Chapter 377: Chapter 377: The Blockbuster Formula

During the day, everyone was busy with their own work, but at night, they would almost always come home for dinner.

Jiang Qin and Yuan Ling had confirmed their relationship as partners a month ago.

He had been terrified when she went missing during that spacecraft incident.

After she returned, they spent a long time together, and only when he felt he had completely become part of this family did he finally work up the courage to confess his feelings.

Speaking of the confession, Jiang Qin found it quite surprising.

She was surprised that a man of so few words actually understood romance.

That night, on her way back from Tianwen after finishing her work, she encountered many, many robots, each only about the size of a water bottle.

Each one was a different color, with a round head and body, and they all had various expressions.

In its hands, each robot held a single fresh flower and a small note.

Some would fly up and tap on the window of her Flying Car to hand her the items.

Others, with their lights shining, stood waiting for her to pass on the roadside, under eaves, and in various other corners.

And finally, waiting for her at the front door was Yuan Ling, holding a gift box.

He was never one for words, so he haltingly told her his story, explaining his psychological condition.

He then nervously told her:

“Qinqin, I was sick before. I was afraid of females… Of course, that doesn’t include you.

But I still felt it was a potential problem, so I sought active treatment.

It wasn’t until the doctor said I had completely overcome my past psychological barriers that I found the courage to tell you:

I love you!

I love the warmth in your eyes, I love the way your clothes flutter in the wind, I love your singing voice… everything about you captivates my gaze.”

’Yes, his Qinqin truly had that kind of charm.’

Even a male like him, who had long since lost all hope in others, couldn’t look away.

From the very first day they met, he had always found himself secretly watching her.

Yuan Ling didn’t think it was love at first sight.

After all, he had been listening to her songs and secretly following her long before they ever met.

It was more like a sudden flutter of the heart that had been a long time coming.

He had never dared to hope that such a wonderful female could belong to him, because his life was already a complete mess.

So he had never dared to covet this bright moon.

But fate was always inexplicable and indescribable.

Watching her fall into danger time and time again, he began to feel that he could no longer just hide in the background and watch over her in silence.

He wanted to be by her side, to protect her.

’My life is already a mess anyway,’ he thought. ’I have nothing to strive for in the years to come. Using this worthless life to do something for the person I love would be meaningful enough.’

What truly gave him hope was Jiang Qin’s attitude.

Her attitude gave him hope.

His emotions had been a roller coaster, from apprehension to certainty.

But in the end, he didn’t take the opportunity to make their relationship official right away, all because of his psychological condition.

Even though he had never once been averse to Jiang Qin’s presence, he still wanted to be a healthy male.

Only then could he barely convince himself that he was worthy of reaching for that pure, high-hanging moon.

It wasn’t until a few days ago, when he finally passed his psychologist’s tests and was diagnosed as healthy, that he at last found the courage to ask for that official status.

And even more fortunately, the person he loved had smilingly accepted his heart.

Jiang Qin opened the gift box and found a small, delicate ring inside.

It was very plain and unremarkable, but she adored this kind of simple jewelry, so she waited joyfully for him to slip it onto her ring finger.

“This is my latest creation. It’s the most compact Space Button in Interstellar history.

The space inside is huge. I’ve put a rescue spacecraft in it, along with some weapons and food.

I really don’t want to imagine it, but I hope that if a situation like that ever happens again, these things can help you.”

“Also, I’ve recently started developing a universal signal-hacking base station in the shape of an earring.

With it, no matter what planet you go to, as long as there are signal base stations nearby—even encrypted ones—it can automatically decrypt and connect to them.”

It was like carrying a personal hacker with her at all times.

If she were ever unlucky enough to land on an outlaw planet with a signal blockade again, Yuan Ling would be able to pinpoint her location quickly.

Of course, her Light Computer would also be able to connect to that planet’s network immediately.

“But there are still a few problems to solve, so it’ll take a little while longer.”

Designing a powerful little decryption device wasn’t difficult for Yuan Ling.

The hard part was ensuring it could decrypt everything while remaining untraceable by other experts.

After all, the Interstellar world was full of talented people; he had to be extremely cautious.

Jiang Qin once again felt the benefits of having a genius in the family.

Moreover, Yuan Ling wasn’t the jealous type of male. He put Jiang Qin first, so he generously offered to build Mechas for her other partners as well.

That was something that even the rich and powerful couldn’t necessarily buy.

But Yuan Ling could build them.

However, everyone else was responsible for finding the materials.

Long Hao, Lan Yuyan, Shi Lichuan, Yun Xie, and Cang Hong all had their own channels for acquiring rare materials.

They had already gathered enough for two Mechas, and they were slowly collecting the rest.

Long Hao already owned a Mecha, so he didn’t need one.

***

「Once her plans for the second half of the year were set, Jiang Qin entered a busy period.」

First up was casting.

*Rebirth Night* wouldn’t be easy to film. Only actors who could truly understand their roles would be able to bring it to life.

To find the right people, the auditions were once again open to the entire Federation.

As a result, the Main Star once again experienced a massive population surge.

Ever since several Frontline Stars were destroyed, the atmosphere in Central City had been oppressive.

No amount of optimism could change the fact that many people had died, and a large number of Alien Beasts had already escaped those planets.

Because of this, for some time now, news had been trickling in from towns on various planets about Alien Beasts suddenly appearing, hunting Beastmen, and then being eliminated.

Under these circumstances, the appearance of such a lively event was especially precious.

After all, for whatever reason, the Federation’s high command didn’t want its citizens to wallow in grief.

And they certainly didn’t want people to have time to complain that the government had failed to protect them.

So when a grand event capable of stirring so many people’s emotions appeared at this moment, they even stepped in to give it a push.

This led to the entire Interstellar community finding out that Jiang Qin was about to simultaneously shoot two movies and one TV series!

And she needed a huge number of actors!!

Back when she filmed *Strange Tales*, the male and female leads and supporting actors from every segment became famous.

And that’s not even mentioning *My Date with a Vampire*.

How many people started worshiping the actress who played Wang Zhenzhen as a goddess?

And how many females were clamoring to become the patron of the actor who played Yamamoto!

If the main leads hadn’t been Long Hao and Jiang Qin themselves, they probably wouldn’t have escaped the drama of a bidding war over who would get to be their patron either.

So, singing Jiang Qin’s song = becoming a huge star!

Acting in Jiang Qin’s production = also becoming a huge star!

This formula had already spread throughout the entire Federation!
