Wanqi Siling
Chapter 406 Gaze (Part 2)
"Teacher Peer, why are you leading the class this time?"
Cheshire, watching Mingmei leave, quickly noticed someone approaching.
"Didn't Teacher Xinghai fall ill recently? I've been the acting homeroom teacher. I'll be the one to send the students off for this wilderness survival test."
The female teacher named Peer walked up to Cheshire, stopping in front of her with a gentle smile.
Her light purple eyes fell on Mingmei's departing figure in the distance. She turned her head, teasing with a smile, "Isn't it more troublesome to be your sister-in-law's homeroom teacher?"
"Not really, Mingmei is very well-behaved." Cheshire smiled, not elaborating.
"Is that so? I heard that Mei Qiu… values her younger sister the most. If she makes a mistake and you punish her, will Mei Qiu get angry?"
As if she hadn't heard the other woman's subtle provocation, Cheshire raised a hand to brush a stray hair from her ear and said, "We'll talk about it when Mingmei makes a mistake."
Cheshire's tone held a hint of pride as she looked at Peer, the corners of her lips slightly curved. "After all, Mingmei's performance has consistently been the best in the student game death records. And I don't have to worry about her studies either…"
Relying on the fact that other teachers didn't know Mingmei was playing an NPC in the game, the vast majority of the school considered Mingmei to be a super-achiever.
After all, fewer deaths in the highlight reel meant a higher success rate.
Even though Mu Chen had a reputation for being "fierce," when it came to gaming skills, his death highlights were still a few more than Mingmei's.
Those who didn't know the truth would say that Mingmei was the more skilled one.
"Yes, speaking of Mingmei, I think she will become even more dazzling than her brother one day."
As she spoke, several other teachers nearby also joined the conversation—about whether Mingmei would be more impressive than her brother in the future.
The topic was so heated that before the starship even took off, Mingmei sneezed several times in a row, making her wonder if she had caught a cold.
But Guigui's conclusion was that she was in perfect health!
A cold? Impossible!
"Is someone talking about me behind my back?" Mingmei muttered quietly as she wiped her nose, but Mu Chen said from the side, "Perhaps someone is missing you."
"Really?"
Mingmei's eyes widened, curious to hear what else Mu Chen would say. But then, without her knowing, Lu Gui had already sat down in the seat behind them and chimed in, "Yes, I miss classmate Mingmei~"
Mingmei: "…"
Mu Chen: "…"
"What a coincidence, you're here." The good atmosphere was interrupted. Mu Chen turned his head, greeting Lu Gui with a fake smile.
Because Lu Gui's temper hadn't been great lately, Mu Chen didn't even bother with the superficial brotherhood. Instead, he gave Mingmei a bright smile and said, "What a coincidence, Mingmei, you're here too!"
Hu Yue, who was sitting next to Lu Gui, was like a melon-eating *cha*, her background music filled with the sounds of crunching and munching!
Holy crap!
What kind of *shura* field was this?
Did Lu Gui have feelings for Mingmei?
She didn't even know what the "still" in her mind meant.
Even though she could still sneakily bring her light brain, the other little sisters on the starship hadn't brought theirs. Hu Yue was so anxious that she was scratching her head because she couldn't share the scene with her fellow enthusiasts!
Ah, this scene!
"Two men fighting over one woman"!
Exciting!
Soon, Hu Yue felt a warm, delicate touch between her hands.
It didn't feel like her own hand.
Hu Yue lowered her head, following the other hand that didn't belong to her lying between her own two hands. She looked up and met Mingmei's "iamwatchingyou for a long time.jpg" expression, and was instantly paralyzed.
"Sit properly. The starship will be departing soon." Mingmei silently withdrew her hand, also reminding the two gentlemen who were glaring at each other.
There were more than just them on this starship. Seeing the students from other departments coming up one after another, Mu Chen and Lu Gui finally quieted down.
Unanimously, the people sitting in the starship couldn't help but touch the disguised space buttons they were carrying.
This was their first time experiencing such a big event.
They were only freshmen, and suddenly being exposed to this kind of event, they felt more excitement than nervousness.
They wanted to witness a miracle, a miracle created by their own hands!
…
"Could this starship be rented from that rich guy?"
Not being on the same starship, everyone's mood was completely different at this moment.
At this time, Lu Xiaoyao was very surprised to see the one-person-one-seat configuration in front of her, with the seats resembling sleeping pods.
These kinds of seats were usually only found on large starships, and even then, only on those that crossed star regions and roamed the universe for more than a week.
"Who knows? But it is really nice to lie in this seat."
Bai Xiao had already laid down in the seat. The level of comfort made Bai Xiao wonder if His Majesty was worried about Yuan Fang suffering outside and specially arranged for such a starship.
"Indeed…"
It wasn't just Bai Xiao who thought so, even Yuan Fang had begun to suspect it.
No wonder when he mentioned this matter to his uncle during a video call a while ago, the other party didn't look worried and jumpy, but instead told him to study hard for the exam.
Could it be that his uncle had evolved to the point of abandoning the fairness and impartiality of an emperor for the sake of his beloved nephew?
"But I always feel that this seat is more comfortable than the cabin seats I've sat on in those starships before. I'm even afraid that if I lie down like this, I'll fall…"
Before she could finish saying "asleep," Lu Xiaoyao, lying in her seat, really felt an intense wave of drowsiness coming over her.
The others also gradually lay down in their seats and fell asleep without realizing it. Soon, a light gray screen rose up from the seats, directly separating them from the outside world.
They didn't know that their starship never actually took off…
Before the starship took off, Mingmei saw Cheshire and a group of teachers board the starship with them.
After they came on board, Mingmei clearly noticed the sudden tension in the surrounding students. Seeing this, Cheshire joked, "Oh, what's wrong? It's not even the exam yet, what's with getting nervous at the sight of teachers?"
"Yeah, the few naughty monkeys in our class know how to be honest at this time!"
Mingmei looked at the hot-bodied woman who wasn't wearing regular combat gear to wrap herself up tightly. Most of her skin was exposed, coated with a special watery protective material, like an invisible combat suit.
"Talking to you, what are you looking down for?"
The female teacher's scolding suddenly exploded over Mingmei's head, not sure if it had scared her own students, but Mingmei felt like her ears were about to explode.
Immediately afterward, Mingmei heard a familiar voice.
Turning her head again, Mingmei saw a row of muscular men in the back seats sitting upright and looking like cowards, the Zhen brothers included.
Mingmei: =。=
So this was the Zhen brothers' homeroom teacher—Ginny Yuriss.
The well-known man-eating flower.
