Talulah, I'm still a child.

Having made up her mind, Xiao Ke watched as Mei Xue helped Kong change his clothes and then quietly left. She planned to ask Mei Xue for this to eat later.

Ten minutes passed without any deviation. Although a lot of anger had accumulated, at least the desire was not as strong as before, and Kong felt much more relaxed.

"I just don't have much of an appetite..."

Touching his slightly bloated belly, Sora realized that he needed to be more restrained in the future, otherwise it would be bad for his health. However, the taste of Meixue was indeed quite unique. Anyway, Sora had heard that it was usually fishy.

However, when Sora stepped outside and saw Exusiai and Texas looking at her with very subtle expressions, she knew that she had been exposed, as if the door hadn't been closed.

The thought that her infatuation had been witnessed by her two best friends and rivals made Kong suddenly consider asking Mei Xue for a time machine, but deep down she felt a sense of smug joy.

"Empty...it tastes pretty good, doesn't it?"

"I'm afraid I won't even want to eat."

Texas and Exusia's banter made Sora want to crawl into a hole and hide, but she couldn't admit defeat at a time like this. It's just a matter of revealing each other's secrets, anyone can do that.

"Don't act like you two have never tried it before."

There are some things that everyone knows each other, and while it's easier to talk things out once they're brought up, other problems are inevitable, such as the conflict potentially escalating.

However, Mei Xue appeared just in time at this crucial juncture.

"Sister A-Neng, what are you planning to eat?"

Looking at Mei Xue wearing an apron, Texas took out a chocolate bar and put it in her mouth. If she could, she or Exusiai would like to eat the little fox, but now is obviously not the time.

"Meixue, just do whatever you like."

After replying, Texas turned to look at Sora, who seemed indifferent. Texas and Exusiai couldn't really say anything to her, since everyone was lusting after Mei Xue's body and there was no need to pretend to be so high and mighty.

"Each relying on their own abilities?"

"Each relies on their own abilities."

"Let's get him first; there seem to be quite a few people eyeing him."

Exusiai and Sora had no objection to Texas's proposal. At least they had to keep Mei Xue in check first, so that the little fox could have a chance to steal things.

The three of them had settled everything. Meanwhile, at the Reunion Movement headquarters, Frostnova looked at her adoptive father, Patriot, with some confusion, seemingly not quite understanding his decision.

"Now is a critical moment. Would it be alright if I went to provide support to Rhodes Island?"

"...Hmm, that makes sense."

Patriot nodded, but didn't tell Frostnova that Mei Xue would be meeting with Rhodes Island. Otherwise, let alone object, this white rabbit would probably have turned around and driven there on her own.

"Then who do you think would be more suitable to go?"

"Let me think about this. How about a king killer?"

"Not really. She gets lost easily, is impulsive and has a grudge against someone on Rhodes Island."

"What about Ino and Sasha?"

Frostnova spoke with some pride when mentioning her two younger brothers. Perhaps inspired by Mei Xue, Ino and Sasha trained exceptionally hard. The former became one of the captains of the Reunion Movement's logistics department, and the latter became the captain of the Phantom Squad.

"No, they are young and there are many things they don't understand and lack experience."

"Then let's go with Niyan. She has a good personality and her own set of experiences in dealing with people and things."

"can."

In fact, Patriot was waiting for Frostnova to mention Mudrock, otherwise it would seem very deliberate for him to arrange for Mudrock to meet Mei Xue at Rhodes Island.

Patriot was quite satisfied with his future granddaughter-in-law, mainly because of her personality. Mud Rock had a rather delicate and gentle side, and unlike the three troublemakers who always tried to take advantage of Mei Xue, although the children of earth and stone all liked to be with the soil, this did not prevent them from getting married.

The key is that Patriot always feels old. He stands on the battlefield only to find a way out for the infected. He is prepared to face death, but his only regret is not being able to hold his grandson. That's why he wants to find a suitable girl for Mei Xue as soon as possible.

It has to be said that Mudrock's appearance was very timely. Patriot had already figured it out: he would try to get rid of Alina and Frostnova as much as possible, and Talulah would be tied up with various official duties. Mudrock could slowly cultivate his relationship with Meixue.

In fact, Patriots even planned to arrange for Mudrock to temporarily leave Reunion and become a mercenary for Rhodes Island, responsible for secretly protecting Mei Xue while also creating more opportunities for them.

It's fair to say that the old man has gone to great lengths for Mei Xue. In fact, Ni Yan wasn't his only chosen granddaughter-in-law; there was also the girl codenamed Zao Lu who recently joined the Reunion Movement.

Although she was born into nobility, she was a girl with great ideals and aspirations. She was beautiful, young, well-educated, and of good character. If Mud Rock hadn't appeared so early, Patriot would probably have asked her to introduce Mei Xue to him.

"Then I'll go find her."

Froststar was completely unaware of her adoptive father's true intentions. She was secretly thrilled with the upcoming reunion, determined to give Meixue a good beating once she saw her. Oh, and she'd also prepare a few bottles of good wine; once she got Meixue drunk, she'd… hehe~

The chill from behind made Mei Xue, who was feeding Xiao Ke cookies in the back seat, sneeze. The little fox rubbed its nose and reached out to wipe Xiao Ke's mouth clean.

"Would you like to eat more?"

"Well……"

Xiao Ke glanced at Texas sitting in the front row. Because of her, the whole team had to split into two cars. Fortunately, the little fox's tail could produce anything, otherwise it would have been quite troublesome.

If Texas weren't around, Xiao Ke would definitely have wanted to try what the food she ate this morning tasted like, but instinct told her it was best not to bring it up at this time, so she just shook her head. After all, she had eaten so much and wasn't really hungry.

Mei Xue always showed more kindness and patience towards the innocent and naive Xiao Ke. He reached out and gently rubbed Xiao Ke's ears, then took out a comb from its tail.

"Let me comb your hair and tail; they look a bit messy."

It's really messy. It seems like Xiao Ke has been walking in the wilderness these past few days. Last night, he reluctantly took a shower, and his hair and tail were all a mess.

Okay~

Texas glanced at Mei Xue and Xiao Ke interacting intimately behind her and then paid no more attention. After all, Xiao Ke was just a silly dog ​​and the threat was negligible. In comparison, Rhodes Island, which they were going to visit later, was more worthy of attention.

Texas and Exusiai had already heard from Kal'tsit that Mei Xue had a real fiancée, and although he didn't remember those things, she was still an enemy worth taking seriously.

While combing Little Carp's hair, Mei Xue sang a lullaby, a song about the sea that Skadi had taught him last night. He had intended to teach the nameless little guy, but it had only just begun to learn to speak.

Meanwhile, in a remote town on the Iberian coast, a woman dressed in exceptionally finery walked onto the beach. She took off her hat, removed a leaden weight-like object, and threw it into the sea.

Before long, the sea creature that Mei Xue had seen in her dream last night surfaced. But this was the limit it could do. Ordinary sea creatures couldn't even come out of the water. But soon, they would evolve to a higher level, swimming onto land and into the starry sky.

"messenger……"

The woman murmured, knowing that Hai Si in front of her could understand her words, but could not reply with language, because this race had a simpler and more efficient way of communicating.

However, to her surprise, Hai Si actually spoke up.

"Amaya, I want a name."

"name?"

Although Haisi's pronunciation is still unclear, Amaya is not likely to have misheard it. It said it wanted a name, but is there any need for Haisi to be different from other individuals?

"He said that a name is necessary so that I may know who I am."

It is clear that Haisi has only recently learned to speak, but it is adapting at a speed that is hard for ordinary people to imagine, gradually becoming more fluent from its intermittent speech.

"The 'He' you're talking about, could it be...?"

"No, Isamara, it's another one, the real one, the perfect one."

At this point, Hai Si hesitated, a rare occurrence for her. She looked at Amaya, who was clearly surprised.

"He is our new evolutionary goal."

This is the result of sharing; Haisi's large group has chosen a more feasible path.

"May I ask, messenger, who exactly is He...?"

"You can't tell, or you'll die."

Chapter 169 Amiya, you look a little green on the head.

Amiya was overjoyed to learn that Mei Xue was about to arrive, her long rabbit ears swaying happily as she kept checking her appearance in the mirror to see if there was anything inappropriate.

Although she and Mei Xue were engaged, the little fox had lost many of her memories, so this would be their first meeting.

Considering that they would continue to interact in the future, Amiya hoped to leave a good first impression on Meixue, making it easier to rebuild their relationship later.

"I'll skip the eyebrow makeup, but I think the lipstick would be okay..."

Actually, I think you're already very charming.

The reflection in the mirror became Theresa's image, with a gentle smile on her face. Amiya looked at her, feeling a little shy and unsure of what to say. Now, the relationship between her and Theresa was like that of a person and their own shadow; they knew each other inside and out and were very clear about what the other was thinking.

[No need for too many embellishments, Amiya is perfect as she is. Even if he loses his memory, he could never forget everything about you.]

Theresa's comforting words calmed Amiya down. She took a breath and realized that Theresa was right. According to Suzuran, Meixue could call out Kal'tsit's name when she first met her in Lungmen, so she should remember her younger sister, or at least remember her a little.

With this in mind, Amiya regained her confidence. As a minor leader of Rhodes Island, she couldn't just stand by and worry all the time. In any case, everything was moving in a positive direction.

With Mei Xue around, Rhodes Island's future is bright. Once the Doctor is brought back, there will be hope for everything.

In the other tent, Linglan was also choosing suitable clothes. Although she had only been separated from Meixue for a few days, she did not want to leave any bad impression on the little fox. Moreover, she kept reminding herself that she must remain calm no matter what. In any case, she could not be too excited when she saw Meixue, since Amiya was still watching.

However, Liz, who was temporarily staying near the lily of the valley, didn't care much. Her legs gradually regained feeling. Although she couldn't walk like a normal person yet, she could at least move slightly, and her toes were the first to move.

When she can run freely in the future, she will definitely hold Mei Xue's hand and run with him on the grass. After running until they are tired, they will lie down on the ground together. At that time, she will hug Mei Xue's tail, or simply hug him and take a nap together, snuggling together as they drift off to sleep.

Scout, ACE, and the others on the other side were also looking forward to reuniting with Mei Xue. To be honest, everyone on Rhodes Island who knew him missed the little fox who brought them joy back then. In that oppressive period, the only thing that could soothe the smell of gunpowder and blood was Mei Xue's embrace and care.

Of course, if possible, ACE would also like to invite Mei Xue out for a couple of drinks. To be honest, it was really embarrassing for the three teams to be drunk by a little fox last time.

"Everyone seems really excited..."

Although Warfarin was taken aboard by Kal'tsit before Rhodes Island was officially established, Mei Xue had already disappeared by then, so she didn't know Mei Xue and didn't know where this little fox got such charm that most of the people came out to greet him. Was it because he was handsome?

After learning that Mei Xue would cooperate with this operation, Warfarin personally saw that the group of Rhodes Island veterans, including Kroos, had applied to participate in the mission. Even Logos, who didn't like to talk much, said that he hoped to go along just in case.

According to unreliable information gathered by Warfarin, it seems that Mei Xue and the former Great Banshee, who is also Logos' teacher, have some ambiguous relationship. At least, it seems that Theresa came to her door with a sword, demanding her return.

"Hey, I'm here!"

Scout, being a sharpshooter, had excellent eyesight and immediately spotted the unusual dust in the distance, realizing that someone was approaching.

His words made everyone's hearts jump to their throats. Several people quickly straightened their clothes and made sure that the small snacks and other gifts they had were all in good condition.

Before long, two cars appeared on the distant horizon. Amiya immediately felt something attracting her. She glanced at her engagement ring and saw it flash, clearly reacting to Mei Xue in the car.

"ACE, check if my collar is folded properly?"

"Oh, why are you so concerned about that? Look at my hair, is it sticking up?"

"Stop talking. You two better be quiet later. With your big, burly appearance, you might scare Mei Xue."

Outcast punched both of them in a huff, which effectively eased the tense atmosphere; at least Amiya calmed down.

As the car approached and stopped, the door opened, and a foot wearing stockings but sneakers stepped onto the barren ground, followed by a pale white hand.
