Su Ming responded to Celeste while editing a ssage to reply to Lin Chuyu, accepting her invitation.
“Don’t worry!”
Celeste laughed in response.
…
In the evening,
Su Ming arrived at Lin Chuyu’s dormitory as promised and knocked on the door.
Thump thump!
“Coming!”
A familiar voice responded from inside.
The door quickly opened and Su Ming was slightly taken aback.
Lin Chuyu stood there dressed in a light blue sweater, her waist tied with a floral apron, her white hair tied up.
“What’s this?”
“I’m cooking!”
Lin Chuyu exclaid happily seeing Su Ming.
“You know how to cook?”
“Not really, but I can learn.
I’ve finished cooking already; co on in!”
“Great!”
Su Ming entered and changed into a pair of slippers.
That’s when he noticed several hot dishes on the coffee table in the living room.
There were sweet and sour pork, braised pork, stir-fried greens…
“This looks lavish, is An Ruoxue not here?”
“She’s not, Ruoxue went for training.”
Lin Chuyu untied her apron and walked over with two bottles of red wine from the cupboard.
“Oh, what made you suddenly think of inviting for dinner?”
Su Ming asked while sitting on the sofa.
“Didn’t I owe you a al?
I thought it was a good opportunity to have you over.”
“Are you planning to go sowhere?”
Su Ming asked, sowhat surprised.
Lin Chuyu opened the red wine, poured two glasses, and handed one to Su Ming, smiling as she explained,
“Actually, I’ve decided to join the Seventh Dusk Legion and will serve under General As in the Bright Star Sea Neutral Zone.”
Su Ming fell silent for a few seconds, then said,
“Are you sure?”
“Yes!”
Lin Chuyu gently nodded.
“Alright, I wish you a safe journey and a bright future!”
Su Ming raised his wine glass.
“You too,”
Lin Chuyu replied with a smile.
The two clinked glasses and took a sip of wine.
Right then, the door suddenly made a noise, followed by it opening.
Su Ming and Lin Chuyu turned to look, and saw An Ruoxue walking in.
“Ruoxue, why are you back?
Weren’t you training?”
“I decided to stop training on a whim.
You two are too much, secretly having a feast here, and drinking wine too!”
An Ruoxue remarked teasingly upon seeing the sumptuous spread and two bottles of red wine.
“Not at all, let get you so chopsticks and join us.”
Lin Chuyu stood up and walked to the kitchen to fetch a pair of chopsticks for An Ruoxue.
“Then I won’t be polite, this food looks good.
Su Ming, did you cook this?”
An Ruoxue asked, grabbing a pair of chopsticks.
“No, Chuyu cooked.”
Su Ming picked up so at with his chopsticks and chewed vigorously.
“Chuyu cooked?
How does it taste?”
An Ruoxue looked sowhat puzzled as she asked Su Ming.
“It’s okay.”
Su Ming added another piece of at to his mouth.
Seeing Su Ming enjoying the dishes, which also looked quite appealing, An Ruoxue picked up a piece of at to eat.
However, after only a few chews, she imdiately pulled out a few tissues and spat the food out, scowling as she complained,
“It’s so tough, so salty!
How can you even eat this?
Are you trying to prank ?”
“I think it’s alright, it’s edible at least.
Isn’t it normal for beginners to have issues with saltiness?”
Su Ming replied with a smile.
“Sorry, I guess my cooking skills still need so work.”
Lin Chuyu said sowhat sheepishly.
“No worries, let’s just make do!”
An Ruoxue quickly waved her off.
…
An hour later,
the three of them were drinking, watching the projector TV, and chatting about the future.
“It feels like ti flies.
Before you know it, we’re all second-year students and soon we’ll all be parting ways.”
An Ruoxue said sowhat lancholically.
“It’s still a long way to graduation.
We’ll et again sooner or later.”
Su Ming was quite optimistic.
“Yeah, I think Su Ming is right.
If it’s ant to be, we’ll surely et again.
I look forward to that day.”
Lin Chuyu replied smilingly.
“Nicely said, let’s drink to that!”
An Ruoxue raised her glass and suggested.
“Cheers!”
The three clinked glasses and downed their red wine.
Then, a news alert broke in.
“Latest news, in the Danube Star Sea·Crimson Country star region, the conflict between the Empire’s army and the Neutral Country’s joint forces has intensified, escalating the war situation…”
Su Ming watched this news, frown appeared, and remarked,
“It seems like the situation has escalated.”
“I’ll check the Star Cluster Forum.”
An Ruoxue said solemnly.
“Okay!”
Su Ming also took out his phone and logged into the Star Cluster Forum.
As soon as he logged in, he saw several hot posts.
“Breaking News, Blood-colored Fang Army vanguard commander Grellan is dead!”
“Extra!
Extra!
Blood-colored Fang Army, Level 5 Battleship ‘Blood Shadow’ has fallen!”
“Sky Do City’s troops are continuously advancing, the Empire’s forces suffering heavy losses!”
“Breaking news, the Federation has mobilized all its major capitals, nobles and other forces in various Neutral Countries in the Danube Star Sea, the United Army has been reinforced strongly, and their ship count has already reached over 15000!”
…
Su Ming looked at these explosive posts, his eyelids twitching uncontrollably.
He opened these posts, each one having millions of comnts.
“Aweso!
Keep pushing, and take them down!”
“Ha ha, Farren City Lord is mighty, we should be led by such a great person!”
“Been suppressing it for so long, finally, we can get it back with interest!”
