You got your marriage certificate and then abandoned me? I'll feed the richest woman in the wor

The deep voice was carried away by the night wind high above the Cloud Top Manor.

But it was like a feather, landing precisely on Shen Wanzhou's heart.

It sent shivers down my spine.

She tilted her head back.

Following the direction Chen Yuan pointed, we looked towards the vast and boundless sea of ​​stars.

The stars twinkled like scattered diamonds on black velvet.

"Anniversary?"

Shen Wanzhou blinked her clear, peach-blossom eyes.

Her long eyelashes trembled slightly in the night breeze.

My mind involuntarily began to recall that sensational wedding of the century five years ago.

The night sky over Jianghai City was filled with a blue rose sea created by 80,000 drones.

Even the heads of state of dozens of countries sent congratulatory telegrams.

That spectacle has long since shattered the limits of human imagination.

Now, Chen Yuan is even pointing at the stars in the sky and asking her if she's ready?

"What...what wasteful thing have you done behind my back this time?"

She turned her head.

Two fair and delicate hands grabbed Chen Yuan's suit jacket.

Like a hoarding mouse that's so worried about its owner wasting money that it's stamping its feet in frustration.

"Let me tell you, I'm so tired of all those drone light shows these days."

Even if you booked all the screens in the country, I wouldn't be surprised.

Although he protested stubbornly.

But those bright, sparkling eyes were clearly filled with barely concealed anticipation and secret joy.

In these five years.

This man showered her with medicinal cuisine and doting affection on countless ordinary days.

It pieced together her sense of security, which had been shattered into pieces.

It was also completely covered with a thick layer of icing.

Chen Yuan looked at the seemingly contradictory little woman in his arms.

A low, husky laugh escaped his throat.

The vibrations in my chest were transmitted through the thin fabric.

"Drones? Those toys are so outdated."

He lowered his head.

The tip of his high, straight nose brushed lightly against Shen Wanzhou's smooth forehead.

His warm breath brushed against the stray hairs by her ear.

"This time, I'll show you something real."

Two weeks later, on the evening of the fifth anniversary.

A black, unmarked bulletproof helicopter.

It landed deep in the northwestern Gobi Desert, two thousand kilometers away from Jianghai City.

This is China's most secretive and highest-level private space launch center.

It is also the technological heart that Xingchen Venture Capital has secretly built over the past five years with an investment of trillions of yuan.

The helicopter rotors kicked up clouds of yellow sand.

Chen Yuan led Shen Wanzhou down the gangway.

As soon as we landed, a dry, hot wind carrying the rugged atmosphere unique to the Gobi Desert hit us.

Shen Wanzhou was wearing a neatly tailored white trench coat.

Despite having two children, she still maintains a youthful, slender figure.

She looked at the scene before her through her large, windproof sunglasses.

My breath caught in my throat for a moment.

One kilometer ahead of them.

A giant steel launch tower, hundreds of meters high, resembles a sharp sword piercing the sky.

It stands upright on the desolate Gobi Desert.

In the center of the tower.

It is surrounded by countless complex umbilical cables and fuel filling pipes.

It is a massive, heavy-lift launch vehicle with a cold, metallic sheen.

Even though they are so far apart.

The oppressive feeling of being a product of the pinnacle of human heavy industry.

It still made Shen Wanzhou's legs go weak.

She instinctively gripped Chen Yuan's large hand tightly.

Her fingernails dug into the man's broad palm.

"What...what is this?"

Her voice was weak, and even her tongue was trembling.

She thought Chen Yuan would at most take her to some desert camp to watch a meteor shower.

Who would have thought that this man would actually take her directly to the base of the rocket launch pad!

"A big toy."

Chen Yuan's tone was as calm as if he were picking out a potato at the market.

He gripped Shen Wanzhou's cold little hand tightly in return.

He took her hand and strode towards the blast-proof observation deck that resembled an underground fortress not far away.

The temperature inside the observation deck is a constant 24 degrees Celsius.

A single sheet of explosion-proof, high-transparency glass isolates the outside wind, sand, and the impending terrifying noise.

Their view, however, was completely unobstructed, directly facing that steel behemoth.

Inside the core control hall below the observation deck.

Hundreds of supercomputers are running at full speed.

The screen displayed a dense array of ballistic data and a countdown timer.

Those gathered here are all top aerospace scientists from all over the world who were poached by Star Ventures with sky-high annual salaries.

They were wearing matching white anti-static suits.

His expression was tense, and his fingers flew across the control panel.

Wang Kai stood in front of the main control screen.

His haute couture suit was already soaked with cold sweat.

The flesh on his chubby face trembled violently from excessive tension.

He was holding a military walkie-talkie in his hand, his palms covered in slippery sweat.

They saw Chen Yuan and Shen Wanzhou walk into the observation deck.

The fat man quickly wiped the sweat off his face with his sleeve.

Through the bulletproof glass, he gave Chen Yuan an "OK" sign.

Chen Yuan nodded slightly.

He walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and wrapped his arms around Shen Wanzhou's waist from behind.

He pulled her into his strong, warm embrace.

He gently rested his chin on her shoulder.

"Countdown, one minute."

In the hall, a synthesized mechanical female voice began to broadcast.

Shen Wanzhou's heart pounded wildly with the countdown numbers.

It almost popped out of my throat.

"Fifty seconds."

The umbilical cables on the launch tower began to detach one by one.

It produced a dull, metallic clanging sound.

White liquid oxygen vapor gushed out from the bottom of the rocket in large quantities, like a rolling fog.

"What...what exactly did you put on top of it?"

Shen Wanzhou swallowed a mouthful of dry saliva, her voice soft and trembling.

She stared intently at the steel behemoth that was about to take off.

You'll find out in a moment.

Chen Yuan's thin lips brushed against her earlobe, his voice low and husky, with a seductive magnetism.

"Ten, nine, eight..."

In the entire control room, only the sound of rapid breathing and the afterimage of typing remained.

Wang Kai stared intently at the screen, not daring to even blink.

"Three, two, one, ignition!"

boom--!!!

A deafening, terrifying roar, powerful enough to tear the heavens apart.

It exploded with a loud bang on the Gobi Desert.

Even through the thickened explosion-proof glass, the devastating sound was still clearly audible.

The ground of the observation deck still trembled violently.

Shen Wanzhou trembled with fright and instinctively buried her face in Chen Yuan's neck.

Chen Yuan's large hand firmly protected the back of her head.

He pressed her tightly against his chest.

Bottom of the rocket.

It spewed out a dazzling orange-red tail flame that stretched for tens of meters.

That intense heat was enough to melt steel.

It instantly baked the surrounding air until it was distorted and deformed.

The massive rocket slowly rose from the ground under the thrust of several thousand tons.

The speed is getting faster and faster.

It transformed into a sharp arrow trailing a long trail of fire, tearing through the deep blue night sky above.

It pierces straight into the vast and boundless depths of the universe.

Wang Kai slumped into the leather chair at the control panel.

The walkie-talkie in his hand fell to the ground with a "thud".

He looked up.

As he watched the tiny dot of light on the screen shrink, he wiped the cold sweat that was pouring down his forehead like a waterfall.

He personally supervised the loading of the payload onto the rocket.

That's not a commercial satellite or scientific research equipment at all.

Watching the dazzling flames from the rocket's tail, Wang Kai wiped his sweat and muttered, "Launching a rocket just for our wedding anniversary? Yuan-ge is taking our romance to outer space!"
