Chapter 17

When Mu Xian was not on the spaceship, the ubiquitous sense of oppression disappeared.

The journey was long and I had nothing to do. I took out some DVDs, but I couldn’t watch them. My mind was full of yesterday’s events.

I also remembered his shocked expression when he scolded "beast" and "animal".I didn't pay much attention to it at the time, but now I think about it, he has half-beast genes, and because of this, he was ridiculed by his brother...

Forget it, don't want to.I lie on the sofa and concentrate on watching the DVD.After reading it for half an hour, I just felt dizzy and dizzy. I turned back to the catalog and read - "On the Conflicts and Opportunities of Intelligent Society and Multi-Racial Reproduction", no wonder I couldn't understand it.

The day passed peacefully.In the evening, I wanted to talk to my grandma, but I just turned on the device, and then turned it off again—I had to put on all my energy in front of my grandma and pretend nothing had happened. I don’t know why today, but I don’t feel in the mood.

My stomach hurts a bit, I went to the toilet and saw that it was here.I went to bed early and slept until midnight when I heard some noises.I woke up with a start, and opened my eyes to see that the cabin door was being slowly pushed open.

I was so nervous that my back was sweating.The last time I was hijacked by Kenya, I still have lingering fears. Could it be that someone sneaked into the spaceship and wanted to attack me?
Without lights, a tall figure walked in.I was taken aback by the familiar figure.

Why did Mu Xian come back suddenly in the middle of the night?

I subconsciously closed my eyes, not wanting him to notice that I was awake.

Inaudible footsteps approached, he seemed to have stood by the bed for a while, and then there was a rustling sound.I opened my eyes a little, and saw two long bare legs standing in the gloom—he had undoubtedly stripped himself naked.The bed beside him sank slightly, and he lay down.

Maybe it was because the night was too dark and quiet, but his appearance didn't make me very nervous.I could clearly hear his breathing and the slightly rapid pulse behind my ear.

At this time, his figure moved, I thought he was going to hug me like usual, but he lifted the quilt and sat up.I squinted and looked over, his profile was blurred in the darkness, as if he was looking in the direction of my legs.

Suddenly, he gently lifted the quilt covering my stomach, and bowed his head.My whole body froze—is he going to kiss there again?
Unexpectedly, he put his nose on my underwear and sniffed hard.

I suddenly understood, and my face suddenly became hot—his nose is so sharp, he must have smelled blood.He wouldn't even lick the blood...

Fortunately, at this time, he had already covered the quilt for me and lay down again.

I closed my eyes tightly, and after a while, I suddenly felt a heat on my lips, and his soft and full lips almost went away at the touch of a touch.

Then there was no more movement, his breathing was steady and long, as if he had fallen asleep.

My heart suddenly softened, a little sad, and a little overwhelmed.What is he thinking now?Why sneak back, sleep next to me, kiss me lightly, but do nothing?

This time, I fell asleep very peacefully, and when I woke up, I felt refreshed.I stretched out my hand to turn on the bedside lamp, and I realized it suddenly, but the other side of the bed was empty, and he had already left at some point.

I went to the restaurant and smelled sweet and sour fish and mushroom soup right outside the door.Maureen is serving the food.I glance around quickly and there is no one else.

"I like these two dishes very much." I sat down with a smile.Maureen laid out the napkin for me, and said with a long "huh", "Are you finally in a good mood today?"

I wondered, "Am I in a bad mood?"

He "cut" and said: "Yesterday you have been with a face of ice cubes, okay?" Then he said dejectedly: "You are happy with us, poor commander, you have to stay with a bunch of stinky men every day." Together……"

I was taken aback, it seemed that he didn't know that Mu Xian had come back.

**
The day passed quickly, and at night, I calmed down for the day, and became a little anxious.The amount of that has also increased, and my stomach hurts a bit. I went to bed early and slept deeply.

In the middle of the night, I woke up suddenly, unable to sleep.

Will he come today?Will you negotiate with me?
Sure enough, after I waited very energetically for half an hour, the door was pushed open.I closed my eyes and listened as he undressed, went to bed, and lay down.Suddenly, there was heat on his stomach—his palm covered it.

I froze, what is this for?
He remained in this position, and after a long time, his breathing was steady, and he was obviously asleep.

And my aching stomach felt better.

I opened my eyes and vaguely saw the delicate silhouette in the dim light.His eyes were slightly closed, the corners of his mouth were pursed lightly, and he fell into a deep sleep.It looks so handsome and quiet.

He actually knew how to relieve my pain.He didn't do this yesterday, did he go to check it out?
I never thought that there would be a man in this world who would warm my stomach with his hands.I never thought that this person would be him.Why is he so considerate of me?After being scolded so hard by me?
It can't be that he feels guilty... I feel a little uncomfortable.But this feeling is really comfortable.I suddenly remembered his promise.

He said he would protect me.

Is this a form of protection?

***
Three days later, the fleet arrived in the Badlands.

According to Mo Pu's explanation, a super-light speed jump could have arrived in an instant, but because there was no urgent matter, the fleet sailed at sub-light speed for five days, and took a rest by the way.

Maureen's complaint was more direct: this should have been a sweet four-person world.

When he said this, I was standing in the circular corridor of the Angel, looking at the stars.His words reminded me of last night, Mu Xian still came in the middle of the night.

Thinking of this, I just feel itchy stomach, very uncomfortable.But it was warm, as if the remaining warmth of his big palm was still there.

"Attention all ships, land at Kunnuo planetary space port in 5 minutes, please enter the port in order of ship number." A deep baritone sounded on the radio, which was an order from the command center of the main ship.

I looked into the distance, and at the end of this galaxy, a red giant star was shining brightly.Several planets of different sizes float quietly, bathed in the brilliance of the red giant star.

This is the Badlands.

Among those planets, there is the largest azure planet—Kuno Planet.That is the most prosperous area in the Badlands, and it is also where we are stationed on the ground.

When the spacecraft sailed into the asteroid field, I realized that some of them were not planets at all, but huge spaceships.The barren land is an important military fortress of the empire, and these spaceships should be the local garrison.

Finally, the spacecraft entered the atmosphere, and the outline of the continent gradually emerged.The turquoise water is like a spread of silk, wrapping the lush land in the middle - Kuno planet has only one continent.

The spaceship descended lower and lower. Through the binoculars, I saw black buildings, white tarmacs, and then saw the noisy and messy market, and groups of orcs walking through the streets with guns and cigarettes.This place is completely different from the rigorous and elegant imperial capital.

When it arrived at the space port, surrounded by ten escort ships, the pink Angel separated from the huge fleet and sailed to the depths of the land.Maureen said he was going to send me home directly.

I was a little surprised to hear the word "home".

I was even more surprised when I saw the silver-gray building suspended in mid-air on the green hillside with my own eyes.

The sky is blue and the clouds are pure white.The sun is bright yellow and the hillsides are green.The house just hangs in the picturesque landscape.It has a very peculiar shape.The white roof is polygonal, layered on top of each other, full of tension; brown floor-to-ceiling windows and snow-white walls are inlaid at random, but it does not look messy, but creates a harmonious aesthetic.The whole house looks full of avant-garde art, but it also looks elegant and clean.

"It's beautiful." I admired, "Why can the house be suspended in mid-air?"

"Magnetic field," Mope replied.Mo Lin smacked his lips and said, "The commander specially asked the architects of the imperial capital to design this, just for you!"

My room is on the second floor.Compared with the simplicity and coldness on the spaceship, this place looks quite warm and comfortable.It's just that the big white bed in the middle of the room is more than four meters long and four meters wide, which is really an eyesore.

A day and night on the Kuno planet is 8 hours, that is to say, 4 hours during the day and 4 hours at night.The local habit is to rest 2 days and work 2 days.So when I went to bed after watching three sunsets, the concept of time was completely confused.

Through the glass ceiling, the night sky is dark blue and clear, with a dozen huge planets hanging above it, it looks like a few holes have been broken, revealing the ferocious and rough inside.

I was lying on the super big bed, which was very comfortable, but I couldn't sleep.

Will Mu Xian come?I figured it out, since he won't speak, I'm going to take the initiative to talk to him today.Everyone was angry that day. Since we were going to live a lifetime, it was good for each other to get along happily.

This wait is actually a whole day and night.

When Maureen knocked on the door to remind me to eat breakfast, I didn't see anyone.I opened the door wearily, and Maureen was startled when she saw me: "Miss, what did you do last night? There are two big dark circles under your eyes!"

I couldn't care too much, and asked directly: "Mu Xian didn't come back last night?"

Mo Lin was stunned for a moment, and burst into a pleasant smile: "He, he lives in the military headquarters. Do you want to call him back?"

I was stunned and shook my head. Maureen looked disappointed, his whole body was pressed against the wall, and he slammed his head against the wall violently.I couldn't help but drag him downstairs.

When we walked to the door of the restaurant, we were both stunned.

Because Mu Xian was sitting at the table full of sunlight, eating breakfast with his head down.He was still the same, with a neat military uniform, a handsome face, and clean eyebrows.Like a handsome young man who just walked out of a landscape painting.As if never left.

When he looked up and saw us, his expression didn't change, he just said lightly, "Morning."

"Morning..." I replied in a daze.Mo Lin kept shouting "early, early", and everyone could hear the joy in his voice.He pushed me to the table, pulled out the chair, and went to serve breakfast humming a song.

I looked down at the table, one of his hands was in front of him, a light gray shirt under a dark gray military uniform, his slender and white hand was holding a silver knife.The white gloves were neatly folded and put aside.

"Didn't sleep well?" The soft and gentle voice brought me back to my senses in an instant.

"Not bad." I replied immediately.

At this time, Mo Lin brought breakfast, and when I looked up, I caught a glimpse of a faint smile on the corner of Mu Xian's lips.

"Pfft..." Maureen heard our conversation, and said in what he thought was a "whisper" volume, "There are two big dark circles..."

My face became hot, could he smile, he must have seen the dark circles under his eyes.I simply shut up and concentrated on eating.

At this time, he had finished eating and pushed the plate away.I hesitated for a moment, how should I express my peaceful intention?
Unexpectedly, he spoke first.

"Hua Yao, I need your help with something."

I looked at him in surprise, does he still need my help?But his face was calm, his eyes were gentle, and he was obviously serious.

"what's up?"

He took out a chip from his pocket and put it on the table: "Before, all my funds were deposited in the Third Bank of the Imperial Capital. I got the news ten days ago that the bank went bankrupt. I lost 40.00% of my funds..."

"Forty?" I was taken aback. You must know that his total capital is roughly equivalent to tens of billions of dollars on the earth, 40.00% is 40 billion?I vaguely guessed what he wanted me to do, and when I opened the image of the chip, it turned out that they were all digital reports.

"I don't have anyone in my fleet who is good at financial investing," he said. "Can you manage the money for me?"

I had a quick look at the statements, and the losses were horrendous, so it looked like he was having a real problem.I hesitated and said, "Why don't you go to the imperial capital and find a professional to take care of it?"

He still smiled faintly: "Kenya has great influence in the financial circles of the imperial capital."

I understood immediately, but I still said: "Sorry, I only worked in a financial company for a few months, and I did some auxiliary work. Your amount of funds is too large..."

"I really can't find anyone else." He frowned slightly, as if he was a little embarrassed.

I was dubious: "But if I make a mistake in investing and lose money..."

"It doesn't matter if you lose everything." He said softly, "It was originally yours too."

I was speechless immediately.He was also silent, very patient.

I thought to myself that if I really got married, it would be a pity if the money continued to be lost like this.If there is another high-risk event that might put Mu Xian out of business, then I will suffer too.Although I am a rookie, I understand the basics. Investing in low-risk and low-yield assets will never lose money.

And I stay in the house every day, really bored.It's good to find something to do.

What's more, he is now actively looking for me.I don't want the relationship to become stagnant again, adding to the blockage for nothing.

"Then I'll give it a try." I replied in a low voice.

"Thank you." He stood up, "I'll come back tomorrow, and you tell me exactly what you want to do."

"……it is good."

He went to the sink to wash his hands and sanitize, and went back to the table to put on his gloves.I kept my head buried in eating, but every movement of him was clearly heard in my ears.

I thought he was leaving, but he stood motionless at the table.

"Hua Yao." He looked at me with deep eyes, and my heart speeded up.

"One thing, you are wrong. I think it must be clarified."

I stared at him blankly.

The tall and slender body stood upright, and Yingxiu's clean facial features were very eye-catching.Bright eyes stopped on my face, with a calm and serious expression.

My heart suddenly came to mind. Is he finally going to make a final verdict on what happened that day?
"Not just a wife." His voice was slow and clear, "Now, you are my princess."

I froze, princess?what does that mean?
Under my amazed gaze, he slowly looked away, his fair cheeks seemed to be slightly flushed, and his tone became calm: "Go back and sleep for a while."

I nodded subconsciously, and he had already stepped out of the door with his long legs.

Mo Lin, who had been pretending to be invisible, rushed out from the side, and asked excitedly and surprised: "Miss, are you a princess? What race are you from? Are you Aixinjueluo?"

I shook my head, also confused.He said I was wrong about one thing, meaning I was right about everything else?He also admitted that he was unfair to me before?

I suddenly felt a tinge of joy and bitterness.I really didn't expect that he would say that.

But what does princess mean?
Until I went upstairs, what I said to him that day suddenly popped up in my mind: "...just because you are a prince, am I just a commoner? If we are of the same status, can you still treat me like this ..."

And just now he said, I am his princess?
