Wanted Criminal ——2Though Mo Qiang was well aware of what happened between a husband and wife. She did not think that Shao Hui would look at her in that way, after all, didn't he start crying the second she approached him? How can he even get aroused by her presence? It was simply impossible!



More importantly, the pain of the stab was still fresh in her mind. She had never read books that consisted of enemies to lovers troupe and thus Mo Qiang with her straightforward thinking did not think that there was any way Shao Hui would change his thought process.

Xiao Jiao who knew what Mo Qiang was simply speechless. She did not know whether to cheer or cry upon stumbling on such a dense host, in the end, she decided to cheer over the fact that with Mo Qiang being this dense and careful, they would be able to complete their missions without any worries though a part of her heart lit three candles for the three mers who would have a hard time claiming this woman as theirs in the future.

' But then again who asked them to show such an evil side to Mo Qiang? They deserve it,' Xiao Jiao thought in her head while rubbing Mo Qiang on the head.

On the other side, Shao Hui had no idea that there was a rather rough road in front of him. At this moment he was sitting on his bed while trying to remember his grandmother's old and kind face, he did not wish for his body to react to Mo Qiang but the more he tried to suppress it the more the image in his head couldn't help but become even more pronounced and the more vividly he remembered the sight that he feasted upon, the more his little brother rouse proudly.

" Mhmm lookie lookie, what is this?" a teasing voice came from behind causing Shao Hui to immediately reach forward and then cover his bottom half with a pillow as he turned to look at Yin Fu and exasperatedly said, " Brother Fu what is the meaning of this? What are you doing?"

" Thats what I wanted to ask," Yin Fu looked at Shao Hui with his sharp eyes.

Dreamy eyes——check.

Flushed cheeks ——check.

Erection——check.

Yin Fu pushed up his reading glasses and then sat down next to Shao Hui, he was no novice when it came to such a thing.

[ He is a novice. Please don't take his bits of advice in any way.]

With such reactions, it was impossible for nothing to happen between Shao Hui and Mo Qiang. Something did happen inside the bathing room and Yin Fu was quite excited to find out about this, in this house till now he thought he was the only one who was battling with his inner urges to pounce on Mo Qiang but now that there was a comrade next to him, Yin Fu felt like he was no longer alone.

He reached forward and then clutched Shao Hui's hand tightly with both of his hands as he said with a wistful voice, " You have no idea how happy I am now that you have realized the charms of our wife, Hui'er." With his eyes closed, Yin Fu sighed as if he was thinking about something important as he reminisced about the so-called charms of Mo Qiang that he had noted and saved in his tablets as well as monitor.

" What are you talking about brother Fu?" Shao Hui on the other hand felt like there was a few screws loose in Yin Fu's head ever since he fell for Mo Qiang. " I am not someone who would fall for someone's body!" He haughtily stated with a scoff. " I am more of a personality type of guy, I like a gentle and wise woman... so what if her assets are nice? In the end, she is just a ditsy woman! Who cannot even fathom something as simple as a nosebleed——" he stopped talking because Shao Hui realised that he may or may not have said something unnecessary.

And sure enough, when he looked at Yin Fu, the latter was looking at him with a sly smile on his face.

" Oh ho so you gotta a nosebleed," Yin Fu slyly looked at Shao Hui whose expression turned complicated as he stubbornly said, " I ... It's not my fault. It's something that is normal all right...she just...anyway, I am telling you..you are wrong."

" Am I?" Yin Fu drawled with a sinister expression as he leaned forward and whispered in Shao Hui's ears. " My dear Hui'er, did you imagine yourself getting utterly, completely at the mercy of Qiang? Or did you imagine her lustful expression when you give it to her.. imagine her calling out your name. Hui'er... Hui'er...."

BANG!!

The pillow that was on Shao Hui's lap flew off while his physical needs overwhelmed his heartfelt ones. Shao Hui hurriedly snatched his other pillow and covered his important bits before lowering his head as he whispered, " Did you do that deliberately?"

" I was just trying to show you the truth," Yin Fu smiled like a demon of lust who was straying an innocent child from the right path. " There is no reaction without desire, Hui'er...." He then looked at the pillow that was covering Shao Hui's member and cheekily grinned before saying, " I have some personal materials that you can use you know ...all includes Mo Qiang."

"...", Shao Hui mumbled something causing Yin Fu to furrow his brows and then lean towards him before saying, " What did you say?"

" Just send it to me on my monitor via Star Drop," repeated Shao Hui causing Yin Fu's expression to become something like ——(｀ω') this.

Xie Jie on the other hand looked at the two mers who were talking nothing but nonsense and then rolled his eyes before noting down another thing that he needed to talk to his psychiatrist about. He needed to make sure that he was not the one who was going mad and instead, it was these two who were getting all h*rny and losing their minds.

He scoffed as he thought in his head, ' To think they will drop their guards so soon. How naive. They even forgot what Mo Qiang did to them, a good thing that I still have some rationality within me.'

-----------------

Wanted Criminal ——3Mo Qiang had no idea what was going on with the three mers, she took a bath and then went to eat breakfast. While she was no fan of eating the bland monster meat which was way too rubbery and hard without any proper cooking method. There was nothing she could do, without proper spices how was she even supposed to cook these things? She needed real salt, soy sauce and pepper or chillies before she could even make these things palatable!



Her mother had suggested using a quick way to deal with the elderly three-horned chicken such that they would not suffer a lot. Three-horned chickens were fiercely competitive, the younger ones even if they were from the same pack would start fighting against the elderly ones.

While the leader protected the pack from any external entities he did not care what happened within the pack. Instead, they had a strict code of fittest of survival. What was more it also prepared the young ones to take charge which was why many elderly three-horned chickens were killed by the young ones who were still growing.

Mo Qiang still thought that it was too much of a shame to eat the boiled meat of the three-horned chicken with just a little bit of salt solution. Though the scientists tried to copy the taste of salt to the tee by using all sorts of techniques and technology, in the end, the real thing was simply unmatchable.

What was more, the solutions only caused the meat to turn even more games and rubbery which completely ruined the taste of the meat which was nourished with green energy.

" This is the worst," she murmured under her breath as she finished eating the boiled meat of Black Sea Eel and tried to stop it from coming back up. Next to her Mo Xifeng heard what Mo Qiang said but did not comment, she had already noticed that her sister had gotten more picky with meat and the things that she put in her mouth.

In the past as long as it was meat she would not mind the gamey and rubbery taste and simply finish everything. But now, she did not like to eat anything meat in fact, Mo Xifeng looked down at the chopsticks which were moving towards her bowl and dropping the greenish meat —— Mo Qiang barely ate anything.

" You need to finish it yourself," Mo Xifeng told Mo Qiang in a whisper. She had helped Mo Qiang finish her meat dishes in the past but this couldn't go on. The temperature outside was too low and Mo Qiang needed to eat meat to keep the insides of her body warm, if she continued like this she would end up catching a cold.

Mo Qiang on the other hand simply snatched Mo Xifeng's empty bowl and exchanged it with her half-full one then whispered back, " If I eat anymore then I will vomit everything wouldn't that be a loss?"

Mo Xifeng : ( * '~'*)

Just as the two sisters were whispering, Wen Gui stepped out of the kitchen and then looked at Mo Xifeng's half-filled bowl before frowning, " Xifeng why haven't you finished your meal till now? Look at your sister, she has already finished eating."

Mo Xifeng who was suddenly scolded for no reason: "..."

Mo Qiang: (￣ω￣;) Just take this blame once.

" You said the same thing last time," Mo Xifeng hissed as she started to eat Mo Qiang's leftovers. Though she had a frown on her face, she ate the entire thing without complaining.

" Thats the way, you two should not be picky," Wen Gui lectured as he picked up the dishes and then placed them in the cleaning robot. " The weather is getting colder outside as the Red Storm is approaching, who knows what kind of conditions it might bring? You need to strengthen your bodies."

Mo Xifeng looked at Mo Qiang, she wanted to tell Wen Gui that with how her sister was acting, she would be able to stand against a cyclone itself but with Mo Qiang, she wasn't even sure that she would be able to handle a gust of wind.

Mo Qiang looked away from Mo Xifeng behaving as if she couldn't see anything including the accusatory gaze of her sister.

Just as Wen Gui was going to dive further into the matter of how important it was for one to take care of their body, the door opened and Mo Yan stepped inside the house.

She looked at Mo Qiang and Mo Xifeng before smiling, " Ah good thing that you two are here." She then turned to look at the woman behind her and invited her in, " Come inside Miss Tan."

Mo Qiang and Mo Xifeng turned to look at Tan Si who was behind Mo Yan and suddenly frowned together.

It wasn't because they were startled by Tan Si's appearance, though the woman had a tall build with a dark complexion and a patch on the right eye, neither of the two sisters was the kind to judge someone by their appearance.

But it was the rumours that had always circulated Tan Si. Though the woman was not someone whom they personally knew, she was infamous in the Dead Star for her sinful and traitorous actions. There was a time when Tan Si was a great soldier but then she stole a bunch of information from the army regarding the mecha craft and sold it to their enemy for a large sum of money.

Though she cleaned herself nicely, Fu Zhao was not someone who played marbles while seizing the throne from her mother. She was able to trace Tan Si quickly and sent her to the Damned Star where the notorious murderers and criminals lived but then Tan Si managed to crawl back out of that place.

As she behaved nicely to everyone and did not cause any trouble because she was on her best behaviour Fu Zhao allowed her to move to the Dead Star where the situation was better than the Damned Star.

Even Mo Qiang knew who was Tan Si, so there was no way Mo Yan did not know who this woman was and what this Tan Si did in the Imperial Star. Thus she couldn't help but shoot a bewildered glance at Mo Xifeng who was frowning as well including Wen Gui as they did not know what Mo Yan was thinking!

-------------

Tan Si

—————-

" These two are my daughters," Mo Yan introduced Mo Qiang and Mo Xifeng to Tan Si who glanced at the two and smiled.

" You two have grown so big, I saw you two when you were this small," she used her hand to show how small Mo Qiang and Mo Xifeng would have been when she saw them last time. " But then I was caught and thrown to that Damned Star and never saw you two again. HAHAHA!"

Neither Mo Qiang nor Mo Xifeng knew what was there to laugh about but they still laughed a little along with Tan Si.

Mo Xifeng turned to look at Mo Qiang before whispering, " Why are you laughing?"

" I don't know, I am just accompanying her in laughing," Mo Qiang replied, she did not know what was going on anyway, so wasn't it fine to just go along with the flow?

Mo Xifeng glanced at her sister who was laughing for no reason and suddenly felt exasperated. It seems that her sister was far more sociable than she expected her to be, while the two sisters were busy with their own thoughts Mo Yan sat down on the chair which belonged to the head of the house.

She then urged Tan Si to take a seat as well before turning to look at her confused family members and started explaining, " Madam Tan has been working as a hunter for a long time, she had also gone to the Srephere dimension to hunt Violet Mountain Cows. Though she did not catch one, she did bring back a horn which is a great feat in itself."

Only then did they realize that Mo Yan brought Tan Si here because the latter had ventured into the Srephere dimension. Mo Qiang turned to look at Tan Si and narrowed her eyes with suspicion swirling in them before asking, " What do you want in exchange Madam Tan?"

She had worked in the corporate world for far too long and knew that no one would work for 'free' and ' for the sake of kindness,' there must be a reason why Tan Si was here to help them and Mo Qiang was not going to agree without finding out the clause that this woman had set for them in exchange for her help.

Didn't a senior from the office bring her an expensive cake saying that he just couldn't see her working hard overtime? And then we saw that she had taken a bite of that expensive pastry, and he told her that it cost more than four hundred yuan. Mo Qiang had to repay those four hundred yuan by working forty nights as overtime in exchange for that senior!

She did not believe that there was anything such as a free lunch in this world!

Mo Yan did not stop Mo Qiang this time because she knew that her daughter had her own plans and considerations which was why she calmly picked up the glass that held the maple syrup water and then took a sip from it without inputting another word.

Tan Si looked at Mo Qiang's straightforward manner and burst out laughing, she patted the table under her palm and then spoke while wiping the tears which were sticking to the corner of her eyes, " You are a smart woman, Miss Mo. I thought you were just a boorish thug who didn't know anything but looks like the rumours were false. You are clearly very smart!"

She then nodded and then said, " You are right. The reason I came with your mother is because she agreed to pay me a hefty sum of money. You might be already aware of this fact but I will tell you again just in case —— No one is your bigger supporter than money. Even your own family members might not support you but money will till the end."

She snapped her fingers and looked at Mo Qiang with a devilish grin before saying, " As long as you pay me a good sum of money I will not only act as your guide but as your protector and helper. My responsibilities depend on how much you are willing to pay."

With that, she leaned backwards in her seat and then continued speaking, " The more you pay, the harder I will work."

"And how much money do you want?" Mo Xifeng asked with a slight raise of her brow. She looked at the expensive shirt along with the black pants that Tan Si was wearing and if she wasn't wrong these two pieces of clothes cost more than their entire house.

Tan Si smirked at Mo Xifeng's question and then raised her hand before showing three of her fingers, "Three million star coins. For a single trip, if you want my help in another one then we will have to redo the payment."

Mo Qiang's expression changed as she looked at Tan Si and said, " Are you trying to rob a bank?"

" I am not," while leaning on the chair, Tan Si looked at Mo Qiang with a smile. " You might not know this but the dimension of Srephere is not as simple as it looks, there are a lot of things that we need to consider before we can step into that place." She then pointed to her eye which was hidden behind a patch and then said, " Do you see this? It was done by the venom of the Violet Mountain Cow. Nothing could be done after that, do you still think that it's not worth it."

" Just take her with you," Xiao Jiao commented while sitting on the top of Mo Qiang's head. " We were going to hire someone anyway."

" Not someone... I was thinking of hiring a bunch of soldiers and not just a single one," Mo Qiang stated as she looked at Tan Si, with her eyes narrowed she said, " Miss Tan, I am not unwilling to pay you that sum but are you worth it?" She questioned not wanting to pay such a large sum of money for no reason.

Tan Si smiled and then snapped her fingers.

-------------------

Finally readyMo Qiang looked at the table that had been snapped into two and raised her head to look at Madam Tan before stating, " That skill was cool but I would like to tell you that you are gonna pay for our dining table."



"Wha..What really? I thought you were going to be impressed," Tan Si remarked looking at Mo Qiang in disbelief. She showed her skills thinking that Mo Qiang would start admiring her but instead, she was telling her that she needed to pay for the dining table, was this woman even more miserly than her?

" Of course I am impressed but that does not mean that you will not have to pay for the table," Mo Qiang did not know what happened after Tan Si snapped her fingers but Xiao Jiao told her that Tan Si's clothes were especially designed and she was actually carrying a bunch of insects that were similar to smaller looking termites but could eat anything from wood to bones.

So when Tan Si snapped her fingers those termites flew out of her clothes and then nibbled the table within seconds. Though this thing was indeed surprising, Mo Qiang couldn't help but be a bit spooked out after finding out that the fabric of the clothes that Tan Si was wearing held millions of mutated termites on them.

How did she even tame them? Mo Qiang questioned in her head but then she thought about how she couldn't be bothered by the training methods that Tan Si employed.

Tan Si stared at Mo Qiang speechless before she rolled her eyes and then said, " Fine you can take it out of my payment but let me tell you not a penny more. if I see you cutting around edges then you will suffer, understand?"

" You don't have to worry," Mo Qiang's voice was polite as she looked at the woman in front of her and a maddening smile crept over her lips. She said, " I know that your loyalty can only be bought with money and since I do not want anyone to backstab me when I need them, I will not do anything to let you down but...." She raised her hand and then placed it on Mo Xifeng's shoulder before continuing, " However if you do something as backstabbing me in the dimension of Srephere, then I will have you know that I am not the type of woman who would leave the matter at rest, isn't that right Xifeng?"

Though Mo Xifeng felt like she was being used as a bouncer who stood outside the entrances of those shady pubs, whom their bosses called inside when they wanted to teach someone a lesson. She still sighed and agreed with Mo Qiang, " You are right sister Qiang."

Never mind, even though Mo Qiang used her as a back shield she was not wrong either. If Tan Si dared to do anything to Mo Qiang or anyone in the family, Mo Xifeng wouldn't mind dealing with her even if it meant chasing after her until she dropped dead.

As Mo Xifeng turned to look at Tan Si, she released her aura without any restraints causing Tan Si to realize that the Mo family was not someone she could play around with as she wished.

" All right, all right there is no need for you to worry about it so much about something so small," Tan Si waved her hand and then looked at Mo Qiang and Mo Xifeng with a smile. " If you are worried then we can sign a contract, this way neither party would have to suffer a loss."

Mo Qiang thought that this suggestion was indeed better and thus she agreed with Tan Si. The two of them signed a contract before Tan Si explained that it was better to leave for the Srephere dimension tomorrow as she was busy with something else.

Though Mo Qiang wanted to leave as soon as possible, she had already paid the sum of money to Tan Si in advance. Thus she could only agree for the time being anyway it wasn't a big deal to leave after waiting for another day.

Once the contract was signed Tan Si yawned and then arched her back before saying, " Then I will go and take a nap."

" Wait a minute did you not say that you had something important to do?" Mo Qiang immediately stopped Tan Si from leaving when she heard that the woman wanted to take a nap instead of heading out to do her very important task.

Tan Si who stood in front of the threshold of the house smiled slyly and then said, " Of course taking a nap is the most important thing, don't you know? If my body doesn't finish taking the rest that it deserves, how do you expect me to work?"

With that, she did not give Mo Qiang a chance to say anything and then simply raised her hand before taking her leave.

Mo Qiang was simply speechless, she then turned to look at her mother before asking, "What's going on? Why did you bring someone like her to the house?"

Even Mo Xifeng and Wen Gui turned to look at Mo Yan before Wen Gui said, " Qi Qi is right. You better have a good explanation as to why I should leave my daughter in the hands of that woman who looks completely unreliable."

" I agree that Tan Si is unreliable but she is a smart woman and has gone on many hunts in the past," Mo Yan finally spoke after everything was finished. She looked at her family and then stated with a calm voice, " You might not know this but she was once recruited by the top hunting guild as a guide to the Prics dimension and you all might already know this...that star is infected with deadly beasts yet Tan Si was able to bring everyone back safely."

She paused and then continued, " She is indeed a bit greedy and unlikeable but that woman knows her way around many dimensions where many might lose their lives."

No one said anything after Mo Yan finished speaking though Wen Gui was not willing to trust Tan Si, he had to admit that his wife wouldn't do anything harmful to their daughters as for Mo Qiang, she did not say anything because she received a message from Lian Shou telling her that the Caffeitrol was finally ready.

VideoMo Qiang immediately rushed to the lab where she had left Lian Shou. She did not want to waste another minute in reviving the Magma Bees, others might say that she was being a bit too pushy but there was a reason for Mo Qiang to be this pushy and that was —— Magma Bees were wonderful pollinators!



Not only did the honey produced by the Magma Bees have healing properties along with a bunch of great effects, Magma Bees could easily pollinate even those plants that were hard to pollinate. If she were to revive them, it wouldn't take long for Mo Qiang's fields to get bigger, more importantly, she wanted to create a large grape farm!

Wine, jam and raisins! There was no end to such good things! How can she slow down the progress of something so great? It had to be done as quickly as possible such that her account could go jingle jingle.

" Your only motivation to work hard is money right?" Xiao Jiao was clearly dissatisfied with how Mo Qiang did not think of reviving nature but money. She should have been working for the goodness of the world after being chosen as the flag bearer but instead, all her focus was on money.

Xiao Jiao was sure that Mo Qiang wouldn't even lift a finger much less step down from the bed if she was told that there was no money after doing so much work.

Mo Qiang clicked her tongue and then said, " You are wrong," she then turned to look at Xiao Jiao and explained patiently, " If you work under someone then you have the right to salary as well as incentives, be glad that I am only taking money for my hard work and not asking for extra incentives."

[ So you don't want any more levelling updates?]

No sooner did Mo Qiang finish complaining to Xiao Jiao, Xiao An who always acted as Xiao Jiao's protector immediately chimed in the conversation.

" Look at your tasks and then look at the levelling updates, I am surprised that you are not embarrassed saying such a thing," Mo Qiang however was not even bothered by the threat that Xiao An used, instead she sneered coldly at him. Did they think that they could suppress her as they wanted? Not possible!

Xiao An wanted to fight back but realized that Mo Qiang was right, he had indeed not offered her some great levelling updates and thus grew silent.

Seeing that the brat was no longer speaking, Mo Qiang shot the blue screen a smug look before heading towards the laboratory which was not further from where she stood. In another three minutes, she arrived at the laboratory where Lian Shou was supposed to be but as soon as she pushed the door open, Mo Qiang was surprised by the pandemonium inside.

There were feathers all over the place, with a few holes in the ground. She could hear the 'puck puck puckah', of the three-horned chicken and thus followed the sound only to find two chickens fighting with each other.

No, it was wrong to say that.

One was indeed a three-horned chicken but the other one was a human. With bright rainbow hair that had been pulled and chewed in places Lian Shou no longer looked like the classy Lian Shou whom Mo Qiang met, her lab coat was covered in glorious coloured feathers and she was currently using a broom to push the three-horned chicken back.

" I am telling you to stop coming after me! I have finished the task given by your master, so you better back off!" She shouted at the three-horned chicken.

However, the three-horned chicken was clearly not used to being told off what was more she was young and a female, and her temper was clearly not as good as her mother's.

She raised her wings on the side with a haughty cry of war and then rushed at Lian Shou. With her beak pecking at Lian Shou, it seemed that the latter would lose without even getting a chance to fight back but clearly Lian Shou had learned a few things. Not only was she crazily fast in defending herself, but she even used the long pole of the broom to block the beak of the three-horned chicken.

Mo Qiang had never seen something so funny as well as action-packed at the same time, a new idea suddenly popped into her head as she started to record the fight. Star Net gave a lot of options to its users one of them was to upload videos and monetize them, Mo Qiang knew that something like this was super duper rare and would definitely attract the attention of the viewers, thus indeed, stopping the three-horned chicken and saving Lian Shou, she recorded the fight.

Anyways, Lian Shou's mother, Madam Lian owed them a lot of money. This could be counted as a small interest repaid by Lian Shou instead of her mother.

On the other hand, the three-horned chicken seemed to have realised that her usual tactics were not working so she pulled back, shook her beautiful feather mane and then let out another cry before swivelling on the spot and kicking Lian Shou hard.

This was a skill that the three-horned chicken had learned after watching the drama —— ' Your Highness Love Me Gentle.'

In the drama, the female lead kicked her lover just like this and the three-horned chicken wanted to try it as well!

" Wow!" Mo Qiang did not expect something like this to happen after all, the three-horned chicken to learn a move like that. She only placed the television in the large coop because she was getting tired of the female three-horned chicken fighting with the male ones. She only wanted to test her luck if these three horned chickens were sentient enough to understand the dramas made by humans or not but Mo Qiang did not expect that they would not only understand but even start following the scenes enacted in the drama and reenacting them all!

-----------

Revival of Magma Bees —-1Lian Shou on the other hand was sent flying away. Her body hit the opposite wall and then she slid down comically before coming to a rest on the floor but even so, when she saw that Mo Qiang was recording the video instead of helping her, she gritted her teeth and then said to Mo Qiang, " What is the meaning of this? Shouldn't you have helped me just now?"



" Hmm?" Mo Qiang calmly saved the video and then turned to look at Lian Shou before saying, " I heard that we can earn money through this platform, the more money I earn through this video, the more interest will be shelved off your debt. Do you still want to say anything?"

' Can I say anything when you have put it like that?' Lian Shou thought in her head as she closed her eyes and then pushed herself off the floor. Mo Qiang's interest rates were ridiculously high, it wouldn't be wrong to say that even if she and her three future generations worked hard, it would be hard to say whether or not the Lian family would be able to clear this debt.

Thus, if Mo Qiang was saying that the money from the video was going to shelve the interest. She decided to let it go.

On the other hand, Mo Qiang did not care whether Lian Shou was going to let it go or not. She placed a funny filter on Lian Shou's face and then uploaded the video on the section of Star Net where they could earn money by selling the videos. Even though it was a new page, just her name and title were enough to bring in views.

Within just a few seconds hundred views came on the video and Mo Qiang was no longer worried about not being able to earn money. At the same time, she thought that she should become a blogger as well but then she thought it clearly and decided to put the idea on the shelf for now.

If Madam Wei were to come looking for her after watching one of her videos it would be twice the trouble.

" So is the Caffeitrol ready to use?" She asked Lian Shou after kindly helping her pay a bit of her interest.

Lian Shou looked at the devil in front of her who hadn't even asked her whether or not was she all right and blankly replied, " Yes it is."

Even Lian Shou was surprised after she saw her working ability, she did not think that she could be this fast. Just this morning she sent the entire process to her teacher who praised her for her skills and told her that just for this reason she was willing to hand her an addition ten marks.

But then again when a person's personal safety was in danger they could show great potential without even the slightest bit of confusion.

Lian Shou walked towards the table where she was working just an hour ago and then picked up the unbreakable vial that was sitting on the table before returning to where Mo Qiang was standing. She placed the vial in the hands of Mo Qiang and then said, " This is the thing that you wanted, now can I go to sleep?"

She hadn't been able to sleep for more than twenty-four hours and Lian Shou could already feel her head going woozy.

Mo Qiang looked at Xiao Jiao who nodded her head after checking the content of the vial and only then did she turn to look at Lian Sho and said, " Sure go ahead."

Lian Shou's eyes lit up as if she had been granted amnesty, she ran towards her bedroom without looking at Mo Qiang.

Even Mo Qiang did not pay attention to Lian Shou, she turned to look at the three-headed chicken and fed her a few chicken pellets before praising her, " You have done a good job, I will send you an extra pile of chicken pellets make sure not to tell anyone." She placed her forefinger on her lips as she urged the little one to keep their secret.

The three-headed chicken mimicked Mo Qiang's actions before leaving for the coop.

Once Mo Qiang got what she wanted, she headed out of the laboratory and then went looking for the hive that she had made with Mo Xifeng earlier. It was a hive that was created by the Magma Bees to keep themselves warm but since there were no magma bees to create the hive, Mo Qiang had to help them a little.

She had to go back to the house where she picked up the car and then drove to the chasm where the hive was built.

It took her at least fifteen minutes before she arrived in front of the hive, Mo Qiang stepped on the break and then slid out of the car before she came to stand in front of the hive.

" It looks quite small, do you think it will be fine?" Mo Qiang turned to look at Xiao Jiao. She had seen the old videos that were stored at the Star Net and thus she knew that the Magma Bees were quite big.

Xiao Jiao nodded and then explained, " With the help of the green fingers we can change their appearance to a smaller one. It would be better as they will not be treated as monsters by the residents of this place and we will also have an easy time taking care of them."

Only then did Mo Qiang heave a sigh of relief, she headed towards the hive where she stepped on the stairs and then started climbing up. The hive was like a big large heart with multiple colonies built inside, Mo Qiang had to cross through a bunch of corridors before she came to a stop at the centre of the hive.

" Here it goes," she muttered before placing the frozen cocoons of the Magma Bees on a large solid stone platform and then instilling green energy within each one of them. She also used her green energy to change the appearance of the Magma Bees before applying the Caffeitrol on each cocoon.

Only then did she turn to look at Xiao Jiao and ask, " Now what?"

" Now we will wait till tomorrow."

Bursting jealousyThe next morning when. Mo Qiang woke up, she texted Wang Yuelin to come to her house. Since he was the one who helped her revive the Magma Bees by trusting her, she thought that it was only right for Wang Yuelin to come and watch the revival of the Magma Bees.



After she was done texting, Mo Qiang arched her back and left her bed before picking up the clothes that she was going to wear to the dimension of Srephere. After she was done picking up the clothes from the wardrobe, Mo Qiang freshened up quickly before sitting down at the breakfast table.

Everything was the same as usual from the grilled meat without any seasonings to Maple syrup sprinkled on corn. But there was one thing that was very different, Mo Qiang turned to look at Shao Hui who was taking one glance after another and did not know what to make out of it.

It was fine if he was looking at her but why was he blushing? Every time he looked at her, his cheeks would flush red as if he was embarrassed.

" How can he not be embarrassed? Have you forgotten? Yesterday you nearly took off your clothes in front of him," Xiao Jiao jogged Mo Qiang's memory causing her to clear her throat uncomfortably.

Yesterday she was a bit startled with the wavering favorability points, even if she was no longer in danger with the other two. As Mo Qiang had used her blood, sweat and tears to raise their favourability points, the same could not be said for Xie Jie. Though his favourability points were no longer super negative, they were not positive either.

She raised her head and looked at the glittering blue digits which showed ——

[Favourability points: -256.]

And sighed.

Xie Jie was the only one whose favourability points rose with great difficulty, she even made such a flashy show of making it rain and yet the favourability points only increased by a total of +5 points.

Can anyone believe it?

She showed this mer the one thing that he had never seen before and he was only the smallest bit impressed!

Thus, Mo Qiang was worried that Xie Jie might make life difficult for her in the Mo house which was why she took drastic measures to stop Shao Hui from crying what was more, she was a woman too. Though she was in a dominant position in this world, Mo Qiang had also lived under the suppression of men in her world.

Where she was treated as equal but was not paid as an equal. Men would say that she was not strong enough and couldn't do the same amount of work, so even though she went to the work sites even when she was suffering from period cramps and worked just as much as the men in the same position hers, she received a salary that was not equal.

If that wasn't worse, she had read many articles where women were assaulted by their live-in partners or husbands. It was one of the reasons why she never paid attention to men, now that the position was reversed, she did not want to suppress Shao Hui wrongly by using her strength.

She wanted to treat these mers as her equals because she had once stood in a position similar to theirs.

However, Mo Qiang was still learning and did not think over carefully. After all, she and Shao Hui would be divorcing soon, so she couldn't take responsibility for him —— in the midst of her flustered thoughts she ended up doing something too extreme.

" However it happened yesterday, why is he looking at me like this now? Don't tell me, he is yet to get over it?" Mo Qiang asked worriedly, she thought that if Shao Hui was upset with her actions he might end up making a rash decision again like the time he tried to stab her. Though it did not hurt a lot back then, Mo Qiang would rather not suffer like that again.

This time, however, she had truly wronged Shao Hui. The reason Shao Hui was looking at Mo Qiang was that he ended up doing something really naughty with the material that Yin Fu sent. The only reason he asked Yin Fu for that material was that he wanted to prove to himself that he was not interested in Mo Qiang.

However reality proved him wrong, the second he turned to the videos recorded by Yin Fu, his member didn't show even the slightest bit of objection and stood tall. Even though they were shot at a certain angle, Mo Qiang was completely clothed and not even an ounce of her skin could be seen and yet Shao Hui spent three hours watching those videos and photos.

To make things worse, he dreamed of Mo Qiang. Lying on the floor just like she was in the bathing room earlier with him but this time her clothes were gone and she was calling his name asking him to go faster.

For the first time, Shao Hui felt like a teenager. Even though he was clearly past twenty, he was still behaving like a mer who had a crush on a woman for the first time.

The reason he was looking at Mo Qiang was that he wanted to see what exactly he liked in her but every time he saw her face, he would only think of the image that he dreamed of.

Her long navy hair scattered all over the floor with bright red cheeks and bouncing ——

" I am done," he placed the chopsticks on the table harshly before standing up. His actions startled everyone even Wen Gui who did not scold his sons-in-law for no reason felt a bit annoyed as he said, " If you break the chopsticks, I am not buying another one. Eat with your fingers for all I care!"

Shao Hui rubbed the tip of his nose uncomfortably before sheepishly apologizing to his father-in-law and heading towards the door of the house but as soon as he pushed open the door, he came face to face with Wang Yuelin who was about to ring the doorbell.

Bursting jealousy ——-2----------------



Shao Hui's expression changed as he looked at Wang Yuelin. This was something that Wang Yuelin noticed too but he pretended as if he hadn't seen anything and asked while tucking a strand of his hair behind his ear, " Is Sister Qiang here?"

He knew that Shao Hui and the rest of Mo Qiang's husbands did not treat her seriously. After all, he was not a fool. The second Mo Qiang suggested a deal, he looked into her background wanting to find out whether or not the rumours about her threatening and hitting her husband were true or not.

Instead, Wang Yuelin found out that Mo Qiang was the one who was being bullied by her husbands left and right. She was even stabbed by Shao Hui a few months ago because the two of them got into a quarrel. Though he did not know the content of the quarrel, Wang Yuelin still thought that Shao Hui was a bit too much thus, he decided to teach him a lesson today on account of Mo Qiang reviving the Magma Bees.

Wang Yuelin was once married and he knew the dynamics between a 'want to but don't want to' relationship. Sure Shao Hui might not like Mo Qiang right now but Wang Yuelin could see that he was clearly intrigued by Mo Qiang and sure enough, just as he expected when Shao Hui heard him call Mo Qiang, 'Sister Qiang' so intimately, he ended up glaring at him.

'Sister Qiang?' Shao Hui thought in his head as he looked at Wang Yuelin in an unfriendly manner. What was this mer doing calling another mer's wife so endearingly, was he not afraid of being misunderstood?

" She is——" Not here, was what Shao Hui wanted to say but he was pushed to the side by Wen Gui who was obviously in cahoots with Wang Yuelin. Though he did not want to bully his sons-in-law, who told them to be so harsh on his daughter? They even stabbed her and made sarcastic remarks on her, it was only right that he treated them with special care for some time.

If they were to get what they wanted without any hard work, they would not know how to appreciate it. Wen Gui doted on his daughter the most and thus he wanted to let his stupid sons-in-law know that his daughter was not a second-hand good left on the shelf, if she wanted she could also marry anyone as long as she wanted, it was better for them to learn their mistakes on time and avoid making a mistake.

" Hello, Yuelin~" he sweetly called to the mer standing outside. Not only did Wen Gui invite Wang Yuelin sweetly, he even linked his arm with Wang Yuelin and brought him inside.

This was a treatment that neither Shao Hui nor anyone got, thus for a few minutes no one was able to say anything. They simply looked at Wang Gui who was helping Wang Yuelin on the couch and pursed their lips.

Yin Fu who was taking large bites of his black eel meat chomped on the flesh as if he was eating someone else's meat rather than a black eel even Xie Jie couldn't help but frown when he saw Wang Yuelin.

Shao Hui closed the door with a push of his finger but if he was any more stronger he would have broken the button in half. He did not know why but he suddenly felt a bit too angry, clearly he had yet to divorce Mo Qiang yet his father-in-law was already treating another mer as his son-in-law!

Who would be happy about this!?

" Why didn't you tell me, you were coming?" Wen Gui affectionately asked Wang Yuelin as he offered him a glass of warm water, he wanted to make tea for Wang Yuelin but after drinking maple syrup water with hot water, he found many tea-flavoured solutions not fit for his taste. Thus he did not offer Wang Yuelin those tasteless solutions. Instead, he smiled and sat down before asking with a deliberate hint hidden in his voice, " Are you here to see Qi Qi?"

" Yeah you should have told us," Yin Fu stabbed the chopsticks in a small round-shaped piece of meat and then brought it to his lips before looking at the mer with an unfriendly gaze.

Wang Yuelin knew that Wen Gui was playing along with him, he ignored Yin Fu before replying, " Sister Qiang invited me out today. She wanted to show me something good because of this, I came here. Did I disturb you?"

He had been fighting with a white lotus for a long time and thus, Wang Yuelin knew all the skills of those weak on the outside and poisonous on the inside mers. For a long time, he wanted to play this role and now that he got an opportunity he decided to make use of his acting skills.

Immediately three pairs of eyes turned to look at Mo Qiang who raised a brow and then asked, " What? It's work." Why were they looking at her as if Wang Yuelin was here to announce that he was carrying her child?

She placed the chopsticks on the table and then patted them on Mo Xifeng's shoulder before saying, " Come with me."

Mo Xifeng did not know what her sister wanted to do by asking her to follow but she suddenly felt a lot of pressure as she looked at her three brothers in law of hers. All three of them were looking at her with a jealous glint in their eyes making Mo Xifeng completely speechless.

She sighed and then said, "All right."

But just as she stood up from the chair, Yin Fu also stood up and then looked at Mo Qiang before saying, " Wife, I want to go as well. If it's something fun then I want to see it too! Don't you think I deserve it?"

As he spoke he reminded Mo Qiang of the passionate night that they had shared, how could his wife leave with another mer after touching him?

He clearly wanted Mo Qiang to remember the good times but when Mo Qiang heard him mention that night, she instinctively stiffened thinking that he was telling her that he deserved to be treated with respect as she had disrespected him a few nights ago.

Successful revivalUnder Yin Fu's sweet persuasion ( threat) Mo Qiang had no choice but to agree with him. She smiled at him even though inwardly she was cursing herself for losing her control and doing something irreversible.



Given how he was still hung up on that matter, it didn't look like he was going to let it go so easily, thought Mo Qiang in her head.

Seeing that Yin Fu was given the permission to follow Mo Qiang and Wang Yuelin, Shao Hui did not want to stay behind either. He immediately raised his voice and then said stubbornly, " If that is the case then I want to come as well."

His words caused four pair of eyes to turn and look at him with confusion except Wen Gui and Wang Yuelin who were already aware of why Shao Hui was acting like this. However the two of them went unnoticed by Shao Hui as the latter was busy glaring at Mo Qiang, he arched his brow and then asked, " What are you saying that I cannot follow? Is there something that we cannot see?"

Mo Qiang was speechless as she looked at the mer, what was there to see and not to see? She couldn't understand how the brain of this mer worked. If she was really having an affair with Wang Yuelin would she bring Mo Xifeng with her? Did he think that she and Mo Xifeng were going to play something funny with Wang Yuelin?

' I mean it's fine that he cannot trust me but he can trust Xifeng at least right?' Mo Qiang questioned in her head as she looked at the mer who was eyeing her suspiciously.

" You can come if you want," Mo Qiang did not want to quarrel with Shao Hui for two reasons. First, she was in a hurry to head over to the Srephere dimension. Once she was done, she would hand the Magma bees to Wang Yuelin who will be able to take better care of them than her.

Secondly, she knew that even if she quarrelled with him it would be she who would suffer.

"It's good that you are self-aware," Xiao Jiao remarked causing Mo Qiang's lips to twitch as she ignored the jibe aimed towards her.

If possible she would have loved to deal with Xiao Jiao but right now all she wanted was to hear the sweet ding of the previous mission completion notification and level up. That way she would be able to finish the mission of capturing the Violet Mountain Cows without the slightest bit of problem wouldn't that be amazing?

" You sure know how to dream big," Xiao Jiao commented while resting on top of Mo Qiang's head. She rubbed her face against Mo Qiang's soft hair and then stated with a quiet voice, " I am telling you this before lest you blame me later on. You should keep those points secured, for now, you have no idea when you might need them."

" Do you know something that I don't?" Mo Qiang questioned as she looked at Xiao Jiao who turned her head away at once. Even though she didn't answer, Mo Qiang seemed to have understood that Xiao Jiao was hiding something from her. Her eyes narrowed and she stated sourly, " Shouldn't you be helping me finish my tasks?"

" I am supposed to be guiding you," Xiao Jiao puffed out her cheeks as she corrected Mo Qiang. " And I am doing it really well."

' As if,' Mo Qiang rolled her eyes as she scolded Xiao Jiao in her heart but since the latter could hear her, she immediately reached her small paws forward and tugged at Mo Qiang's hair before snapping a few. " You say that again! Did you just call me hairy baboon? Oh, now you are calling me grizzly bear?"

" Sister Qiang?" While the two of them were quibbling Wang Yuelin turned to look at Mo Qiang and was surprised to find her fighting with a little squirrel. He looked at Mo Qiang who was pulling Xiao Jiao away from her head while the squirrel was holding strands of Mo Qiang's hair in her claws and nibbling on it.

The two of them were so busy with their quarrel that they completely forgot that there was someone else with them. Immediately, the two let go of each other and cleaned themselves up properly before Mo Qiang cleared her throat and spoke in a heavy accent, " Yes?"

The way she spoke sounded like a Middle Eastern butler who had a bad cough causing Mo Qiang to clear her throat again.

Wang Yuelin blinked his eyes before he stifled a laugh and asked, "When will the Magma Bees revive?" Though he wanted to go inside and see it for himself, Wang Yuelin had been researching the Magma Bees for a long time.

He knew that Magma Bees were highly territorial and wouldn't get close to any human unless they were nurtured carefully. As these Magma Bees were just being born, there was no older bee to guide them, it would be troublesome if they were to get violent all of a sudden.

Secondly, he knew that when the cocoons of the Magma Bees break, they released a liquid which was quite similar to molten lava. If they were to get closer to their hatching space, they all might get splattered by that burning hot liquid.

" Hmm," Mo Qiang tapped on her monitor and then looked at the time before smirking as she said, " They will be here any time now."

She had left a camera that could withstand at least hundred fifty degrees Celsius temperature when she came to place the larvae inside the hive, thus she could see what was going on inside the hive. When Mo Qiang noticed Wang Yuelin peeking she ushered him to come close and look at the screen with her.

The two were standing so close that their cheeks often brushed against one another but since neither of them had any feelings for each other they did not notice anything wrong. Instead, it was Yin Fu who grasped Shao Hui's shoulder as his face twisted into that of a malicious spirit, " She is mine," he hissed.

Shao Hui shivered with the cold wind looming over his head but soon his attention was diverted by the golden glow that illuminated the entire surroundings.

" Look at that!"

---------------------

Successful revival ——2Shao Hui pointed to the red sky causing everyone to look up. The usually silent sky was now buzzing with a low hum of wings flapping against the air, bees the size of a small poodle were flying in the sky. Their bodies were glowing with strips of golden and red magma followed by alternative black strips that resembled smooth black rock. Their black eyes had flecks of gold in them and their antennas seemed to be glittering with golden magma.



Once in a while, a spark would ignite causing their antennas to shudder as it released a puff of golden ball.

" It...It's Magma Bees!" Shao Hui shouted in disbelief, even though he knew that Mo Qiang had taken over the responsibility of reviving the Magma Bees, he never believed that she could do it. After all, no matter how good she was there was no way she could bring the creatures who went extinct back right? But now that he was looking at the sky which was covered with the fluttering Magma Bees, Shao Hui suddenly felt like he did not know his wife anymore.

He lowered his head and looked at Mo Qiang whose entire figure was illuminated by the golden glow and for once in his life, he felt his heartbeat escalate. Surprised, Shao Hui raised his hand and placed it on his heart, he did not want to believe that his heart was beating so fast for Mo Qiang but as he placed his heart on his chest, he felt his heart thumping wildly.

Even if he hated to admit it, he was indeed feeling a bit overwhelmed with Mo Qiang looking so dashing.

" She looks quite wonderful right?" Yin Fu asked as he snapped Mo Qiang's pictures from all angles. His face brimming with nothing but pride as if Mo Qiang's achievements were his own. " My wife is indeed the best."

" Yeah..." Shao Hui agreed in a low voice as he looked at Mo Qiang who stood in front of them. He hated to admit it but Mo Qiang was indeed the best.

Wen Gui cupped his mouth as he looked at the flying Magma Bees, his eyes filled with pride and tears of joy. He rushed forward and hugged his daughter without giving anyone a chance to say anything, " Oh my goodness, I knew it. I knew that my daughter was the most talented and skilled woman in this world! Look at this, she did something that those scientists of the Imperial Star couldn't do! My baby!"

As he spoke he kissed Mo Qiang on the forehead three times before spitting on the side, " I hope no one cast an evil eye on you anymore! It must have been some bad juju that you couldn't show your skills till now."

Even Mo Yan felt warm inside, her eyes were filled with tears as she raised her hand and wiped her eyes, Mo Yan had to admit this was something that she never thought she would ever see in this lifetime. Mo Qiang was more trouble than good, it was good enough if she did not make her lower her head any further, how could Mo Yan even expect her to do something that would make her proud?

But now that Mo Yan had seen the Magma Bees with her own eyes she couldn't control her joy.

Once Wen Gui let go of Mo Qiang, it was Mo Yan who hugged her daughter. She heavily patted Mo Qiang on the back causing the latter to cough as Mo Yan gruffly said, " You... You have made your mother proud, Qi Qi. I am so...glad to be your mother."

Mo Qiang blinked her eyes feeling a bit awkward, warm currents surged inside her but she did not know what this feeling was...in her past life, she had never been praised by her parents. If anything it was good enough if they did not scold her when the opportunity arose in front of them.

On the other hand, Mo Xifeng stared at the sky. Her hands clenched tightly.

Looks like their family's situation can really be turned around. In the past, she thought that she had to die for the sake of taking Madam Wei down but with Mo Qiang helping her, she realized that she no longer had to think of the most extreme methods.

She turned to look at Mo Qiang who was being hugged by Mo Yan and didn't feel jealous at all. If anything when she saw the startled expression on Mo Qiang's face like a cat caught in the middle of stealing cream—— she felt sorry for Mo Qiang.

Just what kind of experience did she have for her to not know what it feels like to be hugged by a mother?

Mo Qiang did not know what was going on in Mo Xifeng's head, she cleared her throat and then looked at Mo Yan before pulling away and saying, " This is not all. I have something else to show as well."

She then turned to look at the Magma Bees and took out the special bee whistle that Xiao Jiao gifted her after she finished getting her hands on the Magma Bees larvae.

With the whistle sitting against her lips, Mo Qiang blew it.

The sound of the whistle could not be heard by humans but the Magma Bees could hear it clearly. The second Mo Qiang blew the whistle, the Magma Bees flying in the sky paused and then looked down. Their eyes settled on Mo Qiang whose entire body was surrounded with green energy and without wasting any more time, the Magma Bees rushed down.

Everyone in the Mo family thought that the Magma Bees were suddenly attacking them as they all knew how territorial Magma Bees really were but to their surprise, the Magma Bees did not attack them. Instead, the Queen of the Magma Bees came to a stop in front of Mo Qiang and rubbed her head against Mo Qiang's raised palm like a little pup.

Seeing this everyone's mouth dropped but even then Yin Fu did not stop to snap Mo Qiang's pictures.

" So?" Mo Qiang turned to look at her family and Wang Yuelin. " Who wants to touch them next?"
