Chapter 20

The night is soft and clear, and the faint blue sky covers the earth like a tulle.

We walked to the hillside in front of our house, Mu Xian handed the clothes to the patrol robot, and said softly, "I'll pick you up tomorrow morning."

I turned to look at him unexpectedly.I thought he would go in with me.

In the hazy night, his complexion was dark and pale, his eyes were clear, his outline was gentle and delicate, he was completely different from the cold and gloomy in his memory.

"Thank you for today," I said, "Then I'll go in."

He nodded, put his hands in his trouser pockets, and stood still.I walked in, about a dozen steps, and when I reached the floating stairs at the door, I subconsciously looked back.

He still stood where he was, on the Starlight Grass, like a graceful and quiet statue.Suddenly, he opened his long legs, walked up to me quickly, and stared at me: "What's the matter?"

I froze, and quickly replied: "It's okay."

I just looked back to see if you left...

He looked at me and suddenly smiled slightly.The corners of the slightly curved lips seemed to be stained with the warmth and haze of the night.

"Oh." A deep and gentle voice.

My face became inexplicably hot, I whispered good night, and turned to go upstairs.But I vaguely understood in my heart—he was expecting me to kiss him just now, right?Or invite him back to sleep?
So when he saw me turn around, he caught up almost immediately.

So he will show a helpless smile and say "oh" thoughtfully...

I quickly looked back at him.He was still standing there, looking up at me.It's just that the night is blurred, and his facial features can no longer be seen clearly.

I closed the door in a daze.

He's really changing, as he promised.

what about me?what do I do?
I raised my head silently and froze immediately.

What's the situation?
The lights are not turned on, and the orange candlelight flickers gently in the dark; the melodious music seems to come from the depths of the night; the table is covered with flowers, and the fragrance is refreshing.There is a dark blue wine bottle and two crystal wine glasses in the middle.

Very warm, but also very ambiguous.

I'm a little surprised, is this also arranged by Mu Xian?Will he come up again?
But a loud voice quickly denied my thoughts.

"Miss! Why did you come back alone? Where is the commander?"

The light came on suddenly, and Mo Lin ran out from nowhere, with a resentful expression on his face, followed by the silent Mo Pu.

I was relieved immediately - walked to the sofa and sat down, there was a pink heart-shaped candle on the armrest, which was obviously Mo Lin's taste, not Mu Xian.

"He's back at the military headquarters," I replied.

Not surprised by Mo Pu, he began to blow out the candles, turn off the music, and tidy up the scene.Mo Lin threw himself on the sofa, buried his face in the red velvet, and shouted in a muffled voice: "The progress is so slow...it's a shame we have been preparing all day!"

I patted his metal head and said with a smile: "Don't be depressed, I will work harder next time."

He raised his head sharply, blinking his eyes wildly: "Really?"

I was silent for a moment and nodded.

He immediately sat up straight, covering his mouth and smiling.That's when the doorbell rang and the patrol robot brought in my new clothes.

I thought of Mu Xian with a nosebleed and couldn't help laughing.Mo Lin had sharp eyes and asked curiously, "What's so happy?" I smiled and said, "I'm asking you, does Mu Xian suffer from nosebleeds?"

Maureen shook his head: "No. He's stronger than a robot."

"I've seen it a few times." Mo Pu interrupted suddenly.

We both looked at him curiously, and he smiled and said: "During the four years when the commander and the lady were separated, sometimes he would stay in the command room to admire the photos of the lady, and I saw him suffer from nosebleeds twice."

Maureen stayed there for two seconds, understood, jumped up with a smile on his face, raised his hand and gave Mo Pu a loud high-five.Mo Pu cooperated gracefully, and the two looked at me with smiles.

I was laughing too, but my heart felt a little sour when I smiled, and I couldn't laugh anymore.I don't know if it's for myself or for Mu Xian.

Probably because they saw that my expression was a little stiff, they were all stunned.Mo Lin asked cautiously: "Miss, do you still blame the commander for what happened back then? Please believe me, the commander never wants to hurt you."

I find this question impossible to answer.Do I still blame him?
"I know he doesn't want to hurt me. It's a problem with the orc gene. The emperor told me." I replied vaguely.

Both Mo Lin and Mo Pu were a little surprised, and Mo Pu said: "So you already know." Mo Lin said happily: "It's good to know. Our authority can't talk about the secrets of the royal family, ah, it's killing me these days .The commander is innocent! You can rest assured and boldly fall in love with him!"

I ignored Mo Lin, looked at Mo Pu, and asked self-deprecatingly: "Did I just pass by your spaceship that day? So you chose me for him?" I have wanted to ask this question for a long time.

Mo Lin also looked curiously at Mo Pu, who was not on the spaceship at the time.

I didn't expect it, however, and Mo Pu shook his head.

"No. Of course not." He looked directly at me, "Since you already know about Beastization, I have the right to talk about it with you—it is the commander's decision to choose you."

I couldn't believe my ears: "What did you say?"

Mo Pu replied calmly: "I clearly remember that when the commander woke up from the lycanthropy coma, I told him that His Majesty the Emperor had issued an order to 'mate immediately'. He only said one sentence."

My heart was pounding, and Mo Pu looked at me warmly: "The commander said: 'If possible, I want Hua Yao.'"

***
The sky was already pale, and I lay on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.

Mo Pu also said that Mu Xian had been to Earth several times before, but that was the first time he heard Mu Xian mention my name.He listened to Mu Xian's words and didn't have much hope, but he still let the spaceship fly directly to my city.It turned out to be a stroke of luck and found me a few streets away.

I can't help but speculate, have we met before?But his outstanding appearance, I have seen it impossible not to be impressed.

In my impression, since I was a child, I have never rescued a big black dog that fell into the water, an injured big black dog, or a stray big black dog.So I must have never seen him in animal form.

There is only one possibility.

He met me in some way, but I didn't know it.

And he might have a crush on me, otherwise he wouldn't insist on having me in such a critical time.

But this is really unbelievable—Mu Xian has a crush on me?He likes me?
I always thought that Mu Xian wanted to be physically and mentally loyal to his "wife", not to "Hua Yao".Even if it wasn't me back then, if it was another girl, he would treat her the same way.

He himself said that he didn't care about anything about me except loyalty.As long as the person you marry is healthy, it doesn't matter who you are.If you like me, why would you say such a thing?
Impossible, he can't like me.

I said to myself: Stop thinking about it, it doesn’t matter if you like it or not, since he is willing to respect me and protect me, I just need to be a qualified wife.

Even though I thought so, my heart was still in a mess, and I couldn't sleep all night.

**
It turned out that when Maureen knocked on the door the next day, I didn't sleep much at all.Sitting in front of the mirror, I saw two eye-catching dark circles.I was a little frustrated, but also amused, so I changed into the trouser suit I bought yesterday and went downstairs.

The sun had already flooded the entire living room. Mu Xian was sitting on the sofa. Hearing the sound, he raised his head and his eyes were fixed on me.After a while, it moved to my face, and I was stunned.

I can already understand his silent astonishment, and he obviously noticed the dark circles under his eyes, which made me feel embarrassed to be peeped into his mind.

"Didn't sleep well?" Mu Xian stood up and walked to me.

"It's okay," I replied, "probably because I slept too much the day before yesterday." This excuse made me feel much better than admitting that I hadn't slept.

Mu Xian stared at me with a delicate and moving smile on his face.

"That's good."

My face suddenly became hot, what is "that's good"?What is he implying?Did Maureen report to him the content of our conversation yesterday?Or thought I couldn't sleep well without him?
I quickly said "I'm going to have breakfast", turned and walked towards the restaurant, his footsteps followed slowly and lightly, as if stepping on the tip of my heart, trembling and numb.

After dinner we got on the plane.Because he was going to outer space, Mu Xian put on a space suit and gave me a condom.It fit me perfectly, and I thought he had found me a set of female soldier clothes.

Unexpectedly, he stared at me with dark eyes, and said softly: "This is the clothes I wore when I was a teenager." I suddenly realized - how could he be willing to smell other women on me?

Leaving the atmosphere, the dark space is dotted with stars, which is quiet and bright.He performed a superluminal jump, and then said to me: "Two more hours of sailing, and we will arrive at the observation site of the Pillar of Time."

I nodded.

I have read some materials and heard from Mo Pu and Maureen.The star field where the Age Pillar can be observed is located behind Helen Fortress.The reason why Helen Fortress is important is that the galaxy's notorious exiled mercenary group often haunts the nearby star field.They live by plundering the planet's resources and are the public enemies of the civilized planet.They have repeatedly invaded Helen Fortress, and the Badlands have also been occupied by them, but they were eventually taken back by the Imperial Fleet.

The commander in charge of the fortress, Major General Bai Lang, is Luna's husband and Mu Xian's good friend for many years.According to Mo Pu, he is a very loyal and excellent general.Mu Xian only brought one fleet to the barren land this time, and the other two fleets stayed on Star Stan.Although he is Bai Lang's direct superior, he does not intend to interfere with the normal operation of the local garrison, but only uses his own strength to strengthen the defense.

Although the two of us went to see the Pillar of Youth, there is generally no danger.That star field is still far away from Helen Fortress.If mercenaries invade, they will definitely alarm the fortress defenders.In other words, unless the fortress falls, there will be no mercenaries around the Time Pillar.

**
But I was already sleepy, and even more dizzy after jumping.I knew I couldn't sleep, so I kept staring at the beautiful nebula outside the window, but fell asleep at some point.

I don't know how long it took, I felt a little itchy on my lips, and a slight but familiar breath brushed my cheeks.I didn't care too much, stuck out my tongue and licked my lips.

After a while, I felt itching on my lips again, this time it felt much clearer, something wet and soft was licking me.

I suddenly woke up.It felt familiar, it was his tongue.

I froze.

Because when he fell asleep before, he also kissed me secretly, every time it was just a taste.I'm going to wait until he's stopped, and then pretend he's just woken up.

Unexpectedly, he licked and licked again, without interruption.I can still feel him sniffing deeply against my lips and cheeks with his nose.

I endured it silently, and when I counted to 45, I felt that my whole face was very itchy from the hot breath he exhaled; my lips were also numb.I couldn't help it anymore, raised my hand to cover my mouth, pretended to yawn, and opened my eyes.
