Chapter 217: Chapter 72: Exposed

Suddenly, everything became clear.

The excellent teammate, You Shiqing, chimed in, “So where did Su Xiaocai go to chat with someone?”

Ji Heng turned his face away, thinking about coaxing information out, but no luck.

“You guys don’t know where she went either?” Ruo Ting squinted, watching them keep silent, and analyzed matter-of-factly, “What’s she doing behind our backs? Is it dangerous? Why didn’t she bring us, her comrades in arms?”

“Stop talking.” Feng Huai nudged Ruo Ting with his burly elbow.

Ruo Ting fiddled with his sleeve, “Let me finish, it’s fine to take all the credit, but why not include us for fun? We’re all classmates from Capital Star School, she can’t be too selfish.”

You Shiqing kept coughing and signaling with his eyes, while Feng Huai grabbed Ruo Ting’s shoulder.

Brother, you’re speaking on our behalf, you need to be careful about our image.

Don’t be fooled by Nuo Ting’s gentle and graceful appearance, he’s full of cunning.

“Not knowing where she went, how can you call yourselves partners? We’re different; we’re concerned about where she went and worry about her getting scolded or being wronged.”

“Ha? Little Ruo, thanks for your passive-aggressive remarks, so why don’t you say them to my face? I’m decent at detecting sarcasm.”

Su Xiaocai’s voice suddenly came from behind Ruo Ting, a gentle tone with a chilling, sinister flavor.

Ruo Ting’s neck went stiff, and he opened and closed his mouth, hoarsely saying, “Brother, you aren’t being fair.”

Feng Huai shrugged helplessly, You Shiqing was giving signals, it was Ruo Ting who didn’t catch on.

Without some level of understanding, can you blame someone?

Anyway, they’re from a rival school, there’s no sympathy seeing him flounder.

“What, are you dissatisfied with me? Why don’t you turn around and say it.”

Ruo Ting turned around, surprised to find he was already at eye level with Su Xiaocai.

He couldn’t help but look down, seeing Su Xiaocai standing on a stool.

“Where are your eyes looking? You think I’m not worthy of facing you?” Su Xiaocai stood on tiptoe, looking down from above.

Ruo Ting’s heart skipped a beat.

Ugh! No one dared to say she wasn’t worthy.

The petite girl stood on the stool, arrogantly domineering and overly self-assured.

If it had been anyone else, they would’ve been ridiculed thoroughly.

Ruo Ting said, “No, I’m just concerned about your whereabouts, worried you might be misunderstood or captured.”

“Is that so? I don’t believe you.” Su Xiaocai jumped off the stool, “Your level of sarcasm, I cannot be bothered to listen to. You should go take some classes.”

Ruo Ting really took it to heart, a tuft of hair stood up on his head, is there such a course?

He humbly asked, “Where can I learn?”

Oh boy, he’s serious.

This time, it’s Hu Ping’s turn to step in.

Hu Ping slicked back his bangs, shook his head with flair, and pulled out a business card from who knows where, “This is perfect for you to observe and learn.”

The golden card was printed with garish and flashy roses, luxurious yet tacky.

Ruo Ting suspiciously took the card, which read “Amusement Salesman, Psychological Guidance Expert, Take on all kinds of online business, Charming Public Relations for Male and Female, Book multiple at once…”

Several curious eyes gathered to look.

They were all silent.

It must be said, it’s quite suitable for studying “tea ceremony.”

“Wow, does this count as borderline profession?” Wu Qingqing clicked her tongue in wonder.

“Not borderline, it’s a legitimate profession, legal and proper. The business card is just one of the gimmicks, when playing single-player games and getting bored, doesn’t everyone often find guys or gals to chat with? The staff of this company are more professional, all trained.”

Hu Ping earnestly told Ruo Ting, “Use it well, and you’ll open the door to a New World.”

The pure-hearted Ruo Ting blushed, unable to get rid of it fast enough, “Thank you, you’re a good person, but I don’t need it.”

“Pfft hahaha.” Everyone present laughed.

The two principals of Junya were very strict and traditional, they wouldn’t allow top students to “go astray.”

Though Ruo Ting was crafty, he was still a bit outmatched by the slick Hu Ping.

With the joke over, Su Xiaocai turned to Wu Qingqing and the others, saying, “I’m leaving early this afternoon, there’s a special ship to take me, passing by my home planet, do you want to come along?”

Of course, they’ll go.

Junhui and Junya also expressed their interest.

Su Xiaocai said, “Junhui and Junya aren’t on the way.”

“As everyone knows, our Junya is also on Capital Star, so it’s very much on the way,” Ruo Ting argued.

Su Xiaocai made it clear she wasn’t listening, only saying to Wu Qingqing and the group, “If you want to leave together, pack your luggage and meet in an hour.”

Hu Ping pulled Liu Xun along cheerfully, finally able to leave.

Living on the 022 Mechanical Planet was so dull; while there was no lack of things to explore and enjoy, staying too long left them feeling stifled.

The two purposely cheered in front of Junhui Junya’s people, doing belly dances, looking so irritating.
