Before long, a tall, slender figure appeared next to Kanossen.

Xi Yun, who was waiting for Edvi's reply on the central star, was getting restless in his office, but he couldn't receive any messages himself.

Xi Yun calmed down and focused her attention on the research topic she had just received.

The research topic was about female insects losing control of their minds. Xi Yun logged onto the research website and found several relevant papers in the vast amount of information available on the topic.

Xi Yun glanced at it briefly and downloaded all the data into his personal computer.

I thought there wouldn't be much information on this topic, but I didn't expect there to be so much.

Looking at the massive download data on my computer, it's only down to one percent so far.

Xi Yun waited a while, then shrunk the page and continued browsing other topics on it.

He quickly discovered several papers on the research of alien beast physiques, and Xi Yun clicked to open them.

The paper was shorter than most papers, and Xi Yun read it quickly. When he saw something mentioned in the paper, an idea flashed through his mind.

Xi Yun continued scrolling down with the mouse.

"It has been discovered that red glaze has a significant impact on the physiology and behavior of strange beasts, which often replenish their energy through licking... When absorbing excessive elements from red glaze, the strange beasts will produce..."

Upon seeing this, Xi Yun immediately thought of the Zerg's physique and casually added it to his download list.

Bolton.

The authors of these papers are also the big names in scientific research in the later part of the novel he transmigrated into.

The book describes how Bolton led the research that uncovered the reason for the Zerg's beasts going berserk a few years ago.

Xi Yun looked at the first author listed on the homepage and fell into deep thought.

When Xi Yun got home, she saw the message that Ai Dewei had sent a dozen minutes earlier.

[Little Rose: Xi Yun, I might be back very late today. You should eat dinner first, don't wait for me.]

[Okay, I understand. I was driving and my personal terminal was on silent, so I didn't reply to your message right away. Are you alright? Have all the students been rescued?] Xi Yun typed for a while and then sent the message to Edvi.

But to his surprise, Edwin replied immediately. Looking at the message "The other party is typing..." displayed on the chat box, Xi Yun put himself on the sofa, but did not take his eyes off the personal computer.

[Little Rose: I'm not injured. However, a small number of students were not rescued.] Edvi replied to Xi Yun's message, looked up at the group of tired students on the starship, and turned to go to the control room.

Beyond the full-screen privacy screen lies a deep, starry sky.

Edwin looked at the control panel; their starship was about half an hour away from the central star.

After sending these students back to school, he still has to go to the military headquarters. With what happened today, he'll probably be busy until very late before he can go home.

At that moment, Xi Yun sent another message.

[Xi Yun: Remember to come home early when you're done with your work. I'll be waiting for you at home.]

At home?

Upon seeing this, a warm feeling welled up in Edwin's heart for some reason, instantly easing his tense nerves.

He edited and revised what he typed on his computer, and finally sent an "Mm".

Just as Edvy had predicted, the moment his feet touched the ground, the insect was busy running around non-stop, not even having time for dinner.

By the time Eddie returned to Qingshui Garden, it was already very late.

Xi Yun sat on the sofa in the living room with the lights on, waiting for Edvi to come home. Just as he finished heating up the food, some noises came from the front door.

Xi Yun went over and saw that it was indeed Edwin who had returned.

"Have you finished everything?"

"Hmm." Edvi watched as the other person took out slippers and placed them in front of him. He paused for a second, then put them on, and took off his coat as well. "Why aren't you asleep yet?"

The light from the shoe cabinet was warm, and even the female insect's words seemed to carry a strangely gentle tone.

"It's still early." Xi Yun smiled, suppressing the budding desire in his heart, and asked, "Haven't eaten yet?"

Edvi shook his head honestly.

A hint of heartache flashed in Xi Yun's eyes, but she quickly smiled again: "I've just heated up the food. Eat first, then wash up and rest."

"Okay." Edvi hung up his coat, looked around, and then asked with a puzzled look, "Xi Yun, where's Xiao Jin?"

"Little Jin, it's already gone to rest." Xi Yun led Edvi to the dining table, a smile still on her face.

Neither he nor Edvy were home much today, so Xiao Jin decided to watch TV on his own. He was just annoyed by the melodramatic plot of the show where the male insect abused the female, so he went to the charging station early to calm down.

After dinner and washing up, the two big bugs went to bed. Xi Yun lay on the outside and Eddie slept on the inside.

After the lights were turned off, it was as if the room had been paused, and everything became quiet.

Edvi watched the male insect beside him drift off to sleep, and he too succumbed to exhaustion and fell asleep, his breathing gradually becoming calm.

Xi Yun, who was lying to the side pretending to be asleep, slowly turned over after confirming that Edwin was fast asleep. Edwin, who was still asleep, was holding onto her sleeve.

After admiring his partner's sleeping face for a moment, Xi Yun gently kissed his forehead and then went to sleep contentedly.

P.S.: Remember to get some rest early, my darlings! ( ﹡ˆoˆ﹡ )
