The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers

Chapter 1541: Chapter 1541: Good News

Looking at Ji You’s bright eyes, filled with genuine happiness, Xie Lingzhi couldn’t help but smile even more. She lifted her gaze to the sky, saying, "This semester, our mentor plans to take us to explore the Kunpeng Wormhole in the Second Star System. There are only ten spots, and I’m one of them."

Ji You widened her eyes: "!!!"

"Hmph~" Under Ji You’s shocked open-mouthed expression, Xie Lingzhi softly snorted and added calmly, "Out of 100 students chosen from the Space Department across the entire Alliance, I’m one of them."

Ji You: "!!!"

Clutching her chest with excitement, Ji You exclaimed: "Damn!!! That’s amazing!!! Sister Lingzhi, you’re just... so incredible!!!"

The Kunpeng Wormhole in the Second Star System is one of the largest wormholes discovered by humanity in their exploration of the universe. Exploration of the Kunpeng Wormhole has been ongoing for a century, and it’s said that something new has recently been discovered. Furthermore, the Alliance’s control over the wormhole has become more stable, so it was partially opened to the public.

Thus, the Alliance University seized the opportunity, arranging for several professors specializing in Space Science from the Top Ten Universities to lead a research expedition, with each school selecting ten students to participate.

Although Lanyue Star Military Academy is ranked at the bottom of the Top Ten Universities, it still qualified.

Each school has ten spots...

For this reason, the entire Space Department nearly broke into a fight. Then, the mentors from the Lanyue Star Military Academy’s Space Department issued a space research exam that students had to complete independently within a certain timeframe. Only those who ranked in the top ten in exam scores would qualify.

Xie Lingzhi’s performance was good, ranking ninth, and she obtained the spot smoothly.

She hadn’t appeared lately because she was working on this research.

"So awesome!"

"Sister Lingzhi, I’m proud of you!"

"Oh my! My Sister Lingzhi is just too strong, isn’t she?!!!" Ji You chirped around Xie Lingzhi, then suddenly paused and asked, "Sister Lingzhi, do you want some roast chicken? I can buy one for you?"

Xie Lingzhi: "..."

Xie Lingzhi rolled her eyes, saying, "I don’t eat that. Do you think everyone has such little ambition like you?"

Ji You raised her hand, scratching her head, then said boldly, "Then what do you want to eat? I’ll buy it for you! We’ve got plenty of credit points." They’ve signed a deal for ten trillion, why worry about a little money?

Ji You was brimming with confidence.

Xie Lingzhi couldn’t understand where Ji You’s confidence came from, but she didn’t want to waste money and only said, "Just treat me to a meal with braised spare ribs."

Ji You: "..."

Ji You couldn’t help but complain: "Sister Lingzhi, my ambition at least includes eating a roast chicken and two apples, yet you’re satisfied with just one meal of braised spare ribs?"

Xie Lingzhi grunted, "How about you treat me to 100 meals instead?"

Ji You: "..."

Xie Lingzhi rolled her eyes: "Hmph, you’re just an Old Miser unwilling to spend."

Obtaining such a qualification is not something an ordinary student can achieve, indicating that she has become very excellent. This made Xie Lingzhi extremely happy and elated. She gently raised her head, her eyes revealing a beautiful anticipation for the future, saying, "When my brother and Lea return, they will surely be amazed by our progress."

"Of course!" Ji You patted her chest and then chuckled, saying, "Our progress is enough to amaze them already. I haven’t seen Brother Qiong and Sister Liya in a long time."

Xie Lingzhi suddenly remembered something, saying, "Ji You, my brother and Lea are getting married when they return this time."

"Huh?"

"!!!"

"Huh?!" Ji You almost thought she misheard, and, in disbelief, she cleaned her ears, saying, "What did you say? They’re getting married? Brother Qiong and Sister Liya? Are you sure?"

Xie Lingzhi gave her a sidelong glance: "You heard correctly. It’s those two getting married."

Ji You clutched her chest, saying, "What? When did they start dating? Why didn’t I know? How can they get married without even dating? This is outrageous!"

Xie Lingzhi said, "They’ve been flirting for a long time; you just didn’t notice because you’re blind."

Ji You: "..."

Ji You shook her head, then suddenly said, "No, I can’t accept this. My gentle, pretty, beautiful Sister Liya, how can she get married? Even if it’s to Brother Qiong, he must get my approval first!"

"What’s the use of your disapproval? Grandma Jenny has already agreed." Xie Lingzhi raised her hand and knocked on her head: "Stop messing around, and don’t mess with my sister-in-law."

Ji You giggled. Hearing this good news confused her a bit, but mostly she felt joy. She said, "I’m kind of happy, for Brother Qiong and Sister Lea." Then she sneakily glanced at Xie Lingzhi and added, "And of course, happy for Sister Lingzhi too."

Xie Lingzhi: "Hmph!"

Ji You looked eager and said, "I’m really curious to know what romantic things happened between Brother Qiong and Sister Lea that made them decide to get married. Why aren’t they answering my calls? I just feel like calling them right now to find out."

Xie Lingzhi explained, "When this group of students in their department was on a mission outside, something unexpected happened, and they were rescued by Mecha Warriors at the border. There’s been some other situation, so this group of students can’t freely act or communicate with the outside world right now. My brother’s teacher has already gone to bring them back personally, so I only received their safety report and the marriage news."

Ji You understood.

On their return from the Alliance First Military Academy, Ji You and others also encountered quite a few unexpected events, and the situation became quite dangerous at one point. If it weren’t for good luck, they might not have made it.

Especially those mayflies suddenly appearing during their voyage; their vast numbers and the way they filled the sky still gave Ji You a heart-pounding feeling in retrospect.

What exactly happened to make the interschool league suddenly suspended?

According to Principal Hong, it was because the space rift had opened early.

But!

Is that all?

Ji You was a bit uncertain. She put away her worries and asked, "Sister Lingzhi, do you know when Brother Qiong and Sister Liya’s wedding date is?"

The legal marriage age in the Alliance is 18. As long as they are adults, they can decide for themselves whether to marry, even if they are still students, they can voluntarily choose a time to marry.

Therefore, as long as Xie Chuanqiong and Lea are willing, they can marry whenever they want.

Xie Lingzhi shook her head, saying, "They said that after returning to school, they would take a trip back to Garbage Star No. 101 and hold the wedding with my father and Grandma Jenny as witnesses."

When Ji You heard this, she laughed and said, "Then I should be able to make it back in time."
