"Today is the second day of filming. I've been busy for eighteen days and I'm feeling a bit tired, so I'm going to give myself a break today."
After saying that, Lu Manman changed her previous languid demeanor, sat up, picked up her cup, and took a big, bold gulp. She said, "This is my homemade milk tea. I use milk from mutated cows, tea leaves, and some fruit. It tastes alright, but the main thing is that it's healthy, all-natural, and pollution-free."
After saying that, Lu Manman finished her milk tea sip by sip. "Okay, since I'm off today, I'll make something delicious to reward myself for being so hardworking."
As she spoke, Lu Manman went to the kitchen and started working. After taking out the ingredients, she began to process them, saying as she did so, "This is a mutated pig. It still tastes familiar, but it's much bigger. But that's good, one can last a long, long time. Today I'm going to make a whole pig feast, including my hometown-style stir-fried pork, stir-fried pork intestines, and pig liver soup."
After a flurry of skillful activity, the three dishes were quickly prepared, and Lu Manman took out the cooked rice.
Sitting at the dining table, I took a deep sniff and couldn't help but exclaim, "It smells so good! I've been so busy with planting since I came here that I haven't had a proper meal like this. I have to remember this taste."
"Hmm, how do I do this? Let me take a closer look at the instructions... Ah, I've got it!" After fiddling with it for a while, Lu Manman finally activated the olfactory sharing mode, so that she could recall it more specifically in the future.
Wang Yuanheng couldn't help but sniff it; it smelled really good, even better than the most luxurious dishes he had ever eaten.
Looking at the long road ahead where he was about to eat a large mouthful of rice, Wang Yuanheng couldn't help but swallow hard.
After finishing my meal, today's video session is over, and it will automatically move on to the next one.
Wang Yuanheng looked at each one, watching Lu Manman plant more and more land, watching Lu Manman tinker with all sorts of little things, witnessing Lu Manman's happiness and joy, and also seeing Lu Manman's troubles and loneliness. Wang Yuanheng couldn't help but be deeply attracted by this beautiful and lovely woman.
Finally, Wang Yuangen saw a recent video, and... he was in it.
Lu Manman, dressed in a sexy swimsuit, was enjoying a relaxing beach bath.
"This is the life I've always dreamed of! It's awesome!"
A robot, also dressed in a swimsuit, was serving her; everything was so harmonious.
Until a fireball shattered the tranquility of this secret planet, the camera automatically gave the fireball a close-up, and Wang Yuangen saw it—it was his own mecha.
The camera then went into a flurry of activity, and the video for that day ended.
In the subsequent video, Lu Manman's words revealed her determination to make money, for which she worked non-stop, even foregoing her regular weekly rest.
Wang Yuangen couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache. In his mind, women were supposed to be pampered like precious jewels, not have to do all the work themselves, and yet they were so short of money.
However, he knew that the girl didn't want anyone to find out about this place or about her.
In a subsequent video, a girl wearing bunny pajamas appeared on camera with a mournful face, saying, "I'm doomed, I've been accepted into the Empire's top military academy."
Lu Manman showed the acceptance email on her personal terminal, sighed, and the rabbit ears on her pajamas drooped down. "I don't know which bastard recommended me, but I'm really grateful. The thought of having to bind my chest and pretend to be a man again makes me absolutely vehemently opposed."
"Although I really don't want to go, given the serious consequences, I still have to leave for a while. But it's okay, I'll definitely make sure I'm eliminated during military training. I just hope everything goes as I wish..."
The autoplay then stopped; this was the last video, and Wang Yuangeng was still savoring it.
So he went to school. Wang Yuanheng glanced at the time; several months had already passed…
He read the notice and learned that the girl's current name was Zhao Jianguo. He was about to order his men to investigate.
The door was suddenly opened, and Wang Yuanheng subconsciously put the floating camera into his spatial ring.
Qi Xiuyuan and Wang Yuangeng looked at each other in bewilderment.
How did you get here?
How did you get here?
The two spoke in unison.
Qi Xiuyuan frowned. "This is Zhao Jianguo's planet. Now that something has happened to her, we need to investigate."
Wang Yuanheng subconsciously assumed it was about a girl disguised as a boy. "What do you want to investigate?"
Instead of answering, Qi Xiuyuan asked, "What is your relationship with her?"
"She saved my life, what happened to her?"
Qi Xiuyuan: "She was caught in the Zerg Queen's lair during military training, and her fate is unknown."
"What?!"
The Zerg Queen's wormhole—is there any chance of survival? Wang Yuanheng couldn't believe that such a beautiful woman was gone just like that.
...
Lu Manman lay on the bed, staring blankly at the mottled ceiling.
With a creak, Lu Manman's gaze followed the sound as the old iron gate was opened from the outside.
Accompanied by a strange smell, an old man came in carrying a bowl of murky water. Seeing that Lu Manman was awake, the old man was very happy and placed the water on the bedside table.
"Child, you're finally awake. Is there anything wrong with your body?"
Lu Manman sat up, frowning, and asked the question that had been lingering in her mind, "Where is this? Who am I? And who are you?"
The old man's smile froze. "You...you don't remember anything?"
Lu Manman thought for a moment and nodded, "Hmm, I don't remember."
The old man looked somewhat disappointed, then sighed, "Ah! It's alright if I don't remember. Anyway, nothing matters here. My name is Gu Lin, you can call me Grandpa Gu."
Gu Lin slapped his forehead as he spoke, "Look at my memory, you must be hungry after lying here for so long. I'll go get you something to eat now, you can rest well."
With a creak, the old man was gone.
Lu Manman closed her eyes and thought carefully, but her mind was still blank. Why couldn't she remember anything? This made her feel very insecure.
Lu Manman got up and got out of bed, carefully observing the dilapidated room. Although the room was old, it was very clean. The room was not big, and there was only a bed and a metal box used as a bedside table.
Lu Manman walked to the window and looked at the large and small hills made of garbage in the distance. There seemed to be something flying around in the sky.
Lu Manman wanted to open the window to take a closer look, but found that it had been welded shut and could not be opened at all.
Lu Manman simply walked to the door, pulled it open abruptly, and a pungent smell suddenly hit her, almost making her vomit.
Lu Manman quickly covered her nose with her arm, only then realizing that her clothes were tattered and torn. Back in her room, Lu Manman looked down at her attire. Her clothes were soaked in blood and had a strong smell of blood. They looked as if they had been twisted by something, hanging in tattered pieces, so torn that it was impossible to tell how she had even put them on.
It's likely that she became in such a wretched state after wearing it. What exactly did she go through?
Lu Manman carefully examined her body. Although her clothes were torn to shreds, her body was completely unharmed.
When I glanced at my ring finger, I noticed a particularly white ring of skin around it. There must be something there.
Knock knock knock!
A knock sounded at the door, and Lu Manman opened it. A group of old men filed in, all looking very excited.
Lu Manman subconsciously took a few steps back.
