Destiny Mission of game 'Star Ring'

"Sure, what's up?"

Su Mo asked curiously.

"Have you been in contact with any other girls recently?"

Qian Chengxue asked gently.

When Su Mo heard Qian Chengxue's question, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning, his heart suddenly tightened.

"Uh, well... let me explain."

Su Mo, no matter how clueless, realized that Qian Chengxue was most likely talking about Lin Zinuo, so he quickly tried to explain.

Lin Xiaoyu, sitting across from them, usually had no interest in such matters, but when it came to Su Mo, it was different, she exclaimed in surprise.

"Brother-in-law, you're already starting to look for a mistress!"

"Ahem, don't talk nonsense! Xue'er, listen to me."

Hearing Lin Xiaoyu's words, Su Mo almost choked on his saliva.

"No need to be so nervous, it's actually not a big deal, I'm just asking."

Qian Chengxue replied with a smile.

"No, no, listen, let me make excuses, not explanations."

Su Mo felt even more uneasy seeing Qian Chengxue's calm and unbothered demeanor.

"Alright! Look at how anxious you are. I just wanted to tell you, even if there are other relationships, it's okay as long as they're not public."

"Huh? What are you talking about?"

Su Mo was completely confused.

"I mean, having a few close female friends is quite normal, you just need to have some discretion."

Qian Chengxue smiled and said, under normal circumstances, if it were ordinary people or those from small families, they wouldn't accept this.

But for someone from a big family like Qian Chengxue, it's completely normal.

For instance, her father Lin Yaotian and adoptive father Ye Tian both had more than one spouse, so she was used to it.

Plus, with Su Mo's excellence and strength, it's perfectly normal for him to attract admirers.

"Sister's right, isn't this quite normal?"

Lin Xiaoyu tilted her head and chimed in.

"Not normal at all, can't you help me say something nice?"

Su Mo responded to Lin Xiaoyu, exasperated.

At this point, Lin Xiaoyu suddenly brightened up and said to Qian Chengxue, "By the way, sister, I also think Su Mo is great. Rather than benefiting someone else, why not benefit me?"

Su Mo nearly spat out a mouthful of blood upon hearing this. He stood up immediately, his heart on the verge of failing.

"Stop fooling around, even jokes should have limits."

"I'm serious, right, sister?"

Lin Xiaoyu laughed, looking at Qian Chengxue.

Qian Chengxue rubbed her forehead, a bit of a headache, and replied, "Alright, Xiao Yu, stop making a fuss and eat."

"Boring, you all eat."

Lin Xiaoyu stood up and left directly.

Su Mo took a deep breath and said to Qian Chengxue, "Next time, don't joke like that, really, there's nothing going on, let's eat, and I'll take a walk with you after."

"Okay."

Qian Chengxue nodded and smiled in agreement.

---------------------------------------------

Half a month later, Su Mo was sitting in Qian Chengxue's room, browsing the Star Ring Forum on his phone.

Qian Chengxue was sitting at her desk, sorting through a pile of documents.

Su Mo put down his phone, stretched, and then looked at Qian Chengxue, noticing she was still working.

He walked over to her and placed his hands on her shoulders and spine, giving a gentle massage, speaking softly.

"It's pretty late, are you still busy?"

"Yeah, my father is currently organizing supplies for the front lines. All of these have been donated through his network. I need to sort and categorize them, and pick out the most useful ones. As for the less valuable donations, we need to find a way to exchange them for Star Coins. All of these need to be completed promptly."

Qian Chengxue explained helplessly.

"You've worked hard."

Su Mo said.

"It's nothing really, I'm just doing what I can. The supply gap on the front lines is like a bottomless pit. My brother and his team are also there, and they're having an extremely tough time. We're just trying to help as much as we can. It's late now, you should go rest, your body hasn't fully recovered yet."

Qian Chengxue turned her head, showing a tired yet genuine smile.

Su Mo felt a pang of distress, knowing how busy Qian Chengxue had truly been lately.

On one hand, helping Lin Yaotian prepare supplies, and on the other, maintaining the operations of the Chenxi Group, since the last major battle.

Now, the situation across countries has become even more turbulent.

The starry sky has become increasingly chaotic. If the probability of being attacked when an interstellar ship ventures out was previously around five percent, it's now almost ninety percent.

Basically, it means venturing out is nearly a death sentence now.

This has led to no one daring to go out, and currently, economies in various civilizations are experiencing severe issues.
