My Taoist buddy has practiced surrogacy

Chapter 1358 Troublesome
Ling Xue also showed a shy smile and responded: "Welcome back, I'm Ling Xue. You are a heroic interstellar route surveyor, right? Come and try it and see if it suits your taste." As she said that, she scooped a bowl of steaming hot soup and handed it to Zhou Xing.

Zhou Xing took the soup, took a sip and found it extremely delicious. He couldn't help but give a thumbs up and praised, "This is the best soup I have ever tasted! You are such an amazing cook." Ling Xue was amused by him and said, "Then you have to eat more. The astronauts have worked hard to complete their mission, so they need to nourish themselves well." Just like that, the two began to chat about everything from interesting things in interstellar travel to the unique flavors of various ingredients. They found that they had many common topics and interests.

Since then, every time Zhou Xing came to the "Dawn" space station, he would find an opportunity to go to the restaurant to meet Ling Xue. They would stroll together on the observation deck of the space station, overlooking the bright stars; they would sit in the corner in their spare time to share each other's dreams and stories. Gradually, the two hearts got closer and closer, and the seeds of love were quietly planted in their hearts.

However, their love was not smooth sailing. The nature of Zhou Xing's work required him to travel in the universe for a long time, carrying out various dangerous surveying and mapping tasks. Every separation could mean a separation of life and death, and the long separation also put their relationship to the test. Once, Zhou Xing received an extremely difficult task, which required him to go deep into a dangerous star field that had not been fully explored to map a route. There was a disordered magnetic field, dense meteorites, and many dangers.

Before the mission, Zhou Xing came to the restaurant to find Ling Xue. He looked into Ling Xue's eyes, his heart full of reluctance and worry. "Ling Xue, this mission is very difficult for me. I can't guarantee that I can return safely." Ling Xue's eyes were red. She held Zhou Xing's hand tightly and said, "Zhou Xing, I believe you can do it. No matter how difficult it is, I will wait for you here and cook your favorite dishes." Zhou Xing held Ling Xue in his arms and whispered, "Wait for me, I will definitely come back to marry you."

Zhou Xing led his team on the journey. In this dangerous star field, they encountered strong cosmic ray attacks, huge meteorite impacts and complex gravitational interference. The navigation system of the spacecraft failed for a time, and the team members fell into panic and despair. But Zhou Xing always remained calm. With his rich experience and excellent adaptability, he led everyone to overcome danger again and again.

At the critical moment when the spacecraft was in crisis, Zhou Xing ventured out of the cabin and performed manual navigation calibration in zero-gravity space. He swam hard in the dark universe, surrounded by endless stars and dangers. Every action required extreme caution and precision, and the slightest mistake would be thrown into the distant abyss of the universe. After a long and difficult effort, Zhou Xing finally successfully repaired the navigation system, led the team out of the dangerous area, and completed the route mapping mission.

When Zhou Xing dragged his exhausted body back to the "Dawn" space station, Ling Xue had already been waiting anxiously outside the docking cabin. Seeing Zhou Xing come out safe and sound, Ling Xue rushed over desperately and hugged him tightly. Tears welled up in their eyes. At this moment, they knew that the importance of each other in each other's hearts had surpassed everything.

After experiencing this life-and-death test, Zhou Xing and Ling Xue's relationship became deeper and stronger. They were no longer afraid of future separation and difficulties, because they knew that as long as there was love in their hearts, they could overcome any obstacles.

As time went by, Zhou Xing's reputation grew, and his surveying and mapping achievements made great contributions to interstellar navigation. But deep in his heart, he always had a wish, that is, to be with Ling Xue for the rest of his life. Finally, on a special day, Zhou Xing decided to propose to Ling Xue.

He carefully arranged a romantic proposal ceremony in the central square of the "Dawn" space station. The square was filled with twinkling starlight lights, simulating a bright starry sky. Zhou Xing stood under the starry sky, holding a carefully prepared ring, nervously and excitedly waiting for Ling Xue's arrival.

When Ling Xue slowly walked towards him, Zhou Xing knelt on one knee, looked at Ling Xue affectionately and said: "Ling Xue, from the moment I first saw you, my world was lit up. In this vast universe, you are my only harbor and home. I know our love journey is full of hardships and challenges, but I am willing to spend the rest of my life to protect you and accompany you. Will you marry me?" Ling Xue was so moved that her eyes were filled with tears. She stretched out her hand without hesitation and said: "Zhou Xing, I do! I am willing to walk through every corner of this vast universe with you, no matter the wind, rain or the stars."

Zhou Xing gently put the ring on Ling Xue's finger, then stood up and hugged Ling Xue tightly. People around gathered around and gave them the most sincere blessings and cheers. At that moment, the entire "Dawn" space station was shrouded in their love, becoming extremely warm and beautiful.

After marriage, Zhou Xing and Ling Xue lived a happy life. When Zhou Xing was not on duty, he would spend warm time with Ling Xue in the space station whenever he had time. They would study new recipes together in the kitchen and combine ingredients from different planets in an innovative way; they would lie on the balcony at night, holding hands and looking up at the stars and talking about their feelings; they would invite friends to their home for dinner to share their love stories and daily life.

However, the peaceful life did not last long. One day, the space station received an emergency distress signal from a distant planet. An ancient civilization relic on that planet suddenly released a powerful energy wave, threatening the ecological balance of the entire planet and the lives of the residents. Due to the special location and complex environment of the planet, the previous routes could not reach it directly, and a safe and fast rescue route needed to be replanned.

As an interstellar route surveyor, Zhou Xing took on this task without hesitation. He knew it would be an unprecedented challenge, because the planet was wrapped in a mysterious energy field, and conventional surveying tools and methods might be disturbed or even fail. But he did not flinch, because he knew that every life was precious, and he did not want to lose his courage and responsibility in front of his lover.

On the night before departure, Zhou Xing and Ling Xue came to the observation deck they often visited. They stood there quietly, looking at the vast starry sky, and no one spoke. After a long time, Ling Xue gently leaned on Zhou Xing's shoulder and said, "Zhou Xing, I know you will succeed. I will wait here for you to come back with good news, and my family and I will always support you." Zhou Xing turned around, gently stroked Ling Xue's hair and said, "Ling Xue, this mission may be my most difficult one, but I am not afraid. Because I know that with you waiting for me, I have unlimited power. If I can't come back, don't be sad, live well for me, and remember that the love between us will never disappear." Ling Xue shook her head vigorously and said, "No, you will be fine. We agreed to spend our lives together, not a day less."

The next morning, Zhou Xing led his team on board the spacecraft and embarked on a rescue route mapping journey full of unknowns and dangers. As they gradually approached the mysterious planet, they encountered huge obstacles. As soon as the spacecraft entered the energy field of the planet, various instruments and equipment began to give abnormal alarms. The navigation system failed, the communication signal was interrupted, and the power system was also affected to varying degrees.

Zhou Xing quickly calmed down and organized the team members to analyze and repair. While trying to repair the instrument, they continued to move forward with years of experience and intuition. In the difficult process of exploration, they found that this energy field seemed to follow a unique law and rhythm. Zhou Xing boldly put forward a hypothesis. He believed that if a frequency band synchronized with the energy field could be found, it might be possible to break through the blockade of this area. So, the team members began to devote themselves to the work of finding this frequency band. After countless trials and failures, they finally found a clue. Zhou Xing personally controlled the navigation system of the spacecraft, carefully adjusting the parameters, trying to match the frequency of the energy field. In the tense and suffocating atmosphere, time passed by every second.

Just when everyone felt desperate, a miracle happened. The spacecraft successfully broke through the restrictions of the energy field and entered the interior of the planet. Zhou Xing and his team members cheered, but they also knew that the real challenge had just begun. Next, they needed to find the remains of the ancient civilization as soon as possible, determine the source of the energy fluctuations and develop a solution.

During the arduous search on the planet, they encountered harsh natural environments, ferocious monsters, and complex terrain traps. But Zhou Xing always led the team forward, and their persistence and hard work finally paid off. They found the remains of a civilization emitting powerful energy fluctuations in an ancient ruin. It turned out that this was an ancient energy core device, which was damaged for unknown reasons due to its age, causing uncontrolled energy leakage.

Zhou Xing and his team quickly started working, conducting in-depth research and repairing the energy core device. After days and nights of hard work, they successfully stabilized the energy fluctuations and eliminated the threat to the planet. The residents of the entire planet were grateful to them and regarded them as heroes and saviors.

Ling Xue runs a snack supermarket. Suddenly, the freezer in the supermarket broke down and the cold air inside kept leaking out. Ling Xue was extremely worried. If the freezer broke down, the ice cream and popsicles inside would melt, which would be a huge loss. She quickly sent a message for help in the community owner group, hoping to find a repairman to help.

Zhou Xing happened to see this message in the owner group. He was a plumber and electricity installer. Seeing this situation, he immediately replied to Ling Xue and said he could help. Not long after, Zhou Xing came to Ling Xue's supermarket with tools.

Zhou Xing skillfully opened the freezer and checked it carefully. He found that there was something wrong with the freezer's compressor and needed to be replaced with a new one. When disassembling the old compressor, he accidentally knocked over a row of imported chocolates. Ling Xue watched from the side, frowning with heartache. Zhou Xing also felt a little embarrassed. While cleaning up, he said, "I'm really sorry, I'll compensate you." Although Ling Xue felt distressed, she still waved her hand and said, "Forget it, it's not your fault. Just fix the freezer."

Zhou Xing worked very hard. In order to restore the freezer to normal operation as soon as possible, he went to the parts store overnight to buy the appropriate parts. While repairing, a bottle of antidepressant fell out of his work clothes pocket. When Ling Xue saw it, she was a little confused, but she didn't ask any more questions.

The next day, the freezer was repaired, and Ling Xue was very grateful to Zhou Xing. Seeing that Zhou Xing always ate his lunch boxes with cold water, she felt a little sorry, so she forced Zhou Xing to eat two heated lunch boxes. Zhou Xing looked at Ling Xue gratefully and took the lunch boxes.

Zhou Xing's daughter suffers from congenital heart disease. His wife left home after his daughter became ill and never came back. Zhou Xing had to be both a father and a mother, and he also had to work hard to earn money for his daughter's medical treatment. His life was very difficult.

One day, Zhou Xing's daughter fainted at school. The teacher hurriedly called Zhou Xing, who was repairing water and electricity at a customer's home at the time. After receiving the call, he was extremely anxious. But the customer's water pipe was still leaking, and he couldn't just leave his work alone. Just then, Ling Xue passed by. Seeing Zhou Xing's anxious look, she asked about the situation and immediately said, "You go pick up the child first, and I'll help you fix the water pipe here." Zhou Xing hesitated, but the situation was urgent, so he had to hand the tools to Ling Xue and hurried to school.

Although Ling Xue had never fixed a water pipe before, she still plucked up the courage to try. She followed Zhou Xing's instructions and finally fixed the water pipe, but she herself was soaked.

In the evening, Zhou Xing returned to the clinic and saw Ling Xue accompanying his daughter. Ling Xue was holding an Ultraman figurine in her hand and was making her daughter happy. The daughter weakly pointed at Ling Xue's snack bag and said, "I want to eat Auntie's wave potato chips..." Zhou Xing looked at this scene and was deeply moved.

However, life did not let Zhou Xing off. His ex-wife suddenly came back to fight for custody and falsely accused Zhou Xing of domestic violence. Zhou Xing was speechless, as he knew that it was difficult for him to fight against his ex-wife alone. After Ling Xue learned about this, she secretly contacted a lawyer friend. She collected Zhou Xing's good reviews for water and electricity maintenance, hoping to use these to prove that Zhou Xing was a kind person who would not commit domestic violence.

Ling Xue's snack supermarket was defrauded when purchasing goods and lost a large sum of money. When Zhou Xing found out, he felt that he had harmed Ling Xue, because if he had not given the maintenance work to her, she would not have encountered such trouble. So Zhou Xing secretly took on several private jobs, hoping to make more money to help Ling Xue make up for the loss.

Due to excessive fatigue, Zhou Xing had an accident during a maintenance job. He was electrocuted and unconscious, and was rushed to the hospital. After Ling Xue learned the news, she rushed to the hospital anxiously. She saw Zhou Xing lying on the bed, and she was angry and distressed. "Why are you working so hard!" Ling Xue yelled. Zhou Xing opened his eyes weakly and looked at Ling Xue, his eyes full of guilt.

While scolding Zhou Xing, Ling Xue used her own savings to help him pay the hospital deposit. Zhou Xing felt guilty and felt that he was a burden to Ling Xue.
