My Taoist buddy has practiced surrogacy

Chapter 1339 Goal

Or in order to mix a new flavor, she tried countless different recipe combinations. She also said that although life in the space station is relatively monotonous, being able to make delicious food for every staff member here and seeing their satisfied smiles is her greatest happiness.

As Zhou Xing got to know her better, he discovered that Ling Xue was not only a skilled cook, but also kindhearted and passionate. She treated everyone who came to dine like a family member, patiently asking about their dietary needs and adjusting the food according to their physical conditions and taste preferences. Ling Xue also felt that Zhou Xing was a sincere, brave and responsible person who was passionate about his work. His spirit of exploration of the unknown interstellar world deeply touched her.

However, the peaceful days did not last long. One day, the space station suddenly received an urgent notice from the Galaxy Alliance headquarters. A powerful alien force was heading towards this galaxy, and their target was this strategically important space station. It was said that this alien force had advanced weapons technology and a huge fleet, and wherever it went, the planets and space stations suffered heavy damage.

The space station was immediately plunged into a tense atmosphere. Scientists were busy activating various defense systems and scientific research equipment, trying to analyze the weaknesses of the alien forces and find countermeasures; soldiers quickly assembled to conduct combat deployment and defense drills; and non-combatants like Zhou Xing were also organized to participate in the material transportation and emergency maintenance of the space station.

The kitchen where Ling Xue worked was not spared. The originally sufficient and orderly food reserves were greatly reduced because the nutritional needs of the combatants were given priority, and the kitchen equipment also faced energy shortages. To make matters worse, the alien forces' attacks were gradually approaching, and the shield of the space station began to flicker and become unstable under repeated impacts.

Zhou Xing knew that he couldn't just sit back and do nothing. Although he was not a soldier, he took the initiative to find the military commander of the space station with his rich knowledge and experience accumulated in interstellar navigation. He said to the commander: "I am familiar with the interstellar environment of this galaxy during the surveying process. Maybe I can find some interstellar phenomena that can be used to interfere with the attack route of the alien fleet. And I can also assist you with some technical analysis and decision-making support." The commander looked at Zhou Xing's determined eyes and nodded in agreement with his proposal.

At the same time, Ling Xue was also trying her best in the kitchen. She reorganized and distributed the remaining ingredients, and carefully prepared nutritious but resource-saving wartime special meals. She said to everyone who came to receive the meals: "Everyone must eat well. Only by maintaining physical strength and energy can we better resist the enemy." She also organized the kitchen staff to use all available materials to reinforce the kitchen's protective facilities to protect everyone's safety to the greatest extent in case the battle spread to the kitchen.

As the alien forces continue to approach, the battle on the space station becomes more and more intense. Zhou Xing follows the military team and works intensively in the control center. They use the detection instruments of the space station to closely monitor the movements of the alien fleet, and try to interfere and mislead them through various means. Zhou Xing puts forward a bold suggestion to use an unstable asteroid belt near the space station as a cover to guide the alien fleet into it, causing it to fall into the collision and gravitational interference of asteroids. However, this plan requires precise calculations and perfect timing. If there is a mistake, the space station will face greater danger.

During the implementation of the plan, an accident occurred. The alien forces seemed to have sensed the intention of the space station and launched a more violent attack in advance. The shield of the space station finally broke under the powerful energy impact, and some areas began to catch fire and explode. In the chaos, Zhou Xing and his team almost lost contact with the headquarters. At the critical moment, Zhou Xing relied on his super adaptability and firm belief to quickly repair the communication equipment and continue to command the operation.

Meanwhile, Ling Xue was not idle in the kitchen. A stray bullet suddenly hit the energy supply pipeline near the kitchen, causing a small fire. Thick smoke quickly spread, and the fire had a tendency to spread. Ling Xue took up the fire extinguisher without hesitation and led the kitchen staff to put out the fire. However, the fire was too big, and the effect of the fire extinguisher was minimal. Just when everyone felt desperate, Ling Xue suddenly thought of a way. She directed everyone to use the kitchen's wet cloth and bucket to pour water from the kitchen's ventilation duct to the source of the fire, and at the same time use the kitchen's ventilation system to exhaust the thick smoke outside. After a tense fight, the fire was finally brought under control.

Just when the space station was in dire straits, Zhou Xing's plan succeeded. The alien fleet encountered many problems in the asteroid belt, and many spacecraft collided and malfunctioned, which greatly reduced their offensive. The space station seized this opportunity and launched a counterattack. The soldiers controlled laser weapons and energy shields and launched a fierce attack on the alien forces. Gradually, the alien forces began to collapse. They realized that they could not conquer this stubborn space station, so they turned around and fled the galaxy.

When the news of victory came, the entire space station was boiling. People cheered and hugged each other to celebrate this hard-won victory. Zhou Xing and Ling Xue also smiled at each other in the crowd, with tears of excitement and relief in their eyes. In this life-and-death test, they not only witnessed each other's courage and tenacity, but also deeply felt the important position of each other in their hearts.

After the battle, the space station entered an intense repair and reconstruction phase. Zhou Xing was still busy with route mapping, but whenever he had time, he would run to the kitchen to find Ling Xue. They would sit together in the corner of the kitchen, sharing each other's feelings and experiences in the battle. Sometimes, they would look at each other silently, and they could read each other's deep emotions without words.

When Zhou Xing was tired, Ling Xue would bring him a cup of steaming hot coffee, watch him drink it slowly, and then say softly: "Thank you for your hard work, you always work so hard." Zhou Xing would hold Ling Xue's hand and say gently: "As long as you are here, I don't feel tired. You and your food are my warmest harbor in this universe." Their feelings gradually warmed up in this warm atmosphere, from the initial affection and appreciation to deep love.

On a quiet night, the starry sky outside the space station was particularly bright. Zhou Xing brought Ling Xue to the observation deck. From here, you can overlook the magnificent scenery of the entire space station and the vast universe. Zhou Xing held Ling Xue's hand, stood on the edge of the observation deck, and looked at her affectionately. He took out an exquisite ring from his pocket. The ring was inlaid with a shining gem, which emitted a charming light under the reflection of the starry sky.

"Lingxue," Zhou Xing said softly, "from the moment I first saw you in the dining area, my world began to change. Your kindness, enthusiasm and smile illuminate my life like the stars in the sky. After experiencing that life-and-death test, I am more certain of my feelings. I love you, will you marry me?"

Ling Xue was so moved that tears welled up in her eyes. She looked into Zhou Xing's sincere eyes, nodded and said, "I do, Zhou Xing. I love you too, you are the one I have been waiting for." Zhou Xing slowly put the ring on Ling Xue's finger, and then hugged her tightly. They hugged and cried on the observation deck, feeling the sound of each other's heartbeats and this hard-earned happiness.

After confirming their relationship, Zhou Xing and Ling Xue began to prepare for their wedding. However, it was not easy to hold a wedding in this special space station environment. They first had to solve the problem of the venue. Since most areas of the space station were under repair and reconstruction, they finally chose the dining area as the main venue for the wedding. After all, this was where their relationship warmed up and had special significance.

In order to make the dining area more romantic and warm, Ling Xue personally decorated it. She decorated every corner of the kitchen with various flowers and ribbons, and arranged the exquisite tableware into various beautiful patterns. Zhou Xing was responsible for inviting the space station staff to the wedding. He knocked on every door to convey his and Ling Xue's joy to everyone. Everyone was happy for them and said that they would definitely attend the wedding and send their blessings.

During the wedding preparations, they also encountered some small incidents. For example, when preparing the wedding cake, due to the limited ingredients in the space station, they could only use some simple materials to make it. But Ling Xue relied on her culinary talent to turn the limited ingredients into a delicious and beautiful cake. Another time, when setting up the wedding scene, a small meteorite shower suddenly appeared. Although it did not cause much impact on the space station, it still scared everyone. However, these small episodes did not affect their mood for preparing for the wedding, but instead became their interesting memories before the wedding.

Finally, the wedding day arrived. The dining area was dressed up and full of romance. The fragrance of flowers filled the air, and ribbons fluttered in the wind. The staff of the space station all wore their most beautiful clothes, with happy smiles on their faces. Zhou Xing, wearing a neat dress, stood in the center of the wedding stage. His eyes revealed nervousness and expectation. When the music started, Ling Xue walked slowly with the bridesmaids. She was wearing a white wedding dress, as beautiful as a fairy. Zhou Xing's eyes were full of love and amazement, and he was almost stunned.

The pastor stood on the stage, solemnly presiding over the wedding ceremony. He asked Zhou Xing and Ling Xue if they were willing to be married, and never leave each other no matter they were rich or poor, old or dead. Zhou Xing and Ling Xue answered firmly, "I do." Then they exchanged rings and kissed each other affectionately. There was warm applause and cheers from the audience.

At the wedding banquet, everyone toasted and shared delicious food and joy. Zhou Xing and Ling Xue kept toasting everyone. Ling Xue also prepared a special dish for everyone - starry sky cake. This cake is themed with the starry sky and made with ingredients of various colors, symbolizing that their love is as vast and eternal as the starry sky.

After the wedding, Zhou Xing and Ling Xue began their happy married life. They still worked and lived on the space station, but each other's presence made each other's life more fulfilling and meaningful.

Zhou Xing's route mapping work went more and more smoothly. Every time he left and returned, he was filled with deep longing and attachment to Ling Xue. Ling Xue continued to create all kinds of delicious food in the kitchen. She would prepare a special love lunch box for Zhou Xing, so that he could feel the warmth of home during the long interstellar voyage.

They often walk together in the garden of the space station, watching the flowers blooming and the vegetables they planted growing. Sometimes, they sit on a bench in the garden and quietly look up at the stars, imagining a better life in the future. They hope that one day they can have their own house and garden on a quiet and beautiful planet and spend the rest of their lives there.

With the support of the Galaxy Alliance, the security situation around the space station has gradually stabilized. The galaxy has begun to regain its former prosperity and vitality. New technologies and cultures are constantly emerging and developing. Zhou Xing and Ling Xue are also actively participating in these changes. They use their own strength to contribute to the development of the space station, and at the same time witness each other's growth and progress in love and career.

One night many years later, Zhou Xing and Ling Xue stood on the platform of their space station, which had been expanded many times. They held hands and recalled every detail of the past. The years had left traces on their faces, but their eyes were still full of love for each other and longing for the future. They knew that no matter how long and difficult the road ahead was, as long as they accompanied and supported each other, they would be able to go through every journey of life.

Ling Xue and Zhou Xing were shocked. They didn't expect that an important official of the imperial court was involved in this. Ling Xue said to Zhou Xing, "We must report this to the emperor as soon as possible. We can't let these people succeed in their conspiracy."

Zhou Xing nodded, "Don't worry, Lord Justice, I'll make the arrangements right away."

After returning to the capital, Ling Xue and Zhou Xing met with the emperor. When the emperor heard about this, he was furious and immediately ordered a thorough investigation of the minister. After a trial and investigation, the minister's crimes were exposed. The emperor, considering their old friendship, only dismissed him from his post and did not kill him.

Ling Xue and Zhou Xing performed outstandingly in this case, and the emperor personally commended them.

After this incident, Ling Xue's feelings for Zhou Xing became even deeper. She looked at Zhou Xing with love in her eyes, "Detective Zhou, without your help, I'm afraid it would be difficult for me to solve this case."

Zhou Xing scratched his head and smiled shyly, "Thank you for your praise, Lord Judicial Commissioner. This is what I should do."

Ling Xue sighed softly, "It is fate that we met on this case. I only hope that I can work with you on cases in the future."

Zhou Xing's heart moved, and he mustered up the courage to say: "Sir, if I can win your favor, it will be my honor in this life. But I am just a constable..."

Ling Xue rolled her eyes at him, "If you really love me, why bother about your status? As long as we are sincere to each other, it is the best fate in the world."

Zhou Xing was happy.
