The only SSSS-level fertility constitution in the entire interstellar space

As Xie Linyu finished speaking, Xiao Chen's smile widened instantly, followed by a huge cheer: "Wow!!! Congratulations, Brother Xie! Congratulations, Teacher Lu Yao!!!"

His voice instantly attracted the attention of many people outside the rest area.

The staff members all craned their necks, looking around curiously.

Xie Linyu made no attempt to hide anything. He still had Lu Yao in his arms, openly meeting the curious yet knowing gazes, his face radiating undisguised pride and joy.

Lu Yao's cheeks were flushed red, and she secretly pinched Xie Linyu's waist, whispering, "Can't you be a little more discreet?"

"No, I'm so happy!" Xie Linyu said confidently, chuckling softly in her ear. "I want to tell the whole world that I'm Teacher Lu Yao's woman."

His voice wasn't loud, but it was enough to reach the ears of several nearby staff members, causing a small commotion and suppressed gasps.

Lu Yao glanced at everyone sheepishly, but ultimately said nothing.

Xiao Chen acted quickly, and soon the crew was bustling with activity. When they learned that Xie Linyu and Teacher Lu Yao had treated everyone to the meal, they all offered their blessings.

They both knew that this afternoon tea had made their relationship completely public.

Throughout the entire afternoon, apart from acting, Xie Linyu's smile never faded.

Seeing Xie Linyu's obvious happiness, Lu Yao didn't spoil the mood.

However, when she returned home that evening, she did not forget to mention this to Fu Ciyan.

Upon hearing this, Fu Ciyan was not surprised.

Having spent so much time together, he knew that Lu Yao was very responsible. Since she had agreed to be with Xie Linyu, she couldn't let him follow her in an ambiguous way.

Seeing Fu Ciyan remain silent, Lu Yao reached out and hugged him, tilting her head slightly to look at him: "So, what about you? When you said you wanted to be my long-term partner, were you joking or serious?"

This was the first time Lu Yao had brought up this topic on her own initiative.

Fu Ciyan swallowed hard, looking down at her. "Are you trying to comfort me?"

Lu Yao's little scheme was seen through, and her cheeks flushed: "Hmm, so were you managed to win her over?"

"Yes." Fu Ciyan curled his lips. "Yaoyao, you need to know that once you're paired with me long-term, I will never let go of your hand for the rest of my life. Even if you regret it, you won't be able to get rid of me. You'll be willing to be entangled and bound to me for the rest of your life until death separates us."

Fu Ciyan spoke very seriously, wanting to make Lu Yao realize the seriousness of being matched with him long-term. He didn't want Lu Yao to bring it up out of guilt; what he wanted from the beginning was for Lu Yao to be with him willingly.

Lu Yao was not intimidated. Instead, she took his hand and placed it on her lower abdomen, smiling as she said, "You are the father of the child in my womb. Even if we separate, some things cannot be changed. Fu Ciyan, we are destined to be entangled for a lifetime."

Because of the bond of blood, they are destined never to go back to the way things were before. Even if they eventually separate, the ties of their children will prevent them from truly severing their ties.

Fu Ciyan's eyes widened suddenly; he hadn't expected Lu Yao to think that way.

In the Federation, even when women are pregnant, they never consider the fetus in their womb as the continuation of their own bloodline. Rather, it is a way for women to demonstrate their value and to receive various supreme privileges from the moment they become pregnant.

Men are merely tools for them.

Lu Yao's words struck Fu Ciyan's heart like a hammer blow. He looked into her eyes, where his reflection was mirrored, and her eyes were filled with earnestness for their future.

He lowered his head and pressed his forehead against Lu Yao's: "If you do this, I'll take it seriously, Yao Yao."

"I'm very serious about Fu Ciyan." Lu Yao took the initiative to reach out, stroked the man's cheek, and leaned in to kiss his lips.

The kiss was light, fleeting, yet solemn.

Fu Ciyan's breath hitched for a moment, then he took the initiative and returned her kiss deeply.

After a long silence, he stepped back slightly and replied in a hoarse voice, with just one word: "Okay."

As soon as she finished speaking, Fu Ciyan kissed her again. Lu Yao closed her eyes and responded to him wholeheartedly, her fingertips unconsciously tightening around his shirt collar.

Zhou Jinlu's efficiency was even faster than Lu Yao had expected. The next morning, Lu Yao received a communication from Zhou Jinlu.

On the screen, Zhou Jinlu, dressed in a well-fitting dark gray suit, with his office in the background, got straight to the point: "Ms. Lu Yao, I apologize for disturbing your rest. Of the charity projects we mentioned before, there is now one called 'Starlight Project,' which is about rare disease gene research and relief."

"Initiated jointly by several top medical institutions and charitable foundations, it boasts a high level of credibility and transparency. There will be a charity gala and launch ceremony next week at the Star Hotel. Interested in attending?"

Lu Yao was slightly taken aback, but then realized that Zhou Jinlu was not only informing her, but also providing her with a platform to make more friends.

"President Zhou," Lu Yao said without any affectation, "thank you for arranging the project for me so quickly. I am very willing to attend the 'Starlight Project' charity gala."

"As I said, Miss Lu Yao, you don't need to be so polite. So it's settled then, I'll pick you up next Monday evening. As for the dress..."

"I can prepare it myself. You've already helped me a lot, and I can't let you spend any more money." Lu Yao didn't let him finish speaking.

Zhou Jinlu chuckled lightly: "Alright, I hope I'll have that honor in the future. I won't disturb Miss Lu Yao's rest. See you next Monday."

After ending the call, Lu Yao felt both worried and excited. She was worried because this was something she had never experienced before, and she didn't know if her decision was right or if things would go smoothly as she wished.

Excitement stems from curiosity and anticipation about new things.

Lu Yao did not hide the fact that she was attending the charity gala with Zhou Jinlu from Xie Linyu and Fu Ciyan, and also told them her purpose.

After listening to Lu Yao's account, Fu Ciyan spoke first: "These things are indeed Zhou Jinlu's area of ​​expertise. With him guiding you, there won't be any problems."

Although Xie Linyu was not very willing, he had to admit that Fu Ciyan's evaluation was very fair, and Zhou Jinlu was indeed quite experienced in this regard.

Moreover, if Lu Yao wants to strengthen herself and gain a certain voice and reputation in the Federation, starting with public welfare is indeed a feasible approach.

"If neither of you objects, then it's settled." Lu Yao was actually a little worried that the two of them would have objections after hearing her idea.

"I won't object to what Yaoyao wants to do, and your idea is not wrong. Only when you are strong enough and stand high enough will people be wary of you. But Yaoyao, if you feel tired, you can stop at any time and rely on us."
