Chapter 4 Interstellar Academy - Pretending to be cool 4



Yun Qing looked up at the podium and saw that the teaching assistant was none other than Murong Zhi.

A group of people lined up and left the teaching building, heading towards the mecha storage hall.

Murong Zhi slowed his pace and gradually walked alongside Yun Qing.

"What a coincidence, we meet again."

As he approached, the scent of sea salt pheromones wafted over, and Yun Qing subconsciously took a deep breath.

Murong Zhi noticed this movement and his gaze sharpened.

It's common knowledge that betas can't smell pheromones. So, what exactly is going on with Yun Qing?

Murong Zhi kept this question to himself.

Upon arriving at the mecha storage hall, Yun Qing felt right at home, touching and looking at everything, wishing she could take a hundred photos to commemorate the occasion.

Yunwei wasn't very interested in mechas, so she found a place to rest.

Left with no other choice, Yun Qingzhi hired Murong Zhi as her personal photographer.

She was full of energy and showed no signs of fatigue even after visiting all the mechs.

Murong Zhi was greatly surprised to see Yun Qing like this, never expecting that such a small body could contain such great energy.

"You really like mecha that much?"

"Yes." Hearing this question, Yun Qing turned to look at him.

"My dream is to own my own mech."

"That's simple. As long as you master the mecha, you can customize one in the school's laboratory."

Hearing Murong Zhi speak so lightly, Yun Qing couldn't help but feel a sense of "why don't they eat meat porridge?" and secretly rolled her eyes in her heart.

"It's not that easy. Do you know how much a mecha costs? I couldn't afford one even if I sold myself."

"Is that so?" Murong Zhi asked thoughtfully.

...

After that, Yunqing's life gradually returned to normal.

When there are classes, I go to class; when I have free time, I visit and learn from the mecha club.

Yunwei did not join the mecha club. After careful consideration, she still felt that she was more interested in combat.

After joining the fighting club, she unexpectedly became good friends with Long Yanfei.

However, she resolutely refused Long Yanfei's roundabout attempt to obtain Yun Qing's computer and expressed strong condemnation.

"You actually dared to make a move on my sister? I really misjudged you."

"What's wrong? As the saying goes, a beautiful lady is the object of a gentleman's affections. Yunqing is so pretty, isn't it normal for me to like her?"

"Don't give me that nonsense. Anyway, if you keep trying to make a move on her, we're no longer friends."

Long Yanfei was not the kind of person who would forget his friends for the sake of a pretty face; after all, he and Yun Qing hadn't even exchanged a single word yet.

Seeing how much Yunwei valued this younger sister, he gave up pursuing Yunqing.

What if he gets together with Yunwei and then they break up? How will he face Yunwei then?

Yun Qing, engrossed in learning how to operate the mecha, was unaware that her sister had nipped a unwanted peach blossom in the bud for her.

However, as she gradually distinguished herself in the mecha club, many people became jealous of her.

The capital planet hosts an annual mecha competition, open to students from all planets.

Members of the Interstellar Academy Mech Club can participate in competitions using mechs sponsored by the Stardust Group.

If a team achieves good results in the competition, the participating mech will be given as a reward to the team members.

Furthermore, if a student wins a trophy, Xingmu Group will sponsor a large sum of money, allowing the winning student to choose their favorite design and customize a unique mecha.

The club only has five spots for the competition each year. The club president, Murong Zhi, takes one spot, and the remaining spots are fiercely contested.

At this time, a fledgling beta performed exceptionally well in club activities and gained the appreciation of the club president.

Many of the older members who joined the club early on have never participated in a competition. How can they be content with that?

Of course, what they found most unbearable was that Yun Qing was just a beta.

They are neither weak omegas who need protection, nor alphas born with leadership qualities; they are just the most ordinary type of interstellar citizens.

How could the elite talents of the mecha company accept this?

Thus, they began a secret plot concerning Yun Qing.

"This isn't a good idea. What if we get caught...?"

"What's wrong with it? Could it be that you've also been bewitched by that face?"

"How is that possible!" The person on the other side felt like they'd been hit where it hurt.

"I just think your plan is not very feasible. Who can believe that Yun Qing would take such a huge risk for such a person?"

"I don't care whether they believe it or not. Anyway, when the time comes, there will be witnesses and physical evidence, and she will have no way to defend herself."

...

A few days later, Yun Qing finished her club activities and packed her things to return to her student dormitory.

Murong Zhi suddenly walked to her side and naturally took her bag in his hand.

Let's go back together.

"Oh, okay." Yun Qing was a little puzzled and asked, "Aren't you busy today?"

The mecha competition is next month, and Murong Zhi has been very busy lately, as he has to evaluate and assess every member of the club.

So, they haven't gone back together in a long time.

Murong Zhi nodded, but his expression was somewhat unnatural.

Actually, he wasn't as busy as Yun Qing thought.

There are just some things he hasn't figured out yet.

He initially approached Yun Qing out of mere curiosity.

However, as the two spent more time together, his mindset seemed to gradually change.

Even his father started asking him: "Have you had anything happy happen to you lately? You seem much more energetic."

Previously, Murong Zhi was somewhat detached from the world. Apart from Long Yanfei, he had no friends and was unwilling to have much interaction with others.

However, Yun Qing was different; in his world, she was like a firefly.

Although the light it emitted wasn't very bright, it still made him unconsciously chase after it.

This feeling was strange; Murong Zhi didn't dislike it, but he felt uneasy.

Because he suddenly realized that Yun Qing had made him unlike himself.

Is this change good or bad? What consequences will it have? No one can predict.

Therefore, without being prepared to bear all the consequences, Murong Zhi chose to temporarily distance himself.

However, he couldn't stand not being in close contact with Yun Qing for even a week.

That deep-seated longing tormented him to the point of madness.

Yun Qing and Murong Zhi walked side by side, and the scent of his pheromones grew stronger and stronger.

At first, she was very happy, after all, she hadn't smelled this scent in a long time.

But as time went on, she belatedly realized that something was wrong.

Her body began to feel hot; the inhibitor she had just taken that morning seemed to have lost its effect. A faint scent of peach blossoms wafted through the air.

Lost in his thoughts, Murong Zhi suddenly smelled a sweet fragrance that made him feel as if he were in a paradise, forgetting all his troubles.

He was completely mesmerized, his body screaming wildly, trying to find the source of the scent.

The next moment, Yun Qing's faint groan came from beside his ear, bringing him back to his senses.

"Murong Zhi~"
