Lu Mingming did not notice Hong Yu's odd behavior because she was quickly grimaced by the next dish, which was bitter.
One mountain is higher than another, and one dish is more strongly flavored than the previous.
“…I’m going to get some water!”
Lu Mingming hurried to the self-service counter to get a cup of warm water, rinsing her mouth repeatedly to dispel the strange taste. In the end, the meal was not enjoyable at all.
“Before, when I went to a restaurant with Tangyuan, the dishes were just as bad…”
Lu Mingming wiped her mouth with a tissue and complained. She quickly remembered that the little cub hadn't seen Tangyuan, so she stopped herself.
“Let’s go look at the sea view for a while.”
She wanted to feel the night breeze and clear her mind, which had been numbed by the food.
When she stood on the deck, Lu Mingming stared at the starry sky, dumbfounded.
Lu Mingming suddenly remembered that the flying vehicle she was on was sailing through the sea of stars, not the sea!
This article is first published on <>. Ta-Read Novel, Since she was already here, she might as well enjoy it. Lu Mingming gritted her teeth, wrapped herself in a cashmere blanket, and held Hong Yu as she headed straight for a comfortable, wind-sheltered spot. The sea of stars was vast and magnificent. She didn’t know which area of the star sea they were in. The sky was a gradient of colors, shifting from silver-white to a brilliant orange-red. A deep blue, ribbon-like Milky Way ran through the center, with various planets like pearls and rare colored gems strung together, creating a magnificent spectacle from afar. In her previous life, she had only seen astronauts in the Milky Way or on the moon through television. She never expected to experience this day. Everything was so new. Lu Mingming gestured to Hong Yu, saying, “Baby, look how beautiful that is over there!” Hong Yu gazed into the distance, his eyes showing disinterest. This was no different from the ditch in front of the houses of the poorest families in their clan. Thinking this, he nodded in agreement with Lu Mingming’s words on the surface. Original text^. @From Ta-Read Novel. Perhaps there was indeed something commendable about it? Hong Yu looked again, his pale little face burying itself back into Lu Mingming’s neck, suppressing his discomfort. He couldn’t look any longer; if he did, he would get seasick and vomit. “What are you doing here?” A childish voice asked from behind her. Lu Mingming turned to see Lu Yan, wearing a thick bathrobe with two fair, tender legs exposed, hugging himself. His short hair was damp and steaming, and a drop of water slid down his smooth face to his chest. Lu Mingming’s gaze fixed on the drop of water. What, is this woman captivated by me? Lu Yan raised an eyebrow. The next second, Lu Mingming’s “magic claws” grabbed his collar. Without thinking, she put on her “caretaker” demeanor and chided him, “What’s going on? The wind is so strong, and your clothes are so open. Aren’t you afraid of catching a cold and worrying your parents?” Site: Ta-Read Novel, Welcome to download-^ After saying all this, Lu Mingming came to her senses, feeling so embarrassed that her toes curled. Good heavens, what was I thinking just now?!! He’s an adult!! The residual warmth of his skin after a bath made Lu Mingming want to burrow into a hole even more. Lu Yan was also stunned and remained frozen for a long moment before murmuring, “Okay.” His charm had failed him in front of a woman for the first time. Lu Yan adjusted his collar and looked down at his soft belly. Alright, he didn’t look very attractive like this. Lu Yan adopted a serious expression, as if about to say something important, “Thank you for the reminder, sister.” They looked at each other in silence. In the quiet atmosphere, Lu Mingming was the first to break the silence, “You said earlier that the chef’s cooking isn’t good. What’s the reason?” Ta-Read Little~. >Novel—*.—Free*No Ads>Pop-ups, and you can>-.* Interact with fellow book lovers. Lu Mingming couldn’t help but ask this question, thinking about every dish from dinner. Mentioning this person, Lu Yan easily thought of the corresponding individual and explained, “Have you seen Lu Guo? She’s a little girl our team unexpectedly found. She used to work in a Michelin-starred restaurant. We didn’t have a chef at the time, so we kept her to cook. In reality, there’s no other connection.” “So that’s how it is!” Lu Mingming exclaimed. “It’s quite capable for her to cook so much by herself. However, she uses too much seasoning. Some dishes are too salty, some too spicy, and some are too bitter.” Lu Yan said with a hint of helplessness, “Yes. Inviting you to cook has this underlying reason; we hope you can curb Lu Guo’s proud and complacent nature.” While Lu Yan was speaking, he didn’t notice that his taste preferences had gradually shifted from those of a cub to those of a high-ranking adult. “It’s a shame that last night’s seafood was not perfect, as the cubs couldn’t eat such strong flavors.” Lu Mingming said tactfully. This article is first published on <>. Ta-Read Novel, “You can try other dishes,” Lu Yan earnestly recommended other dishes. “But I didn’t see the dishes you mentioned?” Lu Mingming was puzzled. Were they not eating in the same cafeteria? It turned out they really weren’t eating in the same cafeteria. Lu Yan couldn’t help but chuckle, a slight smile in his voice, “You ate in Cafeteria One, didn’t you? Cafeteria One served seafood last night. Besides that, we have a total of ten cafeterias, each responsible for different dishes. You can try Cafeteria Eight tomorrow. There, Gu’s senior caretaker works. Also, we learned about buying tea from her before.” Lu Yan kept talking, on the verge of revealing his identity. Lu Mingming intentionally reminded him, “I didn’t expect you, a little kid, to know so much.” The previously talkative little cub suddenly fell silent, and the usually calm Lu Yan became a bit flustered.

I want to know more about the tea.” Lu Mingming softened her voice and changed the subject, giving him an out. “Of course, I’ll take you there.” Under Lu Yan’s lead, the crew members of the luxurious giant ship greeted them with immense respect. “Young Master Lu, hello!” “Young Master Lu is taking streamer Mingming to play? Have fun.” “Young Master Lu, please send my regards to the boss.” Lu Yan, pretending to put his hands behind his back, replied, perfectly embodying the role of a young master. Lu Mingming’s muscles ached from suppressing her laughter. If the bald man hadn’t told her all this, she might have truly believed it! Lu Mingming thought about those cubs who concealed their identities. They must have been equally flawed in their daily lives, otherwise, they wouldn't have been discovered by Jasmine.

As the elevator ascended, the golden numbers rose, finally stopping at “4.” The entrance to the fourth floor had a sign that read “Staff Dormitory Area.” Lu Yan walked directly to the last room and knocked. Within three seconds, the door opened, and a stooped old woman emerged. Seeing Lu Yan, a look of seriousness and apprehension appeared in her eyes, “Why have you come personally?” Ta-Read-Little<.>Novel, Free Reading Online Without Ads-~> “Grandma, you’ve forgotten again.

Does Young Master Lu need anything?” Lu Yan took the opportunity to introduce Lu Mingming, “This sister wants to know where those teas were discovered?” “Oh, it’s the one who made matcha cookies in the live stream last time. I know.” The old woman smiled warmly and enthusiastically invited them in. “Please come in quickly.” Upon entering, Lu Yan led Lu Mingming to the sofa, and the old woman poured them both a cup of tea. The old woman smiled, her face full of wrinkles, “My brewing is not as good as yours. I used to think tea was a type of spice, but I didn’t expect it to be an ingredient for food and drinks. Haha, it’s fortunate you passed down the legacy of tea. Otherwise, tea would be wasted in our common hands.” “The legacy of tea?” Original text&From Ta-Read Novel App, &~For more.

I discovered these things on a planet when I was young.” A wistful expression appeared on her aged face. “There were almost no native inhabitants left on that planet. To this day, I only remember the endless sea there. What was it called… I remember it was called Blue Star?”
