Her Food Livestream Broke the Galaxy

Chapter 308: Don’t Tell Me? Those Animals Outside Aren’t Animals, They’re—?

At these words, Jiang Qiuqiu gave Little Qing a serious look.

"Miss Jiang, we’ve discovered that your food seems to counteract gene collapse!"

Mo Si had said something similar.

So she just hummed in acknowledgment.

Little Qing thought Miss Jiang would be thrilled by this explosive news. After all, judging by her food donations and her behavior during livestreams, she didn’t seem to be aware that her food had such a special ability.

But now that he had said it, he took a good look at Jiang Qiuqiu’s expression.

’Was she... completely unfazed? As calm as still water?’

’Could it be...’

’Was she hiding her true depths and had known all along?’

For a moment, Little Qing couldn’t figure out what was going on.

Jiang Qiuqiu asked him, "So, someone here is suffering from gene collapse? Are you asking me to donate more food?"

"No, that’s not it." Little Qing shook his head. "Not as a donation. We want to buy some food from you..."

"Buy?"

"Yes." Little Qing looked a bit sheepish saying this, as the rescue center didn’t really have much money in its accounts. "We can’t pay for it all at once, but we can give you an IOU. We’ll pay you back slowly!"

"Oh, that won’t be necessary."

It was a stray animal rescue center, after all. Jiang Qiuqiu was fond of small animals and had a natural soft spot for such places.

Besides, on her previous visits, she had noticed how patient the staff was with the animals. She knew from her own experience that spiritual power collapse was incredibly painful, and she figured gene collapse must be similar. Spirit Nourishing Liquid was also incredibly expensive—a single tube could cost an ordinary family their entire annual income.

It was only natural for them, in their desperation, to seek other solutions.

Besides, they had already apologized.

"A donation is fine."

"I’ve already brought it out. Just consider it a meal on me for everyone."

"Thank you!" Little Qing said earnestly.

Jiang Qiuqiu stood up. "You don’t need to be so formal. You can just call me by my name, Jiang Qiuqiu. I’ve been here a few times, but I haven’t asked for your name yet."

"Hello, Miss Jiang. I—I’m the one temporarily in charge of this rescue center. My name is Little Qing."

"Little Qing?"

"Yes." Little Qing sensed Jiang Qiuqiu’s brief surprise and asked, "Is something wrong?"

"It’s nothing." ’I just suddenly thought of a certain legend.’

With everything out in the open, Little Qing thanked Jiang Qiuqiu for her generosity and asked if she wanted to visit Brother Leopard, the one with gene collapse.

"Actually, what we said wasn’t entirely a lie."

Little Qing added, "And this isn’t just flattery. The very first time you delivered food here, we ate your meal and thought it was absolutely divine. We’ve remembered it ever since."

"We all absolutely love your cooking."

"Then I’m honored." Since she was already here, Jiang Qiuqiu decided she might as well visit the "patient" before she left.

Because his gene collapse had been accelerating uncontrollably, Brother Leopard had recently become completely unable to maintain his human form. Although he was still sentient and could speak, his appearance was now that of a complete leopard.

According to Federation law, they could no longer allow Brother Leopard to move around freely at this stage. They were required to place him under restricted movement.

On the way, Little Qing gave Jiang Qiuqiu a preparatory warning. "Miss Jiang, Brother Leopard’s gene collapse is pretty severe right now. Please don’t be frightened when you see him."

"I won’t be."

Soon, a small room appeared at the end of the hallway.

Little Qing pushed the door open, saying, "Thank you for donating this food. You might have just saved many of us from losing our humanity."
