Chapter 121: Fashion is a Circle

When Huo Junze said this, Ruan Mian only felt her heart lean completely toward his side.

This man was handsome, considerate, and so good with words; who wouldn't be dazed by this!

Then it was only natural for her heart to soften.

"Then I'll buy the house first, you teach me how to operate it in a moment!"

That small villa she had her eye on last time was out of reach; it was truly a bit too expensive.

Over five million, she didn't have that much money right now.

Buying a simple little cabin-style house with a few extra rooms would be better than this tin house no matter what.

Although the price wasn't cheap, it was still within what she could afford.

She bought it in a flash, her heart bleeding just a little!

She could only comfort herself.

It's fine, it's fine, money is meant to be spent anyway!

This kind of compressed house is truly very useful; just press the open button and it becomes a sturdy house.

If there had been houses like this during the apocalypse, who knows how many people could have been saved!

Huo Junze also finished setting up the protective light shield, and the small cabin was placed directly in front of the tin house, turning the back into a large courtyard.

It just so happened she planned to buy a few more pigs and raise some other animals, so she wouldn't need to build anything else.

When she turned her head to say something to Huo Junze and saw what had fallen onto his head, she couldn't help but curve her brows and eyes.

He only felt that when he was by her side, he felt incomparably relaxed.

When she smiled, it seemed like this world was okay again.

"What is it?"

Ruan Mian beckoned to him, and he lowered his head, cooperating perfectly with her hand.

A leaf, broken in half, was pinched between her fingertips.

"Red flowers should be paired with green leaves; it seems you are a red flower too~"

Just as her teasing words finished, he raised his arm, and a pink silk flower was tucked behind his ear.

It made her look even more delicate than the flower.

Although she still looked like a scrawny bean sprout.

"It suits you, very pretty."

His gaze was somewhat scorching, making one blush and heart race; she didn't know if he was talking about the flower or her.

Or perhaps both were very pretty.

That was a bit shameless, so she would just assume he was complimenting the flower!

"Ahem, well, I'm planning to buy two more pigs and get some other things, so I'll go get busy first..."

"Why are you buying pigs again?"

"One pig is a bit too few, and look, it only grew that little bit of meat at the very end. Anyway, raising one is raising, raising a few more is also raising; it's all just a matter of convenience."

Besides, she wasn't short on food to feed them, and she had 917 to help; she basically didn't have to do much, so she might as well raise them.

She could be considered to have opened up a new track for Simulation Humans: the great cause of Simulation Humans raising pigs.

"Why do you have to raise so many?"

Huo Junze was a bit surprised; if it were raising chickens, he could understand.

After all, the eggs laid by the chickens she raised made for delicious dishes.

Tomato scrambled eggs, her inner love.

But these pigs, he couldn't quite understand; they ate so much, and if they didn't get fed past mealtime, they would just be there oinking and squealing—that sound was simply ear-piercing.

They were truly useless.

"I just feel, wouldn't this be too tiring?"

Ruan Mian waved her hand, "How would I be tired? Isn't there 917? Actually, he does most of the work; I just need to give him instructions."

Thinking of those meat dishes.

She couldn't help but want to drool.

"One pig is really too few; raise more so there will be food to eat later!"

He wasn't sure, could this thing really be eaten? Was it really delicious?

However, he had caught another opportunity to show off.

He immediately pulled two large boxes out from his Light Brain.

They were square and almost as tall as him.

Ruan Mian was stunned for a moment, "What is this?"

She didn't know what he pressed, but the boxes opened, revealing two women who looked very gentle with their eyes tightly closed.

"This, this, this..."

The word "trafficking" hadn't even left her lips when a thought flashed through her mind—this was the Interstellar!

These must be Simulation Humans.

"Why did you suddenly buy Simulation Humans?"

"I bought them for you."

He reached out and pulled her wrist, focusing intently on fiddling with her Light Brain.

Everything around them became incomparably quiet, with only the thumping of a heart beating strongly, as if it were about to jump out of her chest.

Thump-thump, thump-thump, thump-thump.

Her senses were infinitely magnified, all her attention placed on her wrist, able to clearly feel his slightly cool fingertips gently brushing against her skin.

It felt as if that area had been rubbed until it was burning hot and trembling.

She couldn't help but want to escape.

"Alright."

A small panel had already appeared on the Light Brain, containing not only 917's information but also two additional entries.

One was named Xiao Hong, and the other was named Xiao Fang.

These names... it seems the fashion world really is a circle.

"These names are truly good."

Following a wake-up command, the two female Simulation Humans opened their eyes; the girl with shoulder-length hair was called Xiao Hong, and the one with a braided ponytail was called Xiao Fang.

This character design is truly very profound.

"They are both housekeeping-type Simulation Humans; they are meticulous, very considerate, and have good endurance and load-bearing capacity. They are the most suitable for helping you with tasks."

"Is this alright?"

Simulation Humans are really not cheap!

After all, now that she had bought a house, she really couldn't scrape together any money to buy Simulation Humans.

"Why wouldn't it be?"

A trace of grievance appeared on Huo Junze's aloof face, as if she had committed some heinous act of abandoning her husband and children.

When did she ever abandon him?

"You can accept 917, why can't you accept Xiao Hong and Xiao Fang? To be precise, they should be considered employees; you cannot refuse them, I am an ally!"

By the end, he even used a bit of forcefulness, acting somewhat like a rascal, insisting that she accept them.

It was as if a corner of a mysterious veil had been lifted, allowing her to glimpse another side of him.

She nodded obediently.

"Mm, I know, I will make good use of them~"

Interstellar Command

Qin Xiulin flipped through the chat box with the shop owner of the hot food shop.

He had sent several messages, but they remained in an unread state by the other party.

This meant that the other party hadn't even looked at the private messages at all, and he couldn't contact her.

"Report, sir!"

The office door was knocked, and Zhou Rui's voice rang out in the quiet, pulling back his thoughts.

When he looked up, his expression was not very good.

"What is it? Speak."

"Apologies, sir, we did not manage to snatch any Boxed Meal from that shop, nor were we able to contact the owner."

They had even used the military's name, yet the other side still ignored them.

Qin Xiulin's brows furrowed deeply, filled with irritation.

It seems that contacting her via the Light Brain is not possible.

"You all continue to contact the Huo family; it would be best if you can facilitate a cooperation. Tell them they had better cooperate properly!"

Otherwise, they wouldn't mind using a bit of force.

After speaking, he picked up the controller on the table and prepared to head outside.

"Sir, where are you going? Do you need a security detail?"

"No need, just make sure to clean up my tracks!"
