Star Farming, the eldest lady relies on alchemy to counterattack

Chapter 359 359
Ning Xuan sent a holographic video call to Ying Yaoshi from the sofa in the front hall. Two or three minutes later, the video connected, and Ying Yaoshi's figure appeared in front of Ning Xuan.

"My Lord, you actually took the initiative to video call me. This is quite unexpected." Ying Yaoshi said with a surprised expression.

Ying Yaoshi sat upright in the holographic projection, his slender figure like a drawn sword, exuding an innate sharpness. He wore a well-tailored dark blue stand-up collar uniform, with silver thread embroidery subtly visible under the light, clearly carefully selected from spare formal wear. Due to the hasty change, there were still some creases at the collar that had not been completely smoothed out.

His hair was meticulously combed back, the ends still slightly damp, as if it had just been hastily styled. A stray strand of hair fell across his forehead, casting a subtle shadow on his brow bone, adding a touch of liveliness to his sharp features.

"Were you taking a shower just now? Or did you take a shower specifically for the video?" Ning Xuan asked teasingly.

"I just got back from outside and was about to take a shower and change my clothes. Why would my master send me a message on his own initiative?" Ying Yaoshi asked again.

"Are you complaining that I don't send you enough videos? Do you have a grudge against me?" Ning Xuan couldn't help but turn cold.

Ying Yaoshi didn't know why, even though he loved her to death in his heart, the words that came out of his mouth always sounded off. Even he himself felt that the words he had just spoken were filled with resentment.

"I wouldn't dare, but it's just that the master would rather secretly run off to such a remote resource planet than stay by my side, and it makes me sad." Ying Yaoshi realized his mistake and quickly softened his tone.

“Ying Yaoshi, I know that I possess a legendary companion spirit. If it weren’t for you mediating between various forces and protecting me, I wouldn’t be living such a good life today. I know your sacrifices, but I won’t let you suffer in vain. I’ve already found out why you’ve been unable to advance. I’ve also treated some of the hidden injuries and problems in your body. Once I advance to SSS level, I can open the key to the Chaos God Realm and send you there to help you complete your transformation.” Ning Xuan’s words made Ying Yaoshi’s expression instantly turn serious.

"Ning Xuan, did you hear something from someone? Or did Yu Mingche or Di Youlin tell you something?" Ying Yaoshi couldn't help but ask.

"What should I hear? That you helped me in order to find a breakthrough opportunity?" Ning Xuan asked back.

Ying Yaoshi remained silent.

"Alright, stop making that face. Neither Yu Mingche nor Di Youlin said that even if you helped me to seek a breakthrough opportunity, you've already made an unconditional sacrifice. Whether you'll get anything in return is still unknown. I just want to tell you that advancing to SSS level won't take much time. As long as I quickly advance to SSS level, I can solve your problem immediately," Ning Xuan said firmly.

"If I don't need you to solve my problems, can you be nicer to me?" Ying Yaoshi asked as if possessed. As soon as he said it, he wished he could swallow the words back. What was he even saying?

Seeing Ying Yaoshi's expression as if he'd seen a ghost, Ning Xuan couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Are you really bothered by the possibility that I might make Yu Mingche my legal husband? Don't worry, the contract doesn't stipulate that there can only be one legal husband. A while ago, when I was missing, I saw that you two were getting along quite well, weren't you? Now that I'm back, have you two fallen out again?" Ning Xuan asked tentatively. "It's not that we've fallen out, it's just that the thought of Yu Mingche being able to be by your side every day makes me feel uneasy. Whether he's your legal husband or not doesn't matter, I'm just jealous that he can see you every day," Ying Yaoshi said, frowning.

“Who told you to hold such an important position? I’ll video call you more often in the future. You can call me anytime you have time. The main reason I’m making this video call today is to tell you that Chairman Wang of the Controller Protection Association just came to see me and conveyed the Senate’s message. They want me to have my blood drawn again and enter the matching system to recalculate my match.” Ning Xuan finally revealed the main purpose of the video call.

Upon hearing Ning Xuan's words, Ying Yaoshi's expression immediately changed. He snorted coldly, "They really have no shame. I have warned them several times, yet they still dare to come to you. Xuanxuan, you must not listen to them. Their purpose in making you recalculate the match is to push their own family's scion onto you. You must not fall for it."

"Most of their long-established families advocate and promote female childbirth. Their goal is to get you to bear offspring for their family. If you come into contact with them, they have plenty of ways to trick you without you even realizing it. You must not be deceived," Ying Yaoshi warned.

"Oh, really?" Ning Xuan asked nervously.

“Yes, Di Youlin was born to his mother, Wen Yuebai. In fact, Wen Yuebai has already given birth to four children for Di Jingtian, although only Di Youlin is still alive at the moment.” Ying Yaoshi seemed to know a lot about Di Youlin’s family situation.

"Okay, I understand. I'll be more careful in the future. I just felt I should tell you about this," Ning Xuan said to Ying Yaoshi.

“That’s the right way to think. I wouldn’t hurt you. Although at first I did want to see if I could get a promotion opportunity through you, after our first meeting and the time we spent together, I’ve developed some different feelings for you. I want to be with you all the time, and the thought of others being able to be by your side while I can’t makes me insanely jealous.” In the conference room where Ying Yaoshi was, artificial light cast a cool halo on his well-defined face, and his high nose bridge cast a sharp shadow on his profile.

"I'll visit you again when I have time," Ning Xuan comforted him.

“I really want to retire now. If I could retire earlier, would I be able to stay by your side forever?” Ying Yaoshi said.

"Then you should try your best," Ning Xuan encouraged him half-heartedly.

"So, Xuanxuan, you support me, right? In that case, I'll send a message to Lanxin now to tell him that his vacation is canceled and to come back as soon as possible." Ying Yaoshi said, about to send a message to Lanxin.

"No, Ying Yaoshi, are you doing this on purpose? Lan Xin came all this way and just got back. She hasn't even recovered from her injuries yet, and you're already trying to take her away? No way, you can't cancel her vacation." Ning Xuan immediately stopped Ying Yaoshi's actions.
