Chapter 29

It seems this crowd only looked at Ye Xi'an, completely failing to notice the person placing this wooden board.

They shouted at the crowd: 'Look at the wooden board!'

Upon hearing this, the crowd immediately looked at the wooden board; the moment they saw its content, the crowd began to stir, the desire in their eyes tangible, and the first beastman stepped forward to purchase.

They wore a tight black leather outfit; if a person from Diqiu wore it, it would definitely be a disaster scene for a spirited youth, but on a beastman it reveals the male's perfect physique and impressive endowment.

The black-clothed male blushed, staring unblinkingly at Ye Xi'an; the female up close looked even more beautiful: 'I want to buy ten thousand.'

Yi Yang rolled his eyes at the male's lecherous look, knowing none of these males were any good.

He gestured backward: 'Go buy at the back, come pay after you're done.'

The black-clothed beastman, without lifting his head at those words, continued to stare at Ye Xi'an and said casually.

'Just grab something randomly for me, I'll pay directly.'

Yi Yang was about to say no, you can't just take things randomly, but Ji Jiangci cut him off.

'No problem, I'll randomly grab some for you.'

Then Ji Jiangci actually grabbed a handful: ten blueberries, five strawberries, and a lychee with worm eyes, not even filling half the bag.

Ji Jiangci handed the fruit to the black-clothed male, forcing a smile: 'Please pay, ten thousand.'

The black-clothed beastman took the fruit, extending a hand like a shy daughter-in-law, voice so soft it could choke a mosquito: 'I'll use Manual Payment.'

He gave Ye Xi'an a flirtatious glance, hoping the female could understand his subtext: he's still single.

Ye Xi'an felt awkward by his lovestruck demeanor, barely managing a smile as she raised her hand to accept his payment.

The black-clothed male looked at Ye Xi'an's snow-white fingertips, shyly biting his lower lip as he hesitantly touched his fingers to hers.

Then, as if shocked, he quickly pulled his hand back, cradling it to his chest like a treasure.

Ye Xi'an was at a loss for words, not expecting a true sucker: 'Well, you can talk to me now.'

The black-clothed male stammered: 'Hello, I... I... my name is Ling Chang.'

'Four sentences.'

Bao Jing reminded the black-clothed male expressionlessly.

'Ah? I only said one sentence, right?'

Bao Jing said nothing, just kept reminding: 'Six sentences.'

The black-clothed male:!!!! Does a comma count as a sentence too!

With only four sentences left, the black-clothed male had planned this for a long time before speaking: 'I like you, I want to marry you, my communicator ID is, my nickname is Ling Dang Hao Shuai! I....

Bao Jing immediately stopped him: 'Alright, ten sentences.'

The black-clothed male resentfully glared at Bao Jing: 'This is basically a black-market shop; didn't you study classical literature in school? Clearly only a period counts as a sentence.'

Ye Xi'an also thought Bao Jing was going too far—who counts a sentence like that?

Ye Xi'an nervously smiled at the beastman: 'Alright, I heard you; I'll add you when I have time.'

The beastman's face brightened like a roller coaster ride, and he said to Ji Jiangci: 'Give me another one million!'

Ye Xi'an almost fell off the bench—no way, someone actually buys one million? He dares to buy, she dares not sell! Only Ji Jiangci, that business genius, could come up with such a nasty trick.

Ji Jiangci swiftly pulled out a plastic bag, scooping a full bag from the fruit pile: 'Here you go.'

The beastman casually took it, eyes fixed eagerly on the seated Ye Xi'an.

'Can I hug you now?'

Bao Jing clenched his fists, molars grinding, as Ji Jiangci's terrible idea showed—he'd make money off anything.

'Of course!'

Ye Xi'an suppressed her inner excitement—this was one million! What's the difference from winning the lottery? One hug and she'd be rich!

The black-clothed beastman bent down, gently encircling Ye Xi'an in his arms, trembling all over; being close, he even caught her natural fragrance, intoxicating.

'Hey hey hey, just a hug—let go, why squeeze so hard?'

Yi Yang pulled them apart, tidying Ye Xi'an's hair and clothes, which the beastman had messed up.

The black-clothed beastman sheepishly let go, standing there foolishly, neither leaving nor doing anything else.

Ji Jiangci walked over with the wooden board, asking: 'We still have a ten‑million package—interested in hearing more?'

The beastman looked at his account, only fifty thousand left—this fifty thousand was saved for buying missions; he laughed embarrassedly. Although the female's kiss was tempting, he simply couldn't afford it.

He ventured: 'Can I put it on credit?'

Bao Jing couldn't take it anymore, shouting at the beastman: 'Get lost!'

After the beastman left, Bao Jing rubbed his throbbing forehead: 'Ji Jiangci, why do you have to do this? Ye Xi'an is our wife.'

While packing the bag, Ji Jiangci paused, stood up, and looked at Bao Jing in surprise: 'When did you start caring about her so much? Have you really fallen for her?'

Bao Jing suddenly panicked, putting on a tough front: 'Who likes her? She loves beating people, lazy and sloppy, with a terrible temper—if I liked her, I'd be haunted.'

'But she's changed recently, hasn't she?'

Ji Jiangci smiled, his cyan glass-like pupils seeming able to see through the other's every thought.

Bao Jing fell silent in an instant, not wanting to continue discussing the issue with Ji Jiangci, and turned back to Ye Xi'an's side.

The beastmen around them, seeing that the one in black tight leather clothing had so easily embraced the little female, all became eager to try.

Give me ten million!

The speaking beastman wore a black-and-white Federation uniform, similar in style to the one seen earlier in the clothing store, but this one was inlaid with black gemstones, obviously valuable.

Besides, this person looks fierce and menacing; wearing this uniform makes him look like a military thug, whereas Bao Jing looks much better in it.

Ji Jiangci recognized the stone; it is the energy blast stone recently heavily promoted by the Zhu Shen System, which can burst forth with powerful force when the wearer suffers fatal injury, this force can directly kill the opponent, thereby allowing the wearer to survive, and its price has been hyped to astronomical levels—one piece costs one hundred million Contribution Points.

Ji Jiangci glanced over the comer with a casual look; although the person might have earned some money by taking on missions, it was absolutely impossible for them to earn a hundred million to buy a lifesaving stone.

On Zhu Shen Xing, one reason females' status is esteemed is because they possess dual Mental and Space System abilities.

The Mental System can help the family efficiently locate high-value materials and energy on unfamiliar planets, and then using the Space System, transport large quantities of these back.

This also causes the family's income to increase; in order to protect the females, it is indeed possible to spend one hundred million to buy energy blast stones.
