"Although... but... I still want to say, does anyone remember that Goddess and Lan Lan are stranded on the deserted planet, waiting for rescue?"
Amidst the dense barrage of comments, a small one drifted by. However, that insignificant message was quickly drowned out by more, and not many paid attention.
Lu Wanqing busied herself for another two hours, finally finishing a pot of fragrant stewed chicken with mushrooms. It wasn't that her stewing time was too long, but rather that the birds in the mountains were different from domesticated ones; they required longer simmering to cook through and become tender, and naturally, their flavor was more intense.
Little Mu Lan's eyes lit up at the aroma, wanting to drink some!
Lu Wanqing didn't stop her. She ladled a bowl for the little one using a bamboo bowl, then looked at Zhong Li Feiyu.
She had to admit, the medical effects of the interstellar era were truly remarkable. Zhong Li Feiyu, who had looked so severely injured before, now seemed to have recovered. If it weren't for his slightly pale lips, Lu Wanqing would have almost thought he was fine.
In fact, Zhong Li Feiyu was indeed almost well. He didn't need Lu Wanqing's help anymore and could ladle soup himself with a bamboo bowl.
Lu Wanqing watched Zhong Li Feiyu ladle a bowl of soup, then picked up a bamboo bowl herself and did the same.
The soup was rich and fragrant, and it tasted very good. However, as she ate, Lu Wanqing suddenly had a bad feeling. She looked up at the sky, feeling that the sky had inexplicably become much gloomier.
Zhong Li Feiyu noticed her gaze and also looked up. It seemed there were more dark clouds in the sky.
"It might rain tonight!" Zhong Li Feiyu said.
Mu Lan was stunned. The child was young and knew little, but even she couldn't help but look up at the sky.
"The climate on the deserted planet is not good. If it rains, it probably won't stop for ten days to half a month," Zhong Li Feiyu added moments later.
Lu Wanqing's face changed. She found it hard to believe, "Ten days to half a month?"
Rain was a common occurrence, but it was problematic in a forest, especially...
Lu Wanqing turned to look at their bamboo hut.
Because it was a temporary shelter, she had built it very simply, without even basic drainage ditches.
"Then how long until the void storm passes?" Lu Wanqing wondered aloud.
Zhong Li Feiyu remained silent for a while, then finally said, "It might take some time."
It would take some time, meaning the void storm would not pass anytime soon.
If the void storm didn't end, it meant Mu Sijie and the others couldn't pick them up, and they would still be stuck in this forsaken place.
"No, we have to dig drainage ditches." Lu Wanqing thought, then said sternly.
Otherwise, if it rained heavily for ten days to half a month, their bamboo hut would surely be flooded.
Lu Wanqing sped up her eating and finished dinner quickly. Putting down her bamboo bowl, she went to examine the area next to the bamboo hut.
Lu Wanqing carefully surveyed the area and finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although their bamboo hut wasn't too far from the river, the ground was much higher than the riverbank. Digging a trench to divert the eaves water into the river should not be a problem.
However, digging a drainage ditch presented a significant challenge, the most immediate being the tools for digging!
Lu Wanqing took out her spatial device and searched through the various tools she normally used for building mechas, flipping through them repeatedly, but she couldn't find anything suitable.
"What do we do?" Lu Wanqing was anxious for the first time, feeling a surge of restlessness.
In the live stream, some viewers also sensed the predicament Lu Wanqing was about to face. Many netizens even went to check the weather on the deserted planet during this period, but they couldn't find any information!
The deserted planet was an undeveloped planet. The Federal Statistics Bureau had not included any data for it in its lists, so it did not monitor the planet's various data like other planets.
But no one doubted General Zhong Li's words. He was General Zhong Li, after all; he wouldn't lie to everyone!
"What do we do? Why hasn't the void storm passed yet?"
"Ahhh, please, heavens, make the void storm pass quickly!"
"May heavens bless us, please don't let anything happen to my Goddess and Lan Lan, and General Zhong Li, you must all be safe!"
The netizens began to worry about Lu Wanqing and Mu Lan. The comments poured in, and everyone prayed for them.
However, among so many netizens, there were one or two with malicious intent, like Lu Yuanyuan!
She had personally orchestrated all of this. She had thought that Lu Wanqing and Mu Lan's lives would end there, and they would no longer be seen in the interstellar world, allowing her to live comfortably.
But unexpectedly, Lu Wanqing's life was so resilient. When news of the live stream emerged, reporting that Lu Wanqing and Mu Lan were still alive, she refused to believe it. However, after entering the live stream and seeing Lu Wanqing and Mu Lan truly alive, she had to believe it. While frightened, she was also furious.
Why were they still alive?
After all that, why was Lu Wanqing still alive?
It was as if a demon had taken root in Lu Yuanyuan's heart, constantly corroding her from within. Especially after she married into the Liang family, her resentment grew even stronger.
It was all because of Lu Wanqing. If it weren't for Lu Wanqing, she would never have impulsively married into the Liang family!
What were the Liang family worth? Compared to the Mu family, they were miles behind!
The Lu family had already helped them so much, even giving them the core technology for making mechas. Yet, they were still so useless, ha...
Lu Yuanyuan thought back to her meticulously planned schemes. She had expected the Liang family to quickly suppress the Mu family and share power, or perhaps, in alliance with the Lu family, the Lu and Liang families could bring down the Mu family, trampling the once haughty and arrogant Mu family underfoot as stepping stones!
But who could have predicted?
3S mechas!
Super 3S mechas!
The Mu family clearly didn't have them before, but suddenly they had everything. Compared to the Mu family, the S-class and 3S-class mechas that the Liang family had suddenly revealed seemed as laughable as a clown's performance.
She had also become a laughingstock among the elite social circles of the Federation.
She hated Lu Wanqing and wished she could reach through the live stream and kill her directly, but her rationality told her there was no chance!
Her father had spoken to her, warning her not to do such foolish things again!
She couldn't do it again...
But she was so hateful. If Lu Wanqing had never appeared, she believed Brother Sijie would have chosen her. A marriage alliance between the Mu and Lu families was the best choice, the best development for both families!
A sudden void storm had blocked the Mu family's path to the deserted planet to rescue Lu Wanqing, and it had also blocked the path of the federal official rescue team to rescue Lu Wanqing. Heaven knew how excited Lu Yuanyuan was. She felt that even heaven was helping her. Even if Lu Wanqing narrowly escaped, she would eventually die on the deserted planet.
After all, it was the wilderness, and on an undeveloped planet, who knew what dangers lurked within? Perhaps Lu Wanqing and that bastard Mu Lan would accidentally die?
Lu Yuanyuan rarely missed any live streams involving Lu Wanqing and Mu Lan. Every day she would log in. As long as Lu Wanqing opened her live stream, she would enter, not for any other reason, but simply to see if Lu Wanqing and Mu Lan, trapped on the deserted planet, would suddenly have an accident one day and die out there?
But Lu Wanqing was damnably clever. Even though they were stranded on the deserted planet, her life and Mu Lan's were getting better day by day, as if they were on vacation.
Billions of viewers in the live stream envied Lu Wanqing and Mu Lan's lives on the deserted planet, watching countless people praise Lu Wanqing in the comments every day.
Lu Yuanyuan watched those comments praising Lu Wanqing, and the worm of jealousy in her heart grew larger and larger, frantically devouring her.
But just as she felt unwilling, heaven once again sided with her. It was going to rain, was it really going to rain on the deserted planet? And for ten days to half a month?
Given the flimsy hut Lu Wanqing had built, it would surely collapse after ten days to half a month of rain, right? And the inside would be flooded?
Lu Yuanyuan thought about it and couldn't help but get excited. She could almost imagine the scene of Lu Wanqing's painstakingly built bamboo hut collapsing, crushing Lu Wanqing and Mu Lan to death inside. The thought alone was beautiful!
