I Married a Commander and Became a Galaxy Star

Chapter 51: Chapter 51: You Must Be Good and Eat to Grow Nice and Plump

To escape the piercing gazes, Shu Chao Yu had unknowingly gotten separated from Shu Yao and Xiao Juzi. Just as he was berating himself, he received a voice call from Xiao Ma.

”Brother Chao, Brother Chao, my goddess needs my help again! This time she’s not going after your niece, but I still thought I should run it by you!”

Shu Chao Yu frowned. ”What kind of trouble is Lin Zhenxiang trying to stir up now?”

Brother Xiao Ma said, ”I’m guessing it has something to do with her restaurant. Since it’s not aimed at your niece, I’m going to do everything I can to help my goddess get through this!”

Judging by the sound of his voice, he was pretty excited that his goddess had asked for his help.

Shu Chao Yu was speechless. ”Have you... fucking forgotten who I am?”

Brother Xiao Ma said pitifully, ”You’re eating steamed eggs, egg rolls, and omurice every day. Your brother here wants a bite of something hot, too.”

Shu Chao Yu gave him a veiled warning. ”I suggest you don’t get too involved with the Lin Family!”

Brother Xiao Ma replied, ”Relax, darling. I know what I’m doing!”

”Get lost!” Shu Chao Yu cursed with a laugh, then asked, ”You’re up early today, though.”

Xiao Ma was a night owl and would usually still be fast asleep in his sleep pod at this hour.

Xiao Ma didn’t hide it from him. ”My goddess is livestreaming at Luoxing Port today. It’s a rare outdoor stream for her. How could a die-hard fan like me miss it!”

Shu Chao Yu was startled. ”Lin Zhenxiang is at Luoxing Port, too?”

’She must be up to no good!’

”Too?”

”My niece, my grand-nephew, and I are at Luoxing Port as well.” Shu Chao Yu’s tone grew heavy as he spoke, his eyes scanning the area.

”Huh? What a coincidence...” Xiao Ma’s voice cut off abruptly. He suddenly remembered the ”Sister Shu” who had appeared on his goddess’s stream. ”Ah, wait, that Sister Shu is your niece! Agh, you both have the surname Shu, I should’ve realized it sooner!”

He’d even joined Lin Zhenxiang’s other mindless fans in the live chat to hurl personal attacks at that Sister Shu.

’No way. I can’t let Brother Chao find out about this. He’s so protective of his family!’

Xiao Ma quickly changed the subject. ”By the way, Brother Chao, one more thing. There’s a rumor going around that Star Thieves have been spotted at Luoxing Port. You guys should be careful! Aaah, I’m so sleepy I can’t keep my eyes open. Going back to bed—” He yawned and hung up.

Shu Chao Yu was too worried about finding his family to bother arguing with him.

At the same time, he was overcome with self-reproach. ’I can’t even keep an eye on the kids. What an incompetent elder I am!’

”Uncle.” Shu Yao found him before he could find her. Not seeing her son with him, she asked, ”Where’s Xiao Juzi?”

Shu Chao Yu was a little stunned. ”Wasn’t Xiao Juzi with you the whole time?”

’That little rascal!’

Shu Yao sighed, feeling every bit the weary mother.

She handed Shu Chao Yu a bag of fish maws.

Seeing the look of disgust and nausea on his face, she immediately warned, ”If you dare throw this away, our uncle-niece relationship ends here and now!”

’So a blood-related uncle is worth less than a bag of trash!?’

PFFT!

The 10,000-point critical hit made Shu Chao Yu choke, as if on a mouthful of his own blood.

「Meanwhile.」

A small, doughy-cheeked child, so cute you just wanted to squish him, was pressed up against a fish tank, making a promise to the pretty little red fish inside.

”Mommy said I can’t have you guys just yet...”

”When I’m all grown up, I’ll bring you all home with me...”

”You have to be good and eat lots, so you get nice and plump...”

Just then, several military vessels appeared overhead.

Cordon lines automatically descended from the Starship’s ceiling, putting Luoxing Port on lockdown. The entire port became like a prison, with no one allowed in or out.

The cold, mechanical voice of the Main Brain rang out, broadcast through some kind of amplification system to every corner of Luoxing Port:

”Public announcement: a military lockdown is in effect. A security threat has been identified within Luoxing Port. All personnel from the Outer Star System are required to cooperate with the military and present their identification.”
