Talulah, I'm still a child.

"This is it. Although this is the first time I've seen it, Mei Xue mentioned it to me before. Their race is very special. Apart from their original form, which we don't know what it looks like, there are only the two of them, the brother and sister."

"Therefore, it's impossible for Mei Xue to really have a child... cough, you know, if it were that easy, Kal'tsit and the Doctor would have been mothers long ago. Back in the Tower of Babel, everything was available except for this kind of safety measure."

"This child is more like a part of Mei Xue's power than a new life, so although Talulah is pregnant, it may be a long time before she shows any signs of pregnancy."

After listening to Lilia's long explanation, Frostnova finally summarized it into one sentence: Talulah is going to be a mother, which means that she and Alina are going to be aunts.

(Suddenly I feel that choosing Mei Xue was the right decision. Otherwise, I would have to become an aunt without even having someone I like, which would be terrible, especially since I'm already so old...)

As someone over thirty, Frostnova was somewhat anxious, but upon reflection, Talulah's pregnancy was a done deal, and no one could change it. However, Mei Xue probably didn't know about it.

But more than anything else, there was one question she was really curious about.

"Lilia, how...how do you know all this so clearly?"

Something's not right, something's really wrong with this person. Although Frostnova knew that Lilia had come to Reunion because of Mei Xue and the Doctor's arrangement, she initially thought that Lilia was like Chalk and the others.

“When I was little, Louisa always pestered me, saying she hoped to have a cute little sister. But at that time, the only one I liked was Mei Xue. I tried many times. Later I found out that this was the reason. Sigh... It's a pity that I am an old man after all. I can only hope that my daughter will be strong enough to win Mei Xue over. She used to blame me for keeping Mei Xue, saying that Mei Xue is my son-in-law, not her father.”

"mom!"

Ya Ye, or rather Louisa, was still very embarrassed to have her past embarrassing history exposed, especially her feelings for Mei Xue. Now that she thought about it, she really wished she could go back in time and strangle herself. Back then, she didn't understand anything and stupidly stumbled upon her mother and Mei Xue's affair. Ah, just thinking about it makes her blush.

But deep down, I inexplicably hoped that I would be the one to suppress Mei Xue at that time. It's such a contradiction.

"Actually... I don't think Mei Xue herself realized it. It must have been an unconscious behavior, which is why the child is developing so slowly. If Mei Xue had deliberately adjusted it, then it would probably be around ten months."

It's clear that Lilia and Meixue spent a lot of time discussing how to help the little foxes expand their population. Frostnova is too lazy to even comment on her words anymore. Now, a very important question is facing everyone.

Talulah's pregnancy could not be kept secret from everyone. The main problem was that if she continued to force herself to temporarily forget her longing for Meixue by doing a lot of heavy official duties every day, it would not be good for either her or the child. The key was that Meixue had to be informed of this, and the little fox had to know.

"So, from now on, let the leader rest well. It would be best to relax for a while. If she stays with the Reunion Movement, she'll probably start working herself to the bone again."

These days, workaholics have become Talulah's traits. Only Alina in the Reunion Movement can keep her in check. Now Alina is in a meeting again. Sigh, but thankfully there are Sirens around. They can promptly inform the Sirens representatives there so they can pass on the news to Alina, or even tell Mei Xue directly.

“Call the Sirens over, they’ll definitely know about this… wait, no, let’s just hold a meeting of the Reunion Movement’s executives.”

I never expected this cadre meeting to start like this. Frostnova couldn't help but cover her face. Now, let alone taking the lead, Talulah has already entered the Hall of Fame.

Meanwhile, in Victoria, as dusk settled, Mei Xue prepared to go out and gently patted Cecilia's head.

"Sweetie~ I'm going out to buy something. Can you stay with Jenny?"

With her tail swaying gently, Mei Xue ran her fingers along the little angel's halo. Cecilia liked this; the halo seemed to feel more comfortable to touch than her hair.

"Can't we go together?"

"Well……"

Personally, Mei Xue felt it wouldn't work because what he was about to do was quite important, and he didn't want Cecilia to see anything unpleasant.

"Can my brother bring me a cake when he comes back?"

Seeing that Mei Xue seemed a little troubled, Cecilia chose to give up. In this respect, she was just as sensible as Mei Xue, which was heartbreaking. The little fox reached out and gently rubbed her head, nodding to indicate that she could.

"I'll bring you the best cake."

"Okay~ then come back soon, brother, be careful on the road."

"Meow~"

This time, Mandra didn't seem to have any intention of staying with Cecilia. She was lounging on Mei Xue's shoulder in a lazy manner. However, Mei Xue wasn't worried because Gawain had been secretly protecting the little angel. The big golden dog seemed to have a special fondness for the little angel.

According to Gawain's own words: This child is so much cuter than Vina was when she was little. Although she is clingy, she is obedient and sensible, and she even brushes their fur. As for Vina? She's not familiar with her at all.

Anyway, those golden retrievers (actually lions) are practically spoiling the little angel rotten. If they weren't afraid of Mei Xue, they wouldn't be hiding so far away. Of course, in Mei Xue's eyes, they weren't hiding at all; they were always in the alley next door.

————————————————————————————————————————

"How dare you come here? Is this a place for someone like you?"

In the dark alley, a scene of utter ordinariness unfolded: several men in Hill County military police uniforms punched and kicked an infected person, nearly beating him unconscious.

Hillshire does not belong to any Grand Duke and is considered a neutral city, but this territory was once the domain of the Drak royal family, and the ruins of the former palace of King Gael are not far away. The locals of Hillshire are mostly Tara people, who are commonly known as descendants of King Gael.

But nowadays, the troops stationed in Little Hills don't consider themselves Tara people. Rather, the conflict between the Tara and the Victorians has long since reached an irreconcilable stage.

Given this level of discrimination, and being an infected person, the military and police were even less likely to show him any leniency. In fact, they wouldn't be punished even if they killed someone. Colonel Hamilton had a particular disdain for the Tara people, especially the infected, and might even give them money to buy them drinks if he was in a good mood, since such situations had occurred before.

Originally, Fengpi came out today to continue the investigation, intending to talk to these officers, but when she saw this scene, she was furious and was about to step forward to stop them, but she stopped in her tracks.

Why did you hit him?

Someone asked this question; it was a very pleasant child's voice. They didn't subconsciously think about why there was a child there; they simply answered according to their own instincts.

"There's no reason, I'm just in a bad mood. Anyway, these lowly Tara people are infected, so no one will care even if I kill them. Tsk, they even got my shoes dirty."

Looking at the bloodstains on his feet, the leading officer spat on the ground and reached into the infected man's arms to take a wallet.

"How could a guy like that have such a nice wallet? It must be stolen. Turn it in!"

Did you see him steal it, or do you have evidence?

There wasn't much money in the wallet. The leading officer glanced at it, frowned, and planned to kick it again.

"Damn it, this little bit of money isn't even enough for us to drink, you poor bastard, don't let me see you again!"

But the kick didn't go out. For some reason, the thought just suddenly disappeared, and that pleasant yet somewhat noisy sound came again.

“My sister said that soldiers are supposed to protect ordinary people. It’s wrong for you to bully people while wearing this uniform.”

"Tsk... Forget about the Tara people, can the infected even be considered human? Little thing, if you bother me again..."

The enraged soldiers turned around, intending to teach the troublesome child a lesson in a physical sense. However, when they saw Mei Xue's eyes clearly, they were all stunned.

Cold and indifferent, as if looking at air, yet beneath that coldness lay a furious anger that made one afraid to meet their gaze. What kind of eyes were these? The deep blue pupils turned into a dazzling gold because of the anger in their hearts.

Mei Xue gets angry many times. She gets angry when people say she's short or not smart, but very few people or things can really make this little fox feel anger.

Mei Xue was already extremely displeased with this behavior, not to mention that the other party's series of insults against the infected had touched a raw nerve. You must know that everyone on Rhodes Island and most of the Reunion Movement, especially his beloved Talulah, were infected. He could not tolerate such insults.

So these people's thinking didn't involve any fancy magic or sophisticated assassination techniques; it was simply because Mei Xue was unhappy that their fates were severed.

Death came silently. Several officers felt a sharp pain in their hearts, collapsed to the ground convulsing, and lost all life within seconds.

"Meow~"

Mandela felt pleased by this scene. As someone who had been persecuted by nobles, resulting in the breakdown of her family and forced to live in the sewers, she felt these officers were no good either.

If there's anything to complain about, it's that she should have been the one to do it. The master's speed is truly astounding. No, perhaps Mei Xue didn't even intentionally want these people to die; it's just that his current strength is too unreasonable, and even the slightest emotional fluctuation can cause extremely serious consequences.

The sky darkened, threatening rain. Fengdi was at a loss for words. She noticed that there was another person behind Meixue, and that was Lafshini.

He took some money from his tail and put it in the wallet. Mei Xue then treated his Oripathy and wounds. He knew that Bagpipe was watching and that there were people behind him, but he had seen this kind of thing many times when he traveled all over Terra with the Doctor.

But after doing all that, Mei Xue suddenly froze on the spot.

"This is……"

At Qinliu's home, she still didn't know how to get along with this shy little angel. Although Cecilia was very polite, everyone could see her resistance to the environment.

However, just as Qinliu was about to use the cake to bring herself closer to the little angel, she noticed that the little angel was smiling for some reason. It was a smile that she didn't quite understand, and the next second the smile turned into surprise.

"How could this be..."

Chapter 90 Mei Xue is going to be a father

For Talulah, there are some things she has always looked forward to but is also somewhat afraid of, such as becoming a mother.

She really wanted to start a new family with Mei Xue, and she could foresee how happy she would be after officially marrying the little fox. It would probably be a life she could never get tired of.

But Talulah was conflicted. On one hand, she felt that having a child would be a good thing for the family. On the other hand... she had to admit that she wasn't cut out to be a mother, because she couldn't help but feel a little jealous of her unborn daughter.

It's conceivable that if Mei Xue could spoil Cecilia, a girl with no blood relation and whom she had never met before, so much, then if she really had a daughter, Mei Xue's already limited intelligence would probably disappear to almost nothing.

Moreover, the conflict and struggle between the Reunion Movement and Ursus has reached a critical moment. It would be really inappropriate for her to get pregnant at this time. The main reason is that Talulah couldn't accept such a change in a short time. Coupled with the fatigue from working for days, she fainted.

"Ugh... I feel like I just had a nightmare. My head hurts."

Talu stretched her hand to rub her temples, but a comfortable sensation from her temples made her already half-closed eyes squint again.

Yes, that's it!

It's very comfortable. The pillow is soft and has a nice fragrance. The blanket is also very warm and seems a bit fluffy, but I don't dislike it.

"I'm glad my sister likes it."

"Hmm~ I like Mei Xue the most... Hey, Mei Xue?"

Upon hearing the voice, Talulah, who was still in a daze, instantly woke up. She then realized that although she was lying on the bed, to be more precise, she was lying on Mei Xue's lap. No wonder it felt so comfortable; what was covering her was naturally the little fox's tail.

Am I dreaming?

"It's not a dream."

Mei Xue's smile had a particularly reassuring power, and the little fox reached out and pinched its own cheek.

"It hurts."

"...What an idiot! Ugh, does it still hurt?"

Talulah reached out and stroked the spot where Mei Xue had just pinched her. Her heart felt exceptionally peaceful, and all her anxiety and stress vanished like floating clouds. Only when she was with this little fox could she forget all the pressure, forget her identity, and be an ordinary person.

"It doesn't hurt anymore, hehe~"

Meixue took Talulah's hand and placed it on her head, nuzzling her affectionately, just like before. This made Talulah feel even better. No, whenever she saw Meixue, she was basically in a state of excitement.

"Weren't you in Victoria? Why are you here?"

"About half an hour ago I felt a very... familiar yet unfamiliar reaction. Since I was next to my sister, I came over."

As she spoke, Mei Xue's gaze slid down Talulah's face, and the latter immediately understood that it was neither a dream nor a hallucination. She reached out and gently covered her lower abdomen.

"So...you can sense him?"

"It should be said that it is her. I am the only individual, so our child will try to show characteristics different from me. The gender is basically determined to be a girl, and she will probably look more like the older sister."

The little fox was very shy, his fair skin glowing with an alluring red. Talulah couldn't help but reach out and hook her arms around his neck, then gently nibble on Mei Xue's cheek, biting very carefully, as if afraid of leaving any marks.

Having grown accustomed to Talulah's way of playing, Mei Xue's tail swayed gently, always ready to protect her.

After waiting a few minutes, Talulah, having had her fill of playing, wiped the drool off Mei Xue's face. In all the years she had known him, Mei Xue's face hadn't changed at all—no, it had become even more attractive. Talulah couldn't help but hug him tightly, burying her head in the little fox's chest.

"..."

"Sister, are you crying?"
