Half the time, he deliberately sent Poppy off to distract Cola so he could come spend time alone with her. Sure enough, Cola was currently next door, happily eating popcorn. Seeing Nicole stuffing the vines into bags, Zeph looked surprised. "Wouldn't that ruin them?" Nicole didn't really want to do it either, but the black soil garden was absurdly fertile, and the sweet potato vines had grown far too well. If she handed vines that were healthy directly to Hughie's group, people would definitely get suspicious. Leaving them sealed in bags for a couple days would yellow the leaves slightly.

No one will see me. My stomach growls, a reminder Mama’s sudden breakdown kept me from eating any of the zucchini balls, and I creep back downstairs to the kitchen. As expected, the house is dark and still, so the light when I open the refrigerator is blinding.

After he finished ordering everything that is needed, he ate lunch and entered his space to cultivate for the rest of the day. The next morning, Zhi Yin arrives at his villa and saw that the courier who sends the furniture that he bought yesterday is already outside his villa. He immediately opens the gate and lets them move the pieces of furniture to his underground. After that, He gave them tips and sends them off, and walks towards his underground, and with a wave of his hand, he sends all of the furniture into his space.

he swallowed another spoon of soup. "The hidden luna." The spoon dropped from his hand and he choked on food, coughing severely. Ro quickly brought him water, patting his back. "Eat slowly stupid.
