On that day, when the Rob first came to the door to deliver the little piglet, Du Xixi heard Mo Ying mention the name "Rob" three times. At that time, she felt suspicious about the origin of Rob, and now that meat was being delivered daily, she felt even more certain.
The owner behind the Rob might be Chen Yin...
Thinking of this, Du Xixi, not noticing the thoughtful looks of Ke Xing and Mo Ying, frowned and asked, "What is the name of the owner of the Rob?"
Du Xixi herself came from Blue Star, and if Chen Yin also came... Du Xixi pursed her lips, feeling inexplicably nervous.
"The owner of the Rob is His Majesty of our Blue Star Empire, His Majesty Chen Yin." Ke Xing’s face slightly darkened, and he said solemnly.
The Ke Family served in the military, and for soldiers, obeying orders is a duty. The Blue Star Empire further required obedience to the emperor’s orders. For them, the emperor was august, solemn, and quite unapproachable.
But now, according to Du Xixi, it seemed that the emperor was like a very good brother to her, so he had his personal guard deliver meat to Du Xixi every day?
"The emperor, huh..." Du Xixi’s expression was ambiguous. After a long while, she sighed, "No wonder, he never knew how to cook, so he always just delivered ingredients to me..."
Du Xixi was very skilled at cooking, while Chen Yin, who was quite close to her, didn’t know how to cook at all. At home, besides instant noodles, he relied on takeout and often went to the Du Family to snag meals.
According to Chen Yin back then, from the moment he met Du Xixi, he had been very good to her simply out of envy for her being born into the Imperial Chef Family. Imperial Chef Family! So many people who could cook! Every day could be filled with delicious foods!
In reality, Du Xixi peeled potatoes, washed plates, and baked tiger skin peppers every day: ...
Mo Ying and Ke Xing, who originally thought Du Xixi would be shocked but only mocked instead: ...
Unaware, busy "huffing and puffing" in the kitchen slaughtering pigs, 2569: ... So tired, I want to eat an Energy Stone! I want a purple Energy Stone!
At night, Du Xixi sat in the courtyard, and next to her, Mo Ying and Ke Xing were enthusiastically grilling skewers. Those were pork and chicken skewers that Du Xixi had personally prepared, while the remaining chicken frames and pork bones were used to make soup, functioning to nourish the fetus.
Every day, 2569 diligently helped Du Xixi with tasks like slaughtering chickens and pigs. Du Xixi happily picked a few purple Energy Stones to reward it. At the moment, it squatted beside Du Xixi’s leg, holding the Energy Stones and flipping them one by one, reluctant to eat them.
The doorbell outside the main gate rang again. This time, Du Xixi and the others didn’t know who was visiting. As the housekeeper robot, 2569 naturally went to open the door proactively, only to find a very familiar mecha.
"Hello, Rob Mecha!" 2569 waved its mechanical hand. Perhaps because Rob visited daily to deliver meat, Rob had become "one of us" in the eyes of 2569’s program system, so it let it in without any hesitation.
"Miss Xi Xi." Rob completely ignored 2569 and walked towards Du Xixi, dressed in black clothes. His human-like face displayed a well-mannered smile: "As per the orders of my master, I’ve come to deliver an invitation to you."
His eyes seemed to see only Du Xixi. When he stood in front of her, he completely disregarded Mo Ying and Ke Xing on both sides, respectfully bending down to present a gold-edged, white invitation to Du Xixi.
Du Xixi reached out to take it without intending to avoid everyone, and opened it directly. It read:
Long time no see, we have not seen each other for many years. The naive young girl back then, Xixi, must now have grown into a fine lady.
I’m sorry, at that time I hid many things from you, but I promise that I sincerely regard you as my sister, Chen Yin’s sister. Everything I have, after calming my wife and children, there will undoubtedly be a portion for you as well.
Please do not doubt, and do not hesitate, follow the Rob and come find me, I’m waiting for your arrival in the Imperial Palace.
Du Xixi’s eyes darkened slightly. She thought, like herself, Chen Yin arrived in this Star Era because something happened on Blue Star. But judging from the faint implications in the invitation, it seemed Chen Yin originally belonged to this Star Era? When he went to Blue Star, it seemed there was a purpose?
Beside her, Mo Ying and Ke Xing exchanged glances after reading the content on the invitation and remained silent. They, as soldiers, had no power to inquire about their superior’s matters. What happened between Chen Yin and Du Xixi, if they wanted to speak about it, Mo Ying and Ke Xing would naturally know, but if they didn’t want to talk, Mo Ying and Ke Xing wouldn’t take the initiative to ask.
