Chapter 223: Chapter 222 Unique Fragrance

Setting the machine to the designated program, more than a dozen people gathered around Si Yuting to catch up.

As Si Yuting listened to his former subordinates talk about their work and lives here, it was clear their smiles were even more genuine than before.

Even Lao Liu said that the madam was a very outstanding and good person.

It had only been a few short days...

But his little wife really was likable, as was his mother, his subordinates, Tang Shigui and the others.

Over the past few days, the old soldiers had also become much more familiar with the native inhabitants of the planet.

Two simple-minded aunties, seeing that everyone was there, also boldly stepped forward to chat.

Although Si Yuting kept a straight face throughout, not uttering a single word, he did not leave.

Listening to their expressions of admiration and gratitude for his little wife.

The aunties spoke with a tone of emotion, "We’ve lived on this impoverished resource planet since we were kids, and even the cheapest nutrient solution is hard to come by daily, with all the plants and animals around us being polluted."

"We live at the bottom of society, leading numb lives, often worrying that we might not see the light of day ever again."

"It was the young miss who gave us a life, who gave us jobs, allowing us to eat our fill and dress warmly, and to spend more time online learning."

"Hehe, who would have thought that we ordinary folk could also eat Energy Plants that only wealthy families could afford three times a day!"

"Even if someone gave me money to go to Capital Star, I wouldn’t want to go; I just want to work here for the young miss."

...

Qu Tong slept until she naturally woke up, and when she came out, she saw Si Yuting standing with a group of people.

The tall figure of Si Yuting, like poplars and pines, carried an approachable coldness, and even amidst the crowd, one could spot him at a glance.

Qu Tong walked up to Si Yuting, tilted her head slightly, and smiled softly, "Your Highness, good morning."

Si Yuting remained silent for a moment, "Morning."

Hu Qing and the others exchanged glances, tacitly maintaining silence.

The aunties greeted and went back to their homes or returned to the fields, while Tang Shigui and the others also scattered.

"Thank you for taking them in," Si Yuting’s gaze shifted back from the fields and said earnestly and solemnly.

He owned some businesses, but most of them required physical strength or spiritual power, and considering Tang Shigui and his special circumstances, they had not found suitable positions.

Qu Tong shook her head, "I didn’t take them in; they saw the job posting I made and wanted to work on their own initiative."

"And I was short of help, so it was a mutual need."

Si Yuting looked at Qu Tong, fell silent for a while, and eventually let out a light "Hm" from his throat.

Qu Tong took Si Yuting to a small hill with the best view and stretched out her hand, "Look! Your Highness, this is the sea of flowers I planted for you!"

The warm sunlight shone down, the flowers bloomed brilliantly, the young girl’s lips slightly upturned, laughter in her eyes.

Si Yuting turned to look at Qu Tong, his eyes deep and enigmatic, as if intending to draw someone into them.

Qu Tong stuck out her tongue, "Actually, it’s also because I like them."

"Very beautiful."

His sharp voice contained tenderness that he deliberately softened.

"Didn’t you say you have something for me?" Qu Tong asked in a good mood.

Si Yuting took out a seedling from the Space Button, "This was discovered on Planet A15, and I thought you might like it."

He had eaten the fruit of this plant as a child, very sweet, so when he saw it, he took the time to dig it up.

Although the seedling was a bit polluted, he believed she could grow it.

Qu Tong took it, the seedling’s branches were gray-brown, the oval pointed leaves had wavy edges, and she initially determined it could be a lychee or longan.

Indeed it was a pleasant surprise.

"Your Highness really knows me," Qu Tong playfully threw herself at Si Yuting.

Taken aback by the sudden embrace around his waist, Si Yuting was a little stunned.

Just as she reached out to touch his back, he had already let go.

"I’ll go plant it!"

Qu Tong ran off cheerfully, Si Yuting dropped his hand, and couldn’t help but smile wryly.

By the time she finished planting and returned to the villa, it was almost noon.

Qu Tong sliced a piece of watermelon for Si Yuting and took a bite of her own piece, "Your Highness, what would you like for lunch?"

"Whatever."

Qu Tong suddenly remembered an online recipe, braised "Whatever," stir-fried "Whatever," and couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

Si Yuting looked up at Qu Tong with a questioning gaze.

Qu Tong winked at Si Yuting playfully, "Then I’ll just cook what I like."

"Alright."

Qu Tong spent some time and made three dishes and a soup.

Dry pot cauliflower, stir-fried pork, stir-fried cabbage, and corn rib soup.

Si Yuting actually wanted to help, but with robots at home, Qu Tong let him rest.

Just after lunch, Si Yuting received a communication.

While taking the communication, Si Yuting tidied up the dishes and put them in the dishwasher to clean.

Then he returned to the living room, opened the light computer projection, and the virtual keyboard to start dealing with some matters.

Qu Tong glanced over at Si Yuting and clicked her tongue twice.

So busy! Even taking two days off, he still had to deal with military affairs.

She turned and went to the kitchen, found the frozen potato strips Elder Yuan had prepared, perfect for frying.

Elder Yuan didn’t like ketchup, so he just sprinkled some salt in the starch.

The flavor was also quite good.

Qu Tong sat not far from Si Yuting, snacking while responding to Xu An’s message.

Although there was an unexpected incident during the practical exam, Xu An’s plans hadn’t changed, and he had already set off with He Zhou.

Qu Tong messaged Xu An to be careful and stated that the Void Crystal Stone and the medicine were now his to dispose of as he wished, and she was not in need of these things.

When necessary, money can sway hearts.

She believed Xu An was smart enough to understand what she meant.

Xu An replied with [Thank you].

After exiting the chat interface, she found that Si Yuting had also turned off the light computer projection.

Qu Tong offered a potato strip to Si Yuting’s mouth.

Just as Si Yuting opened his mouth to eat, Qu Tong pulled it back, bit into it herself, leaving half of it out, and looked at Si Yuting provocatively with her head tilted back.

Si Yuting looked deeply into his little wife’s blatantly opened mind.

He moved closer along the couch, slowly lowered his head, and took the remaining half of the potato strip in his mouth, along with those restless lips.

Swallowing the potato strip, he felt like he could swallow the person before him too.

The delicate beauty’s back was against the couch, her head tilted slightly upwards, her long hair cascading behind her ears.

Her brows and eyes were tinged with a faint blush, her half-closed eyes hazy and slightly out of focus.

Si Yuting closed his eyes, his arm hooked around her, deepening the kiss.

The intensified breathing exploded next to Si Yuting’s ear, the girl’s responses were chaotic, yet they sent shivers down his spine.

The girl carried a distinct, fragrant scent, even her tongue tasted sweet.

Just as he was about to lose control, Si Yuting released Qu Tong.

Qu Tong, catching her breath in small gasps, leaned on Si Yuting’s shoulder, and seeing that he wasn’t looking at her, deliberately pressed her head close to his neck, lightly rubbing her nose against his ear, "Your Highness, you don’t have to be so gentlemanly when kissing."
