Global Era of Star trekking

"Silly girl, it's still raining!"

"Oh no..."

Ahead, witnessing this scene, both male and female students in the classroom let out a chorus of exclaims.

The girls were envious!

The boys were jealous!

Hearing the commotion, Shen Youran's cheeks flushed red, and she didn't dare to look back, only burying her face deeper into Song Chi's embrace.

As for Song Chi, he lowered his head to smell the faint fragrance coming from the girl, while with a faint smile, he turned his eyes to the front of the classroom and nodded gently to Zhou Huali on the podium.

At the same time, his brow flickered with ghost light, and Cang Qiong was summoned from the Ancestral Torch.

Once summoned, the warship began to expand rapidly and soon transformed into a twenty-meter-long Spectral Airship hovering over the academy.

A traction beam shone down from above, enveloping Song Chi and Shen Youran, who were tightly embracing each other, then they slowly rose into the air.

Seconds later, accompanied by a roar, Cang Qiong vanished from the sky above Jiangyuan First Torch Academy.

In the classroom of First Year Section Ten, the class was nearing its end, and he had no intention to continue teaching, meanwhile, he sighed softly to himself.

"The offspring of Dinghai Song family, this girl has quite the eye!"

As a teacher in an advanced academy, Zhou Huali's status was also not simple; although he was only a First Rank Torch Ship Captain, he had a Second Rank father and was considered part of the upper echelon of White Tower Floating Land. Therefore, he knew quite a bit about the Dinghai Song family.

...

Aboard Cang Qiong, Song Chi had already put down the umbrella, but showed no sign of letting go of the girl in his arms.

Shen Youran didn't resist. She lifted her gaze to meet Song Chi's, then said softly,

"Why did you suddenly come? You didn't tell me in advance!"

Song Chi lifted his hands from Shen Youran's waist to her fair cheeks and said,

"I missed you, so naturally I came."

Hearing these soft words of affection, the girl's bright, clear eyes had already turned into crescent moons, and with the deepening blush on her cheeks, she appeared incredibly enchanting.

Before she could reply, an eager Song Chi suddenly leaned down and pressed his lips onto the girl's pink ones.

...

In Baita City's Maple Leaf Park, as the most popular park on White Tower Floating Land, it was a beloved location for everyone in Baita, commoners and Torch Ship Captains alike.

Watching Shen Youran in front of him, who was different from her usual calm self and was loudly chasing after red fallen leaves in the maple forest, Song Chi felt all feelings of loneliness and anxiety due to his impending departure dissolve in that moment; his eyes were filled only with her.

After visiting Maple Leaf Park, they went to other places like Baita Lake and White Cloud Mountain in the eastern outskirts of the city district.

However, such happy moments always flew by quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was evening.

At a street stall in Jiangyuan City District, Shen Youran nibbled on skewers, only relaxing completely in front of Song Chi, doing what she wanted and eating what she craved.

But then, she suddenly asked a question that left Song Chi in silence for a long time.

"Are you leaving?"

Shen Youran wasn't foolish—quite the contrary, she was very clever. She could tell that today's Song Chi was somewhat off, joyful yet with a hint of sadness.

Joyful, as it came from the heart.

Sad, as it came from the heart, too.

After a long silence, Song Chi nodded.

"Yeah, not just me, my dad, my mom, my grandparents, everyone has to leave."

Shen Youran gently put down the skewer in her hand, bowed her head slightly, and wiped her palms and the corners of her mouth with a napkin.

However, despite her best efforts to hide her feelings, how could she deceive Song Chi, whose Guidance Technique had already advanced to First Rank?

```

But Song Chi didn't know how to comfort her right then. His departure this time wasn't like on Earth in the past; from White Tower Floating Land to Dinghai Star Domain, it was tens of thousands of light-years away.

He got up and sat next to Shen Youran, once again pulling her into his embrace.

And this gesture was like a catalyst. The girl who had been controlling her emotions as best she could suddenly nestled into his chest, sobbing softly.

Patting her back, Song Chi didn't speak, and just let the girl cry out loud.

After a while, he lifted Shen Youran's face, and while wiping away her tears, he whispered softly,

"There, if you keep crying, you won't look pretty anymore!"

Having cried, Shen Youran seemed to have adjusted her emotions. She took several deep breaths and then asked again,

"Where are you actually going?"

Hearing her voice a bit hoarse, Song Chi gathered a thread of Spectral Energy in his hand, gently kneading her fair neck until she was completely recovered, and at the same time he responded.

"Dinghai Star Domain. Grandfather was a separated member of the Dinghai Song Family. Now, we need to rejoin the family!"

Upon hearing the words "Dinghai Song Family," Shen Youran nodded lightly, repeatedly muttering them in her heart.

After a good deal of guidance and comfort from Song Chi, Shen Youran finally came around, and a smile returned to her face.

...

The next day, at the gate of Jiangyuan's First Torch Academy, Song Chi handed a wooden box to Shen Youran.

"These are forty bottles of Body Tempering Liquid, which have an effect in assisting the cultivation of the Guidance Technique. Keep this for now, and use it after you awaken. Remember, you can't use this in front of others, not even your close friends."

Shen Youran nodded lightly to show that she understood what Song Chi was saying.

Seeing this, Song Chi took out a second box, which was no longer made of wood, but jade.

"Open this jade box when you get back to the dormitory!"

After a good amount of advice from Song Chi, Shen Youran reluctantly headed for the academy's gate.

Only when her figure had completely disappeared through the school gates did Song Chi, also feeling downhearted, immediately summon the Cang Qiong and sped away.

What he didn't know was that after Shen Youran entered the school, her bright, translucent eyes reddened again, and her gaze showed a hint of determination that others would find hard to detect.

...

Baita City, Roaring Lion Courtyard.

Just back home, Song Chi ran into his father, Song Chao.

Having wrapped up all his affairs, the Song family members naturally all gathered in Baita City.

"You're back. How did it go, did that little girl get angry?"

Just like Chen Lixia, Song Chao had long regarded Shen Youran as the daughter-in-law he had chosen, so he cared a lot about this.

Song Chi nodded to indicate that nothing was wrong.

"That's good. Also, you have to show some spine and marry her soon."

Song Chi was a bit speechless. They hadn't even graduated yet. In this Interstellar Era, where Torch Ship Captains usually got married at sixty or seventy years old, wasn't it too early to be nudging him about marriage?

Seeing that he had given enough advice, Song Chao didn't continue on this topic. Instead, he changed the subject,

"Alright, go rest. We have to head to Baihe City tomorrow. It's time to deal with the Tros Family. But I don't know whether they really control the secret realm."

"Mhm!"

Back in his bedroom, Song Chi fell asleep immediately. He and Shen Youran had been snuggled up together for a long time the night before, and he'd barely slept.

Although they hadn't gone the last step, he, Song Chi, had the nerve to do everything that could be done, short of that last step. In the end, it was that girl who solved the problem with her hand.

PS: Well, good or bad, this romantic phase is coming to an end (I did try my best writing this, it took me four hours, incredibly difficult to write). A new chapter is about to start, and I hope my dear readers will continue to support this book and me, the author. Thanks and tears of gratitude!!!
