Why she was on the list and why everything that happened at the Eagle Space Station was reported, Ji You temporarily didn’t know. Senior He Bi also didn’t say, so Ji You and Chu Jiaojiao guessed it might have been reported by Teacher Mu Jianling.
On this point, everyone was exhausted and didn’t have the energy to find the reason. They unanimously decided to return to the dormitory imdiately.
During the mission, there was hardly a day of genuine relaxation to sleep peacefully. Every day was a high-intensity stress on the nerves. After Ji You and her friends returned to the dorm, each went back to their own single room. Everyone did the sa thing: fell asleep imdiately.
Ji You pushed open the door, entered the three-bedroom one-living room temporarily belonging to her, which besides the necessary facilities and a poor-quality plastic rose on the dining table, had hardly any decorations. When she was on the garbage planet, she still had the leisure to collect different kinds of plastic fake flowers while picking up scraps to decorate her house, eating nutrient solution three als a day and creating a sense of ceremony. However, after arriving at the school, Ji You trained intensively every day and had hardly any free ti. She didn’t even have ti to clean up the dusty plastic roses on the dining table.
"Clean." Kicking off her shoes, Ji You imdiately spoke to the self-cleaning system in the room.
Very quickly.
The self-cleaning system activated, and in less than two minutes, it cleaned the entire single dormitory. Imdiately, Ji You’s campus points card sent a ssage: [Student Ji You No. 4444, used the cleaning system once, 1 point deducted.]
Ji You’s mouth twitched.
Darn it.
This self-funded program is all about money. Not only do you have to pay tuition out of pocket, but you also need to pay a hefty sponsorship fee, and using various equipnt and facilities at the school all costs money.
Even Ji You wanting to work part-ti in the cafeteria wasn’t qualified.
Simply——
Miserable.
After a bit of complaining, Ji You jumped into her soft bed, closed her eyes, and within seconds, the sound of light breathing filled the room.
...
The next day.
Ji You was awakened by a ringing. She glanced at the caller ID, which read ’Director Wang’ in big letters. Ji You’s brow furrowed instantly. She really wanted to pretend she hadn’t seen it, and just as she was about to fake sleep, the ringing stopped, and then——
Ding-dong~
A beep indicated an incoming ssage.
Ji You glanced over and saw several words: [Student Ji You, you can pretend you didn’t hear the phone, but rember to pay this year’s sponsorship fee on ti——every day a debt-chasing sufferer——remarks from Director Wang.]
Ji You: "..."
Since when did debt-chasing beco suffering?
If there was a huge heap of money out there uncollected, Ji You would wake up smiling in a dream. Unfortunately, as a miserable person burdened with 10 billion debts, she had not tasted such troubles.
Today is the official day for registration. As long as she’s registered and paid the tuition, Ji You will successfully advance from the first year to the second year. After that, she’ll be a sophomore student.
Thinking about it, Ji You still grudgingly paid the tuition and sponsorship fees again.
As soon as she completed the paynt, Ji You received a new ssage from Director Wang: [No debt, you’re a good student of the school.]
Ji You: "..."
With so many self-financed students in the school, does Director Wang really pursue the funds and personally reply to each student? Ji You mumbled, "Director Wang sure is free."
But——
The next second, Ji You received another ssage: [This ssage was sent to multiple recipients, please do not reply.]
Ji You: "..."
After closing the ssage, Ji You took out a nutrient solution and sent ssages to Xie Lingzhi, Xie Chuanqiong, Lea, and Senior Shi Ya, telling them that she had returned to school safely.
The four of them seed to be busy with sothing and didn’t reply.
Ji You set up the table, wiped her plastic rose, and placed it in the center of the dining table. Then, she lit a handmade candle and, after a bunch of arrangents, took out a nutrient solution from the Space Button.
Low-level.
Curled inside the chanical Space Button and now free to open the Space Button again, Little Golden Dragon witnessed this scene and remarked in exasperation, "With all that fuss, I thought you were going to eat a full banquet, but it’s just one nutrient solution, and it’s low-level. Why the big scene?"
Hearing the voice, Ji You paused her action of splitting the low-level nutrient solution in half, then without hesitation, she stuffed half of it into her mouth and tightly clenched the other half. After finishing it, she wiped her mouth with her hand and said, "Gone."
Little Golden Dragon: "..."
Little Golden Dragon remarked in exasperation, "I refuse to eat low-level nutrition. Unless it’s high-level, don’t expect to open my precious mouth."
Upon hearing this, Ji You confidently offered the other half to Little Golden Dragon, "Following a poor master like , there are no high-level nutrient solutions, only low-level ones, and it’s half a piece. Whether you eat it is up to you..."
As she spoke, the half piece in her hand was suddenly snatched by Little Golden Dragon.
Ji You rolled her eyes, "Weren’t you saying you wouldn’t eat?"
Little Golden Dragon slurped it all down and, after eating, touched his mouth and said, "That was what I used to say. Now I’ve lowered my standards; as long as it fills my belly, it’s fine."
Saying so, Little Golden Dragon suddenly made a face of dismay and complained, "This damn low-level nutrient solution, even after 50 years, the taste is still terrible."
Ji You sneered, "As long as it fills the belly, where do you get room to be picky?"
Then, Ji You took out another nutrient solution, again low-level, broke it in half, and handed a piece to Little Golden Dragon, "Still hungry?"
This ti, Little Golden Dragon didn’t hold back, grabbed it, and grumbled, "It only fills the belly, at best."
Seeing Little Golden Dragon finish it within seconds, Ji You handed over her remaining half, "As my cha, I can’t let you go hungry. This half of mine is for you too."
The nutrient solution may look like just a small stick, but it’s a compressed-type food with an impressive satiety effect. Eating one stick can make even a big eater feel stuffed. By now, Little Golden Dragon was actually already full, but seeing Ji You caring for him so much, saving her portion to give to him, he couldn’t refuse the generosity. Putting on a proud face, Little Golden Dragon declared, "Woman, since you care about so much, I’ll reluctantly eat it."
And so, he ate another half.
Then.
Little Golden Dragon could eat no more.
Just then, Ji You took out a bag of beef jerky from the Space Button.
Little Golden Dragon: "..."
Ji You laughed heartily, biting into a piece of beef jerky, "It’s not my fault you can’t eat anymore."
Little Golden Dragon was so annoyed he nearly jumped up.
Once Ji You finished eating, she led Little Golden Dragon to the student registration center to register together. The registration center was bustling, filled with students coming and going, including those in the sa grade as Ji You and so of this year’s new students.
