Chapter 126

Du Chan couldn't help herself when she smelled the fragrance. She happily jumped to Liu Qingqing's side and hugged her arms and kept shaking them:

"Ah, sister Morning, I love you so much!"

Among these people, there is only one girl, Du Chan. She is the one who is closest to Liu Qingqing and also the person Liu Qingqing has the best relationship with except An Yanxi.

"I guess you like my cooking skills!"

Liu Qingqing directly exposed her sweet words. Humph, she would not be fooled!

"Oh, I like them all!"

Du Chan's mouth was wide open with laughter. Du Hongzhi couldn't help but hold his forehead when he saw his sister like this. It was obvious that his sister also had a bad temper, so why was she so docile in front of his sister in the early morning?

After the corn was roasted, they couldn't wait to eat one skewer each. As expected, it was delicious. So they thought to themselves:

They must hang out with Liu Qingqing, where they can have food and drink and improve their strength. How great!

They are not stupid. They all know their own strengths and weaknesses. Those who can make it to the worst list can say that no matter how hard they try later, they will never reach where they are today without opportunities.

But now that they have all improved so quickly, they naturally understand that this is due to Liu Qingqing's contribution.

Otherwise, how could such a coincidence happen that someone would come to guide them as soon as they formed a team with Liu Qingqing, and their strength and mental power would continue to improve?

Although they didn't know what Liu Qingqing had done, they all chose to keep their mouths shut.

They silently remembered Liu Qingqing's help in their hearts. It can be said that even if An Yanxi and Liu Qingqing fell into the water together, they would choose to save Liu Qingqing first.

But of course, they both know how to swim and don’t need to be rescued, just to give an example!

They naturally knew that Liu Qingqing was very coveted for having such abilities, so they all agreed to protect Liu Qingqing, even if it meant their death.

Some people started eating like this, and soon the corn was all gone. In the middle of the meal, Liu Qingqing even put out the fire and threw the sweet potatoes in the space into the fire to roast them with the residual heat.

Sweet potatoes are also a good thing. Liu Qingqing discovered this ten years ago when she was traveling with Zuo Zili and his group.

After everyone had eaten and drunk well, they stood up and went back. On the way, Liu Qingqing told everyone that she was now in college and had to attend classes, so she could not train with them in the Metaverse all the time!

An Yanxi and the others were also very curious. Liu Qingqing was already in college! Which university was it? They wanted to ask, but they couldn't bring themselves to ask. After all, this already involved matters in the real world.

It would be inappropriate to ask.

Seeing them hesitating like this, Liu Qingqing naturally guessed what they were thinking. Liu Qingqing smiled and said:

"There's nothing inconvenient to tell you. I'm currently studying at the First Military Academy of the Alliance."

After all, they are all in the same team, and I will tell them sooner or later. It is impossible for them to never meet in this life!

An Yanxi and his group were a little stunned. Liu Qingqing felt a little strange when she saw their shocked, confused, happy and hesitant expressions.

"What's wrong? Why do you have such expressions? Are you close to the First Military Academy of the Alliance?"

Liu Qingqing could only come up with this explanation. As expected, Du Chan excitedly rushed over and hugged Liu Qingqing:

"Oh, that's great! You actually came to the first military academy of the alliance. We can be together in the future."

Liu Qingqing also hugged Du Chan and smiled happily.

It turns out that we are all in the same place. Now that’s great, our future life will definitely not be monotonous.

But Liu Qingqing suddenly thought of something, and she asked An Yanxi with a complicated expression:

"You've been at the Alliance's top military academy for so many years, why don't you graduate and join the army?"

Liu Qingqing naturally didn't think that An Yanxi and the others stayed in the Alliance's No. 1 Military Academy because they were not strong enough, but An Yanxi was obviously so much older than her and still stayed in the school, which made her a little confused.

Everyone looked at each other, then turned around and said:

"Most of us are from side branches of the family or have been abandoned by the family, so we don't really want to expose our strength and let the family manipulate us."

It was fine at school; the people in their family didn't have that much influence, so even if there were family informants, it wouldn't be too restrictive. But if they actually graduated and left, that would be really troublesome.

Especially if their strength is exposed, they will inevitably be subjected to moral kidnapping by their families, and there will definitely be a group of people saying:

"It was all our fault before. Don't be angry with us. I believe you will understand us!"

"The family is so lucky to have you. When you go out to take up a position, you must put the family first!"

"You must remember that your interests are tied to your family's. Only when your family prospers will it be easier for you to climb up, so you must always put your family first!"

"Since you're already so capable, why not join the army? Our family is proud of you, so don't let them down!"

After a series of words like this, they are now abandoned pawns but at least they have freedom. If they really go out, perhaps even their movements will be controlled.

So after much deliberation, they unanimously decided to just stay in school and work as teaching assistants.

Liu Qingqing was stunned. She could understand An Yanxi and the others' concerns. However, if it were her, she would never confine herself to school.

At worst, they could just run away. Would it be more uncomfortable to be a mercenary on another planet? It's just that they still have concerns in their hearts and are worried about it!

However, as an outsider, Liu Qingqing couldn't say anything to them. She really had no right to make a decision for them. So all Liu Qingqing could do was to say to them with a firm look at this time:

"I may not be able to do anything else, but if someone bullies you, tell me and I'll help you fight back."

Everyone else was delighted when they heard this. She was indeed worthy of being their boss, the tigress of the mecha area.

Liu Qingqing then agreed to their wish to meet in person. The time was set for tomorrow at noon, with the location to be determined. After all, it would be quite late after leaving the Metaverse today.

When they were about to leave, they found Chen Mu standing there motionless, as if in a trance. Then they remembered that Chen Mu was not with them.

So there are a total of 11 people in their team, ten of whom are in the Alliance's First Military Academy, and they know nothing about Chenmu's situation.

Seeing that everyone's attention was focused on him, Chen Mu stood up and said in a relaxed tone, as if he had made a decision:

"I should be coming to the Alliance's No. 1 Military Academy next year. You guys have to protect me then!"

Everyone then realized that Chen Mu had not yet gone to college. Naturally, they couldn't ask why he hadn't gone to college at such an old age, but they all nodded in good faith.

Some of the boys, led by An Yanxi, ran over and hugged Chen Mu's shoulders. Some of them went up and punched him, but of course they didn't use much strength. Then they said:

"I know, I know. Just follow us when the time comes. We will definitely protect you well."
