CHAPTER 334: CHAPTER 114 BEGINNING OF THE PRE-SERIES (PART 1)

[——Because therefore, scientific reasoning... In short, madam is right!

——If people don’t act for themselves, heaven and earth will destroy them. Our Majesty is acting for the overall interest of our Blue Star Empire, so we shouldn’t make harmful judgments about Your Majesty’s decisions.

——Actually, it was indeed the Four Great Empires that made the first move against our Blue Star Empire, also involving the Iron-eating Beast Empire, clearly trying to suppress us.

——Since the enemies are moving, we should also act accordingly!

——This move by Your Majesty is truly impressive. Initially, faced with the cold and harsh words from the Four Great Empires and other affiliated empires, he remained silent. During the subsequent interstellar grand ceremony meeting, he did not make any statements, which lowered the alertness of the Four Great Empires to its minimum, only then did they launch a series of policies with swift action.

——The Four Great Empires didn’t have time to react initially. Even if they formulated corresponding solutions after facing our Blue Star Empire’s policies, it was already too late to help.

——Summarizing the LS few statements, I can only say one word—awesome!

Seeing that the comments in the live stream were somewhat under control, Du Xixi felt slightly relieved. She then passed the plate with five firm rice balls to the center of the live stream, smiling lightly, "The outside storms can’t possibly be more appealing to you than the delicacies here, right?"

Du Xixi always disliked letting major events mix with her culinary creations. She believed food to be extremely pure, and neither the process of making it nor the tasting should be influenced by any external affairs.

After the live stream ended, Du Xixi brought a few warm rice balls to the living room. Today, Ke Lian was taking a day off at home. He was casually playing with the two kids on the floor, while Ke Xing was reading the Interstellar Morning News nearby.

"Where’s Miao Miao?" As soon as the rice balls were placed on the coffee table, Ke Xing and Ke Lian each took one out of curiosity and began eating. Although the glutinous rice hadn’t completely cooled and was slightly sticky, upon taking a large bite and experiencing the unique filling inside, Ke Lian and Ke Xing quickly overlooked this minor flaw.

The simple glutinous rice balls were stuffed with Du Xixi’s homemade fried dough sticks, previously pickled vegetables, and golden crispy fried eggs. Perhaps it was this novel way of eating that made Ke Lian and Ke Xing find them intriguingly delicious.

Ke Xing was so engrossed in eating that he didn’t even lift his head. However, Ke Lian managed to swallow the mouthful of rice ball he almost wanted to chew a bit more on and said to Du Xixi in a gentle voice, "Miao Miao went out to the Imperial Library, accompanied by a Mechanical Soldier."

Miao Miao loves reading. Whenever she has some free time, she immerses herself in a book. Although Du Xixi hasn’t carefully kept track of Miao Miao’s reading volume, the thick books on several bookshelves in the Ke Family’s study, regardless of genre or origin, have already been read by her.

Now, with no books left in the Ke Family she was interested in, Miao Miao set her sights on Blue Star Empire’s Imperial Library, which contains a diverse range of books far exceeding the decorative shelves of the Ke Family.

Du Xixi just nodded, assured that with a Mechanical Soldier protecting Miao Miao, nothing would happen. Previously, Du Xixi had instructed the Mechanical Soldiers that whenever Ke Xing and the others went out, some of them must accompany them for protection.

Although the Mechanical Soldiers are tasked with protecting Du Xixi, her orders are as crucial to them as those from Chen Yin, hence today’s outing for Miao Miao was accompanied by one of them protecting her.

Du Xixi ate one rice ball, and the remaining four were no big challenge for Ke Lian and Ke Xing, who both have hearty appetites.

So before long, the three adults finished all five rice balls, relishing the rare leisurely morning.

Ke Xing didn’t go back to reading the Interstellar Morning News. Instead, he adjusted his position on the sofa to make himself more comfortable, and grabbing a throw pillow, he said warmly to Du Xixi, who was already nestled in Ke Lian’s arms, "Xixi, these glutinous rice balls are excellent. They’re easy to make and more interesting to eat than regular meals."

"Of course!" Du Xixi said proudly, raising an eyebrow. "The authentic rice balls are called ’ci fan’ balls. You can stuff them not only with fried dough sticks like I did but also add pork floss, assorted vegetables, sausages, etc. The specific ingredients can be adjusted according to personal preferences."
