So another game started.
Qingyao learns things really fast. Even though it was his first time playing, and he was at a disadvantage at first, he quickly overpowered Mu Yu and Tu Aotian.
Mu Yu & Rabbit Aotian: QAQ I have no gaming experience at all.
Qingyao licked his lips with lingering satisfaction, leaving a ring of vibrant color. He hadn't forgotten why he came here.
Mu Yu felt uneasy under Qing Yao's gaze and couldn't help but shift his position to the side.
Qingyao conjured up a large box from somewhere, tied with ribbons and topped with a bow.
"This was specially prepared for you, take it."
This box is at least 70 or 80 centimeters long and wide, and about 30 or 40 centimeters high. It's quite heavy to lift.
Mu Yu took it from Qing Yao's hand and subconsciously gave it a shake. Goodness, it was incredibly heavy, and it didn't make a sound at all. It must be completely filled inside.
Qingyao didn't say what was inside or why he gave it to him. Seeing that Mu Yu had taken it, he patted his butt and left.
Mu Yu: I was completely baffled.
Rabbit Aotian jumped directly onto the box and said curiously, "Quickly open it and see! Qingyao has so many good things, more than the treasure vault!"
Could it be some kind of treasure passed down to her daughter-in-law? Mu Yu wondered.
The rabbit, Aotian, untied the ribbon and removed the lid, revealing a bunch of fluffy things.
Tu Aotian took out a pink rabbit ear from the box, looked at it, and said excitedly, "This color is beautiful, I want to become this color!"
In an instant, Rabbit Aotian's ears turned pink, and he even put the rabbit ears he was holding on his head, instantly giving him four rabbit ears.
Fortunately, this thing is advanced and can change size according to the wearer, otherwise Rabbit Aotian wouldn't be able to wear it.
What's the use of this? Mu Yu was even more confused. So many animal ears, they looked quite cute.
Thinking of the doll Qingyao asked him to make, could it be that it was sent over for him to use as a reference?
Rabbit Aotian wore the ears and showed them off to Ginbaobei, who then came over and picked out a pair of fox ears.
Mu Yu noted down the details and left the two ears for Tu Aotian and Jin Baobei. He also asked Men Hao if he was interested, and Mu Yu was happy to lose weight.
This trip back was completely unplanned. Since we were already on the ninth satellite, I decided to go to the Imperial Star in person to explain the situation to my father and take the opportunity to discuss the law with him.
As for what happened afterward, Ruan Mingchu didn't get involved anymore. He was there to recruit students, not to investigate cases!
Aside from the junk planets that shouldn't exist, the most remote and poorest planet in the Fifth Star System is called Red Exit Star. Once the target was determined, we headed there.
Because Ruan Mingchu took Mu Yu directly to the interstellar port and onto the starship, the box he was holding didn't have a chance to be put down and was carried onto the starship.
Ruan Mingchu looked at the box with curiosity, "What's inside?"
Mu Yu: "Look for yourself, Qingyao gave it to me."
Ruan Mingchu is now sensitive to the name "Qingyao," especially after he did something bad. He feels that Qingyao might be up to no good somewhere.
"Has it been opened?" Although Qingyao would never hide a real bomb inside, it's quite possible that it's something that could blow someone up and leave them covered in paint.
(Qingyao: Hey, I'm not that childish!)
Mu Yu nodded: "I've looked at the contents inside, but I didn't understand what it meant."
Ruan Mingchu became even more suspicious of Qingyao's intentions.
He removed the lid, flipped the box over, and dumped everything onto the carpet, instantly submerging both of their feet.
Mu Yu and Tu Aotian only saw the contents of the first layer; there were two more layers inside, which were all poured out by Ruan Mingchu.
But these things were much larger than the box. Mu Yu picked up the box with a puzzled look. He felt spatial fluctuations inside and just wanted to figure out what the underlying principle was.
Ruan Mingchu's attention was drawn to something on the ground. He picked up an unusually fluffy, pure white fox tail, which felt quite nice to the touch.
Tsk tsk, could it be real fox fur?
Putting her tail aside, Ruan Mingchu picked up a piece of fabric and examined it closely. Wasn't this a swimsuit?
Why is there a skirt? Is it a mermaid skirt? He doesn't want to use a mermaid tail in the human world.
Ruan Mingchu pondered Qingyao's intentions carefully. Where would he seek revenge?
One was studying the spatial fluctuations inside the box, while the other was pondering Qingyao's hidden thoughts; it was quite harmonious.

Qingyao: Two idiots!!!
——————————
While browsing the comments, I suddenly remembered that I hadn't posted the second half of the outline yet. Well, I'll just leave it at that and think about how to write the story of Qingyao and Ruanhuang.
If I can't write it, I'll post the second half QAQ
71. The Firefly Park is full of performances.
The gift Qingyao gave Muyu eventually taught him the skill of expanding the storage space of objects, but it was not very stable and could easily cause things to suddenly spill out.
Mu Yu thought he would consult Qing Yao when he returned.
Ruan Mingchu disassembled everything but failed to discover the hidden danger. The fabrics and furs he disassembled were used by Mu Yu to make dolls for Qingyao.
It was a gift from Qingyao. Making it into something and returning it to him is perfectly fine.
Several days later, when I received the doll from Mu Yu, I was delighted but also felt that it looked somewhat familiar.
Honglixing's agriculture, animal husbandry, light industry, heavy industry, tourism, and service industries are all underdeveloped, and the environment is not good, so most adults choose to work outside the area.
In other words, this is a planet where people stay behind; more than 80% of the population consists of the elderly and children. Even those who don't go to work on other planets mostly work in Hongli City, the main city of Hongli Star.
The starship docked at the interstellar port. After paying the docking fee, Ruan Mingchu and Mu Yu looked around as they walked out.
Surprisingly, there were quite a few people at the port.
Moreover, there are quite a few people waiting outside driving hovercars, who seem to make a living from it, meaning they can pick up passengers every day.
Ruan Mingchu and the other two had an extraordinary air about them. Even though they had disguised their appearances to make them look more ordinary, they were still very eye-catching. As soon as they stepped out of the port, three people waiting for customers came up to greet them.
Their business includes providing transportation, introducing hotels, guesthouses, restaurants, and Honglicheng, and they can also act as personal drivers and tour guides.
All three claimed to know Hongli City very well.
One knew every street and alley in Hongli City, and the other remembered the location of every manhole cover.
Ruan Mingchu looked at the third person. He was wearing a baseball cap, which shrouded the upper half of his face in shadow. He also had a cold and hard demeanor, unlike the other two who were all smiles.
Johnson opened his mouth and uttered two words: "Cheap."
The other two men's expressions changed, and they scolded in unison, "This price is set by the Chamber of Commerce. If you dare to lower the price without authorization, you'll be held accountable by the Chamber of Commerce!"
Johnson gave a cold "Oh," seemingly unafraid of the Chamber of Commerce's questioning.
These days, the key to success is price. Knowing they didn't have much of a competitive advantage, the two didn't give up and proceeded to belittle Johnson from his age and attitude to the hovercar he drove.
Ruan Mingchu and Mu Yu listened for a while and then chose Qiao Sen.
The fact that even a chamber of commerce has emerged shows that they are organized and have a certain scale, yet Hong Lixing was still lamenting in his year-end summary report that he had nothing.
It's yet another planet that doesn't match the records, which might add even more charges to those who were captured there.
Therefore, Nguyen Minh Thu chose to stand on the opposite side of the Chamber of Commerce, namely Khoon Sen.
Qiao Sen said, "Pay half the deposit first."
Ruan Mingchu transferred the money readily without even asking the price, not at all like someone who would be greedy for small gains.
A dark glint flashed in Qiao Sen's eyes as he led Ruan Mingchu and Mu Yu to the hovercar he had parked, opened the back door, and said, "Please."
Ruan Mingchu went up first and extended his hand to Mu Yu.
Mu Yu patted Ruan Mingchu's hand, hesitated for two seconds before not knocking it away, and then took the hand and boarded the hovercar.
Qiao Sen took everything in, his face remaining expressionless, but only he knew what was churning inside his heart.
After the two were seated, Johnson said, "It will take an hour to get to Hongli City. You can eat as many drinks and snacks as you like afterward."
Ruan Mingchu thanked him and casually picked up a bag of puffed snacks, tearing open the packaging.
"What's your name?"
Qiao Sen: "My last name is Qiao."
"Xiao Qiao, take us to the best hotel first, and then we need some daily necessities, all of them must be the best."
Johnson responded.
Ruan Mingchu then said, “Tell us about Hongli City. A brother of mine recommended it to me, saying it’s wonderful, but he wouldn’t tell me the specifics. He told me to come and visit for myself and I’ll find out.”
After a ten-second silence, Johnson asked, "What aspect do you want to know?"
"What else?" Ruan Mingchu picked up a snack and put it in his mouth, chewing as he said, "Eating, drinking, and having fun."
The taste was pretty good, so Ruan Mingchu picked up another one and put it to Mu Yu's lips.
Mu Yu reached out to take it, but Ruan Mingchu avoided his hand and brought it to her mouth instead. Mu Yu glanced at Qiao Sen in front of him, saw that he was staring ahead, and then opened his mouth and ate it.
Ruan Mingchu suppressed a laugh and wiped Mu Yu's red lips with her fingertip, earning a fierce glare from Mu Yu.
Mu Yu licked his lips. To be honest, it tasted even better than that stuff.
Johnson had been observing the two in the rearview mirror. If they weren't both Alphas, he would have thought they were a couple because of their intimate actions.
Johnson didn't care at all what their relationship was; all he wanted was to make money.
"The most famous place is the Firefly Park, which has everything you need for eating, drinking, and entertainment."
“The park? What’s so fun about the park?” Ruan Mingchu said dismissively. “I’ll kill him when I get back. He actually thinks the park is fun.”
Johnson didn't explain, he just asked, "Are you going?"
Ruan Mingchu yawned: "Since we're already here, let's go take a look, but we'll go tomorrow. Today I just want to eat something good and rest."
"Please pack up the best and most unique food from your area and send it over to us in a little while."
As Ruan Mingchu spoke, he transferred another substantial sum of money to Qiao Sen, saying, "Tell me if it's not enough."
Qiao Sen glanced at the string of numbers and then responded after a long pause.
