Chapter 298: Chapter 102: Return to the Blue Star Empire
In the audience’s imagination, a big figure like Ke Xing would either be sitting high up drinking tea or kindly and warmly greeting everyone, never like this, being utterly satisfied just by eating a tea egg.
But the reality is always a little different from what people imagine. Ke Xing is simply a person who is easy to satisfy.
He ate five tea eggs in one go, and feeling a bit full, he stopped. He licked the corner of his mouth contentedly and said to Du Xixi, "This is the tea egg you mentioned, right? It’s delicious, you can make more."
"Then I’ll make more, keep them in the pot, and you can eat them anytime you want." Tea eggs don’t have to be eaten only when they’re hot. Even when cold, the firm egg whites and yolk mixed with the fragrance of tea have their own special taste.
As Du Xixi spoke, she brought out two more tea eggs for Ke Xing, and then warmed all these tea eggs in the pot, not forgetting to think of Ke Lian, who was far away in the Military Department: "Ke Lian should love these too. Later, I’ll ask 2569 to help send some over."
The Military Department’s scrutiny is very strict, and personnel can only enter and leave with iris verification, let alone sending packages. With all the procedures, it’s likely to be a time-consuming project.
By the time the review is over, the tea eggs might have gone bad. Therefore, Du Xixi thought that if she were to send tea eggs, it would be more convenient to send them home. She just didn’t know if Ke Lian would be too busy with work to even return home.
Hmm, it’s better to notify him in advance!
After leaving his wife’s family, the workaholic Ke Lian became: ...My wife really understands me.
After ending the live broadcast, Du Xixi carried a plate of tea eggs to the living room, and the satisfied Ke Xing picked up his two grandchildren again. Seeing them puffing up and wanting to eat the tea eggs, Ke Xing playfully pinched their delicate little noses.
"These two little gluttons!" Ke Xing truly thinks retired life is too blissful. His son and daughter-in-law are happy, his two grandsons are cute and obedient, and there’s always delicious food to satisfy his cravings. No one is more comfortable than him, "Xixi, are we going back soon?"
Du Xixi didn’t keep her new role as a professor at Blue Star University a secret from Ke Xing and Ke Lian, and even told Mo Ying and others, letting those around her understand her situation to prevent her identity change from being too abrupt and unsettling everyone.
The establishment of a Food Department at Blue Star University was already a confirmed fact.
In six months, a new round of the interstellar examination will take place, bringing a large batch of excellent students into various universities for further study. By then, many students will enter Blue Star University, and many will choose the Food Department, currently being promoted.
Du Xixi paused in peeling a tea egg, her shapely eyebrows raised unconsciously. Go back? Now? She hadn’t really considered it.
Chen Yin did mention that the building of the Food Department might need Du Xixi’s help, but it was just to assist in training a few professors from the Cultural Relics Bureau who would join in teaching, so they wouldn’t be overwhelmed when instructing students.
As for the major issues concerning the entire department, it naturally wasn’t for an outsider like Du Xixi to meddle with. Enrollment, class division, course arrangement... Evidently, these were not her strong suits. It would be better for her to wait for the arrangements.
But with everything being arranged, the earliest would be in three or four months.
Du Xixi spent quite a bit of effort promoting food culture on the Primitive Planet, and CD-0329 Star no longer had any reason for her to continue staying there. Returning to the Blue Star Empire at this time might be a good choice.
In the end, food broadcasting relies on both the food and Du Xixi. Going back to their home in the Blue Star Empire can continue just the same. Thinking this, Du Xixi swallowed the bit of egg white already in her mouth, then smiled and said, "Yes, let’s start packing in these next few days and head back early."
Ke Xing was visibly very happy.
CD-0329 Star is no longer the Blue Star it once was. Du Xixi had fond memories in her mind, but Ke Xing did not. He was a native interstellar person from the Blue Star Empire, with his home in the Blue Star Empire.
Perhaps when he first arrived at such a fascinating Primitive Planet, Ke Xing’s interest was intense, but after living there for nearly four months, even the strongest interest would wane.
