However, with Xi Xingxue around, none of this will ever happen.
Xi Xingxue grinned.
With everyone's joint efforts, the campsite was quickly packed up, and vehicles carrying supplies and people began to set off.
The inner team members, representing the combat strength, sat in the front vehicle.
Looking ahead, Xi Xingxue repeatedly said to Song Jin:
"We must avoid the southeast route later. A couple of days ago, I discovered a large number of monsters gathered there. Our camp alone is not enough to wipe them out."
Song Jin nodded solemnly: "Okay, Lao Xi, thanks to you for reminding us, otherwise, we were planning to take that road."
When Xi Xingxue told them about this, Song Jin also sent someone to check it out and found that it was true. They were all very grateful to Xi Xingxue for her discovery.
Xi Xingxue finally felt relieved and leaned against the window to look at the scenery.
Of course, he was actually worried that things might change, so he wasn't completely at ease.
Fortunately, half a day passed, and the road ahead remained safe. Occasionally, a strange creature would appear, but everyone killed it.
It's lunchtime.
Ji Lin walked over with the food and smiled sweetly at Xi Xingxue: "Xiaoxue, this is something I made myself, have a taste."
"Okay." Xi Xingxue happily accepted the food and, of course, returned the favor by giving the food she had brought to Ji Lin.
He then looked at Ji Cangming beside him: "What about you? Want to trade with me?"
Ji Cangming looked at him and snorted coldly, "I'm not talking to you."
Xi Xingxue's eyes widened slightly: "What do you mean?"
Ji Cangming: "Just thinking about how you actually acted yesterday makes me... I just want to punch you."
As he spoke, his voice became so soft it was almost inaudible, clearly indicating his guilty conscience.
Xi Xingxue: "The thought of you pretending to be my brother and being intimate with me makes me want to punch you even more."
"You!" Ji Cangming was furious. "Fine, it was my fault, but you can't pretend you're already with Ji Lin..."
He even let him sit on his lap, and whenever he thought of that, Ji Cangming's face would turn as hot as if he had a fever, making him anxious.
Ji Lin was initially furious at Ji Cangming's actions, but when he learned that Xi Xingxue had turned the tables and pretended to have a very good relationship with him, his mood improved.
Could he interpret this as an implication?

The car drove smoothly on the road. The sky in the countryside was dusty, but better than at night. Although there was no sun, you could still see some light.
Xi Xingxue leaned back in her seat, drowsy, her head nodding slightly.
He almost fell to the side, but Jiang Jue caught his head with his hand.
"Thank you." Xi Xingxue smiled at him.
Jiang Jue hummed in agreement, then said in a cold tone, "You can lean on my shoulder to sleep."
"Oh..." Xi Xingxue asked, seemingly grateful but also somewhat casually, "Jiang Jue, why are you so good to me?"
Hearing this, Jiang Jue was clearly speechless, though his handsome, indifferent face remained expressionless.
After a long pause, he finally asked, "Where is it good?"
Xi Xingxue said, "You're willing to cook for me, take care of me, and care about my health. Isn't that good? Except for being too quiet, you're perfect in every way."
Jiang Jue paused for a moment: "If you want to hear me talk, I can say more."
Xi Xingxue suddenly turned her head to look at him, meeting his eyes: "So you're admitting you've been good to me?"
Jiang Jue looked back at him in silence, and after a long while, nodded: "Mm."
Xi Xingxue stared blankly at the numbers on her wrist.
Love collection value: 25%.
You should know that what he has learned from his research these past few days is that saving an ordinary person only increases one or two points, while saving someone like Ji Cangming can increase five points or more.
And indeed, Jiang Jue's value could rise even more.
"Why? Actually, we haven't known each other for very long."
Xi Xingxue really wanted to ask.
Although he knew these people were his former slice mission subjects, his own emotional fluctuations were weakened by the system, while their emotions and memories were also gone.
But now, it's as if it's been restored.
Jiang Jue was stunned for a moment, then honestly turned around and said, "I don't know, I just wanted to treat you like this."
He held it in for a long time before finally managing to utter a sentence.
"Perhaps you are special."
"What's so special about it?" Xi Xingxue asked persistently, just like a couple deeply in love.
Jiang Jue was about to reply to him.
Suddenly, a loud bang came from outside the car, the whole car shook violently, and then it stopped abruptly.
Xi Xingxue fell into Jiang Jue's arms.
Ji Lin and Ji Cangming, sitting in the front row of the car, bumped heads together.
Liu Yongkang, who was in the front row, cried out in pain as his head hit the car window, shattering the glass.
Li Xingzhu, who was driving, exclaimed in horror, "Captain, Captain, it seems like our wheels are stuck in a big ditch! Strange, the ground looked perfectly smooth just now!"
Song Jin, in the passenger seat, frowned slightly: "I'll go down and take a look! You guys stay in the car."
As she spoke, Song Jin prepared to open the car door.
Xi Xingxue quickly flipped herself off Jiang Jue and hurriedly said, "Wait, don't open the car door! Try to see if you can keep driving forward!"
Song Jin paused, her hand resting on the handlebars.
"Okay, I'll listen to Lao Xi."
Li Xingzhu: "Okay, I'll try to see if I can make it up."
Xi Xingxue's heart pounded, and she turned to look out the car window.
The sky was as gloomy as ever, like a blade hanging in the air, blocking out all the light, hovering precariously above their heads.
The surroundings were deathly silent. The withered trees and dry grass drooped listlessly with their yellowed leaves. Only from the other end of the road behind the vehicle could one faintly hear the sound of other vehicles chasing after it.
Li Xingzhu is stepping on the gas, hoping to get the tires out of the ditch.
Xi Xingxue was breathing rapidly, her superpowers ready to be used at any moment.
At the same time, everyone in the team sensed danger.
Song Jin had already turned on her wristband and was editing the text messages from the convoy behind her.
Sudden.
"Bang!" A pitch-black ghostly hand suddenly appeared from nowhere, smashed the car window, and reached in.
Jiang Jue reacted quickly, drawing his dagger and slashing.
The dark, ghostly hand was severed, unleashing a shrill, ear-piercing scream that nearly shattered everyone's eardrums.
Song Jin shouted, "There's a monster! Everyone, prepare for battle!"
Everyone quickly picked up their guns and started firing out the window.
Xi Xingxue did not expect that even though they avoided the strange species in the southeast, those strange species still managed to reach this area from the southeast!
The ghostly hand let out a wild scream, and its other hand began smashing other car windows, sending shards of glass flying and leaving small scratches on the faces of several people.
Fortunately, at that moment, Li Xingzhu successfully powered up the engine, and the car suddenly started moving, breaking out of the ditch!
"Everyone! Begin evacuation! There may be monsters lying in ambush ahead!"
Song Jin sent a message to the bracelet.
She had naturally considered the worst-case scenario.
Xi Xingxue clenched her fists. Could it be that Ji Lin and Ji Cangming were still going to get into trouble?
