StarCraft: Everyone wants the Queen

Chapter 29 Cat's Eye Stone

To shut Shen Qingqing up, Ge Yuan once again magically transformed a glass of water into orange juice.

Suddenly, Shen Qingqing felt that the yogurt in her hand no longer tasted good.

So even the apple she just ate was produced in this way?

Ge Yuan said it was nothing.

"The research institute's spaceships are constantly floating in the atmosphere of different planets, and basic living supplies are almost impossible to obtain. This is the only way to ensure that you don't starve to death."

“But it doesn’t matter,” Ge Yuan said nonchalantly. “Although they are all synthetic, their nutrient content is much higher than that of natural products, so you can eat them without worry.”

Shen Qingqing said "oh" and lowered her head to continue eating her apple.

Staying in the lab is boring and unbearable; I don't know how Ge Yuan manages to stay there.

After finishing the apple, still bored to the extreme, he finally reached for the petri dishes arranged on both sides of the laboratory.

Since Ge Yuan said she could wander around as she pleased, as long as she didn't cause any accidents...

For example, blowing up the laboratory or accidentally ingesting experimental reagents.

Let her do whatever she wants.

Wandering among a pile of bottles and jars, one can see the gradually blurring figure of Ge Yuan through the red and green potions.

They walked further and further until they got tired and found a place to rest, where they accidentally noticed something different on the wall.

In fact, with her eyesight, she couldn't see any difference.

But since waking up and being injected with a drug by Ge Yuan, his vision has become increasingly clear.

So she could clearly see some red fragments in the corner of the wall.

Ok?

I pinched it up and smelled it.

no taste.

It crumbles easily when squeezed, like fragments produced by the drying of some kind of chemical substance.

Looking up, you can see a dark mark on the wall; it's almost invisible unless you look closely.

Curiosity led her to reach out her hand as if possessed.

"Miss Mummy?"

Ge Yuan's voice came from afar, interrupting her actions.

He quickly withdrew his finger, stood up from the ground, and left as if he didn't care.

"Ge Yuan, what can I do for you?"

"Ah, that blue reagent, no, not this one... ah, it's the one on your right, yes! You're great..."

Help Ge Yuan find reagents, rummaging through a pile of bottles and jars to find the raw materials she wanted.

Having long forgotten what had just happened, Shen Qingqing ran very fast between the test tubes.

From accidentally breaking a table full of test tubes to now skillfully navigating through them.

Shen Qingqing was very fortunate to receive the title of Best Model Worker.

She was recruited by Ge Yuan and became her experimental assistant.

"what?"

Shen Qingqing looked at Ge Yuan's manicure with a puzzled expression, "What's going on with your manicure?"

The manicure on her left pinky finger was gone. Engrossed in her experiment, Ge Yuan mumbled, "Oh, you mean that? The quality was too poor, I threw it away..."

For some reason, she remembered the red debris in the corner of the wall.

He swallowed hard, keeping the secret to himself.

……

"Done!"

Having achieved another victory, Ge Yuan took off her white coat, tidied herself up, and then walked out of the isolation room.

Aren't you sleepy yet?

Seeing that Shen Qingqing was still full of energy, Ge Yuan wiped her forehead and said, "According to the time of the star, it should be three o'clock in the morning now. You are not sleepy yet. That shouldn't be the case."

"That's because I'm bored." She sat on the swivel chair, swinging her legs, showing no sign of wanting to sleep.

She casually pulled over a chair and sat down. Under the soft light that had been adjusted to be gentle on the eyes, Ge Yuan's entire body was so white that it seemed to glow.

The warm yellow light shone on Shen Qingqing's profile, and the edges of her slightly drooping eyelashes seemed to soften and shimmer with a faint light.

She was beautiful and charming, yet adorable, as if bathed in holy light; no ordinary female could compare to even a single hair of hers.

The person outside the door, who was about to knock, thought to himself.

Then someone saw a scene that seemed familiar.

It was that familiar scene that made him abandon knocking and instead push the door open and enter.

The two insects, holding a necklace made of cat's eye stone, were about to put it on when they were stopped.

? ?

Ge Yuan: Did you call him?

Shen Qingqing: How could that be! I don't even know him!

He pushed open the door and entered without feeling anything amiss; instead, he walked directly to the two people.

"I've come at the wrong time."

Why does that sound like he's so jealous?

Ge Yuan asked with her eyes: Are you two having an affair?

In Serit's eyes, Shen Qingqing's silence was an admission and a blatant act of arrogance and provocation.

"Does my presence here really make you unhappy?"

Ge Yuan, who had already covered her eyes and was secretly observing the two through her fingers, revealed a maternal smile.

Oh my, she actually got to eat such a big melon!

How exhilarating this is for the insects!

Laboratory monitoring records everything that happens in the laboratory.

I'm planning to publish a short article in a couple of days, to annoy Celit while also making some extra money.

She even thought of a name.

Let's call it "The Yandere Count Falls in Love with the Little White Rabbit: Sweet Miss, Where Are You Going?!"

A name needs to be catchy enough to attract attention.

Only eye-catching content generates traffic.

Traffic equals money.

With money, she'll be more motivated to write!

Now, all you bugs in front of your screens, get your little rockets going! The story of the yandere count and the sweet young lady is about to begin.

She has made up her mind that she will finish writing it, even if it means staying up all night.

Completely unaware of his utterly disgraceful state, the count, still relentlessly questioning Shen Qingqing, asked, "Seeing me makes you so sad?"

Shen Qingqing looked up in shock, hardly believing her eyes and ears.

What? He clearly tricked me into coming here, and now he's putting on this sentimental act.

They're not acting, yet they're putting on an act.

[Host, is it possible that he's enjoying himself?]

"Shut up!"

Unable to hold back, he directly reprimanded her.

Shen Qingqing froze on the spot.

Who's going to take care of this idiot system?

Suddenly, he appeared and started spouting nonsensical and vulgar language.

However, Celit doesn't think so.

He wondered if it was because he was too noisy that the little female in front of him became impatient and therefore had a bad attitude.

So he simply shut his mouth and stopped talking no matter how much Ge Yuan teased him.

He simply ignored Shen Qingqing's expression, forcefully shoved a small box into her arms, and then left without looking back.

"Judging from his appearance, he looks like he's running away in a panic, hahaha..."

Ge Yuan laughed even more heartily.

The usually sharp-tongued count got his comeuppance here today; his humiliated expression was priceless...

Too rare.

The count never imagined he would be in such dire straits.

Shen Qingqing held the gift box, at a loss for what to do.

"How about... we find an opportunity to return it to him?"

"What's there to worry about? That old guy is rich, don't even think about it." Mentioning this, Ge Yuan once again expressed her disdain for Serit.

"I really don't know how he accumulated his wealth. Never mind, let's quickly open it and see what he gave us."

Ge Yuan was even more excited than her, muttering things like "The stingy Earl has changed his ways" and "The miser has quietly left."

After opening the dark red gift box and seeing what was inside...

The two insects looked at each other, their expressions inscrutable.
