Xia Mu pulled her hands away, pinned her to the bed, and locked her in his arms, staring into her eyes: "Tell me! What do you mean by waste!"
Xia Mi opened her thin, moist lips and gently blew on his face, but said nothing.
Xia Mu's breathing was heavy, but he stared at her without moving... to make her understand his determination.
The two remained deadlocked, their faces equally flushed, yet making no progress.
Until the phone rang.
Xia Mu and Xia Mi remained motionless.
But the phone kept ringing; it rang again shortly after I turned it off.
"call…"
Xia Mu let out a breath, released Xia Mi abruptly, and scrambled to her feet, reaching straight for her phone.
Xia Mi sat up, looked at his pants, and covered her mouth to chuckle.
"What are you laughing at! This is normal!"
Xia Mu's face flushed even more. She picked up her phone, glanced at it, shushed Xia Mi, and answered the call: "Brother..."
Genji's voice came through.
"Xiao Mu, you've been doing a lot lately. Your dad and I are really worried about you..."
Chapter 239 Sleeping in the Same Bed
"You've made enemies with the board of trustees at the college..."
"According to intelligence, you've also made enemies with the mixed-race organization on Han Gao's side..."
"In other words, you've offended almost every hybrid organization outside..."
Hearing Yuan Zhisheng's helpless voice, Xia Mu touched his nose.
“But it’s okay. If you get bored, just come back. The family will always be there for you,” Genjiro said again.
"Mm." Xia Mu nodded.
Genji seemed to hesitate for a moment, carefully considering his words before speaking: "Your romantic history... seems quite complicated as well?"
"Huh...what?"
Xia Mu shivered as Xia Mi lay on his back, her tongue tracing across his neck and shoulder skin.
"You and that Xia Liyi seemed to have some special relationship before. I thought your growth and changes came from her, and that it was because of her that you insisted on going abroad to Kassel College, but now..."
Yuan Zhisheng's voice carried a hint of gossip, "What's the deal with that new junior, Xia Mi? I heard she confessed to you in front of the whole school? And you were a couple for three months?"
"It's...it's nothing..." Xia Mu laughed awkwardly.
“Yeah, it’s nothing, it’s just that he’s lying on my bed right now!” Xia Mi suddenly leaned closer to his phone and said.
Xia Mu: "..."
There was a long silence on the other end: "Have fun tonight... Be careful not to get pregnant by accident. I've sent you some contraceptive methods, take a look."
The call ended, and shortly thereafter, a detailed contraception guide appeared on the phone screen.
Xia Mu's lips twitched, and he casually tossed his phone aside, simultaneously lifting Xia Mi off his back and back onto the bed.
After all that commotion, the flames within him died down, but he still dared not look at Xia Mi's current appearance any longer.
I Have a Scroll of Ghost and Deity Illustrations
He rolled up the blanket on the bed and wrapped Xia Mi inside before turning to look at her.
“Odin’s Word of Power has stopped working on me, and it will soon stop working on everyone. All it takes is a trigger.” Xia Mi stretched out one of her beautiful legs and tucked the blanket between them.
Xia Mu nodded: "I had a feeling about it too."
"Will you still be able to protect Uesugi Erii then?" Xia Mi said Erii's name in its entirety for the first time.
“I know who the mastermind is, but he’s no match for me now. The only problem is finding him,” Xia Mu said.
"Do you know what role Uesugi Erii plays?" Natsumi sat up straight, leaning against the headboard like a silkworm, without immediately pulling off the covers, probably wanting to have a normal conversation with Natsumi.
Xia Mu nodded.
“Then you should know that she doesn’t have long to live.” Xia Mi observed his expression.
Xia Mu remained calm: "Didn't you say that becoming a dragon would completely solve the problem?"
“It’s not that simple. Even if only 1% of human blood is retained, it’s not a true dragon. And that last trace is the hardest to remove,” Xia Mi said.
"I know, I'm working hard to get that method." Xia Mu shrugged.
Xia Mi opened her mouth to speak, but swallowed the words back... She'd better do it quietly.
"Don't go."
She saw Xia Mu turn around and quickly grabbed his wrist.
Xia Mu brushed her hand away, but instead of heading to the door, she turned on the light.
The warm, yellow wall lamps lit up.
Xia Mi looked back and realized that the sun had already set and darkness was engulfing the entire city.
"I'll stay with you for three days, but you're not allowed to tempt me," Xia Mu said as she walked over.
"What a waste..."
Xia Mi stuck out her tongue, threw off the covers and got out of bed. Right in front of him, she bent down, took off her stockings, and put on her bathrobe.
Here, this is yours.
She handed Xia Mu another item.
Xia Mu changed into the matching pajamas, which featured a bear pattern.
"Come."
Xia Mi lay back down on the bed, leaned against the headboard, and patted the bed surface next to her.
Xia Mu then lay down on the bed, half a meter away from her.
The two looked out the window together.
“I used to lie here alone, reflecting on what happened during the day, pondering human actions, imitating them little by little, and then shaping the personality of Xia Mi,” Xia Mi said softly.
Xia Mu listened to her speak silently.
She kept talking and talking until it was completely dark and the moon rose.
Xia Mu turned off the light and went back to bed. Xia Mi leaned over and rested her head on his shoulder.
He hesitated for a moment, then reached out and put his hand on her shoulder.
The moonlight filled the room.
As Xia Mi recounted her emotional journey over the years, she slowly closed her eyes, murmuring as she drifted off to sleep.
Xia Mu could hear her rhythmic breaths, which made his eyelids grow heavy...
"What is Xia Mu doing?"
In a hotel not far from here, Passy Gattuso was making a long-distance call to Frost to report on the situation.
“We must kill that dragon before he does, so that Caesar can have that honor, and we must obtain the dragon bones,” Frost said.
“Yes,” Percy nodded. “Sir, please rest assured, we have been keeping an eye on him, but it seems he is not interested in slaying the dragon. He went to Xia Mi’s house today and hasn’t come out yet.”
"In that case, Caesar made the right decision by bringing this girl in..."
Frost sneered, "Then let him continue to be lost in women. Tell Caesar not to recall Xia Mi to join the operation, and let the status quo continue."
"Yes," Percy replied.
"Caesar is unaware that he is the target of the Dragon King's attention, and he may be searching for clues everywhere. You can send him some without leaving a trace."
"Yes."
Besides the Gattuso family, Chu Zihang is still researching earthquake data, and Lu Mingfei is immersed in the pleasure of beating others in the internet cafe.
He was unaware that Lu Mingze had already assembled a full team of support staff to help him become a dragon-slaying hero and gain global renown.
There are also other mixed-race organizations... the entire capital is in complete chaos.
What are we doing today?
The next day, after Natsuki got up, he asked Natsumi.
"I slept so well," Xia Mi stretched lazily. "I'll stay home all day today."
"That won't do, I have to go out." Xia Mu crossed her arms.
Xia Mi glanced at him: "I'll go with you. What are you going to do?"
“I’ve heard that the subway stations in the capital are quite nice. I plan to take every train and visit each platform,” Xia Mu said.
Xia Mi sat up straight abruptly, her expression becoming somewhat indifferent: "Why do this? The platforms are all the same, there's nothing interesting about them."
Xia Mu chuckled: "Because two commissioners went missing before, I analyzed it and found that their only difference was that they would inspect all the stations every day, so I decided to recreate their day."
Xia Mi stared at him and slowly asked, "Why do you know how to enter the Nibelungen?"
Xia Mu paused, looking into her eyes.
"I know even more, why don't we share the information?"
Chapter 240 Xia Mu the Big Bad Wolf
In the end, Xia Mi still refused to tell Xia Mu anything more, especially her plans.
She simply followed Xia Mu all day, watching him swipe his card at each station, his expression growing increasingly calm, as calm as a stagnant pool of water that no longer flowed.
"We've got some leads on Chu Zihang's end; his earthquake model is finished, and Lu Mingfei has suddenly disappeared from the internet cafe..."
Three days later, at dawn, Xia Mu stood by the bedside, looking into Xia Mi's eyes: "They have powerful backers supporting them. I can't let them get ahead. Whatever your plans, I'm going to tell you mine now..."
Xia Mi leaned against the headboard, her eyes lowered, and remained silent.
