You are all bad women! Don't come over!-Chapter 330 - 321: Should Fall in Love with Xia Qingrou

"Is it really just the two of us in my room?" Shen Mochen suddenly asked again.

"At least when I'm awake, it is," Xiao Xingshuang said, peeling a longan, her head lowered.

Hearing Xiao Xingshuang say this, Shen Mochen felt somewhat relieved, but he still had some doubts, as he always felt something was off.

He remembered that he seemed to be embraced by a girl, who was fragrant and soft, and seemed to have a head of black long hair.

"Were you hugging me while sleeping?" Shen Mochen asked again.

"If you like it that way, I can do it next time," Xiao Xingshuang said expressionlessly.

Ah, forget it, it must have just been a muddled dream.

Right now, besides Shen Mochen and Xiao Xingshuang, there were only Xia Qingrou and Liu Chaoyan in the dormitory—the former goes without saying, and the latter was absolutely impossible to have climbed into his bed.

If there was a third person in his bed, it would be a horrifying supernatural event!

He had heard that someone from Team 0819 had died in battle... Shen Mochen suddenly remembered the Cross he had stored in the closet, the one that seemed to have been blessed by some Pope. Should he nail it on the wall?

"That should be enough," Xiao Xingshuang quickly said, her bowl now almost filled with longans.

"Yeah, that should be good," Shen Mochen smiled casually after a glance. "You're quite fast. You must have done a lot of housework at home, right?"

Xiao Xingshuang lightly shook the longans in the bowl, her eyelids drooping slightly, "Hmm."

The morning sun shone in through the door, illuminating the kitchen, but Xiao Xingshuang stood in the shadows, rinsing the longans and said nothing else.

"By the way, where did you attend high school?" Shen Mochen couldn't help but ask.

Truly, Xiao Xingshuang was the most mysterious person on the team. Perhaps because she had only transferred a few months ago, no one in the team knew much about her family background or her preferences, and she hardly socialized with others.

Thus, while the other team members were nice to her, they weren't close to her.

She seemed to have no interests, like an ascetic monk here in this world solely for penance.

Generally, Buques were paid ten to twenty times the average wages of a Yupi Country citizen. Although not incredibly rich, it was decidedly a high income.

So, Buques were generally quite well-off. While few splurged on luxury goods like Han Muxue, many, like Xia Qingrou, were careful with their savings. However, when it was time to spend, such a financial influx at age sixteen meant not holding back—typically evident in their abundant clothes and shoes purchases.

But Xiao Xingshuang was not like this. She always wore the prescribed combat suit issued by the Buque, not at all like a teenager who loved beautification. Even on the rare occasions she dressed in civilian clothes, they appeared to be cheap, with her jeans washed pale and noticeable wear on her mesh shoes.

Xiao Xingshuang's behavior reminded Shen Mochen of Cai Yuncui, but someone like Cai Yuncui, who transcended low-level tastes, was one in ten thousand. Moreover, Cai Yuncui didn't penny-pinch like this in daily life; her living environment was quite cozy, unlike Xiao Xingshuang's room which was void of any possessions.

Most importantly, Cai Yuncui donated her savings to her hometown and the children of the Jishi Association, but Xiao Xingshuang didn't seem that type of person.

She was more likely to use her body as a bargaining chip to seek decent treatment in another country than to possess such selflessness.

Yet, it was precisely because of this that Shen Mochen was extremely curious about Xiao Xingshuang. This person, who neither played games nor socialized, nor watched movies nor followed series, nor spent frivolously nor lived lavishly, seemed devoid of worldly desires. Why then was she so intent on going to Romany?

Even though the wages in Romany were considerably higher than Yupi's, she didn't look like someone greedy for money!

Faced with such a mysterious girl, Shen Mochen couldn't help but be curious and wanted to understand her.

However, upon hearing Shen Mochen's question, Xiao Xingshuang's usually dark eyes, like the night sky, showed a rare flicker of something indescribable.

She glanced up at Shen Mochen, then lowered her head again, pursed her lips, and after a long while, she quietly said, "I didn't finish middle school, let alone high school. I dropped out."

"Oh…" Shen Mochen was slightly stunned, and then he realized he might have said the wrong thing.

Not everyone could afford to go to high school, nor could everyone keep reading.

Not to mention someone with a background like Liu Chaoyan's, even families like Xia Qingrou's were one in ten thousand. Awakening a superpower was the fairest lottery in the world, meaning most of the Buques were ordinary people, even poor people.

Shen Mochen decided to make amends, so he sighed and said with a grave face, "Ah, I was lucky too. If it weren't for my sister awakening a superpower, I wouldn't have been able to afford school either…"

Xiao Xingshuang blandly interrupted Shen Mochen, "Are you talking about your little lover?"

Shen Mochen was taken aback. "What little lover?"

Xiao Xingshuang calmly said, "That General Yin."

Shen Mochen's mouth twitched, unable to think of a rebuttal, and he could only grimace and scratch his head, "The way you put it…"

"Xia Qingrou is upset because you slept with that General Yin, right?"

"Uh… that's part of the reason."

"She's your ex-girlfriend's sister, and you've always called her sister too. You guys didn't date before, right?"

"We didn't, mainly because we didn't…"

"If you neither dated nor slept together, what is it if not lovers?"

Shen Mochen opened his mouth, and suddenly found himself speechless. He had never dreamed that one day he would be refuted by such blunt truth, and Xiao Xingshuang had no intention of mocking him, she was merely stating the facts.

"I think there's no need for that kind of label…" Shen Mochen muttered, scratching his head.

"Then call it scandalous lovers?" Xiao Xingshuang tilted her head.

Shen Mochen quickly waved his hands, resigning himself and nodding vigorously, "Ah, yes, little lover, little lover she is, okay!"

Xiao Xingshuang nodded to herself, seemingly satisfied with his confirmation of the term "little lover." Then she asked, "So, who do you like more in your heart, your little lover or Xia Qingrou?"

Shen Mochen was taken aback again, and slowly turned his head to look at Xiao Xingshuang, his face showing a mixture of crying, laughter, and difficulty.

It was another question he couldn't answer.

"Why do you ask that?" Shen Mochen countered.

"I was just curious. I heard Xia Qingrou asked you the same question last night, and you didn't seem to respond," Xiao Xingshuang said honestly.

Didn't expect you to be so gossipy, none of your business!

And besides, me not responding was the most direct answer.

"You... it's hard to compare…" Shen Mochen laughed dryly, mumbling unclearly, "They're different."

"Your little lover is gone now, you should probably like Xia Qingrou more," Xiao Xingshuang said.

Shen Mochen's eyes blinked slowly. He didn't understand what Xiao Xingshuang meant by that.

Her tone was too neutral, leaving him unsure whether this "should" meant "likely" or "necessarily true by logic."
