Sorry, My Interstellar Fleet Only Recruits Women

Outside the Chief Engineer's Office

The angel assistant paced back and forth anxiously.

What she was anxious about was not a matter concerning the angel race.

It was about the chief engineer, not the chief engineer.

She knew about the angel rebellion.

This includes all the Angels within the Falcon Dragon, and even those within the Falcon Dragon who are associated with those rebellious races.

Lilith immediately issued a statement saying that it would not pursue any related responsibilities based on race, bloodline, or other reasons.

Others might also have some concerns.

But this angel, who is wholeheartedly devoted to interstellar industry, is very simple-minded.

Since the top management of the JF-17 has said so.

That must be the truth.

Then just do your job honestly.

However, she is very anxious about something right now.

Half an hour earlier, she had received an emergency order: Emperor Xiaolong had delivered a national address.

She planned to inform Chief Engineer Anne about this.

It turned out that Chief Engineer Anne was currently conducting a very important study, and had locked herself in her office with access restrictions.

No one can enter her office without her permission.

Even communication was blocked.

This left her pacing anxiously at the doorway.

Sudden.

The angel assistant turned around and bumped into something.

Before she could even look, she immediately apologized, "I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry..."

But when she looked up and saw the person in front of her, she was dumbfounded.

Because this is a man!

Holy crap!

I actually saw a man in the JF-17.

wrong!

How could a JF-17 possibly have a man?!

Wait, why does this man look so familiar...?

So familiar!

This looks exactly like the Dragon Emperor.

At this moment, the angel assistant's highly intelligent mind seemed to short-circuit.

"Hello, are you Chief Engineer Annie's assistant?" Zhao Chen noticed the title on the engineer's name tag.

Don't underestimate your assistant.

It should be noted that Zhao Chen had already set a plan to cultivate the next generation before this.

They specifically assigned three chief engineers—Annie, Nana, and Elise the Spider Queen—along with other outstanding engineers, to train some capable and talented engineers.

Ideally, these engineers could be brought along.

Therefore, these chief engineer assistants are the future chief engineers of the JF-17 Thunder!

The angel assistant only realized what was happening when she heard the question.

She immediately bowed and said, "Yes! I am Chief Engineer Annie's first assistant, from the Angel race, and my name is Nicole."

"Greetings...Greetings...Greetings to His Majesty the Emperor."

"Don't be nervous, I'm just here to take a look."

"Chief Engineer Annie is inside, right?" Zhao Chen pointed behind Nicole, the angelic assistant.

Yes, yes.

However, Chief Engineer Anne was conducting research and setting access restrictions for the office, preventing outsiders from accessing the premises...” Nicole’s angel assistant was speaking.

Zhao Chen had already walked past her.

The next second, the previously sealed office door was suddenly opened.

Nicole's angel assistant widened her eyes.

But she soon understood.

Who is this?!

This is the Dragon Emperor!

The person with the highest authority within the Dragon Empire.

There is no place he cannot enter.

When Zhao Chen entered the office, he saw a somewhat messy and dimly lit environment.

In addition to countless holographic displays, there are also many instruments and equipment, and even raw material samples, etc.

If you didn't know better, you'd think this was a general store.

Who is it?

I already said it wouldn't happen without my permission.

Nobody is allowed in!

Perhaps it was because of a ray of light that suddenly shone into the dim environment.

It startled the little creature that was lying among a pile of things.

It poked its head out.

The next second, the owner of that head froze.

Then, before the two could speak...

Tears welled up uncontrollably from the two large, watery eyes on that head.

It just won't stop.

"You're so excited to see me?"

"You cried?" Zhao Chen walked up to Annie with a grin.

He had heard about Anne's condition over the past six months.

Anne, accompanied by a large number of assistants, was able to maintain a basic diet and did not lose weight.

However, his mental state was completely different from before.

However, now, that familiar aura emanating from her seems to be gradually being awakened.

The next second.

Annie jumped off the chair, sat on the floor, and started wailing while hugging Zhao Chen's leg: "Waaaaah...waaaah...you...you...where did you go...?"

Do you know... do you know... do you know... how I've spent the past six months...?

Waaaaah...

I...I...I thought you were dead...

You're alive... why didn't you come back sooner...

I...I...baby waaaaah..."

Anne burst into tears.

This situation left Zhao Chen at a loss for what to do for a while.

Zhao Chen looked somewhat awkwardly at the group of technical engineers gathered at the door.

This scene looks like it's from a scumbag who abandoned his wife and children and then came back.

"Um... um... could you please stop crying for a moment?" Zhao Chen tried to pull Annie, who was clinging to his leg, up.

But at this moment, Annie was like a sloth, no matter how Zhao Chen pulled, he couldn't pull her down.

Furthermore, she didn't listen to anything Zhao Chen said at all, and just kept crying.

The crying was incredibly pitiful.

In the end, Zhao Chen realized he couldn't stop Annie from crying.

He came up with an idea and said, "Don't cry yet, I'll treat you to something delicious."

The crying stopped abruptly.

Annie looked up, her big, watery eyes fixed on Zhao Chen: "Then I want to eat the best, the most expensive!"

"Fine, fine, order whatever you want." Zhao Chen said, both amused and exasperated.

This girl is still exactly the same as before.

“I have one more condition!” Annie suddenly thought of something, staring intently at Zhao Chen, her gaze as if she were dealing with some class enemy.

"What?"

"In the past six months, I have been working overtime and giving up my vacation."

"You have to make it up to me!" Anne said.

Zhao Chen couldn't help but chuckle, rubbing his chin: "But, it seems like someone is working overtime voluntarily."

They must have voluntarily given up their vacation.

Upon hearing this, Annie suddenly looked aggrieved, and the little pearls began to fall continuously.

Zhao Chen stopped trying to scare the girl.

"Alright, alright."

You've really worked hard lately. We'll give you a few days off so you can get some rest.

However, making up for all the vacation days taken in the previous six months might be a bit troublesome.

You know we have a lot going on right now.

Hearing Zhao Chen say this, Annie's face showed both happiness and disappointment.

"However, those vacations and overtime can be converted into other rewards."

"How about I give you a T6 Purple Gold Eden-class starship after you retire?" Zhao Chen said with a smile.

Purple Gold Eden-class starship!

Anne's eyes instantly seemed to sparkle with gold.

The T6 Purple Gold Eden-class starship is currently the most advanced Eden-type starship in the Xiaolong Empire.

And all the food it produces is of superior quality.

Some of these ingredients are even extremely valuable, exceeding even premium grade and belonging to the top tier.

Placed on the interstellar market, they are delicacies that gourmets eagerly pursue.

Although, even someone like Annie, a top-tier expert in the JF-17 series, can enjoy this a few times a month.

But to truly own a food paradise where she can indulge herself without restraint, that is Annie's real dream!

Anne no longer looked down on those old silver or golden Edens.

"It's a promise!" Annie said, extending one hand in a pinky promise gesture: "Pinky promise!"

This girl, apart from being very good at building starships, is really just like a little kid in every other aspect.

“Okay, I’ll pinky swear with you.” Zhao Chen stretched out his hand and pinky swear with Annie.

"Pinky promise, forever and ever."

Just as Zhao Chen was about to let go, Annie held on tightly, even tightening her grip on the arm that was already wrapped around Zhao Chen's thigh.

"You also have to promise Annie one more thing."

No!

"You can't just die like that!"

Zhao Chen was stunned for a moment, and his eyes welled up with tears.

With his free hand, he patted Annie's head: "Silly child, how could I die?"

I'm that strong!

"Promise me!" Annie looked stubbornly at Zhao Chen.

"Okay, okay, I promise you."

"Let's pinky swear." Zhao Chen pinky swear with Annie again.

This time, Zhao Chen sensed that Annie's attitude was very serious.

Just after they made the pinky promise, Chief Engineer Nana and Chief Engineer Elise the Spider Queen arrived after receiving the notification.

When Chief Engineer Nana saw her sister clinging to the Emperor's trouser leg, a dark expression immediately appeared on her face.

She immediately grabbed her sister's ear and said, "What kind of behavior is this!"

Sister, look at the state you've become!

Looking at the familiar scene.

Zhao Chen felt a warm glow inside.

Okay, okay.

Everyone is here now.

Let's find a place to have a meeting.

"Let's discuss matters related to our Xiaolong Industry. After all, it's been more than half a year, and there are many aspects I need to understand." Zhao Chen looked at the three chief engineers.

Neither Chief Engineer Nana nor Chief Engineer Elise the Spider Queen had any objections.

Chief Engineer Anne immediately raised her hand: "I'll decide on the meeting place."

...

Looking at the steaming hot pot in front of me.

Chief Engineer Nana, her face dark, looked at her sister who was frantically ordering food beside her and said, "You're having a meeting here?"

Anne nodded and pointed around: "Look how great it is to have a meeting here."

There's a big table, right?

The space is large, and it's a private room; all the service is provided by robots.

There is also a ventilation system to ensure there are no odors.

In addition, there are clear broth hot pot bases, mushroom broth hot pot bases, sauerkraut hot pot bases, and butter hot pot bases.

Besides hot pot, you can order all sorts of food here, including ice cream.

Looking at Chief Engineer Nana's increasingly dark expression.

Zhao Chen was absolutely certain that if Annie continued to say that, then Chief Engineer Nana would definitely use Annie as a scapegoat.

"This is also fine."

You haven't had a proper rest in a long time either.

"Consider this my treat for everyone. Order whatever you like." Zhao Chen stepped in to smooth things over.

At that moment, two small hands were presented to Zhao Chen, behind which was Annie's fawning smile.

Zhao Chen naturally understood what this girl meant.

He took out his ID card.

"Thank you, boss."

"The boss is generous." Annie's sweet voice rang out, and the next second she unceremoniously paid the exorbitant bill she had selected.

Then, reluctantly, she returned the identity card to Zhao Chen.

During this time, every brain cell in Annie's head was working overtime, wondering if there was any way to copy the salary account from the boss's ID card.

When that time comes, you can use the boss's account to pay for things when you go out to buy food or eat.

Hehehe...

However, given the high risk involved, Annie only dared to fantasize about such a risky thing.

"You two, do you have anything you'd like to order?" Zhao Chen asked, looking at Chief Engineer Nana and Spider Queen Elise.

Elise, the Spider Queen, shook her head.

Chief Engineer Nana glanced at Annie, who was already rubbing her hands together, looking like a warrior about to go to battle.

She smiled helplessly and said, "Do you think we still have some need?"

That's right.

Whenever I eat with Annie, there's basically no need to order anything.

Soon, the aroma of various hot pot ingredients filled the private room.

And amidst the clouds and mist, one can see 'the glint of swords'.

But there was only one person.

Annie is holding chopsticks in her right hand, a spoon in her left, and a straw in her mouth while drinking a beverage.

It didn't waste a single second.

When Chief Engineer Nana saw this, she couldn't help but turn her face away.

It's as if it's saying, "I have no blood relation with this person at all."

In order not to let Annie affect my mindset.

Chief Engineer Nana decided to change direction.

She took a few deep breaths ✧ NоvеIight ✧ (Original source) and looked at Zhao Chen: "Your Majesty, I'm here... Waaah..."

As Nana was speaking, a beef ball was stuffed into her mouth.

"Nana, hurry up and eat this meatball."

These meatballs are so delicious!

This is meat from a spot on the largest cow in the entire universe, a spot that's only about the size of a fist!

It was incredibly delicious.

I treated Sister Niu to a meal before.

Nana's words were cut off, but it must be said that the beef balls did taste really good.

But Nana glared at her older sister, annoyed, and said, "I can eat by myself!"

This made Annie, who was about to give another mutton meatball to Nana, stop what she was doing and say with a wronged look, "I just wanted to show you some concern, little sister."

Mom and Dad said that since you and your sister are both living away from home, they want me to take care of you.

Zhao Chen noticed that the veins on Chief Engineer Nana's arm were bulging.

Zhao Chen did not doubt that Annie and Nana's parents had said such instructions, but they certainly hadn't said them to Annie.

Okay.

"Annie, you eat first. Let's talk about some other things first," Zhao Chen said.

Annie pouted, looking a little disappointed, and muttered under her breath, "Talking about work in front of delicious food is a desecration of the food!"

Nana and Zhao Chen naturally wouldn't accept Annie's words.

Nana began to explain to Zhao Chen the current state of industrial development in the Dragon Empire, with Spider Queen Elise occasionally adding her own comments.

This allowed Zhao Chen to clearly understand what had happened during the six months he was away.

To what extent has the industrial development of the Dragon Empire reached?
