Chapter 1: Traveling through time and being asked to pay rent

Desolate Planet DQ008.

Su Yue woke up to a shrill noise, and memories that did not belong to her flashed through her mind like a kaleidoscope.

She actually traveled through time.

Escaped from that despairing apocalypse and came to the interstellar age?

Although it is the interstellar age, she is on a desolate planet with backward technology...

"Get out of here, you idiot!"

"Su Yue, don't think that I don't know you're hiding in there!"

"What's the point of letting a fool block the door?! If you don't pay the rent today, get out of here!" A sharp voice came from the door, piercing Su Yue's eardrums.

"Yue-YueYue is not at home. You-you go away!" a timid voice came.

A handsome face immediately appeared in Su Yue's mind.

The person outside is her elder brother Su Yi.

"Whether it's there or not, I'll go in and take a look and we'll know! Get out of here, you fool!" The woman outside the door raised her voice.

Then, Su Yue heard a series of ghostly howling sounds.

"Ouch! How dare you lay hands on me, you idiot!"

"Just wait, I'll go to the police station and file a complaint! I'll kick you out of the safe zone!"

Su Yue's expression changed.

"Wait——" he said quickly.

The two people at the door were startled.

The landlady, Aunt Zhu, immediately got up from the ground, pushed Su Yi away, and rushed into the house.

Su Yi didn't react for a moment and was actually pushed away by Aunt Zhu.

It was too late to stop it, so he could only chase after Aunt Zhu to prevent this bad lady from hurting his sister.

"Okay! Su Yue, you bastard, you are in the room!" Aunt Zhu came to Su Yue's bed, rolled up her sleeves, and looked like she was ready to fight. The sound of her voice made Su Yue's eardrums hurt even more.

Su Yi dodged and stood in front of the bed, completely shielding Su Yue.

"You are not allowed to hurt Yueyue! Be careful, I - I will beat you!" Su Yi clenched his fist and raised it at Aunt Zhu.

A hint of fear flashed across Aunt Zhu's eyes.

I thought of something, but instead of retreating, I moved forward.

"Alright! You don't pay the rent and you want to beat me up! Go ahead and beat me up! If you dare to beat me up, I'll call the police right away and have the Sheriff's Department throw you out of the safe zone!"

"You——" Su Yi was so angry that his teeth were itching, and he was ready to take action immediately.

At this moment, the person on the bed grabbed his clothes.

"Brother, don't--" It was Su Yue who had already sat up.

Su Yi quickly turned around and squatted down to check on Su Yue's condition.

"Yueyue - wuwu... Yueyue, are you okay? She - she is so fierce..." Seeing his sister wake up, Su Yi cried.

"Tsk——" Aunt Zhu on the side rolled her eyes.

Su Yue gave Aunt Zhu a sharp look, which made her heart tremble.

"I'm fine. Don't be afraid, brother..." Su Yue reached out and patted Su Yi's shoulder, comforting him softly.

Aunt Zhu, who was standing by, came to her senses and immediately prepared to turn on the loudspeaker to continue scolding Su Yue and urging him to pay the rent.

Su Yue spoke first.

"Here's to you. It's enough to cover our rent for four months."

Su Yue handed over a bracelet with two pearls.

This was the only jewelry she had left on her body, given to her by the scumbag who had an affair with her stepsister and framed her and her elder brother and exiled them to the deserted planet.

The predecessor had always held on to hope and refused to sell the bracelet.

Now she just felt that this thing was disgusting.

Aunt Zhu's eyes warmed up.

She had been jealous of this bracelet for a long time. An exiled criminal actually had such a fine thing on his hand.

So, Aunt Zhu quickly snatched the bracelet away.

"How can a broken bracelet be enough to cover four months' rent? It's no big deal for me to give you one thousand star coins! You still owe me one thousand two hundred star coins!" Aunt Zhu looked at the bracelet greedily, and said viciously to the brother and sister.

Su Yue frowned.

"Come again——" He reached out directly to Aunt Zhu.

Aunt Zhu was stunned.

Immediately hide the bracelet behind your back.

Su Yue was speechless.

"Either you pay four months' rent as I say, or my brother and I will go to the pawn shop. Even if this bracelet can't be pawned for three thousand star coins, it must be worth more than two thousand. I'll pay you back when I get the money."

How could Aunt Zhu be happy?

"Hey, is it worth the effort?!"

"Alright! Four months is four months!"

"But we have a deal. You have to pay the next rent in advance, at the beginning of the month! Otherwise, don't blame me for kicking you out!" She didn't believe that these two poor guys had anything to sell.

Su Yue breathed a sigh of relief.

"Can."

Aunt Zhu was stunned for a moment.

I didn't expect Su Yue to be so straightforward.

But she didn't care. After taking one look at the brother and sister, she left.

As soon as Aunt Zhu left, the room suddenly became quiet.

"Yueyue--" Su Yi raised his head and looked at Su Yue pitifully.

Su Yue gave a gentle smile.

"Brother, help me up first."

"Oh." Su Yi responded and quickly helped Su Yue get out of bed.

Su Yue felt a little dizzy and knew it was because he was hungry.

After letting Su Yi help him to the table, he took out a can of beef and four packs of instant noodles from the space.

Su Yi was extremely shocked.

"Read—read."

Su Yue raised his hand and shook a silver ring on his hand at Su Yi.

"This is the space ring I hid ahead of time. There are some supplies inside."

"There's nothing to eat at home right now, so let's make do with it first."

In the interstellar age, technology is highly advanced and space folding technology has been developed. Space rings do exist.

However, the space ring is very expensive and ordinary people simply cannot afford it.

The Su family could barely be considered a second-class noble family on the Imperial Star. She had a space ring before the accident.

Although the size of the space is only one cubic meter, the price in the official mall is as high as 500,000 star coins.

Of course she couldn't keep such a valuable thing.

After the incident, her stepsister stole her space ring and the valuables inside in the name of searching for evidence.

The only thing of value that my predecessor managed to leave behind was the bracelet.

The ring on her hand was not a real space ring, but an ordinary silver ring in her space.

She is a dual-system psychic, possessing both spatial and purification abilities.

As she traveled through time, her two special powers also came along, including the things in her space.

Unfortunately, after ten years in the apocalypse, the supplies she had stored in her space were almost gone, and they were only enough to sustain her and her eldest brother for a few more days.

"Hmm!" Su Yi's current IQ is only that of a six-year-old, and he didn't think much about it.

Su Yue smiled.

He ordered Su Yi to open the can and then went to get hot water to make instant noodles.

The meal tonight was sumptuous, even luxurious.

But she had to do so because she had a baby in her belly.

Only if she eats well tonight and tries to restore her spirit, she can go out of the city with her elder brother tomorrow to look for a chance of survival.

After all, she was pregnant with a baby who was four months old.

More than four months ago, my eldest brother had an accident on the front line and was sent back to the Imperial Star in a coma. He was then accused of being a deserter.
