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

Chapter 18 Picking
Jiang Mian wiped her face, deciding to make an antidote for herself first. As for who the murderer was, he would naturally be exposed one day.

That person wanted her dead, and if she didn't die, he would naturally try to kill her again.

Fortunately, the medicine box contained ingredients that could be broken down and mixed to detoxify the body.

Jiang Mian breathed a slight sigh of relief after drinking it, but she would need to drink the antidote several more times to completely clear the toxins from her body.

She glanced at the rose bushes in the room; they had bloomed again.

The leaves of the cloud rose resemble fluffy white clouds, layer upon layer, looking like a cloud covering the ground, which is quite beautiful.

Jiang Mian was surprised to learn that the seeds of the cloud rose were given to her by Chi Lin, and that he actually liked this fluffy, white flower.

She thought that a flamboyant beastman like Chi Lin would like flowers with particularly bright colors.

Jiang Mian looked at the rose bushes planted in her room. They were ready to be harvested again. After this harvest, there would be no need to plant any more, as they would arrive at the X1 Pollution Star soon.

So, after refining this last batch of nutrients, she needed to figure out a way to earn star coins.

Online shopping for food, daily necessities, and other items requires Star Coins.

Jiang Mian took action after thinking about it and went over to harvest the cloud roses.

"Tuk tuk tuk..."

Just then, a knock sounded on the door.

Jiang Mian paused for a moment, then turned around and went to open the door.

She saw Rong Fei at the door.

Perhaps it was because she had just discovered she was poisoned, and the people in front of her might have poisoned her as well, that she had become wary of these people again, which had made her somewhat relaxed about them.

Jiang Mian remained calm and simply looked at Rong Fei: "Is there something you need?"

Rong Fei looked down at her, his long silver hair falling slightly, his silver eyes extremely calm. His gaze lingered on Jiang Mian's face for a moment before he slowly spoke: "Are you not feeling well today?"

Jiang Mian's dark eyes flickered slightly. Was she being so obviously distant? Was she so easily seen through?

She didn't feel that she was obviously distant.

"His face was deathly pale." Rong Fei said this casually, then reached out and grabbed the doorknob, pushed open the door, and walked into Jiang Mian's room from beside her.

Jiang Mian then realized that Rong Fei's discomfort was not because she had noticed her aloofness, but because her face was pale and she looked unwell.

She was indeed feeling unwell; she had just vomited violently against the sink.

However, Jiang Mian would not reveal that she had been poisoned.

So as not to alert the enemy.

Yes, Jiang Mian was suspicious of all five orcs.

"It's alright." Jiang Mian watched Rong Fei walk towards the patch of roses, and felt as comfortable as if she were at home as she entered her room.

Should she praise Rong Fei's incredibly relaxed and calm mindset, which avoids any awkwardness?

Jiang Mian's lips twitched slightly, and she followed him over.

She asked again, puzzled, "What's wrong?"

What is this person doing here? Could it be that he wants to help her pick cloud roses?
After Jiang Mian had this thought, she saw Rong Fei actually start digging up the cloud roses.

Rong Fei put down a cloud rose, glanced at Jiang Mian, and his silver eyes seemed to say, "Isn't this obvious?"

"I'll help you collect the cloud roses." Rong Fei half-squatted, turning slightly to look at her, his thin eyelids slightly lifted. "Isn't it obvious?"

Jiang Mian paused for a moment, then walked over and began collecting cloud roses. She asked curiously, "How did you know I was going to collect cloud roses?"

“The rosebuds bloom once a week,” Rong Fei replied casually. “Now that they are ripe, it’s the perfect time to pick them.” Jiang Mian watched his picking technique, how he carefully protected the roots, his method was professional and meticulous.

Her eyes flickered slightly: "You know quite a lot."

“Mianmian knows a lot too.” Rong Fei glanced at her, his gentle silver eyes tinged with a knowing lightness.

Jiang Mian didn't say anything.

The two of them quietly finished picking the fruit together.

Rong Fei picked up all the rosebuds and followed Jiang Mian to the kitchen.

Jiang Mian had previously thought that Rong Fei must have a severe case of mysophobia.

But now I feel like I don't quite understand Rong Fei, this orc.

These tasks, whether picking rosebuds or carrying large quantities of rosebuds, will get your clothes dirty and your fingers stained with soil.

However, it must be said that Rong Fei's help saved her a lot of effort.

These days, Rong Fei is the one who pleases her the most.

It was very comfortable getting along with her, and I often helped her out, even though these were things they should have done anyway, since everyone would be drinking the nutrients she extracted.

Overall, though, we got along very well.

I just don't know if she's being two-faced. After all, they get along the best, which means Rong Fei has the best chance to poison her.

Jiang Mian noticed that his white shirt and pants were all dirty, so she casually said, "You'll be washing clothes for a long time today, won't you?"

"No," Rong Fei replied casually, "I throw away clothes I've only worn for a day."

Jiang Mian:?
Where does a beast slave get so many clothes to change into? And he wears white, gray, or silver every day, it seems like he wears almost the same thing every day, there's no difference.

And isn't it too wasteful to throw away clothes you wear every day?

"Do you have that many clothes?" Jiang Mian's lips twitched slightly.

“There are still ten thousand items inside the Hub Ring,” Rong Fei said casually.

Research on folded space has matured in the interstellar era.

As a result, a type of spatial ring or spatial necklace appeared on the market, which is basically a convenient storage space, existing in various forms.

"Oh, I see." Jiang Mian paused, but still muttered softly, "It's still a waste..."

365 days a year, and you throw away 356 pieces of clothing a year?

Rong Fei glanced at Jiang Mian seemingly unintentionally, then casually looked away and slowly said, "Clothes are recycled and stored just like trash, there's no difference. Just like you take a shower every day, do you feel like you're wasting water?"

"So you think the value of clothes is about the same as the value of water?" Jiang Mian's eyes flickered slightly, as if she said unintentionally, "Then this value system must be built up from countless star coins."

Only when you have everything you need, or even more than you can use, will you feel that something has depreciated and is worthless.

Jiang Mian suspected that he was very rich.

But how did he get his money, given that he was a lowly orc in interstellar society?
Moreover, as a beast slave, his Star Coin account was linked to hers, so she could use it at will.

Jiang Mian had checked the original owner's personal terminal. Apart from Chi Lin's account having a few days of income from borderline live streaming, the other people's accounts had zero income.

The original owner's account also contained only a few coins.

Do they have their own Star Coin accounts? But everyone's account is a real-name account.
