After returning to the room, Chu Xiangyun saw the furry back at a glance. Jiu Jiu was sitting on the window sill looking out. He looked very lonely alone.

It seemed to be thinking about something, even the sound of her opening the door did not attract its half attention.

Chu Xiangyun walked up to Jiujiu and asked, "I'm going to the cafeteria to have dinner with Zhuqing. Jiujiu, do you want to go with me?"

Star Flying Squirrel, whose name was called by her, just shook his head and still didn't say a word.

"...Do you want me to bring you something?"

"No need, I've eaten." Jiujiu finally turned his head to look at her, "Xiaoyun, you are a bit verbose today."

"Okay..." Chu Xiangyun ignored its joke, but unexpectedly reached out and touched its body, feeling the temperature in his hands.

"There doesn't seem to be a fever."

Jiujiu twisted his body and shook her away unhappily, "Of course I'm fine! I'm just thinking about life!"

If it is Jiujiu, it should be called Shusheng, right?

However, Chu Xiangyun did not say this out loud. After all, Jiujiu would definitely retort that it should be regarded as a "bird life".

"I'm leaving."

Looking at Chu Xiangyun's back as he turned away, he sighed and looked out the window again, wondering what he was thinking.

……

There is nothing famous about the canteen of Lingxiao Mansion. It is not extremely delicious and does not have any dark dishes. However, for Chu Xiangyun who does not pay much attention to food, it is the same wherever he eats.

During dinner, the two chatted for a while about their life experiences in the first week after entering school. Chu Xiangyun thought this was the end, but when he got up, he was stopped by his friend across from him.

However, after Shi Zhuqing finished calling her name, he still didn't finish the sentence. Chu Xiangyun sat back and looked at her who was about to stop talking.

"What's wrong?"

"Well..." Shi Zhuqing struggled with himself for a long time, and finally decided to ask the question directly.

"Xiangyun, have you ever thought about joining the school team?"

"..."

Why do everyone like to ask this question today?

Although it was a cliché for Chu Xiangyun, she still answered.

"I've thought about it."

Shi Zhuqing opened her eyes in surprise, "Then..."

"Haven't you ever thought about it, Zhuqing?" Chu Xiangyun tilted his head, "But I know you won't join at this time."

"You will not make a rash decision before you are completely familiar with life in Lingxiao Mansion." She completely said what Shi Zhuqing was thinking.

"Me too."

Chu Xiangyun looked at the person opposite and nodded as if in affirmation.

"I still have a lot to do..." Chu Xiangyun didn't say the rest of the words, but she still counted them in her mind with her fingers.

She hasn't fully mastered the scale yet, and the wooden dummy in the training hall has only reached the first stage. What's more, with the Rubik's Cube given to her by Teacher Ren, she can only restore the two simplest attributes at most, and her speed is still slow.

Very slow.

Well, it seems that I still have a great influence on Xiang Yun.

Shi Zhuqing was a little helpless. Without Shi Shu's words, she would never have asked this question at this time. Because they all have their own pace and are walking firmly in that direction.

But what I feel now is as if I was suddenly told by a doctor that I was seriously ill and I don’t know how much life I have left, which makes me feel inexplicably restless.

"Zhuqing, do you want to join the school team?" Chu Xiangyun thought of the conversation with Zhou Mei, "I will support you."

This should be a sign of support, right?

"..." What did you learn when I didn't know it?

Shi Zhuqing glared at her angrily, but the clouds in her heart somehow cleared away, and she decided to tell the truth to Xiang Yun.

"Do you remember Senior Sister Shishu?"

Chu Xiangyun nodded, "She asked me for help."

As if remembering her experience that day, the corners of her mouth raised slightly, and her words were filled with joy.

"Simulation competition is very fun."

Shi Zhuqing followed her words and recalled what she saw that day. Indeed, although it was not obvious from the outside, Chu Xiangyun actually had her own bad taste. She actually enjoyed playing the villain.

.

No wonder she agreed to Shi Shu’s invitation that day.

Thinking of this, Diazhu Qing's face softened, "Just have fun."

"By the way." Chu Xiangyun thought of something, shook the bracelet on his wrist, and brought up an interface, "Senior Sister Shi Shu also transferred money to me. It seems to be based on the standard salary of actors on the market.

."

Shi Zhuqing leaned over to look at the number, and couldn't help but rub her eyes to help herself see more clearly.

Senior sister, you are too generous.

She sat back in her seat in a daze, and it took a long time for her to come back to her senses.

"So what happened to Senior Sister Shi Shu?" Chu Xiangyun asked aloud.

Shi Zhuqing took a deep breath, organized her words, paused for a moment and then said: "She told me that Nanhe Kingdom was captured by the demons."

"..." After hearing her words, Chu Xiangyun was stunned on the spot and didn't reply for a long time, obviously digesting the information.

"Senior sister said... the war is getting closer and closer to us." Shi Zhuqing finished all the explosive information in one breath, "Our time... may be running out."

She finally breathed a sigh of relief after sharing such big news. Shi Zhuqing calmed down and carefully observed the reaction of the person opposite.

Chu Xiangyun pursed her lips, as if she understood why Jiujiu was so melancholy today. Her mind was in chaos, and she couldn't help but touch her feather pendant, and the cold touch gradually calmed her down.

"So what does this have to do with the school team?"

"If we join the school team, we should be able to get more opportunities, and it will also be helpful for our strength." Of course, the price is far beyond the hard work of ordinary people.

"Then join."

After listening to Shi Zhuqing's explanation, Chu Xiangyun said this without hesitation.

Shi Zhuqing was slightly startled. She opened her mouth to speak but didn't know what to say. It took a long time for her to reveal a helpless smile.

Well, this answer...is indeed your style.

Even so, she still asked: "Isn't it too forced?"

Chu Xiangyun shook his head. In fact, it was only a matter of time before he joined the school team. Senior Sister Shi Shu's words just brought it forward.

"You will stay with me anyway, right?"

"...Well, does this need to be said?" Shi Zhuqing stood up, "But this year's school team recruitment has ended, what we have to do is prepare for next year."

"Speaking of which, have you finished your homework?"

"..." Naturally, the courses at Lingxiao Mansion are not all practical, writing assignments are also essential. However, Chu Xiangyun has always adhered to the principle of only doing things that interest him, so...

Although she tried her best to hide her guilt, Shi Zhuqing still saw it at a glance. The latter raised his bracelet and looked at the time, then tapped the screen.

"See you in the library in an hour."
