Chapter 132: 132 good students, do homework on time

Crunch——

Crunch——

Crunch——

As Ji You devoured her meat with big bites, Shen Changqing across her seemed to enjoy his meal as well, but for some reason, he exuded a faint sense of melancholy all over him. From time to time, he would lift his head, gaze at Ji You, with a look that said, ’I have something to say, but I can’t bring myself to say it.’

However——

Until the meal was over, when Ji You picked up her plate, planning to take it to the recycle, Shen Changqing still hadn’t spoken up.

As Ji You stood up, Shen Changqing immediately rose too, his dark eyes staring straight at Ji You. His tall and slender figure, which at this moment, somehow seemed slightly fragile and lonely, invisibly conveyed a feeling of desolation.

Ji You: "..."

All this drama for a bit of meat?

Is this Oscar-winning level acting?

And then?

Hoping to make me feel sorry for you, to agree to your request?

Hmm~

I certainly won’t agree.

Senior Shi Ya dotes on me because she’s good-hearted and has even better taste, that’s my capital, but I can’t become complacent and spoil her affection for me. Whether I give her meat or not totally depends on whether Senior Shi Ya feels like it, I definitely won’t treat it as a resource to exchange for something else.

Bottom line.

Still needs to be maintained, right?

Thus, Ji You looked at Shen Changqing, and mercilessly refused: "Classmate Shen Changqing, please understand, I won’t agree to your request."

Shen Changqing was silent for a moment, then nodded: "Okay."

Having made her stance clear, Ji You could no longer bear to see Shen Changqing’s pitiful look of sadness, she hurriedly took her plate to the recycle, and rushed to the medical office.

Coincidentally, the on-duty doctor in the medical office was still Dr. Luo.

Seeing Ji You come in, Dr. Luo joked: "Yo, quite a serious injury today, huh?"

Ji You chuckled, "Dr. Luo, please treat me."

Dr. Luo raised his hand, pointing at the repair cabin, "Alright, lie down over there."

It was the same repair cabin as yesterday. Just as Ji You was about to lie down, her brain clicked, and, suddenly stopping her feet, she turned her head, staring at Dr. Luo with her dark eyes, "Dr. Luo, can you treat my face first?"

Dr. Luo curled his lips, smiling: "Yo~ quite alert, aren’t we?"

Ji You scratched her head: "Hehe, if I don’t get my face treated, I’m afraid my classmates are going to accuse me of deliberately damaging their mental and physical health."

Dr. Luo looked seriously at her pig face, and quite approvingly responded: "Indeed, it is an eyesore, harming the onlookers’ mental and physical health. By the way, what did you originally look like?"

Ji You: "..."

Dr. Luo truly lived up to his name as a surgeon, his jab was indeed practiced.

It took about half an hour, but Ji You’s face and her injured arms and legs were all repaired. Dr. Luo was also very considerate, applying a layer of medicinal fluid to Ji You with repairing and improving effects on muscles, bones, and meridians...

Once her whole body was treated, Ji You energetically hopped around a few times, feeling refreshed, and realized she could easily run around the dormitory completely fine.

Dr. Luo, staring at Ji You’s perfectly intact face, sighed deeply: "Still, the pig face from before was more pleasing to the eye, had more character."

Ji You: "..."

Speechless for a few seconds, Ji You said: "That kind of character, please throw it into space for me, the more the better, throw it all away."

"Disturbing the doctor after hours warrants reprimand," Dr. Luo pointed to the door, "Hurry on, I need to get off work."

Ji You bowed respectfully, sincerely thanking, "Thank you, Teacher Luo, for your hard work."

What answered Ji You was a loud slamming of the door.

Ji You: "..."

She touched her nose, found an automated floating car and quickly returned to the dormitory.

Afterward, Ji You logged onto the Star Network and found Professor Ye Hong’s lecture video from that day, spending 1 point to download it. The entire class—from explanation to in-class assignments, including question and answer sessions—was very comprehensive in this video.

The only downside was that the materials required for the in-class assignments had to be paid for by the students themselves.

On this matter, Ji You had already thought of a solution; she had submitted a request to the Material Department to purchase the materials and it was accepted. From now on, a robot assistant would deliver the materials needed for each day’s classes to Ji You’s dormitory.

After watching the video, Ji You began to do the homework independently, following the video’s instructions.

This term’s materials included Iron Pear Wood and a type of ore, along with teeth from several Star Beasts...

Ji You was very familiar with Iron Pear Wood; she had previously gone to collect it daily with Ryan, Grandma Jenny, and others, even encountering the terrifying Banded Butterfly attack. Speaking of which, several days had passed, but there was still no reply from Ryan.

Had he not received it?

Or perhaps not seen it yet?

Or—

Was it inconvenient for him to reply?

But she believed that Ryan would definitely not intentionally ignore her message, so—Ji You was even more worried that something might have happened to Ryan, that he might be in danger...

She hoped not.

Putting her worries aside, after Ji You completed her homework, she packed it and sent it to Professor Ye Hong’s lab.

Professor Ye Hong would randomly check the daily class homework, and with so many students, it was impossible for him to review all of them during the class. Therefore, after finishing their homework, he requested all students to mail their work to his lab, where he would personally check each one and give feedback.

The grading of class homework also affected the students’ end-of-term academic points, so no one dared to slack off.

Although she had voluntarily given up the right to attend classes in person, in front of everyone, it was Xiao You’s wish! Ji You didn’t dare to delay for a moment, so no matter how tired, she had to finish her studies, complete the homework, and then go on to do other things.

Meanwhile—

In the laboratory of the old professor, Ye Hong.

Professor Ye Hong was a very rigorous and earnest educator. He treated himself, his students, and his scholarly work with great seriousness and never cut corners. Hence, despite the large number of students, he was determined to personally review each student’s homework the same day.

Of course—

The review was assisted by machines, so it was highly efficient.

Night fell, and the artificial satellites above Lanyue Star shone their soft light through the transparent alloy windows, casting a gentle glow on Professor Ye Hong as he carefully reviewed the work, when suddenly the lab’s door security indicated a new assignment had been submitted.

Professor Ye Hong frowned, "Which student dares to submit their homework so late?"

He glanced at the time; it was already nine o’clock in the evening.

This was a full three hours late.

Professor Ye Hong initially wanted to refuse it, but after thinking for a moment, he said, "Bring it in."

The Little Robot placed the meticulously wrapped homework on the table in Professor Ye Hong’s lab.

Professor Ye Hong didn’t open it immediately but continued with the established pace, reviewing the other students’ homework one by one. Only after all the student’s homework had been checked and graded did Professor Ye Hong’s eyes finally turn to the last one, and he reached out toward the quietly sitting assignment.

The moment he saw the student’s name, Professor Ye Hong’s expression changed slightly.
