    [Oh my god, is this Liao Ning’s new boyfriend?]


    [Where’s Colonel Zhou? No, I won’t allow anyone to tear them apart.]


    [The little brother is so handsome. I need to wipe my drool first!]


    [Same! This little brother is good-looking.]


    [Can’t the little brother and Colonel Zhou coexist? I believe Liao Ning can handle it!]


    As soon as Olift appeared in front of the camera, Liao Ning promptly pushed him aside.


    With a stern look, she silently warned him not to expose himself on camera. He was a mermaid she had rescued, and if the public found out, it could lead to another uproar.


    Olift felt a bit embarrassed, but he maintained hisposed expression.


    Liao Ning gave him another stern nce before turning back to the camera.


    Seeing the unusual activity in thements section, she awkwardly smiled.


    “I apologize, there’s a visitor at home. Colonel Zhou and I are doing well. Please don’t worry.”


    As she spoke, she couldn’t help but feel a twinge of guilt. If Zhou Ling were to discover thements fromizens, it could cause her distress.


    In the end, Liao Ning quickly ended the live-stream, denying her fans an opportunity to ask questions.


    Shedled the porridge into a bowl and handed it to Olift, still feeling a bit displeased.


    He lowered his head apologetically. “I’m truly sorry for causing you trouble.”


    “Do you realize that you’ve caused trouble?” Liao Ning sighed, feeling a headacheing on, but she couldnt bring herself to scold him.


    She pushed the bowl of porridge closer to him. “Give it a try. I added some vegetables this time to see if it suits your taste.”


    Olift carefully took the bowl in his hands, not even bothering with a spoon. Observing this, Liao Ning drank her own bowl of porridge.


    Then, she noticed the sparkle in his eyes and the joy radiating from his smile.


    “Your cooking is truly delicious. Can I have another bowl?” he asked, his voice filled with genuine delight.


    Caught off guard by his smile, Liao Ning was momentarily speechless. “O-of course,” she stammered.


    She quickly regained herposure and went todle more porridge into a bowl.


    Liao Ning couldn’t help but marvel inwardly. No wonder people said that mermaids had a bewitching allure. With that smile, anyone would be enchanted.


    As Olift finished his second bowl of porridge, Liao Ning inquired, “Do you feel any different?”


    Once again, Olift nodded and beamed. “I feel happy. This porridge is truly delicious!”


    Receiving a positive response, Liao Ning’s hunch was confirmed. The golden ms indeed had some effect, though she was unsure of the extent.


    Meanwhile, Li Xian was observing the image on the Al. Wasn’t the man who had suddenly appeared behind the live-streamer the escaped mermaid? Standing nearby, Crete was feeling uneasy. If Olift was still alive, it might be him who would meet his demise this time.


    “Let me exin!” Crete spoke, his voice filled with fluster. “I can assure you that his aircraft was destroyed at that time, and no one emerged from it…” “At the cost of your life?” Li Xian’s expression remained impassive as he continued to gaze at the screen on the Al.


    “This… This…” Crete struggled to find a suitable response.


    The moment heid eyes on Olift, his blood ran cold.


    Sighing, Li Xian turned to face Crete. “You have 12 hours to investigate. If you can’t find anything, be prepared to pay for it with your life.”


    Watching Crete leave the office with utmost respect, Li Xian turned his attention back to the “My Child Is The Best” ount. He began to review many of her previous videos, intertwining them with the increasing sales of agricultural products in the Interster Alliance. Gradually, a faint smile formed on the corners of his mouth.


    “Recipes for ancient delicacies? How intriguing,” Li Xian remarked.


    Utilizing the Al, he delved into the recent activities of the Princess of Dawn. As expected, the empire had seized the opportunity to use this newfound princess as a means to win favor with the public. They not only promoted numerous recipes for ancient delicacies but also allocated government support to some of these projects. It was a calcted move to sway public sentiment back in their favor.


    As the leader of the rebel army, Li Xian was well aware of the significance of gaining popr support.


    Using the Al tomunicate with one of his subordinates, he issued an order. “Gather all the avable information on this woman and provide me with aprehensive report within two hours.”


    Gaining the support of the people? He understood the importance of such a strategy..
