Chapter 294: Chapter 100: Successfully Cured, Ke Lian Leaves_3
The only one unhappy, perhaps, is Ke Xing. He could tolerate eating dog food before, but now having his grandkids snatched from him is something he can’t stand. So, when Ke Lian left CD-0329 Star aboard the spaceship, Ke Xing let out a huge sigh of relief.
By this time, Yiyi and Er Er had grown quite a bit. They could stagger several meters with the support of Du Xixi or Ke Xing.
Du Xixi had never raised children before, and she always left them to be cared for by Ke Xing, opting for an entirely "free-range" approach. So, she didn’t really know what was typical for children of this age.
Anyway, the kids were eating well and sleeping soundly, smiling all day long, and Du Xixi didn’t see any sign of problems with them.
As the children grew, the progress in the livestream channel was also going great, as if the culinary teachings from Old Hei and Old Bai had taken a significant leap forward.
Everything was going so well that Du Xixi received a video call from Chen Yin that night.
Du Xixi and Chen Yin were now officially brother and sister, so when they chatted, there was a familiar ease that hadn’t been there before.
Du Xixi, playing with blocks on the bed with her two kids, saw Chen Yin smiling at her in the video call. She caught the hands of her two kids and helped them greet Chen Yin, "Hello, Uncle!"
Yiyi and Er Er obediently smiled, and if you looked closely, you could see what seemed like tiny rice grain-sized teeth growing on their gums.
Chen Yin seemed to be in a really good mood. He played around with the kids for a while before turning his grin towards the beaming Du Xixi and said, "Xixi, I have some good news for you! Can you guess what it is?"
"What is it?" The news that Chen Yin would voluntarily share with Du Xixi was generally never bad, and often made Du Xixi happy. So, when asked to guess now, she truly couldn’t think of anything specific, "I can’t guess."
Du Xixi’s lack of cooperation didn’t bother Chen Yin. He showed an extremely excited smile, then leaned closer to the video call screen, as if to lower the volume of the call, "Blue Star University is going to establish a Food Department!"
"Really!" That was indeed great news. Du Xixi immediately stood up with her two kids, but the mattress was too soft. Unable to maintain her balance, she fell back down with the kids.
Fortunately, the mattress was indeed soft, and as the mother and her children toppled onto it, they felt like they were enveloped in soft cotton, without any sensation of pain.
Seeing this in the video call, Chen Yin was a bit concerned and asked Du Xixi, who was sitting up again, "Xixi, are you okay? If I had known, I wouldn’t have been so eager to tell you."
"I’m fine, I’m fine!" As Du Xixi helped the children, who thought it was play and started giggling, sit up, she also waved towards Chen Yin, "Quick, tell me more about this Food Department thing!"
Blue Star University is the most well-known, top-ranked university in the Blue Star Empire, and is among the best interstellar schools in the All-Star. Each year, countless outstanding candidates are admitted, all of whom become elites in various industries after graduation.
For instance, those nurses in the military hospital could join the hospital right after graduation and serve Du Xixi, the Marshal’s Wife, at close quarters, which shows that their medical skills are not low.
Thus, it also shows how rich in talents the Blue Star Empire is.
Seeing that Du Xixi was okay and merely too excited, Chen Yin breathed a sigh of relief, then following Du Xixi’s cue, started to explain, "The Food Department at Blue Star University was actually proposed by the Cultural Relics Bureau. The bureau has been researching culinary arts, and thanks to our efforts, significant progress has been made. So, the bureau intends to keep up the momentum and directly establish culinary arts as a field of study to be taught to interested students."
"I don’t know the specifics either, but it’s generally divided into Food Appreciation, Food Preparation, and Food Promotion from what I hear." As a Majesty, Chen Yin didn’t have much time to delve into the specifics of a university’s departmental details, and if the culinary arts hadn’t been so closely related to both him and Du Xixi, he might not have even heard the news.
But Du Xixi was already very satisfied with what Chen Yin could tell her, to the extent that she found it somewhat unreal.
Earlier, Du Xixi had mentioned something similar to Ke Lian. She hoped to teach face-to-face, without relying on live broadcasts or holographic simulators.
At that time, Du Xixi’s enthusiasm was doused by Ke Lian’s cold water. She realized it was an idea hard to accomplish.
But now? The Blue Star Empire is indeed establishing a Food Department. This can’t be a rumor, as what rumor could reach Chen Yin, the Majesty? It was undoubtedly something going to happen!
Du Xixi couldn’t help but stroke her sons’ little heads, feeling the soft short hair as a thoughtful smile spread across her face, "If only I could teach there as well..."
