"Give me that bottle of Moutai."

Xia Mu laughed and pointed to the Moutai that Erii had hidden behind her.

They burst into laughter when they saw Erii carefully hiding the sake.

"They're yours!"

Mans waved his hand.

Xia Mu jumped up, took the microphone from his hand, and without caring whether the songs he sang were ones he had sung before, started singing one upbeat song after another without stopping.

At first, everyone was excited, then surprised, and finally numb.

Erii sat next to Natsuki, her hands supporting her round chin, her eyes fixed on him as he sang.

The evening breeze lifted her long hair, which resembled a sky full of red clouds, making her look as beautiful as a painting.

Xia Mu would glance at her every now and then, then at the executive officers partying on the deck. Seeing the unrestrained behavior of these mixed-race individuals, the corners of his mouth slowly curved into a smile.

From the moment he and Erii boarded the ship, these people never treated them as outsiders, but always as their companions.

Hybrids, due to the sorrow of their blood, are incompatible with ordinary people and are accustomed to sticking together for warmth.

"Eri, do you think we should save them?"

Xia Mu put down the microphone, let the computer play a DJ hit, then turned her head and spoke softly to Erii.

Erii had been watching his every move, and when she saw that his hand was free, she reached out and took his hand in hers.

"Save them?" she asked softly.

Xia Mu looked at his hand that she was playing with and hummed softly, "Tomorrow's operation will be very dangerous."

Erii turned to look at the deck, her eyes sparkling like colorful clouds as she gazed at Professor Mans, who was writhing like a black bear spirit; Ye Sheng, who was gentle and refined; Shudeya, who was sweet and charming; Selma, who was full of enthusiasm.

"Mumu, they are good people," she said softly.

Xia Mu looked at the horizon, watching the last ray of light disappear.

"Yes, they are all good people."

He said in a low voice.

"Save them..."

Erii gripped his hand tightly: "Are you in danger?"

Her eyes gleamed with anxiety: "I...I want to see more of this warm world, and I want to save them, but you...you can't..."

Her words were somewhat incoherent, but Xia Mu understood what she meant.

Everyone has selfish desires, and Erii is no exception.

She was willing to save them, but only if he didn't get hurt.

"I'll do my best."

Xia Mu gripped her hand tightly.

“I’ll help you,” Erii said.

Xia Mu chuckled silently: "You can help me, but don't steal my kills."

Erii looked bewildered: "Steal... a kill?"

Xia Mu glanced at the deck, making sure no one could hear them under the loud speakers, before saying to her, "It's a secondary species. We'll take it down together tomorrow, but I'll handle the final blow."

Erii blinked: "Okay..."

Chapter 120 Even if I die…

"Eri, shall we continue reading 'Norwegian Wood' tonight?"

Back in the cabin, Xia Mu couldn't resist the girl's bright, piercing eyes and tried to stall.

"I need to take a shower first, then I need to lie down in bed, and so does Mumu," Erii said crisply.

Two little figures started fighting in Xia Mu's mind, one restless and the other trying to cool things down.

Erii's eyes were now slightly misty. Although she wasn't drunk at all, the alcohol had numbed her senses, and her pupils were sparkling with a restless light, making her much bolder.

Xia Mu always felt helpless towards her, unable to bring himself to truly refuse her.

The sound of rushing water was so enticing that he couldn't sit still, so he ran to the outer room to play with the "key".

The little guy was happy to see him, but even happier when he didn't see Erii, waving his arms and legs and wanting him to hold him.

"Hey, little guy, why do you like me so much?"

Xia Mu picked him up and walked to the porthole to look at the scenery.

"Awooo wawooo".

The little guy let out a cry he couldn't understand, his two little hands grabbing and grabbing, until they landed on his school uniform that he had just put on that day, or more accurately, on his school badge.

Xia Mu slapped his little hand away: "Don't talk nonsense."

"Wow..."

The little guy didn't understand and even tried to grab his school badge while waving his arms and legs.

"Mumu?"

Just then, Erii's voice came from behind.

"Well?"

The "key" froze, then pursed its lips, tightened its face, and swallowed the sound back into its throat.

Xia Mu looked back.

The girl stood at the doorway, her arms crossed over her chest, holding up her pajamas – a common gesture for girls who only wear pajamas at night.

Make sure your pajamas are slightly flared out so they don't stick to your chest, otherwise...

However, Erii would do the same thing, probably just because it's more comfortable and breathable.

The nightgown only covered a little below the top of her thighs; it wasn't short, but it was enough to show off her beautiful legs.

Erii's legs are long and straight. Even when she is just standing there casually, her legs are tightly together. The lines run down from the outer side of her gradually fuller and more mature thighs to the top of her legs, and there is not a single gap between her legs, as if light cannot pass through.

In the dim light of the bedside lamp, the girl was breathtakingly beautiful, her body, still slightly warm from washing, exuding a gentle, alluring charm. Her pure and captivating beauty was exquisitely alluring.

"coming."

Xia Mu put down the "key" and walked to Erii's side, immediately catching a whiff of her fragrance.

After the girl finished showering and dried her hair, her body was no longer damp, but only warm and fragrant.

"It's your turn to take a shower."

Erii said crisply.

As Xia Mu walked past her, her heartstrings were plucked and tinkled.

He chose to take a cold shower.

"Mumu, what do you mean by 'first time'? Why was Watanabe so ashamed when he found out that Naoko was a virgin?"

When Natsuki returned to the bedside, Erii was flipping through "Norwegian Wood".

Well…

He scratched his head, looked at the excerpt in the book, and said, "I think Watanabe is a very responsible person. In his eyes, in addition to romantic relationships, friendships are also very important. His relationship with Naoko was an accident. If it hadn't been the first time, he would have felt much better and it would have been a dream without a trace."

The Gene Era

"Oh…"

Erii seemed to understand but not quite: "What about Naoko? Why did she leave?"

Xia Mu paused for a moment: "She didn't have the courage to nurture their relationship. After all, she loved Mu Yue, and she couldn't be devoted to protecting him. Their getting together was actually very abrupt, like Mars colliding with Earth, without any reason..."

He thought for a moment and said, "Actually, I can sense that Naoko never liked him, let alone took the relationship seriously. After all, she was unwilling to explain and left impulsively. It's clear that being with Watanabe was just a result of her lonely and empty desires."

Erii continued, seemingly understanding but not quite: "What about Watanabe? Did he love Naoko?"

“Watanabe wasn’t serious at first; he just found it novel and wanted to experience its unique fragrance.” Natsuki shrugged. “It wasn’t until he found out Naoko had left that he realized he had truly fallen for her, and his desire to be with her became strong.”

Erii's eyes brightened, and she asked expectantly, "Will they be together?"

Xia Mu shook her head in disappointment: "I don't think highly of them. They are all burdened by moral shackles, like a cross, and always feel that they have let others down."

This book is also one of his favorite books, and he once analyzed the relationships between the characters very seriously.

"Actually, they never thought about whether they had wronged each other or the relationship. One wanted to escape, while the other desperately chased after him."

He patted Erii's head: "Feelings can't be forced. There's not only a Kizuki standing between them, but also the tension and pressure that they can't let go of."

Xia Mu looked intently into her eyes: "A love that runs in both directions requires not only certainty that we like each other, but also certainty of our beliefs... No matter the difficulties and obstacles, no matter the pressure, we will be together."

Erii held his hand, her eyes filled with a hopeful and beautiful light.

"Mumu, I want..."

She spoke earnestly, as if answering a teacher's question with utmost seriousness: "I want to have a definite belief in you, I want..."

Xia Mu chuckled: "Do you really understand what I'm saying?"

He was not moved.

It's like if a girl who's not even seven or eight years old tells an adult that she wants to marry him and be with him for life, any normal person would burst out laughing.

In Natsuki's heart, Erii was still that innocent little girl.

"Oh…"

Erii lowered her eyelashes, looking aggrieved. She didn't understand why he wasn't responding, nor did she understand when she would finally understand his words.

Liking... loving... it's all so complicated...

But isn't it enough to just be together? If only we could be together forever... that would be enough...

She hugged her knees and leaned against the porthole, looking out at the dim sky without a ray of light.

The skirt slipped down because of her bent legs, revealing her beautiful legs and dazzling white skin.
