Chapter 70: Chapter 55: Damn It, Where Did This Damn Guy Learn These Green Tea Tactics?

The dairy cows were ready to be milked.

Even the fish and shrimp in the pond were about ready for the pan.

’Wow, eggs, milk, big fish and shrimp... so much delicious food! Once we get back from this mission, I’m going to make cake, ice cream, spicy crawfish, spicy fish, grilled fish...’

Si Xie had been watching her the whole time.

When she first closed her eyes, he thought she was about to fall asleep. But then, a long list of dish names suddenly echoed in his mind.

It was her thoughts.

Listening to the names of the dishes, even though he had never eaten any of them, Si Xie couldn’t help but salivate.

’It’s been days since I’ve had her cooking. I have such a craving for it!’

She said she would cook when they got back after the mission, but there was no telling how many days this mission would take.

Si Xie swallowed wistfully and reached out to hook his finger around her pinky.

No wonder she had all those ingredients. Turns out, she had a pocket-dimension farm linked to her mind.

Not only could the farm grow crops, but they also matured incredibly quickly. The sweet fruits she’d given them before had come from that farm.

On top of that, she could raise animals there, and they grew just as absurdly fast as the crops.

Truly incredible.

Feeling a tug on her finger, Jiang Yunnuan pulled her consciousness back from her farm and turned to look at him.

"What’s wrong?"

"I’m hungry!"

He answered honestly, his face practically begging to be fed. The sight made Jiang Yunnuan feel utterly helpless.

"Didn’t we bring Energy Liquid?"

"I don’t want Energy Liquid. I want real food."

Jiang Yunnuan: "..."

"In your dreams. We’re on the road. You think I don’t want to eat too? But look at our surroundings. How are we supposed to make a decent meal here?"

’I have a grill and cooking utensils in my dimension, and all the ingredients I need... but how could I possibly use them inside this Flying Device?’

"Fruit is fine too. Do you have any more? I’d like some strawberries and bananas."

Si Xie blinked. He knew, of course, that a proper meal was impossible under the circumstances; he had just said it on a whim.

His real goal was the fruit.

The fruit might not be as satisfying as a full meal, but its Energy was comparable, and it was countless times more potent than Energy Liquid.

Jiang Yunnuan: "..."

’I do have some, but it’s all in my pocket dimension. How do you expect me to just pull it out of thin air?’

’And after I take it out, how would I explain it?’

’Not only would my secret be exposed, but you guys would probably start questioning who I really am. How can I possibly take it out?!’

’I did slip up and almost expose myself in front of Ming Ye last time, but it was an emergency. He never asked about it, so he probably didn’t notice. Things are different now.’

’If I make something appear out of thin air right in front of you, you think you’d just let it slide?’

’Who knows what kind of trouble that would cause!’

’I can’t take it out!’

Si Xie: "..."

’All right, that was a bit rash of me.’

He knew her secrets thanks to his Mind Reading, but no one else did. And she had no idea what he was capable of, either. Her concerns were completely normal.

"I was just saying. If you don’t have any, forget it."

A smile touched the corners of his lips.

The thought that he was the only one who knew her secret made his mood soar.

Seeing him be so considerate, Jiang Yunnuan actually felt bad. An idea involving her bag suddenly popped into her head.

’I’ve got it! I brought my bag with me this time, right? I’ll just pretend to take the fruit out of my bag!’

Si Xie: "..."

"I do have some. Wait a moment."

She got up, went to the back row, and emptied the contents of her bag onto a recliner. By the time she returned to her seat, the bag was stuffed full of fruit.

In addition to apples, bananas, and strawberries, there were also cherries and blueberries that she had planted later on.

Things produced in her dimension didn’t need to be washed at all.

"Here, have some."

Jiang Yunnuan gave him a share, then passed some to Jun Yao, and to Ming Ye and Fu Yuan up front.

Staring at the bag in her arms, a dark look flashed across Jun Yao’s eyes. He had been holding that bag for her before they boarded the Flying Device.

He had checked it. It had been filled with Energy Liquid and some wet wipes. How had it all turned into fruit?

This woman was definitely full of secrets.

As the group ate the sweet fruit, a sense of bliss washed over them.

They never imagined they would get to taste anything other than Energy Liquid in their entire lives.

Munching on an apple, Jiang Yunnuan closed her eyes and let her consciousness enter her dimension again.

This time, she entered the sign-in interface.

The cumulative sign-in for Day 13 showed a broken streak, which meant she couldn’t sign in today.

If she could just reach a 15-day cumulative sign-in streak, she would get another small random surprise.

Therefore, the cumulative count couldn’t be reset. She had to complete a random challenge to make up for the missed day.

If she successfully made up for it, she could then do today’s sign-in task upon reaching their destination. That would net her two rewards at once, followed by the small random surprise for the 15-day cumulative sign-in tomorrow.

’I wonder what this random challenge will be.’

’If it’s anything like last time, it’ll be terrifying!’

The thought of the last insane random challenge made Jiang Yunnuan’s skin crawl.

But the two rewards were too generous to resist. They tempted her wildly, and with the added promise of tomorrow’s small random surprise, the tiny bit of fear in her heart was instantly banished.

She was full of motivation!

’The rewards are so great. No matter how hard this random challenge is, I’ll definitely complete it.’

’Besides, maybe this challenge will be simple. Come on, Golden Carp Luck, do your thing! Don’t be so useless that it’s like I don’t even have you!’

Her thoughts echoed in his mind again. Si Xie listened intently, not missing a single word.

A random challenge?

Rewards?

Golden Carp Luck?

Was all of this related to that system of hers, too?

Jiang Yunnuan was completely oblivious to the fact that her secrets were being broadcast.

She accepted the random challenge with a thought, and a mission prompt immediately sounded in her mind.

[Random Challenge: The host must passionately kiss any one of the potential love interests for ten minutes. Time limit: twenty minutes.]

Jiang Yunnuan: "..."

After a moment of silence, her thoughts rang out once more.

’This challenge is actually pretty simple. All I have to do is kiss someone passionately for ten minutes. But the problem is, all these guys are right here. Who the hell am I supposed to kiss for ten minutes?’
