji You said, ”Go on, curse me.”

”Damn!” Yue Qiguang’s face darkened as he cursed, ”You idiot, you not gonna let your daddy eat?” Seeing Ji You’s blank face, Yue Qiguang couldn’t help but curse again, ”Cheapskate! If you’re not gonna let your daddy eat, why’d you buy three boxes?”

When Ji You heard that, she laughed and said, ”That’s right, I am a cheapskate.”

Then.

Ji You reached out, pulled the box of Tiramisu in front of Yue Qiguang over to herself and watched over it like a hawk, then said, ”I’m stingy, so of course this isn’t for you. This was bought for me by Lou.”

Yue Qiguang: ”!!!”

”Huh?” Yue Qiguang thought he’d misheard. He dug at his ear, looked at Louise Carter in disbelief, and asked, ”Louise Carter, you got so much money you don’t know where to spend it? You buy it for her but not for your daddy?”

Lou shot Yue Qiguang a complicated look, then said, ”Let’s not bring that up. How about we just sit and wait for the others to come out.”

The box outside can unfold into a simple table and chairs, and once you’re done using it, you can toss it into a recycling bin. Immediately, these Materials will be sent to the recycling station to be broken down, then turned back into usable Material.

Lou sat by the table, watching Ji You shovel big mouthfuls of Tiramisu into her mouth. All of a sudden, he regretted not buying another portion for himself.

If he’d bought one more, he wouldn’t have to just sit there and watch Ji You eat.

Ji You ate bite after bite, looking totally satisfied; at the same time, while eating, she had to fend off Yue Qiguang and Lou’s hands as they kept trying to steal bites.

Right at that moment—

Ji You heard a series of clack-clack-clack footsteps. Her mouth paused, and in that instant, she suddenly lunged forward, sprawled over the tabletop, and covered all the unfinished Tiramisu.

Then.

The footsteps stopped. The other person seemed surprised at how sharp Ji You was. After a brief speechless moment, they started swearing: ”Number 4444, you poor dead thing, that’s enough, okay? If I hadn’t seen you guys sitting here, I wouldn’t even have come over, okay?”

Ji You didn’t say a word.

Sheng Qingyan rolled his eyes and rudely kept cursing: ”You think I’m missing that one piece of cake, okay? If I wanted to eat, I wouldn’t buy it myself, okay?”

Hearing that, Ji You snorted and said, ”Then go buy it, okay? Go. Go buy it right now, okay?”

Sheng Qingyan gave Ji You a sideways glance, plopped down carelessly in the empty seat next to them, then yawned and complained, ”I’m exhausted, okay? What kind of crappy match was that, okay? I totally didn’t want to fight that long, okay? I wanted to walk right out from the start, okay?”

Yue Qiguang fell silent.

Sheng Qingyan kept chattering on: ”Lou, okay, when did you come out, okay? Did you beat the poor dead thing up, okay? Let me guess, okay?”

As he spoke, ignoring the slightly heavy expression on Lou’s face, he deliberately tilted his head, pretending to think. A few seconds later, Sheng Qingyan covered his mouth and snickered, ”I’ve figured it out, okay. Lou, you must’ve gotten beaten up by the poor dead thing, okay.”

Lou: ”...”

Lou’s face went completely dark.

Then.

Lou turned to look at Yue Qiguang and suggested, ”These two are so annoying. How about the two of us go sit somewhere else?”

Yue Qiguang stood up and said, ”Let’s go.”

Sheng Qingyan hurriedly reached out his hand: ”Ah Guang, okay, don’t go, okay. I know you must be super frustrated right now, okay, but don’t go, okay. Just sit in front of me and stew in your frustration, okay. Can’t you let me laugh a little longer, okay?”

Yue Qiguang: ”...”

Yue Qiguang cursed, ”Sheng Qingyan, you looking to die or what? Want your daddy to reteach you how to be a human right now?”

Sheng Qingyan covered his mouth and chuckled, then shook his head and said, ”I don’t want that, okay. If you dare hit me, okay, I’ll go report you, okay, and say you abuse your classmates, okay.”

Yue Qiguang: ”...”

This place is unlivable!

Yue Qiguang called to Lou, ”Let’s go, come change spots with your daddy.”

Lou shot to his feet.

The next second, the two of them strode off, their footsteps thudding as they ran far away. Before leaving, Yue Qiguang tried to snag a piece of Tiramisu, but Ji You whacked his hand hard with her chopsticks. Completely helpless, he could only leave in regret.

Then.

Ji You was about to continue eating her Tiramisu when she bumped into Sheng Qingyan’s pair of misty eyes. Her fingers twitched. ”What are you doing?”

Sheng Qingyan covered the corner of his mouth and said, ”4444, okay, give me a piece, okay. If you don’t, I’ll cry for you to see, okay.”

Ji You: ”...”

Sheng Qingyan said, ”I really will cry for you to see, okay.”

Ji You gnashed her teeth. ”You wouldn’t dare!”

Sheng Qingyan immediately tugged up his sleeve, about to open his throat and howl.

”Shut up!” Ji You threw a piece of cake at him and cursed, ”Eat, eat, eat! Besides eating, what else can you do?”

Sheng Qingyan grabbed the Tiramisu Ji You had thrown over, ducked his head and took a bite, then looked up and flashed Ji You a mischievous grin. ”Besides eating, I can also cry, okay.”

”...” Ji You’s hand shook, and she almost flipped the table.

”Spicy Eye!” Ji You’s eyes darkened, and her tone carried a hint of threat. ”That’s enough, okay. If you dare keep yapping and clowning around in front of me, I’ll let you find out what it feels like to get your head split open!”

For a single bite of food, Sheng Qingyan’s thick skin was in no way inferior to Ji You’s. Hearing this, he didn’t care at all, and wasn’t scared either. Instead, he smiled at Ji You and said, ”Poor dead thing, okay, you dressing up like this, are you afraid people will recognize you, okay?”

He paused slightly, then kept giggling: ”Tell me, okay, if I suddenly scream out, okay, and tell everyone you’re here, okay, what do you think will happen, okay?”

Ji You’s hand holding the chopsticks gave a little twitch. She rolled her eyes and said, ”Nothing will happen, okay. Believe it or not, before anyone finds me, I’ll have already beaten you to death first?”

”...” Sheng Qingyan’s mouth twitched, then he quickly finished the cake in a few bites and said, ”So tasty, okay, give me another piece, okay?”

Ji You rolled her eyes again and tossed another piece over.

Sheng Qingyan caught it and chomped away happily.

Just then, a sudden commotion rose from the crowd, as if someone had appeared. Ji You and Sheng Qingyan both stopped what they were doing and looked toward the source of the noise.

Then they saw someone with a sword on her back, walking out of the crowd against the light. She was very tall, yet her figure was slender and graceful. A chill seemed to radiate from her whole body. She kept her eyes straight ahead, completely unconcerned with the crowd’s chasing gazes and noisy chatter, as if her target was very clear. Step by step, she moved through the crowd, striding steadily toward her goal.

And Ji You realized that this person’s target seemed to be her. As the girl’s footsteps drew nearer, the crowd followed in closer as well.

All at once, Ji You felt that the Tiramisu she was holding in her hands didn’t taste good at all anymore.
