Chapter 386: Chapter 386: Your Relatives Are My Relatives
Ji You scooped up a atball and stuffed it into Chu Jiaojiao’s bowl, urging earnestly, "Jiaojiao, eat up quickly, while it’s hot, it won’t taste good when it cools down."
Chu Jiaojiao smiled so hard her eyes disappeared, quickly stuffing the atball into her mouth.
As soon as she did, Ji You imdiately grabbed a piece of lettuce, swished it lightly in the pot, and handed it to Chu Jiaojiao, smiling, "This lettuce tastes best blanched for just 1 second, Jiaojiao, this is for you."
Chu Jiaojiao, with a atball in her mouth, just brought her bowl over.
Ji You placed the lettuce into her bowl.
Watching this scene, others were speechless.
Sheng Qingyan curled her lips, "poor soul, I want to eat 1-second blanched lettuce too..."
Ji You rolled her eyes, "Help yourself, and you will have plenty to eat."
Sheng Qingyan: "..."
Sheng Qingyan cursed, "Such a snob."
Ji You replied seriously, "What’s wrong with being a snob? Did I eat your family’s rice?"
Sheng Qingyan was sowhat speechless, "You’re even proud of it... Blanche so lettuce for , and my family’s Old Man Sheng will send you a few starships..."
Ji You’s finger twitched, and she also felt a tremble at the tip of her heart, but it was just for a mont, and then she regained her composure, snorting, "With that unpredictable and unreliable attitude of yours, I don’t believe a word..."
As if blanching so lettuce could get you a few starships!
Sheng Qingyan: "..."
"Ji You, let’s not bother with him," Chu Jiaojiao glared at Sheng Qingyan and pointed at a piece of lamb, "I want to eat lamb personally blanched by Ji You..."
Ji You smiled sweetly: "Alright, alright..."
Everyone: "..."
This scene was truly spicy to the eyes. If it weren’t for the delicious spread on the table keeping them, Yue Qiguang, Yue Qiyuan, and Sheng Qingyan would’ve taken off a long ti ago.
Ji You ate deliciously, and so did Chu Jiaojiao, who was being fed. Ji You glared at Yue Qiguang, Yue Qiyuan, and Sheng Qingyan who kept snatching at and vegetables from her, but she didn’t forget to look after Shen Changqing, with a beaming smile, she said, "Shen Changqing, eat more, you’re too skinny."
Shen Changqing: "..."
Shen Changqing silently glanced at his well-ford biceps, bowed his head, and ate with a pang of bitterness.
After a while, Ji You suddenly asked, "By the way, aside from Jiaojiao and Shen Changqing, does anyone else have so impressive relatives? Look—we’re all so close now, there’s no need to separate ’mine’ from ’yours,’ your relatives are my relatives. It’s good to know beforehand, so I can greet them and recognize relatives when we et."
Everyone: "..."
This opportunistic attitude was unparalleled.
And the thing was, number 4444 had such a natural air when saying these words and doing these things, without showing the slightest embarrassnt.
The thickness of her skin was indeed unmatched.
Sheng Qingyan chugged her drink and kept eating the hotpot, then wiped her mouth, and said gruffly: "There’s nothing special about my family, just involved in building and repairing starships, but I’m not interested in that, my lifelong interest is to be a spoilt brat that mooches off family and waits to die..."
Ji You: "..."
Ji You shook her head, "Alright, you can shut up now, I’m not interested in you."
Sheng Qingyan: "..."
Ji You turned to look at the brothers Yue Qiguang and Yue Qiyuan.
With their mouths filled with food, Yue Qiyuan was uninterested in answering, while Yue Qiguang casually said, "There’s nothing special about our family, just a warehouse manager, and when they’re free, my mom and dad also need to do so cleaning part-ti, maintaining hygiene and all."
Ji You: "???"
Ji You was completely baffled.
Warehouse manager?
And they need to work part-ti as cleaners as well?
What kind of job is that?
Mall service personnel, security staff?
Or—
Seeing Ji You looking bewildered, Shen Changqing, who had been silent all along, said softly, "Alliance Legion logistics chief manager, in charge of military supplies, also occasionally helps clean up post-battlefields."
Ji You: "!!!"
Ji You almost sprayed out a mouthful of food.
She managed to keep the food in her mouth, but she accidentally knocked over her cup of water, splashing onto ngng who was sitting close beside her. ngng shook its fur, "h?"
Ji You quickly reached out to help ngng dry off the water droplets from its fur.
She didn’t want to make a big deal out of it, but—
But—
But Ji You suddenly realized that her stingy, shaless little friends each had such astonishing backgrounds, not one of them was ordinary. She was genuinely shocked for a mont.
All of them were rich and handso, or rich and beautiful, leaving her as the lone poor D-type. Selling the family’s doors, floors, bricks, and even herself, piece by piece, and still not able to reach the threshold of their wealth...
Ji You: "..."
So tiring.
After a mont of shock, Ji You watched as a piece of at she had just thrown into the boiling pot beca cooked, and she quickly reached out with her chopsticks to fish it out...
A pair of chopsticks ca flying from an angle and took the at away.
Ji You: "..."
Ji You glared at Yue Qiguang and scolded, "Your family is so incredible, and you’re still fighting with
for at? Did you reincarnate from a starving ghost?"
Yue Qiguang rolled his eyes: "What does my family’s status have to do with
liking at?"
Ji You: "..."
His argunt made so much sense that she was left speechless.
At that mont—
Another piece of at that Yue Qiyuan had put in seed to be cooked through, and Ji You was quick this ti, snatched it swiftly, and stuffed it into her mouth.
Yue Qiyuan: "..."
Yue Qiyuan cursed, "Why are you stealing my at?"
Ji You righteously proclaid, "A brother’s debts are paid by his brother! Your brother stole my at, so of course, I’ll steal yours."
Yue Qiyuan: "..."
The aroma of the hotpot spread throughout the room, and everyone’s appetite was greatly stimulated. In a short while, a large pile of empty dishes was left behind.
Sheng Qingyan glanced at Ji You and suddenly said, "Poor dead, oh... you’ve been around for so long and yet you didn’t bother to find out about your classmates... Their backgrounds could be easily known with a simple search online, oh..."
Ji You: "!!!"
Ji You couldn’t help retorting, "Each of you is stingier and poorer than the last, how was I to know you’re actually not poor at all? If I’d known— Right! Today’s al is on you guys."
Everyone: "..."
Ji You chuckled, "I’m so poor already, would you still have
bleed cash? Doesn’t your conscience hurt?"
Everyone: "..."
Didn’t want to deal with this person anymore.
However, while they spoke like this, when everyone was about to pay the bill after the al, the hotpot restaurant owner explained with a smile, "Ji You has already paid in full. Thank you for your patronage, everyone."
Looking at Ji You, who was reluctantly parting with ngng, everyone had slightly complicated expressions. Number 4444, this guy, actually just enjoyed getting a small advantage verbally and would not really take advantage of others or harm their interests.
As the group prepared to leave, the holographic screen in the restaurant suddenly flashed, and then the image beca clear, starting to broadcast a new piece of news.
When they saw the figure appearing on the screen, Ji You, Chu Jiaojiao, and the others stopped in their tracks—
