The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers

Chapter 1566: Chapter 1566: Scumbag He Bi

Submitting the assignment, Ji You waited anxiously. She knew this assignment would definitely get sent back for revision. Old Man Ye was someone who strived for perfection; if you could score 100, he wished you could achieve 110. In short, he would definitely push you to your limits...

Ji You had gotten used to this.

After waiting for a while without getting a reply from Professor Ye, she thought she might as well not go to bed yet and head to the training room for a session. Estimating that once she finished, she would get a reply.

Just as this thought crossed her mind, she heard the notification sound. Ji You quickly opened it and saw:

Ye Hong: [Okay.]

Just one character, a simple ’Okay’, without saying anything else, not even a score. Ji You found it strange.

Could Old Man Ye have changed?

Is it possible?

This old man is reportedly over three hundred years old, nearly four hundred. Would such an old man suddenly change his ways?

Ji You pondered for a moment and sent an inquiry emoji.

Professor Ye replied quickly, simply telling Ji You to go to sleep early.

Ji You immediately understood.

This old man is hard on the outside but soft inside. He doesn’t want to delay her rest and thus told her to go to bed early, right?

In that instant, Ji You suddenly felt a little moved.

This old man has dealt so many blows to Xiao You’s life, and even Xiao You once chose a desperate path due to expulsion, but—

How to put it?

Ji You clutched her chest, feeling it tremble there too.

In the enclosed space, the young girl looked up, gazing at the darkness overhead, and the lone light within it. Xiao You gently said: [Sister, I’ve long since forgiven him.]

[One should look forward.]

[Worrying about the past is purely a waste of time.]

[I am very grateful to him.]

[My life still has infinite possibilities.]

[Sister...] Xiao You said this, and her face suddenly turned red, her voice grew soft, [I want to fight alongside my sister for a more brilliant future.]

Ji You smiled and said, "Of course."

Xiao You nodded firmly: [Mmm!]

Ji You said, "Our journey is to the stars and the sea, to the vast universe, and the countless unknowns..."

Xiao You: [Mmm!]

...

Only then did Ji You lie down to sleep.

The next day, she got up early, full of energy, and went to knock on Sheng Qingyan’s door, only to find Sheng Qingyan had already gone out.

Ji You rolled her eyes and planned to go downstairs to find Chu Jiaojiao and the others.

The agreed departure time was 6 AM. It wasn’t class time yet, so many students were jogging outside. Upon seeing Ji You, they greeted her while running by.

Ji You waved at everyone with a smile.

Just then, she received a message from Senior He Bi.

Senior He Bi was the team captain. Ji You had not seen him since returning to school and didn’t know what he was up to. Receiving a message from him unexpectedly made Ji You concentrate.

This message from Senior He Bi was obviously sent to everyone entering the Space Rift this time, informing them of the meeting point.

After reading it, Ji You decided to find a Floating Car to head to Dock 3.

The next moment, she was about to take a step when she suddenly heard someone nearby say softly, "Get in."

Ji You was stunned.

She quickly looked up and found a small Floating Car parked less than 5 meters in front of her. But curiously, why hadn’t she noticed this flashy car before?

Ji You walked forward a few steps and indeed saw Senior He Bi.

The car window rolled down to reveal Senior He Bi’s face, which looked the same as usual. Ji You glanced twice before He Bi lifted his eyelids and said, "What are you looking at? Handsome faces cost money."

Ji You: "..."

Ji You criticized, "A face as ordinary as this."

"If you’re blind, go see an eye doctor." He Bi tapped the driver’s cabin and said, "Get in; keep talking, and I’ll smack you."

Ji You jumped in, asking, "Where are the others?"

He Bi sneered, "They have hands, feet, and money. Can’t they get to the meeting point themselves?"

Ji You laughed sheepishly, "Senior He Bi, I was really wrong about you before; you’re not a scumbag, you’re a big warm guy."

He Bi said, "The rental fee for the car is 10 credit points; we split it."

Ji You: "..."

Ji You twitched her mouth, saying, "So cheap and stingy, typical behavior from you."

"If I don’t carpool with you, why pick you up? You think I have too much free time?" He Bi tapped the payment code of the driver’s cabin and said, "Pay quickly, 5 credit points short, or the car won’t start."

Ji You rolled her eyes dramatically in exasperation, "Can’t you spare 5 more credit points?"

He Bi said, "I’m poor, stingy, and thrifty."

Ji You: "..."

He Bi said, "Hurry up."

Ji You was so frustrated she almost jumped out of the car, but she held back. Reluctantly agreeing, she paid, and the self-driving Floating Car started slowly toward the destination.

Ji You cursed, "Scumbag!"

He Bi hummed, "Curse again and I’ll make you get out and go on foot."

Ji You said, "I’m not getting out; I paid half the car fare. Why should I? You should get out."

He Bi said, "Why should I get out? I spent 5 solid credit points to rent this car; if anyone’s getting out, it’s you."

Ji You glanced at Senior He Bi’s face and hummed, "After not seeing you for a while, Senior He Bi, you really have gotten more scummy."

He Bi said, "Right back at you."

Ji You said, "Senior, when we get to Dock 3, are we waiting for anyone? Are we leaving right away?"

He Bi suddenly asked, "Are you excited?"

Ji You said, "Of course."

He Bi was silent for a moment, the corners of his lips raising slightly, and said, "Simple-minded people think more freely; their brain capacity is limited."

"..." Ji You was speechless, "Speak properly, don’t always attack people; do you really think being Senior He Bi means I won’t hit you?"

Upon hearing this, He Bi chuckled softly, "Alright, I won’t attack any more; bullying simple-minded people has no sense of achievement."

With scumbag He Bi around, Ji You suddenly had no expectations for the upcoming journey.

He Bi suddenly asked, "Did Yaya find you before she left?"

Ji You was taken aback, "She did."

He Bi nodded and continued asking, "Did she say anything?"

Ji You replied, "Can’t you ask her yourself?"

He Bi: "..."

He Bi’s eyelids twitched, stifling the impulse to hit people and persisted in asking, "Did she mention me?"

Ji You shrugged, "Sorry, she didn’t."

He Bi: "..."

Still, He Bi didn’t seem particularly dejected or disappointed, eyes fixed on the front car window. "It would be weird if she really mentioned me to you."
