Chapter 1240: Returning to Xiuluosheng Star (2)

Star Alliance dining room.

This was a spacious and cozy room, with a white tablecloth spread over the long dining table.

Yingzhou sat at the head of the table, Mother Ying sat to his right, and Yingxin sat to his left.

The other primarchs took their seats in turn.

Luojia, Perturabo, Magnus, Jaghatai, Fulgrim, Leman Russ, Alpharius, and Omegon.

The dining table was filled with all kinds of delicacies, all carefully prepared by the chefs.

There was roasted beast meat, stews, fresh fruit, exquisite desserts, and the kind of small cookies that Yingxin loved most.

"Wow!"

Yingxin looked at the table full of food, her eyes lighting up.

"So sumptuous!"

Leman Russ had already picked up a piece of roasted meat and was eating it in big mouthfuls.

"Mmm... delicious... this meat... is so fragrant..."

Fulgrim was elegantly cutting the food on his plate, chewing and swallowing slowly with every bite.

"Leman, can you eat a bit slower? No one is going to snatch it from you."

Leman Russ swallowed a large mouthful of meat and chuckled.

"I'm hungry! I've been waiting all day!"

Magnus was flipping through a book while eating, his eyes never leaving the pages.

Alpharius and Omegon were secretly swapping food while they ate.

They were always like this; even though the food on their plates was exactly the same, they insisted on swapping to eat.

Mother Ying looked at these children, her eyes full of love.

"Xiaoxiner, eat more."

She picked up a piece of the meat Yingxin liked best and placed it on her plate.

Yingxin nodded obediently.

"Thank you, Grandmother!"

She took a bite, then said to Yingzhou.

"Uncle, this is delicious! You eat some too!"

She clumsily picked up a piece of meat, wanting to put it into Yingzhou's plate.

Yingzhou smiled and lowered his head, letting her put the meat into his plate.

"Thank you, Xiaoxiner."

Yingxin smiled happily and continued eating her meal.

Jaghatai watched this scene, his eyes full of emotion.

"Father, Xiaoxiner is truly becoming more and more sensible."

Yingzhou nodded.

"Indeed. It is all thanks to her grandmother's good teaching."

Mother Ying shook her head.

"It is not my teaching that is good, but these brothers who lead her well. Xiaoxiner is with them every day, and through constant influence, she naturally becomes sensible."

Leman Russ chuckled.

"That goes without saying! I teach her how to fight! In the future, whoever dares to bully her, just punch them straight away!"

Fulgrim elegantly rolled his eyes.

"Leman, little sister is a girl, how can she learn to fight?"

"What's wrong with being a girl?"

Leman Russ was unconvinced.

"Girls can fight too! I've seen many female warriors who are even more formidable than men!"

Fulgrim shook his head.

"That is not the point. The point is, little sister should be learning elegance, etiquette, and art, not fighting."

Leman Russ curled his lip.

"Pfft, how boring."

Yingxin listened to their argument and laughed until she was doubled over.

"Stop arguing! I'll learn everything! I'll learn to fight, and I'll learn elegance too!"

Everyone was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

"Xiaoxiner is so smart!"

Alpharius said.

"Learning everything, mastering everything!"

Omegon added.

Yingxin felt a bit shy from the praise and hid in Yingzhou's arms.

"Uncle, they are laughing at me."

Yingzhou smiled and hugged her.

"They aren't laughing at you, they are praising you. Xiaoxiner is the smartest."

Yingxin raised her head and looked at him.

"Really?"

"It's true."

After dinner, everyone moved to the living room.

In the living room was a huge sofa, large enough to seat everyone.

A warm fire burned in the fireplace, and the holographic screen on the wall displayed the night sky of the Xiuluo Holy Star.

Yingxin sat on the sofa, surrounded by a group of primarchs.

"Xiaoxiner,"

Leman Russ said mysteriously.

"Let me tell you a story! A story about my last adventure!"

Yingxin's eyes lit up.

"Okay, okay!"

Leman Russ cleared his throat and began to speak.

"That day, I led my Wolf Riders and charged into the enemy's position. I swung my axe down, and one enemy went flying! Another swing, and two enemies went flying together! Another swing, and three enemies..."

Fulgrim interrupted him.

"Can you tell a story suitable for our little sister to hear? All this hacking and flying, it's too violent."

Leman Russ was unconvinced.

"How is it violent? Little sister likes to hear it!"

He looked at Yingxin.

Yingxin nodded.

"I like to hear it! Brother Leman Russ is the most amazing!"

Leman Russ gave Fulgrim a smug look.

"See that?"

Fulgrim shook his head helplessly.

Alpharius and Omegon walked over and sat on either side of Yingxin.

"Xiaoxiner, shall we play a game?"

"What game?"

"Guess which one of us is who!"

Yingxin looked at their identical faces and frowned.

"This is too hard... you look exactly the same..."

The twins laughed.

"Then why don't you take a guess?"

Yingxin thought for a moment and pointed at the one on the left.

"Are you Brother Alpha?"

The one on the left shook his head.

"Wrong, I am Omegon."

Yingxin then pointed at the one on the right.

"Then are you Brother Alpha?"

The one on the right also shook his head.

"Also wrong, I am Brother Alpha. The one just now was Omegon."

Yingxin was stunned.

"Then who was who just now?"

The twins laughed at the same time.

"We switched places!"

Yingxin was amused and giggled.

"You guys are so mean!"

The twins high-fived triumphantly.
