“All the goods on the order have been delivered,” the Female Officer said to Zhao Chen.
“Alright, thank you.”
After Lilith saw the Female Officer off, she returned to Zhao ✪ Nоvеlіgһt ✪ (Official version) Chen’s side, looking at the closed door behind them. She could even faintly hear the sounds of someone kicking the door, along with complaints and vibrations.
“That... are you really not going to get in touch with Miss Chu?” Lilith asked, “Her identity is quite extraordinary.”
“You know her identity?” Zhao Chen looked at Lilith.
Lilith raised her hand, and a holographic projection displayed the image of the golden ‘Chu’ crest from earlier.
“After I became your Adjutant, I generally familiarized myself with various intelligence about the Starlight Empire.
Among them was information about this Miss Chu.
Although there are no video records of Miss Chu online, based on those subtle clues, her identity can basically be determined,” Lilith said.
Zhao Chen’s steps, which were originally heading towards the T2 Iron Hammer-class Heavy Interstellar Industrial Ship, slowed down, signaling Lilith to continue.
“The Arctic Fox Galaxy, where we are located, is under the jurisdiction of the North Wind Star Sector. The North Wind Governor is Miss Chu Xuan’s maternal grandfather, holding the rank of Imperial Duke.
Additionally, the Chu He Governor, who governs one of the Starlight Empire’s eight Star Regions, is Miss Chu’s paternal grandfather, also holding the rank of Imperial Duke, and simultaneously serving as a Five-Star Marshal of the Empire!
Most importantly, this Miss Chu Xuan is Duke Chu He’s only granddaughter! She has always been doted upon.
The North Wind Governor loves this granddaughter even more than his own grandsons.
She can be called the apple of the eye of both Star Region Governors,” Lilith said with a serious expression.
Two Star Region Governors, who are this girl’s paternal grandfather and maternal grandfather, respectively.
This was enough to show how terrifying Chu Xuan’s background was, and it was no wonder the Black Fox Society didn't dare to act rashly, even daring to directly challenge the lord of the Arctic Fox Galaxy to come find her if he had the guts.
“You think I should make friends with her, right?” Zhao Chen said.
Lilith looked at the captain in confusion, not understanding what he meant. Wasn't it obvious?
“The more prominent her identity, the further away we should stay from her.
What we need to do now is develop discreetly. Although we have two Starships that are among the best in the T2-class, we are still very vulnerable when facing real enemies,” Zhao Chen said indifferently.
Actually, there was another reason: Zhao Chen didn't believe that a Duke’s granddaughter would suddenly be so enthusiastic towards him. Something unusual must be afoot.
Moreover, he had more and more secrets. Who knew what would happen if he got too close to such a person?
Naturally, the further away, the better.
“Understood,” Lilith responded.
“All the raw materials and supplies I ordered have arrived. The next task is to build the t2 black rhino-class interstellar heavy assault frigate before the end of the year,” Zhao Chen said, his eyes gleaming.
At this moment, if Chu Xuan, who was blocked outside the door, knew that her charm was not even comparable to a T2 Interstellar Frigate, she would probably be so angry that she would want to have a showdown with Zhao Chen.
“What’s wrong with this guy? Can’t he even tell my identity!
I invited him to dinner, and he actually didn’t give me face?” Chu Xuan put her hands on her hips, abandoning her previous solemn demeanor as a Female Officer, looking a bit flustered.
The Female Deputy beside her covered her mouth and chuckled softly, “Miss, are you perhaps falling for this gentleman?”
“Pfft, pfft, pfft, we’ve only met a few times. How could I possibly like him? And he’s a total straight man.
Me, like him? Unless my head gets hit by a Starship when I go out!” Chu Xuan rolled her eyes indignantly.
“Then why did you come all the way to Arctic Fox Starport? Was it really just to invite him to dinner? To get acquainted?” the Female Deputy asked suspiciously.
Chu Xuan calmed herself down, looking at the door as if she could see Zhao Chen’s figure inside.
“I had someone investigate the Starship named Blizzard Zero, and there were no records of it.
Even the other Aircraft Carrier Starship had no records.
I even expanded the search scope beyond the Starlight Empire, but still found no matching Starship types.”
Chu Xuan narrowed her eyes and said seriously, “In that case, there are only two possibilities.
One, he has a very secretive channel for purchasing Starships.
Two, these two Starships were not bought by him; he designed and built them himself!”
“He designed and built them himself? How is that possible? Although T2 Starships are only semi-military-class Starships, they are not something just anyone can design and manufacture,” the Female Deputy questioned this answer.
“I don’t believe it either, so I want to find out.
If it’s the former, we’ll use this channel to procure a batch of these incredibly powerful Starships.
If it’s the latter, then this is a talent. If he can be used by our Chu family, it will certainly enhance our Chu family’s strength.
The situation in the Starlight Empire is very complicated now. We must seize any opportunity to strengthen our Chu family.”
After saying this, Chu Xuan gave the Female Deputy a white eye: “You wouldn’t really think I’m big-chested and brainless, a love-struck fool who would throw herself at a man, would you?”
“I didn’t think that.” The Female Deputy shook her head repeatedly, but her gaze wasn’t as firm. Then she glanced at a certain area and muttered, “And it’s not really big-chested and brainless.”
Chu Xuan’s mouth twitched: “You little brat, you dare to tease me!”
“Reporting, Miss, there are communication requests from two Duke adults,” Xiao Song walked over at this moment, holographically projecting links to two communication requests.
“Hey, don’t answer!” Before Chu Xuan could finish, Xiao Song connected them.
Then, as if he didn’t see the Miss’s dagger-like gaze, he turned and left.
The Female Deputy also wisely walked away.
Chu Xuan covered her face, and soon two familiar voices, too familiar to be unfamiliar, echoed in her ears.
“My precious granddaughter, are you alright! I heard there was a Level 2 Universe Insectoid Nest near you, and you went into battle with thirty Starships?”
“Xuan! Are you hurt? I’ve already dispatched my fleet to support you!”
Two old men appeared in two separate video communication windows.
“Old man surnamed Zhu, I told you before not to let Chu Xuan go to your place. You swore to me that nothing would happen. Now look! Such a big thing has happened. ƒreewebɳovel.com
If anything happens to my granddaughter, I’ll rip your skull open!”
“Hey, you can’t say that. It’s because Xuan was afraid of being confined by you that she ran to me, her maternal grandfather.
And this time was a complete accident; I didn’t expect Interstellar Insectoids to appear.
But don’t worry, Xuan is very safe now, absolutely no problems!”
“Precious granddaughter, you should come back quickly. Even if you really want to go to the grassroots to command a fleet; our family has our own fleet, you want whichever one, we’ll go to that one.
If that doesn’t work, Grandpa’s fleet is yours to command! That flagship is a renowned T4 Interstellar Battleship! You like it a lot, don’t you? It’s yours!
I heard that when you’re with that old man, your personal Starship is just a T2 Starship!
That thing doesn’t even have a Star Shield. What if you encounter danger?”
“Although our North Wind Star Sector doesn’t have T4 Starships, we have T3 Aircraft Carrier Starships! The Interstellar Fighters flying everywhere, how cool does that look? And you don’t have to be on the front lines, it’s much safer than any Interstellar Battleship.
I’ll arrange it for Xuan right now. Tomorrow, our Xuan will be a captain!”
Chu Xuan looked as if she wished she were dead. She had run away precisely because she couldn’t stand the ‘doting’ of these two old men.
Now, she could only temporarily put aside Zhao Chen’s matter and first appease these two old men, promising them that she would go back to see them. freёwebnovel.com
Otherwise, there was no telling what they might do.
