"Hiss~, so spicy," Xize kept pouring water into his mouth, trying to get rid of the spiciness, but with little effect.

Xia Qingqing quickly took out a few bottles of cola from the system warehouse, opened one and handed it to him: "Try this one."

Xize took a big gulp, the icy and stimulating sensation spreading in his mouth, making him feel as if his entire soul had been elevated.

"What is this? It tastes good," Xize praised with great interest.

"Our local name is cola, but you can also call it 'happy water'," Xia Qingqing said with a smile.

Xize's eyes lit up: "Happy Water? That's a really fitting name. It's really nice to drink such a delicious beverage."

"Marshal, you should try it too, it's really good."

Morris took the cola but didn't drink it directly. Instead, he held it under his nose and smelled it. A sweet, cloying aroma filled his nostrils.

He tilted his head back and took a sip, then subconsciously frowned: "It doesn't taste good."

"Ah, how could it not taste good? I think it tastes great," Xize said, taking another big gulp and letting out a comfortable burp, which was quite impolite for the adjutant who was usually very conscious of his image.

Fortunately, there are no outsiders present, so he doesn't have to maintain his image all the time.

Xia Qingqing said knowingly, "Not everyone likes to drink cola. I have other drinks here. Marshal, please see which one you like."

She brought out seven or eight kinds of drinks for Morris to choose from, and in the end, Morris actually liked coconut milk the most, which created an adorable contrast with his dignified and handsome appearance.

The three of them devoured every last dish on the table, leaving not a single vegetable leaf behind.

Xize slumped back in his chair, looking blissful: "This is amazing! I never knew there was such delicious food in the world."

Xia Qingqing immediately understood what he meant: "If you like to eat, I'll get you two cases of hot pot seasoning, and two cases of hot pot dipping sauce too."

"Thanks, then I won't be polite," Xize said contentedly.

Morris asked seriously, "And what about me?"

"Ah," Xia Qingqing was stunned for a moment. She thought that Morris had implicitly agreed that he was with Xize.

But since Morris brought it up separately, she couldn't very well not respond, especially since she had just spent a large sum of his interstellar currency yesterday.

He tentatively asked, "How about we give the Marshal four boxes?"

"Hmm," Morris nodded in satisfaction, a slight smile playing on his lips.

Xize had no complaints; after all, the Marshal would definitely invite him to join him when he ate hot pot.

Oh, and remember to take a packet to the research institute tomorrow and ask them to figure out the formula so we can eat it whenever we want.

......

After finishing the hotpot, Xia Qingqing went back to her room.

The first thing I did was lie down on the soft, comfortable sofa. I originally wanted to take out my tablet to watch a TV series, but then I suddenly remembered that I now have a personal computer, so I immediately tossed the tablet aside.

Xia Qingqing turned on her personal terminal and saw the message sent by Glek.

Glek: [Qingqing, has the Marshal prepared your identity card? That's great!]

Glek: [I'll be quite busy for the next few days, so I might not be able to visit you.]

Glek: [By the way, I'll transfer you Star Coins. You can buy things directly on the Star Network if you don't want to go out.]

Xia Qingqing opened her interstellar currency account and saw that she had five million interstellar coins in it.

She raised an eyebrow, remembering that going out with Glake yesterday cost at least one or two million, so Glake must have paid for it out of his own pocket.

Xia Qingqing didn't say no. Only a fool would refuse money, especially since she was planning to stay here for several months.

After thinking about it, I sent a message to Glek.

Xia Qingqing: [Received. Go ahead and do what you need to do, don't worry about me.]

The message went unanswered; it seems Glek is currently unavailable.

She didn't care and simply closed the chat window.

She discovered yesterday while out shopping that there are celebrities in interstellar space, so there must be movies and TV series. She was very curious about the differences between interstellar TV series and modern ones.

Thinking of Maureen, whom she had seen yesterday, she searched for her on the StarNet and sure enough, a lot of information about her popped up.

I chose a movie that the other person had recently made, switched to projection mode, and lay down on the sofa to watch it.

This is a romance film with a military theme. The male and female leads are both outstanding students at a military academy. They often secretly competed with each other during their university years, but over time, they developed a mutual respect and appreciation for one another.

After graduation, the two joined the army together. Just when the male protagonist realized his feelings and wanted to confess, the insectoid race suddenly attacked, and the male protagonist and the female protagonist went to the battlefield together.

In the end, the male protagonist died in the battle to protect the female protagonist. Before he died, he told her how he felt about himself.

The female lead burst into tears, because she had actually fallen in love with the male lead a long time ago, and she had worked so hard because she wanted to be worthy of him, hoping to meet the person she loved at the top.

But she never expected that when she finally became good enough to attract the other party's attention, the other party would regard her as a competitor and secretly compete with her in every aspect.

It took the female lead a long time to mentally prepare herself before accepting the fact that the male lead didn't like her, and she planned to bury her feelings forever in her heart.

It turned out that after she gave up, she learned that the boy she liked also liked her. Tragically, the boy left her forever the next second.

When her beloved died, her heart died with her.

In the years that followed, the female protagonist never fell in love with anyone else. She dedicated her entire youth to the military and became the first female general in history.

Perhaps because everyone in the interstellar world is generally good-looking, the entire movie, from the main characters to the extras, is remarkably good-looking, leaving Xia Qingqing completely overwhelmed by the sights.

To be fair, people who become big stars do have some talent, and Maureen's acting skills are indeed quite good.

To Xia Qingqing's surprise, a tipping interface popped up after the movie ended, allowing her to tip the characters in the movie according to her personal preferences.

Xia Qingqing raised her hand and made a few gestures on the interface, giving the female lead, Mo Lin, 100,000 Star Coins as a reward, the male lead 10,000, and other supporting characters she remembered as rewards ranging from several thousand.

Money talks!

Just as Xia Qingqing was about to log out of the computer, she received a friend request.

It turned out to be Maureen, the female lead of the movie she had just seen. She subconsciously raised her hand and clicked "accept," and the next second the other party sent a message.

Maureen: [Thank you so much for supporting my movie, my darling! Could you please give me the link? There's a little surprise for you~]
