StarCraft: Everyone wants the Queen

Chapter 48 Familiar Figure

Based on the opinions of an excellent fashion designer and connoisseur, the two ultimately did not choose to wear either glamorous or minimalist dresses.

Instead, they opted for a waist-cinching camouflage outfit worn by border patrol officers.

"Although it might be a little difficult for you to wear, it's all worth it for the sake of beauty."

Ge Yuan tightened the belt around Shen Qingqing's waist a little.

"Ge, Ge Yuan... I, I can't breathe..."

Shen Qingqing, died.

Cause of death: The belt was too tight, causing difficulty breathing, which in turn triggered emotional distress, leading to a sudden and fatal attack of the heart.

Of course, our Ge Yuan won't just let her go offline like that.

Thanks to the emergency treatment by his personal physician, Ge Yuan, his soul returned to his body.

Finally, the belt of the police uniform was loosened a bit.

Having finally caught her breath, Shen Qingqing vowed that she would never wear such troublesome clothes again.

While pursuing beauty is a good thing, it shouldn't be done to the point of exhaustion.

"That's because you're too short. They don't have your size here, so we'll have to make do with children's clothes."

Ge Yuan was telling the truth. After all, the average height of the border patrol team here is 190 cm, and some are even taller than Ge Yuan.

Ge Yuan's tall and slender figure was encased in a tight-fitting dark green outfit, which accentuated her slim waist, long legs, and great figure, making her incredibly attractive with her curves.

Most importantly, he exudes a commanding presence.

Even without makeup, she's the most dazzling one in the crowd.

Although Shen Qingqing is also good-looking, the two are simply not the same type of beauty.

Shen Qingqing is only about 1.6 meters tall. Wearing the patrol officer uniform makes her look even more delicate and pitiful, unlike Ge Yuan's heroic and dashing appearance.

After putting on the black knee-high boots, Ge Yuan helped Shen Qingqing attach the crochet hook to the hat, and the small round hat was firmly fixed on her head, it was simply perfect!

Ge Yuan admired her work in the mirror with satisfaction.

"Wow, you're so beautiful! You look good in anything!"

She hasn't dyed her hair back since she dyed it black last time. Ge Yuan said that black hair looks better and matches this outfit better.

However, Shen Qingqing had reason to suspect that she was only trying to slip away undetected.

After all, her flamboyant pink hair was a bit too eye-catching.

"Cheer up! This is one of the few opportunities to go out shopping, don't miss it!"

Shen Qingqing picked up a few bottles and jars along with her, and asked, "Ge Yuan, why do we need to bring sunscreen at night? There's no sun now."

Ge Yuan laughed awkwardly, "Uh, it's just a habit..."

"Besides, these two cans will expire if we don't use them soon..." Ge Yuan said humbly, already on the verge of bankruptcy.

Now we have to cut costs and increase revenue.

If she could, she would also like to have beautiful and fragrant skincare products!

But without a powerful backer, and with no one to rely on, she and Celite couldn't stand each other.

Even the last bit of cash flow almost dried up.

Where would we get the money to buy anything?

Poverty makes me look repulsive.

"Okay, fine." Shen Qingqing hadn't expected this reason, but...

If you can take this opportunity to leave, it would be a good choice.

"Then we... eh?"

Before he could even utter the final word "departure," Ge Yuan pulled him into the storage room.

“Ge Yuan…” Shen Qingqing said softly, “What’s going on?”

"Hi!"

It is clear that the two of them did not go through the proper approval process and fled without permission.

The consequences of being discovered are severe.

She should have at least two months' salary deducted, plus seven days in jail.

So Ge Yuan made up a reason: "Since we're sneaking out to play, we can't let anyone find out."

They even put it in a high-sounding way, saying, "Remember to keep it a secret, and now that we have Celite's cards, why not play them?"

In fact, until the two of them slipped out, Celit didn't know that two people were missing from the spaceship. Right now, he was busy summarizing the experimental data for the next experiment.

When Ge Yuan came to collect his performance-based pay, Serit, who was so busy he didn't even know where he'd lost his monocle, simply waved his hand generously and tossed out a black card:

"Get out of here and don't bother me!"

"Yes, Your Excellency."

Only when demanding wages and bonuses would Ge Yuan reveal a fawning smile.

As for normal times?

She always spoke harshly to him, wishing she could skin him alive.

Shen Qingqing and Ge Yuan hid in the cargo hold and slipped out with the purchasing staff.

The long-awaited fresh air rushed into her nose and ears, and Shen Qingqing stared blankly at the plants and trees she hadn't seen in so long, frozen in place.

It wasn't until Ge Yuan walked over with a smile that they realized what was happening.

She's already out.

There was no monotonous laboratory or oppressive atmosphere; instead, there was an atmosphere of freedom.

"..."

He opened his mouth, but still couldn't say a word.

"I'm really out?"

"Otherwise what?" Ge Yuan said with a smile.

Then, lying on the vast grass and gazing at the starry sky above, I said, "I've noticed you've been unhappy lately, probably because you've been spending so much time in the lab. So, after learning about this rare big purchase, I thought of bringing you out for some fresh air."

Shen Qingqing was also lying on the grass, with one or two pale yellow lights occasionally appearing around her, which were fireflies.

I reached out and touched the tiny firefly. It slowly landed on my fingertip, its twinkling light incredibly cute.

"Ge Yuan, thank you."

"Why are you thanking me? I should be thanking you."

“No, you are one of the few friends I’ve ever met,” Shen Qingqing said sincerely, closing her eyes.

“I used to have two friends, but we broke up and haven’t seen each other since. We promised to travel to the stars together, but now we’re separated.”

Shen Qingqing spoke slowly and softly, as if she were telling someone else's story, not hers.

This made Ge Yuan feel very uncomfortable.

She knew all too well that once she entered the research institute, getting out would be no easy feat.

He could only turn over and look at her, comforting her, "Don't worry, Miss Mummy. Now that we've met, and now that you've told me, it will definitely come true someday."

"Tell me what they look like, and I'll keep an eye out for them for you."

However, no response was received.

Ge Yuan propped herself up and looked at Shen Qingqing, who was already fast asleep.

This dream will come true, won't it...?

She wasn't sure either.

Then Ge Yuan leaned close to her ear and whispered something.

He shrugged, seeing that she was still pretending to be asleep and unwilling to wake up.

Then he lay down next to her.

Beneath the starry sky lies an endless grassland, countless sparks, and an indescribable longing.

After a while, Shen Qingqing opened her eyes and turned to look at Ge Yuan, who had already closed her eyes and was sleeping beside her.

The Zerg are unconscious when they fall asleep; this is something she told herself.

But a sentence she whispered in her ear touched her heart.

She said, "If you want to escape, now's the time."
