Chapter 178 Extra 1: Reunion
Another winter has arrived.
In the study of the Imperial Star Marshal's manor, a blazing fire flickered in the fireplace.
The black-haired Alpha sat behind his desk, wearing a high-quality white shirt, with a large, round belly that was much bigger than it had been three years ago resting on his lap.
"Father, when are Daddy and Brother coming back?"
Ling Suyu looked up from the documents, touched the light brown curly hair on his lap, and said with a smile, "It'll be soon."
Ling Suyu's birthday is coming up soon.
Wen Shumu sent a message a few days ago, saying that he would definitely come back before Ling Suyu's birthday.
Some time ago, Wen Shumu was invited by Adolphus to go to Narentis Star to work with the Master to build a mecha, which is now in its final stages.
Imperial students have a fixed winter break each year, from December to mid-January.
Taking advantage of Cen Zhuyuan's winter vacation, Jian You kidnapped him on a dark and windy night.
Jian You said that Yuan Yuan is already 9 years old, and he could play with a beam gun when Yuan Yuan was that age.
Ling Suyu recalled that last year, Yuanyuan spent a winter vacation with his grandfather. The first thing he did when he came back was to transfer 10000 credits to him and Wen Shumu each using his small terminal. His little face was serious: "Grandpa said that if you love him, you should send him money."
I don't even know how long I've been saving up my allowance, but I transferred it to the two of them.
At the time, he and Wen Shumu did not return the money, but gladly accepted it and transferred even more money back to Yuanyuan in the same way.
"Since it's an expression of love, we should also show it to Yuan Yuan." The flaxen-haired Omega smiled gently.
Thinking of this, Ling Suyu looked at the wedding photo on the desk.
The couple in the photo are dressed in gorgeous formal attire, exchanging rings amidst the open landscape of snow-capped mountains.
"I miss Daddy! I miss Brother!" the little dumpling said in a soft, sweet voice.
Ling Suyu gave a soft "Mmm" and said, "I want to too."

Wen Shumu rushed as fast as he could and finally made it home a week before Ling Suyu's birthday.
His appearance hasn't changed much compared to a few years ago; only his demeanor has become more composed.
However, this composure was mainly reserved for outsiders. Upon seeing Ling Suyu, Wen Shumu's eyes immediately lit up: "Brother!"
She dropped her luggage and threw herself into Ling Suyu's arms.
Ling Suyu smiled and caught Wen Shumu, pulling him tightly into her arms and cuddling him tenderly for a long time.
After finally separating, Wen Shumu asked, "Where's Xiaoxu?"
"She's asleep," Ling Suyu said. "Father just sent a message saying he'll bring Yuanyuan directly to Yumu Star to find us."
Wen Shumu nodded: "I think so too, there's no need to come all the way to the Imperial Star."
Ling Suyu's birthday celebrations in previous years were always low-key, with only family members present, and at most Goddess.
This year is different.
The reason was that Kemo contacted them, hoping to do a guest comeback episode of "Love's Star Journey".
After the show ended, everyone had their own busy schedules, and they only got together once, at Wen Wei and Ye Jingxi's wedding.
Knowing that Ling Suyu's birthday was coming up, Ke Mo asked the two if they could invite other guests to celebrate with Marshal Ling.
Ling Suyu himself had no objections, so Wen Shumu suggested that the live broadcast could be held on Yumu Star, where there would be no outside interference.
Ke Mo was naturally delighted, and after receiving the message from the production team, the guests all made time for the event. Jiang Xun even stayed up several nights in a row to record his new song ahead of schedule, just so he could arrive at Yu Mu Xing in time.
When the news of the return of "Love's Star Journey" was officially announced, the trending topics on major social media platforms of StarNet were instantly flooded with posts.
This phenomenon reminds me of the past; no variety show has ever reached the same level of popularity as "Love's Star Journey" since.
[Who understands? When I watched the show, he was a fresh-faced college student, and now he's a seasoned veteran in the workplace.]
Ahhhhh, I can't wait!
Aside from the Jiang brothers, who are celebrities themselves, everyone else is too low-key; you only find out about them occasionally when you see industry news.
I've practically memorized all of Mumu's Weibo posts. She posts four times a year: on her own birthday, Marshal's birthday, Yuanyuan's birthday, and Xuxu's birthday.
[Will we get to see the Lexus baby this time?!]
We don't even know where they've chosen to meet.
Amidst much anticipation, the "Love's Star Journey" live stream has been relaunched.
On the day the broadcast started, fans immediately tuned in to the live stream, and the number of viewers quickly surpassed one billion.
This number continues to climb.
At nine o'clock in the morning, the screen in the live broadcast room, which had been black for a long time, finally lit up, and the camera was pointed at a white three-story villa.
It's winter on the planet, but the white villa in the picture is surrounded by lush green trees, making the climate seem quite warm.
A pebble path ran in front of the villa, and at the end of it, a small fountain emitted a crisp sound of flowing water.
The camera flew around, showing viewers a panoramic view of the villa, and finally stopped at the front gate.
Soon, the audience found out why the camera was stopped there.
A hovercar slowly drove in from a distance.
As soon as the car came to a stop, Beta, with his orange-brown hair, jumped out eagerly. He was wearing a beach-style short-sleeved shirt and shorts. He first closed his eyes to take a breath of fresh air, then caught the camera and greeted everyone with a smile.
Hi, long time no see!
When Ye Jingxi got out of the car, she saw Wen Wei muttering to himself in front of the camera.
[Ahhhhh, it's Wen Wei and Ye Jingxi!]
I'm stunned. They haven't changed at all.
I think Wen Wei is more lively now than before, so cute!
[He must be in a much better mood than before; after breaking through his bottleneck, he won many more major awards.]
[Plus, she also successfully married Dr. Yeh~]
Their garden wedding was incredibly romantic; it left a deep impression on me. My sister keeps saying she wants her wedding to be like that.
Ye Jingxi, with his usual refined demeanor, smiled gently and led Wen Wei toward the villa: "Let's talk inside, it's a bit sunny outside."
Just as the two entered, another hovercar drove up, as if it had been timed perfectly.
The Jiang brothers got off the bus this time.
Jiang Xun's hair color has changed again, from silver to a dazzling platinum blonde, as if sunlight is dancing through his hair, making him exceptionally handsome.
Jiang Hong still has simple black hair; his hair can't be moved around randomly, it has to be adjusted according to the needs of the role.
【Brother Xun and Hongbao!!!】
I'm still wondering if they'll be able to come back for an encore, given their busy schedule lately.
I don't know about Xun Ge, but Hong Bao took a few days off from the film crew.
After appearing on "Love's Star Journey," neither of them has appeared on any other variety shows; they've both been focusing on their own careers.
It's been so long since I've seen my brothers together!!!
To this day, "Love's Star Journey" remains the only variety show that the Jiang brothers have ever participated in.
Jiang Hong was a little dazed when she saw so many flying cameras, but Jiang Xun was the first to react and casually greeted a camera that was close by.
"It's been so long since I've been on a variety show, I'm still a little nervous." Jiang Hong didn't know where to put her hands and awkwardly tugged at the drawstring of her hoodie.
Jiang Xun smiled slightly and gently patted his shoulder, signaling him to relax.
Guided by the PD, the two entered the villa together.
