Xia Sheng was taken aback for a moment when he heard her invitation, then broke into a big smile.

With her reddened eyes, glistening with moisture, she seemed both incredulous and cautiously expectant.

"Sister, can I really stay?"

What a poor kid.

He probably never received any kindness from childhood, so any act of kindness from someone is a lifeline for him!

Waaaaah, what a poor little thing!

Ruan Mian lowered her head slightly, her gaze level with his.

Speaking in the gentlest tone possible, "Well, if you don't mind that this place is rather desolate, you can stay and work for me. I'll pay you a salary according to interstellar standards every month. Of course, you can leave anytime if you don't want to work here anymore."

In StarCraft, there are basic wages, standard wages, and high standard wages. These wage levels are set for the general public.

It's already quite good that Ruan Mian is offering him a standard salary.

"Sister, I'm already so happy that you took me in and gave me a place to stay. I don't dare ask for more, really!"

This sales pitch seems familiar...

It feels like I've heard it somewhere before.

"Don't say that. I'm the one who hired you as my employee, so you'll get everything you're entitled to. Just settle in and focus on getting better!"

Xia Sheng nodded obediently, lowered his eyelashes, and concealed all his emotions, making it impossible for anyone to see him clearly.

His head gently touched her knee.

The sound was buzzing.

"Sister, thank you, thank you..."

He was so well-behaved that she couldn't resist wanting to rub his little ears again.

Thinking this way, I did it.

She reached out and gently pinched his ear.

The wolf cub's ears weren't entirely blue; they also had some silvery-white fur mixed in.

So cute!

"You're welcome. I happen to need an employee, and your arrival is a great help to me."

She gently patted his shoulder, "Okay, okay, you rest for a while, I'll go cook you something to eat."

Until her figure completely disappeared from the room and could no longer be seen.

Xia Sheng raised his reddened eyelashes, but there was no trace of tenderness in his eyes.

He was sinister and cold, completely different from a normal person.

"elder sister."

Like a 'sister' grinded between the lips and teeth, the beast locked onto its prey and let out a low laugh.

A fragrant aroma of rice filled the air.

The snow-white rice grains tumble in the boiling water, gradually becoming soft, loose, and sticky under the high temperature.

She also added finely shredded cabbage and seasoned it with only a little salt.

This pot of porridge is sweet and delicious enough.

The finest ingredients require only the simplest cooking methods.

Without any lean meat, Ruan Mian could only console herself with this phrase.

How can a simple vegetable porridge be complete without side dishes?

Just then, Xiaofang brought in a basket of potatoes, and there were also some carrots in the basket.

Stir-fry some shredded carrots and potatoes.

Finely chop the garlic, then add a few slices to the hot oil and sauté until fragrant.

Add shredded potatoes and carrots, stir-fry until cooked, then season with salt. A simple yet delicious dish of shredded carrots and potatoes is ready.

Xia Sheng had already heard the commotion next door.

After sitting for a while and regaining some strength, I left the room.

However, he was still a little surprised when he saw the steaming bowl on the table.

"Come and sit down, come and sit down."

Just then, Ruan Mian, who was carrying dishes, walked over and invited him to sit down.

The aroma of shredded carrots and potatoes that wafted over instantly captivated him.

What's this smell?

How can it smell so good?

"This is?"

It seemed he was also someone who didn't know about plants, Ruan Mian revealed a somewhat mysterious expression.

"Oh, this is delicious. Sit down and try it. See if you like it."

delicious?

Xia Sheng forced a bitter smile.

He has tasted so many delicious foods; he has eaten all sorts of strange and wonderful things.

However, most of them were forced into it.

Those people didn't fare well either.

Although the food on the table smelled delicious, he remained highly wary.

Seeing that he didn't move, Ruan Mian thought he was scared, so she quickly explained.

"Don't worry, they're all edible. I'll eat this too."

Pick up the empty bowl and start scooping porridge.

It was placed in front of him.

"Sit down and try it. If you don't like it, I'll make you something else next time."

Under her expectant gaze, Xia Sheng still picked up his chopsticks and reached into the bowl.

Seeing that he moved, Ruan Mian looked on with anticipation.

"how is it going?"

She had never seen an interstellar person dislike plants, but she still looked forward to his reply.

The thick porridge melts between your lips and teeth, releasing a subtle aroma that flows directly down your throat, carrying the sweetness of cabbage and a hint of saltiness.

It's delicious!

Xia Sheng's eyes lit up; it tasted better than any nutritional supplement he had ever taken.

"delicious!"

Hearing his answer, Ruan Mian was very satisfied and moved the shredded potatoes closer to him.

"Here, try this one."

No one can resist shredded potatoes. Although many people can't accept carrots, with potatoes leading the way, most people can accept them too.

Moreover, since it's cut so finely and the quantity is small, it doesn't significantly affect the taste.

On the contrary, it brings out the sweetness of the carrot.

This tastes even better than vegetable porridge!

"What is this? It's delicious!"

Okay, okay, she said that no interstellar human can escape the plants.

The praise made even the cook beam with joy.

"This is shredded carrots and potatoes. Eat more if you like. This is all for you. I have to go now. Take your time eating, no rush!"

Just then, Xiao Hong walked in carrying a large iron bucket.

Ruan Mian explained, "This is my lifelike dummy, Xiao Hong. I also have a female lifelike dummy, Xiao Fang, and the other male one is 917. You are the only real employee."

She already had so many lifelike figures, so she shouldn't be short of manpower, but she still specifically hired him as an employee.

It was just an excuse to make him feel at ease and stay there!

What a kind person!

But in this world, where are there people who are kind for no reason?!

Masks can't be worn for long.

"Okay, sister, I understand. I'll work hard!"

Ruan Mian just smiled and said, "Don't think too much about it. Focus on getting better first!"

She was genuinely afraid that her little arms and legs might break if she wasn't careful.

"Is everything washed clean?" Her attention was drawn to 917 as he entered, her gaze falling on the basket in his hands.

It was filled with freshly dug sweet potatoes.

Each one was big and plump.

The purple skin looks delicious!

917 shook his head; the sweet potatoes still had black soil on them.

"These feeds for the pigs need to be washed thoroughly!"
