The little female is incredibly sweet and soft, healing the five evil beasts right from the start.

Chapter 162 Clothes
Upon hearing Jiang Mian's words, Zhao Ci's gaze shifted, and her cheeks flushed slightly, making her already stunningly beautiful face appear even more alluring and captivating.

“It should be a surprise…” Zhao Ci said softly. He didn’t know if she would like it or not. His gaze shifted slightly away and then fell back on Jiang Mian. “I designed and cut it myself.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Mian didn't rush to open the gift. Instead, she looked up at him and asked in surprise, "You can design and tailor clothes too?"

Zhao Ci gently touched her face, looked down at her, and didn't mind revealing his human identity. As for what was difficult to say, he didn't want to tell her. He simply revealed his public identity, "I don't know if you've heard of me, fashion and jewelry designer Z, that's me."

He likes beautiful and dazzling things, so he carves the beautiful gems he gets into the shapes he likes, designs his own sparkly clothes, and embellishes them with gems. This is just his hobby.

Jiang Mian's interest naturally lies only in potions, so her social circle is naturally within the potion circle. However, even within this potion circle, she has heard of Z.

There's no other reason than that a dress designed by Master Z drove women across the entire galaxy into a frenzy, and the price of the dress was driven up to an extremely high level. She often felt dizzy when she saw the price in the tens of figures, and she really couldn't understand the pursuit of those wealthy nobles.

But Z is actually the imperial edict in front of us?

Jiang Mian paused, her lips moving slightly, "I've heard Z is very mysterious. No one has ever seen his real face. He might only design one piece of clothing a year, or only one piece of jewelry every few years..."

The clothes and jewelry sought after by the wealthy and noble are actually made by the orcs they despise the most. I wonder what they think about that.

"Is that so?" Zhao Ci blinked gently and smiled slightly. "Things are always valued for their rarity."

He gently patted her head again: "But that's just my hobby. After all, Star Search Company is mine. What boss works so hard for others? Besides, the company has many talented fashion and jewelry designers. We can rely on them."

StarSeeking Company is naturally a clothing and jewelry design company.

This company handles everything from sourcing and processing raw materials to designing and showcasing products.

The raw materials are generally mined from some star stones. Some gemstones may have originated from rocks in the Milky Way or from minerals from extremely remote and harsh planets.

The imperial edict usually refers to a team that collects star stones in the universe.

There are legitimate companies and teams that can collect starstones, as well as illegitimate interstellar wandering gangs.

He has a publicly known company team, as well as an undisclosed group of interstellar wandering beasts.

He's just an ordinary leader of space pirates and rogue beasts.

The Space Pirates and Wandering Beasts gang—that's his main force.

And his power is still expanding.

"Impressive!" Jiang Mian didn't seem very surprised when he heard that Xing Xun was him. After all, he was the future Beast Lord. How could he become the Beast Lord without some strength?

This feeling is almost as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

It should be the same as it should be.

"I don't know much about these things," Jiang Mian smiled slightly, "but you must be pretty amazing, right?"

"That's all there is to it." Zhao Ci's eyes flickered slightly as his gaze fell on the girl's face, something seeming to flash in his eyes.

The forces he created were naturally intended to overthrow human rule.

And now, the girl he likes is also human.

He overthrows and destroys her human-centered world. Will she hate him then?

Zhao Ci suddenly reached out and hugged Jiang Mian, gently saying, "Mianmian, no matter what happens in the future, you can't abandon me, okay?"

He wouldn't let her discover those forces. What the Beastmaster leader K did had nothing to do with his resignation.
"You can't abandon me." Zhao Ci said in a low, hoarse voice, tightening his arms around Jiang Mian as if he wanted to hold her tightly in his arms forever, so that she could never escape.

He naturally had no idea that Jiang Mian had returned from the future.

Jiang Mian knew the future trajectory. Her abilities could perhaps only change the situation in terms of pharmaceutical contributions, altering the overall interstellar pollution, restoring vegetation to its evergreen state, and improving the living environment for all people in the interstellar space.

This was something she had always been pursuing.

Once she finds the Blue Condensing Grass, this goal should be achieved soon.

So what's next...?

Jiang Mian lowered her brows slightly, then gently hugged Zhao Ci back: "Don't worry, I won't abandon you."

She changed the subject, saying, "Okay, let me open it and see what gift you gave me last time."

Jiang Mian gently pushed Zhao Ci away, and Zhao Ci obediently took a few steps back with her force.

After she untied the ribbon from the gift box and opened it, the first thing that caught her eye was a pair of shimmering pink butterfly wings, but they were actually made of soft, lustrous rock paint, not real butterfly wings.

The imitation butterfly has extremely fine ribbons under its wings.

Jiang Mian couldn't tell what kind of clothes they were at first, but after taking the whole garment out, she finally saw what they were.

She was puzzled; this shouldn't be clothing, but rather just butterfly wing decorations.

After all, apart from the imitation pink butterfly wings, the rest were all long, soft, slightly shimmering pink ribbons.

Extremely thin ribbons, with no fabric covering them at all.

However, she held the pink butterfly wings high, and the pink shimmering ribbons were taller than her, hanging down and sparkling beautifully.

"Thank you for the imperial edict, it's very beautiful." Jiang Mian didn't even realize that the ribbons could be used to tie and wrap around her, and smiled slightly. "Is this an ornament? When you put it by the window, the ribbons can move when the wind blows in."

Zhao Ci's eyes flickered slightly, and he couldn't help but wrap his hand around her wrist, which was holding the pink butterfly wings. At this moment, he felt that his thoughts were really dirty. How could his Mianmian be so pure? His heart was beating fast, and he was very excited.

“It’s not an ornament.” Zhao Ci’s strikingly red lips moved slightly. “It’s clothing.”

Jiang Mian was stunned when she heard this. Apart from the extremely thin fabric that imitated butterfly wings, where was there any fabric left for those ribbons?
Seeing her bewildered expression, Zhao Ci's Adam's apple bobbed slightly, and his thin red eyelids lifted slightly as he added, "Sexy clothes."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Mian's fair cheeks flushed bright red.

Zhao Ci's slender fingers gently hooked a fluttering pink ribbon and wrapped it lightly around his fingers, making his fingers appear even whiter. His voice was soft and husky, "These pink ribbons can be wrapped around Mianmian's body, anywhere..."

His mind was already filled with designs for sexy lingerie, and the models were all his Mianmian...

His Mianmian will look very, very beautiful in it.

Jiang Mian had no idea that Zhao Ci would later dedicate all his design inspiration and energy to designing sexy lingerie and clothes for her...

But this is just the beginning.

Upon hearing the imperial edict's words, a sentence flashed through Jiang Mian's mind:

Bondage play?
