I transformed into a cute girl and lived a carefree life in the apocalypse.

He really can't hide his thoughts after all.

Through the screen, Mu Mu saw the ambition brewing in Yan Ziming's eyes and couldn't help but smile meaningfully, wondering what he was thinking.

"The command center is calling me. Goodbye. Get ready to pamper yourselves these next few days!"

Yan Ziming rolled her eyes and hung up the video call before Mu Mu could leave.

"Ugh... So boring."

Ye Qianxue plopped down on the sofa with a thud, her head resting on Yan Ziming's legs, which were covered in matte black pantyhose. The silky smooth touch and soft thighs made her rub against him every now and then.

Yan Ziming's face flushed slightly. Ye Qianxue's actions made her thighs feel numb and tingly. Her hot breath approached that valley, and she shifted her thighs uncomfortably, crossing her left leg over her right. Slightly squeezing her thighs together like this made her feel a little more at ease.

To everyone's surprise, the little head resting between her legs became even more restless, turning its face downwards, and breathing became even more tingling and unbearable, with a surge of heat flowing through its body.

"Qianxue, you better behave yourself... Ee-ee-!!!"

Yan Ziming suddenly cried out in surprise. Just now, something slippery had slid across her black-stockinged legs, giving her goosebumps all over her body.

"Hehe~~"

Ye Qianxue looked up and saw her older sister's face flushed with embarrassment, and chuckled mischievously.

"You perverted sister!" Yan Ziming pinched Ye Qianxue's earlobe to pull her away from his thigh.

"Big sister..."

No sooner had she been driven away than Ye Qianxue looked pitifully at Yan Ziming, her starry eyes shimmering like a lake of spring water, on the verge of tears, making her look pitiful.

Yan Ziming sighed.

Fine, I'll give it to her...

"Just once, it's bad for your health if you do it more often."

"Ok!"

Yan Ziming lowered himself and pressed his lips to the cherry blossoms of the beauty beneath him. In this three-bedroom, one-living-room house, a pair of delicate twin lilies were slowly blooming...

Chapter Thirty: Leisurely Daily Life (2)

In a highly confidential laboratory at a major scientific research site in Bei'an, Jiang Lan, wearing black-rimmed glasses and a white lab coat, her beautiful figure on full display, handed a glass of water to Zhi Ruo.

"Zhiruo, thank you for your hard work today."

"Thank you, Sister Jiang Lan."

After saying that, Zhiruo took the water and drank it all in one gulp. But the moment she drank it, her face turned purple, her cheeks bulged to the limit, and she almost vomited.

However, she forced herself to swallow it and asked with a pained expression, "Sister Jiang Lan, what kind of drink is this?"

"It's a special supplement I made to replenish my body's nutrients, although it doesn't taste very good."

Jiang Lan picked up a handkerchief and wiped her mouth, saying helplessly, "I was going to remind you, but I didn't expect you to finish it in one gulp."

Zhi Ruo rolled her eyes: "So it's still my fault after all!"

Jiang Lan covered her mouth and giggled, "Yes, you can only blame yourself."

After laughing for a while, Jiang Lan straightened her expression and said, "You've been here for a few months now. Is there anything you're not used to?"

"Hmm... there's nothing I'm not used to, it's just..."

Zhi Ruo's face suddenly flushed a strange red: "It's just that I often can't see the person I like..."

Women are quite gossipy about this kind of thing, and Jiang Lan was no exception. Her eyes lit up, and she grabbed Zhi Ruo's shoulders, asking:

"What kind of person is he/she? What does he/she do for a living? How old is he/she? And also..."

Jiang Lan bombarded Zhi Ruo with questions, leaving her completely bewildered. After thinking things through, she hesitated, unsure whether she should answer.

Since arriving here, Jiang Lan has treated me exceptionally well, like a caring older sister who patiently guides me through everything. Now, their relationship is as close as sisters.

But Zhiruo didn't know whether she should talk about such a private matter.

If her partner were a man, it would be fine, as it aligns with mainstream values, and there would be no problem saying it. The key issue is that Youlan is a girl!

Won't Jiang Lan look down on me? Will she think I'm a strange person and distance herself from me?

"You idiot." Jiang Lan gently tapped Zhi Ruo on the head. "If you don't want to talk about it, just say so! I won't blame you!"

Zhi Ruo smiled sweetly, deciding it would be better to say it later, at least to ask You Lan's opinion first.

"...Is Sister Jiang Lan still single?"

"Oh yeah, what's wrong? You're starting to gossip about me now?"

"No... I was just wondering why someone as beautiful and well-educated as Jiang Lan doesn't have any suitors..."

Zhiruo said shyly.

"I keep my identity extremely confidential in this job. I don't even have many people who know me, so what kind of suitors would I have?"

Jiang Lan shrugged, as if she were talking about something that had nothing to do with her.

"I'm sorry... I asked a question I shouldn't have."

Realizing that she had perhaps touched a nerve with Jiang Lan, Zhi Ruo quickly apologized.

Come to think of it, as a researcher who keeps her identity extremely secret, very few people know of her existence, so how could she possibly be in a relationship?

Jiang Lan has worked here for so many years, and her mastery of Chinese technology is extremely high. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call her a national treasure.

Anyone who wants to get close to her must undergo countless checks, including having their family tree and ancestors for eighteen generations thoroughly investigated to ensure they are not foreign spies or assassins trying to kill Jiang Lan, before they can be reluctantly allowed to pass.

That's not all. When he was in contact with Jiang Lan, he had to be supervised by special personnel, and his future life would be under serious scrutiny by the authorities.

In this situation, no matter how beautiful she is, who would be willing to be Jiang Lan's boyfriend?

Even if they did, they were scared away by layers upon layers of questioning and interrogation!

"Ah! It's okay, you don't need to apologize. I'm quite free in this regard, and besides, I have someone I like..."

Jiang Lan comforted her, and as she spoke, her own face turned red.

That lovely girl she longed for day and night, she joined the pioneers' ranks. I wonder if she's having a hard time? Has she been injured? Does she often think of me?

Questions like these challenged her psychological defenses, causing her emotions to become somewhat erratic, and she blushed terribly.

To be honest, with so many accolades surrounding that person, Jiang Lan felt unworthy of her and couldn't help but feel a little inferior.

Zhi Ruo stared blankly at Jiang Lan, whose temperament had changed rapidly, speechless with astonishment.

Is this delicate, beautiful woman who makes you want to bully her really the decisive and efficient section chief she knows—Jiang Lan?!

The word that best describes Jiang Lan at this moment comes to mind: seductive.

For some reason, Zhi Ruo blurted out, "Would you mind giving me a hint?"

As soon as she said it, she cursed herself in her heart. She had just refused to share, so why did she turn around and ask others?

However, Jiang Lan clearly didn't care about that kind of person, and said with a blushing face, "She went to participate in the pioneering operation!"

La la... La la... La...

Zhiruo's lips twitched slightly.

—Jiang Lan, your persona has collapsed! Are you really a seductive bottom?!

"What a coincidence... The person I like is also a pioneer."

"Oh my, could it be that we like the same person?" Jiang Lan joked, but in her heart she thought it was impossible; the probability of the sky falling down was much higher than that.

"Hahaha...maybe it really is~" Zhiruo said with a smile, her thoughts the same as Jiang Lan's.

"Sister Jiang Lan, is there anything else you can reveal? Maybe I can play matchmaker for you two!"

Zhiruo said with a smile.

If Yan Ziming knew what Zhiruo was saying, he would definitely say, "Shaojiu, what lies before you is hell!"

It's a pity that Yan Ziming isn't here now, and Zhiruo still doesn't know what path she has chosen...

"Really?! Hmm... She's very famous among the pioneers, practically a household name!" Jiang Lan blushed, her shy and coy manner befitting a young girl.

A household name?

Just from this one word, you can tell it's not a secluded orchid.

Although Youlan possessed the strength of a seventh-tier ability user, she was still only a "somewhat famous" figure in the vast pioneering team, if not a drop in the ocean.

However, when it comes to household names, some of them are her acquaintances—Yan Ziming, Mu Mu, and Ye Qianxue, all of whom are very famous.

As for the men, it should be Li Haoyi, Zhou Huaping, or Murong Haiyi; in any case, these three are the leaders.

Two of these three are eighth-tier experts, while Murong Haiyi is slightly weaker, at the peak of the seventh tier. Moreover, he is only twenty-four years old, an absolute genius, and will surely have a place among the ninth-tier experts in the future.

He had other things to do and couldn't participate in the Civilization Cup, otherwise his fame would have risen even higher.

Just then, a third voice came from outside: "Lanlan, long time no see... Ah! Zhiruo, you're here too!"

The moment she heard the sound, Jiang Lan's eyes visibly lit up with ecstasy. She strode quickly toward the source of the sound with her long, snow-white legs and grabbed her in a hug!

"Zi Mo..."

Jiang Lan was dumbfounded. What was going on this time?
