Chapter 115: Chapter 114 The Best Way to Enhance a Relationship

```

"Tsk tsk, cousin, your judgment of people really sucks. You devoted yourself entirely to him for three years, and he, like a peacock, flirted everywhere he went. In the end, he dumped you without you gaining anything. You might as well have chosen Prince Yuting— at least his family has strict discipline and he has good character, right?"

"Oh, right, Prince Yuting is also generous, willing to give money to spend. If I went broke, he definitely wouldn’t just watch and do nothing."

Qu Tong spoke with levity, yet her words salted Qu Wanwan’s wounds with every syllable.

Although Qu Wanwan was filled with resentment, she had to admit Qu Tong had a point. If it weren’t for that sliver of rationality, she would have almost stormed to the palace and begged the Empress Dowager to call off the marriage.

Thinking that she had personally orchestrated this marriage deal, Qu Wanwan felt incredibly frustrated inside.

"Don’t get smug," Qu Wanwan glared at Qu Tong with hatred before turning around to leave.

Completely forgetting the original reason she had sought out Qu Tong.

After Qu Wanwan had left, Qu Tong hugged her textbook and giggled to herself.

Wow! She really wasn’t a nice person~

"Miss Qu Tong, where did you hear that I had strict family discipline?"

A cold voice came from behind her, freezing Qu Tong’s laughter on her face.

She turned around in shock, meeting a pair of sharp phoenix-shaped eyes that held a faint trace of amusement.

"Uh... the Empress mentioned it," Qu Tong stuttered out an answer.

A flicker of guilt crossed her face momentarily.

Her mind raced, trying to recall if she had said anything inappropriate just now.

She shouldn’t have, right.

All she said was positive.

"Mm," Si Yuting uttered a monosyllabic grunt from his throat.

Qu Tong quickly rekindled her harmless smile, skirting past the awkward moment:

"Did Your Highness come to see me?"

Si Yuting’s lips curled ambiguously and he followed her lead, "Hmm, I came to ask if you wanted a ride back."

"No, thanks. I’ll go to the Star Beast Zone with the school’s spaceship tomorrow. It’s less of a hassle that way."

"Alright."

Having gotten her answer, Si Yuting didn’t linger and turned to leave.

Qu Tong watched Si Yuting’s retreating figure, shook her head, and sighed lightly.

At night, Qu Tong curled up on the sofa, reviewing some basic information about Planet 955 that had been just distributed for the upcoming military tournament.

Someone knocked on the door.

From the monitoring system on her light computer, Qu Tong saw Wen You waving at her.

She got up to open the door, only to see Wen You leaning casually against the door frame.

Wen You’s beauty was conspicuous. If Qu Tong had to describe it with one word, she would choose "cool."

Tall in stature, dressed in a crisp black military uniform, with dark blue hair tied up high, exposing a smooth forehead— truly the epitome of a cool older sister.

But, once you got to know Wen You, you’d realize the contrast was quite severe.

Qu Tong half-opened the door, blocking the entrance: "What are you doing here so late?"

"I came to sleep with you, afraid Tong Tong you might be scared sleeping alone," Wen You said, forthright and frank.

Qu Tong’s mouth twitched: "Thanks, but no need."

After saying that, she was ready to close the door.

"Fine, I have no place to stay, so I’m seeking refuge with you," Wen You held up the door, blinking her eyes trying to appear as pitiable as possible.

"Didn’t your instructor assign dormitories?"

Qu Tong didn’t continue to block the door but released the doorknob and walked back into the house.

"Yeah, but I don’t feel like listening to Cheng Gousheng blabber about nonsense."

Wen You entered the house, shut the door, and sat down on the sofa as if she were right at home.

Qu Tong guessed it was probably about the briefing happening before tomorrow morning’s departure.

"Your name is Wen Dazhuang, his name is Cheng Gousheng, you two seem friendly. Where did these nicknames come from?"

Qu Tong brought out cherry tomatoes and strawberries to put on the table while she herself opened a lime-flavored lollipop.

"Ha! We are quite close. Cheng Gousheng has always been a rowdy kid. We fought a lot growing up. Maybe because I was a bit fatter and taller than him back then, he couldn’t beat me, so he ended up cursing and nicknaming me instead."

```

Wen You was eating fruit and talking, occasionally letting out a laugh or two.

"As for turning into a leftover dog, well, it all started with the nutrient solution his family dog wouldn’t even touch..."

After listening to Wen You’s account, Qu Tong couldn’t help but laugh, "His poor dog really suffers~"

One can only say that humans have different tastes, and dogs are no different.

Those who like cilantro want to plant it all over the world, while those who hate it wish they could kill anyone who plants cilantro, kill them all.

When it was time for bed, Wen You had permission to sleep on the couch.

In the middle of the night, Qu Tong felt someone climb onto the bed and immediately kicked them out, while at the same time her ankle was gripped.

Qu Tong sat on the ground, her face somewhat dark.

The warm light turned on, casting a glow on Wen You’s usually aloof but now innocently brimming face.

"Tong Tong, why are you so vigilant?"

"What are you doing?"

Qu Tong was a bit grumpy when she woke up, especially since it was the middle of the night.

Wen You: "I read online that the best way to bond is just to sleep together."

Qu Tong: "..."

"Get lost, my mom won’t let me play with idiots."

Qu Tong climbed off the ground with disgust, as if even sitting on the same floor with Wen You would be contagious.

"Tong Tong, you’re really breaking my heart with the way you talk," said Wen You, also getting up and moving next to Qu Tong, her voice tight with emotion.

Qu Tong shuddered with goosebumps all over her body and gave Wen You a glare, "Can’t you speak properly?"

"I can, unless you let me sleep with you."

Qu Tong looked at Wen You.

She couldn’t be crazy, could she?

"We’re all good sisters, what’s wrong with sleeping in the same bed?"

With that, Wen You leaned back and rolled gracefully onto the bed.

Qu Tong: "..."

She had never seen Wen You so proactively enthusiastic.

It felt weird.

Maybe she didn’t dislike Wen You’s personality, or perhaps it was because of Wen You’s face.

Qu Tong didn’t kick her out again but climbed back into bed, lying on the outside.

Luckily, her bed was newly changed and big enough.

After Wen You got into bed, she didn’t crowd her but chatted with her for a while.

Otherwise, according to her usual habits, they would have ended up fighting on the bed.

The next day, Wen You left early, and Qu Tong, as usual, slept until the last minute before getting up to wash up.

As soon as she opened the door, she saw Rong Yueqing continually checking her light computer in the hallway.

"Morning," greeted Qu Tong.

"Good morning, Prince Consort Sister," replied Rong Yueqing with a soft and gentle gaze.

The two of them headed to the gathering point to meet up with everyone else.

As they arrived at the field, they heard Fei Wenxing arguing with someone else.

He really is trying so hard to fight for our team’s honor.

"You guys must have applied lubricant to your mouths, the way you spew nonsense. If you’re so bored, why don’t you go lick the toilets clean... Tong Sister, Princess Yueqing, you’re here."

Fei Wenxing immediately switched modes upon seeing them, smiling radiantly.

"Sorry to keep you waiting," Rong Yueqing said, her voice and smile both gentle.

"That’s alright; we had to wait anyway, the speech hasn’t started yet," Fei Wenxing said grandly, waving his hand.

Qu Tong turned to look at the person who had just been arguing with Fei Wenxing, none other than Blue Planet’s lackey Wen Zong and Chen Erhu, with a few other boys she didn’t recognize by their sides—judging from their builds, they should be from the Mecha Single Soldier Department.

She didn’t see Lan Xingye; presumably, Lan Xingye thought they were too weak and went to form another team.
