The Comeback of the Cannon-Fodder Supporting Actress-Chapter 892 - 870: Interstellar Superstar 40

When Fang Xiaolian rushed in, she saw Cui Anlin crying.

She stood beside Cui Anlin, a bit at a loss, and couldn’t speak; surprisingly, she felt a little sad.

She always felt that she couldn’t stand Cui Anning, thinking this person was somewhat fake, no matter how she looked at her, she just didn’t feel right.

But today, she also felt like crying.

The scene of Cui Anning taking down the Flower Snake Worm on the battlefield was truly so tragic, tragic to the point where her heart couldn’t calm down for a long time.

Xiao Yuan passed by Cui Anlin and closed the lid of the treatment cabin. He saluted several healers and said, "Please ensure her safety."

"Alright."

The healer returned the salute, making a weighty promise.

Xiao Yuan turned and walked out.

He brushed past Xiao Gen, who asked eagerly, "How is Ms. Cui?"

Xiao Yuan looked seriously at Xiao Gen, "I want to ask you to protect her for a few days and ensure her safety before I return."

Xiao Gen was stunned for a moment, then nodded heavily, "I understand; I’ll definitely protect her. If she dies, I’ll owe her my life."

Xiao Gen swore by his life, which made Xiao Yuan pause for a moment.

Xiao Gen forced a smile, "I am a soldier of the Alliance. Ms. Cui fought the Insect Clan alongside us, so she is my comrade. I would guard any comrade with my life."

Xiao Yuan nodded, "Thank you."

He dashed away.

Soon, several soldiers came to Xiao Gen and said, "Marshal Xiao left on a small spaceship."

Xiao Gen frowned, "What is he doing? Is there a navigation system on it? Check the route for me."

Saying this, Xiao Gen walked toward the medical room.

Soon, the route was determined.

"General, Marshal Xiao went to Empress Star."

Hearing this, Xiao Gen turned around to run but then stopped after recalling Xiao Yuan’s words.

He went in, looked at Anning through the treatment cabin, and said hesitantly, "What should I do? He’s going there to die, he..."

"What’s wrong?"

Cui Anlin asked Xiao Gen.

Xiao Gen said, "My brother went to Empress Star."

Cui Anlin then realized what Xiao Yuan went to do.

He was likely heading to Empress Star for the Star Grass found in the Insect Queen’s lair.

It is said that where the Insect Queen resides, Star Grass grows, and this grass could help restore spiritual power, with the effect of bringing the dead back.

Xiao Yuan must have gone looking for this grass.

"He is simply reckless."

Cui Anlin didn’t know what to say upon hearing this.

After all, Xiao Yuan ventured for Anning’s sake.

Fang Xiaolian froze for a moment.

Being a woman, she thought more carefully and emotionally.

Fang Xiaolian wondered why Marshal Xiao would risk his life for Anning.

She looked again at Anning lying in the treatment cabin; despite being pale and looking somewhat withered, she still appeared refined and beautiful. Thinking back on Anning’s cheerful appearance, she truly was unmatched in beauty.

With such exceptional beauty, having spent days and nights with Xiao Yuan, it’s likely impossible for him to not feel moved.

The biggest attack from the Insect Clan was thwarted, and the war ended. Soldiers who fought on the front line should now return to rest. Raya Star needs reconstruction, and new guards will arrive at the front line.

Anning, along with the treatment cabin, was transported onto a warship and sent back to Imperial Star.

Xiao Gen and Cui Anlin guarded her on the journey back.

Imperial Star had long received the news, and when the warship returned, the leader and government officials together welcomed the triumphant warriors.

Anning was sent back to The Cuis, along with the best healers from Imperial Star the leader sent.

Fang Xiaolian also returned.

She was warmly welcomed and, after returning, participated in several interviews and a variety show.

However, after the show, she announced her withdrawal from the entertainment industry; she no longer wanted to be a celebrity.

Indeed, Fang Xiaolian didn’t really enjoy acting from the bottom of her heart.

Her acting skills weren’t great either; she previously fought her way into showbiz to earn money.

She was vain and liked the feeling of being in the spotlight.

But after being on Raya Star for so long, watching the soldiers risk their lives on the front and working diligently to cook delicious food in the rear, she felt that continuing to be a celebrity left her feeling empty inside as if she couldn’t touch the ground.

Fang Xiaolian thought for a long time, realizing she liked the feeling of cooking the most, for others to scramble over her dishes, and seeing them smile happily while eating what she made, gave her immense satisfaction.

Fang Xiaolian withdrew from the entertainment world, wanting to open a private restaurant.

Now, Imperial Star has many transported Insect Clan members. Fang Xiaolian thought of acquiring two to cook.

She aims to specialize in cooking with the Insect Clan in the future.

After nearly a month, Fang Xiaolian’s private kitchen opened, attracting many to try her dishes on its grand opening.

Xiao Gen came, Cui Anlin came, and several outstanding men interested in Fang Xiaolian also came to support.

A month later, bad news arrived at Imperial Star.

Empress Star exploded, and the Insect Queen failed to escape and was killed.

When the news came, the Alliance was in an uproar.

After all, Xiao Yuan went to Empress Star; if even the Insect Queen didn’t make it out, what about Xiao Yuan? Was he still alive?

The Xiao Family was shrouded in gloom.

Countless people mourned for Xiao Yuan.

Just as everyone thought he must be dead, Xiao Yuan returned.

He piloted a damaged spaceship back to Imperial Star in a ragged state.

He immediately went to The Cuis upon returning and handed the Star Grass to the healers.

At the moment he gave the Star Grass to the healers, Xiao Yuan was relieved enough to pass out.

Two treatment cabins occupied a room, one with Anning and the other with Xiao Yuan.

Cui Zhengxun and Li Wanwan felt uneasy.

They worried about Anning and Xiao Yuan, fearing anything might happen to them.

Marshal Xiao and Mrs. Xiao came by every day to visit the duo.

Mrs. Xiao discreetly chatted with Li Wanwan, "Sis, I’ve never seen A Yuan care so much about someone; he risked everything for Anning. Once they wake up, let’s host a wedding for them."

What could Li Wanwan say?

What could she say?

People risked everything for Anning; how could she disagree?

She looked at Anning’s treatment cabin and said, "Let the kids decide; if they have no objections, I agree. I’ve realized how unpredictable life is; you don’t know when you’ll live or die. It’s all about living joyously when you can."

The Star Grass proved invaluable. After receiving it, the healers researched it and successfully made several potions, one for Anning and one for Xiao Yuan.

A week later, both woke up simultaneously.

Upon awakening, Xiao Yuan ignored how many people were in the room and who they were, pulling Anning into the adjacent room.

He locked the door and stared at Anning.

"I want to smack you."

The first words Xiao Yuan uttered were these, spoken with a very serious expression, "Do you know what you’re doing? What are you trying to prove? Yes, you feel obliged to protect the Alliance’s safety since you became a citizen, but did you consider what might happen to you? That was a Ninth-level Insect; you know better than I what that means; its combat power rivals the Dragon Clan. And with your cultivation, you dared to..."

He couldn’t continue speaking.

Looking at Anning, his eyes reddened, "The entire Alliance combined isn’t as important to me as you are; understand?"
