Star Iron: May all your wishes come true at the start, join the chat group.

"Chungseed skewers! Delicious chungseed skewers!"

"Soda soy milk, soda soy milk, everyone who's tried it says it's great!"

"..."

On the street, Su Yu tied her white hair into a high ponytail and wore clothes with the unique style of Luofu Immortal Boat, which was classical and elegant but not too conservative.

His features were flawless, exquisite and perfect, with eyebrows like distant mountains and eyes like stars, as if he had stepped out of an ancient painting of a fairy boat.

If there's any flaw, it's that Su Yu's face never showed much expression; she always maintained a calm and indifferent demeanor.

But this kind of attitude makes people feel even more unapproachable than being so aloof.

Su Yu was holding her phone in her right hand, chatting with Himeko, asking her about the current location of the Star Train and how long it would take to reach the Black Tower Space Station, in order to deduce the specific time when the game's story would begin.

Just then, the Black Tower sent a message.

[Black Tower: The four of us just updated the simulated universe, adding a lot of interesting things. Want to come over and test it out?]

As geniuses in the same club, and both of them possessing values ​​and personalities like normal people, Su Yu and Hei Ta are much closer than the other geniuses.

With Black Tower's intelligence, it had already figured out Su Yu's special qualities many years ago.

Therefore, at the beginning, Black Tower invited Su Yu to develop the simulated universe project with them, but Su Yu resolutely refused.

However, Black Tower did not completely give up after being rejected by Su Yu.

From then on, she would invite Su Yu to the Black Tower Space Station every few days to experience the development of a simulated universe.

Unfortunately, though.

Su Yu has no shortage of credits and has no desire for Black Tower, so naturally she would not choose to "sell herself" to her.

[Su Yu: You beg me.]

[Black Tower: Please.]

[Su Yu: This is too perfunctory and insincere. I refuse.]

As always, he declined the Black Tower's invitation. At the same time, after learning from Himeko that the Star Train would arrive at the Black Tower space station in about half a month, he continued his conversation with the Black Tower.

Su Yu then put her phone away and headed towards another residence in Changletian.

Inside the courtyard, a fox-woman was sitting in the front yard, with many documents on the table in front of her. She was reviewing some business dealings of the Minghuo Merchant Guild.

The fox woman has a pair of slightly fluffy brown fox ears and bright green eyes, unconsciously exuding a charming and lively aura unique to young fox women.

Since they were at home, the other person was dressed quite casually, wearing only a red and black sleeveless top and a black chiffon skirt.

It was Tingyun, the chief representative of the Minghuo Merchant Guild.

"Su Yu!"

Hearing footsteps, Tingyun subconsciously looked up and then a joyful smile appeared on her bright and pretty face.

"Why are you here? I was trying to finish these documents; I'll come find you later!"

The fox-girl stood up from her seat, quickly walked to Su Yu, put her arms around his waist, and leaned her head against his chest.

"I have no choice, because I'm going to leave the Immortal Ship for a while and go out for a trip, so I came to find you first."

Su Yu gently patted Ting Yun's back, and at the same time whispered a word of advice in her ear.

"For the next period of time, until I get back, please don't go out and just stay at home."

"If anyone else asks you to go out on errands, just say it's my order, and I'll let Jingyuan know later."

Upon hearing this, Tingyun did not inquire about the specific reason, because she knew that Su Yu would not harm her.

"Yes, Tingyun will be a good girl."

She encountered danger while traveling as a merchant, and Su Yu, who happened to be passing by, saved her. She fell in love with Su Yu at first sight and chose to pursue him, thus staging a story of a fox repaying a debt of gratitude.

Over the years, thanks to Su Yu's care, both Ting Yun's status on the Luofu Immortal Ship and the status of the Minghuo Merchant Guild she led in the entire universe have seen remarkable improvements.

Seeing Tingyun's obedient and charming appearance, Su Yu smiled.

He had set up various protective mechanisms on Tingyun a long time ago, so even if Huanlongzhen were to attack Tingyun while he was away, he would probably suffer a great loss.

Seeing the smile in Su Yu's eyes, and a hint of tenderness appearing on his usually calm and serene appearance, Ting Yun unconsciously wrapped her hands around his neck, tiptoed to Su Yu's ear, and breathed softly into his ear.

"My benefactor, it's been a while since the little fox has repaid your kindness!"

Su Yu didn't say anything, but simply reached out and picked up the fox beauty in his arms, then easily carried her to the bedroom inside.

…………

the next day.

Himeko has completed her daily check-in and earned 77 points. Random reward: One Heavenly Travel Talisman.

[Qilin completed her daily check-in today and earned 85 points.]

Ying completed her daily check-in today and earned 83 points.

[Ying: A talisman for traversing the universe! @Himeko, I remember this talisman can allow someone to travel through the universe!]

[Himeko: Hmm, I checked. It does allow me to travel through the universe, but currently I can only travel to the world where @Ying and @Qilin are, and I can stay there for three days. Within those three days, I can freely return to my own universe.]

[Qilin: I'm so envious! Yesterday Ying drew the Destiny Card, and today Himeko drew the All-Heavens Teleportation Talisman, while I only have points!]

[Ying: Qilin, Su Yu didn't get any rewards other than points either!]

[Ying: Oh~ Su Yu hasn't started signing in yet today.]

[Himeko: He's probably doing some kind of research experiment!]

[Himeko: I have a friend named Black Tower, who, like Su Yu, is a genius in the Genius Club, and is also someone you rarely see.]

[Qilin: Wow! It seems Himeko, your identity isn't simple either, you've even managed to become friends with a genius from the Genius Club!]

On the Teyvat side.

Seeing that Himeko had a genius friend, Ying wanted to continue chatting, but seeing that it was getting late, she could only call Paimon to get up together and prepare to meet up with Columbia and Laumma.

Stepping out of the flagship, Ying looked up at the cloud-covered sky and unconsciously frowned.

For some reason, the traveler suddenly felt a pang of anxiety, and his originally fair and rosy complexion turned quite unpleasant.

Paimon, whose figure resembled a small white elf, noticed the change in his companion's expression and quickly asked with concern.

"What's wrong with you? Why do you suddenly look so pale?!"

Ying shook her head: "I don't know, but I have a feeling that something really bad is about to happen."
