Lu Mingming looked in the direction of the sound—
Under the dreamlike canopy, an elderly woman with white hair leaned against a tree along the road. She was very tall, with a broad chest and strong back, probably over two meters tall. Strangely, she had an unusually long nose.

Seeing that Lu Mingming and his group were already preparing to pack up their lunchboxes, the old woman slapped her thigh in deep regret.
Perhaps because she had rushed all the way here, a thick layer of cold sweat appeared on her temples.
The old woman raised her hand to wipe the sweat from her face with her sleeve and leaned against the tree trunk to rest.
The two children secretly sized up the old man, and for some reason, they had a feeling of familiarity with him, as if they had seen him somewhere before.
"Hello…?"
Lu Mingming tentatively greeted them.
Judging from what the other person just said, they probably want to eat the food I brought today, right?
Hearing Lu Mingming's question, the old woman didn't put on airs, but instead smiled kindly:
"Hey, young lady, where did you buy this vegetable? I could smell the aroma from the foot of the mountain."
At this moment, Lu Mingming took it as a joke and quickly replied shyly, "I made it myself. The kids ate it all. There are still some milk candies and biscuits left. Why don't you try some if you're hungry?"

She moved quickly, taking out two milk candies and half a bag of cookies from her bag and handing them over.
The cookies exuded a rich, milky aroma, as if one were immersed in the softest, fluffiest cream in a bakery, once again attracting the old woman's nose.
"What is this?! It smells so good!"
The old woman got up with shaky legs. Seeing that she had difficulty moving, Lu Mingming quickly went up to help her, replying, "These are milk candies and cookies that I made myself."
"Never heard of it..."
The old woman muttered something under her breath, clearly annoyed.
Anyone else would have been angry because of that slightly offensive remark, but Lu Mingming didn't think so.
Since Milk Candy and Cookies have never appeared in the Star Alliance, and her live streams haven't reached the entire alliance, it's normal that others don't know about them.
Upon hearing these words, Lu Mingming smiled brightly, like a flower in bloom, and brushed a strand of hair behind her ear as she spoke: "Because it was developed by myself, you can try it if you like."
"Of course, otherwise my trip would have been in vain."

The old woman muttered to herself with a broad smile, all the laugh lines on her face appearing together, showing no politeness whatsoever.
Her hands moved much faster than she walked, quickly tearing open the outer packaging and stuffing the cookie into her mouth.
Before she could even taste the first one, the old woman automatically grabbed one small biscuit after another, chewing them with a crunching sound.
This version of the cookies is an improvement by Lu Mingming. She added a layer of black sesame seeds to the cookies, making them taste richer and sweeter.
Even without butter, it's still incredibly crispy, with a rich blend of milky and eggy flavors. One bite and it's so crispy it crumbles and crunches.
The old woman's expression showed no judgment, but she couldn't stop talking, quietly eating her cookies the whole time without uttering a single word.
Afraid that the other person might choke, Lu Mingming thoughtfully prepared warm water beside them.
After finishing the bag of cookies, the old woman took the water glass and gulped it down in a few mouthfuls. She let out a long sigh of satisfaction and exclaimed, "Truly, the younger generation surpasses the older! I haven't eaten such delicious food in a long time."
"The Interstellar Alliance is so big, there must be plenty of delicious food."
Lu Mingming was somewhat modest.

"It's been too long; they've been going against the memory of their ancestors."
The old woman gazed into the distance and uttered a startling observation about reality.
Rarely encountering a beastman who shares the same will as herself, Lu Mingming hoped the old woman would continue speaking, but unexpectedly, the old woman changed the subject:
"Would you like to come to my school and become a teacher? I'll offer you the position of vice dean."
The conversation changed so quickly that Lu Mingming hadn't even had time to react before she met the old woman's sincere gaze.
However, Lu Mingming wasn't easily swayed. She immediately declined politely: "I'm sorry, my actual profession is a parenting section streamer, and I don't live in Sal City. I'm just here to participate in the competition..."
"You mean participating in the competition?"
The old woman's eyes darted around, as if she had discovered something interesting.
The only live-streamed match recently held in Sal City was practically an exposure of the identity of the person using the account.
The old woman's smile was warm and gentle, like the warmth of spring.

"Okay, can you tell me your live stream ID? I'll support you."
"sure."
Lu Mingming nodded and revealed her live stream account without reservation.
After receiving this message, the old woman seemed to genuinely not want to force the other party, and waved her hand before turning and leaving.
A witty remark echoed through the mountains.
"Mingming, I believe we will meet again."
After this little incident, Lu Mingming and his group rested for another ten minutes or so before heading to the party.
Enjoying the scenery during the day, of course you should watch the show at night.
While resting on the fiber optic cable, Lu Mingming looked up Yi Fu's background on the StarNet.
You won't believe it until you check, and what you find will shock you.
