After being fed to top-tier orcs, I became the darling of the entire intergalactic world.

Chapter 343 A sumptuous late-night snack with a few close friends

Liang He taught them how to prepare crayfish step by step, just like she was teaching a child.

Whether it's a marshal, a commander, or a pirate leader, at this moment they are all just her furry pets.

They were all obedient and well-behaved, and no matter how she ordered them around, they were happy to do so without complaint or regret.

"I've learned it. You go and rest. We can take care of this."

Among them, Landon was the most perceptive. After figuring out the operating procedure, he told Liang He to put down the tools, wash her hands, drink milk tea, and wait for the late-night snack to be served.

Neither Cedril nor Elius had any objections to this.

Anyway, Landon has already learned it, so if there's anything they don't understand, they can ask him.

"Yes, yes, Lianghe, you've had a long day, go and rest."

They should have had a good rest after working so hard these past few days, but Liang He was too responsible, and the situation on Skalan Star was indeed critical, so they had no choice but to race against time.

Now that she's finally willing to take a break, nobody wants her to do anything.

"Okay, take your time. I'm not hungry yet, so don't hurt your hands."

Liang He understood their care and concern for her, just like how she would specially prepare special meals for them when they were sick...

Therefore, Liang He did not refuse, but obediently washed her hands and sat back down next to Liang Jia.

"By the way, Oko, have you seen any orcas?"

I only had a brief meeting with the orca grandma and the others during the day. Later, I was called to dinner by Golin and the others. After dinner, I was busy uploading research data and didn't have time to say hello to them.

"I see them. They're still in the surrounding waters. They're probably trying to protect you."

The orcas can't return to their home for the time being. The only person they know and trust is Liang He, so after discovering her presence, they have been lingering in the surrounding waters, unwilling to leave.

"To them, you are like their backbone."

Having worked at the Skarlan Star Reserve for so long, Oko has rarely seen anyone get so close to marine animals, especially orcas.

"I will definitely send them home."

This is Liang He's promise to Grandma Orca.

They braved dangers to help her fight the rebels, and now it's time for her to repay them.

"The deputy district chief said that apart from the black fog, you can relax a bit on Skaran Star, just treat it as a vacation, and don't put too much pressure on yourself."

In essence, the events on Skaran Star have little to do with Liang He.

Her willingness to help is already a huge favor; as for other matters, they should be left to their own devices.

"Yes, I know."

Since Huo An sent Mengji Snow Leopard and the others over, it means she will stay on Skalan Star for a while longer.

As for Yin Qi, who was the only one left behind, it's most likely because Yin Ling and the others are still on Tianyao Star, so it's inconvenient to send them over together.
"I'm going for a walk outside."

Liang He suddenly remembered that she hadn't let Yin Ling and the others know she was safe for so long. Since she was free now, she decided to check if they were asleep.

"Okay, stay safe."

Liang Jia knew that Liang He had private matters to attend to, so she did not follow.

The small kitchen actually has an open-air dining area facing the sea. Liang He walked to the railing and sent a message to Yin Ling, mainly because she was afraid that she was already asleep and that video calling would disturb her.

【Drip drip! 】

Less than half a minute after the message was sent, Yinling popped up a video request.

After Liang He quickly answered the call, she saw that Yin Ling had already changed into her pajamas and didn't seem to have any worries.

【Ah Ling, long time no see.】

[Xiao He! You finally contacted me! I missed you so much!]

Yinling was overjoyed to see Liang He.

Seeing her safe and sound, unharmed, finally put my mind at ease. [I wanted to contact you after learning of your safe evacuation, but Huo An said you were tired and busy, so I didn't bother you.]

Otherwise, given Yinling's temperament, she would have contacted Lianghe long ago, instead of waiting until now.

Sorry, there were a lot of follow-up matters, so I wasn't able to contact you in time.

Liang He felt a little guilty after Yin Ling said that.

Her friends were all worried about her safety, and it was wrong of her not to let them know she was safe after she escaped danger.

No apology allowed! You did nothing wrong!

Yin Ling wasn't the type to be pretentious, and she absolutely refused to accept Liang He's apology.

She just said so much, but she wasn't complaining.

In short, I'm so happy to see you safe and sound!

Looking at Yin Ling's sincere smile, Liang He smiled back. She was truly happy to have a group of friends who unconditionally understood and helped her.

It was getting late, so after letting her know she was safe, Liang He hung up the video call.

She had intended to contact Huo An and Xu Yi, but guessed they were either resting or too busy to rest, so she decided to wait until tomorrow.

"Sister! Dinner's ready!"

Many hands make light work, and just like that, a late-night snack was unexpectedly served.

In addition to the usual crayfish and instant noodles, there were even special drinks, making it look exceptionally plentiful.

"Wow! It smells so good!"

Smelling the enticing aroma of crayfish, Liang He's appetite was whetted, and she was the first to grab a pair of disposable gloves.

"I'm not polite!"

We're all acquaintances, so there's no need to be polite.

Considering everyone's tastes, Li Xiao made two kinds of crayfish: one spicy and one garlicky.

Looking at the crayfish soaking in the spicy broth, Liang He's mouth was already watering.

"Try it, how does it taste?"

Ao Ke, who was eating crayfish for the first time, couldn't wait to get feedback so he could choose between spicy or garlic flavor later.

Under everyone's expectant gaze, Liang He peeled a crayfish, dipped it in some broth, and put it in her mouth. The moment it entered her mouth, even before she could taste the flavor, she closed her eyes in blissful satisfaction.

"Delicious!"

Li Xiao used a semi-finished base sauce, but added some other ingredients to fully bring out the original aroma of the base sauce. The taste is definitely no worse than what you can buy outside!
It even brings out the natural sweetness of the crayfish meat!

"Li Xiao, your cooking skills have improved again!"

Seeing Liang He enjoying her meal so much, the others who had worked so hard to prepare the late-night snack all smiled.

"However, I just remembered that crayfish and milk cannot be eaten together, so I can drink the milk tea later."

When choosing a late-night snack, it was Elius and the others who made the decision, but they were unaware of the principle of food incompatibility. Li Xiao only remembered it later.

"I did some research and made a special drink. You guys can try it too."

After all, eating crayfish without having something to drink always feels like something's missing.

"awesome!"

While Li Xiao was speaking, Ao Ke and the others couldn't resist reaching out and each taking a bite of a crayfish.

Then, Cedril, who was overwhelmed by the spiciness, immediately grabbed a special drink and downed half of it in one gulp to calm down the burning sensation.

"So spicy...but so satisfying!"

The charm of crayfish lies in the fact that no matter how spicy it is, once you finish one, you can't help but want to eat another, and you keep eating until the plate is empty.
