Hearing the man's explanation, Yan Li's eyes widened, "No, it's not heaven, then where am I now?"

He clutched the quilt tightly with both hands, with confusion and panic in his eyes.

If before, facing men was a feeling of awe towards God, now it is wariness and fear towards strangers.

On the garbage planet, almost no one has good intentions towards him, and the harsh living environment has already built a high wall in his heart.

Seeing his panic, the man felt like teasing him.

"Don't you think it's a little too late to be scared now?"

Yan Li's body trembled and she had a bad feeling.

Did he meet some bad guy?

Could it be that the children who occasionally go missing on the garbage planet are all abducted by these people?

"You, who are you? What do you want to do to me? I'm just a garbage collector. I have no relatives and I don't have anything valuable on me. It's not worth it to arrest me." Yan Li said bravely.

The man sat down casually on the sofa and glanced at him indifferently, "My name is You Che."

Yan Li was frightened by his look and dared not make any sound.

"You really have no value. Saving you is just a matter of convenience. In order to make up for the time loss you caused me, you will stay by my side for the rest of the time to repay your debt."

"...pay off the debt?" Yan Li blinked in confusion, as if she didn't expect things to turn out like this.

Wouldn't it be to sell him off or send him to some evil organization to do bad things?

There is an underground black market on the Garbage Star where any business can be done, and there is also a large arena. It is said that some parents will sell their children to fight with various beasts for star coins.

This is the favorite game of the rich.

He had just suspected that the man in front of him wanted to send him to the underground black market.

Although Garbage Planet sounds dirty and messy, it is actually divided into the upper city area and the lower city area.

The Upper City is where the rich people on Junk Planet live. As for why they don’t immigrate to other planets, it’s mainly because Junk Planet is originally a place of exile.

If you want to escape from here and get a residence permit on another planet, it is impossible unless you have a strong backer.

The downtown area is no different from the slums. Those with better conditions work for the rich to earn money to support their families.

Those who are not well off have to do the hardest and most tiring work, and those who are even poorer can only sell their bodies or pick up garbage.

Yan Li is one of the people at the bottom of society. Even if he wants to find a stable job, no one is willing to provide it to him, so he can only make a living by picking up garbage.

The underground black market was established by outside forces many years ago, and people from both the upper and lower city areas are their customers.

From starships to nutrient solutions, as long as you have money, you can trade on the black market.

"Why, you don't want to?" Seeing that he was slow to answer, You Che's eyes turned a little cold.

If this person doesn't know what's good for him, he will throw him back to the garbage dump now.

"Ah, no, I am willing. Since you saved me, it is my duty to repay you. But I don't know how to repay you? I can't do anything except picking up trash." Yan Li lowered his head in shame as he spoke.

He seemed so useless, without any skills. For the past ten years, it seemed that apart from eating, drinking, defecating and urinating, he had only been picking up trash.

Seeing his dejected look, You Che frowned tightly, "You just need to be obedient. Do whatever I tell you to do. Don't disobey any of my orders. If you can do it, stay. If you can't, get out."

Yan Li quietly raised her head and glanced at him, then asked weakly, "Can I get food?"

Picking up trash may not necessarily fill your stomach, but being this gentleman's follower and having food provided would definitely be the best job in the world.

As if to suit the occasion, his stomach growled twice at the right time.

In the huge room, Yan Li's stomach protested, causing both people present to fall silent.

Yan Li was embarrassed, but as for what You Che was thinking, no one knew.

In the quiet air, there is a sense of awkwardness spreading.

"Food and accommodation are provided." You Che was silent for a while and finally responded.

"Go take a shower and change your clothes first. I'll ask someone to bring some food."

After You Che left the room, Yan Li's red cheeks finally began to return to normal.

So embarrassing.

Before entering the bathroom, he was still complaining about himself in his mind.

……

The washed Yan Li was wearing a white suit. Since he was too thin, the clothes were a little loose for him, but the length was suitable.

Under the light, his cheeks glowed white. He was born with cold white skin and his face was so thin that he was almost unrecognizable. Fortunately, his bone structure was perfect. If he gained some more weight, he would probably be more dazzling than an interstellar star.

He is less than 1.6 meters tall, and although he looks only twelve or thirteen years old, he is actually fifteen years old.

Due to long-term malnutrition, he looked particularly short among his peers who were generally 1.7 to 1.8 meters tall.

Maybe if I get enough nutrition in the future, I can make up for the height.

"Ah, it's so comfortable." Yan Li exclaimed.

This was the most refreshing bath he had ever taken. He felt light and the stench of the garbage dump and slums no longer filled his nose, but a fresh fragrance.

He pinched himself and felt the pain before he realized that this was not a dream.

Standing outside the French window, looking up, you can see the vast starry sky, and looking down, you can see two cities clearly separated.

On one side are tall buildings, and bright neon lights illuminate the entire city.

The other side was lit up with scattered lights, like a quiet dead city.

Only at this moment did Yan Li recognize his current location.

It turned out that he was in the upper city area which he never dared to dream of.

The uptown area that he had admired since he was a child but had never set foot in.

Thinking of this, two tears rolled down from the corners of my eyes.

Only when he stood on the tall building did he realize how insignificant he was before. He was like a fragile ant that could be crushed to death with just one step.

"Knock knock knock." There was a knock on the door, and Yan Li's thoughts were scattered. He wiped away his tears and walked towards the door.

After opening the door, the uniformed waiter saluted politely and then pushed the dining cart into the room.

When the delicious dishes were placed on the table, Yan Li's soul began to tremble.

Natural food!

He only ate it three or five times when his adoptive mother was alive, and after she passed away, he never ate it again.

The money he earned from picking up garbage was only enough for him to buy the lowest quality nutrient solution to fill his stomach.

"Sir, please enjoy your meal."

After the waiter left the room, Yan Li sat at the dining table and smiled like a fool.

The tears in his eyes dripped onto the plate as he laughed.

But he didn't dislike it at all. He picked up the cutlery and started eating voraciously.

good to eat!

too delicious!

He had never eaten such delicious food in his life.

He is so happy, woooooo...

She wiped away tears while eating.

When You Che walked in, he saw him in this horrible state.

He curled the corners of his mouth and wanted to throw the person out of the window.

"Burp." Yan Li raised his head and burped, "Sir You Che, do you want to eat?"

Pah, that was the sound of the piece of meat falling from his chopsticks.

Yan Li's ears turned red and she laughed awkwardly twice.
