Chapter 13: Roommates Talk
Su Jiu returned to the dormitory. Shen Yao, who had just ended her conversation with Gu Lingrui, looked at her with an ambiguous expression.

"Sister-in-law, how are you getting along with your eldest brother?"

Now that the matter had been spoken out, Su Jiu no longer felt conflicted and was not planning to buy the hidden potion in order to save money.

However, she still had to talk about how Shen Yao took her to Gu Lingce's lounge.

With a pale face and dark eyes, he stared at Shen Yao motionlessly. Combined with her delicate appearance, she looked very aggrieved.

If someone else made this expression, it would definitely seem very artificial, but Su Jiu's expression made Shen Yao feel creepy.

"Yaoyao~! Why didn't you tell me in advance when you were going to take me to meet your eldest brother? Should I prepare a surprise for him too?"

Shen Yao tried hard to suppress the chill rising in her heart and forced a smile, "Sister-in-law, my mother said she wanted to give you and my brother a surprise."

"I asked Brother Rui, and he said it's absolutely possible."

Gu Lingrui, the straight man who was exposed by his wife, couldn't help but sneeze on the border star.

Okay, since Queen Boss was involved in this matter, Su Jiu decided not to pursue it.

As for Gu Lingrui, I will definitely make it up to him when I have the chance.

Although it has been exposed, you still have to hold on to the boss's thighs tightly.

I opened the refrigerator, looked at the ingredients inside and decided to cook dinner and send it to the boss. Maybe he would be less angry.

Shen Yao watched Su Jiu busy herself in the kitchen, and followed in curiously, "Sister-in-law, do you want to cook?"

"Do you want me to help you?"

As he spoke, a silver-white robot wearing a floral apron appeared in front of him. "Sister-in-law, if you have anything to eat, you can ask Xiaoyuan to make it. It cooks delicious dishes."

Su Jiu stopped what he was doing, looked at Shen Yao, and couldn't help laughing.

She just wanted to scare Shen Yao and didn't really care about it.

"Then let's do it together!"

The food cooked by the robot Madoka was so delicious that she almost wanted to give up cooking.

However, the taste of each person's cooking is different. In order to show her sincerity, she must cook the portion for Gu Lingce herself.

When Su Jiu started cooking, Xiong Ying and Bai Lanxi came out. Smelling the aroma and seeing the delicious dishes in the pot, the three of them instantly became Su Jiu's fans.

After putting the prepared meals into the thermal box and placing it in the space button, Su Jiu was ready to go out.

Xiong Ying looked at the table full of delicious food and asked in confusion: "Jiujiu, where are you going? Aren't you going to eat with us?"

Su Jiu put on her shoes and said with a smile, "I'll be back soon, you guys eat first."

By this time, the boss is expected to still be sleeping.

She should go and come back quickly, maybe the food in the dormitory will still be hot when she returns.

Seeing Su Jiu quickly going downstairs and leaving on a hoverboard, Xiong Ying became even more confused, "Who is she delivering food to?"

Shen Yao smiled but said nothing. Bai Lanxi took a bite of sweet and sour pork tenderloin and put it into her mouth. She said in a vague voice, "It must be for my eldest cousin."

Xiong Ying suddenly realized and started working without asking any more questions.

Su Jiu came back very quickly. Xiong Ying had only taken a few bites. She was a little unresponsive when she saw Su Jiu coming in, changing shoes, washing his hands, and sitting down to eat.

"His Highness the God of War didn't invite you to eat together?"

Why does this feel a little wrong?
Bai Lanxi and Shen Yao also stopped and looked at Su Jiu. Su Jiu said casually, "Oh, he is sleeping. Let's eat after he wakes up."

"So are you staying over in the lounge or here tonight?"

"Actually, since my eldest brother is here, you can go back to the mansion with him."

Shen Yao looked at Su Jiu curiously. The gossip light enveloped the people present. Xiong Ying's eyes were full of light. She didn't even eat the delicious dishes and just looked at Su Jiu curiously.

Su Jiu, who was still thick-skinned, calmly picked up a bite of food and ate it before saying, "Stay in the dormitory."

Bai Lanxi couldn't help but let out an "ah", then asked regretfully: "Don't people want to be together after marriage?"

"It's rare for my cousin to come back."

At this moment, Su Jiu suddenly remembered the plot about Bai Lanxi in the original novel. Angus was the kind of person who was not good at expressing himself and spent most of the year on the border planet. It could be said that he was about the same as Gu Lingce, and the number of times he returned to the capital planet in a year could be counted.

Bai Lanxi was originally waiting quietly for marriage, but later, influenced by her friends, she eloped with her classmates. Angus forgave Bai Lanxi and treated her as a friend, but in fact, he really liked Bai Lanxi.

When she first saw this, she wanted to stop Bai Lanxi's classmate from approaching her, because it was proven that the classmate had ulterior motives.

"You don't have to stick together after marriage. It's good to have your own things to do and live a fulfilling and interesting life."

Bai Lanxi was a little puzzled, "But won't the relationship fade away like this?"

She is really different from her smart image! She is cute and innocent, but also easy to be deceived.

"Relationships don't have to stick together to increase."

Su Jiu asked with a smile: "Xixi, your wedding date with Angus is approaching, right?"

It's not too late to change this couple's ending from now on.

Shen Yao and Xiong Ying's attention was also attracted. Being stared at by three pairs of gossipy eyes, Bai Lanxi couldn't help but blush.

I always feel like something is wrong. Weren't they just talking about Jiujiu and her cousin? Why are they suddenly talking about her wedding date?
"My family is already discussing the wedding date."

Bai Lanxi stopped eating, propped her chin with one hand, hesitated for a moment and said the question that had been in her mind for a long time. "Cousin, do you think it will be really happy for two people who only see each other a few times a year to get married?"

"I can hardly remember what Angus looks like."

Su Jiu understood, but Shen Yao and Xiong Ying didn't expect her to ask this.

"Everyone has their own way of living, and every couple has their own way of being happy."

"I'm newly married and don't have a say yet. You can ask Yaoyao. She's been married for a year, and the Second Prince and Angus are also away from home almost all year round."

"Do you think she's happy?"

Shen Yao, who was suddenly called, smiled and said generously: "Happy!"

"Brother Rui is usually on the border planet. I can go over if I'm free. In fact, he sometimes has holidays."

"We still video chat when we have free time. Even though he looks like he doesn't understand love, he actually knows it."

Xiong Ying couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, and Su Jiu and Bai Lanxi also laughed.

Shen Yao didn't care at all. In fact, she had also noticed Bai Lanxi's problem. When Su Jiu mentioned her today, she couldn't help but want to comfort her.

"When Brother Rui is not around, I will find something I like to do. I still have school to complete! I also want to go to the interstellar space after graduation."

"When Brother Rui is free, he can accompany me. If he is not free, no one will bother me. Isn't this great?"

Bai Lanxi was still a little confused, so Shen Yao asked gently, "Xixi, are you anxious about getting married soon?"

They all knew that arrogance was Bai Lanxi's disguise. She was always innocent in front of familiar people. "I'm just a little confused. I've only seen Angus three times since we got engaged, and we haven't seen each other for almost a year."

"What about chatting?" Su Jiu was a little curious. Bai Lanxi didn't look like the kind of person who would make trouble for no reason!

Bai Lanxi shook her head, and now it was Su Jiu and Shen Yao's turn to be surprised.

"I'm just afraid that he'll be busy if I send it to him." Bai Lanxi smiled awkwardly. In fact, she was also afraid that Angus would find her annoying.

Su Jiu now knew what the problem was. With Angus's personality, he would probably remain silent if Bai Lanxi didn't take the initiative. However, when something happened, this man was really decisive and not ambiguous at all.

"Xixi, relationships need to be cultivated, like chatting, video chatting, sending small gifts, etc."

"I usually send Rui brother any delicious food I have, and I also choose clothes for him. Not only that, I send him whatever I can think of."

Glancing at Su Jiu, Shen Yao smiled meaningfully.

Su Jiu followed with a smile, “I just delivered dinner to His Highness.”

There's nothing to hide.

"Both parties need to move forward. If neither party holds back, it's very likely that one of them will back down in the end."

These words seemed to hit Bai Lanxi's heart, and a closed door seemed to be opened suddenly. Her eyes lit up, and the previous dejection and anxiety were gone forever.
