Chapter 21 The Former Japanese Marshal is Today's Soft Rice A
"I understand. Do you two need a small spaceship for your honeymoon?"
“We’re not a couple.” Heng Xing looked at Yu Nianqing and, seeing that he was unmoved and didn’t refute her, had no choice but to give this familiar answer herself.
"Oh, I'm so sorry, I misread it. Do you two have a preferred model?" The boss apologized immediately, his attitude was very good.
Hengxing opened the terminal and showed him the spaceship model he liked.
"This one isn't in stock. It has to be shipped from another planet, and even then, there's no guarantee it'll be available. You know, girl, this is a model from two years ago, and the company has already stopped producing it."
After glancing at the model number, the boss led the two to the most eye-catching booth. "Why don't you take a look at the latest model of this one? It was just released in the first half of the year. Although the price-performance ratio is a bit lower than the one from two years ago, its appearance is much better, right?"
Heng Xing hesitated, looking at the model without saying a word.
The boss is an honest man; he doesn't exaggerate or make things up.
This year's new model has the same performance as the one two years ago, but the shell was designed by a famous designer and looks a little better. The price is one million star coins more expensive, and the basic bare model alone costs three and a half million star coins.
If you really have to add that million, you might as well choose a better, higher-end model.
Knowing that she had some knowledge of spaceships and wasn't an outsider, the boss started speaking in a tailored manner and led the two to the booth next door.
"If you don't care about the appearance, you might as well spend a little more money to go for a higher-end model. Take a look at this one. The basic model can be had for four million star coins. Its safety, flight speed, and fuel tank size are all at least 30% better than the three and a half million model. It's the king of cost-effectiveness in the two to five million star coin range, and it sells very well. We just sold one."
Seeing Heng Xing spinning the spatial ring without saying a word, Yu Nianqing asked her softly, "Do you still like the one from before? Or, shall we go to other stores to take a look?"
Before Hengxing could answer, the shopkeeper interrupted him, "I'm sure there's no spaceship of this model available for purchase in the entire Swiss. If you don't believe me, you can call the communications department of other spaceship dealerships to ask."
Upon hearing this, Yu Nianqing's expression softened slightly. Four million star coins were not a big deal for him; if Captain Heng liked it, then he would buy it.
Seeing the situation, the boss immediately added, "And this one is on sale right now; the upgraded version has a discount."
Yu Nianqing: "What's the total price after the discount?"
The boss thought things were looking promising and said cheerfully, "You guys take a look first. I'll go upstairs to check. I accidentally left the terminal upstairs just now."
The boss's chubby figure disappeared around the corner of the stairs.
Yu Nianqing asked Heng Xing, who hadn't spoken until now, "Don't you like this?"
Hengxing whispered in his ear, "It's too expensive, how about we go with that one?"
The warm breath tickled her earlobe, and Yu Nianqing turned her head to look in the direction the other woman was pointing.
Hengxing's new target was located in the corner of the first-floor booth, as if it were being squeezed out by the other models.
Yu Nianqing glanced at the information board. It was an old model from five years ago, priced at 1.5 million star coins. It looked like a good brother to the old spaceship from before.
He understood that it wasn't that she didn't like it, but that she thought it was too expensive.
“Since we’re going to buy something, why not buy something better?” Yu Nianqing said, gently seeking her opinion.
Heng Xing said in a very soft voice, "It's too expensive, there's no need for that."
"That one, worth 3.5 million star coins, does have a very beautiful casing."
"Buying that one made me feel like a sucker, so I'll stick with this one. It's simple and practical, and it's better than the previous one no matter what."
The boss scurried up to the second floor to get the terminal, only to find that his long-lost friend was not playing games, but sitting on the sofa, looking down through the glass corridor, lost in thought.
He quickly grabbed his terminal and prepared to go downstairs when the female Alpha suddenly asked him, "How much is the enhanced version after the discount?"
"Four and a half million Star Coins after rounding down."
“Then tell them that they only need to pay 3.5 million star coins, and I will cover the remaining 1 million.”
The boss turned around and looked at her as if he had seen a ghost, "You're so kind."
The female Alpha stood up and adjusted her watch. The precious gems on the dial reflected a rainbow of colors. "I feel like I know her. She must be someone I know."
Boss: "They're just acquaintances, and you're being so generous?"
"We might know each other, but it's not certain yet. Oh, and don't forget to mention my contribution to their success."
The boss returned to Heng Xing and Yu Nianqing with doubts. "After the discount, it's 4.5 million star coins, but today President Gu said he'd give you another 1 million star coins off, so it'll be 3.5 million star coins."
Before they met, neither of them showed any surprise. He added, "You can check on the StarNet. There's no price this low anywhere else in the entire galaxy."
Heng Xing: "President Gu, who is he?"
Following her boss's gaze, she looked up at the second floor and discovered that President Gu was the woman who had just been sprawled out downstairs playing games.
The mentioned CEO, Mr. Gu, leaned lazily against the railing. After meeting her gaze, he smiled and waved to her. He made the simple gesture look like a military parade. Heng Xing was inspecting the warship below, while she was giving a speech and offering her congratulations from above.
Yu Nianqing asked, "Captain Heng, do you know her?"
Hengxing racked his brains, "I don't think I know him."
We didn't know each other until at least eighteen years old.
The boss asked them, "What do you think?"
The price of 3.5 million is really tempting. He's right, there's no more affordable price in the entire galaxy.
Hengxing began to struggle silently again, his facial features contorting in a grimace.
Yu Nianqing preferred to buy at the original price rather than with a discount. She felt obligated to give gifts, so she secretly marked the price on every gift.
He nudged Hengxing's arm. "What do you think?"
This is a birthday gift for her, and ultimately it will be up to her to make the decision.
"This one then," she decided after some hesitation.
Another spaceship was sold today.
The boss's eyes narrowed into slits with delight. "Then let's sign the contract and pay the deposit. After we sign, I'll take you to the port to pick up the spaceship right away."
Although she didn't quite agree with her approach, Yu Nianqing still went with her boss to sign the contract and pay the deposit.
"Come on, I'll take you to the port." The boss pointed to the flying vehicle at the entrance and walked ahead, leaving the store.
Heng Xing followed behind him, and Yu Nianqing took the opportunity to say to her, "Captain Heng, this isn't a good idea. You'll have to pay back the benefits you take later."
Heng Xing raised an eyebrow indifferently, "It's okay, I don't repay everyone's favors."
For example, she will definitely repay Mr. Yu's favor, but she may not be so sure about that President Gu. If she really has any excessive ideas, Hengxing is certain that she will lose all that money.
She has thick skin and can withstand personal attacks.
As Hengxing walked out of the store, he looked back at the second floor one last time.
Mr. Gu was still standing there looking at her, their gazes meeting peacefully in the air, without any tension.
Heng Xing turned and left, puzzled.
Whether the two women truly knew each other remains to be seen in her ten years of lost memories.
The boss drove the two to the port to pick up the spaceship. After Hengxing checked it inside and out and found no problems, he checked the final payment that Yu Nianqing had transferred and returned to the store satisfied.
The female Alpha started playing games again.
He casually asked again, "Are you sure you know her now?"
Mr. Gu smiled and said, "Of course, I always have excellent eyesight."
From the front, she only had doubts, but when she saw it from behind, she was certain of her guess.
After serving as marshal for so many years, he hasn't even saved a penny and openly lives off a beautiful Omega.
It's unbelievable.
“Send me the serial number for that Omega terminal,” she told her boss.

"Captain Heng, do we need to buy energy?" Yu Nianqing asked Heng Xing.
"No need, the energy is included in the package." Heng Xing operated the spaceship to take off.
"By the way, Captain Heng, do you have a refrigerator?" Yu Nianqing remembered that he had a bunch of things that needed to be refrigerated in his spatial storage.
“There are plenty. Where do you want to put them?” Hengxing turned to look at him after setting the direction. “By the way, Mr. Yu, have you chosen a room yet?”
"I haven't decided yet, Captain Heng. Have you decided where you want to stay?" Yu Nianqing asked.
He wanted to live next door to Hengxing.
"I don't care where I live," Hengxing said.
She couldn't sleep at night, and the bed was practically just for show.
Yu Nianqing looked into her eyes, "Captain Heng, could you help me choose a room?"
After recalling the spaceship map, Heng Xing said, "How about we stay in the first room?"
Unlike the previous spaceship with its three identical guest rooms, this spaceship's four guest rooms vary in size and configuration, clearly indicating a hierarchy. The first room is the largest and best, featuring a two-meter-wide bed, floor-to-ceiling windows, and an ensuite bathroom with a large bathtub.
Mr. Yu funded this spaceship, so he definitely deserves to stay in the best room.
Yu Nianqing knew that Hengxing had assigned her the best room, and a smile appeared on her lips. Her heart was filled with sweet joy.
"Thank you, Captain Heng."
Hengxing noticed his happiness and began to feel secretly proud.
Mr. Yu probably wanted to stay in that room, but was too embarrassed to say it, so she said it for him.
While acting as a bodyguard, he was also able to anticipate his boss's thoughts.
Heng Xing must be the best bodyguard in the world.
"Captain Heng, can you stay next door to me?" Yu Nianqing asked, her words carrying a hidden agenda.
Without hesitation, the bodyguard Heng Xing agreed, "Okay."
Yu Nianqing: "Then let's put the refrigerator in the kitchen. I have some things that need to be refrigerated."
“Okay, I’ll set the flight path and then launch it,” Heng Xing said.
Seeing that she couldn't help, Yu Nianqing went to take a shower. After finishing the navigation trajectory, Heng Xing went to the kitchen to install the refrigerator.
When she turned on the refrigerator and felt the coolness emanating from it, she suddenly remembered that the cake she had bought also needed to be put in the refrigerator.
But if it's placed here, it won't be easy for Mr. Yu to find it, and then there won't be any surprise tomorrow.
fine.
She also has a refrigerator.
Following Yu Nianqing's advice, she chose the room next door, placed another refrigerator next to the bed, took out a cake from her spatial storage, put it in the refrigerator, and then went to take a shower.
Expensive spaceships and cheap spaceships are just different.
Even the water from the showerhead is much stronger now.
Hengxing felt this was the most refreshing shower he had ever taken.
Oh, right.
She's got it!
After taking a shower, Yu Nianqing wanted to go to the kitchen to put the cake ingredients.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw Hengxing standing awkwardly in front of it, clutching the hem of her clothes, her ears slightly red. I don't know how long she had been standing there.
"What's wrong, Captain Heng?"
"Mr. Yu, do you need to apply medicine to your neck today?"
Author's Note: Hengxing: I hope applying the medicine becomes a routine task, giving me more opportunities to give back to Mr. Yu :D
