My carefree life in space

Chapter 90 Meeting Up

"Hasn't Shushu reunited with them yet?" Mo Ze asked, voicing his doubts.

"You noticed? I have mixed feelings right now. My grandmother bears some responsibility for the decline of the An family, and it wouldn't be appropriate for me to go up there and claim kinship right away." Lin Shushu paused here.

Sensing the hesitation in her words, Mo Ze kissed her forehead. "Is there anything else you're considering?"

Lin Shushu didn't hide anything and told him everything she had done to the Lin family these past few days. Finally, she stared into Mo Ze's eyes and asked, "Mo Ze, do you think I went too far with Lin Keke?"

Mo Ze gently pinched her nose. "How could that be? Based on what she did to you when you were young, you can get your revenge however you want now."

What Mo Ze didn't say was that even if Lin Keke hadn't done those things, he would still unconditionally support Shushu's desire to take revenge on the Lin family.

"So what do you want to do next? How can I help you?" Mo Ze asked earnestly.

“Ningya’s eldest son and his wife are coming to J56. I plan to take care of them all then.” Lin Shushu’s words were cold as she looked at the eager Mo Ze. “You don’t need to get involved in this. I can handle it on my own.”

Hearing the refusal, Mo Ze stopped insisting. Shu Shu was a very independent person with her own principles. Since she didn't need his help, he would just watch from the sidelines and make sure Shu Shu wouldn't get hurt.

At that moment, he completely forgot that Lin Shushu was stronger than him, and the person who could hurt her was still nowhere to be found.

With Mo Ze by her side, Lin Shushu stayed in her room for the next two days. The An siblings were also quite sensible; An Xiaojie, who usually liked to stick close to her, stopped bothering her.

On the morning of the third day, the two finally left their room and ran into the An siblings, who were also heading out.

When An Xiaojie first saw Lin Shushu, her eyes lit up with excitement. She was about to run over to find her when she glanced at Mo Ze beside her and silently withdrew her foot.

For some reason, she always felt that Sister Shu's fiancé was a bit scary, not in terms of appearance. In fact, Sister Shu's fiancé was the most handsome man she had ever seen.

What she found terrifying was that he gave off a cold vibe, especially when his deep eyes looked at her, as if they could freeze her. But in reality, his gaze didn't linger on anyone except Sister Shushu.

"Are you going out too? Would you like to come along?" Lin Shushu extended an invitation, and she was sincere, never engaging in formalities.

An Xiaojie's eyes lit up, then she looked at Mo Ze, hesitated, and found it hard to make a decision. She looked at her brother and said, "Let him decide."

An Yuanheng could easily guess what his younger sister was thinking. She hadn't spoken to Sister Shushu for the past two days and had been itching to do so. Now that the opportunity was right in front of her, how could she possibly let it slip by?

"Then we'll have to bother you. We've been a bit bored in the room for a while, and we were just thinking of going out for some fresh air," An Yuanheng readily agreed.

He had been recuperating from his injury these past two days, and now that he was much better, he thought his sister must be bored, so he decided to take her out for a stroll. Since they had run into each other, they could go together and look after each other.

The four of them quickly left the hotel, with the two girls walking in the middle, and Mo Ze and An Yuanheng on either side of them.

This group stands out on the street. All four are good-looking, especially Lin Shushu and Mo Ze. They have an indescribable aloofness that makes people want to get close to them while feeling inferior.

The An siblings are quite different. The boy acts mature beyond his years, but he's still a teenager, creating a striking contrast that draws attention. The girl is charming and adorable, occasionally chatting with the aloof woman beside her, her smile bright and pure.

Lin Shushu and Mo Ze didn't care about the stares from passersby. The aura surrounding them made them look like they were not to be trifled with, and anyone with a sense of propriety would not easily offend them.

For some unknown reason, Lin Shushu chuckled to herself, drawing curious glances from the other three.

"Sister Shu, what are you laughing at?" An Xiaojie couldn't keep anything to herself and asked first. Mo Ze and An Yuanheng also stopped and looked at her.

Lin Shushu looked at An Xiaojie, who was puzzled. The girl in front of her was sweet-looking and naive. Wasn't she the object of the forced abduction and harassment in the clichéd plot of the ancient costume drama in her previous life?

She shared her thoughts, which elicited different expressions from the three of them.

An Xiaojie felt a little embarrassed. Why would Sister Shushu say that? If it were about being targeted by a spoiled brat, with Sister Shushu around, it would never be her turn. Besides, does such a situation even exist? How come she had never heard of it before?

An Yuanheng looked at his younger sister, then at Lin Shushu. In Shushu's description, he was the useless older brother of that weak, pitiful, and helpless little girl. No matter how he resisted, he could not stop his sister's fate, and he might even lose his own life.

Seeing An Yuanheng's constipated expression, Lin Shushu felt a little uncomfortable. Well, she was just speaking off the cuff.

No longer wanting to see the resentful looks in the siblings' eyes, Lin Shushu turned to Mo Ze, as if seeking his support.

Mo Ze smiled helplessly, wondering where Shu Shu had gotten that plot from. In fact, such a thing could never happen in the interstellar world.

“Shushu, women have a very high status nowadays. Anyone who does something against a woman’s will will be punished, let alone doing it in public.”

Lin Shushu knew, of course, that she was just too influenced by the TV dramas of her past life and wanted to vent.

Don't you see, TV dramas have all become formulaic: beautiful women are always harassed when they go out, unrequited love always leads to rain after a breakup, a lifelong misunderstanding leads to the lover marrying someone else, catching someone cheating always results in being hit by a car, and jumping off a cliff always leads to a miraculous encounter...

But no matter how melodramatic it is, it can still capture the audience's heart. And as long as the audience is retained, it's considered a success. As for the content, who cares?

After the interlude, the group continued their stroll, and eventually they came across a place that buys amethyst ore.

Lin Shushu was extremely curious. There should be a unified purchasing center in the mining area, so why were there people buying here? Was the price higher?

The stall was crowded with people, and as soon as the group approached, they heard the stall owner's long-winded introduction.

"Handsome men and beautiful women, don't miss this opportunity! It'll be your last chance..."

Hearing this, Lin Shushu couldn't suppress her laughter again. How come even in interstellar space, the vendors still use the same old tricks?

The stall owner continued, "Don't hesitate any longer, everyone. Although my price isn't as high as the mine's, think about the current situation. The mine's purchase price might drop soon!"

This statement was immediately met with rebuttal.

"Don't talk nonsense. When did the purchase price in the mining area drop?"

"Exactly, I think you're just trying to scam everyone out of their stored ore. We're not that stupid."

Hearing the questioning, the vendor wasn't annoyed. He said mysteriously, "Don't you know about the theft of the Lin family's ore?"

Everyone was confused. What did your low-price purchase of ore have to do with the theft at the Lin family's residence?
