290: Chapter 284 The Alien Girl Who Yearned

Hearing this, a spark instantly appeared in Zhang Xinmei's eyes.

It was the same spark Song Yang had seen before when she discussed business projects—full of confidence and a desire to control the situation.

"Doing business? Of course I understand it."

She put down her chopsticks, and her entire aura changed, transforming from a lazy young woman back into the formidable businesswoman who once dominated the market.

"However, investing here is different from Earth. We are strangers in a strange land, without connections or information. Just having money makes it easy for us to be treated as fat sheep and slaughtered."

She pointed out the core issue with pinpoint accuracy.

"Connections and information can both be bought with money."

Song Yang's stance was very clear: "What I need is not short-term profit, but to build our own influence and intelligence network through commercial activities."

"An organization that can provide us with resources, gather information, and even offer armed support when necessary."

This goal made the women present feel its weight.

"I understand."

Zhang Xinmei nodded heavily, her chest heaving with excitement. "As for funding..."

"I will transfer one hundred million star coins to your account first as startup capital," Song Yang calmly stated the figure.

"One hundred million?"

Even though Zhang Xinmei had seen her fair share of storms, she was a little dizzy from being hit by this number.

On Earth, she was indeed a wealthy woman, but her assets converted into star coins probably wouldn't even amount to a fraction of this here.

One hundred million star coins were enough to buy several uninhabited planets.

"What can I do?"

Yang Yueqi watched them discussing heatedly, but she couldn't get a word in, feeling a bit anxious.

"Of course you have a task."

Zhang Xinmei smiled at her, having completely stepped into the role of CEO. "How can a successful company not have a beautiful brand ambassador? Yueqi, your face is our best business card."

Yang Yueqi's face turned red, but then she puffed out her small chest and nodded vigorously.

"Mm! I will definitely do a good job!"

"Bai Jie, you are meticulous, so you will be responsible for the company's internal management and personnel recruitment. We will definitely need to hire people." Zhang Xinmei looked at Bai Jie again.

Bai Jie also agreed, a trace of excitement on her face.

The comfort of idleness was far less fulfilling than having a clear goal.

Liliya, who had been silent all along, just listened quietly. There didn't seem to be many ripples in those heterochromatic eyes, and no one knew what she was thinking.

The meal ended amidst the discussions.

The women were full of drive. After the meal, they immediately gathered in the living room, opened the star net, and began searching for information on registering a company and purchasing property in this city.

Song Yang did not participate; professional matters should be left to professionals.

He had only one task: to become stronger.

Carrying the fatigue from his training, he returned to his room.

Pushing the door open, the lights in the room were very dim. Only the starlight from outside the window and the city's neon lights spilled in through the glass, casting long shadows on the floor.

A slender figure was standing quietly by the window, back turned to him.

Song Yang's footsteps stopped.

The figure turned around and stepped into a slightly brighter area.

It was Liliya.

But it was not the Liliya he was familiar with.

She was wearing a form-fitting black qipao; it was unclear what kind of silk it was made of, but it shimmered in the dim light.

The slit of the qipao was very high, extending all the way to the base of her thighs. As she walked, her straight, slender legs were visible intermittently.

Her long silver hair was coiled up with a simple hairpin, revealing her smooth neck and delicate, elf-like ears.

This attire from the ancient East, worn on this alien girl, not only lacked any sense of incongruity but instead created a breathtaking beauty that transcended races.

"You..."

Song Yang didn't know what to say for a moment.

"The reproductive task you promised me has not yet been completed."

Liliya walked up to him. Her voice was still cold, but it seemed to carry a hint of something indescribable compared to usual. "Today, we must proceed with one."

Song Yang pressed his forehead, feeling a headache coming on.

"Liliya, I just got back, and you've been looking for me several times a day. At least give others a chance, right?" he said helplessly.

Ever since he helped her complete the first "reproductive task," this alien girl seemed to have opened the door to a new world, showing great enthusiasm and persistence for this matter.

She came to find him almost every day to fulfill the "agreement."

"My genes are far superior to theirs."

Liliya's reasoning was always so direct and irrefutable. "Besides, I have already fallen in love with that feeling and don't want to stop."

She was so candid that even Song Yang felt his face heat up.

An alien girl who was ignorant of the world seemed to have awakened some kind of instinct after learning and experiencing humanity's most primitive instinct.

"I'm really, really tired today. The training took a lot out of me."

Song Yang tried to reason with her, attempting to bypass her and walk toward the sofa.

Liliya, however, followed his footsteps, moving lightly and always blocking his path.

"I know."

She nodded. "Our species' records state that after males engage in strenuous activity, performing reproductive acts helps with physical and mental relaxation and energy recovery."

"..."

Song Yang realized that reasoning with her was not going to work.

Liliya suddenly stepped forward, and the distance between them instantly shortened to the point where they were almost pressed together.

A faint, elegant scent that didn't belong to any flower on Earth drifted into Song Yang's nostrils.

"For such a great mission as continuing the species, there is no tomorrow."

Following that, she extended her slender fingers, lightly touching Song Yang's chest, and then slowly slid them downward.
