When Jiang Shi opened his eyes, he found himself half-lying on the ground, holding Guo Wanxing, who was disheveled and had a flushed face, in his arms. He was stunned.

Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?

Jiang Shi had three questions in his mind, then shook his head.

"This must be a dream, yes, it must be a dream?"

She could look down at Guo Wanxing's face, which was so close to hers, and feel his breath and warmth.

Suddenly I woke up.

"Wow, this isn't a dream..."

Just then, they happened to be facing Guo Wanxing, who had just opened her eyes, and both of their cheeks flushed bright red.

They staggered back a few steps, hurriedly straightening their clothes, their eyes darting away, not daring to look at each other at all.

An awkward silence fell over the cabin.

Jiang Shi cleared his throat, his gaze drifting elsewhere to break the silence, and stammered:

"Well, Miss Guo."

"We...we think we just hugged? No, I mean, it's like we were influenced by something, that's why we hugged each other, no, it wasn't..."

The more he tried to explain, the less he could articulate it clearly.

Hearing this, Guo Wanxing's face turned red to her ears, her head was lowered, and her hands covered her face tightly.

The fragment from just now, every detail vividly replaying in her mind, filled her with shame and indignation.

He didn't dare look at Jiang Shi at all, nor did he dare to respond.

Just when the atmosphere was at its most awkward...

"Phew... I'm exhausted!"

Wang Xiaoxiao leaned against the cabin wall, her face pale. Activating her talent and the impact had taken a toll on her.

But when she looked at the two of them who had regained consciousness, especially at their expressions of wanting to disappear on the spot, a mischievous glint of her childish nature surfaced.

Blinking her big eyes, she blurted out without thinking, "Big brother, Sister Guo, you're finally awake! You were hugging so tightly just now, I tried so hard but I couldn't pull you apart!"

"They were... um... still kissing like that, face to face, it was really scary, what are you guys doing..."

"Cough cough...Xiaoxiao! Stop talking!"

Jiang Shi quickly covered Wang Xiaoxiao's mouth tightly, afraid that she would say something even more embarrassing, while glancing at Guo Wanxing to the side.

Guo Wanxing froze, steam practically escaping from between her fingers as she covered her face.

Upon hearing this, Guo Wanxing blushed even more, wishing she could disappear into the ground.

Wang Xiaoxiao's mouth was covered, and she made muffled noises, but her big eyes shone with "I understand, I saw it all."

"Big brother, let go. I understand what you're doing..."

"Pfft!" Jiang Shi was stunned, thinking to himself: "This isn't some little kid, how does he know so much..."

"You're the little kid, I'm already a little adult!" Wang Xiaoxiao said, hands on her hips.

"Huh?" Jiang Shi immediately sensed something was wrong and looked at Wang Xiaoxiao suspiciously: "Xiaoxiao, how did you know what I was thinking?"

Oops, I was careless... Wang Xiaoxin panicked slightly, but quickly laughed and said, "I guessed it. My talent is that I am sensitive to changes in emotions."

"Really?" Jiang Shi didn't quite believe it, but it also seemed to make a lot of sense.

At this moment, Guo Wanxing's words interrupted his thoughts. He saw that Guo Wanxing had her head down, and her somewhat messy long hair covered her expression.

"Jiang Shi, I want to go out and have some peace and quiet..."

"good!"

Jiang Shi immediately opened the inner cabin door.

As soon as the door opened, Guo Wanxing rushed out.

"Wait!" Jiang Shi called out to her out of the corner of his eye when he saw that she hadn't taken her spacesuit and the water bottle.

He then picked it up and handed it to her, and their hands accidentally touched again.

Startled, Jiang Shi quickly withdrew his order, saying, "Sorry..."

But Guo Wanxing didn't even glance at him before entering her cabin, number 6, and immediately began to float.

"Big brother, why did Sister Guo leave in such a hurry?" It was obvious that Wang Xiaoxiao was deliberately picking a fight.

Because her smile never stopped.

Jiang Shi glanced at the No. 6 cabin door immediately, closed it, and then turned around and made a shushing gesture.

"Shh, Xiaoxiao, you can't tell anyone else. This is a secret between me and Sister Guo..."

"Big brother, are you shy, or are you trying to run away?"

"How could that be? I, Jiang Shi, am not that kind of person. It was just too sudden." Jiang Shi scratched his head awkwardly, thinking to himself: Is this kid so hard to fool?

Listening to Jiang Shi's complaints about being a little kid, Wang Xiaoxiao was even happier:

Hehe, big brother, you wouldn't believe it, would you? My talent is that I can hear people's thoughts...

Jiang Shi quickly changed the subject, then frowned as if he had thought of something: "Xiao Xiao, judging from what you're saying, you weren't affected just now?"

Jiang Shi's ears were still flushed, and he felt something was off. His gaze fell on the girl's bright eyes and brows.

His tone gradually became serious, and he pressed on with another question:

"Xiaoxiao, judging from what you just said, you weren't affected, were you?"

"No!" Wang Xiaoxiao shook her head, answering crisply and decisively.

Jiang Shi frowned even more deeply and pressed on, "No? Why did we both get infected, but you're okay?"

He was truly baffled. The mental attack came so suddenly that even the two adults couldn't withstand it, yet the little girl was completely unharmed.

Wang Xiaoxiao tilted her head and waved her hand: "I don't know, I didn't feel anything, and then I just watched you and Sister Guo doing bad things."

"but…"

"Hehe, I've already caught the big bad guy."

Wang Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up, and she clapped her hands excitedly, looking very proud.

"A big bad guy?"

Jiang Shi looked puzzled, his brows furrowed, and he subconsciously asked a question, completely failing to follow the girl's train of thought.

"You're the big bad guy who made you and Sister Guo so infatuated you hugged each other!"

Wang Xiaoxiao gestured with her little hands to resemble a monster, her tone carrying a hint of boasting.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Shi's embarrassment vanished instantly, and he became serious:

"Where?"

Just as Wang Xiaoxiao opened her mouth to explain in detail, Jiang Shi suddenly heard Xiao Ai's notification sound in his mind.

At the same time, Wang Xiaoxiao heard Ya Ya's voice.

It was a notice from Bai Yubing calling for a meeting of all staff.

"Big brother! Sister Bai wants us to go to a meeting right away!"

Wang Xiaoxiao spoke first.

Jiang Shi nodded, reached out and picked up Wang Xiaoxiao: "Tell me after the meeting. Come on, let me hold you."

"Okay!"

Wang Xiaoxiao immediately hugged Jiang Shi's neck, obediently rested on his shoulder, and smiled with her eyes crinkling.

Jiang Shi carried Wang Xiaoxiao toward the cabin door, and as soon as he opened it, Guo Wanxing walked out.

The two locked eyes instantly.

The image of their entangled embrace just moments ago flooded Jiang Shi's mind, causing his cheeks to flush. His gaze drifted away, fixed on the bulkhead beside him.

No, what a coincidence?

Guo Wanxing also hurriedly turned her head away, and the two of them pretended to be nonchalant.

"Sister! Are you alright?" Guo Wanyu walked over quickly and took Guo Wanxing's hand.

"I suddenly felt dizzy just now, and I don't feel well at all. Do you feel unwell anywhere?"

Guo Wanxing seemed not to hear, letting Guo Wanyu hold her hand.

Her eyes were unfocused, and her mind was a jumbled mess, filled with images of her embracing Jiang Shi just moments before. She couldn't come to her senses for a long time.

Seeing this, Guo Wanyu was puzzled and waved her hand in front of Guo Wanxing's eyes: "Sister? What's wrong with you? What happened?"

Guo Wanxing snapped out of her daze and waved her hand seriously, but her voice betrayed a hint of panic:

"No, no, I'm fine. Let's go to the meeting quickly, don't keep Sister Bai waiting."

As he spoke, he pulled Guo Wanyu forward quickly, his steps hurried, as if he were running away from something.

Jiang Shi followed behind, carrying Wang Xiaoxiao, and felt a lump in his throat as he watched Guo Wanxing's retreating figure.

I deliberately slowed down and kept my distance from them.

"Big brother is so cute when he's shy!"

Wang Xiaoxiao leaned on Jiang Shi's shoulder, whispered a laugh in his ear.

Jiang Shi's face darkened, and he pretended to be fierce: "Go away, what do you know, you little kid? Don't talk nonsense, get down and walk yourself!"

"No~"

Wang Xiaoxiao snuggled closer to him, holding him even tighter.

In no time, the 10 people arrived at the round table conference room.

The people's expressions and conditions were not good; most of them were pale and tired.

They were clearly all affected by the sudden mental attack they had just received.

Only Wang Xiaoxiao, held in Jiang Shi's arms, had bright eyes and a rosy complexion...
