After browsing through the clothing store, the two zergs coincidentally chose to wear the same style of clothes when they came out. As for the clothes they took off, they were handed over to the delivery zergs in the store, who would deliver them to their spacecraft.
Because the morning’s events and trying on clothes took up a lot of time, by the time the two zergs finished, it was already noon, and it would be a bit late to go back and cook, so Zhou Yuan decided to eat out.
This large supermarket naturally included many chain restaurants. Zhou Yuan searched StarNet for recommendations and, based on their tastes, chose a well-known barbecue restaurant.
This restaurant was also famous in the capital city and could be considered a medium-sized hotspot.
Upon entering, almost all the tables were occupied, and the lively chatter filled the air like a breeze.
Near the front desk, several female zergs were placing orders. This restaurant not only sold cooked dishes but also had a self-service barbecue section.
Some female zergs would specifically bring male zergs here to showcase their cooking skills.
The female zergs who were currently placing orders were probably military academy students, with semi-short hair. They were discussing whether to order from the self-service section so they could show off their cooking skills to any male zergs they liked in the future.
They were chatting enthusiastically when they saw Zhou Yuan pushing Asta in.
The first female zerg to see them took a sharp breath and immediately stood up straight, performing a standard military salute as he exclaimed, “Greetings, Marshal! Greetings, Your Excellency!”
With this greeting, the previously lively discussion instantly disappeared, replaced by several slightly naive voices one after another:
“Greetings, Marshal! Greetings, Your Excellency!”
Zhou Yuan was taken aback for a moment before he said, “Hello.”
Asta, on the other hand, remained quite cold. “Hmm.”
Asta had made speeches at several military academies and was the idol of many military academy students. Seeing Asta now, this group of military academy students felt like they were at a star-studded event and couldn’t contain their excitement.
Among them, a military female with bangs, looking somewhat youthful, said, “Your Excellency, Marshal, are you also here to eat? We haven’t decided yet. Why don’t you go ahead?”
After speaking, the other military females, who had been discreetly sizing them up, hastily agreed, “Yes, yes, we haven’t decided how long we’ll discuss. Your Excellency, Marshal, you go ahead and choose!”

One military female excitedly asked, “Your Excellency, is what you said true?”
“Of course.” Zhou Yuan smiled and nodded.
“Wow!” The military academy students cheered happily and praised, “Thank you, Your Excellency, you’re the best male zerg we’ve ever seen!”
After speaking, the military females obediently stepped aside to let Zhou Yuan push Asta toward the front desk.
The sub-female at the front desk had been trying to sneak a peek at Zhou Yuan and the others through the military academy students’ cover. Now that he saw them, he quickly scanned them up and down, revealing an expression that said, “Wow, Your Excellency really spoils the Marshal. How lucky.”
Then he quickly composed himself and put on a professional smile, asking, “Your Excellency, Marshal, would you like to dine in the hall or in a private room? Self-service or à la carte?”
His speed could be compared to a quick change in Peking Opera.
Zhou Yuan had no intention of dining in the hall; it was too noisy, and neither he nor Asta liked it. He said, “We’d like a private room, with self-service. Please wait a moment; I’ll order some cooked dishes as well.”
After saying this, he estimated the time and ordered a few cooked dishes.
The front desk staff moved quickly. By the time Zhou Yuan had finished ordering the cooked dishes, they had already arranged a private room for them and handed the room card to Zhou Yuan.
Zhou Yuan took the room card and showed it to the military academy students, saying, “Room 46 on the 2nd floor. Feel free to drop by.”
The military academy students cheered, “Yay! Thank you, Your Excellency!”
—
After bidding farewell to the military academy students, Zhou Yuan followed the front desk’s guidance and entered the elevator, then proceeded to Room 46.
The self-service barbecue grill in Room 46 was already heated up, with a plate of fresh beef slices beside it.
Asta looked at the table hesitantly and said, “Lord, should I grill? ”
“No, no, no, it’s okay, I’ll do it,” Zhou Yuan quickly refused.
Zhou Yuan was afraid that if Asta did it, he might end up setting the restaurant on fire.
“Okay.” Asta’s eyelids drooped slightly, his lips pressed together, looking somewhat disappointed.
Zhou Yuan couldn’t help but reach out and ruffle Asta’s hair. The female’s hair was very smooth, and touching it felt great, so Zhou Yuan couldn’t help but do it again.
Zhou Yuan said, “Good boy, after we have time, I’ll teach you how to cook.”
Asta’s disappointment disappeared completely at this point, his neck stiff, and a faint blush appeared on his face. “Hmm.”
This sound was extremely light, like a soft hum.
Over the past few days, Zhou Yuan had learned how easily Asta could become shy. He smiled and playfully ruffled Asta’s hair again. Seeing the blush hidden in his hair, he stopped teasing him.
The two zergs sat down, and Zhou Yuan tried the barbecue grill. When the temperature was about right, he put the beef on to grill.
Next to the barbecue, there were condiment bottles for self-mixing dipping sauce. While the meat was grilling, Zhou Yuan helped mix two plates of dipping sauce.
When the meat was ready one after another, the cooked dishes Zhou Yuan ordered also arrived.
Zhou Yuan tasted a bite and found that the food here was indeed good, better than the one they had yesterday, and there was more of it.
The two sat quietly eating for a while when they heard faint sounds from outside the door.
Outside the door,
Several military academy students were pushing each other, trying to get the other to knock on the door.
One of the darker-skinned sub-females said to a military female with short hair and wearing a tight black sweater, “Dek, didn’t you say you’re the bravest among us? You dared to steal the instructor’s underwear. It’s your turn!”
Dek’s expression tightened. “Can an instructor be compared to His Excellency the Marshal? You’re still a fanatical fan of the Marshal, why don’t you go?”
The dark-skinned female, Jueke, rubbed his nose and tried to make up for it. “Hey, I’m just… with His Excellency Dixia here… I dare not.”
Dek looked at Karl, who had bangs and looked somewhat youthful, and said, “Karl, you’re the leader among us and the one who admires the Marshal the most. The leader should take the lead. You go!”
Karl smiled awkwardly. “Actually… I dare not either…”
Jueke was annoyed. “You guys are all wimps! If no one dares to knock on the door, we won’t be able to get a photo or autograph with the Marshal. This chance encounter will be wasted!”
When Zhou Yuan opened the door, he heard this sentence.
The three military females were chatting happily and didn’t notice that Zhou Yuan had already opened the door, so he cleared his throat and suppressed a smile as he said, “You don’t have to worry about it. Come on in.”
This sentence was like a thunderbolt to the several military academy students. All the zergs couldn’t help but tremble, and Jueke was almost scared enough to jump.
After reacting, the military females collectively turned around and looked at Zhou Yuan, stuttering, “Y-Your, Your, Your, Your…”
They looked like three roosters crowing.
Zhou Yuan really couldn’t help but laugh this time. He turned back to Asta and said, “Haha, Asta, take a look too. Hahaha.”
With a slight sound of the wheelchair, Asta popped his head out from Zhou Yuan’s waist.
The military academy students:…
The three military females collectively felt like their hearts were breaking.
