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

In the mirror, the champagne-colored long dress made her skin look even whiter than snow. The off-shoulder design revealed her delicate collarbone, and the high waistline perfectly concealed her slightly protruding belly. On the contrary, the draping texture made her look even more slender.

The most wonderful thing is that the skirt is decorated with tiny sequins that shimmer gently with her movements, as if she were wearing the Milky Way.

"Does it look good?" She turned her head and looked at Xie Linyu.

Xie Linyu didn't speak, he just looked at her quietly.

Those deep blue eyes were now filled with undisguised amazement and tenderness.

Without needing to say more, Lu Yao had already gotten the answer she wanted.

Just then, there was a knock on the door. The next second, the half-open door was pushed open from the outside, and Fu Ciyan, who walked in, paused when he saw this scene.

Xie Linyu put his arm around Lu Yao's waist, looked up at him, and slightly raised his chin: "How is it? The dress I chose!"

"It's beautiful." Fu Ciyan walked over and gently touched Lu Yao's collarbone. "I'll have a necklace worn with it, and I'll have it delivered later."

Xie Linyu frowned slightly upon hearing this. He had been so focused on the dress that he had forgotten about the accessories. That was really inappropriate!

Fu Ciyan acted quickly. After breakfast, a middle-aged man dressed in a tuxedo, who looked like a butler, arrived with three other people.

Upon meeting Lu Yao and Xie Linyu, the man introduced himself respectfully: "Good morning, Miss Lu Yao and Mr. Xie. I am Fu An, the head butler of the Fu family. I have brought the jewelry that the young master has collected over the years for Miss Lu Yao to choose from, on his orders."

As he spoke, he stepped aside, and three attendants filed in behind him.

Each person carried a box nearly a meter high, and after putting it down, the other person would turn around and go out again. This went in and out four or five times until all the things were finally moved in.

The large living room was now filled with boxes of all shapes and sizes, both square and rectangular.

Butler Fu An had the boxes opened one by one.

The first box was opened, and inside were neatly arranged loose stones of various sizes, such as diamonds, pearls, gemstones, and jade, which shone brightly in the sunlight.

The second box was opened, and inside were still various loose stones, but this time they were all placed individually in a velvet lining. Pigeon blood rubies, royal blue sapphires, Colombian emeralds, chrysoberyl cat's-eyes, star rubies, and so on. Each one was large and pure. Even though Lu Yao knew very little about gemstones, she felt that they were priceless just by looking at them.

The third box was opened to reveal a complete set of earrings, necklaces, bracelets, brooches, hair ornaments, and rings—a dazzling array of exquisite and beautiful pieces.

The fourth box...

The fifth box...

When all the boxes were opened, the entire living room had been transformed into a small jewelry museum.

Sunlight streamed in through the floor-to-ceiling windows, dazzling the jewels scattered on the floor!

Xie Linyu scoffed, "Fu Ciyan, have you brought up your entire secret?"

Fu Ciyan replied calmly, "This is only part of it. If Yaoyao doesn't like any of them, we can move more."

Xie Linyu choked.

Lu Yao couldn't help but laugh out loud, turning to look at Fu Ciyan: "There are too many. I'll just pick one at random."

Fu Ciyan walked to her side and put his arm around her waist.

"No rush, take your time choosing until you find one you like. While you're at it, pick out some of these loose stones as well, and have them made to your liking."

As soon as Fu Ciyan finished speaking, Butler Fu An immediately presented a thick book of design drafts and thoughtfully explained, "These are all the most popular design drafts right now. Some of them are private custom drafts by the top designer, Master Lauen, that have never been made public before. If Miss Lu Yao is not satisfied with any of them, we can redesign them."

Lu Yao looked at the thick design drafts that Fu An handed her, and then at the dazzling jewelry in the living room. She was truly flattered. Even if the Queen came, this would be the kind of treatment she would receive.

"Isn't this a bit too much?" Lu Yao said softly, turning to look at Fu Ciyan.

"It's no exaggeration. You'll be attending more and more events in the future, so it's time to start preparing." Fu Ciyan said very naturally, as if it were perfectly reasonable for Lu Yao to accept all of this.

Xie Linyu chimed in from the side, "Yes, it's best to prepare several sets of formal wear. I'll take care of that."

Lu Yao was surprised that the two of them showed such tacit understanding at this moment, and she was both amused and exasperated.

Lu Yao, appreciating their good intentions, did not reject their kindness and gladly accepted their offer.

So Lu Yao spent the whole afternoon selecting jewelry. Perhaps it was a woman's nature to be naturally sensitive to these gemstones. Fu An only had to explain once, and she could almost remember the names of these gemstones, their origins, and some related historical information.

In the evening, Zhou Jinlu came to pick her up as promised.

When Zhou Jinlu saw her in a champagne-colored long dress, with a teardrop-shaped diamond necklace around her neck, her long hair loosely tied up, revealing her smooth forehead and delicate collarbone, he stood at the door and his gaze lingered on her for a long time.

Her light brown eyes flashed with undisguised amazement.

"Miss Lu Yao looks beautiful tonight," he praised sincerely.

Lu Yao smiled and said, "Thank you, President Zhou."

Xie Linyu stood behind her, raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, but said nothing, only reaching out to help her adjust the shawl on her shoulders.

Fu Ciyan walked over from the living room, carrying a small handbag.

Lu Yao reached out and took it: "Don't worry, I'll be back in a bit."

Fu Ciyan reached out and gave her a light hug: "Be careful, contact me anytime if anything happens."

After speaking, Fu Ciyan turned to Zhou Jinlu and said, "President Zhou, please take good care of Yaoyao."

"I will, General Fu, don't worry." Zhou Jinlu said, opening the car door and blocking the car frame, waiting for Lu Yao to get in.

Lu Yao bent down and sat in the car. Zhou Jinlu gently closed the car door and went around to the other side to get in.

Watching the car gradually disappear from sight, Xie Linyu asked, "Guess what Zhou Jinlu will do tonight?"

Fu Ciyan put one hand in his pocket and said, "No matter what he does, it depends on whether Yaoyao is willing."

*

The car drove smoothly into the night, the cabin filled with a faint fragrance.

Lu Yao leaned back in her seat, looking out the car window at the city lights rushing by.

Zhou Jinlu's gaze swept over her, lingering for a moment on the teardrop-shaped diamond around her neck before moving away.

Are you nervous?

Lu Yao shook her head: "It's alright, with President Zhou here, I'm not worried."

Zhou Jinlu chuckled lightly, "You trust me that much?"

"President Zhou is always reliable in his work." Lu Yao turned to look at him, her eyes filled with a sincere smile. "Besides, it was President Zhou who helped me make the connection for the 'Starlight Project,' so naturally I trust you."

Zhou Jinlu swallowed hard, his Adam's apple bobbing slightly. "I hope I won't let Miss Lu Yao down."

As soon as he finished speaking, he opened the storage box in front of him, took out a medicine bottle, poured out two white pills, and put them in his mouth.

Seeing this, Lu Yao couldn't help but worry: "Is President Zhou sick?"
