Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Zhou Ling furrowed his brow in disbelief. “How can this be?”
If his brother and sister-in-law had truly reappeared on the planet known as Golden Rice Valley after their disappearance, this news would undoubtedly spark a conflict between the two nations.
Furthermore, Golden Rice Planet had already been developed into a tourist destination, and communication through the internet was even more accessible than before. So why hadn’t his brother reached out to him? Could they be held captive?
“Don’t worry. I’ve already asked Su MO for assistance. Tonight, Su MO will dispatch their most skilled investigator to Golden Rice Planet to inquire about my brother and sister-in-law’s whereabouts. If everything goes well, we should receive relevant information by next week.”
Upon hearing that Liao Ning had sought help from Su MO, Zhou Ling felt somewhat relieved. As an alliance colonel, it was challenging for him to deploy personnel to conduct ground investigations in the empire. If the empire were to discover their intentions, regardless of their motives, it could potentially ignite a diplomatic crisis between the two nations.
“Ningning, I’d like to trace the origin of this anonymous email and try to determine the sender’s location. I’m concerned,” Zhou Ling expressed, his eyes reflecting worry.
Liao Ning swiftly granted him access to her Al and handed it over. “Here, it’s best if you can find out. I’m also anxious.”
However, deep down, Liao Ning suspected that Zhou Ling would unlikely succeed. After all, the email had been sent from her own mind. But what if the creator of the system had made a mistake? She was genuinely curious about the identity of the system’s creator and their motivations for designing it to save Zhou Ling, the Zhou family, and even the two little villains.
Zhou Ling held Liao Ning’s Al and delved into it for several hours. He made numerous attempts to trace the sender’s location but to no avail. He even called upon Lan Yin and employed the military’s most advanced technology to obtain several fake addresses. It was apparent that the individual who had sent the email possessed technology more advanced than that of the entire alliance military, or perhaps even the entire universe.
“How is this possible? Could this email be from the future?” Lan Yin speculated after their repeated failed attempts.
Zhou Ling remained silent, but his expression appeared noticeably more relaxed than before. While he couldn’t determine if the email originated from the future, he believed that the sender had no malicious intentions. If they possessed technology surpassing the current era and harbored hostility towards the alliance and the empire, they could easily exploit this method to cripple both countries. There was no need for such elaborate measures.
“Let it go. It seems the sender has no ill will. Perhaps they genuinely want to assist us, ” Zhou Ling sighed, a sense of relief washing over him.
Lan Yin concurred with Zhou Ling’s assessment and nodded, ready to take his leave. “If there’s nothing else, Boss, I’ll head out.”
“Wait, let’s have a meal together before you go.” Liao Ning, noticing the commotion, poked her head out of the kitchen and halted Lan Yin, who was about to depart.
Zhou Ling shared the same thought and gently pressed down on Lan Yin’s shoulder, urging him to stay. “Join us for dinner before you leave.”
Lan Yin obediently took a seat. Since Boss had found love, he and his brothers had become frequent beneficiaries of everyone’s hospitality. Although he felt a bit bashful about it, his sister-in-law’s cooking was incredibly delicious. He couldn’t and didn’t want to refuse their kindness!
Liao Ning had already entered the kitchen to wash the ingredients. Now, she activated the live-streaming system and began preparing for the livestream.
“Good afternoon, everyone. I’m ‘My Child Is The Best.’ Today, I’m excited to share with you two delightful snacks—crispy tofu and wavy potatoes.”
[Why is Liao Ning preparing so many dishes today?]
[Are there guests at home?]
[Oh no, I might not even be able to learn a single dish if Liao Ning teaches me.
What should I do now?]
[Don’t worry, previous commenter. I recall that the live-streamer will prepare edited and recorded videos of each dish. You can replay them as many times as you need until you learn.]
“Yes, we do have guests at home today. Since it’s almost dinner time, I thought of preparing a few extra dishes. But for now, let me show you two quick bites to satisfy everyone’s hunger.”
As Liao Ning clarified, she opened the tofu packaging. “Cut the tofu into bite-sized pieces and use kitchen paper to absorb any excess moisture from the surface. Then, heat the oil to around 70% of its maximum temperature and deep-fry the tofu until it turns golden brown. Once done, remove it from the oil. ”
[What temperature is 70% oil heat?]
[The tofu seems crispy, but will it be flavorful?]
