The Strong Female Lead Versus The Most Miserable Male Lead

Shutong Nian didn't care about Fu Yunhe's feelings at all.

After having her fill, she shouldered her iron shovel and continued to clear the wilderness.

Curious, Fu Yunhe followed in his own purchased vehicle.

The vehicle was small, with a tiny seat that Fu Yunhe sat on. It had an energy shield on top, capable of shielding toxins for a short period.

Beneath were two mechanical legs, operating like those of a praying mantis, dodging obstacles to ensure a smooth ride for the passenger.

When the pair arrived at the intended land to be reclaimed, Fu Yunhe saw Shutong Nian first pulling weeds with her bare hands, and after tidying a patch, she took up her little iron shovel to turn the soil.

After about three hours, Shutong Nian finally cleared a piece of land five meters square, casually wiping the sweat from her forehead, breathing heavily with fatigue.

Fu Yunhe drove up close and steadied the vehicle beside Shutong Nian.

"Shutong Nian, why are you doing this yourself?"

Wiping her sweat, Shutong Nian turned her head, looking disdainfully at Fu Yunhe and said, "Do you think you can do it?"

"Of course I can't, but you could buy a robot. They can work twenty-four hours without stopping."

Twenty-four hours? Without stopping?

Shutong Nian stared intently at Fu Yunhe and asked, "How much?"

Thinking of Shutong Nian's love for money and her eagerness to earn, he responded, "The cheap ones are a few thousand Star Coins, and you can even buy a second-hand one for a few hundred Star Coins."

Hearing the prices, Shutong Nian found them really affordable, but her poverty was the problem!

She did think about selling corn to make money, but she hadn't bought a Black Hole Transmitter and couldn't ship the goods.

She hesitated for a moment and then told Fu Yunhe, "Pick a second-hand one for me. Deduct the money from your dinner."

Fu Yunhe didn't refuse and, in front of Shutong Nian, accessed the Star Network, found a forum, and searched for a robot capable of working.

Eventually, he bought a second-hand, or rather, multi-hand robot for three hundred and seventy Star Coins.

"All set, it will be delivered shortly."

"Thanks, Xiao He, I didn't realize you were actually useful. You go on ahead and wait."

After speaking, Shutong Nian turned and continued to clear the land.

Taking one step is better than none, just like cultivation, you regress if you do not advance.

Fu Yunhe was now able to completely ignore Shutong Nian's words as he drove the vehicle toward the small wooden house.

After Fu Yunhe had left, Shutong Nian took out a potato from the system and a small knife. Following the planting instructions, she sliced off the eyes of the potato, dipped them in a powder given by the system, and began planting.

The newly cleared plot was quickly planted, and Shutong Nian didn't do more than necessary. Instead, she went to the cornfield to prepare to bring back some corn.

For now, it was their staple food.

When Shutong Nian returned with a bundle of cornstalks, she saw Fu Yunhe fixing a metallic skeleton.

"Is this the robot you bought?"

"Uh..." Fu Yunhe felt a bit embarrassed; he had been duped.

This wasn't a working robot at all. Who knew where the seller had dug up this ancient relic?

It was a model that had been phased out decades ago.

Shutong Nian didn't understand these things very well, she looked at the dirt-gold skeleton in front of her.

Why would a robot's body contain so many toxins?

"Let's keep it for now," said Shutong Nian with some interest, deciding to keep it.

She began to start a fire and continued cooking corn.

Seeing that Shutong Nian didn't mind, Fu Yunhe decided to leave it be.

In the evening, the two of them still had boiled corn for dinner. Afterward, Shutong Nian scraped out two black corn cobs from under the pot. Holding one, she asked Fu Yunhe,

"Want one?"

"How much?"
