Chapter 141: Chapter 141: Her Handsome Kidnapper!
Yue Yue searched the entire area for nearly an hour.
She checked every corridor, every room, and every corner she could find. She tried touching the walls, pressing on doors, and even looking for hidden panels. But she found nothing.
It was as if the entire spaceship was built just to keep her inside. No wonder they are so confident to leave her alone.
Her stomach growled loudly.
She stopped in the middle of the corridor and pressed a hand against her belly.
"...I’m hungry," she muttered.
The anger and tension inside her slowly turned into irritation.
Fine. Escaping can wait. If I collapse from hunger, that would be even more stupid.
She sighed and turned around. She already knew where the kitchen was. She had passed it earlier while searching for an exit.
A few minutes later, the smooth door slid open as she approached.
The kitchen looked just like the rest of the ship...clean, bright, and completely white. The counters were spotless, and everything was arranged perfectly.
It didn’t even look like anyone actually cooked here.
She opened one of the cabinets. Inside, she found several neatly arranged boxes.
Each box was labeled in clean, glowing letters. Different colors, different flavors.
"Nutrition Solution: Berry Mix."
"Nutrition Solution: Cream Vanilla."
"Nutrition Solution: Energy Citrus."
Her face immediately scrunched up.
"You’ve got to be kidding me," she muttered. "I’m not drinking this chemical soup unless I’m dying."
She shut the cabinet with a small thud and looked around again.
Then her eyes suddenly brightened.
On the counter, there was a basket filled with brightly colored fruits. Red, orange, and yellow shades mixed together, looking fresh and tempting.
Her mood lifted instantly.
"Now this looks like real food." She grabbed one of the orange fruits and took a big bite.
Crunch.
She closed her eyes, expecting sweet juice to burst in her mouth.
A tangy flavor did spread across her tongue... but the texture felt strange.
Her brows slowly knitted together. It felt like she was chewing on... bark of some old tree.
Her eyes snapped open.
"What kind of fruit is this?" she said, staring at it. "Is this even called a fruit?"
She almost spat it out but forced herself to swallow. Her face twisted in disgust.
"This world is really something," she grumbled. "Can’t they at least keep something natural? Do they have to put chemicals on literally everything? Are they just stupid?"
She set the fruit down and looked at the seeds inside.
A thought suddenly crossed her mind. "If I could find some soil... I could just grow real fruit."
She snorted softly. "As if there would be any soil on a spaceship."
Still, she picked up the seeds and walked around the kitchen, checking corners and storage areas.
The chances were extremely slim.
In this world, real soil was as precious as the fruits grown from it. Only the richest people could afford a little pot of natural earth, and even then, most of their plants still died.
But just as she was about to give up, she noticed something near the corner.
A small potted plant.
She walked closer.
The plant looked half-dead. Its leaves were yellow and drooping, and the stem looked weak.
But that wasn’t what caught her attention. Her eyes fixed on the soil. Her eyes widened.
"This... this is actual soil."
She crouched down and touched it. It wasn’t completely pure, but it wasn’t fully toxic either.
Half-polluted soil.
For most people, it would still be useless.
But for her...
A slow smile spread across her face. "For me, this is more than enough."
She gently dug a small hole in the pot and buried the seeds inside. Then she placed her palm over the soil.
A soft green glow appeared around her hand. Her special energy slowly flowed into the soil.
The dying plant trembled slightly. Its leaves lifted, turning green again. The weak stem straightened.
At the same time, the buried seeds began to sprout.
Tiny shoots pushed through the soil. They grew rapidly, twisting upward.
In just a few moments, a small, healthy plant stood in the pot. Then, small orange fruits formed on its branches.
Yue Yue’s eyes shone.
"Success." She picked one fruit and took a bite.
Crunch.
Her eyes widened. So sweet, tangy, and juicy. Just like a real orange...but the shape was smooth like an apple, without the separated sections.
"Mm... this is real food," she said happily, chewing.
She quickly picked two more fruits and ate them, her mood improving instantly.
While eating, she looked at the plant.
"What should I do with this...?"
If the twins brother saw it, they might suspect something. She frowned, thinking.
"Should I destroy it? Or hide it?"
Before she could decide, she turned around with the fruit still in her mouth.
And immediately bumped into someone’s chest.
Thud.
She froze. A familiar voice spoke above her.
"What are you doing?"
Yue Yue slowly looked up, her cheeks slightly puffed because she was still chewing.
The bronze-skinned man there, looking down at her with calm, sharp eyes.
She blinked, still holding the orange fruit in her hand, her mouth full.
For a moment, neither of them spoke.
Yue Yue slowly lifted her head.
The moment her eyes met his face, she froze.
The man standing in front of her was shockingly handsome. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
He had warm bronze skin and dark hair that fell loosely over his forehead. A few strands brushed against his sharp brows. His eyes were a deep, piercing cyan blue, so intense that it felt like they were drilling straight into her face.
His expression was cold and unreadable.
And his upper robe was gone.
His bare chest was exposed, the firm muscles outlined clearly under the soft white light of the corridor. Strength and masculinity seemed to radiate from his body.
Yue Yue’s throat moved as she swallowed. Her eyes widened slightly. Damn it... where did this hot man come from? Then her brain finally caught up.
Wait.
Hot man... bronze skin... blue eyes...
Her expression stiffened.
Oh no.
He was her kidnapper. The quiet twin. The one in black robe.
