Xia Yuan tried hard to stand up from the mud, and pulled Mei aside the moment she was about to bend down to check on her condition. However, he was too exhausted to dodge, and could only rely on his hands to resist the [Sleeping Beauty] that was thrown at him.

"Mr. Xia Yuan?!"

"Big brother!?"

As the ruler of a collective of thousands of malicious people, Miss Herrscher never expected that Xia Yuan would stand up. She wanted to completely get rid of Raiden Mei, but she didn't want to get rid of her big brother, because the other party wanted to become her companion.

【Damn! 】

Miss Ruler of Law couldn't help but look a little annoyed and anxious. She had thrown it with all her might, and now she had to use the silk thread to slow it down as much as possible. When the blade was about to reach Xia Yuan's chest, Sleeping Beauty finally stopped and fell on the wet ground.

[It was a close call. I almost gave my big brother...]

There was no time for Miss Herrscher to breathe. When Aunt Mei realized that there was still a puppet that had not been cleaned up, a flash of lightning appeared and a sword blade fell from the sky and pierced through the opponent, causing Miss Herrscher to completely lose the ability to think.

thump—

At the same time, Xia Yuan, who had escaped the disaster, fell heavily into the mud.

Now, Xia Yuan understood that what the Lady Herrscher of Knowledge said about the black spot on his forehead was not a lie, and the sword was about to penetrate his chest.

Hearing the noise behind her, Aunt Mei, who had put her knife back at her waist, hurriedly helped Xia Yuan, who was lying in the mud and unable to move. Looking at the scars on his hands and the blood oozing from his chest, an inexplicable feeling of sadness surged in her heart.

It was clearly little Greyshut who asked me to save Mr. Xia Yuan... but in the end I was saved by him. How am I going to explain this to little Greyshut later? It was all my fault for being too careless.

Xia Yuan raised his head weakly and said softly: "Mei... I'm glad to see that you are not hurt."

"Mr. Xia Yuan, please stop talking for now."

"Heh~ I always feel that your voice is particularly gentle now, Mei. If only you could talk to me like this before, ahem... OK, it's so cold, Mei, am I going to die?"

"Idiot, I won't let anything happen to you."

She now understood why Bronya called the other person an idiot and why she stood in front of her without caring about her own safety.

"No, the body temperature is too low..."

Perhaps the influence of the potion still remained in the body. The fingertips under the cloak lightly touched the other person's forehead, and then quickly retracted. Aunt Mei untied her cloak and wrapped it tightly around Xia Yuan.

Mei's body temperature still remained on the cloak, making Xia Yuan feel a little warm.

"He should be saved, right?"

But how did Mei know he was here? Xia Yuan had many questions in his mind and wanted to ask her, but Mei stopped him softly.

"I know you still have a lot of questions in your mind, Mr. Xia Yuan, but we are not out of danger yet. Based on my understanding of the Ruler of Domination, he will definitely not give up and will continue to send more puppets. We should not stay here for long.

Chapter 445 Mei, old aunt? !

"Mr. Xia Yuan, can you still take temporary action now?"

Feeling the weakness in his calves, the numbness in his hands, and the burning pain in his chest, Xia Yuan shook his head bitterly. He didn't know how long he had been running under the pursuit of Miss Ruler of Law... Then he felt his body suddenly lighten.

"Mei, what are you doing?"

Xia Yuan asked in a panic, only to see Aunt Mei holding him in her arms like a princess.

"While the Ruler of Domination is not chasing us... take Mr. Xia Yuan and leave here as soon as possible to reunite with little Gray."

It was little Grayshu? But why did Grayshu know where he was? It seemed that he could only ask her face to face later. But now he had something more important to do.

"Um, Mei, can you try holding me in a different way? For example, hold me on your back. It always feels a little weird when you hold me like this."

He is already such a grown-up, but he always feels awkward and a little embarrassed when Mei holds him in a princess hug.

"What? Mr. Xia Yuan, are you shy, or are you afraid that Bronya will laugh at you?

"Don't worry, I won't tell Bronya about this. Just keep it as a little secret between the two of us. Of course, the premise is that you, Mr. Xia Yuan, hold me tight, adjust your breathing, wrap yourself tightly in your cloak, and try not to let your body temperature continue to lose. Promise me, okay?"

Looking at Aunt Mei's eyes that were playful yet caring, Xia Yuan couldn't help but glance away, not daring to look at her. He nodded gently and said "hmm".

Is this still Aunt Mei who once electrocuted me?

What's going on with this tender feeling? It's a bit too foul...

After obtaining Xia Yuan's consent, Aunt Mei took Xia Yuan, who was unable to walk, and ran quickly towards the city before the Ruler of Rule sent out the puppet. She had to reach a safe area in the city and reunite with little Gray before the other's body became hypothermic.

She would not let the other party fall here, otherwise she would not be able to look directly into her own heart, let alone face Bronya.

Perhaps recalling the past memories, Xia Yuan's figure gradually overlapped with that of Padofils. Mei hugged Xia Yuan tighter, as if trying to maintain the other's body temperature with her body temperature as much as possible.

I didn't expect that the potion I drank would actually work and come in handy in such a situation.

Aunt Mei's body was feeling unbearably hot... In such heavy rain, it was like a moving heat source that greatly alleviated the loss of Xia Yuan's body temperature.

Tread-tap-

Mei quickly ran towards the city, splashing puddles of water on the ground. Xia Yuan had never felt so safe and relaxed. Was this the feeling of being protected? It seemed pretty good~

"Hmm? What does this feel like, so soft..."

From time to time, a soft and elastic touch came from his cheek, making Xia Yuan feel as if he was wrapped in a warm and happy ocean, as if being held in a princess hug by Mei was not as bad and embarrassing as he had imagined.

Sure enough, in such a rainy day, it is best to hide in bed and sleep. I really want to sleep...

While running, in addition to observing the surrounding environment and whether the Ruler of Rule had sent out puppets to catch up with her, Aunt Mei was also keeping an eye on the condition of Xia Yuan in her arms. She saw drops of blood flowing from his fingertips to the ground, and then washed to the distance behind her with the rolling rain.

No...If he continues like this, even if he can barely maintain his body temperature, Mr. Xia Yuan might fall into a coma due to excessive blood loss.

The wound didn't look that obvious before. Did Mr. Xia Yuan's wound get worse while he was running? He couldn't delay any longer, but there were no medical facilities available. He could only temporarily bandage and treat Mr. Xia Yuan.

But just when Aunt Mei was about to stop and help Xia Yuan bandage his wound...

Crunch, crunch, crunch—

A large number of puppets controlled by the Ruler of Herrscher rushed out in groups from the bushes, their eyes fixed on Raiden Mei.

[Raiden Mei, I will imprison you in the Domination Theater and make you my toy for life! ]

[It is better to just deal with her and avoid any more trouble. ]

[Stop, old lady in front, hand over the big brother! ]

[That’s right, he is our future companion, not yours, old aunt.]

[Oh, my Mei, you just stabbed Lily with that knife so fast and fiercely that it made her whole brain tremble. I'm so excited. Can you do it to Lily again? ]

Countless puppets have their own ideas, but they all have only one goal.

The Ruler held her cheeks with both hands, her expression full of confusion and revealing the purest desires from the bottom of her heart.

"Why at this time......"

She no longer cared about Miss Ruler calling her "old aunt".

Aunt Mei understood the current situation clearly. She could no longer stop to treat Mr. Xia Yuan's wound. She had to get rid of the puppet controlled by the Ruler of Rule behind her as soon as possible.

"Mei, I'm so sleepy~"

Xia Yuan's weak and faint voice reached Aunt Mei's ears. Seeing that the other party wanted to close his eyes, she had to keep Mr. Xia Yuan as awake as possible and not let him fall into a coma in this condition of hypothermia.

"Can you say something appropriate to cheer up Mr. Xia Yuan?"

"But what to say?"

"What can cheer the other person up......"

Mei kept recalling her experiences with Xia Yuan until she remembered that day on the beach when he seemed to want to invite her into his arms, but she stopped him by using electric shock. Although it was a little hard to put into words, the stronger obsession might help Mr. Xia Yuan cheer up and get back on track.

"Mr. Xia Yuan, do you remember what happened on the beach?"

"What happened on the beach..."

Xia Yuan seemed to recall something, his body shuddered instinctively, and he dispelled the sleepiness in his eyes. He looked up at the other party cautiously and said:

"Mei, Mei, you're not going to electrocute me again, are you? I was just playing a little joke on you at that time, ahem... the things that happened in the past are all in the past."

Chapter 446 Reflection

For some reason, Mei always felt that in Mr. Xia Yuan's eyes, she seemed to be more terrifying than the Ruler of Rule who was chasing after her.

“I shouldn’t be that scary…”

At this moment, Aunt Mei suddenly recalled Kiana's evaluation of her.

[Of course, Meiyi is sometimes even scarier than my dad, oh no, even than my period! Theresa doesn't supervise me all the time, but Meiyi, you urge me to study through video calls all day long. Being on the moon feels like being back at St. Freya's College!]

No wonder Kiana never asked me to play games with her these days, and she never even contacted me on her own initiative.

Well... she admitted that she was sometimes a little harsh, but that was also for the other party's sake. Only with a lot of theoretical knowledge and foundation can one better master the power of the end, but for now, she wanted to keep Mr. Xia Yuan awake as much as possible.

"Mr. Xia Yuan, if you can stay awake and hold on until we get rid of Miss Ruler, I will fulfill the request you made on the beach that day. How about that?"

Xia Yuan still vaguely remembered the joke he made that day, which seemed to be that he wanted to hold Mei in his arms, and there was still room for her in his arms, but now the situation seems to have been reversed. He didn't expect that one day he would be held in Mei's arms, and it was so sudden.

Suddenly I recalled the interaction and conflict I had with the Ruler in the alley...

Xia Yuan had some kind of psychological trauma. He felt guilty towards Bronya. If Meiyi could be as gentle as she is now, maybe he would jump for joy? But now, he only felt sorry for Bronya.

However, Mei Raiden's words still relieved Xia Yuan's sleepiness and fatigue a lot.

Xia Yuan raised his head and observed Mei's expression with some curiosity. Was this something she would say to him?

"Um...Mr. Xia Yuan, could you please stop staring at my face expressionlessly? There shouldn't be any dirt left on my face just now, right?"

As soon as she said this, Aunt Mei felt a little regretful. Was what she just said too abrupt? Or was it because of her attitude towards Mr. Xia Yuan in the past that he did not believe that she would fulfill her promise... Was her image in his mind still too bad?

"Well....."

But just being looked at directly by the other party would make Mei's heart become unbearable, and even the burning sensation was corroding her body. Fortunately, the continuous heavy rain in the sky alleviated the heat, and this heat could also be transmitted to Xia Yuan's body through her hands.

“I’m sorry, I just didn’t expect Mei to say something like this to me, and I feel a little happy.

"But I know everything, Mei, you are afraid that if I fall asleep now, I might not wake up again, so you deliberately said something to make me feel happy, but please don't worry... I won't fall asleep."

"Am I being comforted by the other party?"

Aunt Mei suddenly had a feeling that even though she was worried about Mr. Xia Yuan's physical condition, she was being comforted by him. This feeling was very familiar to her, just like Kiana who was always standing in front of her and always smiling.

In Mei's sight, Xia Yuan's figure began to overlap with Kiana's, and even the tone of their speech became exactly the same.

"I always feel that Mei is gentle and reliable now. You suddenly appeared in front of me like a hero and rescued me from the hands of the Ruler who was almost exhausted. I thought there was no hope at that time, and even prepared to leave a will to Bronya. I really don't know who will marry such a gentle and virtuous Mei in the future? It's a pity that I already have Yaya~"

"Is she so reliable in Mr. Xia Yuan's eyes? As for marriage, she has not considered it yet......"

"Wait, something seems wrong!"

Is this something Mr. Xia Yuan would say under normal circumstances?

With doubts, seeing the other party talking to her, Aunt Mei freed her hands a little, stretched out three fingers and waved them in front of Xia Yuan's eyes, and asked softly: "Mr. Xia Yuan, please tell me how much is this?"

"Of course it's four. Uh... that's not right. It seems to be five?"

Hearing Xia Yuan's answer, Aunt Mei's heart sank a little, and she quickly asked: "Mr. Xia Yuan, how do you feel now?"

"Hmm, I feel quite energetic. Not only am I not that sleepy anymore, but my limbs and chest don't hurt as much as before. I feel like I can get down and move around. Mei, do you think my body's recovery speed is different from that of ordinary people?"

Aunt Mei knew in her heart that this was not what Mr. Xia Yuan said, that she was different from ordinary people, but a flash of brilliance...

Looking at Xia Yuan who was becoming extremely excited and active in her arms, Mei pursed her lips and comforted him with a white lie: "Yes, maybe it's because you have Honkai adaptability that you can recover so quickly, Mr. Xia Yuan."

But she ran faster than before and headed straight for the city. She had to get rid of the puppet controlled by the Ruler of Rule as soon as possible.

Miss Ruler of Herrscher seemed a little annoyed when she saw Mei walking away.

[Raiden Mei, are you running so fast because you remember to reincarnate? If you rush to report to hell, we won't stop you, but you have to hand over your big brother first.]

[Why don't you say that it's because we have short legs and can't run fast? ]

[Shut up, you traitor, are you still on our side? ]

[Can you guys stop arguing? Look, the big brother seems to be waving at us again~]

[If there is something wrong with your eyes, go and find a replacement doll. That is clearly the middle finger raised by the big brother to us. ]

[Big brother’s middle finger?! I wonder what it would taste like to lick it~]

Mei glanced behind her and saw that she had not distanced herself from the Ruler of Rule. She didn't know when Mr. Xia Yuan's last breath would be reflected back to her body, maybe a minute later, or maybe half an hour later... Mei couldn't help but feel anxious.

Considering that the other party didn't seem to intend to hurt Mr. Xia Yuan, with the idea of ​​trying, Mei communicated with the Ruler Lady who was chasing closely behind her: "I think you don't want to hurt Mr. Xia Yuan either. We should agree on this point. At least let Mr. Xia Yuan get adequate treatment first..."

Aunt Mei was interrupted by the Ruler behind her before she could finish her words.
