He raised his hand and tousled Su Ruan’s hair, "Ruan Ruan, go wait at the dining table. I’ll bring the dishes."
Su Ruan humd lightly, handing over the rest of the tasks to him, and turned to leave the kitchen.
A few minutes later, the two sat facing each other, with a luxurious three-course al and soup on the table.
Seeing Lu Shinian sitting down, Su Ruan spoke up, "Try it."
"Anything Ruan Ruan makes surely tastes great," Lu Shinian said, picking up so vinegar sautéed shredded potatoes with his chopsticks and placing it in his mouth.
A bit sour, but not at all overwhelming to the senses; instead, there was an indescribable refreshing aroma.
In the past, even natural vegetables were just simply boiled and eaten with a little salt, unlike now, which actually had a faint sour taste.
For Lu Shinian, this was a novel experience, so much so that he almost swept through the dishes like a whirlwind.
Su Ruan, having just taken two bites: ???
Looking at the empty plate, Su Ruan’s lips twitched as she helplessly put down her chopsticks.
"Commander Lu has quite the appetite." She supported her cheek with one hand, speaking with a mischievous smile.
Lu Shinian calmly put down his chopsticks, replying with a deep "hmm," but couldn’t help wondering if Ruan Ruan would mind him being such a big eater.
Lu Shinian appeared calm on the surface, but internally, his thoughts were spinning in circles.
His eyelashes cast a shadow over his eye socket, obscuring the light in his eyes, yet he reluctantly lifted his gaze to Su Ruan, with a deep-seated longing in the depths of his pupils.

In the Star Domain, aboard the Lion Star Thief Group’s starship.
Su Hu sighed heavily, glaring at Ye Qing across from him.
"This ti, didn’t even manage to see my sister, and the nutritional supplent you bought has too many impurities!"
Ye Qing adjusted his glasses calmly, "A reminder, it’s because your spiritual power level is high."
Su Hu: ...
"What? Is it wrong for to have high spiritual power level? Hmph!"
"Certainly not." Ye Qing smiled, "I bought the best nutritional supplent available in the market."
When Su Hu heard this, he felt even worse.
"Damn, if I keep eating these things, I’m going to hit the Ancestral Stage."
He muttered, "Why are there so many impurities in this lousy nutritional supplent!"
Ye Qing put his hand down, his tone unusually serious, "It’s because there are too many impurities in the energy stones."
Few know that energy stone powder is added to nutritional supplents.
Energy stone powder, as the na implies, is created by grinding energy stones into powder.
Only nutritional supplents with added energy stone powder can provide sufficient fullness and maintain basic human activities.
Ordinary people will never react to such nutritional supplents in their lifeti, as their spiritual power level is only E, for them, these supplents are rely food for sustenance.
But for those with spiritual power at A-level, it could likely lead to the phenonon of hitting the Ancestral Stage.
Because there are too many impurities in the energy stones.
Ye Qing sighed, "I’ve heard the impurities in newly mined energy stones are increasing."
"In the future, it might..."
That terrible guess, he ultimately didn’t dare to voice.
Su Hu’s mind was rarely bright for once and guessed what he wanted to say, his eyes flared with annoyance, and he slapped Ye Qing’s shoulder, "Forget that, see if you can contact my sister."
"Su Ruan has set her account to reject ssages from strangers, so even though I know her Star Network account, I can’t ssage her."
"But..."
Ye Qing paused, "Has Su Ruan been to the Second World before? Can you recall her na?"
Su Hu tried to rember, "She went once, it’s sothing Su? Tang Susu?"
Ye Qing: ...
"Anyway, I’ll try." Ye Qing stood up, rubbing his shoulder, "Boss, take it easy next ti, I’m not as robust as you."
Su Hu "oh"-ed, sat down, and continued drinking his nutritional supplent.
Ye Qing continued to find a way to contact Su Ruan.

On Tuesday, Su Ruan once again entered the Second World, ready to finalize the design of the first set of military uniforms and start production.
She had barely been online for a minute when Lu Shinian logged in.
Lu Shinian was indeed monitoring her! She wondered why it was so coincidental before, with both of them almost logging in at the sa ti.
Su Ruan’s long eyelashes fluttered slightly, pretending not to know that "Little Sweet" was Lu Shinian, she spoke, "Little Sweet, what a coincidence."
Lu Shinian’s hand paused, and he said in a deep voice, "Just call Little Lu."
"I think ’Little Sweet’ is a pretty good nickna." Su Ruan said with a mischievous smile, "I’ll call you Little Sweet from now on."
Lu Shinian instinctively raised his hand, touched the mask securely on his face, his eyes flickering, a glimr of dark light passing through his pitch-black pupils.
If it weren’t confird that he hadn’t exposed his identity before Su Ruan, he would have thought Su Ruan knew he was Lu Shinian.
Confident Lu Shinian completely ignored the possibility of experiencing the Ancestral Stage in the Second World, so he was quite certain he hadn’t been exposed. As for why she suddenly called him Little Sweet, perhaps it was a sudden whimsy?
Su Ruan noticed his silence, watching him with interest.
Due to system reset and refresh, the mask previously removed by Lu Shinian was now securely back on his face.
As long as she didn’t say, Commander Lu definitely wouldn’t realize she had already recognized his identity.
Her lips curved slightly, her eyebrows carrying a hint of playful mischievousness.
"I’ve finalized the design of the first military uniform, now I need to asure your size to buy materials and make it."
Lu Shinian nodded slightly, responding, "Alright."
He stood upright, seemingly ready.
However, Su Ruan then said, "Take off your clothes."
"Take off clothes?" He repeated, his gaze faintly turning dangerous.
His Ruan Ruan, wanting to see another man’s body? Though now this "other man" is himself, but his Ruan Ruan doesn’t know that.
Su Ruan seed unaware of the danger in Lu Shinian’s words, speaking with a mischievous smile, "Yes, take off your clothes."
"Military uniform needs to be fitted closely, how can you do without taking off clothes?"
"Just take off what’s necessary."
Lu Shinian did not move.
Seeing this, Su Ruan deliberately said, "If you don’t cooperate, I’ll have to find soone else."
How could Lu Shinian allow Su Ruan to find another man, his gaze narrowed, responding in an indiscernible tone, "I’ll take off."
Due to Star Network privacy settings, Lu Shinian retained a pair of close-fitting shorts.
One had to admit, Lu Shinian’s physique was excellent, beautifully defined eight-pack abs and near-perfect rmaid lines, broad shoulders, a narrow waist, exuding sensuality.
Su Ruan, holding a soft asuring tape, stood in front of Lu Shinian, slightly raising her head to look at him, a smile dancing on her lips.
"I’ll start asuring now."
She said, both hands holding the soft tape, resting it against Lu Shinian’s chest...
