Talulah, I'm still a child.

Warfarin was perhaps a little tipsy, as her speech was somewhat slurred, but her meaning was still very clear: she genuinely desired Mei Xue's body.

"Tsk... That old woman Kal'tsit, she just won't let me be in charge of testing and storing Mei Xue and the Doctor's blood samples, even though I'm the blood bank manager of Rhodes Island!"

"That's true."

Gavial took a sip of his drink and nodded. Doctor and Mei Xue were the two most special people on Rhodes Island. Doctor often covered his face and his race was unknown. His information was of the highest standard on Rhodes Island. Although Mei Xue had opened up external access and everyone could see Little Fox's file, everyone knew that Little Fox definitely had secrets.

There must be something fishy about not even keeping a backup of your medical examination report.

"That's why I grabbed Mei Xue and took a couple of sips to taste it!"

Warfarin clenched her fist, looking confident and composed, which made Gavial applaud. She knew Warfarin was a woman of action; this woman had once tried to knock Skadi unconscious with a large dose of sleeping pills and then extract her blood for research.

Have you ever succeeded?

"...No, he's too fast, I can't catch him at all."

Mei Xue's speed is maxed out; when she really runs, you can't even see her tail. Warfarin can only play around with her, and even drugs don't work.

"Sigh, so that's why you can't have it. Don't you think that as long as he's yours, you can kiss him as much as you want?"

Gavial patted Warfarin on the shoulder and gave her a heartfelt lecture.

"Think about it, we're all on the same side, what's wrong with giving each other a little blood?"

This advice made Warfarin realize something. In her drunken state, she completely lost her ability to think and simply believed that Gavial was right.

"That makes sense! I'll do it right away!"

As she spoke, Warfarin took out her communicator. Gavial was worried that she wouldn't be able to find Mei Xue's number, but after glancing at it, he realized that the only person he was paying special attention to was Mei Xue. And yet he still said they weren't together? Who would believe that?

With a brief ring, the phone was quickly answered. Without giving Mei Xue any chance to speak, Warfarin shouted directly into the communicator.

"Mei Xue, listen to me! I'm lusting after you! From today onwards, you're mine!"

After saying that, Warfarin hung up the phone without waiting for the little fox to reply, and then waved her hand to everyone in the bar.

"I'm happy! This meal's on me!"

After a moment of silence, the crowd couldn't help but shout "Long live Warfarin!"

"Dr. Warfarin is awesome! I've already recorded a video, and I'll upload it to Rhodes Island's network in a bit!"

"I hope she won't do anything rash after she sobers up!"

"Don't worry, she's shameless enough."

"But I'm worried she'll get beaten to death by Dr. Kal'tsit."

"It's not like he'll die. There are plenty of people on Rhodes Island who like Mei Xue. Dr. Kal'tsit can't stop him."

Compared to the enthusiastic crowd, Warfarin simply finished speaking and collapsed. Gavial shook his head in exasperation, thinking that with such a low alcohol tolerance, she shouldn't come to bars anymore; it was a bit embarrassing.

However, she didn't expect Warfarin to confess her feelings to Meixue directly. It's true that people tend to lose their minds when they're drunk.

Chapter 337 What kind of people are on Rhodes Island?

It is said that dreams are a reflection of the soul, but Maria was not happy at all.

Even though she saw her long-lost parents in this dream, saw her uncle become as spirited as before, saw her grandfather still alive, and saw her aunt's injuries had all healed, it was all so good. Everything was fine. Her sister also got married and was with Meixue.

"Cheer up, Maria, you're the bridesmaid."

Zofia gently patted Maria's shoulder. As a bridesmaid, Maria looked stunning today, dressed in a pure white gown and light makeup. Her already beautiful face was even more striking, exuding a gentle and graceful charm, and youthful vitality, as if Maria herself were the bride at today's wedding.

But the disappointed look on her face somewhat ruined the atmosphere. Zofia just assumed that she was reluctant to see her sister get married and didn't think too much about it.

“I know you’ll miss Margaret, but she’ll stay with the Lin Guang family after the wedding. You’ve always liked Mei Xue, haven’t you? From now on, we’ll be family.”

"You don't necessarily have to marry your sister to become a family."

Maria muttered to herself, but dared not let Zofia hear what she had just said. She just felt very unhappy and inexplicably disappointed. It was clearly a good thing; her sister was getting married, and she should be giving her blessings.

But when she saw Mei Xue, dressed in a gown, standing next to Margaret, who was in a wedding dress, she instinctively felt that it was discordant, like seeing someone put Coca-Cola and Pepsi together.

Why couldn't it be me? Maria thought to herself, her girlish innocence gradually shifting towards Mei Xue amidst all the ups and downs.

As soon as she had this thought, her dream shattered. Maria opened her eyes and sat up, finding the moonlight outside to be intense.

"Hmm... it's already this late?"

Maria rubbed her head, glanced at the alarm clock and realized it was already twelve o'clock. She hadn't expected to sleep until this time. Although she was a little sleepy, she was a bit hungry because she hadn't eaten enough for dinner. Maria thought for a moment and then got out of bed to go to the kitchen.

Because there's a small shop on Rhodes Island, Mei Xue habitually keeps enough food in the kitchen so that the silly dog ​​won't come knocking on her door in the middle of the night because it can't find anything to eat.

It was a bit chilly tonight. Maria, wearing only a nightgown, rubbed her shoulders to warm herself up. Bright moonlight streamed into the corridor. Maria found a cake in the kitchen and carried it toward her room. As she passed the window, she spotted a familiar figure. She couldn't help but take a second look and realized it was Mei Xue.

Perhaps due to insomnia, Mei Xue sat alone on the swing in the courtyard, swaying back and forth. The little fox hummed a song, appearing particularly charming under the bright moonlight. Maria couldn't understand the language of the Great Yan, but Mei Xue's singing was very pleasant to hear.

"Mei Xue who gets up early gets to eat! Go to class after you've eaten!"

The song doesn't need a fixed tune; just sing it if you're happy. This is what Froststar taught Mei Xue. While singing, Mei Xue felt the mental fluctuations from the Siren Lolis. They were a bit noisy and chattering. More than a hundred voices rang in her head at the same time, and Mei Xue needed some time to get used to it.

Looking up at the bright moon overhead, Mei Xue's tail swayed gently. He couldn't help but miss his sister again. It was because he dreamed of Talulah that he couldn't sleep, but going over now would disturb Talulah's rest.

The stars surrounded the two moons. Mei Xue stared at them. For some reason, the little fox felt that the stars were avoiding his gaze, just like a child who has done something wrong will instinctively avoid looking at his parents. Was it just his imagination?

"The stars seem to have changed."

This wasn't the first time Mei Xue had looked at the starry sky. He had a hunch that the little fox knew the stars moved, but not this fast.

"Brother-in-law, aren't you asleep yet, it's so late?"

Maria came over with the cake. She was only wearing a nightgown and was a little cold, but Mei Xue wasn't wearing much either, so the little fox wasn't worried about catching a cold or anything like that.

"Couldn't sleep, so I came out to play for a while~"

Mei Xue twitched her fox ears and glanced at the cake in Maria's hand, then swung on the swing again by herself.

"Brother-in-law, would you like to eat with us?"

"No need, I'm not hungry. This piece of cake is for you, Maria."

The little fox gently shook his head, his six tails swaying adorably behind him. He had left a late-night snack for Maria because he remembered she hadn't eaten much at dinner.

"Was it because I didn't like the dinner I made?"

"Ah, no, no, although it was a bit spicy, I really liked it, it's just that I didn't have much of an appetite at the time."

Maria shook her head, then sat down next to Mei Xue, eating cake while watching him swing.

Despite Mei Xue's personal confirmation, Maria still couldn't see any difference between Mei Xue and ordinary people. Anyone who came would probably not believe that this little fox was older than all the countries of Terra combined.

A gust of cold wind blew by, making Maria shiver. The cake on her lap fell to the ground. She glanced at Mei Xue; the only problem with the cold wind for her was that it messed up her hair.

But Maria soon felt warm again. Mei Xue's two tails stretched out and wrapped around her, giving her an indescribable sense of warmth and security that made her feel very comfortable.

Are you still hungry?

Mei Xue twitched her fox ears, and Maria nodded. She was indeed still hungry; she hadn't even eaten a few bites of cake yet, which was a real shame.

However, being able to cling to Mei Xue's tail made her feel that everything was worthwhile.

"Let's go then~ I'll make you a midnight snack~"

Mei Xue smiled slightly, like a warm spring breeze brushing against Maria's heart. Maria blushed a little, secretly attributing it to the cold, and then followed Mei Xue into the house.

Meanwhile, on Rhodes Island, after hanging Warfarin on the bridge to keep the Doctor company in the cold wind, Kal'tsit returned to her research lab. She planned to concoct the drug that worked on Mei Xue again, the one that caused Rosemary and Lily of the Valley to go out of control.

With the first success, the second and third times would be much easier, but Kal'tsit no longer had the raw materials to create a fourth one.

Although Rhodes Island is not lacking in medical supplies, Mei Xue's blood is almost gone and must be used sparingly. Once this is gone, no medicine will be effective for Mei Xue.

Mei Xue's body is very special; it basically rejects all drugs, whether harmful or beneficial, and the same applies to alcohol. They are all absorbed by Mei Xue in another form.

Of course, as long as you tell the little fox, he will happily nod and agree, and then a little blood will be drawn from his pale face, which is trembling with fear at the sight of the syringe.

But Kal'tsit wouldn't allow Meixue to bleed again, not unless absolutely necessary. She knew better than anyone what kind of disaster that would bring. She had blood drawn once before for a medical check-up, but Kal'tsit paid a considerable price then, and that was only on the premise that she didn't have any ill intentions towards Meixue.

Mei Xue is so cute that it makes you want to tease her. Kal'tsit can't deny that she likes to tease him, even though it's a bit underhanded.

"Dr. Kal'tsit, are you there? Members from Rhine Lab have arrived."

Aya's voice came from the doorway. Kal'tsit looked at the pile of equipment in front of her and thought to herself that these guys really came at the worst possible time; it was already past midnight.

However, this is actually unavoidable, because Rhodes Island is currently traveling at high speed and will only slow down at night to reduce the load on the system and ensure the normal rest of the crew. Otherwise, it simply cannot catch up during the day.

"Please entertain them for me for now, I'll be there soon."

"Yes."

The people from Rhine Labs who came this time were quite important, requiring Kal'tsit to personally receive them. However, this was within her expectations. After learning that the Doctor and Mei Xue were behind Rhine Labs' efforts, she immediately understood the source of Rhine Labs' goodwill towards Rhodes Island, and even went so far as to not shy away from Saria's presence, allowing Ifrit to stay here for a long time.

"Mmm!"

"Eve!"

Ifrit and Muirses hugged each other happily. Although the former was a fire user and the latter was a water magic user, they got along quite well and had interacted with each other back in Rhine Lab.

"Hey Eve, why aren't you asleep yet?"

At this time of day, the children should all be asleep, and Ifrit just scratched her head a little embarrassedly.

"I was just finishing my homework when I heard you arrived at Rhodes Island, so I rushed over. Hey, Miu Miu, what are you looking at?"

Ifrit noticed that Muirsey's eyes were constantly darting around, but it didn't seem like she was looking at Rhodes Island.

"Hehe, it's nothing, it's just that I heard there's a really cute little boy named Vulpo on Rhodes Island, so..."

"Mei Xue isn't on Rhodes Island, so don't even think about going to find him."

Before Muerseth could finish speaking, Saria immediately saw through Muerseth's thoughts. As old friends, they understood each other very well and knew what the other was thinking. Back then, because of Mei Xue's matter, Muerseth was often chased and beaten, and Saria's bed was often soaked with water by her.

"Tch, this is so boring."

Upon hearing that Mei Xue was not on Rhodes Island, Muirse felt that much of the fun was missing, and dragged Ifrit aside to catch up.

"It's been a long time, Saria."

After Muirsey left, Dorothy smiled and went up to greet Saria. They seemed unchanged; Saria was as resolute as ever, and Dorothy always wore a gentle smile.

"Why did Christensen send you here this time?"

"According to her, my experiment requires the assistance of Rhodes Island, and Muirsey just wants to meet the Mei Xue you all often talk about."

As the last subject director to join, Mei Xue had already left by the time Dorothy arrived at Rhine Lab. She didn't get to see the little fox who had blessed most of Rhine Lab's experiments to go smoothly, but she knew that Mei Xue was special. With just a little blood, she restored Ifrit to health from the brink of death, suppressed Oripathy, and even reached an equal agreement with Balrog.
