169: Passed unanimously

Let's divide the narrative and tell two different stories!

After Ning Kexin brought Qin Mengyue back to her Train.

The two of them looked at their Train, feeling that it was inferior to Luo Chen's Train in every way, and a desire to improve their own Train naturally arose.

The two sat at a makeshift conference table, waiting for the other Vice Train Captains on the Train to arrive.

Before long, Xu Ruyan entered with Su SuSu, Jiang Bin, and fifteen others.

Among them, ten were female Vice Train Captains and five were male Vice Train Captains.

When recruiting Vice Train Captains, as a woman, Qin Mengyue still preferred to recruit women.

If there were too many men, it would be difficult for her, a woman, to manage.

"Please all sit down!" Qin Mengyue sat at the head of the table and said with a smile.

Su SuSu and Xu Ruyan sat to Qin Mengyue's right, while Jiang Bin sat to her left, and the others sat behind them in order.

"Sister Meng, what's the matter, calling us over so late? And why are you staying on someone else's Train?" Su SuSu asked, looking at her daughter with some nervousness.

"Mom, I'm fine!" Qin Mengyue shook her head:

"I came back from Luo Chen's Train because we discussed a collaboration. I won't go into the details of the collaboration process. I mainly want to talk about the content of the collaboration. Luo Chen currently has a [partner with you] golden core and wants to turn our Train into his affiliated Train, just like the one you saw on the leaderboard. If we join, we will become the second one.

An affiliated Train will not merge with the main Train, so we will still operate independently, but we will receive corresponding supplies and intelligence support from Luo Chen. His material resources and intelligence are obvious to all, so I won't explain much more."

As Qin Mengyue spoke, she took out the [purification water tank] core and placed it on the table.

Everyone looked at the purple core in front of Qin Mengyue and immediately widened their mouths. That previous purple core had drained most of their assets, and they hadn't expected Qin Mengyue to get another one.

Xu Ruyan's eyes darted between Qin Mengyue and Ning Kexin, filled with surprise.

She hadn't expected the two of them to be so... bold. The women she had arranged to talk to hadn't even started yet, and these two had already given themselves away.

"Sister Meng, is this...?" Su SuSu looked at her daughter in shock. She also knew about the plan Ning Kexin had proposed.

Seeing the core in front of Qin Mengyue now, she naturally understood what was going on.

"Mom! I'll talk to you alone later." Qin Mengyue shook her head, looked at everyone, and continued:

"This is a purification water tank, the reward for my collaboration with Luo Chen. If we become allies, there will be even more of these."

"Really!"

"Are you sure he won't deceive us?"

Everyone was a little moved and began to discuss among themselves.

Water is the source of life, the primary need for the continuation of life.

If they could get enough water, it seemed that becoming Luo Chen's Train was not a bad thing.

"Ruyan, take it and install it on the Train later." Qin Mengyue pushed the [purification water tank] to Xu Ruyan, who nodded and took it.

Qin Mengyue interrupted, "Alright, now for the vote. Those who are willing, please raise your hands. If 70% agree, it passes!"

Soon, eight hands went up, while the others remained observing.

Ning Kexin pouted unhappily at this scene, realizing it wasn't a unanimous vote.

If anyone was most willing to become an affiliated Train of Luo Chen, it was undoubtedly her.

Her gaze fell on Jiang Bin, and seeing that he hadn't raised his hand, her eyes darted around, and she said, "Uncle Jiang Bin, I heard you awakened yesterday. How does it feel?"

Jiang Bin nodded repeatedly, happily saying, "Very good! That feeling of being filled with strength is very comfortable."

When Jiang Bin was on Blue Star, he was a special forces soldier and had a strong admiration for strength.

"I heard that Luo Chen has a token of the god of hunting. Are you sure you don't agree? Once we leave this planet, you won't have anywhere to improve your strength!" Ning Kexin said playfully.

Jiang Bin's eyes widened instantly. He had to admit that Ning Kexin's words were very appealing.

He quickly raised both hands and rumbled, "I also agree. I raise both hands in favor."

"Luo Chen also has other tokens! Maybe you all can also awaken!" Ning Kexin's gaze swept over the others, she said again.

Soon, the others' eyes lit up, and they all raised their hands.

Awakening held an appeal for almost everyone. Immortality and powerful strength were things that neither men nor women could refuse.

Qin Mengyue gave Ning Kexin a helpless look and decided, "Alright, it's a unanimous vote. You can all disperse now. With water, you can all take a shower."

"Sister Meng is brilliant!" The others immediately shouted excitedly. Being able to shower only once every five or six days, they felt like they were starting to smell.

After everyone left, only Ning Kexin, Xu Ruyan, and Su SuSu remained by Qin Mengyue's side.

Qin Mengyue wrinkled her nose. It wasn't obvious after being on the Train for a long time, but as soon as she returned from Luo Chen's Train, she felt that her own Train was full of sweat, especially when they were all sitting together.

"Ruyan, go install the [purification water tank]. Let them take a good shower, and then buy some perfume from Erina. Our Train smells too bad."

Xu Ruyan nodded slightly and turned to leave.

"Sister Meng, are you and Ke Xin really...?" Su SuSu asked, looking at the two women seriously.

Qin Mengyue nodded, a blush flashing across her face: "Mom, everyone has this once. In this endless starry sky, constantly facing various life-and-death dilemmas, do you still want me to find a good man to date? Besides, Luo Chen is quite good."

Su SuSu sighed, knowing this was true: "Next time, take me to see him. I also want to see what kind of person he is."

"Mom, do you know who I saw on Luo Chen's Train? My eldest aunt and second aunt, they were both on Luo Chen's Train!"

"Oh? They're still alive?" Su SuSu was a little surprised. After marrying into the Qin family, her husband was mostly away, and she had a good relationship with her two sisters-in-law at home.

"Yes! Luo Chen's Train happened to pass by our family's villa, so my eldest aunt followed and got on Luo Chen's Train. My eldest aunt used the cooking skills she learned from you to become a chef on Luo Chen's Train!" Qin Mengyue said with a smile.

"Aunt SuSu! Maybe when you go there, you can even become a master chef!" Ning Kexin praised.

"You're just sweet-talking." Su SuSu gave Ning Kexin a charming glare and looked at Qin Mengyue, saying, "Next time you have time, take me to see them. I feel like it's been a long time since I talked to them."

Qin Mengyue nodded and said, "We're going back soon. I haven't told Luo Chen we're back, so it would be hard to explain bringing you over. Let's wait until we become an affiliated Train before I take you."

Su SuSu nodded.

Afterward, Ning Kexin and Qin Mengyue returned to Luo Chen's Voyage.
