Jiang Si said to the confident and insightful Shu Xubai with a hint of annoyance, "Aren't you afraid that the chicks will hear this and, in a fit of anger, break off with you and cut off your food supply?"
Shu Xubai, through the screen, was like an old peacock spreading its most dazzling tail feathers, all flamboyant and smug, with the corners of his mouth curling up in the most triumphant smile, "So what if he hears it? What am I afraid of? I'm not afraid of anything."
"If you ask why I'm so confident, it's because I know he's my food. He almost killed me once because of his desire for immortality. We'll call it even."
"Moreover, and most importantly, in this short life of a few hundred years, he could not find someone as good as me, someone who would indulge him so much and be so devoted to him."
"Similarly, for thousands of years, apart from you, I have not found blood that suits my taste as well as meat that makes my mouth water. So, for the sake of my appetite, unless he kills you, I will spoil him and indulge him no matter what he does. Just treat him like a child and let him play."
Ginger shreds: "..."
Treat him like a child.
Let's play.
This old vampire is so damn insightful, even more insightful than Bo Jichen who lives a very clear life.
So... only she doesn't understand, only she has lived thousands of years in vain.
Is Shu Xubai the true embodiment of a carefree, playful attitude towards life?
"What, are you going to forgive Agareth?" Shu Xubai saw Jiang Si remain silent through the screen: "If you want to forgive, then forgive. It's about time. You've been angry for almost two years, and your baby is already eight or nine months old."
“You’ve lived for thousands of years, and he’s only a few decades old. Just treat him like a child. If he makes you angry, beat him up. Once you feel good and satisfied, forgive him.”
"If you're in a bad mood or feeling uncomfortable, if one meal isn't enough, then two, and if two aren't enough, then three. He's just a kid, as long as he can make you comfortable and happy, that's enough."
Facing the insightful and clear-headed Shu Xubai, Jiang Si exhaled a deep breath: "Shu Xubai..."
Shu Xubai interrupted her, reminding her, "Wait, wait, don't call me by my full name, I'm not used to it!"
"How shameless!" Jiang Si interrupted and scolded directly, "You're only happy when I call you an old, dead vampire. Can't you act like a human being?"
Shu Xubai snorted and revealed a smug smile: "I am not human. I am a noble and elegant vampire, with golden werewolf blood flowing in my veins. My vampire subjects call me Godfather, and my werewolf subjects call me Chief."
Jiang Si made a gesture as if spitting out yesterday's leftovers: "Your vampire fans are all dead, and your golden wolf people no longer exist. A hero doesn't dwell on past glories, and besides, if you were really brave back then, you wouldn't have been captured and thrown into the lab."
The elegant and noble vampire, whose entire body was hard, said: "Was I captured and taken to a laboratory? No, I was just bored and looking for something to do."
"If I hadn't found something to do, I wouldn't have come across such delicious food as you, right?"
“Yes, yes, you’re right about everything,” Jiang Si agreed perfunctorily. “Be serious, let me ask you a question.”
Shu Xubai let out a soft "Ouch!", his rebellious nature evident in his impatience: "Speak quickly if you have something to say, or shut up if you have something to say. I haven't eaten yet today."
The implication is that I've arranged to drink blood from the chicks today, so don't whine and delay things, or you'll interfere with my blood-drinking.
Jiang Si understood his meaning perfectly well and asked, "You old codger, you said you want to treat them like children, just play with them and have fun. But if you fall in love with him, his life isn't eternal, he can't be with you forever, you'll be sad..."
"Stop!" Shu Xubai interrupted Jiang Si: "Will you fall in love with me?"
Jiang Si was taken aback: "No."
Shu Xubai spread his hands: "Then that settles it. If you won't fall in love with me, how could I fall in love with my food?"
Jiang Si suddenly smiled: "You're just being stubborn."
Shu Xubai grinned, his skin as thick as a rock: "Besides being stubborn, I'm tough all over, you know that."
Ginger shreds: "???"
I'm sorry, she really doesn't know.
"Alright, alright, stop worrying yourself. What are you doing? I'll come find you as soon as I'm done here, take you back to Earth, and help rebuild it." Shu Xubai said, as if he'd just thought of something, reminding Jiang Si, "By the way, that guy Agares is pretty good. We need his help to rebuild Earth. Don't get stuck in a dead end. I want you to be happy."
The child... is not as important as her. The child will not live forever. In this world, only he and she will live forever and have endless years.
Therefore... in the endless years, happiness is the most important thing.
Jiang Si nodded and reminded him, "I know. Be careful and don't talk too much. Don't crash and burn and have nowhere to cry. I'll laugh at you for it."
Shu Xubai snorted loudly, "Mind your own business and don't worry about me. I'm a legend."
Jiang Si cut off the quantum computer directly, unwilling to look at Shu Xubai's pale face, which looked as if he had been dead for thousands of years.
After hanging up the communication, Jiang Si shut down her personal computer, opened the sunroof of the aircraft, lowered the seat, lay down on it, rested her head on her hand, and gazed at the blue sky and white clouds, lost in thought.
Day and night passed in the blink of an eye. A day, two days, several days went by. The aircraft warned that it was low on energy and could only sustain itself for another half hour. Jiang Si then sat up, turned on her personal computer again, and made a call to Bo Jichen.
The call was connected instantly, and Bo Jichen's exaggerated voice came from the personal terminal: "My goodness, if you hadn't taken my spaceship, if my spaceship hadn't been able to locate you, Agares would have been looking for you like a mad dog."
Jiang Si smiled brightly, "Bo Jichen, you said a few days ago that you would find me a little lover. Here, I want a little lover who is cunning and infuriating."
Bo Jichen's eyes lit up: "Okay, go to the military headquarters and find Agares now. I guarantee that when you get to the military headquarters, the little lover I found for you will also be there!"
