The Sea of Life is a mysterious area in the universe.
Provided graduation theses for more than 80% of students in the School of Life Sciences.
At the same time, it also provides research topics and research funds for more than 80% of professors.
At its most exaggerated, it can reach up to 90%.
I heard that there was even a cult within the institute that believed in the Sea of Life for a while.
Before every exam, hundreds of students would gather in the grove and recite devoutly:
"Thank you, Sea of Life! For giving us the strength to pass!"
Although the hospital quickly banned it after discovering it.
Shen is indeed not a student of the Academy of Sciences. He is a good materialist who grew up under the influence of the rigorous military theory of the empire.
But after waking up that day, the first words in his mind were actually -
【Thank you, Ocean of Life.】
The rough stone exudes a faint smell of sand.
As long as it is close to him, the smell will envelop him.
Just like...
Like a mark.
…
"Is there a place on Baishaxing where necklaces can be made to order?"
Shen Que asked the maids while they were having breakfast.
The pheromone memory stone lay obediently beside the bone china plate, the sand stained with the fragrant scent of egg custard.
"It's best to be able to inlay it, without drilling holes." Shen Que said.
"That's too much!"
Demi perked up immediately.
As the head maid responsible for all decoration expenses in Chenxing Palace, she knew all about this.
"The inlay technique is very common. It depends on what method you prefer, madam."
"The craftsmen in the oasis tend to be more academic, and their methods are more disciplined. In the desert, they're more free-spirited and can accommodate many unusual requests. The only downside is that their aesthetic can be a bit... avant-garde."
"Good craftsmen are usually found around the First Oasis and the Desert Tavern. I happen to know an old craftsman who is right there..."
Shen Que lowered his head in thought, his slender fingers stroking the rough stone.
Demi, who was talking nonstop, suddenly stopped.
She suddenly realized something.
"Ma'am, you're not going to have this stone made into a custom necklace, are you?"
Shen Que glanced at her and asked, "Is there any problem?"
“Hmm…”
Demi glanced at the rough stone with disdain.
"Madam, although this is something the admiral sent back, it is... too ugly... not transparent at all. You will be laughed at if you wear it."
Shen Que laughed: "Really?"
Demi said, "Of course! You are the wife of the young lord, so you need at least an S+ grade gem to be worthy of your status!"
"The Admiral still has some gemstones left from the Golden Butterfly Auction. If you want to make a new necklace, I'll get them for you right away..."
"No thanks." Shen Que refused calmly, his eyes fixed on the stone in his hand, "I like this."
That's what I said.
After breakfast, Demi still didn't give up and took out a few gems and introduced them to Shen Que one by one.
"Look at this, it's S++ grade pigeon blood red. It matches the one you wore between your eyebrows before."
"Even with appraisal-grade artificial sunlight, I can't see a single impurity. It's definitely better looking than that ugly stone!"
"And this one, S+++ grade sea mica. At that time, the wife of the lord of Tianfu Star offered 70 million but still couldn't beat the admiral."
"Mrs. Ai Fan doesn't even have an S+++ grade gem!"
…
"Why is he taking pictures of so many gems?"
Shen Que suddenly became curious.
Demi's introduction just now cost him all the salary he earned as a commander for ten years.
"To choose a wedding gift for you." Demi said as a matter of course.
Shen Que was stunned: "Give it to me?"
His eyes finally fell seriously on the sparkling gems.
"Yes."
Demi picked up the S+++ grade sea mica worth 70 million star coins.
"I was originally going to make earrings for you, but when I asked the main star, they said you didn't have pierced ears, so it's been left unused."
"...I really don't wear earrings." Shen Que took the translucent stone from Demi's hand and looked at it through the sunlight outside the window.
Dust particles surround the flawless crystals.
Like the ionized gas slowly drifting in a nebula, you can feel the light with just a hand.
"So he picked it out in the end?" Shen Que asked.
"No!" Demi sighed heavily. "He said he's not good enough for you."
Shen Que suddenly smiled, and his cold eyes were tinged with the color of warm sunshine.
"These could buy ten of me."
The sound of footsteps came closer and Phil poked his head out of the door.
"Ma'am, are you free? Someone from the General Services Administration is here and wants to see you urgently."
…
"postpone?"
Shen Que put down the report in his hand, crossed his fingers on his knees, and scanned the people who came over one by one with his cold eyes, waiting for their explanation.
"This batch of goods is crucial to whether Master Lan He's new work can be released on time. We can't delay it!"
Gabi, who was standing at the front, was very excited.
"Messiah's Mecha Research Center is a major client of ours. Not only will we offend this client, but we'll also have to pay a hefty penalty. It's definitely a huge loss! The lord will definitely hold them accountable!"
"You wouldn't want such a big problem to arise right after taking over the ore business!"
"But there's something wrong with the mineral's identification results!"
Xingyao, who was standing one step behind Gabi, retorted.
He was wearing the General Services Administration uniform today: a wide-sleeved robe on the outside, a neat shirt and trousers on the inside, an emerald hanging from his bow tie, and emerald pine earrings.
Her long golden braid fell to her waist.
