The Marshal's Wife is Wild-Chapter 62 - 61 A Special Little Movie

Then he heard Zhao Qian exclaim excitedly, “Hey! If you know how to grill, you should have said so earlier. Here, take it, it’s all yours.”

Zhao Qian shoved the skewered Exotic Beast Meat he was holding all at once into Xu An’s hand.

Xu An took it, gave up on using the open fire Zhao Qian had started, and brought out the grill he had bought when he previously took on a mercenary task, inserting a small Energy Stone into it.

Then he cut the Exotic Beast Meat into smaller pieces, threaded them onto skewers, and placed them on the grill.

Once they started to sizzle and release their juices, he sprinkled on salt, pepper, and other seasonings, occasionally scoring the larger pieces of meat with a knife.

Soon, the first batch was ready. Zhao Qian tasted a piece and immediately gave Xu An a thumbs-up: “Not bad at all, you try some, too.”

In the end, Zhao Qian stuffed quite a bit into Xu An as well.

Finally, Zhao Qian patted Xu An on the shoulder, generously saying, “Let’s add each other on the cyber-brain. Next time I get Purified Meat, I’ll call you.”

The two added each other as friends, and Xu An felt that he couldn’t just eat so much Purified Meat for free, so he gave Zhao Qian two bottles of Energy Liquid.

After all, his sister said it wasn’t expensive, and he definitely couldn’t share the “Spirit Power Stabilizing Potion” unless it was absolutely necessary.

Zhao Qian accepted the Energy Liquid, thinking that this intern wasn’t too bad, someone he could look after more in the future.

The next day, the Legion’s soldiers and interns were divided into two groups; they took turns going out to hunt Star Beasts.

Zhao Qian was looking at the constantly updated Star Beast distribution map when someone pushed the door and entered.

Zhao Qian looked up: “Commander, what brings you here?”

“The southwest area’s deployment is done ahead of schedule; I came to see how you guys are doing,” Feng Lin said, flipping the hem of his marshal’s uniform and sitting down beside the table.

“Leading the interns from the First Military Academy, it won’t be quick,” Zhao Qian reported: “No rush, though; let them train and accumulate some real combat experience.”

Feng Lin nodded, not saying much else.

Noticing the two bottles of Energy Liquid on the table, he casually picked them up: “Go ahead and gain experience, I’ll take these two. I just ran out on my side, I’ll return them once the higher-ups send more.”

Zhao Qian: “…”

He’d been a soldier for over a decade; what experience did he need to accumulate? The ones needing the training were those clueless new recruits.

“Keep it if you want, no need to return them.”

Zhao Qian casually waved it off, unfazed by giving away two bottles of Energy Liquid.

He’d just go to the kitchen tomorrow to get some Purified Meat; who would want to drink that tasteless Energy Liquid?

Capital Star, Yuelan Bay

These past few days, Qu Tong had mostly stayed in her room.

Everyone in the manor was very kind, and Butler Chi never inquired about what she was doing in her room, and the other servants also didn’t enter the villa at random.

If there were deliveries, they would have robots send them to the front of her room.

Soon it was time for the academy to start.

Although she had special privileges and didn’t need to be tested or examined, she still needed to go register.

The Empress had initially planned to send someone to take her, but Qu Tong, finding it too conspicuous, declined directly.

Even though things on the Star Network had quieted down for a while, as someone who got in through the back door, it wouldn’t do to be so high-profile and attract more resentment.

The butler himself came over, driving the hover car to pick her up.

Qu Tong’s eyes twitched at the sight of the flashy pink hover car in front of her, “Doesn’t the family have a more modest means of transportation?”

“Indeed, madam,” replied the butler.

With a hint of perplexity in his heart, the butler drove the hover car away.

Hadn’t the Empress Dowager said that young ladies liked this style? It seemed the madam wasn’t a fan of such things?

Soon after, the butler returned with a black hover car.

Qu Tong: “…”

Black was indeed a discreet color, but the design was still very high-end.

Most importantly!

The emblem of the Canaan Empire’s Royal Family was so conspicuous on the hood!

Helpless, Qu Tong called for a cab on the star net.

But then…

What’s with this driver, big brother???

After traveling for about fifteen minutes, Qu Tong couldn’t take it anymore, “Big brother, ever since I got in the car you’ve been playing these Japanese adult videos, is that really appropriate?”

Qu Tong frowned, wondering if the drivers summoned on the star net were all so inconsistent in their conduct.

If it weren’t for the driver who hadn’t said a word or veered off course, she might very well have gone up there and taught this sick pervert a lesson.

It was truly beyond frustrating.

The driver glanced at Qu Tong and said, “Is that a Japanese adult video?”

“Take a good look for yourself, if that’s not a Japanese adult video then what is it?” Qu Tong pointed at the intertwined naked bodies on the screen, squinting her eyes.

Thankfully the camera angle was wide enough that details were not too clear.

The driver calmly stated, “That’s the surveillance from my home.”

Qu Tong: “Ah? This…”

This left Qu Tong at a loss for words.

Her anger extinguished in an instant, she even felt a bit of sympathy for this fellow.

Nonetheless, this was still not quite right.

“You could set your screen to privacy mode,” Qu Tong suggested.

The driver hesitated, then switched the screen to privacy mode and told Qu Tong, “I’ll waive the fee for this ride.”

Once in privacy mode, passengers couldn’t see the fare or map on the screen, but Qu Tong didn’t mind.

Qu Tong watched the driver proceed at a steady pace, not in a hurry at all, and could not help but admire his composure, “You’re quite steady, big brother.”

The driver gave Qu Tong a cool glance.

OK, she would shut her mouth.

Qu Tong, with a sense of good fortune, fully understood that big brother was in no mood for chit-chat.

Still some distance from school, Qu Tong took out a box of cherry tomatoes from her space and munched on them as she browsed the star net.

She unexpectedly came across a notice about the Qu Family’s farm, announcing a bumper harvest of Energy Fruits for the year.

“Sweetheart Farm,” Qu Tong murmured the name of the Qu Family farm, glancing at the cherry tomatoes in her hand.

Sweetheart Farm primarily grew tomatoes and tangerines.

She immediately placed an order for one of each.

Hearing Qu Tong’s mutterings, the driver threw a quick glance at the half box of cherry tomatoes left in her hand, then promptly looked away.

Twenty minutes later, the hover car arrived at the school’s entrance.

The driver called out to Qu Tong, wanting to add her on the brain network to refund her money.

Qu Tong wanted to say it wasn’t necessary, considering the driver’s already grim situation.

But the driver was stubborn, so they ended up connecting through the brain network, and after some back and forth, he insisted on refunding half the fare.
