Space Survival: My Teammates Are All Top-Tier

Jiang Shi didn't move an inch, just stared at her coldly, wondering what Zhang Ruoyu would do next.

Zhang Ruoyu was rooted to the spot by that gaze. It was no longer a simple feeling of disgust or wariness; it was murderous intent.

Although it was fleeting, she felt it clearly.

He dared to kill me? Was he really after me?

No, this reaction is so intense, there's definitely something wrong.

Did he really do that to Xiaoxiao last night, and now he's feeling guilty and wants to kill me to silence me?

What to do? Refund is out of the question, but not refunding is also out of the question...

Zhang Ruoyu panicked. Just as she was caught in a dilemma, footsteps came from the other end of the corridor.

"Jiang Shi, Ruoyu, what are you doing at the door?"

Liu Siqin's voice rang out; she had come over to check on Wang Xiaoxiao's condition.

Zhang Ruoyu felt as if she had grasped a lifeline, and was overjoyed. She turned around and said, "Sister Liu! You've come at the right time. I just wanted to see Xiaoxiao and check on her injuries. But Jiang Shi..."

A well-timed hesitation or pause can reveal the speaker's meaning.

As Liu Siqin approached, she listened to Zhang Ruoyu's words, frowned slightly, and roughly understood what was going on.

It seems that Jiang Shi still harbors resentment towards Ruoyu and is unwilling to put on a show.

Forget it, this is between them, I won't get involved.

"I see."

"I came here to check on Xiaoxiao's recovery and, by the way, to use my talent to help her recover."

Liu Siqin explained her purpose for coming.

Jiang Shi glanced at Liu Siqin, then stepped aside. "Sister Liu, come in. As for Zhang Ruoyu, she can go back wherever she wants."

This differential treatment made Zhang Ruoyu unable to keep her smile, and she immediately turned to Liu Siqin for help.

Liu Siqin sighed as she saw Zhang Ruoyu looking to her for help.

She wasn't one to stir up trouble, especially not in situations involving personal grudges.

Being a peacemaker isn't easy.

Moreover, given Jiang Shi's resolute attitude, forcing a reconciliation might only cause more trouble.

Liu Siqin looked at the two of them with a slightly troubled expression, and finally chose to stay out of it.

"Ruoyu, I shouldn't interfere too much in your affairs. How about this, I'll let you know after I've finished reading it, so don't worry too much."

That was a polite way of putting it, but the meaning was clear: she wouldn't take sides.

Jiang was very pleased and his impression of Liu Siqiang improved even further.

Zhang Ruoyu forced out an understanding smile:

"Okay, Sister Liu, thank you for your help. Please tell me if anything happens to Xiaoxiao."

As he spoke, he glanced at Jiang Shi again, then turned and hurriedly left.

Walking down the corridor, Zhang Ruoyu felt both cold and confused.

Why can Liu Siqin go in, but I can't?

Is it just because of a past conflict? No, Liu Siqin is a doctor. If Jiang Shi violated Wang Xiaoxiao, no matter how well he hid it, he couldn't escape the eyes of a top doctor.

Letting her in would be tantamount to jumping into a fire pit. Jiang Shi wouldn't be that stupid. It can only be said that nothing happened last night.

But since it didn't happen, he wouldn't let me see it. Last night, the misunderstanding was cleared up, and he shouldn't have harbored murderous intent towards me. In other words, the drug did take effect, but he managed to get through it on his own, or perhaps there was an antidote.

That explains their strong hostility towards me today...

The more I think about it, the more it makes sense.

"What a miscalculation!"

Zhang Ruoyu sighed inwardly.

It seems I've really offended Jiang Shi this time. I can't have too much contact with him in the future, or my life will be in danger...

She wasn't stupid; on the contrary, under pressure, she quickly made the right judgment.

Stop pursuing Jiang Shi, let go, and downplay the conflict...

However, what she didn't know was that some mistakes, once made, can never be undone.

Letting go of the drugging incident? It's too late...

Liu Siqin entered the cabin and went straight to the bedroom.

He first glanced at the jellyfish by the bedside, then carefully examined Wang Xiaoxiao's condition.

The little girl slept much more peacefully than before, her breathing was even, and there was no longer any pain on her face.

"The recovery is going well."

Liu Siqin whispered to Jiang Shi, who followed her in, and stretched out her hand, her palm glowing with light, covering Wang Xiaoxiao's forehead.

It lasted for several minutes before slowly dissipating.

"I've tried my best to treat her with my natural talents, but I didn't expect her to have such a good foundation. She'll wake up so quickly."

Liu Siqin withdrew her hand and instructed Jiang Shi, "Take good care of her. Feed her some food after she wakes up, and don't rush to move her around."

"Sister Liu, I will."

Jiang Shi nodded, his tone softening considerably.

He had no ill feelings towards Liu Siqin herself; on the contrary, seeing how she treated Bai Yubing and Xiaoxiao, he felt some respect for her.

This is a responsible doctor.

The two walked to the outer cabin section. Liu Siqin stopped at the door, hesitated for a moment, and turned to look at Jiang Shi:

"Jiang Shi, may I say something unrelated to this topic?"

Jiang Shi nodded: "Sister Liu, please speak."

Liu Siqin carefully chose her words: "Jiang Shi, we're all in the same boat now, we're a team. I know Ruoyu's previous behavior made you very uncomfortable."

"But it's normal to be wary at first, since everyone is unfamiliar with each other, especially since you're the only person of the opposite sex here..."

She paused, feeling she had already said something, observed Jiang Shi's expression, and continued:

"Ruoyu has already apologized to you. What I mean is, maybe we should be a little more tolerant and compromise. That way, it's better for her, better for you, and easier for everyone to get along."

"After all, we'll be collaborating in the future, don't you think?"

Jiang Shi gave a slightly embarrassed smile and touched his nose:

"Sister Liu, you're right. Perhaps I'm being a bit petty."

He agreed verbally, but his heart was cold.

Sister Liu, you are a good doctor, but you don't know what she did.

The starting point is good, and I agree with it, but there are certain bottom lines that, if crossed, will have consequences.

Zhang Ruoyu, she really angered me...

"It's good that you think that way. I'll be going now. Captain Bai still needs to be looked after."

He had just turned and taken two steps when he suddenly remembered something and stopped, without turning back: "Oh, right, the captain woke up. She's still very weak, but she's conscious. She asked me to pass on a message to you."

Jiang Shi's eyes narrowed.

Liu Siqin continued, "She said that the Star-level Void Black Insect King will not appear again. She hopes that after the safe period, you can temporarily lead everyone out to collect supplies."

Jiang Shi was silent for a few seconds before replying, "Sister Liu, could you also pass on a message to the captain for me?"

Liu Siqin tilted her head slightly.

"Okay, I agree."

OK.

Liu Siqin made a simple gesture, then left without lingering.

Jiang Shi watched her retreating figure, a smile playing on his lips.

Captain, oh Captain...

So your goal was never just that elemental crystal. Eliminating the biggest threat and clearing the obstacles to resource gathering was your true objective, wasn't it?

"It was Jiang Shi who was short-sighted."

"but,"

"Even if it happened again, I would still refuse you. The interests are unfair, making cooperation difficult..."

Jiang Shi closed the cabin door and turned around to see Guo Wanxing standing behind him.

"Jiang Shi, you're spacing out again. I've been standing here for so long and you didn't even notice."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Shi simply smiled and asked, "Wanxing, you heard everything?"

"I'm sorry to disappoint you."

Guo Wanxing approached, a playful smile in her eyes.

"Every single word, it all went into my ears."

"How could I be disappointed?"

Jiang Shi reached out and patted her head. "You heard me, so I don't need to waste my breath explaining anymore."
