CHAPTER 78

"I'll prepare the bed sheets and covers later." Qin Zhaoci blinked in fear that Ye Lianyin would not agree to stay.

"Mm, okay." Ye Lianyin nodded, "But I may only be able to sleep for one night. I will take the spaceship back to the empire tomorrow afternoon, and I have classes the day after tomorrow." 

"Yeah, I know." Qin Zhaoci knew that she could only stay with Ye Lianyin for such a short period of time, she was a bit disappointed, but she still nodded her head.　

Ye Lianyin walked to the sofa and sat down, looked down at the flowers and tea sets on the coffee table, turned her head and said with a smile: "You have quite lot of life style. You've been living here alone for over half a month, and you haven't forgotten to exchange fresh flowers."

"Of course." Qin Zhaoci proudly looked up. "Looking at the flowers always makes me feel better. However, I am still quite lonely in the Pastoral planet alone. Every day, there's no one I can talk to. I really can't stay here alone for too long. After a long time, I might go crazy because there's no one to speak with.

"When are you planning to return to the Empire?" Ye Lianyin turned to look at Qin Zhaoci, "The anniversary of the Imperial Academy will start in half a month. Although I didn't voluntarily participate, don't you want to go and see what I'm performing?"

"Of course I've thought about it and I'll definitely go back then." Qin Zhaoci nodded earnestly. "I've never seen you perform before, and I definitely have to go see it with my own eyes."

Ye Lianyin was satisfied with Qin Zhaoci's assurance, and the corners of her lips curled up: "Okay."

"Hehehe." Qin Zhaoci saw Ye Yuyin smiling, and curved her eyes along with her, "Oh, I'll go cook for you, it just so happens that it's almost dinner time, what do you want to eat? I'll make it all for you."

"Hmm..." Ye Lianyin tilted her head, after eating Qin Zhaoci's food for so long, she already knew the names of those dishes, "Sweet and sour pork ribs, tomato scrambled eggs, A box of chives, pickled vegetables and meat, and a winter melon soup."

"Got it." Qin Zhaoci immediately made an OK gesture, put on her apron skillfully, and went into the kitchen to prepare the meal.

With nothing else to do, Ye Lianyin walked up to the balcony on the third floor and stood on a high spot to look at the scenery in front of her.　

From a distance, most of the land here is barren soil, scattered and visible with a few shades of green. Ye Lianyin couldn't quite see what was planted, but she clearly understood that it should have been planted by Qin Zhaoci herself during this period of time.

Watching the gradual emergence of green, Ye Lianyin understood that Qin Zhaoci had been struggling lately. Without the help of robots, she had to do everything by herself. No wonder every time she had a video call with her recently, she would fell asleep unconsciously many times.

Thinking of this, Ye Lianyin began to feel sorry for Qin Zhaoci.

After coming downstairs, Ye Lianyin walked to the kitchen and looked at Qin Zhaoci's busy figure. The familiarity flooded her face, instantly making her feel much more at ease.

"How are you planning to arrange these robots? The Pastoral planet should be quite large, isn't it? Are these robots enough?"

Qin Zhaoci shook her head: "It should not be enough. If the scale begins to take shape later, I may continue to customize robots. At present, I only plan to use these robots to take care of the land in this area." 

"The soil characteristics and climate of Pastoral planet are different at latitudes, and I have to plant corresponding vegetation based on the climate."

"Later, if the time is right, I may have to build a greenhouse to artificially control the temperature and humidity for mass production."

Ye Lianyin didn't expect Qin Zhaoci to tell her all of her plans, so she raised her eyebrows and said: "This is considered a trade secret, and you just told me, are you not afraid of me revealing it?"

Qin Zhaoci smiled, and shook her head confidently: "First of all, I believe you are not this kind of person, and second, even if other people know, so what? The empire's food market is already blank. They can't reproduce it without seeds. Even if I tell them my plan, they can't carry it out."

"Hmm, you're right." Ye Lianyin heard Qin Zhaoci's words, and suddenly found that Qin Zhaoci didn't seem to deliberately hide her secrets anymore, which surprised her a little.

After Qin Zhaoci's amnesia, she exhibited various behaviors that were incompatible with the Empire, as well as the food she brought out that did not exist before the Empire. In her own heart, she should also understand that her suspicion of her had accumulated very deeply.

Now that she is so confident that others cannot get the seeds, Ye Lianyin has an impossible doubt in her heart. What if the current Qin Zhaoci is another Qin Zhaoci?

If the current Qin Zhaoci is not the past Qin Zhaoci, then where did the original Qin Zhaoci go?

Ye Lianyin couldn't figure it out, and couldn't understand it either.

Having received so many years of information science education, she really couldn't think of such an unbelievable thing as soul exchange.

Unable to figure it out, Ye Lianyin gave up and continued to think deeply. Anyway, Qin Zhaoci is really good now, this will do, and the rest are not that important to her.

"The delicious food is out of the pan, let's now eat." Qin Zhaoci happened to stir fry the dishes, and the familiar voice called back Ye Lianyin who was in a daze.

"Wow, it smells so good." Ye Lianyin sat down at the dining table, looked at the dishes she had requested, and picked up the chopsticks, "It's really been half a month since I've eaten, and the nutrient solution is really hard to drink."

"Didn't I leave something for you in the refrigerator? Didn't you eat it? "Qin Zhaoci sat down opposite Ye Lianyin, frowning strangely.

Ye Lianyin thought of the things in the refrigerator, and shook her head: "At first, it was because I was angry and didn't want to eat it. Later, I was too busy and didn't have time to make it, so I kept it there."

"Ah, what would you do without me?" Qin Zhaoci shook her head with a mature expression and looked at Ye Lianyin with a smile in her eyes.

Ye Lianyin answered quickly and nodded solemnly: "Yeah, I can't do anything without you, so you need to finish the things here quickly and go back."

Qin Zhaoci was originally just a blurted out joke, but she didn't expect to receive such a serious answer from Ye Lianyin, and was instantly choked up by the rice in her mouth.

Watching Qin Zhaoci suddenly pat her chest quickly, Ye Lianyin knew she was choking and quickly poured her a glass of water.

After Qin Zhaoci took it, she quickly drank it down. After swallowing the food, she breathed a sigh of relief as she came back to life.

"Next time, don't say such things while I'm eating, you almost choked me to death. "Qin Zhaoci patted her chest and shook her head in shock.

Ye Lianyin was amused by her big reaction and tilted her head, saying, "It's just a joke, I didn't expect you to react so much."

"Then you're really good at making serious jokes." Qin Zhaoci gritted her teeth, stood up, bent down, reached out to pinch Ye Lianyin's cheek, and pulled on both sides.

Ye Lianyin was in pain, frowned displeasedly, raised her hand and knocked her hand off, covered her face with both hands: "Qin Zhaoci, you are getting more bolder and bolder, my face has turned red by you."

"Has it? Let me see." Qin Zhaoci originally thought that she didn't use much strength, but she didn't expect to pinch Ye Lianyin hard, so she quickly moved her head to look.

Ye Lianyin looked at her approaching face, glanced up at her, quickly raised her hand to pinch Qin Zhaoci's face, pulled it on both sides, and pulled it back.

Qin Zhaoci frowned in pain, pushed away Ye Lianyin's hand, and covered her face in sorrow." You, you, you, bad woman! I just pinch you so light, but you pinch me so hard, it's really too much."

"Ah, I'm already sad because of the tan, but you still pulled my face so hard, what if I lose my appearance?"

After speaking, Qin Zhaoci's eyes began to turn slightly red, with a look of grievance and resentment.
