Chapter 103: Side Story 4: Travel Wedding
The adjutant was swamped with work.
The convention was being implemented step by step, and preliminary results were already being seen, but there were still an endless stream of trivial problems that they needed to solve.
He had already been working overtime with the secretary-general for three consecutive days.
And Dr. Li was waiting every day for the Marshal’s boyfriend’s account to update with an audio to continue her research.
Everyone was busy, except—
The adjutant once again passed by the Marshal’s empty office and secretly gritted his teeth. Could he anonymously report that the Marshal had been absent from work for half a month!
Although it was a normal marriage leave, he hadn’t rested that long when he had gotten married back then!
·
The wedding process was complicated and trivial.
The little merman and the silver Jiaoren were not people who liked crowds.
After they had finished the procedures at the Imperial Political Bureau on the capital star, Deng Xi curiously held their certificates and touched them again and again. “Is this little book the proof that humans are mates?”
Si Jisheng replied with a sound.
The staff member was in a daze and pinched himself. After confirming that it was not an illusion, he suppressed his excited emotions. After he had finished serving their Marshal, he watched as the man with cold eyes walked to the side of the waiting youth and asked something in a low voice.
Soon, he took the other’s hand and, after giving him a slight nod, turned and left.
They had chosen a travel wedding, passing through more than a dozen galaxies of various sizes. It was the first time Deng Xi had known that the scenery on land was as beautiful as the ocean.
There was a transparent French window on the private flying ship. Deng Xi had recently taken a liking to this little corner. He had instructed the robot butler to place his favorite single-person shell sofa here. He would sink into the soft core and, through the window, look at the magnificent nebula outside the flying ship.
Specks of stars were scattered in the smoky pink nebula. Every time they passed through a galaxy, the color of the nebula would change, weaving a myriad of fantastic scenes, which were strangely beautiful.
So above the sky, there was such a beautiful sky.
The little merman thought cluelessly.
He was not enough by himself. He had to pull the little mute to sit with him and watch.
He had mischievously chosen a small sofa that could only seat one person, pushed the little mute to sit in it first, and then sat on the little mute’s body, sinking into the man’s arms.
Although Si Jisheng was not in the military, he could not withstand the adjutant’s constant bombardment. He would report the progress of the affairs to him every day, under the pretext of letting the Marshal know the implementation process of the convention.
But to prevent the adjutant from making a mistake, Si Jisheng would also spare a little time every day to look at the government affairs that the military had uploaded to him.
The camera that was flying with them would dutifully take pictures at the agreed time.
With a very light “click.”
The brilliant light of the nebula was reflected on the little merman’s body. In the dim light, he was yawning and recording a song on his comm. He would fall asleep after humming for a short while.
At this time, Si Jisheng would stop his work and carry him back to bed.
A song would usually take several days to record, and by then, Deng Xi would have already forgotten the inspiration and melody of that time.
The flying ship finally stopped on a white planet.
This was a planet that had been frozen. It was snowing all year round. The icebergs were rugged, and the lakes were frozen, like the Milky Way winding for a thousand miles.
Deng Xi was wearing thick clothes and a white, fluffy woolen hat. His upper body was a soft, light blue sweater, and his golden hair was draped behind him. Although the mechanical device on his clothes was constantly emitting heat, he still felt a little cold and covered the lower half of his face with his hand, letting out a small breath of hot air.
The man in the black coat bent down and, with his head lowered, checked if the oxygen patch behind Deng Xi’s ear was properly worn. Si Jisheng then turned up the heat of the thermal device on Deng Xi’s clothes a little and asked in a low voice, “Are you still cold?”
Deng Xi shook his head, and his blue eyes were sparkling as he looked outside. “So beautiful. What is this?”
He extended his hand and caught the snowflakes that were dancing in the air.
Si Jisheng said concisely, “Snow.”
The planet where the little merman lived was a constant temperature star. The surface of the sea would sometimes freeze because of the overly low temperature, but he had never seen a scene of snow.
Deng Xi carefully got off the flying ship. His white snow boots sank into the thick snow, and it was a little difficult to walk. But soon, the little merman was running on this white planet, and then with a “splat,” in Si Jisheng’s high-up line of sight, the small figure in the snow, because he had run too fast, had fallen into the snow.
He deftly jumped off the flying ship and strode over. Before he could squat down to check, he was pulled into the snow by the youth who had turned over, and his silver eyes were even stained with snowflakes.
Deng Xi’s eyelids curved. “It’s so cold, Little Mute.”
The little merman raised his hand and hugged the silver Jiaoren’s neck. “A kiss and it won’t be cold anymore.”
Si Jisheng half-knelt in the snow, covering Deng Xi below him. “Come here.”
Deng Xi raised his waist.
They shared a long kiss in a sea of white.
“Click—”
It was recorded in the photo album.
·
They stayed on the snow star for a few days, and the flying ship set sail again. Of course, on the way, they passed by a planet that was all fiery red.
“This planet is the thermal energy star of this galaxy. Its energy is extremely chaotic, and there are countless volcanic eruptions all year round. It is not suitable for living, but the government of this galaxy will use it to absorb energy,” Si Jisheng said in a low voice.
Deng Xi tried his best to remember.
The flying ship could not land and could only stop outside a safe range. This planet was strangely large. Even though they were outside the atmosphere, they could still clearly see the spectacular volcanic eruption above with their naked eyes.
The little merman was a little scared and shrank back.
So the flying ship quickly passed by this planet.
The next stop was a very famous travel star in the Empire. Every year, countless couples would come here for a seven-day trip after their wedding.

《Marshal Skips Work for Honeymoon, What Do You Think?》
[Attached picture ×1]
The background of the picture was a street corner of a castle town. A man in a black coat was holding a youth’s hand, bending down, and asking a little girl who was selling flowers in a low voice.
[Everyone knows what happens next. Our Xixi was holding that bouquet of flowers, so happy he was about to jump up. He gave the Marshal a big “smack” on the face. Who was so jealous, I won’t say.]
Replies—
[I’m so jealous. Wife, kiss me, sob, sob, sob.]
[Where is this? The color scheme of this town’s buildings is so dreamlike. There’s also a very tall Ferris wheel in the distance in the picture.]
[Upstairs, this is the travel star in the X galaxy, right? My boyfriend took me there before.]
[How many places have they been to? How can they be met and photographed by people every day?]
[Before this post is deleted, I’ve reported it. The Marshal is skipping work.]
