The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers
Chapter 385: Your Second Aunt Is My Second Aunt
CHAPTER 385: CHAPTER 385: YOUR SECOND AUNT IS MY SECOND AUNT
A group of people entered the restaurant, and Mengmeng stuck to Ji You like a clingy child, unable to let go. The hotpot restaurant owner looked at this scene with a hint of jealousy, saying, "Ji You, Mengmeng knew you were coming and ran to the door to meet you."
Hearing that, Ji You couldn’t help but pat Mengmeng’s head and laughed, saying, "Good kid."
The restaurant was full, but the owner had no trouble at all, he simply moved his own dining area out for Ji You and her group to use.
Sheng Qingyan was the first to sit down, casually flipping through the menu, and without any restraint, ordered over a dozen of her favorite items, saying, "Seeing you’re poor, I’ll just order these..."
Yue Qiguang was the second to help himself, a variety of meat and fish dishes, he almost wished he could order a plate of each, but at the last moment, he showed a bit of conscience and didn’t order them all to one side.
Shen Changqing was a bit more reserved, only ordering a few dishes he liked.
Chu Jiaojiao and Yue Qiyuan said polite words, but their actions were ruthless.
Ji You watched them, her mouth twitching: "You guys are really helping yourselves, aren’t you?"
Upon hearing this, everyone’s fingers trembled, and they quickly tried to take back the orders they had just made. Sheng Qingyan even rolled her eyes at Ji You and said, "You’re not going to take it back now, are you?"
Ji You chuckled and said, "No, I’m not. You guys just eat, fill your bellies, sis’s got plenty of money!" In fact, she still tightly held 160,000 points in her hand.
With these points, Ji You could easily spend extravagantly at school.
Sheng Qingyan was slightly reassured and said, "That’s good then."
The group ordered a yin-yang pot, half clear broth and half spicy broth. Only Shen Changqing preferred a lighter taste, while the others were all about the spicy, all indulging with oil dripping from their mouths.
Next to Ji You, Mengmeng sat obediently, rubbing her head against Ji You from time to time, sneakily pecking her on the cheek.
This scene made the others green with envy.
Suddenly—
The large screen in the living room flickered, and an entire wall displayed a news report, broadcasting the latest news from the neighboring Galaxy Empire. Crown Prince Ji, who had volunteered to abdicate, now Prince Ji, his illness had suddenly worsened, and he was undergoing emergency treatment—
Ji You and the others’ chopsticks halted.
Chu Jiaojiao shook her head and said, "It’s tough being a Crown Prince, and not easy being a Prince either. It’s hard to know if this former Crown Prince will make it."
Yue Qiyuan sighed and said, "It’s tough."
Yue Qiguang and Sheng Qingyan were too busy eating to care about this.
Shen Changqing looked at the screen, seemingly contemplating something, a faint sadness in his eyes.
Ji You popped a meatball into her mouth and asked, "Speaking of which, do you guys know this Crown Prince?"
Chu Jiaojiao shook her head, then nodded, saying, "I saw him once from a distance when I accompanied my grandmother to an event organized by the All Alliance, but I was too young back then to remember what he looked like. He was just a weak and sickly kid who would gasp for breath after every step."
Ji You was shocked: "So you’ve actually seen him."
Chu Jiaojiao lifted her arm, showing off her toned biceps, proudly saying, "See this muscle? It’s only half of what my grandmother had when she was young. That should tell you how formidable my grandmother was."
Ji You opened her mouth: "A barbie with muscles?"
Yue Qiguang snorted with a laugh and said disdainfully, "Ignorant, her grandmother was the Commander of the First Legion of the Alliance. She once fought a level 8 Star Beast with her bare hands."
Ji You: "!!!"
Ji You was shocked, staring at Chu Jiaojiao in disbelief, then turning to Yue Qiguang with the same incredulous look.
Yue Qiguang curled his lips and said, "Compared to Commander Chu, Chu Jiaojiao has a long way to go."
Chu Jiaojiao waved her fist, cursing, "A long way to go, maybe, but still enough to beat you to death."
Yue Qiguang purses his lips, falling silent.
Ji You still couldn’t believe it, mouth agape, she asked Chu Jiaojiao, "Jiaojiao, is what Yue Qiguang just said true? Our grandma is that amazing?"
Our grandma?
Yue Qiguang, Yue Qiyuan, Sheng Qingyan, and others’ ears twitched, feeling a sting but stayed quiet.
Chu Jiaojiao chuckled and waved her hand, saying, "That was in the past. My grandma has been retired for 10 years now, and she’s just an old lady who likes to square dance in Alliance Park, often causing noise pollution and has been complained about several times. Now, the commander of the First Legion is my Second Aunt."
Ji You: "!!!"
Ji You leaned in earnestly, "Our Second Aunt is that amazing?"
Chu Jiaojiao waved her hand and said, "Not sure, I’ve hardly seen her a few times anyway. My Second Aunt looks quite fierce. When I was small and didn’t want to eat, our nanny robot would scare me with her."
Ji You: "..."
Ji You hurriedly activated her Light Computer and searched for a photo of the commander of the First Legion. Upon seeing it, she almost jumped, "Damn! Our Second Aunt is so cool!"
More than just cool, just through the holographic screen, Second Aunt Chu in her military uniform, with an aura of unbeatable confidence, could make men bow down in submission and women bend over backwards!
Ji You trembled with excitement as she turned off her Light Computer. When she looked at Chu Jiaojiao, the expression on her face could not be described as flattery: "Jiaojiao, I had no idea you were such a hidden big shot."
Chu Jiaojiao chuckled, saying, "I’ve always been a big shot."
Ji You: "..."
This girl, indeed, always seemed full of confidence and acted like she was the best in the world to everyone.
Ji You moved closer, squeezing out a pleasing smile, "Jiaojiao, does our grandma, our Second Aunt, ever teach you any special Body Building Techniques for improving physical strength?"
It wasn’t often that classmate Ji You was willing to get so close, which made Chu Jiaojiao want to take the opportunity to touch her face, to take a bit of advantage. But Chu Jiaojiao knew that though Ji You looked like a harmless little rabbit, she was actually a fierce beast with sharp teeth. It wasn’t that she didn’t dare to provoke the beast, just that she was afraid that if she annoyed her, she wouldn’t want to hang out with her anymore.
So, Chu Jiaojiao held back.
Chu Jiaojiao scratched her head and said, "I’m not sure about any secrets, but I do have a Body Building Technique. If classmate Ji You is interested, I can send it to you right now."
Ji You: "!!!"
Ji You’s eyes widened, "Are you sure?"
Chu Jiaojiao was nonchalant, saying, "Of course I’m sure. As long as classmate Ji You likes it, I’ll definitely give it to you." She also knew that Ji You was working hard to improve her physical strength, so she’d definitely lend a hand if she could.
Ji You, moved in her heart, didn’t know what to say, stammered, "But... but that’s a secret technique."
On the side, Sheng Qingyan rolled her eyes, saying, "Do you really think it’s that precious? In the All Alliance, which Legion doesn’t have some method for Body Building? What’s the rush? Once you join a Legion, you’ll naturally get it."
Ji You didn’t pay attention to Sheng Qingyan and just looked at Chu Jiaojiao, moved, "Jiaojiao, from now on you’re my good sister. Your Second Aunt is my dear Second Aunt, and your grandma is my dear grandma."
Everyone: "..."
