My Husband, a Marshal: Conquering the Stars with My Culinary Arts-Chapter 559 - 189: Marriage
Du Xixi really has never seen a butler robot so eager to work—well, she’s only seen two butler robots till now—she patted 2569, who was still using his mechanical hand to cover the electronic light screen, acting excited, and whispered, "Could you please clear the bowls? Ke Lian and I are about to leave for work."
When both of them have workdays, Du Xixi and Ke Lian have a pretty fixed schedule for waking up and going out, and looking at the time now, it’s indeed time to head out.
Simplifying the preparation of Dragon Claws meant it didn’t take much time, which is why Du Xixi dared to start making them so early.
"Yes! Rest assured and go!" Ke Lian and Du Xixi stood up, and 2569, standing next to Du Xixi, casually adjusted the chair behind her, making it easier for Du Xixi to get up, "Should I package the buns for you to take?"
Du Xixi was momentarily stunned, having forgotten about the steaming buns in the kitchen. She smiled slightly and nodded, "Yes, please do."
then took a bowl in each hand and went to the kitchen at lightning speed, and within less than two minutes, handed the buns, packed in an insulated bag, to Du Xixi.
The insulated bag was the latest invention from the Cultural Relics Bureau, somewhat similar to a thermal container, allowing food inside to maintain its temperature, convenient for carrying without the risk of burns from the food’s high temperatures.
Ke Lian picked up his briefcase, helped grab the large coat Du Xixi had left on the sofa, and waited for Du Xixi to slowly walk to the door with the buns. He then went over to put the coat on her, ensuring she was snugly wrapped up, with just a slightly flushing cute face showing outside, and only then did Ke Lian nod contently.
Ke Lian kissed Du Xixi’s forehead, guiding her with his hand as they walked out together. The couple stopped beside two hovercars, and Ke Lian first helped Du Xixi get into a hovercar, personally fastened her seatbelt, and placed a blanket on her, gently advising, "You get cold easily, be sure not to catch a chill at school, have the mechanical soldiers protect you more, avoid the wind when possible."
Du Xixi liked how Ke Lian took such meticulous care of her but noticing the time was running late, she didn’t want to hold Ke Lian for any more words, just gently patted the hand he placed on her abdomen, saying warmly, "Don’t worry, I won’t let myself get sick. You also hurry to work, don’t be late."
"Alright."
Ke Lian knew his hand was warm at that moment, so he confidently touched Du Xixi’s small face, seeing her looking in good spirits, the dual protection of clothes and a blanket keeping her cozy, allowing him to fully relax as he shut the car door, watching the hovercar depart.
As the rear of the hovercar vanished into the distance, Ke Lian tightened his grip on the briefcase handle, feeling a sudden heaviness in his heart.
He boarded the hovercar, watching the familiar scenery outside the window, with a resolution slowly forming in his heart. The front line insect clan army had surrounded the Blue Star Empire, and the reason for the lack of orders from higher-ups was just due to the most suitable candidate hesitating.
Ke Lian bowed his head, caressing through the briefcase the military documents he prepared for most of the night, his smile slowly turning cold. The most suitable candidate was prepared, the insect clan...
Just wait.
As the hovercar carrying Du Xixi arrived at Blue Star University, the light computer received a message from Wenren Yufa, the head of the Food Department, sent to the five professors of the department.
"Wenren Yu": During the school celebration, our Food Department will hold a meeting, gathering at 1 PM in the second-floor conference room.
Du Xixi lowered her eyes, showing no reaction outwardly, but she already guessed the purpose of this internal Food Department meeting, likely preparations for the campus cultural festival happening in half a month.
The course schedule of the Food Department made it difficult for the five professors to gather for long periods; four could make it, but one would be missing, and when that one arrived, another of the four would have to leave. Hence, a meeting that should have been held the moment the announcement was made is only now taking place, half a month later.
However, Blue Star University’s annual school celebration is due to take place this afternoon, mainly focused on the students, with alumni returning to visit their alma mater and professors unrelated to the newly established Food Department of less than a year, leaving Du Xixi and the five professors with a free afternoon to discuss plans for the campus cultural festival.
