CHAPTER 349: CHAPTER 349: PAH! GONG QIANG EXPRESSES HIS REAL-NAME DISDAIN FOR THIS SCUMBAG!

Sheng Qing didn’t understand why Han Yali was cheering her on.

But out of politeness, she still nodded, "Thank you."

This made Han Yali even more convinced of her guess. Her pretty eyes were filled with pink bubbles as she sat next to Zuo Jing, whispering with her hand over her mouth, "Old Zuo, I think there’s something going on between those two..."

Zuo Jing, who was cautious about temporary teammates and had checked up on Qian Qi even after being privately talked to by the principal, thus knowing Qian Qi was a junior: ...

"Mind your own business..." Otherwise, in the future, it will all become embarrassing past.

However, Han Yali misunderstood Zuo Jing’s meaning and continued to happily gossip.

Sheng Qing wished to sit next to Qian Qi, and after placing a pillow between them, she remained silent for a while before asking, "Qian, can I sleep next to you?"

Qian Qi was a bit surprised, not understanding why Sheng Qing wanted to sleep with her in broad daylight. However, noticing the fatigue in Sheng Qing’s eyes, Qian Qi generously nodded, "Sure, go ahead and sleep."

After saying that, she even deliberately moved to the far left, allowing Sheng Qing to lie fully on the bench. "The bench isn’t long enough; you can rest your head on my lap."

Sheng Qing glanced at Qian Qi’s thin legs. Although her gaze remained indifferent and calm, Qian Qi could still detect a hint of hesitation and doubt.

Qian Qi couldn’t help but pat her thigh, the sound of her hand slapping against the small amount of flesh resounded, "It’s not uncomfortable! I just have a small frame!!!"

She definitely has some meat! Plump and juicy!

Sheng Qing pursed her lips and nodded. It wasn’t that she disliked Qian Qi not having flesh; she was just afraid of numbing Qian Qi’s legs after a while.

But since Qian Qi said so, Sheng Qing wasn’t shy and directly lied on her side on the bench, resting her head on Qian Qi’s thigh.

Indeed, the girl’s legs had a little flesh. Sheng Qing clutched the pillow in her arms tightly and closed her eyes.

Beside her, Qian Qi and Han Yali were chatting in low voices. After a while, their conversation stopped. Han Yali got up and left, and the surroundings fell into silence.

Because of this, Sheng Qing could hear the girl’s slight breathing, and Qian’s hand gently resting on her arm. Whether consciously or unconsciously, her index finger tapped lightly, its rhythm unexpectedly coinciding with the breathing...

A long-lost sense of safety enveloped her, and gradually, Sheng Qing’s eyelids grew heavier. She didn’t know when she started to emit the rhythmic breathing of someone asleep.

Han Yali took a blanket from Qian Qi’s room and found Sheng Qing already asleep upon returning. Following Qian Qi’s indication, she gently covered Sheng Qing with the blanket to prevent her from catching a cold from the sea breeze while asleep. Then she returned to her seat.

Just at this time, Gong Qiang came out to give orders. Passing by and seeing Sheng Qing sleeping right on Qian Qi’s lap, he was instantly stunned with his mouth agape.

What the hell, weren’t they sneaking around in the room sleeping together just the night before, and now they’re openly showing affection in broad daylight?!

How could he face the girlfriend waiting for him at school!?

Ptooey! Scumbag!

He previously thought Qian Dafang refusing to give Yan Shuiyue’s contact info in public was something a top-notch man would do, but now it seems like he’s secretly given both his girlfriend’s Light Brain Number and his own small account!

Ptooey! Gong Qiang publicly despises such a lousy man!

——

Qian Qi didn’t understand why recently Gong Qiang’s gaze at her was always strange, even at meals he couldn’t help but spout some sarcastic remarks like, "Some men are just animals who can’t control their lower halves," "Successful men rather care more about family relationships, unfaithful men are more likely to fail," and "Being human means having principles, even an unacknowledged true love is a crime," and "A man who cheats for you today can cheat for someone else tomorrow."

"Did you have a screw loose in your head?" Qian Qi looked at Gong Qiang suspiciously, "Why are you talking about such well-known nonsense?"

"Oh, you even know it’s nonsense~" Gong Qiang spoke sarcastically, "Student Qian Dafang, you’re surely not this kind of garbage man, right?"

Qian Qi: ?

Of course not! I’m a woman!

"Nutcase." Qian Qi picked up her tray and left, too lazy to continue the conversation with Gong Qiang.

"See, he’s guilty." Gong Qiang turned sideways and urged Brother Su, "Brother Su, stay away from him in the future, don’t follow and learn his bad ways."

Su Ang: ...

Su Ang looked deeply at Gong Qiang, then shook his head with a sigh, grabbed his tray, and left as well.

Gong Qiang: ?

What happened?

What was that about! Wasn’t he right! Although the Seven Great Families are sometimes jerks, they’re still the kind of good men who won’t cheat!

Unlike Qian Qi! Just because she has some ability, she acts special!

After this little episode was over, the warships successfully rendezvoused with the main force that had entered the instance before and began heading to the next location.

"Admiral, are we going to find the instance boss now?" The Gong Family Army had actually long noticed the Flying Surveillance Ball’s broadcast. After all, with just a hint of spiritual power, they could detect this thing, but having received orders not to care, they let the ball continue streaming the instance’s battle conditions.

Because of this, they also knew some things about Qian Qi, assuming that after the rendezvous, they’d directly go fight the boss.

"We’re not going to find the boss; we’re going to look for some Magic Plants first," Gong Qiang ordered. "Just follow our ship."

Creating Water Breath Magic Potions wasn’t something he needed to explain to these subordinates. Moreover, as a commander, he had to preemptively evaluate the situation where the Water Breath Magic Potion ingredients might not be enough to avoid the Gong Family Army’s dependence on Water Element Magic Potions, leading to insufficient combat will and unnecessary casualties.

Sigh...

How he missed Tang Yan; if she were here, he wouldn’t have to worry about these things at all.

And that Su guy, typically completely uninvolved in affairs, yet during battles he’s so obedient and effective that if it weren’t for his usefulness, Gong Qiang would have already kicked him into the sea, instead of wasting six boxes of rations daily.

Two days later.

The warship landed on land per the coordinates given by Qian Qi, more precisely, it was an island almost as large as a country, inhabited by many Demons, including some amphibious ones, with abundant resources.

The remaining ingredients for the Water Breath Magic Potion formula could be found on this island, but due to its size and the large number of Demons, it was expected to take quite some time to gather all the necessary herbs.

Gong Qiang hadn’t expected to land, so the warship wasn’t equipped with automobiles, motorcycles, or bicycles, making him lament, "Had I known, I would have brought some transport; this might take us several days on foot..."

Qian Qi looked up at the sky, smiling warmly, "No problem, since we don’t have transport, we’ll just make one ourselves, right?"

Gong Qiang: "Huh?"

Make transport? But what vehicle could be more useful than a speed attribute or a car?

Could she actually create a car?
