Zhou Siyu has never been one to rush through life. Instead, she led the group on a leisurely journey, enjoying the diverse landscapes of different planets.

However, due to the vehicle's excellent performance, the group arrived at the eighteenth planet several days ahead of schedule.

"To be honest, this is my first time here."

Qin Ge opened the sunroof and spread his arms, just wanting to feel the sweet breeze, when a cloud of black smoke filled his mouth and nose.

"Cough cough cough... Damn it! Close the window right now!"

The people in the car all stared at Qin Ge in unison. Qin Ge awkwardly sat back down, spitting out the black ash in his mouth: "Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey... What the hell is this! Wasn't the scenery on the eighteenth planet supposed to be beautiful?"

Yu Zhen took out a wet wipe and handed it to him, covering her mouth and laughing: "This place is very close to the mining area, and it's downwind, so there's naturally a lot of dust. It'll be fine after this part."

Planet 18 is rich in a rare substance buried about 500 meters underground, which is an important raw material for manufacturing advanced weapons.

Three years ago, a war broke out on the eighteenth planet. After the war was quelled, the army naturally moved in. In addition, since the function of the substance was not yet known at that time, the Zhou family sold the mining rights of the eighteenth planet to the Yu family.

Logically, this place should have been managed by Yu Wei, but unfortunately Yu Wei had an accident, and Yu Zhen had no one he could trust, so he put Lin Gu in charge of management.

It's no wonder the Zhou family didn't understand. The Alliance's best scientists were either at the Oran Laboratory or the Weapons Research Institute. The Oran Laboratory was self-evident, and the Weapons Research Institute was managed by Yu Zhen. All weapons were researched, designed, and manufactured there, which was an important asset for the Yu family to dominate the major families.

Meanwhile, the professionals specializing in mineral exploration were poached by the Oran Laboratory before they even graduated, leaving the other families with no chance to even get in touch with them.

"You've really got me excited," Zhou Siyu said, rubbing his hands together and drooling. "I've heard the barbecue here is amazing..."

"Then let's stay here for a few days." Yu Wei, driving the car, looked at Zhou Siyu with doting eyes. He knew he would be too busy to go back, so he might as well spend some time with her.

"I agree."

Qin Ge wholeheartedly agreed. He was originally here for a vacation, and finding Yu Wei was just a side task. If he didn't have fun, how could he do justice to his year of hard work?

"Then come stay at my house, it's quite big anyway."

"Oh, never mind." Zhou Siyu smiled and stroked his chin, raising an eyebrow at Yu Zhen with a rather lewd look. "Wouldn't it be intrusive for you two to have some alone time if we went?"

"That's not true." Yu Zhen snatched Qin Ge's book away, somewhat embarrassed, to cover her face. "Nian Yu is still at home."

"Haha, then we shouldn't bother you and your family of three." Qin Ge changed the subject. "But since we've come all this way, you should at least buy us a cup of tea, right?"

"That's for sure," Yu Zhen patted his chest. "Tonight, you'll get to taste my cooking."

"Oh, you can cook?" Zhou Siyu was very surprised. Yu Zhen was a young master who never lifted a finger at home. Even when they lived in the family compound, he had never cooked. When did he learn to cook?

Tsk, they're all cousins, how come Yu Wei can't learn? I haven't seen him for years, all he can do is cook noodles.

Yu Zhen smiled but didn't say anything. Lin Nianyu was very delicate and couldn't eat greasy food, so he could only cook for her at home. Later, when they arrived on the eighteenth planet, he had nothing to do at home, so he learned to cook, grow flowers, pick Lin Nianyu up from school, and tutor her.

His life would be better without Cen Jin.

In stark contrast to the city center, separated from the mining area by a mountain, the roads are wide and flat, lined with tall buildings, and the green belts are planted with all kinds of flowers and trees, with golden ginkgo leaves and bright red maple leaves dancing together.

The car stopped at the market. Yu Wei, Qin Ge, and Yu Zhen got out to shop, while Zhou Siyu sat inside, one hand resting on the window and tapping it lightly, the other hand casually munching on a steamed bun. Her amber eyes warily scanned her surroundings.

After waiting for a while, Zhou Siyu still couldn't see the three of them. Feeling a little impatient, she peeled a piece of candy and popped it into her mouth.

He hates waiting the most.

Just as he was about to get out of the car to look for someone, Yu Wei and the others returned with their things.

"Look what I bought for you." Yu Wei put the things down and handed a bouquet of gifts to Zhou Siyu with a smile.

Zhou Siyu lowered her eyes, too lazy to even look. What could she buy at the market? Broccoli? It was packaged so well, what a waste of resources.

When Zhou Siyu saw what he was holding, his eyes lit up instantly. Yu Wei had actually bought him several plates of sunflowers. He randomly picked one, and it was big and plump, and it was very satisfying to eat it.

“Roasted sunflower seeds are too heaty, this is just right.” Yu Wei smiled, her eyes crinkling into crescent moons, her tone tinged with pride: “Am I smart?”

Seeing Yu Wei's adorable "Praise me! Praise me! Praise me!" expression, Zhou Siyu patted his arm, wanting to ruffle his hair, but she was too lazy to do so.

"Hey~ Lao Yu, have you no shame?" Qin Ge turned his face away, indicating that he couldn't bear to look. "If you want it, I'll pick one up from the ground and give it to you right now."

"Tch, you're just jealous." Yu Wei snorted, tilting his head back with great pride: "You should really find a pond to look at your ugly face."

He's just jealous that he has a wife. Sure enough, jealousy makes people ugly. Look, Qin Ge is ugly now.

"You think you're so smart." Zhou Siyu patted Yu Wei's head as he leaned in and pointed to the driver's seat: "Hurry up, don't try to bribe me with sunflower seeds."

"Okay."

Yu Wei got into the car with a smile, and the others followed suit.

The car stopped in front of a two-story villa. Inside the white fence, there were beautiful roses in full bloom, and roses climbed all over the trellis. Green ivy spread up from the corner of the wall and surrounded half of the house.
