Interstellar travel, a beloved companion, a magnificent and turbulent otherworld.

After a pause, Bei Gongxun'er heard the words she least wanted to hear from her brother:

"Moreover, besides His Highness the Crown Prince, Mo Li, who is pregnant with her second child and possibly multiple pregnancies, is also in that private room. So she has exclusive privileges, without a doubt!"

hear the words

Bei Gongxun'er curled her lips unhappily, a hint of jealousy flashing in her eyes: "Hmph, she's just relying on her belly."

What she didn't realize was that as she said those words, the men who usually showed her great affection subtly glanced over her flat stomach, their eyes flashing with disdain.

A belly, you know, with a belly like Mo Li's, she could enjoy supreme privileges in the interstellar space. Besides, she gave birth to quintuplets at once.

The second child she's carrying is also a multiple pregnancy. A belly like that would be the envy of countless women in the galaxy, something they dream of having. But in Bei Gongxun'er's words, it's become...

Such a naive and ignorant person is truly despicable, and unworthy of her status as the most valued young lady of the Beigong family.

the other side

Mo Li was unaware of what had happened in Bei Gongxun'er's private room; she had just received the special food provided by the auction.

Seeing the food placed in front of her, she subconsciously looked at the Emperor. She had to admit that his efficiency was incredibly high. Judging from the quality of the food and the fact that it contained almost no violent factors, the speed at which he sent the Seven-Colored Purification Flower to the Central Empire's Botanical Research Institute for cultivation and distribution was extremely fast.

Every dish was exquisitely prepared, and both the plating and the food itself were pleasing to the eye. The contributions of the food streamers on StarCraft deserve much credit for this.

Even though natural ingredients are still scarce, they have already learned to use limited ingredients to create delicious and exquisite food.

Noticing her gaze, Dongfang Yu selected a piece of gentle meat that suited her usual taste and handed it to her: "Ali, have a taste."

"it is good."

Then he turned to look at the two siblings, Long Ze and Long Ran: "Don't be shy, have a taste too. It looks like it tastes pretty good."

As long as they are interstellar people, regardless of their status, they all have a natural desire for food cooked with natural ingredients. They are not pretentious people. They have been in the private room for so long. If they were to say anything more insincere or polite, it would really seem petty and pretentious.

So they simply smiled back and picked up a piece of pastry that they thought was pretty good to try.

"The taste is indeed good, sweet but not cloying."

"As expected of a special supply, it has a strong locust blossom fragrance when you eat it."

Mo Li also tasted it, but the quality of the pastry was only so-so to her. As for the floral fragrance, it was indeed there; she tasted rose. However, it was still far inferior to the fresh flower cakes she made herself or those made by robots in her kitchen.

She didn't show her feelings, but smiled slightly and said, "The taste is indeed quite good."

She tried everything else as well. Since she was already there, she figured she might as well try things out and maybe even learn something from them.

Time passed in this leisurely and contented atmosphere.

The highly anticipated auction has officially begun:

The first item to be auctioned surprised everyone!

When they saw it, some of the participants today became restless.

"Huh? What's going on? Can someone tell me if I'm seeing things? What's going on? Isn't the auction at the end of each year supposed to be of a very high standard, with every item being a rare treasure?"

"Disappointing. To be honest, I'm speechless when I see this ordinary, unremarkable stone. Is this supposed to be a joke?"

"Is this auction, jointly organized by the Five Great Empires Exchange Association, really this lackluster now? It's made me lose all expectations for the remaining items."

"Haha, this is hilarious! Are you kidding me? Are you kidding me? A blind stone? The first item up for auction is a blind stone! If this were at a regular auction, I wouldn't say anything, but you bring this here? I just have to say, is this all..."

"I'm not going to gamble on the odds here. There are so many other blind stone auction sites out there. Besides, this one doesn't look like it's worth the price. I'm not going to look anymore. I'll wait for the next item. I hope it won't disappoint me again."

"Tch, is that all? Is this what I'm looking forward to being alone?"

"Could there be something magical about this blind stone? That shouldn't be the case. For thousands of years, since the first blind stone was discovered, no matter what method we use, we have been unable to break through its outer barrier and see what's inside. It's absolutely impossible to discover anything in advance."

"Blind Stone, that's hilarious. Even a three-year-old in the interstellar world knows that eight out of ten of these are just ordinary stones. Even if the remaining two are rare treasures, who would dare touch them unless they have a huge fortune and a lot of luck?"

"I can't do it. I'd feel bad even spending a thousand interstellar coins on Blind Stone, because I know it's a waste of money."

Only Mo Li's eyes lit up the moment she saw the blind stone. At the same time, she could clearly feel the joy of her unborn babies. She placed her hand on her swollen belly, her gaze as gentle as water, her voice soft:

"What, you've discovered it's a great thing? It's really amazing! You're such good kids, Mommy will definitely buy it for you since you like it."

When Long Ze and Long Ran heard her words, they didn't find anything unusual. Instead, they kindly reminded her: "Be more cautious!" After all, there's a saying about blind stones: "Nine out of ten stones are empty." This isn't just empty talk; it's based on real statistics.

Even though they knew that Mo Li and Di Jue were not short of interstellar coins, how could they possibly care about the amount of interstellar coins when they came to this auction?

But I still don't want her to actually become a sucker!

"Thank you. I'm just here to join in the fun at this auction. What I bid on depends on my mood and what I like. I just thought this stone had a rather unique shape."

Long Ze: "..."

Long Ran: "......"

The two siblings exchanged a glance in the air, their lips twitching involuntarily, and they took another look at the ordinary, unremarkable stone.

Please forgive their poor eyesight.

I honestly don't see anything special about its design.

Not to mention comparing it to other stones, even if you just throw it on the street, people would probably kick it and find it annoying because it's blocking their way.

Di Jue, Dongfang Yu, and Guan Yunzhou had subtle smiles in their eyes. When they looked at the stone again, it suddenly seemed a little more pleasing to the eye.
