You are all bad women! Don't come over!

Xiao Xingshuang didn't answer, she silently followed behind Han Muxue.

She didn't know the other person's purpose for coming this time. Was it just a sudden urge to visit her room?

But she felt that the other person seemed to be in a good mood today.

"You should be close to retirement, right?" Han Muxue took a few glances, found the monotonous room really boring, and then turned her head to strike up a conversation with Xiao Xingshuang.

Xiao Xingshuang uttered a "hm."

Han Muxue asked again, "I heard it from the captain. Is it about half a month left?"

Xiao Xingshuang nodded, "Less than half a month."

Han Muxue said in a soft voice, "Your birthday is coming up, right? The captain also said that he wants to organize a birthday party for you, which will also be your farewell party."

Xiao Xingshuang was silent, without any response to her farewell party.

Farewell parties were common in Buque. Most of the Buque would serve after their 16th birthday and retire after their 18th birthday. To them, the 18th birthday party was also the farewell party for retirement. After that, they would formally proceed with the retirement process.

Han Muxue frowned slightly at Xiao Xingshuang's silence, but she was used to her taciturn nature and knew she had always been this way, so she didn't make a scene.

"Do you really plan to retire?" Han Muxue glanced at the Roman books on the table and asked again.

"Yes," Xiao Xingshuang nodded.

Han Muxue sighed softly, "Actually, I'm a bit reluctant to let you go. Are you really going to Roman afterward? Have you found someone?"

Xiao Xingshuang didn't avoid the subject, "The person has already been found; I'll go there directly after I retire."

"Ah, that's pretty good..." Han Muxue pursed her lips, "Hey, have you checked out that person's background? I've heard there are many scammers in this area. Did he ask you for a lot of money?"

"He's not a scammer. He's trustworthy," Xiao Xingshuang shook her head.

"I see..." Han Muxue's eyelids drooped as she mused, "Actually, Roman is quite nice. The salary there is much higher than here, so it doesn't matter where you work."

"Mhm," Xiao Xingshuang nodded.

Han Muxue placed her hands on her knees and gently touched them. She felt a bit awkward because she and Xiao Xingshuang weren't actually very close.

Xiao Xingshuang had transferred from another team and joined Team 0819 later than her, she was also very introverted and aloof, keeping to herself and not talking much.

In the 0819, which was all girls, each being a national beauty, her presence was extremely faint.

Now, trying to suddenly strike up a conversation with her, felt a little awkward.

"After you go there, will you become a citizen of Roman?" Han Muxue continued to look for topics.

"That's probably the case, you have to become a citizen to be accepted into their Buque," Xiao Xingshuang said.

"Ah, that's also nice..." Han Muxue sighed, "Do your family members support your decision?"

"Yes."

"And your boyfriend? Does he support you too?"

Xiao Xingshuang tilted her head slightly, "I don't have a boyfriend."

Han Muxue said, "Is that so... it doesn't matter. You are so pretty, once you go to Roman, you can pick any handsome guy you want."

"Mhm."

"Oh, how many times have you been in a relationship before?" Han Muxue scratched her head and subtly averted her gaze.

Xiao Xingshuang shook her head, "I've never been in a relationship."

Han Muxue immediately praised her, "What? You've never been in love? It doesn't show. You're quite disciplined! It's rare to see a beautiful girl like you these days."

Thinking of Xia Qingrou, Xiao Xingshuang subtly puffed out her chest.

"I haven't had the chance," Xiao Xingshuang said.

Han Muxue didn't know what she meant, but at that moment, she didn't really want to understand.

"I think people should respect themselves more, not be frivolous like Xia Qingrou," Han Muxue said. "What do you think?"

"I agree," Xiao Xingshuang said, her dissatisfaction with Xia Qingrou having built up over time.

Han Muxue leaned over, gently grasping the armrest of the wheelchair, "Yeah, a person's first time should be after marriage, not just casually given away to someone else. I hate premarital promiscuity the most—it's not self-respecting."

Xiao Xingshuang hummed in response, whether in agreement or merely out of courtesy was not clear.

Han Muxue let out a sigh of relief and coaxed softly, "There are a lot of handsome guys in Roman. I hear the men there are all tall, good-looking, and rich. You can take your time there and choose someone you like."

Xiao Xingshuang slightly tilted her head, non-committal, finding Han Muxue a bit strange.

Han Muxue winked, "By the way, what type of guys do you like?"

Xiao Xingshuang didn't understand her purpose, but still considered the question seriously.

What type of guy did she like? She really couldn't think of any.

She couldn't think of any type of guy she liked—perhaps because all along she had relied only on herself. She didn't need a man in her life to survive.

So when it came to this topic, the only figure that came to mind was Shen Mochen.

This wasn't because she particularly liked Shen Mochen, but because he was the only guy she was relatively familiar with. The question, for her, could only point to this one option.

Of course, Shen Mochen was also to be passed over. Never mind what she thought of him; he, being a man who lived off women and a flirt, surely wouldn't be interested in her.

Hmm, to think she bared it all, and he made no move.

Was this the same guy who would broadcast explicit acts with Xia Qingrou and her dorm on a regular basis?

Her body was the only thing she could pride herself on, aside from her superpower.

Xiao Xingshuang was no fool. From a young age, she knew her looks were significantly attractive to men. Walking down the street, she was often asked for her contact information, and on social apps, she would receive men's eager confessions or flirtations with ulterior motives.

So failing in front of Shen Mochen this time was indeed a blow to her self-esteem.

He was really unlike any other man, although he was a scumbag.

Seeing Xiao Xingshuang's prolonged silence, Han Muxue grew a bit anxious, "Don't you have any guy you like?"

Xiao Xingshuang shook her head, speaking softly, "I can't think of what kind of guy I should like."

Han Muxue stretched out the corners of her mouth, a mix of joy and nervousness, "What do you think about someone like Shen Mochen?"

"I think he's fickle, not good," Xiao Xingshuang shook her head again.

"But he's really handsome!"

"Other things aren't good."

For example, he was quite the womanizer... although it was strange that he refused her body. She had told him she wouldn't talk about it, and she was confident her body would not lose out to anyone.

For example, he was greedy for her million... although it seemed he hadn't planned to take it at first. It was her who persisted, and after he took the IOU, he seemed not to take it seriously, not even asking for interest. He was unexplainably generous in other ways.

For example, he was dishonest, hiding his superpower... although he actually used his power to save the lives of the whole team without asking for anything in return.
