Chapter 53: The Yu Family Couple's Dream Shattered



Yu Lili strongly requested to go out, but was finally suppressed by Rong Jing.

Sweet potatoes need to be dug. After knowing that Yu Lili can answer questions after selection during the live broadcast and that payment needs to be made immediately for each selection question, Rong Jing has already considered it.

The mutton had already been replaced, so Rong Jing decided not to replace anything for the time being except for the necessary cooking pot.

Anyway, dinner is ready, so tomorrow's breakfast can be simple. We can wait until she comes back from hunting.

Sweet potatoes are not very rare, and Rong Jing is not sure how much they cost, but she can bring them back to make sweet potato flour or dry them into dried sweet potatoes. After going through the process, the price will always be higher.

The most important thing is that this can be used as breakfast tomorrow.

After suppressing Yu Lili, Rong Jing went into the cave to find Xiao Zhuque and asked it to accompany her to the sweet potato field.

Yu Lili completely gave up the idea of ​​following the past.

Yu Lili still didn't give up: "I also have a subspace that can help me store a lot of things."

Rong Jing looked up at Da Jin and asked politely, "Can you go pick sweet potatoes with me?"

Da Jin glanced at her, suddenly flapped his wings and flew away, and then came back two minutes later - with half a snake in his mouth.

That was the corpse of the fourth-level mutant earth snake that had been chasing Yu Lili. It only ate half of it and brought the remaining half back.

Professor Qiu and Professor Qi, who were watching the scene from afar, said: "..."

The meat, bones, and skin of the fourth-level mutant earth snake are all good things.

To be precise, mutant animals that have reached level four are different from ordinary mutant animals. Almost every part of their body is precious and valuable!

Eating the meat of mutant animals above level four can enhance physical fitness, and the energy contained in it can be used as medicine.

People with higher physical test levels need to replenish more energy. Ordinary food cannot provide them with sufficient energy. They usually have to drink high-level nutritional supplements. One bottle of high-level nutritional supplement can provide the energy needed for ten days for ordinary people with a physical fitness below or including level D, but it can only be eaten by people with an S-level physical fitness for one meal.

Moreover, although high-end nutritional supplements do not leave impurities in the body, they cannot improve physical fitness.

The meat of intermediate mutant animals is different.

Professor Qiu's every pore was filled with desire. He couldn't help but walk towards Rong Jing: "Will you sell this snake meat, bones and skin?"

By the way, the most valuable part of a snake is its gallbladder.

When I was watching the live broadcast before, it seemed like... the snake gall was in Yu Lili's hand?

Yu Lili, who was standing aside and whose expression was changing from anxious to confused, became even more confused when she felt Professor Qiu's sudden eager gaze.

Shouldn't this be asked to Da Jin? This is Da Jin's thing, why is Professor Qiu looking at her?

Just as she was wondering, Yu Lili suddenly heard a "bang" and the half snake fell less than a meter in front of her.

The sticky fishy smell of the earth snake hit Yu Lili in the face, and he subconsciously raised his hand to cover his nose.

Because she was holding her nose, her voice sounded muffled. She looked at Tushe and then at Dajin, feeling an inexplicable sense of familiarity: "Dajin, is this for me?"

"Cri, ri." Dajin nodded.

Yu Lili thought of the worms and shook her head frantically: "I don't want it. It stinks and it must not taste good."

"Snake meat is actually very tender." Rong Jing suddenly spoke, her voice pensive. "This snake looks very large, at least level three, very likely level four. If it's level four, its meat should be able to improve physical fitness."

Can such a smelly snake really be delicious?

Yu Lili was very suspicious.

Think about the food she has eaten now. Although they all look different when uncooked, none of them are so smelly!

Her expression was clear at a glance, and Rong Jing laughed: "It really tastes good. And if you eat the fourth-level snake meat, maybe the wound on your hand will heal faster."

"I can go out and look for edible herbs." Yu Lili muttered, but compared to the stinky snake, she trusted Rong Jing's cooking skills more, so after hesitating, she closed her eyes and said, "Anyway, I will definitely eat what you cook!"

Rong Jing was both angry and amused: "Then I have to thank you very much."

Yu Lili blinked: "But we can't finish all this. Just tell us how much you want and we'll take it, okay?"

The rest can be given to Dajin, Xiaojin and Xiaoyu.

This mutant snake is useful to humans, so it should also be useful to Dajin and the others. The two little ones need to be nourished well, and Dajin should also eat more.

Rong Jing was casual about it. Anyway, they didn't have many storage boxes to store things in, and they were basically all filled with things. The snake meat was enough for them to eat for two or three meals.

Instead, Professor Qiu became anxious.

He looked at Yu Lili and Rong Jing eagerly, but the two had not noticed him yet, so he could only cough again.

Rong Jing glanced at Professor Qiu and remembered that he was the one who started coughing like crazy in the beginning, trying to get Wang Yun to hint at her. She thought for a moment and whispered, "Why not prepare a meal for them too?"

"You are the one who cooks, of course I will listen to you." Yu Lili said that she was free to do whatever she wanted.

Rong Jing looked at Professor Qiu's eyes, which lit up instantly, and a hint of smile flashed in her eyes: "But the price of processed snake meat will be a bit higher."

Professor Qiu couldn't help but say, "Actually, unprocessed snake meat is also fine."

Compared to eating it, he actually hopes to get raw snake meat, which can be used for some experiments and research!

However, Rong Jing just spread her hands innocently: "But cooked snake meat is more expensive. With so little snake meat, I'll definitely choose the more cost-effective deal."

Professor Qiu: “…”

He looked forward to it: "What about the snake skin and bones?"

Rong Jing didn't continue joking with the old man. She said, "I will leave some snake meat, bones and skin."

The matter of snake meat was settled for the time being, but even if there was an extra dish, the sweet potatoes still had to be dug up.

Sweet potatoes are much more convenient to cook as a staple food than wheat, and they are softer. I can prepare some for Professor Qiu and others when the time comes.

Respecting the elderly and loving the young is an upbringing ingrained in the people of the Flower Kingdom. As a former citizen of the Flower Kingdom, Rong Jing has never forgotten this habit.

Da Jin didn't go with Rong Jing to dig sweet potatoes, but Xiao Jin and Xiao Yu followed them for two hours. They were the little porters hired by Rong Jing in exchange for two skewers of barbecue.

Of course, the two skewers of barbecue were just a deposit. The two little ones were very smart.

There was nothing to do, so Yu Lili gave the snake meat, snake skin and bones that were going to be given to Professor Qiu to him, and then Da Jin stuffed them into her wings and let her go to sleep.

Yu Lili, who hadn't woken up yet, said: "..."

She lay there obediently, and only called Wang Yun once: "Sister Wang Yun, can you call me when the time is up?"

"Okay, go to sleep." Wang Yun, who had already left the cave with Ms. You, agreed immediately.

So Yu Lili fell asleep.

The underside of the golden eagle's wings is very warm and soft. To be honest, it is much better than a rabbit skin bed.

After a good sleep, Yu Lili felt much better when she heard Wang Yun calling her.

Rong Jing came back before she woke up and brought back a bunch of sweet potatoes. However, knowing that Yu Lili had fallen asleep, and after agreeing with Wang Yun on the time to call her, Rong Jing went into the cave to cook.

Hearing the shout, Yu Lili woke up with a yawn. She rubbed her eyes, slid down from the golden-feathered eagle, and smiled at Wang Yun: "So, does our live broadcast start now?"

"Let's begin now." Wang Yun put on a pair of glasses and pushed them up, a smile on her face. "Your audience voted on the questions, and I'll ask you one by one based on the number of votes. Of course, the price of each question is 100 trading points, and this remains unchanged. The Level 3 goat meat you sold us and the contents of the Level 4 mutant beast you sold to Professor Qiu are worth a total of 213 trading points."

"You've exchanged for a rice cooker. The rice cooker requires 33 trading points, so you have 180 trading points left. You can answer one question for now. Do you want to start answering questions now?"

"No." Yu Lili shook her head and smiled. "Let's go find Rong Jing first. By the way, where are my audience? I want to say hello to them."

Wang Yun operated the bracelet on her right hand, and then a live broadcast device the size of a palm, shaped like a small bee, suddenly appeared from the air. "This is the live broadcast device."

"So this is what it looks like. Kind of cute." Yu Lili smiled and waved at the live streamer: "Hello everyone, my name is Yu Lili. I'm glad you like me, and I like you too!"

【Ahhh, baby Carp said she likes me. 】

[Get lost, she clearly said she likes me! ]

[You bad guys who are trying to steal my precious carp, draw your swords!]

Wang Yun could see the instantly boiling barrage of comments. She only reminded Yu Lili: "You can talk to them more. There are no restrictions on what you say."

"Oh, okay." Yu Lili smiled and pointed at Da Jin and introduced him, "This is Da Jin. You all know him, right? Da Jin is very powerful. He accidentally mistook me for his offspring."

"These are Xiaojin and Xiaoyu. Xiaojin is the older brother and Xiaoyu is the younger sister. They are both very beautiful golden-feathered eagles."

"And this cave. I discovered it by accident. It's very comfortable to live in."

"I don't know what to say, actually. Why don't we go in and see what delicious food Rong Jing has made? I can already smell a little bit of the fragrance."

Wang Yun looked at the audience who were talking to Yu Lili and were still sending comments to support her even though they knew she couldn't see them. A smile flashed in her eyes.

How to say it.

Yu Lili's strength is not particularly strong, she seems to have relied on luck all the way, and her live broadcast is not exciting, but it is this kind of faint gentle warmth that makes people feel very comfortable.

It's like there will never be any trouble.

This is probably why those viewers like to watch her live broadcast.

At this time, they were chatting non-stop, and one party was completely oblivious to what the other party was saying, but the two parties were surprisingly harmonious.

But when Wang Yun saw another live broadcast, her eyes narrowed.

In fact, if Wang Yun only watched Yu Lili's live broadcast room, she would not need to wear glasses at all, because she can choose privacy mode when watching the live broadcast on the identity bracelet, so Yu Lili cannot see it, but Wang Yun can see it.

But she opened another live broadcast room, which was the live broadcast room of the Yu family couple's meeting. She planned to help Yu Lili observe the situation.

Compared to Yu Lili who just woke up and started chatting with the audience in the live broadcast room, Yu's mother and father had already started the live broadcast.

Yu's mother and father are on the relatively marginal planet Z38, but now live broadcasts don't necessarily require face-to-face interactions, so you can just go to the star network and start a live broadcast.

They were interviewed by the X program crew, who love third-rate melodrama and only care about popularity and not moral integrity. They dance on the edge of morality, but they hold that line very well and will not cross the line and violate the law.

Yu Lili has been quite popular recently and seems to be the easiest person to bully, mainly because Yu's mother took the initiative to jump out. They just spread the net and Yu's mother would fall into it by herself.

Both Yu's mother and father are actually good-looking. They are also high-paid figures on Z38 Star. They also dressed up when they came to participate in the live broadcast.

Only Yu's father and mother and the host were in the live broadcast room. The host's name was Tianyi, a young man who looked to be in his twenties.

At this time, he first faced the live broadcast device: "Hello everyone, I am your friend Tianyi. Today is the time for our live broadcast again. I am sure many friends have watched this episode of Desolate Star Live, and many friends have also watched the 88th anchor Yu Lili of Desolate Star Live."

"Streamer No. 88 can be considered a legend among the Desolate Star live streamers. Her mental and physical fitness were originally only E, but thanks to her good luck, she now has an easier life than most streamers, and many miraculous things have happened to her."

"Of course, these are all visible on the Desolate Star Live, so we won't go into details. This time, we're mainly searching for Yu Lili, who can't be seen on the Desolate Star Live. To this end, we've invited Yu Lili's parents—Mr. Yu and Ms. Lin."

Tian Yiyi stretched out his hand, and the camera turned to Yu's mother and father.

The two of them greeted each other briefly, and then the camera moved back a little to capture all three of them.

Tianyi's attitude seemed friendly and gentle: "Don't be nervous, just relax. We are mainly here to chat today."

Tianyi: "I heard that Miss Yu had already received an admission letter to the Pharmacy Department of Alliance University before participating in the Desolate Star live broadcast? Given Miss Yu's previous mental strength level, the fact that she received an admission letter from the Pharmacy Department must be due to her talent in pharmacy, right?"

Mother Yu squeezed her hands. "She's always worked very hard... We don't really know her talent, because she's been quiet since she was a child. We didn't dare ask too much, for fear of putting pressure on her. We were really happy to know that she got the acceptance letter from Union University. But... but she shouldn't have gone to the Desolate Star Live Broadcast on her own."

Tianyi: "I heard that she participated in the live broadcast on Desolate Planet because she wanted to earn money to go to college? Has she been so lucky before? Did she participate in the live broadcast because she knew she was lucky?"

Yu's mother: "We've actually already prepared the money for her college education. She might have participated in the live broadcast because..."

Having said that, Yu's mother paused, hesitated and did not continue.

Tianyi had a feeling that something was wrong and asked quickly, "What's wrong? What could be the reason?"

Yu's mother hesitated for a long time before continuing, "Maybe she wants to buy a spirit power-enhancing potion... Spirit power-enhancing potions are not only expensive, but also carry great risks, so we haven't considered it."

Tianyi: "So she participated in the live broadcast mainly because of her own selfish motives?"

Yu's mother looked displeased: "Don't talk nonsense, this is not necessarily the case."

Tianyi: "If that's the case, it makes sense. But I heard that Miss Yu was forcibly sent there by you to participate in the live broadcast?"

Yu's mother was furious. "Are those who say these things trying to sow discord in our family? And who doesn't know that signing a contract for Desolate Star Live requires personal consent? How could we possibly force her to go?"

Tianyi said, "Ms. Lin, don't be angry. I'm just asking for clarification on behalf of others. I'm not doubting you."

Yu's mother covered her face and said, "If we had known she would participate in the Desolate Star live broadcast, we would have bought it for her no matter what."

[What a pitiful pair of parents! I used to think the anchor was pretty, but I never expected him to be this kind of person.]

[Tsk tsk tsk, it's better not to just throw away a daughter like this.]

[You're still young, so what's wrong with being a little willful? At least you're not oppressing your parents, but it's just pitiful for the hearts of parents everywhere.]

Barrages of comments popped up one after another.

Wang Yun felt a little angry when she saw everything.

If they were really good parents, they would not go to such a live broadcast, nor would they rashly say such words.

They don't seem to be ignorant people. Don't they really know that what they said will affect Yu Lili's image?

Some people in Yu Lili's live broadcast room also broadcast live at the same time. They were all very angry and eager to know an answer.

"Rong Jing!" Yu Lili, who had no idea what was happening in the other livestream, smelled a familiar aroma and leaned over eagerly, "Did you roast the sweet potatoes? They smell so good."

"It will be ready soon and you can eat it later." Rong Jing touched Yu Lili's head and greeted Wang Yun.

Wang Yun smiled and said, "Do you mind if I put a few lights in the cave?"

Rong Jing: "I don't mind."

Wang Yun lit a few lights and the cave instantly became bright.

Yu Lili and Rong Jing were both sitting on wooden stools. Wang Yun also found a wooden stool to sit on before asking Yu Lili the first question: "Lili, are you ready? If you are, I will start asking the first question."

Yu Lili sat down obediently: "I'm ready."

Wang Yun: "My first question is: How does Lili get along with her parents and younger brother?"

Yu Lili said without hesitation: "Not good."

[Oh wow, as expected, this first question is a good one! Don't those two from the Yu family feel embarrassed?]

[Tsk tsk tsk, they're live streaming and can't see our baby Lili.]

[Based on these two words alone, I don't believe what those two people said about Carp Baby secretly participating in the live broadcast just to get the spiritual power-boosting potion.]

Yu Lili didn't know the content of the barrage, but this time she originally wanted to peel off the friendly layer of the Yu couple, and of course she would not just be an eavesdropper.

She recalled the original owner's memories before continuing, "They've always treated Yu Lili badly because she was just a double-E loser. When her brother with an A physique was born, she became even less important."

"They were able to complete sixteen years of schooling because it was compulsory education in the Alliance. It didn't cost them much money or effort anyway."

"When he was young, she took care of his younger brother. When he grew up, she earned her own pocket money and some school expenses."

Wang Yun's brows were already furrowed.

Now few people noticed that Yu Lili's statement was strange. She mentioned "Yu Lili" and "her", as if she was telling someone else's story. They felt more distressed.

After a pause, Yu Lili said, "She particularly likes potions and is very talented in them. Even with her E-level mental power and many limitations, she was still able to get into the best Alliance University."

"But the admission letter sent by Union University was torn up by her parents."

"She was even tricked into signing a contract by her parents, using their rare tenderness and affection, because her younger brother had received an opportunity to compete for a position as an A-rank disciple."

"My parents said it was a part-time job contract. They said they were busy with their younger brother and couldn't help with her university education. But because they knew she wanted to go to university, they found her a suitable job."

“She signed it.”

After finishing the sentence, Yu Lili looked completely isolated from the outside world, even seeming a little indifferent.

Wang Yun finally noticed the strangeness in her words and couldn't help asking, "Why do you keep saying 'she'?"

"Because the Yu Lili who longed for family affection is dead. The one here now is the Yu Lili who will not be soft-hearted towards them at all."

[Damn, I know that couple's words can't be trusted, but I didn't expect them to be so shameless. What? Did they see the value of the carp baby again and want to pry it up? The Yu family, right? Planet Z38, right? I'll remember that!]

[Isn't it just the Yu family? I absolutely cannot tolerate them jumping around in front of my precious Lili again!]

【Add me one. 】

At the same time, another problem quickly emerged.

Wang Yun looked at the question and wanted to ask again, but she didn't have enough trading points.

Just when he was in a dilemma, Rong Jing handed over a piece of charcoal-grilled snake meat and said, "Exchange for trading points."

"Okay." Wang Yun accepted it without saying a word. Someone immediately marked the price of this plate of charcoal-grilled snake meat. Nearly eighty transaction points were enough for Wang Yun to ask the next question.

Before asking, she checked with Yu Lili: "Would you like to hear the next question?"

Yu Lili nodded: "Listen."

"Okay, after deducting 100 trading points, there are now 57 trading points left." Wang Yun said, and then immediately asked a question: "Do you hate the Yu family? What price do you want the Yu family to pay?"

"Hate? Not really hate, I just dislike them." Yu Lili spoke frankly. In the eyes of others, she seemed heartbroken, so she didn't even bother to hate them. She thought for a moment and said, "Then I want them to not get the 200,000 yuan that Yu Lili earned from participating in the live broadcast, and I want them to sever ties with them. Then I want them to experience the despair and pain that Yu Lili once experienced."

After saying that, Yu Lili smiled embarrassedly: "Did I say too much?"

"Not much." Wang Yun looked at Yu Lili lovingly.

The audience who were watching the live broadcast also looked at Yu Lili with pity. Her requirements were simply too low, okay?

The audience in the live broadcast room was rubbing their hands in anticipation. Meanwhile, in a certain military base, a middle-aged man glanced at the little Suzaku in the corner of the live broadcast room. A young man standing behind him, also watching the live broadcast, asked, "Should we take action?"

The middle-aged man said, "Of course. We need to prevent those two idiots from the Yu family from disturbing her. But don't be too anxious. Maybe she still wants to solve it herself."

In addition to the middle-aged man, similar words were also heard from a mutant animal researcher and a mutant plant research institute.

The Yu couple still had no idea what they were about to face, and they were still dreaming of restoring their reputation first. As for Yu Lili? She could be easily coaxed back by showing her a good face, so there was nothing to be afraid of.
