Chapter 1162: Sly as a Fox
Ji You carefully examined the terms and raised objections to some unreasonable or vague areas where responsibilities were unclear. Liu Fufeng immediately made modifications in front of everyone, ensuring there was nothing amiss afterwards. Ji You said, "This agreement starts from the time of signing and ends after three months. Not a minute or second more, understand?"
Liu Fufeng’s mouth twitched slightly upon hearing this, but he nodded and said, "Alright."
Ji You frowned and signed the contract.
Liu Fufeng initially planned to reluctantly provide a quick escape route for the team himself, but...
Unexpectedly gained the three months of protection confirmation from Ji You’s signature, which was a delightful surprise.
Then—
Liu Fufeng hadn’t even had time to be pleased when he saw Ji You pull out a stack of contracts in front of everyone.
Liu Fufeng: "..."
Chu Jiaojiao and others: "???"
Ji You cheerfully raised the stack of contracts, saying: "Come on, everyone, come over and sign."
Chu Jiaojiao was the first to come over, asking curiously: "Ji You, what’s this all about?"
As she spoke, she leaned in, staring at the contract.
A look—
Chu Jiaojiao’s mouth twitched, saying: "You want to sign a three-month contract with us to protect you?"
Ji You looked naturally and said, "Yeah, exactly what you’re thinking."
"..." Chu Jiaojiao opened her mouth and said: "So... Liu Fufeng has you protect him for three months, and you have us protect you for three months..."
Ji You rolled her eyes and asked, "Yes. Is there a problem?"
Chu Jiaojiao shook her head: "No... no problem."
Just—
Ji You is really the world’s number one schemer.
The spaceship accidentally entered the Eighth Star System, time was tight, and it needed to rush to the First Star System. This was everyone present’s issue that needed to be solved together, not only Ji You’s responsibility.
Liu Fufeng verbally disdain everyone’s weakness, but Chu Jiaojiao and others speculated he didn’t want to involve or be protected by them, instead asking only Ji You, while everyone like Chu Jiaojiao, Shen Changqing, were all thinking about solving this issue.
Letting Ji You alone bear the brunt would absolutely not do.
...
As everyone was contemplating and hadn’t found a solution yet, Ji You already figured it out. She casually changed a method and solved the problem everyone struggled with for ages.
Ji You signing the agreement to protect Liu Fufeng, everyone signing agreements to protect Ji You... In these three months, everyone had to stick together closely.
Exactly.
It’s that simple.
So—
Understandably, Chu Jiaojiao, Shen Changqing... eight people, without Ji You pressuring, immediately came over. Yue Qiguang grabbed a contract directly and took a pen to sign, saying, "Where does this fool sign?"
Ji You pointed at the signing page, saying: "We’re all fellows here, look through the agreement thoroughly before signing, I must declare once signed, no changes allowed."
Before finishing speaking, everyone who intended to sign suddenly paused, then widened their eyes, reviewing the agreement from Ji You carefully, fearing any hidden traps...
After reading, they found no traps, felt relieved, and then Sheng Qingyan pursed her lips, looked strangely at Ji You, and said: "Poor dead, how do you have so many agreements?"
Sheng Qingyan’s question made everyone speechless: Indeed, these piles of contracts, where did they come from?
Liu Fufeng’s contract was prepared beforehand, but what about Ji You’s?
Were they also prepared beforehand?
Facing everyone’s questions, Ji You straightened her face, cleared her throat, and said: "What’s weird about these questions? What’s the use of asking so much? Does asking mean you get an extra piece of meat?"
Sheng Qingyan looked suspiciously: "People heard your Space Button stored a bunch of blank contracts, ready to sign anytime, are these agreements prepared together with those contracts?"
"Ahem..."
"Nonsense!" Ji You refused to acknowledge this, saying sternly: "Focus on serious matters, stop bothering with trivial details, the key now is how we quickly proceed to the First Star System."
While speaking, Ji You stared at Liu Fufeng, saying: "Where’s your shortcut? The flight path map? We need to proceed there now."
A hint of hesitation flashed across Liu Fufeng’s delicate skin, then he seemed to make a decision, saying: "It’s in my estate, about 30 minutes of flight time from here."
Ji You asked upon hearing: "What’s the shortcut you mentioned?"
She had to understand, if this shortcut wasn’t suitable, alternative solutions were needed immediately.
Liu Fufeng didn’t hide anything, he straightforwardly said: "My health has been poor since young, needing a quiet, safe, and beautiful environment for recuperation, my estate there is an excellent retreat for this. The Royal Family specially built a small Jump Point there for my convenience."
Everyone: "!!!"
Jump Point!
Personal Jump Point! Just hearing the name shocked and envied everyone, and the next second, Liu Fufeng shyly said: "It was a privilege I enjoyed as the Empire’s first heir, but due to an accident, I’ve lost the right to inherit the Empire, and the benefits I’ve enjoyed decreased significantly. Now it’s already dilapidated, I’m unsure if this Jump Point completely exists."
Shen Changqing thought a moment, saying: "Once established successfully, a Jump Point generally wouldn’t have issues unless artificially sabotaged. We can try."
Ji You decided, saying: "Let’s go!"
Then.
The spaceship immediately headed towards Liu Fufeng’s estate in a swift and rapid motion, reaching the destination quickly—
Principal Hong and Dr. Luo sat opposite each other, both with serious expressions. Dr. Luo thought for a moment and said: "Principal, aren’t you going to intervene, leaving these kids to their own decisions?"
Principal Hong waved his hand, saying: "Letting them out is to train their practical reaction and adaptability, of course, they must make decisions themselves."
Dr. Luo saw Principal Hong truly seemed in no hurry, although uncertain, decided to trust Principal Hong’s judgment, so Dr. Luo smiled too, saying: "Let’s see how much growth these children achieve."
...
At this moment, the spaceship was already stationed above a planet’s starry sky. From the monitor, the planet’s environment is half water, half land, with an extremely quiet and beautiful view.
