Jiang Qiuqiu didn’t ask Mo Chengyu why she couldn’t give her a ride. She could clearly sense that while this beautiful and badass woman was usually a bit eccentric—
As she stepped outside, her gaze swept over the tree by the door, the small houses in the distance, and a few other forms of cover. ’She must have a classified job,’ Jiang Qiuqiu thought.
’There were people protecting her everywhere.’
’Maybe Black Hole is here to protect her too, just at a slightly higher rank?’
’After all, they both graduated from the Federal Military Academy.’

"So frustrating!" Mo Chengyu sighed. "This feels awful. Do you think sweet little Qiuqiu will think I blew her off on purpose?"
"She won’t. Miss Qiuqiu is very smart. She can probably guess that your position makes things complicated, Director."
"It really is complicated," Mo Chengyu sighed dramatically. "But what can I do? My face is just too famous in the Federation. A lot of the professors at Federation University know . If I so much as walk around campus, soone’s bound to say Qiuqiu got in through the back door."
"You don’t have to worry. Even though Miss Qiuqiu is young, she’s very reliable." ’At the very least, she seems a hundred tis more reliable than the Director,’ he thought.
The Right Protector chid in as well, but unlike Zuo Kai, he voiced his agreent directly: "What’s there for you to worry about, Director? Qiuqiu seems even more reliable than you."
The remark made Mo Chengyu, who was sitting off to the side, look up and shoot him a death glare. "What did you say?"
"..."
"Nothing, Director. Director Zhang just sent a comm, I need to take it."
The Right Protector quietly slipped away.
Mo Chengyu rested a hand on her head. "That damn Righty. He’s so tactless."
’Of course,’ Zuo Kai thought. ’After all, the truth always hurts the most.’
Zuo Kai grumbled internally.
"Kai, you tell . Am I unreliable?"
"The Director is the best at cha research in the entire institute." ’As long as she isn’t researching cha, she’s the most mischievous,’ he added silently.
Mo Chengyu humd in satisfaction. "See, you get . Righty should really go hang out with my older brother. Neither of them knows how to talk."
Zuo Kai just smiled and said nothing.

Jiang Qiuqiu rarely, if ever, went outside.
With advanced logistics robots, anything she wanted to buy could be delivered to her door.
To watch movies, she had holographic viewing equipnt right at ho.
Plus, she had been busy with her spiritual power training recently, so she didn’t have the ti.
Sitting in the Hovercar, she looked curiously at everything in the main district.
Unlike the suburbs, the tall buildings here were spaced apart. They weren’t packed densely together; instead, they were arranged in what you might call "little clusters."
Buildings of the sa type were grouped together, clearly delineating what each part of the main district was for.
A woman on the Hovercar saw how young she looked and how curiously she was staring at the world outside, so she asked, "Young lady, are you here on Federation Star for school?"
"Ah?" Jiang Qiuqiu shook her head and replied with a smile, "No, I’m just going to register. It’s not confird that I’ll be attending yet."
"Oh, is that so," the woman said with a small exclamation. "Well then, I wish you the best of luck!"
The well-wishes from a stranger left her feeling warm. After getting out of the car, Jiang Qiuqiu headed straight for Federation University.
The mont she arrived at the university’s entrance, she was struck with awe.
In that mont, the technology of the future world left her utterly stunned once again.
Part of Federation University was actually floating in the sky.
Even though the original owner’s mories contained the concept, her 21st-century soul couldn’t contain its astonishnt upon seeing such a magnificent Sky City for the first ti.
’Is this going to be my future university?’
’Going to university here would be incredible!’
