Yuan Xi only said this sentence but Lin Suyun has already been convinced that it was indeed a good idea to find someone to cooperate with.
In her mind, an image flashed of the other father of Xiao Yuan Zhe. The Ye Family, if there was a Ye family behind their backs, things would be a lot easier and can be a lot less trouble.
It’s just that… Lin Suyun looked at Yuan Xi. Since he asked for help from the two of them, it’s obvious that he doesn’t want to have anything to do with the Ye family. It’s also true that they both broke up peacefully before, and the child’s custody has already been arranged properly, it would only make it seem that some people are unclear about the boundaries.
Although Yuan Xi is a man, this kind of thing has nothing to do with gender. The difference in status is the most important. Yuan Xi himself is in a weak position. If the Ye family finds it hard to have children, then Yuan Xi really can’t stop them from taking Yuan Zhe. Lin Suyun is a woman who can feel empathy in this aspect, so she can also understand the mood of Yuan Xi who drew a clear relationship between him and the other father of Yuan Zhe.
It is also because of the ability to understand that she can only exclude the thoughts she had.
Beijing Star is one of the important main planets of the Federation. In particular, one of the popular characters in the upcoming presidential election is from Beijing Star which made it even more popular.
If the presidential candidate wins, then the Beijing star would be the emperor’s star of the new federal regime, and its status would also rise.
Lin Suyun looked at Yuan Yucheng. The Yuan family lost a lot in these years. The younger generation did not have any outstanding people. They were eager to enjoy themselves, eat their fill, and not do jobs. Although the old man is a knowledgeable person, he cannot stop his children and grandchildren who do not live up to their expectations. He wanted to send a few people to the army to learn some skills and experience life, but who would have thought that they didn’t even get through the training but they already caused big trouble. The Yuan family patriarch lost his wife and his army.
Those tossings hurt the vitality of the Yuan family even more, and Yuan Yucheng was squeezed out. Yuan Yucheng and his wife were both hard-tempered people and for the sake of the Federation, they worked hard for half their lifetimes yet they still fell to such an end. They thought that they would go far and go out to distract themselves, but who knew that they would run into a hijacking incident?
However, fortunately, they met Yuan Xi and lived a stable life on this barren planet. Looking at the life in front of them, the two of them were satisfied.
It’s just that Yuan Xi discovered such a huge secret again at this moment. Not to mention Yuan Xi who didn’t want to hide it, the education they received from birth did not allow them to ignore this matter, even if they knew that there was a huge danger behind this resource, they would not let this resource star go to waste.
Lin Suyun sighed in her heart- if the Yuan Family’s head were still in good health, or if the members of the Yuan family could be relied on a little bit, then handing over the matter of the Blue Star to the Yuan family will make the declining Yuan family flourish…

It’s a pity that whenever Lin Suyun thinks about those young masters, she looks down on them in her heart. If they learn about this huge wealth, they will definitely do even more outrageous things. They will only cause harm to them and it would simply make the abuse continue.

Yuan Xi’s eyes brightened when he heard that, he was looking for such a person, not because he was careful, but because the reality is like this- if he is naive and doesn’t do any research, he may find someone too powerful and influential. Ten out of ten, the bridge will be demolished as soon as he crosses the river, and he will have no place to cry when the time comes.
But with Yuan Yucheng’s recommendation, he feels much more at ease. Friendship is secondary, the main thing is that his character is reliable, he is not greedy, and will give the other party the greatest benefit. As long as they are decent, they should not turn around and bite him.
After all, there is no lack of stories and warnings about such things happening. If someone has bad intentions, as long as he opens his mouth and mentions that the sea area of Blue Star can be transformed into resources, only half of their personality will be revealed. If the other party is cruel and merciless, he can use force or other methods to threaten him, forcing him to tell the formula, then he has nothing he can do.
He had people to care for, he had a father, a mother, and a son, so he couldn’t take his own life as a joke. Yuan Xi asked Yuan Yucheng about the situation of the Federation and the details of the Xin family.
Speaking of which, the Xin family is also quite interesting. The three generations of the Xin family were ordinary people. Xin Leng has made a name for himself in the army, and his rank has risen straight to admiral. The highest position he ever held was the highest administrative officer and commander of a medium resource star.
This is not only a matter of extraordinary physical strength, but also brains, wits, and courage. It is a pity that Mr. Xin only gave birth to one son, but this only son is also outstanding. He joined the army under the guidance of his father. After working hard and tempering himself, he was promoted to the position of general at the age of nearly fifty.
With both father and son being generals, the reputation of the Xin family is well-known in the Federation. Although compared with those other families, their foundation is slightly weaker, the strength of this emerging family cannot be underestimated.
Speaking of which, Yuan Yucheng’s friendship with the Xin family is not that deep. He once helped Mr. Xin a favor, and then gradually started to walk with him because of his compatible temperament. Afterward, he also had a good relationship with Xin Ruian and became friends over time.
But in Yuan Xi’s matter, friendship is actually secondary, and character is the most important thing. The conditions of the Xin family are the most suitable.
Yuan Xi was also very satisfied after listening to the narration, but he always felt that this surname Xin, he seemed to have heard or seen somewhere, but he didn’t have a deep impression, so he couldn’t remember it right now.
This surname is not considered unique, and it’s quite normal to hear it, Yuan Xi didn’t take it to heart.
Despite having a plan in mind, Yuan Xi didn’t rush to Beijing, and because of the matter of planting seawater, the family’s mood for fun faded, and they all became devoted to the research.
Yuan Xi didn’t hide the formula from Yuan Yucheng. They were very surprised when they learned about it. Who would have thought that it would be so simple? But it’s so simple that without any clues, no one can think of it.
Yuan Yucheng couldn’t help but feel the statement, “The universe is so big, there must be countless substances like the blue sea that can be transformed into usable resources.”
Having said this, Yuan Xi was also a little fascinated. Indeed, there are endless secrets in the vast universe, and discovering such a little bit is enough to shock human beings.
Tens of thousands of years ago, human beings who had not gone to space felt the vastness of the universe and the insignificance of human beings. Today, the Federation continues to expand, but it still has not flown out of the Milky Way. However, because of the exploration of outer space, human beings are more aware of their insignificance and it’s not an exaggeration to say that they are merely a drop in the ocean.
The next day, Yuan Xi went early to book a flight ticket to Beijing Star. This would be a stopover starship. In the middle of the night, it will only stop at the Blue Star for a few minutes. It is just the right timing, he can save some time and solve the matter earlier.
Back home, Lin Suyun packed a big bag for Yuan Xi to take, Yuan Xi was a little dumbfounded at the size. He has a storage space on his body, so he doesn’t need to drag this huge suitcase at all, but the space cannot be exposed, he has to carry a suitcase in his hand.
There was no need to exaggerate so much though…
Yuan Xi planned to go to Beijing Star this time by himself. XiaoYuan Zhe was too young, and he would fly for seven days on the starship alone. The time was too long, and he was afraid that he would feel uncomfortable. The older couple would be responsible for taking care of Qinghe Farm, so he can only travel by himself.
Before leaving, Yuan Xi went to Zhao’s Farm and told Zhao Zhao that he was leaving for Beijing Star. When the boy heard that Yuan Xi was going to Beijing Star, he immediately shouted excitedly, “Brother, Brother Yuan Xi, take me with you, I heard that the majestic Ye family army is stationed in Beijing Star, take me to see it… Please, please, please!”
This kid was already pitiful, but now he is even more pitiful looking as if he couldn’t wait to pack himself into Yuan Xi’s suitcase. This made Yuan Xi wish he hadn’t come to tell him.
Yuan Xi’s trip this time is not for fun, otherwise, he could take Zhao Zhao, but after all, this matter is still a bit risky, and if there is any emergency, he is afraid that he will not be able to take care of the other.
In the end, Zhao Zhao was dragged back by his father with Yuan Xi promised him many benefits, and only then did he calm down. Although Zhao Zhao’s face was full of regret when he thought that Yuan Xi would teach him this and that when he came back, he said with all his strength, “Brother, don’t worry, uncle and aunt’s wellbeing will be handed over to me. I, Zhao Zhao, swear that no one would dare to go wild at Qinghe Farm.”
Yuan Xi patted him on the shoulder with a smile before leaving.
Ever since Xiao Yuan Zhe was born, Yuan Xi hadn’t been separated from him for so long. Looking at his son who was sleeping soundly, he was very reluctant to part with him. He hugged and kissed him again and again, and finally left the house reluctantly.
Although the voyage time was long, the entertainment facilities on the starship were quite complete. Yuan Xi read a few books, played a few games, and arrived at Beijing Star without incident.
This time was different from the last time, he is also a person with status, a permanent resident of Blue Star, this time he came to Beijing Star to apply for a tourist visa, and after getting off the starship, he registered and received a temporary chip.
Yuan Yucheng had already contacted the Xin family in advance, so someone contacted him as soon as he got off the starship. After leaving the port, according to the prompt of the communicator, Yuan Xi found the Xin family who came to pick him up. It was a young man.
The man stretched out his hand and said politely, “Mr. Lin, hello. My name is Zhang Deshen, just call me Xiao Zhang.”
Yuan Xi shook hands with him and replied, “Hello.”
Zhang Deshen invited Yuan Xi to board the aircraft, while they flew all the way to the Xin family’s house, Zhang Deshen politely introduced Beijing Star on the way.
Mr. Lin, who kept his mouth shut, was not called the wrong name nor did they find the wrong person. This was what Yuan Xi told Yuan Yucheng before he left.
Yuan Yucheng contacted the Xin family, only saying that it was his old friend’s child, named Lin Xi, who wanted to visit Xin Ruian and he asked for Ruian to take care of him.
Although in today’s society, identity registration is required, without corresponding law enforcement powers, it is impossible to check a person’s identity information. In the future, society have attached great importance to people’s privacy issues.
Therefore, Yuan Xi said that he was Lin Xi, and as long as he didn’t meet any law enforcement team, he would not be revealed to be using fake information.
When he arrived at the Xin family’s house, Yuan Xi was a little surprised by the house in front of him. It was not so magnificent. The three-story building looked simple but warm, and it felt like home everywhere.
They had just entered the Xin family’s house when they ran into three people.
The one in front was a young man, not tall, with delicate features, who was smiling, but when he saw Yuan Xi, his eyes suddenly widened.
Behind him was a tall young man, similar to the young man, but his expression was much colder, with gold-rimmed glasses hanging on the bridge of his nose, and eyes that were serious and restrained. He was a little surprised when he saw Yuan Xi.
But the person who came out at the end surprised Yuan Xi the most.
He always thought that his son’s beautiful face was unique, but the man in front of him… it made Yuan Xi realize, could it be that his son had a popular face? There was one, now its two, why are they so alike?
At this time, the dumbfounded young man at the front had recovered. He stared at Yuan Xi and shouted, “Sister-in-law! Isn’t this sister-in-law?”
