The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers

Chapter 1465: Chapter 1465: Seize Every Minute

"Poor dead, why are you suddenly blushing?" Sheng Qingyan sat next to Ji You and noticed that his face suddenly turned red in waves, making his expression look particularly strange.

Ji You was startled, then put on a serious face and said, "What does it matter to you?"

"...None of my business," Sheng Qingyan almost cursed, but remembered she needed something from him, so she forcefully changed her tone. Then, she stamped her foot and walked towards where Shen Changqing was.

[Humph!]

[Poor dead, once I become happily married with Green Glaze Master, I’ll definitely blow some pillow talk his way and immediately terminate the poor dead’s salesperson qualification.]

Sheng Qingyan walked while plotting silently.

As soon as Sheng Qingyan left, Ji You felt the surroundings immediately quiet down. Garbage planet 381 had already entered nighttime, which was more dangerous than daytime, and various fierce beasts could unexpectedly appear. Although the spaceship was under repair, Liu Ming, A Ke, Granny Chen, Uncle Liang, and others had been assigned to enter the spaceship.

Ji You and Chu Jiaojiao set a security line near the spaceship, organized teams, each group defending with five people.

As for Principal Hong and Dr. Luo?

Dr. Luo hadn’t returned yet, Principal Hong had already entered the spaceship’s lounge, completely becoming a hands-off boss.

Everything was decided by ten students through discussion.

Ji You half-closed her eyes, seemingly pretending to sleep, yet in reality, she was on high alert, her spiritual network covering every movement within 1000 meters.

Time quietly passed.

Night fell deeper.

The temperature on garbage planet 381 dropped sharply, reaching around minus 10 degrees. Ji You wore protective clothing with an internal constant temperature setting, which she felt was quite high-tech. The clothing was not only temperature-regulated but also lightweight and thin, not cumbersome, and did not affect exercise and combat. If this had been invented during the Ancient Earth period, the inventor would have gotten rich.

Ahem...

With thoughts wandering, Ji You felt her eyelids drooping when suddenly someone gently patted her shoulder, waking Ji You abruptly.

Ji You opened her eyes wide and met Liu Fufeng’s beautiful obsidian-like eyes.

Liu Fufeng said, "Student Ji You, don’t sleep, I’m a bit scared."

Ji You: "..."

Liu Fufeng looked at Ji You seriously: "I... I really am a bit scared."

Ji You looked up at the sky, finding it pitch black with few stars, indicating that the weather on this planet wouldn’t be good in the coming days.

Considering Liu Fufeng came together for watch duty, but most of the time he was just hanging around, and he was physically weak, estimated not to last long, so Ji You said, "If you’re afraid, just sleep, when you’re asleep, you won’t be scared."

Liu Fufeng’s eyes brightened upon hearing this, but then he showed some distress: "There’s no place to sleep, Student Ji You, can I rest on your shoulder?"

Ji You: "..."

Ji You kept a straight face: "How about you go back to the spaceship to sleep, the principal is there, and he can protect you at the first moment if there’s danger."

Liu Fufeng shook his head honestly, "I feel safer being with Student Ji You."

Ji You’s mouth twitched, this guy really clung to her.

Liu Fufeng bowed his head slightly, saying, "Can... can I?"

Ji You flatly refused, "No."

Liu Fufeng’s face fell upon hearing this.

Ji You wasn’t buying it, saying, "Student Liu Fufeng, you are strong, your abilities are even stronger than mine, you don’t have to rely on me or others. To you, no one in this world is reliable, the only reliable one is always yourself."

Ahem...

After saying this, Ji You realized it sounded familiar, as if she had said something similar to A Ke not long ago. However, good words aren’t afraid of being repeated, as long as they encourage people.

Liu Fufeng pursed his lips.

Silent.

After a while, Liu Fufeng shook his head, saying: "I’m not reliable."

"I myself am the least reliable person."

He said.

The voice was very low.

Thinking of his spiritual power that could explode at any time, Ji You sighed softly and said, "If you don’t try, how do you know you’re not capable?"

Liu Fufeng whispered: "I’ve tried before."

Ji You: "..."

"I... I really envy you all who can freely sweat and shed blood. Whether it’s your past, present, future... I... I envy it all." Liu Fufeng revealed his true feelings for the first time, and after speaking, he hung his head, enveloped in an incredibly gloomy aura: "Especially today, when everyone was working hard, I could only stand by like an outsider and watch."

His aura became even more gloomy.

Completely—

Depressed beyond belief.

Seeing him like this, Ji You originally intended to scold him harshly. Whether it was Chu Jiaojiao, Shen Changqing, Yue Qiguang, even Sheng Qingyan with her shameless antics, none were as depressed as Liu Fufeng. Everyone had painful experiences and undying sorrows, but nobody was as dark a hole as Liu Fufeng.

Ji You kept a straight face, saying, "Student Liu Fufeng, I solemnly tell you this— I do not envy anyone; my life can only be decided by myself, whether I succeed or fail, through joys and sorrows... it all goes on, I only strive for every moment."

After saying this.

Ji You turned and walked away.

The next second.

Ji You drew her knife, slaying a Carrion Rat lurking under the dead leaves waiting to strike.

Then.

Ji You sheathed her knife, returned to the stone, and sat down.

A calm breeze.

Ji You didn’t speak again, yet her presence emitted a strong aura that made people tremble, like a warm sun in winter.

Liu Fufeng was stunned.

The surroundings were quiet, except for the sound of the wind, no other sound was heard, Liu Fufeng raised his head, with his beautiful eyes, constantly watching Ji You.

Ji You sat upright, eyes closed, meditating.

Then.

Ji You drew her knife, slaying the second Carrion Rat, the third, the fourth...

Throughout, Ji You didn’t speak again.

Liu Fufeng sat next to Ji You, never disturbed by Carrion Rats, those rats leaping out looked like unaware little bugs under Ji You’s knife.

Liu Fufeng was silent.

After a while.

Liu Fufeng murmured to himself: "Strive for every moment, cherish youth." He understood, this was the first time he truly recognized Ji You; knowing is easy, doing is hard, many are like this, but Ji You always practiced this.

Ji You heard his words but didn’t respond.

Time slowly passed, the temperature gradually rose, indicating dawn was approaching, and this night, except for a few Carrion Rats leaping out, they didn’t encounter a single black bear.

This left Ji You and others a bit puzzled.

Where did the black bears that roamed the entire planet go?
