Time never waits for anyone, and in the blink of an eye, it had been twenty years since the second recruitment.
In these years, the Wanwu Sheng Interstellar Ecological Company had undergone significant changes.
The new model implemented by Lin Huanyan, where she handled the adaptation of creatures to the interstellar environment and other researchers conducted studies, had achieved great success.
The company’s research speed had greatly increased, and one achievement after another led to a shortage of staff, making it impossible to dedicate all resources to production.
Reluctantly, the company had to conduct a third recruitment, increasing the workforce several times, but it was still barely sufficient.
The interstellar citizens were the real beneficiaries, as one new product after another was launched—delicious, beautiful, and fun items.
With each new product launch, Lin Jia Store manages to make it to the trending list, surprising netizens every time. Many online users joke that Lin Jia Store must have bought a property on the trending list, planning to stay there for good.
Not only that, but the official account of Lin Jia Store has gained the highest number of followers in the galaxy, surpassing any organization or individual.
As a result, Wanwu Sheng Company has earned a fortune, with the shareholders taking home quite a bit, and the boss, Lin Huanyan, who holds 40% of the shares, has received the largest payout.
However, Lin Huanyan isn’t concerned about any of that now. The thing she cares about most is the baby in her belly.
Lin Huanyan had only been in the galaxy for less than a year when she awakened her special abilities and started dating her boyfriend. Later, for various reasons, she founded a company, which quickly grew, taking up much of her time. When things were busy, she didn’t even have time for dates with her boyfriend.
Thankfully, Gu Yinchen was understanding. When she was busy, he didn’t disturb her, and when she had some free time, he would take her out to relax.
After several years of development, Lin Huanyan had dismantled enough packages from another world, and with her abilities, common plants and animals were successfully adapted to the galactic environment and included in the laboratory’s project library.
When she no longer encountered any new creatures, Lin Huanyan finally had some free time.
Seizing the opportunity, Gu Yinchen proposed to her, and she agreed. They held a grand wedding attended by high-ranking government officials, research leaders from various industries, and big company bosses, among others.
Of course, their friends also attended the wedding: Zhang Qianqian, Mu Xingye, Mu Xingkai, Huo Zhan, Ji Shutong, and Ji Shutong’s sister, who had suffered from a severe mental illness but was cured by Lin Huanyan, were all there.
The wedding, hailed by the media as the most luxurious and grand wedding in the galaxy, was followed by a honeymoon as Lin Huanyan and Gu Yinchen toured the galaxy’s most beautiful sights, making up for the missed dates due to her busy work.
The following years were sweet and blissful. The only regret was that they didn’t have children.
At first, Lin Huanyan wasn’t bothered, enjoying her life with Gu Yinchen in their world. But after three or four years of marriage with no progress, she started to get anxious.
Not wanting children was one thing, but being unable to have them was another. She felt troubled, unsure whether the problem was with her or with Gu Yinchen.
She even almost suggested they go to the hospital for a checkup, but fortunately, before she could speak, she checked online and almost made a fool of herself.
It was only after researching that she learned the situation in the galaxy was different from Earth. She hadn’t paid attention to this before because none of her friends had married or had children.
In the galaxy, the higher the level of mental power, the harder it is to have children. She didn’t even mention it—she was S-level, and Gu Yinchen was even higher, SSS-level. With both of them, the chances of having a child were even lower.
She looked into it and found that, for couples like theirs, some lucky ones might get pregnant after ten years, while others might never have children in their entire lives. It was all down to luck.
Moreover, they couldn’t intervene artificially. Some had tried in vitro fertilization, but the embryos’ genes were too powerful to be cultivated, and none of them survived.
After reading all this, Lin Huanyan gave up. She thought it was fine—just the two of them were great. If they ever wanted to experience raising a child, they could take care of the babies of Dabao and Xiaobao.
Yes, even Dabao and Xiaobao had become fathers.
Life continued peacefully and happily, and Lin Huanyan’s hobbies hadn’t changed. When she had free time, she liked to browse the Star Network, especially the Lin Jia Store forum, which was a place she often visited.
However, she no longer used the original official account but had created a new one. The reason was simple: the original account had too many followers. If she posted anything, a crowd of people would swarm in and flood the page, greatly reducing her enjoyment of browsing.
So, she handed the account over to a dedicated team and used a different account for herself.
One day, as she lay in Gu Yinchen’s arms, browsing the Star Network, she accidentally clicked on a post with some strange comments.
[Classmate A:] “I don’t know how this big shot cultivated this plant, it’s small like a stone, but it can soothe my mental power. How amazing!”
The post was accompanied by a picture of a small plant in a palm-sized green pot, a round, pink-orange plant.
[Classmate B:] “That’s nothing. Look at this! I just grabbed this from the Star Network, the big shot’s latest research. It can not only soothe my mental power, but also stabilize my mental sea. It looks a little strange though.”
The post was accompanied by a picture of a shelled creature swimming in a water tank with four claws.
Lin Huanyan smiled as she looked at the conversation. Isn’t this just the stone flower and the little turtle? How did they become miraculous plants and strange creatures?
These two items were already well-known, so why were they being described in such naive terms?
Curiosity led Lin Huanyan to keep reading.
After going through the entire post, she finally understood.
It turned out that this was a very old post, and the conversation took place after the second large recruitment at Lin Jia Store when a new product series was launched.
Lin Huanyan still clearly remembers how she cultivated those few succulent plants and hatched those eggs.
The stone flower was the first plant she obtained in the galaxy, so it left a deep impression. It couldn’t compete with watermelon or potatoes, which had the advantage of being able to reproduce quickly.
Lin Huanyan only put the stone flower and these succulents together as a series on the market after successfully cultivating a few of the succulents.
The turtle was one of the first animals she hatched, along with chicks and ducklings. Although it wasn’t a magical fish, it was considered part of the first batch of animals.
At that time, although the creatures were categorized into the project library after being successfully cultivated according to the new system, most of the researchers were newly hired and hadn’t yet familiarized themselves with the company.
Therefore, Lin Huanyan took the lead in researching these creatures with the team.
These were all creatures Lin Huanyan personally cultivated. Later on, other familiar researchers took over the cultivation of new creatures.
This was also something Lin Huanyan mentioned during an interview. Not long after she launched the new lab system, she won a prestigious interstellar researcher award, which brought her significant recognition.
As a result, many media outlets invited her for interviews. Although she wanted to remain low-key, she couldn’t refuse some of the invitations and ended up agreeing.
When the host asked her about her achievements, she briefly mentioned them, not expecting the response to be so overwhelming. Soon, she became widely recognized and many started calling her a big shot.
Lin Huanyan thought that this forum post was likely born out of that situation.
She read through several posts and found them interesting, so she continued exploring.
She even discovered that this post was a rare discussion about how Lin’s family store treated mental power illnesses.
This was quite rare, as Lin Huanyan had originally introduced various zero-pollution creatures to help alleviate mental power illnesses. However, several of the first plants discovered were edible and very delicious, which shifted people’s focus toward food, rather than the treatment of mental power illnesses. As a result, fewer people paid attention to the latter, and since eating these foods could also help treat the illness, people became even less concerned about it.
Because of this, posts purely focused on the treatment effects of Lin’s family store were very few.
One post by a user named Student B mentioned a mental sea consolidation method that researchers had discovered later. Lin Huanyan looked at the date of the post and was surprised to learn that someone had discovered it so early—something they hadn’t realized at the time.
Lin Huanyan continued reading Student B’s posts to see if he had pointed out something the company hadn’t yet noticed.
However, most of his later posts were about the little turtle. He had bought a larger turtle tank for it because its previous space was too small. He transformed the tank into an ecological setup with places for swimming, sunbathing, and eating…
Student B had a good sense of aesthetics, and the ecological tank was beautifully arranged with delicate sand, smooth stones, swaying aquatic plants, small fish swimming in the clear water, and the playful little turtle.
Lin Huanyan felt a sudden itch to do something similar. She had an idea: she wanted to make the museum she was building into an ecological cycle display, rather than just a place to showcase creatures.
Without hesitation, Lin Huanyan jumped up from Gu Yinchen’s arms, ran to the study, and started drafting a proposal, leaving a surprised Gu Yinchen behind.
However, Gu Yinchen was used to her behavior. He knew his wife’s character well. Sometimes, while browsing the star network, she would get excited by something useful and rush to try it out without waiting. At times like this, it was best not to disturb her. He smiled helplessly and returned to watching the news.
Lin Huanyan’s new plan disrupted the previous layout, and she got busy again. With her newfound excitement, she moved into the museum construction site.
This time, even Gu Yinchen, who usually indulged her, was getting upset. He went straight to the museum, planning to bring her back home for a “talk.”
But on the way, he received the shocking news that Lin Huanyan had collapsed. Frightened, Gu Yinchen rushed to the site, his face dark with worry, nearly scaring the staff waiting for him at the dock.
When he arrived, he was overjoyed to hear the news that Lin Huanyan was pregnant.
At that moment, all thoughts of “talking” were forgotten, and he hurried to the hospital.
Lin Huanyan was also thrilled. She had not expected to be so lucky and pregnant after all these years.
She had been in the galaxy for so many years and finally had a family member with the same bloodline as hers—something that Gu Yinchen couldn’t compare with.
The future days would continue, and Lin Huanyan’s life was about to open a new chapter.
