After Qi Xiuyuan had arranged everything, he looked at Lu Manman carefully and said earnestly, "Thank you. You are very good, unlike other women."

Qi Xiuyuan did not miss the hesitation in the woman's eyes, but after hesitating, she still carefully told him the hiding place of dark matter.

She was clearly afraid that he wouldn't let her go, but for everyone's safety, she still risked everything to tell him. Qi Xiuyuan was truly impressed by her.

Lu Manman touched her nose. "It's nothing. I'm just naturally very sensitive to the nose. I never thought it would help you. I hope you'll keep your word and send me to a nearby prosperous planet. I'll give you all the fruit I have then."

"good!"

Qi Xiuyuan readily agreed, as he really needed the fruit. He immediately took Lu Manman aboard the spaceship and flew out of the base.

The base was a small planet with a poor environment. Lu Manman subconsciously raised her hand to check the location, but then remembered that she didn't have a personal terminal.

Seeing this, Qi Xiuyuan said, "What do you want to know? I can tell you."

Lu Manman shook her head, not wanting to say more; the more she said, the more mistakes she would make.

Qi Xiuyuan didn't press further, but felt that the woman in front of him was very different from the women he had met before. Most of the women he had met before were arrogant and condescending, but the woman in front of him was more guarded. He wondered what she had been through.

If I had to choose a woman to be my partner, someone like her might be a good choice.

Thinking this, Qi Xiuyuan looked at Lu Manman and asked, "What do you think about me being your partner?"

Lu Manman, who was drinking water, choked and coughed. "Cough cough! What did you just say?"

Qi Xiuyuan looked directly into Lu Manman's eyes and said, "I want to be your partner."

Lu Manman took a step back in alarm. "Is it really that casual? We've only known each other for a short time."

What Lu Manman didn't know was that blind date banquets were much more casual and direct than this.

Qi Xiuyuan switched the spaceship to autopilot mode and walked towards Lu Manman, saying seriously, "Your appearance is very good, which matches my aesthetic. Your fertility is also very good, which can allow me to have a natural child. It seems that your ability and luck are also good. Moreover, your personality is also very good. You have saved many people. If I could become your partner, I would be very happy."

Is this a marriage proposal? They've laid their agenda bare, practically throwing the abacus beads at her face, but the person in front of her is so honest that Lu Manman can't feel any disgust.

Lu Manman coughed lightly, "Sorry, I'm not thinking about having a partner right now."

“Alright! When you’re considering it, you can give me priority. My name is Qi Xiuyuan, I’m thirty years old, and I’m currently an Imperial Marshal, mainly commanding the Fourth and Sixth Legions. I’m an only child, and my father, Qi Xiancheng, is the head of the Qi family. The family mainly runs…”

Watching Qi Xiuyuan earnestly introduce himself and his family, Lu Manman had the illusion that she was on a blind date, and felt inexplicably restless.

She's only eighteen, still young, no rush.

Finally, he said somewhat awkwardly, "Okay, I understand your situation. I'll give you priority consideration in the future."

"Okay!" After thinking for a moment, Qi Xiuyuan continued, "You can come to me if you encounter any problems in the future."

"Um!"

Noticing Lu Manman's unease, Qi Xiuyuan went back to piloting the spaceship, and they remained silent the entire way.

Fortunately, the spaceship soon landed in a bustling neighborhood. As the small villa drew closer, the long road felt increasingly familiar.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be the house she had lived in before.

Qi Xiuyuan explained, "The army's base is very close to Tianhe Star. You've been here before, so you should be more used to it. You'll have to make do here for a while and won't be able to come out. We'll discuss other things with you after I've dealt with my business."

Although the taste of fruit can indeed soothe the mind, it doesn't feel quite the same as before, and he needs to confirm this with her again.

The security level here was designed by him personally. Once it's opened, not only can people outside not get in, but people inside can't get out without his permission.

"Alright! Let's leave it at that."

Lu Manman accepted the arrangement calmly; she simply couldn't get out.

Qi Xiuyuan opened the spaceship door, and the gentlemanly invitation began.

Lu Manman obediently stepped out of the spaceship. As soon as she stepped out of the ship's door, Qi Xiuyuan suddenly fell backward. Lu Manman quickly caught him and looked around. Fortunately, this villa area was sparsely populated, and apart from them, she did not see anyone else around.

Lu Manman breathed a sigh of relief and smiled slightly, "If you won't let me out, then I'll just not go in."

Lu Manman tossed the Menghan grass into a potted plant on the spaceship, then helped Qi Xiuyuan into the spaceship and placed him inside.

Without any special abilities, the Menghan Grass will wither automatically after two hours, at which point Qi Xiuyuan will naturally wake up.

Lu Manman dumped all the grapes, watermelons, and cantaloupes from the spaceship, almost filling the entire vessel. This should save many people.

Satisfied, Lu Manman disembarked from the spaceship and walked away without looking back. She remembered there was a forest not far away.

After making sure the road wouldn't lead to any deep thoughts, he ran into the forest.

With his wood-based abilities, he shouldn't be able to find her in the forest.

After entering the forest, Lu Manman went straight to the place with the most lush vegetation, plunging into it and walking forward. During this time, Lu Manman kept her whole body wrapped in wood-type superpowers.

The grass and trees that Lu Manman had pushed aside were immediately repaired by Lu Manman. From the outside, no one would know that someone was hiding inside, rushing about.

While rushing on her way, Lu Manman didn't forget to change her outfit and try her best to resemble Zhao Jianguo.

Finally, he took out Zhao Jianguo's chip, wrapped it with his supernatural power, and inserted it into the back of his neck.

...

Before Qi Xiuyuan could even open his eyes after waking up, he was overwhelmed by the rich fruity aroma, which made him feel like he was floating on air.

When I opened my eyes, I found the entire spaceship was filled to the brim with fruit, leaving almost no room to put my feet down.

There was far more fruit than she had initially given out. While feeling grateful to her, I couldn't help but feel annoyed that I had fallen for her trick. What could possibly make someone faint without them even realizing it?

Qi Xiuyuan became increasingly curious about the woman and immediately used his access privileges to check the nearby surveillance footage.

They discovered that he had disappeared into the forest and then there was no further news of him.

After arranging for a large number of people to search, Qi Xiuyuan left. Right now, the most important thing was the soldiers.

Qi Xiuyuan returned to his encampment with a boat full of fruit.
