Chapter 371: Chapter 371 After all, you’re not good enough for her!
Su Wan: "Passed."
Molto: "I figured as much, you’re so incredible! Su Yun and I have passed too, so I’ll see you in the next stage of the assessments!"
"Sure."
At this time, other people also came out nearby.
A voice tinged with sarcasm chimed in, "Senior Molto, you’re such a coward. Because of her, you suffered a lot back then. Are you still acting like a lapdog?"
The speaker was Hiber, a grade above Su Wan.
Originally during that Mecha contest, he was the first to oppose Su Wan becoming the team captain.
Then he was cleanly kicked out of the group by Su Wan.
After he graduated, Su Wan had no idea where he went and didn’t really pay attention.
Unexpectedly, he also came to participate in the assessments for the First Starship Fleet.
But that was to be expected, since anyone from the Federal Empire would want to join the First Starship Fleet.
Especially this year, as the First Starship Fleet had undergone some changes.
Gu Jue was still the Chief Commander, but his subordinates were divided into eight Deputy Commanders, each leading one starship.
Besides the main fleet under Gu Jue’s direct command, it was thrilling for anyone to get into the other fleets.
Molto was somewhat afraid of Su Wan but had no fear of Hiber.
He sneered, "You speak as if you weren’t defeated by Su Wan’s little sister yourself."
Hiber’s expression became unnatural as he argued forcefully.
"Back then, her victory was unfair! Everyone favored her because she was the Commander’s wife!"
A curly-haired girl by Hiber’s side, holding onto his arm, looked at Su Wan warily and added, "Besides, isn’t her participation in the assessments just for show? She is the Commander’s wife; doesn’t she just go to any department she wants?"
Until now, many people believed that Su Wan’s evolution into a Beastman must have been engineered by Gu Jue, the Commander, for his wife.
As for Su Wan possessing spatial superpowers?
That was an outright impossibility.
The fact that she discovered the explosives in the Imperial Palace back then was surely just a fluke, a streak of good luck.
And of course, Gu Jue and his people wouldn’t bother explaining the details to the public.
So that’s how the girl came to say the things she did.
Su Wan looked at the girl, who was very close to Hiber.
She said, "So, you broke up with Senior Sun Li."
At that time, the two were preparing to get married.
At the mention of Sun Li, Hiber’s expression soured, and he snorted, "That woman? What is she compared to Xiaoruo?"
The girl he called Xiaoruo looked at him with coy shyness.
Su Wan nodded, "It’s good that you broke up, after all, you don’t deserve Senior Sun Li."
"You!"
"Oh right, since you’re not convinced, let’s have a proper face-off in the following assessments if we get the chance."
Su Wan smiled as she walked past.
There was no point in wasting too much time on these people.
As for their discontent, they could be directly subdued when the time came.
After meeting up with a few friends who had finished their assessments, Su Wan planned to go eat at the Su Family restaurant together.
Her arrival immediately stirred up excitement at the Su Family restaurant.
The wife of the Commander, the Food God, a post-evolved Beastman who also possessed superpowers!
My heavens, any one of these aspects, if taken out, could shock someone’s entire family!
And now, she had all these titles!
As the boss came to dine, of course the best private room had to be prepared.
Su Wan greeted the customers with a smile and even announced a 20% discount for all the patrons dining today.
Then she entered the private room.
Luo Jina’s assessment results were quite good, and she had passed.
Resting her chin on one hand, she said, "Xiaowan, don’t you think it’s too wasteful to offer discounts without hesitation?"
Su Wan: "Only spending without earning, that’s what you call wasteful. You may see we are offering discounts today and it seems like we’re taking a loss, but just watch, today’s revenue will definitely be higher than usual!"
"I don’t believe it!"
"Then, go to the entrance and see if the number of customers isn’t increasing."
Usually, after meal times, the number of customers would definitely decrease.
Luo Jina was stubborn, pulling Alex along to the entrance to see for themselves.
A red and a green figure stood at the entrance, especially conspicuous!
Sheng An said helplessly, "Jina is the sister of the Empress, doesn’t she know that standing at the entrance with Alex, they’re even more eye-catching than the waitstaff? Won’t this attract even more customers?"
She looked at Su Wan, "Xiaowan, you’re so bad."
Su Wan was indifferent: "Because of the discount, we were bound to have more customers. It’s just that Luo Jina didn’t believe it."
In terms of marketing, this was simply a strategy of small profits but quick turnover.
Lin Yu watched their interactions, a slight smile playing at the corners of his mouth.
Pandora, on the other hand, was silent and seemed worried.
Except for Bai Qi, a sophomore who was not eligible to participate in the Starship Fleet assessment.
Pandora had also started mingling with them quite frequently.
The young lady who loved PK, at this moment, furrowed her brows tightly.
Su Wan asked, "What’s wrong, Pandora?"
Pandora wasn’t one to talk about her feelings, but this matter was troubling her.
Lifting her head and looking into Su Wan’s gentle gaze, Pandora inexplicably opened up.
"With so many people from Mermaid Planet here recently, my brother was assigned to maintain security in the tenth and eleventh districts, and then... he was pursued by a mermaid across ten districts."
Su Wan was startled.
Agros, the senior?
"Chased across ten districts?"
"Yeah, from the tenth district all the way here."
Due to the reorganization of the first Starship Fleet, Agros, who had always performed well, was exceptionally promoted to the position of Probationary Commander of the Eighth Fleet.
The reason he was only a Probationary Commander was that he needed to go through a two-year assessment process before he could be officially appointed.
Even so, his achievements were quite outstanding.
Agros’s initial engagement with Luo Jina...
Speaking of which, it was likely that neither of them harbored romantic feelings for the other.
And then there was the fact that Agros was a bit too calm and composed.
Perhaps to him, there weren’t any romantic sentiments worth considering.
Su Wan reflected, "That mermaid is pretty daring! But fancying Senior Agros, she’s got quite the pursuit ahead of her."
Pandora was frustrated, "She even followed him home!"
Thinking of the overly enthusiastic mermaid, who was either giving them gifts or eagerly wanting to join them for afternoon tea and shopping trips.
Now their whole family was somewhat helpless in dealing with this girl.
Pandora said, "My cousin dares not even to go home now."
Su Wan visualized the scenario in her mind.
Alright, although it was a bit mean, she couldn’t help wanting to laugh.
Just then, a voice suddenly rang out.
Lan Rui, standing at the entrance of the private room, exclaimed excitedly, "Su Wan, I heard they said the boss was here, you did come! How did the assessment go today?"
Next to her was a girl with doll-like ears and short silver hair.
Upon seeing Pandora, the girl’s eyes lit up.
"What a coincidence! Pandora, you’re here too?"
Pandora: "..."
