Shen Shuyi felt his tenseness, slowed down her strength appropriately, and gently diverted his attention in an attempt to touch him for a longer time.
"Admiral, how come you have a tail? I've never heard of a sentinel's spirit body having a physical body."
She looked up quietly and saw his red neck, his rolling Adam's apple, and the snow-white furry ears that had appeared on his head at some point.
Shen Shuyi propped herself up in surprise and tried to touch his ears, but unexpectedly threw Xavier onto the bed.
Xavier's jawline was tense, and he forced himself to remain calm as he carried the person aside.
He stood up, straightened his clothes in an orderly manner, and raised his chin slightly to his cunning and bold wife.
"go back."
Seeing that his ears were red and he was trying to be calm, Shen Shuyi didn't push him too hard and stood up obediently.
Before leaving, she grabbed the door and stuck her head back, smiling and saying:
"Then I hope Admiral Xavier can answer my questions next time."
…
The next day, Shen Shuyi saw Xavier in the living room as soon as she came downstairs, and she went down to greet him as usual.
"Good morning, Admiral~"
Xavier nodded in response, and when she finished breakfast, he said, "Are you free these days? Come with me to Hermes, where we have discovered a powerful energy-conducting crystal mine that can be used to improve engines."
Shen Shuyi's eyes lit up, "That's great, I'm looking forward to the moment when the engine is rebuilt."
"Well, Hermes is a barren planet under my name. I have deployed a team of scientific researchers there to develop combat machinery. They have seen your drawings and can try to make them, but they may need to communicate with you in person."
Xavier did not look down on Shen Shuyi because she was a poor student in the Imperial Military Academy. After all, she was Professor Shen Shan's biological daughter, and things like genetic inheritance were difficult to say.
Maybe she suddenly got it.
Shen Shuyi nodded, "Yeah! How many days will we be gone? I'll go upstairs to pack some luggage."
"About a week." Xavier checked the time, "You have thirty minutes to prepare."
"Dong Dong Dong" Shen Shuyi ran upstairs in a flash. Xavier looked at her back and couldn't help but smile.
Shen Shuyi was sitting in Xavier's personal aircraft. Xavier sat in the driver's seat to set the route and speed. Once he determined the coordinates of Hermes, he could drive automatically.
The planet Hermes is a relatively remote and desolate planet. Xavier led his army to snatch it back from the Zerg in the early years and saved the local residents.
Since this was a barren planet with no mineral resources and only a few civilians living on it, Emperor Palpa took the opportunity to give the planet to Xavier as a trophy.
Originally, Palpa didn't take the local civilians seriously and allowed the Zerg to slaughter them. It was Xavier who turned here on his way back to the Imperial Star from the battle in the distant star and annihilated the Zerg.
Shen Shuyi looked at the route planned by the aircraft, raised his eyes and spoke to Xavier, "Admiral, this route is too old, we won't encounter any interstellar pirates along the way, right?"
Xavier chuckled, "If you are really that unlucky, are you afraid?"
"Well... a little bit." Chen Shuyi thought that he wouldn't be that unlucky, as he could just go through three transitions smoothly and arrive there.
She said she was a little scared, but she fell asleep during the first jump.
Xavier saw that she was very interested in looking up the introduction of the planet Hermes on the Star Network at first, but she became sleepy after a while and her long eyelashes could not blink.
After a while, she naturally leaned over and fell asleep on his shoulder.
Xavier sat up slightly and let her sleep on him.
Perhaps it was because the sweet floral scent was too tempting. She was so cute even though she was leaning against his shoulder and her face was slightly deformed. How could Xavier push her away so rudely?
What's more, they had done something more intimate last night...
Xavier let her lean on him, and he felt like hugging her.
As it turned out, they were lucky and arrived at the planet Hermes smoothly.
Shen Shuyi woke up when the aircraft was slowing down, and when he opened his eyes, he met Xavier's handsome face.
She felt a little embarrassed when she found that she had been sleeping on someone else. "Sorry..."
"We're here, let's go down." Xavier still had a serious look on his face.
After landing, Xavier first took Shen Shuyi to the research institute where Hermes was located.
Shen Shuyi glanced at the rather large building and asked curiously, “Has this been approved by the Empire?”
"No."
"General...Aren't you afraid that the emperor will find out and take revenge on you?"
Xavier chuckled, "He can't find this place yet. Besides, those civilians he gave up on long ago won't report me."
"That's good. This way we don't have to be restricted in research and development. Everything we do has to go through layers of review, and we don't know when we will get the approval." Shen Shuyi was secretly panicking. Xavier had never thought of rebelling, but Emperor Palpa and those ministers had long wanted to eradicate him, so the battle against the Zerg in the previous life was not followed up by a traitor, and there was also a traitor who passed the news of the military camp to the Zerg.
In this life, whether Xavier wants to rebel or not, she has to be prepared. She can't let her child be born without a father.
"Come with me, I'll take you to see Professor Richter." Xavier motioned for her to follow.
Richter is an old man with a lame leg but in good spirits. He is the leader of this research institute.
Before simply saying hello, Shen Shuyi discovered that the researchers in this institute all had varying degrees of disabilities.
