Transmigrated into a pitiful pregnant woman, she is pampered by interstellar tycoons.

"Sir, I'm sorry, we couldn't find the shop owner's coordinates."

Qin Xiulin raised his gaze from the personal terminal on his wrist and swept it over Zhou Rui, who looked guilty.

He sighed inwardly.

"We still need to see more of the outside world."

After saying that, he projected the live stream from his personal computer onto the screen in front of him in mid-air.

The scene shows a large expanse of green leaves swaying in the wind, and you can almost smell the fresh scent in the air.

Zhou Rui couldn't maintain his composure; his jaw almost dropped.

"This, this is..."

Qin Xiulin chuckled, "Looks like they got wind of it and changed their approach."

His sword-like eyebrows rose, and his deep eyes narrowed, carrying a hint of mockery.

"You've made too much noise."

Although his tone was calm and indifferent, the chill in his voice was sharp as a blade.

It was so sharp it made your bones tremble.

Zhou Rui felt very guilty. He hadn't even completed such a simple task on the battlefield. He was truly ashamed!

"Then I'll go find someone to crack their signal now!"

The man in the seat gave a soft "hmm," indicating he understood, and immediately turned and left.

Without giving anyone else a second glance, Qin Xiulin focused all his attention on the live stream in front of him.

The scene in this live stream looks strangely familiar.

His memory wasn't bad; although there were many plants, the surrounding tin-roofed houses were so familiar.

Isn't this the place where that woman rescued him before?

Although the faces in the live stream were blurred, he remembered the voice very well.

The girl's voice was youthful and innocent, with a touch of coquettishness and an unripe, soft sweetness.

Despite her seemingly innocent and pitiful appearance, she possesses a captivating voice that makes one immediately suspect her ulterior motives.

So it wasn't unreasonable for him to suspect her at the time.

I've seen far too many people using this weak-guy persona to deceive others.

He never expected that after searching for so long, he would not find the plant even though it was right under his nose.

She kept it a secret so well.

Suddenly, he let out a cold laugh, tinged with self-mockery.

Isn't it also because he was too arrogant?

I don't know if it's too late to apologize now.

On second thought, for the sake of these precious plants and for the sake of saving the future of the galaxy, he should try his best to penetrate into her interior.

He opened the shop owner's private message, edited the message, and sent it over.

[Qin: Hello, boss. I received your help before, but I haven't had a chance to properly thank you. I hope to establish a cooperation with you. I am willing to purchase the products you have listed at a high price. I look forward to your reply.]

Although he used his own private account without official verification, his account still had verification records marked in bright red.

At least she's selling goods via livestream, so she's bound to do business and wouldn't neglect such a big customer like him!

But no matter how much he planned, he overlooked one thing: since Ruan Mian had the plants in her possession, why would she have to worry about selling them?

Those with foresight and those without, as if they had smelled something, all swarmed in.

All sorts of private messages and desires flooded into Ruan Mian's backstage.

Even if she had several days and nights to spare, let alone the fact that he's currently live streaming and doesn't have time to watch, she still might not be able to keep up with the viewing.

There are too many, far too many, to read them all.

At this moment, Ruan Mian was concentrating on washing the tomatoes in the basin.

Each tomato was shimmering in the clear water, its red color almost unreal.

The red wasn't quite a true red; it had a subtle reddish-orange tinge, and even a hint of yellow.

It's not something that can be projected virtually.

Because very few interstellar people have ever seen a real tomato, and the information about the botanical encyclopedia is in the hands of the upper-class elites.

This was truly an eye-opener for everyone.

【How can tomatoes be so beautiful?】

[Waaaaaah, art is simply art!]

[I almost don't want to eat them! Can the owner sell them?]

[I strongly insist on buying it too! I want to buy it too!!!]

Aren't you guys overthinking it? We can't even get our hands on boxed lunches, do you think you'll be able to just because they have tomatoes?

[That makes it even more pathetic!!!]

[Ketchup, it's so delicious, but why are there so many people? It's impossible to get any, waaaaah...]

Is it really that incredible? Are you all shills?

【Oh yeah, yeah, we're all shills. Ten Star Coins each, please don't buy, thank you.】

Bro, I want to earn some too, count me in!

[None of you should buy this! Anyone who does is a fool!]

……

"Next, I'm going to start making the tomato sauce."

Ruan Mian generously showed everyone the process of making tomato sauce.

Scald the tomatoes with hot water to remove their skins, then crush them and simmer them in the already fragrant oil.

Finally, add the white sugar.

Huo Junze was incredibly efficient; he created the machine using only a batch of sugarcane and brought with him the first batch of white sugar produced.

This is the difference between ordinary people and smart people.

"This white sugar is also extracted from plants; it's made from sugarcane juice, which can be made from sugar beets—all very good crops!"

His hands didn't stop moving, and he kept explaining things to everyone.

Everyone watching the live stream was amused.

[It's obvious the streamer really wants to teach me how to make ketchup.]

First, you need tomatoes; second, you need white sugar.

Finally, you need the hands of a live streamer.

If it were me, I wouldn't dare touch any of these things even if they were given to me.

[Good heavens, those are plants!]

If I were given even a single leaf, I'd frame it, it'd be a family heirloom! I wouldn't dare touch it, absolutely not!

[You guys are just too timid and hesitant. I wouldn't do that. If you don't believe me, ask the streamer to show me two leaves!]

I only dared to ask for one piece, and you're asking for two? You really have wild ideas.

You guys have been inhaling too much fog, haven't you? Your brains aren't clear yet!

Ugh, I don't want anything else, I just want to eat, eat, eat...

Interstellar Academy

Recently, seven or eight students have gone missing without explanation, including three students from relatively well-off families.

The entire academy was placed under martial law for a time.

No one is allowed to leave the school; they are to be investigated.

The parents were relentless in demanding an explanation, and the interstellar police intervened, but found no evidence.

If anyone's to blame, it's because they did everything so meticulously to clear themselves of suspicion and avoid being implicated in Lu Yi's death.

Who would have thought that being killed in the process would actually benefit him?

Not to mention that Lu Yi wasn't afraid at all, even if the investigation really found him, he had a way to get away with it.

He was simply giving them a taste of their own medicine.

"Brother Lu! Brother Lu, big news! Look what this is!"
