Quick Transmigration: Saving That Cannon Fodder

PS: (Interstellar, using food to lure Jade Cat while watching the stars.)

"Wow, Xingxing is so handsome! I love him so much, meow~"

Inside the opulent villa, several kittens sat lazily on a large sofa, their eyes glued to the live stream screen in front of them.

A servant brought over tea, snacks, and small treats.

Xuan Zijin licked his golden fur and said, "Are you sure what you like isn't the braised pork that Chi Xing is about to make?"

"Hehehe, I wish I could eat braised pork."

Xuan Ziyin, with his silver-gray fur, stared at the screen, fantasizing about when he could taste braised pork, his mouth practically watering.

Xuan Ziyu, with his fluffy white fur, twitched his pink and white ears and widened his watery blue eyes, staring intently at the man on the screen.

The man, wearing an apron, had many dishes laid out on the cutting board. With skillful knife work, he expertly cut a piece of pork belly into equally sized cubes.

"Ahhh, I love him! Butler, three minutes! I need all his information!"

A young man in a suit and tie walked over with a smile and said respectfully, "Young Master, it is forbidden to illegally obtain other people's information in interstellar space."

Her snow-white cat ears drooped instantly: "Waaah, he's so handsome, I like him so much..."

"Illegal methods won't work, so let's find a legal channel," suggested the assistant butler.

"Hahaha, young master, the people who do live streaming love the top-ranked fan the most. Once you become the top-ranked fan, it's easy to get his contact information and you can chat with him."

"Hehe, that makes sense."

Xuan Ziyu used his personal terminal to open Chi Xing's live stream room and then showered the room with gifts.

His two older brothers stared at him, and Xuan Zijin said, "Are you serious? Those are the wicked humans."

Xuan Ziyin added to his elder brother's words: "Humans are bad; they kidnap kittens and eat them."

Xuan Ziyu's claws stopped, his heart pounding, but Chi Xing was really, really handsome, the most handsome human he had ever seen.

He said dejectedly, "I'll just wait and see. We don't even know which planet he's on, but we can chat online, right?"

On the desolate planet B011, the midday sun shines brightly, but everywhere you look is barren.

Within a radius of a hundred miles, there were only ruins and weeds; the visible area was devoid of life, let alone any living creatures.

There was only one dilapidated two-story building on the plain. Green vines climbed up the back of the building, and from a distance, they looked like cracks in the building. It looked eerie no matter how you looked at it.

The little black cat was lazily sunbathing at the entrance of the small building. Feeling hot, it stepped into the building.

In the open kitchen that occupied half of the living room, Akahoshi's clear voice rang out:

"Smell sharing and taste sharing are now available. Everyone, please try this braised pork."

Akahoshi seemed oblivious to the gift effects flashing across the screen and continued preparing the next dish, braised eggplant.

The number of viewers on the live stream rose to 20,000, many of whom were criticizing him.

But after tasting the dishes he had just made, those people suddenly couldn't bring themselves to curse him anymore.

—What's going on? Did Akahoshi make this dish?

—Just came from Nuoer's live stream. My Nuoer's cooking is the best.

—Exactly, how can Akahoshi still have the nerve to do live streams? Wasn't he suffering from depression recently? Is he just lying to gain sympathy?

—Definitely. They always liked to ride on my Nuonuo's popularity. Even after being exposed for plagiarism, they refused to admit it. They deserved to be kicked out of the Ruan family.

Why are people still sending him gifts? Could he be an actor?

—Wait a minute, you guys should try Akahoshi's braised pork. It smells so good and tastes so delicious. It's a pity we can only share it and not actually eat it, sob sob X﹏X.

—Ahhh, this is so delicious! I was so focused on enjoying it that I forgot to talk back to the haters.

—Can some people's fans please stay away from Xingxing's live stream?

—It's so annoying, there are Ruan Nuoer's fans everywhere. They haven't had enough of arguing with other food bloggers, and now they're coming to Xingxing's live stream.

—Poor Xingxing, she's sick and has to work while being scolded.

"These are just a few home-style dishes. You can make them at home if you buy the ingredients."

Ignoring the insults, Akahoshi gently answered a few questions from the audience.

—Plagiarism monster, plagiarism monster, plagiarism monster! You do whatever Ruan Nuoer does, you're shameless.

"After the oil is hot, add the eggplant cut into chunks and stir-fry slowly until golden brown."

As Akahoshi spoke, he started to stir-fry the eggplant in the pan. There wasn't too much oil in the pan, and it sizzled as he stirred it.

"Next, add the prepared minced garlic and chopped chili peppers. If you don't like spicy food, you can add less."

After stirring it a few more times, Akahoshi took out a small bowl.

"You can prepare the sauce before you start cooking."

"Two tablespoons of light soy sauce, one tablespoon of dark soy sauce, one tablespoon of oyster sauce, half a tablespoon of white sugar, one tablespoon of cornstarch, and half a bowl of water. Stir well."

—Wait, wait, wait, there are two kinds of soy sauce? I thought soy sauce was just soy sauce.

—No, no, is Akahoshi teaching us how to make this dish? Oh my god.

—You read that right, he actually tried to teach me how to cook.

—Isn't this some kind of secret recipe? How can you get these dishes without going to a restaurant? Waaah, Xingxing, what's wrong with you? Are you not going to open a shop anymore?

Akahoshi casually poured the sauce into the pot, stirred it a couple of times, and continued cooking.

Seeing these questions, I couldn't help but chuckle: "Yes, I teach everyone how to cook. Food is meant to be shared, and I will share my cooking recipes every day."

—Ah, it smells so good! I feel like Xingxing's cooking skills have improved a lot.

—Is this braised eggplant? It smells even better than the one Ruan Nuo'er made yesterday.

—He's starting to brag again. He stole Nuo'er's recipe, so of course he can make it too.

—No, it really does smell better than what Ruan Nuo'er makes.

—I've already taken out my nutrient solution. Waaah, who invented this awful-tasting nutrient solution? I want to eat braised pork and braised eggplant.

"Haha, cook until the eggplant is soft and tender, then it's ready to serve. Sprinkle with chopped green onions and it's ready to eat."

Akahoshi placed the eggplant in a white porcelain plate. The braised pork looked tempting, and the braised eggplant was tender, fragrant, and spicy.

There was already a small bowl of braised pork on the side, meant for the audience to share, and now there was an extra small bowl of braised eggplant.

Sharing doesn't mean you can actually eat it; there were many more comments than before, and the number of viewers in the live stream was also increasing.

—I'm so hungry, I could smell this as soon as I entered the live stream.

—This smells so good, why can't I have any?!

—I can't be a rich person, I can't even get a meal, sob sob.

Akahoshi glanced at the comments; the top-ranked fan was showering him with gifts endlessly. But when he saw the cat avatar, a smile crept onto his lips.

After rinsing the pot, Akahoshi cooked a vegetable and egg drop soup, and that was it for today's meal.

He scooped out a bowl of rice, turned it upside down on a plate, added a large spoonful of braised pork and a large spoonful of braised eggplant, and poured the white rice over the tempting sauce, making it very appetizing.

A bowl of refreshing vegetable soup was placed next to it; taking a sip after the meal was simply divine.

The barrage was boiling again.
