I Married a Commander and Became a Galaxy Star

Chapter 52: Chapter 52: Commander Qin Is Looking at You! He’s Definitely Looking at You

An announcement.

The Main Brain repeated it three times, its mechanical voice cold and its tone flat.

Devoid of any emotion, the voice was nonetheless chilling, inexplicably making one tremble with fear.

Experiencing a scene like this for the first time, Xiao Juzi was suddenly struck with panic, looking around, feeling alone and helpless.

”Mama...”

As if sensing the crisis, the little red fish in the tank began to dart about madly, their frantic movements churning up splashes of water.

SPLASH!

A droplet of water splashed onto Xiao Juzi’s cheek.

He raised his little hand to touch it, feeling the cold, wet spot. He instantly felt as if he had been dropped into a cryogenic pod, a chill running through his entire body.

”Mama...” Zaizai’s little voice trembled, on the verge of tears.

When he saw a man disembarking from a warship not far away, he froze. For a moment, he forgot everything else, his little head filled with a big question.

The man had a serene face and a cold demeanor, but the faint, cold glint in his dark green eyes was especially intimidating. His black military boots were perfectly fitted, and though the sound they made against the ground was faint, it was enough to make one hold their breath and feel as if their life was on a countdown.

’It’s that smug jerk from the banquet!’

But—

’Why do I smell a hint of that annoying guy on this smug jerk?’ 𝑓𝑟ℯℴ𝓂

Xiao Juzi tilted his head, wracking his little brain but unable to figure it out.

Qin Shiwei had also noticed his and Shu Yao’s son and could tell the little one had clearly sniffed out a clue.

But he was leading a mission today and hadn’t brought his disguise device.

’How am I supposed to deal with this? Help needed, urgently!’

Soon, however, he noticed the confused little expression on his son’s face.

’He... doesn’t look too bright.’

That put him at ease.

’Since the little guy is here, Yaoyao must be nearby.’

Qin Shiwei began to scan the crowd, searching for the figure he longed for day and night.

His Light Brain suddenly moved closer and whispered, ”Master, a message has arrived from the Lady! Should I read it aloud?”

”No need.” Qin Shiwei opened the text message.

Shu Yao: ”Darling, what are you doing at Luoxing Port?”

A smile bloomed in the man’s eyes, and a trace of warmth surfaced along with it. The thought that she was in the crowd watching him made his chest pound violently, and it felt as if the emotions he had long suppressed could surge forth at any moment.

Qin Shiwei closed his eyes and focused, suppressing his physiological repulsion as he used his keen sense of smell to pinpoint Shu Yao’s location.

The air was thick with the stench of fish, mixed with a jumble of familiar and unfamiliar scents.

It was nauseating.

Soon, amidst the chaotic miasma, he distinguished and locked onto that sweet, citrus-like fragrance.

He snapped his eyes open and looked toward the crowd to his rear right, and sure enough, he saw the woman who haunted his dreams.

Qin Shiwei mouthed a silent reply to her: ”Mission.”

Shu Yao froze.

The next second, a shriek pierced her eardrums:

”AHHHH, THE COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF IS LOOKING THIS WAY! Xiangxiang, did you see that?! The Commander-in-Chief is looking at us!”

Shu Yao turned to look and was surprised to see the minor internet celebrity, Zhang Xiaoxiao, and Lin Zhenxiang were there as well.

That glance from Commander Qin had sent Zhang Xiaoxiao into a frenzy.

Several other young women in the crowd started screaming along with her.

Lin Zhenxiang’s reaction was relatively calm. In fact, the moment Commander Qin glanced over, she deliberately adopted a dignified posture, standing out from the crowd like a crane among chickens. It was a stark contrast to Zhang Xiaoxiao and her gaggle of fangirls.

’As long as I make myself look different from the others, Commander Qin will definitely notice me!’

Although Zhang Xiaoxiao was going wild, she had enough self-awareness to know that with her status, it was impossible for her to ever earn Commander Qin’s favor.

But Lin Zhenxiang was different—

”Xiangxiang, Commander Qin is looking at you! He must be looking at you!”

She kept inching closer to Lin Zhenxiang, hoping to catch a sliver of Commander Qin’s attention. To draw even more notice, she even raised Lin Zhenxiang’s hand.

”Xiangxiang, hurry up and respond!”

Lin Zhenxiang, her heart lost in a dreamlike pink fantasy, had her expression change in an instant when Zhang Xiaoxiao forcibly raised her hand.

She yanked her hand back and warned with a cold expression, ”Stop messing around!”

’What if Commander Qin wasn’t looking at me? Wouldn’t I be making a huge fool of myself?!’

’But if it wasn’t me, who else could it be?’

Just then, Lin Zhenxiang noticed Shu Yao, who was busy sending a message to someone.
