Space Survival: My Teammates Are All Top-Tier
Chapter 22 Jiang Shi, you're such a big idiot...
Jiang Shi stopped moving, inwardly realizing something was wrong, but still turned around.
Guo Wanxing stood a few steps away, her eyelashes slightly lowered, avoiding his direct gaze.
"Miss Guo..."
"Just call me Wanxing," Guo Wanxing interrupted, mustering her courage.
She glanced at him out of the corner of her eye, then quickly looked away.
"Well!"
Jiang Shi paused for a moment, then scratched his head without thinking much of it:
"Alright! Then, Wanxing, come in and talk."
Upon hearing this, Guo Wanxing breathed a slight sigh of relief and gave a soft "hmm".
As soon as she entered, she saw one of the flowerpots planted with a vine-like plant.
It quickly caught her attention.
"Jiang Shi, is this... a sweet potato vine?" Guo Wanxing asked uncertainly.
I quickly walked over, half-squatted in front of the flowerpot, and looked at the stems and vines with some wilted leaves.
"Yes, I just got it."
Jiang Shi walked over to her and squatted down, looking at the precious plant.
"I was planning to ask you to take a look at this. Would you like some water?"
He casually took out an unopened 500ml bottle of water from the storage space, unscrewed it, and handed it over.
Guo Wanxing shook her head and declined, "No need, thank you."
As he spoke, his expression became focused. He extended his finger and then activated his talent, Plant Catalysis.
The sweet potato vines, which had been somewhat wilted, began to stand upright.
The buds swell and sprout new tiny leaves, while new lateral buds also emerge on the main stem.
In just over ten seconds, the sweet potato vine came back to life.
Jiang Shi looked on with excitement. Thank goodness she was there! Otherwise, I would have been in deep trouble!
Looking at Guo Wanxing's profile, her eyes showed a hint of relief...
Half an hour later, Guo Wanxing withdrew her hand, slightly out of breath.
Catalyzing plant growth is also a great drain on her, but looking at the revitalized sweet potato vines, a faint smile appeared on her lips.
Phew... I should survive!
Jiang Shi saw this and was delighted.
Without being stingy, he immediately took out another half-meter-long loaf of bread from his storage space.
He broke off a large piece and handed it over along with the already opened bottle of water.
"Eat something to regain your strength. Take this water too, just remember to return the bottle to me later."
Guo Wanxing looked at the food and water offered to her but did not take them.
His gaze fell on the sweet potato vines again. He hesitated for a moment, then looked up and stared directly at Jiang Shi.
"Jiang Shi, can I trade these foods for a section of your sweet potato vine?"
"Of course, not now, but when it grows a bit bigger and has enough vines, I'll only need a small section."
She knew the value of sweet potatoes, and she knew it was Jiang Shi, but a crop that could produce a stable yield was her hope for survival.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Shi nodded without hesitation:
"No problem! Once it grows more lush, I'll give you a few sections, no problem."
For him, the potential yield of sweet potato vines is high, but the potential value of teammates with catalytic abilities is even higher.
Building good relationships is a win-win situation.
"Really?" Guo Wanxing's eyes lit up, not expecting Jiang Shi to agree so readily.
"certainly."
"However, I have one request!"
"What are your requirements?"
Guo Wanxing subconsciously pressed for more information, her heart pounding.
Does he have some special conditions?
Her face began to burn, and a jumble of random thoughts flashed through her mind uncontrollably.
Could it be...?
Jiang Shi looked at Guo Wanxing's cheeks, which had suddenly turned red again, and felt a sense of bewilderment.
Why is her face red again? I didn't say anything!
Without investigating further, he simply shoved the bread and water in his hand into Guo Wanxing's hands.
"My requirement is that you take the food I give you. How can you have the energy to work if you're not full? We'll be going out of the cabin to collect supplies later, so you need to have the strength!"
Guo Wanxing stared blankly at the food that had been forced into her hand.
So that's all he wanted? To be allowed to eat?
A feeling welled up inside me, a subtle sweetness of being cared for and a sense of security.
"Thanks."
She said softly, and this time she didn't refuse, and started eating in small bites.
Looking at her, Jiang Shi felt a strange sensation.
Surprisingly, he found it somewhat attractive...
Damn!
Jiang Shi quickly looked away, feeling his cheeks burning.
To cover up his sudden unease, he said, "You eat slowly, I'm going to wash my face."
Then, he quickly walked to the bathroom.
I turned on the tap and washed my face with cold water, which calmed my mind a lot.
This water is from when he just opened the panel and clicked on the second-stage water circulation system to add 10 liters of water; the current water level is 5%.
200 liters? Not bad, not bad...
After cooling off, Jiang Shi came out and looked at Guo Wanxing, who seemed much calmer.
"Wanxing, you said you wanted to discuss this. I only have one opinion: let's not let things get out of control..."
After he finished speaking, he waited for Guo Wanxing's response, ready to hear her thoughts.
However, several minutes passed, and there was silence on the other side.
Jiang Shi looked up in confusion.
Guo Wanxing was sitting there, her hands tightly gripping the bottle of water.
With his head down and his body trembling, he exuded a sense of suppressed fear.
Upon seeing this, Jiang Shi's heart skipped a beat, but he didn't dwell on it.
I leaned against the other bulkhead, just about to open the trading area to check how well the sales were going.
Just then, Guo Wanxing walked over.
Jiang Shi was immediately startled!
Guo Wanxing's eyes were red and her face was pale. Her gaze towards Jiang Shi showed struggle, helplessness, and a hint of pleading.
"What's wrong with you?" Jiang Shi immediately stood up.
Guo Wanxing looked at Jiang Shi and said weakly, "I'm afraid of the dark..."
"Ha!" Jiang Shi looked very surprised. He thought something had happened, but it turned out to be just like this?
Surprised as he was, Jiang Shi quickly recovered and, without asking why, said, "In that case, you can stay by my side!"
Looking into Guo Wanxing's eyes, he added, "However, Wanxing, I still have to give you some advice. I don't know what you've been through, and I don't want to know."
"In space, you have to find a way to overcome it as quickly as possible."
Guo Wanxing stared at him blankly.
There was no mockery, no impatience, no questioning; though he wasn't good at comforting people, but...
"Jiang Shi, don't you think I'm annoying and dramatic?"
His voice began to choke.
Jiang Shi shook his head: "No way. Everyone has fears and flaws. I'm not a fake person, why would I bother you?"
What a joke! Me, annoyed by you? Your talent alone won't allow me to annoy you!
Just as he finished speaking, a light fragrance wafted into his nose.
Then Guo Wanxing leaned forward, opened her arms, and hugged Jiang Shi tightly.
So sudden!
Before Jiang Shi could react, a soft body crashed into his arms, and he felt the warmth emanating from Guo Wanxing through her clothes.
The hug completely stunned him.
Before Jiang Shi could react, Guo Wanxing stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the cheek!
A warm touch, and they separate instantly.
"Thanks."
After saying that, Guo Wanxing quickly released her grip and turned back to her original position.
She lowered her head and covered her burning face with both hands.
Jiang Shi was left alone, petrified.
What is she doing?
Within seconds, Jiang Shi's CPU was almost smoking.
After a long while, Jiang Shi finally reacted, his heart pounding wildly.
He took a deep breath, then another, glanced at Guo Wanxing, and mustered his courage.
Then, he walked straight up to Guo Wanxing, who was still covering her face.
He crouched down and moved a little closer.
"Wanxing, why did you kiss me out of the blue?"
"puff……"
The sound of Xiao Ai vomiting blood rang in his mind at that very moment.
The moment Jiang Shi uttered those words, Guo Wanxing blushed deeply through the gaps between her fingers as she covered her face!
It was intentional, absolutely intentional...
Guo Wanxing suddenly stretched out her right hand, quickly, accurately, and ruthlessly pinching Jiang Shi's side and twisting it with all her might.
"Aww..."
A pig-slaughtering sound rang out.
Whew...that feels good.
Guo Wanxing raised her head, her pretty face flushed, and stared directly at Jiang Shi.
He cursed, "Jiang Shi, you're a complete idiot..."
