The two lingered closer for a while. Ellie was tempted to have Eden join the "Fire Moth," but after thinking it over, she decided against it. Eden was doing quite well now, and joining would involve so many risks.
After a 30-minute break, Eden returned to the concert, but the audience's enthusiasm remained undiminished.
......
With Eden bowing in gratitude, the concert came to a successful close.
After returning to his lounge and saying a brief goodbye to Ellie, Eden went to the private room where Juexi and the others were staying.
"Hello, my friends, did you have a good time tonight?"
Looking at Eden, whose smile was as warm as a spring breeze, Kevin stammered as he asked.
"Could you sign your name for me, Miss Eden?"
Eden
Eden smiled and took out a pen and a record.
"Of course, my friend."
He then signed his name on the record packaging and handed it to Kevin.
After exchanging pleasantries, the group was about to leave when Eden spoke to Juexi.
"Mr. Juexi, can we talk alone?"
Jue Xi was a little confused, but he still agreed. He squeezed Qi Bao's little hand and walked out of the room with Eden.
"What's wrong, Eden?"
Eden inquired with concern.
"Excuse my bluntness, my friend, but I feel like you're going through some...difficult times?"
Jue Xi was speechless for a moment. No wonder she's a big star... She really has a good eye for people. She can tell at a glance that Jue Xi is broke.
When Eden saw that Juexi didn't reply immediately, he thought he had offended him and quickly said something.
"Don't get me wrong, my friend. What I mean is, you give me the impression of someone who doesn't really care about money."
Juexi replied with a smile.
"Eden, you're being really tactful. To put it bluntly, I'm broke, hahaha. You've got a good eye for people."
Eden took out a card and handed it to Juexi with a smile.
"You are a very interesting person, my friend. I really like the gift you gave me. I didn't prepare anything decent for you since it's our first meeting. I really didn't mean to offend you. I hope you can accept this to solve your immediate problem."
Jue Xi looked at it and thought, "Good heavens, am I destined to be kept by a rich woman wherever I go?" Jue Xi immediately took the card and said.
"I'm so embarrassed, you know. Hahaha."
Eden was amused; she'd never met anyone like this before—saying she was sorry, but acting on it so readily. Juexi, realizing something, didn't hide it and conjured a small gem (made with the power of reason, a beautiful stone) right in front of Eden, handing it to her.
Eden took the stone, somewhat shocked, but still smiled and asked.
"Is this magic, my friend?"
It was said in a mysterious and enigmatic way.
“That’s right, Sister Eden, but this stone isn’t an ordinary stone. You should carry this stone with you at all times, like a talisman. If you encounter any danger, I can come out and protect you.”
Eden seemed to have heard a joke, but while he thought it was incredibly childish, he smiled and said it on the surface.
"You should just tell your little girlfriend about this, Juexi. But I appreciate your sentiment, and I'll carry this stone with me from now on."
After discussing this matter, Juexi and Eden said their goodbyes. Eden mentioned that he needed to visit other people in the other boxes. Juexi then returned to her own box and led Qibao, Kevin, and the others away from the concert.
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Juexi and Kiana returned to the Moth Chaser's branch base in Changkong City.
Under Mebius's arrangement, in order to avoid more people coming into contact with these two unstable factors, Juexi, Kiana, and Alicia lived with him in a villa. As soon as Juexi returned to the villa, she saw Mebius scolding Alicia.
"Alicia! What did I say to you?! I told you to protect Mei, and you went to the concert and slacked off!"
Alicia felt a little awkward.
"Um, don't worry. I've entrusted the task of protecting Mei to someone even more capable."
Kiana, who had just entered the villa, said happily.
"Captain. You had a lot of fun today. Let's go to Eden's concert again next time."
As soon as she finished speaking, Mebius and Alicia both looked at Kiana and Juexi.
Mebius's face darkened. The "more powerful people" Alicia mentioned must be these two, right? He'd clearly warned them to be wary of them, yet Alicia still dared to have them secretly protect Mebius... Thank goodness Mebius wasn't in any danger. But, they went to Eden's concert too? Even "Herrschers" like this? Maybe he should change careers now, abandon research and become an idol?
Dr. Möbius
Jue Xi also noticed that the atmosphere was a bit awkward.
"Um, Dr. Mebius, you and Ellie have something to talk about, you two go ahead and chat, Qibao and I are going to rest."
After Juexi finished speaking, she pulled Kiana back to her room. Just as Ai Li turned around to talk to Juexi, she heard Mebius say sinisterly behind her.
"Alicia~ What are you going to say?"
"Hehe, it's nothing. By the way, Mebius, I brought you something nice, a gift from Eden."
"Hmph, what is it?"
Mebius snorted and crossed his arms over his chest.
Ellie took out a bag of shiny things and handed it to Mebius.
"Just in time."
"gold?"
"I can't believe it," Mebius asked, puzzled.
"Alicia, did you go rob a bank?"
"No, it really was Eden who gave it to me. She said it was a gift from a friend."
Möbius took the gold from Alicia. "I'll check it later to see its purity. If it's real gold..." Möbius weighed it in his hand. "It's alright, better than nothing."
"Aili asked with a grin."
"So? Doctor~"
Mebius waved his hand, somewhat annoyed.
"Go away, go away, don't get in the way here, don't do it again next time."
"Hehe, yes sir."
As soon as Ellie finished speaking, she left. Mebius subconsciously looked up and quickly said something.
"Hey! Alicia, go to your own room! You've come to the wrong room!"
Alicia
Chapter 120 Canghai City
Aili turned away with some disappointment, but then she headed towards Juexi and Kiana's room.
Mebius was somewhat speechless, but he still lowered his head and began to examine the gold that Alicia had brought back. He thought to himself that Alicia was fearless and wanted to go play with the "Herrscher" if she wanted to. Anyway, he couldn't control her, so he just wanted her to stay out of his way.
Ellie knocked on the door of Juexi and Kiana's house.
"Kiana~ May I come in? I'm the cute Alicia~?"
Kiana and Juexi were just about to go to bed... um... rest.
Kiana heard Airi's voice, and after glancing at her captain's expression, she found it extremely amusing. Kiana chuckled and gave her captain a small kiss, then spoke to Airi outside the door in a cheerful tone.
"Sister Aili, what's wrong?"
"Nothing, Kiana, I just missed you, so may I come in?"
"of course."
After receiving Kiana's approval, Airi pushed open the door.
"Kiana~ You went to Eden's concert today too, right? How was it? How was it?"
Kiana had also gotten used to Airi's enthusiasm.
"Ah, Sister Eden is so elegant. I think her songs are very artistic, but I can't understand them. Anyway, they are very beautiful."
Ellie looked like a fan leader.
"Yes, yes, Kiana, you think so too, right? Eden is such a nice person; when she's in a good mood, she even gives me cute little things~"
Seeing that Ai Li was chatting enthusiastically with her Qi Bao, Jue Xi knew that the two of them wouldn't finish talking anytime soon. Jue Xi got up and went outside. She saw Dr. Mebius doing some kind of experiment and went over to him.
"Hey!"
Mebius instinctively got angry and stopped Juexi, as she hated it when others got involved in her experiments.
Jue Xi chuckled awkwardly.
"Well, nothing, Dr. Mebius. I just came to see if you need any help."
Mebius realized that the boy didn't seem to have any bad intentions, so he became bolder.
"Hmph, the biggest help you can give me is the fact that you don't cause me any trouble."
After she finished speaking, she took out a syringe and threw it to Juexi.
"Hey, if you really want to help, give me a vial of your blood. I'd like to study you. You little guinea pig~"
Although Juexi knew that Mebius wouldn't do anything bad to her—after all, she couldn't do it even if she wanted to—she still couldn't help but feel a little scared looking into his eyes.
Jue Xi chuckled.
"Um, Dr. Mebius, let's skip this one. We'll do it next time."
"Tch. Didn't you say you traveled back in time? You should at least offer me some help."
Jue Xi thought to himself, "That lie I told back then is a bit hard to cover up." He looked around and found that Möbius was actually studying Mora.
"Dr. Möbius, are you researching Mora?"
"Mora?"
Mebius asked.
