CHAPTER 126: CHAPTER 44 FEEDBACK FROM IRON-EATING BEAST_3

Speaking of livestreaming, Du Xixi suddenly remembered that she had temporarily turned off notifications on her Light Computer to take good care of Ke Lian. It had been so long since her last livestream, she feared all her fans might have left by now.

Du Xixi hurriedly turned on her Light Computer, logging onto her livestream page. She initially thought her number of fans had fallen to zero. To her surprise, after taking a closer look, it had actually increased several times since her last broadcast ended!

"Ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, ten thousand... a hundred thousand!" Du Xixi blinked, wanting to pinch herself, but Ke Lian quickly switched hands, so she ended up pinching his hand instead.

Du Xixi, not realizing she hadn’t pinched her own hand, pouted in confusion, "Am I dreaming? It doesn’t hurt at all..."

"Xixi..." Ke Lian smiled helplessly, "Why don’t you take a look at whose hand you pinched first?"

Ke Lian thought that Du Xixi’s cute and innocent look was simply adorable, so he couldn’t help but present his reddened hand in front of her and leaned closer to whisper in her ear, "Look, you pinched it red!"

Du Xixi’s grip was strong, and Ke Lian was glad he had switched hands. Even his rough skin turned red, and he feared if Du Xixi pinched her own hand like this, it would surely get swollen.

Realizing that the texture of the flesh she pinched didn’t seem right, Du Xixi embarrassedly took Ke Lian’s arm to massage it, giggling, "I just wasn’t paying attention!"

"Seems like your livestream is doing quite well?" Ke Lian helplessly put his arm around Du Xixi’s shoulder, leaning casually on the hospital bed for a chat, "It’s just your streamer name..."

2X? What kind of streamer name is that? Ke Lian shook his head, thinking his little wife was far too careless with names. He completely forgot that when he needed a code name for a mission, he chose "DL" just as carelessly.

Du Xixi wasn’t pleased, pinching Ke Lian’s soft earlobe and pretending to apply pressure, "What, doesn’t it sound good?"

Seeing Du Xixi narrowing her eyes dangerously, Ke Lian sensed trouble and quickly waved his hand, pleading, "How could it be! 2X is definitely the best-sounding streamer name in the world! Absolutely amazing!"

Du Xixi let out a coquettish hum, feeling that Ke Lian’s survival instincts were growing stronger by the day. But she wasn’t truly angry; his begging was enough to let the matter slide.

Just as the couple was playfully teasing each other, a video call request appeared projected in mid-air on the Light Computer—it was from the Iron-eating Beast Empire’s Iron-eating Beast.

While still on CD-0329 Star, Du Xixi had asked the Rob to send some fresh bamboo and bamboo shoots to the Iron-eating Beast Empire. But after not receiving a response for a long time, and with the incident involving Ke Lian and Mo Feng happening later, Du Xixi had truly forgotten about it.

Presumably, the Iron-eating Beast was contacting her about the bamboo and bamboo shoots?

"You know the Emperor of the Iron-eating Beast Empire?" Ke Lian, unaware that pandas existed on Blue Star, naturally didn’t know how much of a "fanatic" Du Xixi was upon meeting the Iron-eating Beast. So he watched calmly as Du Xixi accepted the video call.

"Hello, Madam... Oh, the Marshal is here too!" The Iron-eating Beast appeared as usual, with several little furry balls hanging from its black and white fur, smiling with a naive expression, "I came today for the bamboo and bamboo shoots sent by your Honorable Rob earlier."

The Iron-eating Beast assumed Du Xixi was alone, since their previous video calls were just with her, as Marshal Ke Lian seemed to be on the battlefield. He hadn’t expected to meet the Marshal this time.

But upon seeing the Marshal’s sickly appearance, wearing hospital clothes, combined with the recent "traitor" incident buzzing about on the Star Network, the Iron-eating Beast began to understand the situation.

Still, the Iron-eating Beast wasn’t contacting Du Xixi to discuss Ke Lian’s matters. After a few more glances of admiration at Ke Lian, he turned his attention to the smiling Du Xixi and said, "Thank you for sending the bamboo and bamboo shoots. I was delayed by some matters and only just now tasted these delicious foods."

It had been about a few dozen days since the bamboo and bamboo shoots were sent, how could they still be edible?

Du Xixi was initially puzzled, then remembered that the Star Era’s package delivery had special processing similar to a space button, thinking that they might have remained fresh until then.

"As long as you like them. Do they keep you full?" Du Xixi, facing an Iron-eating Beast with a familiar appearance, always acted very warmly, asking questions without formalities, directly voicing whatever she wondered about.

The Iron-eating Beast decidedly liked Du Xixi’s straightforwardness, smiling back at her, casually placing a small Iron-eating Beast that had climbed onto its head onto the ground, "Doesn’t it ever! I only ate three bamboo sticks, and it was as filling as a piece of low-quality metal!"

Du Xixi had specifically looked into the eating habits of iron-eating beasts, understanding that an adult iron-eating beast like the Iron-eating Beast would typically consume ten pieces of low-grade metal per meal, having three to four meals a day, which translated to three to four dozen pieces of low-grade metal or about a hundred bamboo sticks.

Du Xixi chuckled, thinking that Star Era’s Iron-eating Beasts might be able to eat more than the pandas on Blue Star.
