Although she pilots the mecha in combat, she's still at the stage of children fighting.
However, this is already a great improvement for Lin Xue!
Time flies when you're studying. By the time Lin Xue was able to team up with 629 to fight other people, the weekend had arrived before she knew it.
"Lin Xue was woken up early in the morning by 629, who had the robot assistant prepare some food for her before she boarded her private starship."
These private starships are much smaller than real starships, but they are more than enough to accommodate a hundred or so people.
The main reason was that the starship had better protection and was faster than the spaceship, so Lin Jiuyuan insisted that she take the starship out.
In this interstellar era where every family owns a planet, apart from the common people who still gather on the same planet, any family with some power will buy a separate planet to live on.
In fact, inhabited planets are very easy to identify; if you see a dome on it, it means that people live there.
Lin Xue glanced at the message and saw that Kerry and the others had already set off. She decided not to delay any longer and had the robot assistant pilot the starship towards Crystal City.
The two groups met up halfway through their journey. Kerry and his cousin left his spaceship and arrived at Lin Xue's starship.
"I'm so envious that you've gotten your own starship so quickly!"
Once aboard the starship, Kerry toured Lin Xue's starship, his eyes filled with envy!
"This is my 18th birthday present from my dad. Isn't it cool!"
Lin Xue led the two on a tour of the starship for a while before taking them to the restaurant.
"My grandpa sent me some food a while ago, and my dad knew I was going out with my classmates today, so he asked me to bring some with me!"
"I'd like to invite you to try my robot assistant's cooking; I'm sure you'll love it!"
Upon entering the restaurant, Lin Xue waved to her robot assistant and instructed it to bring up the prepared food.
"You've really gone to so much trouble. Food is a luxury; even with star coins, there's no way to buy it!"
Kerry's cousin was a very calm and steady young man who always stayed by Kerry's side and rarely spoke.
It wasn't until Lin Xue invited them to try the food that he finally couldn't help but say his first words upon arriving here.
"It's alright, Dea!"
“Kerry is my best friend, so of course I’d like to share the best things with him!”
As soon as Lin Xue finished speaking, the robot assistant brought over a plate of apple pie.
One after another, the little robots brought out several plates, each containing exquisite food.
Some were sweet shortbread cookies, some were cut fruit, and others were cookies made into various shapes.
Finally, there were three large glasses of juice.
"Please don't be shy, both of you. Please have a taste; these are delicious dishes that our robot assistant just made!"
After the food was served, Lin Xue immediately urged the two to start eating.
Faced with such a feast, the two of them were unsure whether to start eating.
After all, food is a luxury for the Star People. Even a small apple has been sold at an exorbitant price, let alone a whole table of delicious food.
The aroma of the food wafted into their nostrils in waves, making them feel as if tiny insects were scratching at their hearts, and they couldn't wait to stuff the food into their mouths.
However, their good manners kept them from making a move.
"Eat quickly, this food won't taste good when it gets cold!"
Seeing that neither of them made a move, Lin Xue had no choice but to reach out and pick up a piece of apple pie from the plate herself.
She took a bite, and the sweet taste hit her taste buds. She couldn't help but close her eyes and savor the sweetness.
Seeing Lin Xue enjoying herself, Kerry finally couldn't resist the temptation of the food and reached out to take a piece of apple pie, carefully putting it into his mouth.
With just a small sip, he felt that his whole life had been fulfilled.
The taste was truly indescribable to him; it was a flavor that no nutritional supplement could replicate.
Seeing his cousin make a move, Dea stopped restraining himself and reached out to take a piece of apple pie as well, slowly eating it.
Soon, apart from the sound of chewing food, there was no other movement at the table.
All three enjoyed the meal, especially the brothers Kerry and Dea.
Although they are pampered at home, this is the first time they have been able to eat so freely.
Even though their family would prepare these things for them, they would only buy them an apple or a pear as a birthday gift each year.
The food available to their family was simply insufficient to produce such exquisite pastries.
The aroma of wheat emanating from the shortbread was a scent they had never encountered before.
There was also cheese on the apple pie, which neither of them knew what.
"Miss Lin Xue, your food is absolutely delicious!"
"I have no idea what kind of powerful family your grandfather comes from, that he would be able to send you such delicious food!"
Dea looked at Lin Xue with envy. Why didn't he have such a powerful relative?
"Actually, my maternal grandfather's family isn't that powerful, but he knows a website where you can buy food!"
“He bought all these things from that website, and now our family also buys things from that website. There are many kinds of food there, and the prices are much cheaper than in the market!”
As she spoke, Lin Xue took out her personal computer, logged into a small e-commerce website, and opened one of the shops. She saw the shelves filled with vegetables, fruits, and grains.
"The items in this shop sell very well; they're almost always sold out shortly after they're put on the shelves. Now, all that's left are some foods that people don't usually have access to!"
"This round, grayish thing we see is called a potato. Whether you steam it in a pot, boil it, or peel it, cut it into chunks, and stew it with meat, it's an extremely rare delicacy!"
"That's why there's some left over—because many people don't know how to eat it!"
Lin Xue browsed through the store's inventory, and most of them were out of stock.
However, as can be seen from the pictures above, they are all fresh vegetables and fruits.
This left the two friends speechless; they had no idea there was such a shop where they could buy organic food.
The two quickly took out their personal computers, found the e-commerce website, and marked it.
"My goodness, we didn't even know there was a place to buy food! And the prices are incredibly cheap!"
The cheapness they mentioned was only relative to the prices of food available in the market.
However, compared to the value of the food itself, their prices are simply astronomical.
For example, these remaining potatoes, each weighing about half a pound, cost 1.5 million Star Coins!
In Lin Xue's view, this price was no different from profiteering during a crisis.
