Chapter 48
Ji Wenxue felt a sense of wonder as she listened, and at the same time, a surge of pride rose. If it was Sister Wandi who ordered this, then such a result wouldn't be surprising.
Moving a planet is extremely energy-intensive. Besides requiring a significant amount of energy for propulsion, the impact on the planet itself is also significant. Therefore, this method is generally not chosen unless absolutely necessary.
However, since the establishment of the planet Mouth Star, a special method has been used to connect the respiratory systems of all the residents of the planet with the planet. Therefore, when everyone breathes together, the planet seems to be a companion, responding with the same frequency.
The communication between the planet mother and the planet's residents is like an echo echoing the original sound, and it is in perfect harmony.
After determining the direction, the speed of progress seemed to increase. Ji Wenxue calculated the distance in her mind and said happily: "I think we can reach the destination today!"
A smile appeared on his lips, "That's great."
As they were almost there, Ji Wenxue couldn't help but call Wandi again. 3D images of the sisters quickly appeared before her. They were all sitting on the sofas on the first floor. The meticulously processed digital images made it seem as if they were sitting face to face.
"We'll be there soon!" Ji Wenxue couldn't help but smile so much that her eyes curved.
"Okay, we've been looking forward to it!" Wandi replied with a smile. Then she picked up a small orange from the table. The bright yellow orange looked very fresh. "Yao Si found it. We all tried it and it tasted very good."
"This is specially reserved for you! Be sure to eat it when you come back!" Yao Si immediately moved his head in front of the orange and said.
Ji Wenxue nodded, then looked at the orange carefully again and said hesitantly: "But the skin seems to be a little sour..." She felt it at first glance, and she felt more certain when Yao Si spoke.
But sister Wandi also said so, and she couldn't help but suspect that maybe she didn't see it clearly, and maybe it was a new variety?
"Ah, the surface, it might be the fault of the electronic equipment. It looks perfect from our side!" Yao Si quickly popped his head out to guarantee.
So, Ji Wenxue returned with full of expectations, peeled the skin as skillfully and quickly as a monkey, and threw the whole thing into her mouth.
I could still hear the crowd's voices of "Good!" "Good!" "Good!" "Keep going!" "Sisters!"
Perhaps it was because of these cheers that Ji Wenxue was overwhelmed and ignored all doubts. She rolled up her sleeves, peeled the orange, and put it into her mouth.
As her teeth bit through the bulging skin, the juice inside gushed out in all directions, some of it flowing smoothly into her throat. Only then did Ji Wenxue realize something was wrong.
So sour!!
She sucked her saliva, oh my god, it’s even more sour!
Then everyone burst into unconcealed laughter. Ji Wenxue, adhering to the principle of not wasting food, ate it despite the taste. Then she burst into laughter too. "No wonder, you all pretended to enjoy it to trick me!" Then she remembered what had just happened.
As soon as Ji Wenxue came back, she gave everyone a big hug. Then she saw a small orange standing out on the table and asked, "Is this for me?"
Yao Si nodded as if a motor was installed in his head, "Yes, yes, it's yours!" The smile in his eyes deepened, and he almost couldn't hold it in anymore. He quickly turned around and ran to the toilet, fearing that he would be exposed.
Seeing Yao Si's intense reaction, Ji Wenxue picked it up suspiciously, and her previously relaxed heart was lifted again. But before she could ask a question, she saw Jiang Zouwei pull out an identical one from some pocket, peel it, and eat it without changing her expression.
This behavior immediately convinced Ji Wenxue. She also followed Jiang Zouwei's example and swallowed it in one gulp.
Everyone burst into laughter. Wandi checked her watch and said, "I'm going to Mouth Star." Since Mouth Star was her planet, there was no reason to leave it alone. She would not only manage it, but also manage it well.
"I'm going," Jiang Zouwei said immediately. Her passageway had finally been completed, and it was a good time to go out for a change of pace.
"I'm going too, I'm going too!" Yao Si raised her hands high. She loved joining in the fun. She grabbed Ji Wenxue, who was still chewing, and said, "Wenxue, you're going too, right?"
Ji Wenxue nodded and tried to speed up the movement of her cheeks. It was so sour that she felt her teeth were going to fall out. However, the more she ate, the more she felt that it was delicious in an indescribable way.
Ying Zhao had just thought about it, and now it was just the right time to announce, "My money just happened to be back, I'll treat everyone to a meal!"
"Okay, Sister Ying Zhao loves you!" Yao Si responded immediately.
"I feel so embarrassed..." Ji Wenxue finally finished eating the tangerine and was about to say a few polite words when Yao Si next to her interrupted her.
"Excuse me, Wenxue, you can just watch us eat from the side!"
"What? I haven't finished yet. Of course I want to eat!" Ji Wenxue quickly retorted. The feeling of playing and joking with Yao Si suddenly returned to her familiar feeling.
Wan Di and Jiang Zou smiled and walked ahead.
"This Mouth Star uses the grand event for democratic elections. It seems like he is electing a president, but in fact it looks like he is putting a hapless guy in office." Jiang Zouwei felt something was wrong as early as when Mouth Star participated in the grand event.
The president seemed to have a lot of power, but in reality, the things he could influence were only minor matters. She was actually a little surprised that Wandi agreed.
Wandi was not surprised to hear this. "Maybe it was the case with the previous president, but since it's me now, I will change everything." She didn't want to play the game of being a supreme puppet. If she wanted to do something, she had to hold on to the real power.
Jiang Zouwei frowned a little worriedly, "But, after all, we are outsiders. The people there might find it difficult to accept some things, right?"
We chatted happily all the way, and when we got to the restaurant, we talked while eating delicious food. Everyone enjoyed such a relaxing and comfortable time.
"Let's go for a walk after dinner. It'll help us digest the food," Ying Zhao said, looking out the window at the beautiful weather. She wasn't one to make decisions, especially in a group. She was used to listening to others' suggestions and going along with their preferences. This "good behavior" used to be a sign of her maturity, and she was always praised.
Ying Zhao always smiled when she heard the compliments, but she often felt sad in her heart. She tried her best to meet everyone's needs, but no one ever cared about her feelings.
She had no choice but to rationalize everything. However, that was just self-deception. It was only after meeting Wan Di, Zou Wei, Yao Si, Wen Xue, and the other sisters that she gradually realized that getting along with friends was not just about compromise.
"Shopping? Great! Let me think about it, I haven't been shopping since the last time we went to the Department Store Star." Yao Si said, patting his full stomach. "Then I have to think about what I want to buy."
Ji Wenxue listened to Yao Si's straightforward words and comfortable expression, and suddenly straightened up from the back of her chair. "Oh, right, your money..."
Yao Si waved his hand and smiled from ear to ear when he thought about it, "I went to help out at the gold mine. Now I'm a millionaire!"
"There's so much money over there!" Ji Wenxue was surprised. Yao Si was known for her lavish spending, so if she said that, it must be a huge sum of money. Ji Wenxue glanced at Wan Di again as she spoke.
"Oh, by the way, you were sent to Zuiba Star at that time. Didn't we agree to make a deal with the snake group before, but a few days ago, the snakes suddenly changed their minds. The gold mine we agreed to build for them was closed, and the passage we built for them was also occupied." After a few days, Yao Si still gritted his teeth when talking about this matter.
"Ah, how could this happen?" Ji Wenxue felt furious after hearing this.
"At that time, a snake suddenly jumped to the windowsill and picked up a leaf. I was scared to death by the sight of that creature's head." Ying Zhao also shared.
Wandi didn't join the conversation; she was looking at something on the screen, clicking on it from time to time. Jiang Zouwei was also watching, and the two of them were discussing in low voices.
"But, thankfully, Wandi was there! She took the leaves and went to the appointment. The place the snakes had agreed to meet was in the tropical rainforest. Wandi was walking in the quiet rainforest when she suddenly saw a giant python appear in front of her. This giant python was over ten meters long and so thick that it would take two people to hug it. The dark green, light green, and brown patterns on its body made it almost blend in with the rainforest. It was staring intently..."
Yao Si spoke vividly, like a storyteller, and Ji Wenxue and Ying Zhao beside him listened with great interest. Ji Wenxue had been sipping her drink from the cup, but now she had stopped sipping, her mind completely focused on the ups and downs of Yao Si's story.
On the other side, Wan Di and Jiang Zou Wei were sitting together and selecting materials.
"This material is thin and light enough, but its defense is too low. Using it on a person is no different from putting a plastic bag on them," Wandi complained, not yet satisfied. "And they dare to charge such a high price. What fool would buy it?"
As soon as Wandi finished speaking, the number on the page clearly changed from 0 sold to 1 sold.
“…”
Wan Di and Jiang Zouwei looked at each other and smiled silently.
"It seems there are still fools out there," Jiang Zouwei commented, scrolling through the pages. "This material is good, with first-rate protection. Although it's bulky, it's actually an advantage when used on mechas. Furthermore, it's been eliminated from the market, and the price is very cheap."
Wan Di nodded. She and Jiang Zouwei agreed. The endless stream of new products often consisted of minor tweaks, either adding more functions or varying colors. The all-important offensive and defensive aspects remained largely unchanged.
The arrival of Mouth Star is not only a support for them, but also makes Wan Di realize that although their planet is located in a remote area, as it develops, other people will inevitably come soon.
Whether it's friend or foe, one's own Kung Fu must be strong first. So now, improving everyone's combat effectiveness is the top priority.
