As everyone knows, the Guo family is the only family in the entire galaxy that is close to humans.
Perhaps because their ancestors were human, even though humans' status in the interstellar space has been declining, the Guo family has never discriminated against or excluded humans, and will even try to help where they can.
"Of course I don't mind!" Lu Xue changed to a new fork and handed it to Twenty-Four Pots. "Try it. Uh... it may not be so appetizing, but I think it's delicious."
The panda was so cute and chubby. It sat next to Lu Xue, its short legs barely reaching the ground as it used its soft paws to hold the fork and take a bite.
After a moment, its round eyes widened slightly——
"tasty!"
Moreover, there were a few moments when he felt that the taste was inexplicably familiar, as if it resonated with a certain love and closeness inherited from his blood.
"real?"
"Really! Can I have some more?"
Twenty-four Pot chewed the fork as if chewing bamboo, and couldn't help but take a few more bites.
A few minutes later.
"Hey," Twenty-Four Pots patted his white, fluffy belly with a meat pad, so satisfied that he even spoke in his hometown dialect, "Enjoy the food! Who is this chef? Maybe I can help him."
Lu Xue found Twenty-Four Pots to be very approachable. Even though he was the most popular star, he was not overbearing at all, just like an ordinary friend. She said, "Oh, this is not a chef, but a human anchor."
"Anchor?" Twenty-four Pots was stunned.
"Yes, he is on Tucker Star, his last name is Gu."
Twenty-four Pots seemed to have become a repeater: "Gu?"
Lu Xue nodded, and after a moment, she realized: "...Huh?"
There are so few humans now, and most of them live at the lower level and are scattered on various satellite planets.
Only a very small number of human families have entered the capital planet. Among them, the Gu family has relied on many generations of business to squeeze into the central city of the capital planet. They are considered to be a wealthy family of moderate size - of course, it is still not impressive enough in the eyes of people in the upper city.
Gu Yumian is a human being and his surname is Gu, which really makes people think more.
But since he was a child of the Gu family, why would he go to Tak Planet alone? They pondered this question at the same time.
After a while, Twenty-Four Pots scratched his head and couldn't help asking:
"Um...how do I watch this anchor's live broadcast?"
After all, he's a superstar, so his schedule is incredibly busy, and since he started working in early spring, it's even more packed. He doesn't even have time to sleep, let alone have fun.
But if you just watch the live broadcast for more than ten minutes, the agent shouldn’t say anything, right?
When the live broadcast ended, Gu Yumian didn't know that he had set several records in the live broadcast industry on Tak Star.
One million star coins, even after sharing the profits with the platform, still amounted to four hundred thousand. He looked at the four hundred thousand transferred into his account and felt that this world was no longer real.
What did he do? How did he move into a mansion and become rich overnight?
"Am I worthy?" He buried his head in the snow leopard's furry neck and rubbed it, saying painfully, "Tuantuan, I'm not worthy."
Little Snow Leopard: “…”
It looked down at the human from a high position, and after a moment, it stretched out its claws and pressed on his forehead. If it said it was a match, it was a match. Who dared to object?
Gu Yumian felt guilty and hesitated for half a minute before opening his light brain to send a voice message to that 'Shuo'.
"Hello, I'm Gu Yumian, the anchor on the Starry Sky platform. You just threw a hundred fireworks at me during your live stream. I appreciate the kindness, but I feel bad for the money. If it's convenient, I'll return it to you."
As soon as the message showed that it had been delivered, Gu Yumian heard a crisp "ding dong" sound beside him. At the same time, the bow tie-shaped light brain on the little snow leopard's neck flashed.
Gu Yumian: “?”
Little Snow Leopard: “…”
Damn it.
After meeting Finnick last time and dealing with some things, it has replaced the optical computer with its original configuration, just to prevent Gu Yumian from noticing anything unusual. The appearance and basic settings are still the same as those of the children's optical computer.
Every time the children's optical computer receives a new text message, there will be a very obvious prompt sound and flashing.
Fortunately, Gu Yumian did not associate "Shuo" with the little snow leopard.
"Did you receive a new text message?" Gu Yumian held the little snow leopard's paw, feeling very curious. "Could it be a spam message? Tuantuan, can you read it? Do you want me to help—"
The little snow leopard pushed his head away in disgust, jumped off Gu Yumian's shoulder, used its claws to pry open the door from the top-floor garden to the downstairs, and left.
Gu Yumian: "..."
He sighed.
Is this child in a premature relationship? Or perhaps in his rebellious phase? Why does he get angry at his parents so often?
But soon, the prompt from the light brain interrupted Gu Yumian's thoughts.
【Shuo: No need.】
The most common form of communication in this era is virtual video, which can directly project people. Video and voice are the second most common forms of communication, and few people use text messages anymore.
Gu Yumian looked at the sea in the distance and changed his words:
"Thank you so much for your love."
One million is not a small amount of money for any family, right? Furthermore, the average age of those watching the livestream is relatively young, with many being young adults or even minors.
Half a minute later.
【Shuo: You’re welcome.】
Gu Yumian: "..."
"Excuse me, is it convenient for you to talk to me?"
Gu Yumian felt that the other party did not understand what he meant. After hesitating for a moment, he clicked to initiate an online call invitation - the other party might not be convenient for video call, but a phone call would be fine, right?
The prompt tone became longer and longer, and lasted for a full minute.
Just when the call was about to be automatically hung up, it was picked up.
The Shuo seemed to be near the sea as well, and Gu Yumian could hear the gentle sounds of waves and wind in the background. Neither of them spoke for a moment, and after a moment, the other spoke first:
"What's the problem?"
It was a surprisingly pleasant sound.
The deep sound was like that of some expensive cello, and when it passed by the ears, it made people feel like drinking a glass of mellow and slightly tipsy wine. His voice was so low that people could hear a hint of nervousness, unnaturalness and affection in his cold tone.
Gu Yumian suddenly forgot the words that were on the tip of his tongue.
The microphone carried the breathing of the two people, deep and shallow, blending together in the gentle night.
"I see." After a long while, Gu Yumian smiled helplessly. "Then at least... allow me to express my gratitude to you, Mr. Shuo. Do you like the salad tonight? I'll send you a separate portion."
Gu Yumian decided to make this salad seriously.
Shuo closed his eyes and said, "Okay."
Gu Yumian: "If nothing else—"
Unexpectedly, Shuo interrupted Gu Yumian when he heard this:
"Don't hang up."
Gu Yumian was slightly stunned.
On the other end of the phone, someone pursed his lips slightly and did not explain further.
This duplex has the best sea view in the entire Haiyiyuejuli, surrounded by the sea on three sides. Therefore, when it was first designed, many terrace facilities were built to facilitate sea views. At this moment, a glass of vodka is placed on the railing of the second-floor terrace.
The man's bony fingers held the wine glass, and his other hand tapped lightly on the edge of the terrace.
The sea breeze melted into the night and blew gently. On the other end of the phone was the shallow and even breathing of the human being. This was a rare moment in his life.
He lowered his eyes to look at the light-colored wine, drank it all after a moment, and frowned slightly.
It’s not as delicious as the one made by Gu Yumian.
The silence was strange, and Gu Yumian even felt a little sleepy. He held his laptop in one hand, wondering where Xuetuan had gone. He wouldn't be drinking secretly, right?
He gently pushed open the door to the top garden and walked down the stairs.
Gu Yumian walked around the second floor for a long time, almost going to the terrace, but he didn't see the little snow leopard anywhere. He noticed that the wine cabinet in the second-floor living room seemed to have been tampered with, and he was a little suspicious for a moment, and said loudly:
"Snowball? On the terrace?"
Shuo: “…”
When Gu Yumian walked into the terrace, the air stagnated for a second.
His heart moved——
The first thing that caught his eye was the wine glass on the railing, and then Gu Yumian saw his little ancestor sitting upright on the table with a serious and indifferent look on his face, as if the wine glass had nothing to do with him.
"Little drunkard." Gu Yumian pinched the little snow leopard's face. "Children will become stupid if they drink too much. Do you want to be stupid?"
The little snow leopard glanced at him coldly.
"You're quite good at pretending." Gu Yumian looked at the little bit of wine left at the bottom of the glass, sniffed it, and said:
"Vodka? Little Gu Xuetuan, your abstinence from alcohol has officially begun. I'll lock up the wine cabinet in a moment."
Little Snow Leopard: “…”
Gu Yumian was irritated by the little snow leopard who was drinking secretly, and began to lecture him, but the little snow leopard listened with indifference.
Gu Yumian gradually felt that the little snow leopard might have done it on purpose, because the more Gu Yumian talked to it, the more it seemed to have a stern face, but its long tail swung and wrapped around Gu Yumian's wrist affectionately.
It seemed that the more Gu Yumian worried and blamed it, the more he cared about it and liked it.
It was a long while later that Gu Yumian remembered that he had just been talking on the phone with someone.
He looked down at his computer and found that the call with Shuo had been hung up by the other party at some point.
That night.
After Gu Yumian fell asleep, a message was sent to the little snow leopard's light brain.
"Finnick: Your Majesty, this time we've thoroughly investigated everything. As you suspected, the original heir to the Gu family was indeed Young Master Gu Yumian. His father passed away when he was eighteen. The reason Young Master Gu, who was supposed to inherit the family fortune, was forced to travel alone to Planet Tucker was because the other members of the Gu family behaved extremely despicablely. They..."
The Gu family is indeed not an easy person to deal with, as they can make someone like Finnick, who is at the center of the power vortex, say the four words "extremely despicable".
The fluorescent light from the screen was reflected in the gray-blue pupils of the little snow leopard.
It narrowed its eyes slightly and read through all the words carefully.
After a few days of eating and sleeping well, Gu Yumian suddenly received a notice this morning that he had been shortlisted for a spot in the new anchor support project.
In the new anchor support program, there is only one spot for Takstar, but ten anchors have been shortlisted. The final winner will be determined by the average popularity and reputation of their live broadcasts over the next few days.
"If you successfully obtain a support quota, you will receive a bonus of 200,000 star coins, multiple endorsements, exclusive recommendation spots, and other benefits. At the same time, the anchor can also travel to the capital star to communicate with new anchors from all over the star system and participate in the next round of competition (travel expenses are fully reimbursed)."
The staff said.
Hearing the words "heading to the capital planet", Gu Yumian didn't feel anything, but the little snow leopard's ears moved.
It had been dozing lazily, but now it woke up. It first jumped onto Gu Yumian's shoulder, then pushed his head with its little paw pad with a serious look on its face.
It had been thinking for a long time about an excuse to trick Gu Yumian to go to the capital planet. Now, it was really sleepy and someone handed it a pillow.
This spot must be obtained!
