“As long as it tastes good.”

After listening to this, Lin Jiuyue waved her hand indifferently.

"I can't guarantee that the taste will be better than what I'm drinking now, but it certainly won't be much worse."

Lin Jiuyue wanted to say that the taste would only be better than what she was drinking now, but she was afraid of arousing Gu Chengyan's suspicion, so she had to be more conservative.

Under the moonlight, Gu Chengyan looked at Lin Jiuyue lovingly while she was looking up at the sky.

He recalled his acquaintance with Lin Jiuyue in his mind. From the beginning when he saved Lin Jiuyue in the mountains, to the later time when he was saved by Lin Jiuyue and her brother while fleeing from the famine, and then to the subsequent journey of fleeing from the famine.

I have forgotten when my feelings towards her began to change.

Perhaps it was when she fed me water when my life was hanging by a thread. Or perhaps it was when I fought side by side with her time and time again while fleeing from famine?

"Um."

Lin Jiuyue was delighted to have found a good business for herself after just a few drinks. However, this business would cause trouble for Bubble again.

Lin Jiuyue, lying on the roof, communicated with Bubble through her mind. She learned that this fruit wine could also be considered a spatial product, and the money from selling it could also be used to upgrade the spatial system.

Lin Jiuyue felt even happier.

Selling pears alone wouldn't bring in much money. Furthermore, they weren't in season, so they couldn't be sold. Selling them would easily arouse suspicion.

But pear wine, or even other fruit wines, are different. No one knows how much you've made. You can sell as much as you want. And the price can be many times higher than pear wine!

After this processing, the price increased several times. I was one step closer to upgrading my space.

Thinking of this, Lin Jiuyue looked at Gu Chengyan. A hint of gratitude flashed in her eyes, which made Gu Chengyan stunned.

"September, what's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?"

Lin Jiuyue smiled so hard that her eyes almost narrowed into slits.

"Gu Chengyan, thank you."

Gu Chengyan: ...

"Um, thank me for what? I don't think I did anything?"

Faced with Lin Jiuyue's sudden thanks, Gu Chengyan was completely stunned.

"Who said you didn't do anything? If you hadn't told me you wanted to buy fruit wine, I wouldn't have thought of making and selling it. If this business succeeds, you'll also have contributed to it."

Gu Chengyan didn't expect that Lin Jiuyue thanked him for this matter.

"Haha, that's what you came up with. It just happened by accident."

After Gu Chengyan finished speaking, he remembered that Lin Jiuyue had just said that she wanted to make fruit wine and sell it!

So, others will be able to drink the fruit wine brewed by this girl?

Thinking of this, Gu Chengyan didn't know whether he should be happy.

I thought I was the only one who could drink this fruit wine. I didn't expect this girl to start this business.

Lin Jiuyue waved her hand.

"Thank you, too. I've figured it out. When the fruit wine is drinkable, I'll sell it to you at a lower price. It's a token of my gratitude."

Gu Chengyan: ...

Seeing Lin Jiuyue happily talking about making and selling wine in the future, Gu Chengyan's mood also inexplicably improved a lot.

After talking about brewing and selling fruit wine, the topic between the two returned to going to the battlefield.

"Gu Chengyan, I have something I want to ask you for help. If you can help me with this, you can drink the fruit wine I brew for free."

Gu Chengyan looked at Lin Jiuyue with amusement.

This girl, who looked like a money-grubber just now, why has she become so generous now?

"Oh? What's the matter? Tell me about it."

Lin Jiuyue filled the cup and spoke.

The battlefield is so dangerous, I originally didn't want Qiye to go there, but I know that if I don't let Qiye go, he will always be thinking about this matter in his heart. Instead of that, it's better to let him go with me."

"But you also know that Qiye has little experience on the battlefield. I'm worried about him..."

Gu Chengyan smiled.

"Actually, you don't have to think too much. Qiye has been with me in the military camp recently. I know him a little bit. With his current abilities, it's no problem for him to protect himself."

"Besides, Qiye went with me. I can't guarantee that he will come back unscathed, but no matter what, I won't let him lose his life."

Lin Jiuyue knew that Gu Chengyan wasn't trying to comfort her, but she couldn't help but worry.

"I know. But Qiye is the only relative I recognize in this world. I would rather he achieve nothing in his life than to see him get hurt in the slightest."

I have my own space. I can't say I can thrive, but at least I can protect myself. At worst, I can just take Qiye and hide in the space together, and come out when the world is peaceful.

"That's just what you think. Qiye once told me that you are the most important person in his life, and he also hopes to protect you in the future through his own efforts."

"The battlefield is a place where people can grow quickly, and that's where he wants to go. I think you should respect his ideas."

Lin Jiuyue was silent.

If respecting his ideas would cost him his life, I would rather he hate me.

But Gu Chengyan said that he would not let Qiye die.

"I know."

Lin Jiuyue exhaled heavily, as if she had made a great decision.

"So, I would like to ask you to take good care of him while he is on the battlefield. At least, you can make sure he returns safely."

Gu Chengyan nodded.

"Don't worry, as long as I'm here, I won't let him lose his life."

Even if you have to exchange your own life for his! Just because, he is your only relative.

Gu Chengyan only thought about the second half of the sentence in his mind and did not say it out loud.

He was afraid that if he said it out loud, it would create a burden for Lin Jiuyue.

Lin Jiuyue smiled gratefully at Gu Chengyan.

"In that case, I'm relieved."

"By the way, when are you leaving?"

Gu Chengyan looked at the full moon hanging in the sky.

"Three days later, we will set off for the capital and follow the team from the capital to the border."

Lin Jiuyue nodded.

Three days, three days is enough!

There are so many medicinal herbs in my space, and I have already saved enough money to upgrade the space.

I heard from Bubble that after the space upgrade, I will be able to obtain the Medical Manual. There are many prescriptions in that book.

When the time comes, I will use the herbs in the space to make some life-saving pills and give them to my brother Gu Chengyan. At the critical moment, they may be able to save his life.

"Yeah, I understand."

Gu Chengyan thought Lin Jiuyue was just asking casually, and didn't expect that Lin Jiuyue would prepare so many things for him in these three days.
