Chapter 86 Because of Love
It was already late at night, but the StarNet was bustling with activity.
Every forum is discussing the two Weibo posts made by the Marshal and his wife.
I checked it several times to make sure I hadn't gone to the wrong blog; it was indeed posted by Marshal Ling.
【+111111, I've checked that many times too.】
[Ahhhhh, Mumu also reposted it!!!]
[They're calling me "baby" all the time, it's so sweet it's almost sickening.]
[Showing off your love late at night, huh!]
[Seeing this makes me want to fall in love too, so I'll take this opportunity to find a spouse.]
It seems Marshal Ling set off for the border planet again today. They've separated, haven't they?
[Sigh, the Marshal has only rested for a few days, and now he has to go fight alien beasts again.]
It was really tough.
[Has Mumu already missed the Marshal after only half a day apart?]
[I think the Marshal is also missing Mumu, otherwise he wouldn't have suddenly posted on Weibo.]
That's how it is. Couples in love post things on social media primarily for their partners; followers are just a side effect.
Allison, who also surfs the internet, laughed it off when he saw these comments.
As someone who has a deep understanding of the progress of their relationship, he said this is normal.
Because no one in love can resist showing affection in public, unless they don't love each other enough!
Not to mention that his wife was seeing him off and giving him gifts, he didn't believe the marshal could tolerate it!
Wen Shumu neither knew nor cared how the StarNet viewed them; his mind was completely focused on the handsome Alpha projected in front of him.
Wen Shumu's eyes were bright as she smiled and said, "Why did you suddenly post on Weibo, brother?"
Ling Suyu held the clay figure up and pressed it against his cheek: "Because I like it, I want everyone to know."
He wasn't good at sweet talk; he could only express his inner thoughts in straightforward language, wanting Xiaomu to understand his feelings.
Wen Shumu paused slightly, his light brown eyes curving upwards. In the warm light of the bedroom, they resembled fine jade, gentle and refined, so beautiful that one couldn't look away.
Ling Suyu couldn't look away at all. He stared straight at the Omega in the 3D projection, a sense of emptiness rising in his heart.
This is the first time they've been separated for so long since they reunited.
Online video calls did alleviate his longing to some extent, but only a little.
It was past midnight, and neither of them wanted to hang up first.
Wen Shumu's voice grew softer and softer, his eyelids drooped, and he drifted off to sleep.
Ling Suyu gazed quietly at the Omega's sleeping face, his eyes filled with tenderness.

Over the next few days, Wen Shumu went to the hospital once, and then spent his time reading books related to architects. He also contacted Chang Ye, a statistics student he had met on Narentis.
He wasn't very familiar with Chang Ye, and didn't mention that he wanted to be an architect. He simply asked Chang Ye for advice if he wanted to learn statistics well.
Chang Ye offered helpful advice and recommended some useful textbooks.
Wen Shumu didn't really need to be in such a hurry. He just needed to find something to do, otherwise he would be thinking about Ling Suyu like crazy.
After my brother arrived on the border planet, I haven't had time to video chat with him.
He could only glean glimpses of Ling Suyu's current situation from occasional text replies and news on the StarNet.
The alien beasts were driven out of the Ninoto border planet by the First Legion led by Marshal Ling, and they seem to be engaged in a fierce battle in space.
Perhaps because the war has not yet settled, the news reports are very general and not much useful information can be extracted.
Before Wen Shumu received any specific news about Ling Suyu, he received a notification about "Love's Star Journey".
Because Ling Suyu is still fighting off the alien beasts, the production team decided to announce the location of the next stop first, and the specific meeting time will be determined after the battle is over.
[Kemo: The next stop is the Empire's planet Floro.]
Wen Shumu murmured, "The City of Beauty..."
Floro Star is located in the southernmost part of the Empire and, strictly speaking, is also a border star, but it has shown a completely different development trend from most border stars.
The stable surrounding space environment, numerous jump points, and convenient navigation conditions provide excellent development opportunities here.
In addition, several artists who have made their mark on history have emerged from this place, and the climate is relatively warm and livable. As a result, many artists from various fields have chosen to settle on Furo Star, which has also attracted a large number of fashion brands to set up shop here.
Over time, Floro became a renowned art and fashion capital of the empire and even the entire interstellar space.
The residents here even worship Aphrodite, the goddess of beauty.
[Wen Wei: Huh? You actually came to my hometown.]
[Jiang Hong: It just so happens that a luxury brand invited my brother to a fashion show at Flora Star.]
[Ke Mo: We expect to assemble in mid-June, but the exact time depends on Marshal Ling.]
Ludwig suddenly sent a location, and when Wen Shumu looked at it, he realized that Ludwig had come to the Empire, and was on the Imperial Star.
[Wen Wei: What are you doing in the Empire?]
[Ludwig: I'm learning from my mentor in the field.]
Wen Shumu suddenly realized that Ludwig had come to see Chu Zhao.
A hint of admiration flashed in his eyes. Ludwig was a renowned manufacturing expert in interstellar space, yet he could travel so far to study. He couldn't afford to be distracted or slack off!
Wen Shumu calculated the time; it was early June now, and by the time of recording, he probably wouldn't be able to finish reading the 20 books recommended by Adolphus. He could only do his best.
Once he calculated the time, Wen Shumu suddenly felt even more motivated and continued to bury himself in his books, studying diligently.

In the boundless space, where there should only be mysterious nebulae and planets of various shapes, mechs are constantly flying by, encountering ferocious alien beasts.
The largest and most ferocious beast opened its blood-red maw, revealing sharp fangs, its eyes glowing red, greedily eyeing each mech, as if searching for a suitable prey.
A black Imperial mech was driving away other alien beasts, but it neglected to maintain a safe distance and stepped half of its body into the beasts' territory.
A red light flashed in the beast's eyes as it identified its prey. It roared and charged toward the black mech at an incredible speed that was difficult to detect with the naked eye.
When the soldier piloting the mech spotted the beast, it was already extremely close, leaving no time to dodge or even eject from the escape pod.
The soldier turned pale with fright and instinctively closed his eyes.
In his final moments, he was filled with regret.
He didn't regret his recklessness, but rather his failure to write a proper will.
Every soldier of the Empire must leave a letter for his family before going to war, either in paper form or by recording a video.
If they return alive, the letter will be destroyed; but if something happens to them... it will be delivered to their family.
Instead of the expected pain, the soldier opened his eyes with a trembling hand.
The beast's raised forepaws were frozen in place, and shattered along with the ice the instant the soldier opened his eyes.
No sound could be heard in space, but the soldiers could tell how much pain the beast was in from its ferocious, thrashing movements.
The soldiers quickly piloted their mechs to a safe distance. Looking at the deep blue mechs not far away, which were aiming their beam guns at the ferocious beasts, their eyes shone with fanatical reverence, as if they were seeing a savior god.
It's cracked ice!
