148 I’ll Let You Live to 300 Years Old
There were too few functions in the app, and there was not much content. After adding He Xing as a friend, Du Yue took a look at the online mall. The variety of items in the mall was quite complete. Du Yue had only gone through two pages when she saw the wild boar meat on sale. The wild boar meat was sold by catties, and the price was different depending on the location.
The selling price was more than five times higher than the price they sold the boar to the base. Du Yue tutted. ‘Buying is never as good as selling.’
However, it did not matter to her how much the base sold the meat for. She would not spend money on wild boar anyway. After going through the mall from top to bottom, Du Yue did not see anything that aroused her desire to buy it.
After all, she had much more things in her s.p.a.ce than what the mall had. Du Yue closed her tablet and turned around to see that He Xing had added more than a hundred items to his shopping cart in such a short time.
“What are you buying?” Du Yue asked out of curiosity.
He Xing opened his shopping cart and showed it to Du Yue. “I’d like to buy some meat, grain oil, condiments, and canned food. The rest are just some snacks.”
Du Yue looked at the items in the shopping cart and was amazed.
She felt that the items in the mall were ordinary, but He Xing was very excited when it came to shopping. Although he had a lot of contribution points, he could not squander them like this. There was really no need for that. There were so many resources in Du Yue’s s.p.a.ce. Since the two of them were together, it was only right for them to share the resources. Du Yue looked at He Xing and said in a serious tone, “I’ve told you before, I’m quite rich in a certain aspect.”
He Xing was amused by her serious expression. “I know you have a lot of supplies, but sooner or later, you’ll use them all up. We have to make plans early and buy more things.”
Du Yue could tell from He Xing’s words that he did not have an accurate grasp of the number of supplies in her inters.p.a.ce.
Du Yue felt that she could no longer be modest with him. “The resources in my inters.p.a.ce are enough for ten adults to eat and drink for a lifetime. You should know that the average lifespan of us Earthlings is only 70 to 80 years. When I’m about to die, we’ll find a bigger place and take out all the supplies in my s.p.a.ce. I’ll save them for you so you can use and eat them.”
As soon as Du Yue finished speaking, she saw He Xing looking at her with a complicated and serious expression. Du Yue did not quite understand why he was looking at her like that. She blinked and asked in confusion, “Why are you suddenly so serious? Did I say something wrong?”
He Xing tapped on the b.u.t.ton to pay and bought everything in the shopping cart. Then, he turned to look at Du Yue. “Even if you’re destined to leave one day, I’ll make sure you leave after me.” There was an extremely sincere light in his eyes as he made a promise that was very touching.
Du Yue admitted that she was very touched. “But we humans don’t have long lifespans. The oldest person on earth was only about a hundred years old.” Moreover, they were in a different environment now, and it was unknown if she could even live to be 80 years old.
“There’s a medicine that can increase one’s lifespan in the galaxy. After I transport all this food and drinks back to the galaxy, I’ll give you that medicine. After using it, you can live to at least 300 years old.”
He Xing’s words were completely beyond Du Yue’s expectations. Du Yue was very touched. After all, she had died a tragic death in her previous life. After being reborn in this life, her only wish was to live well. The longer she lived, the better. Now, He Xing was telling her that he would let her live to be 300 years old. It could be said that he was exceeding her original goal.
Even though she knew that life was full of surprises, she was still touched by He Xing’s sincerity. Du Yue’s eyes sparkled as she looked at He Xing. “Thank you, He Xing.”
He Xing smiled and reached out to stroke Du Yue’s hair. “You don’t have to be so polite with me. The two of us have to walk to the end together. Otherwise, I won’t be happy no matter how much delicious food you give me if you leave me behind.”
Du Yue responded, “Mhm.” She had only been touched for less than three seconds when this man changed the topic to food again. Du Yue decided not to stoop to the level of a person who had not even tasted iced tea before the age of 30. She only asked him, “How many resources do you need to exchange for the medicine you mentioned?”
He Xing blinked. “I’ve bought enough.”
Du Yue could not help but be surprised. “You can exchange such a precious medicine for such a small amount of stuff?”
He Xing looked at Du Yue, amused. “The rarer something is, the more precious it is. Do you think that medicine is precious? The people in the galaxy rarely have the opportunity to eat proper food as you guys do on Earth. They usually rely on various nutrients to maintain their lives, so they think that food is precious. I’m sure many interstellar people will be willing to trade the medicine with me for so many delicacies.”
