Chapter 57



After making sure that he hadn't been exposed, Su Su breathed a sigh of relief. He was so scared that he thought he had been recognized.

But speaking of the white-scaled shark, Qi Yue looked at Qi Hanyi and asked, "Hey, brother, you know the [white-scaled shark], right? I sent you a video of him beating the [Star Pirate Leader] a long time ago. He also signed up for the competition organized by your military. Did you watch the competition today? Wow, he's so handsome."

Su Su instantly perked up when he heard this. He was just worrying about how to bring up this topic in front of Qi Hanyi without appearing to be deliberately doing so.

Su Su looked at Qi Hanyi with shining eyes, waiting for his answer.

Qi Hanyi sensed Su Su's expectant gaze and picked up the fish he liked to eat for him. He pretended not to notice anything unusual and replied calmly, "I saw it."

"Are they players from the competition you organized?" Qi Xingli asked. He had heard about Qi Hanyi and the Mo family jointly organizing a competition in Star Wars to select starship pilots, but he always believed that players who had not received professional training could never compare to real pilots.

He said to Qi Hanyi disapprovingly: "That kind of small-scale competition is fine as a means of publicity, but it doesn't pick out anyone of real value, so there's no need to waste too much energy."

Qi Yue was not going to do it this time: "Grandpa, you are not right. Do you know the SS-32 map? Facing the siege of four SS-class male insects, [White Scale Shark] drove an S-class starship to kill the female insect alone. I remember the last person who achieved this feat. Was it my eldest brother?"

As the Minister of National Defense, Qi Xingli naturally knew something about this map. He even personally presented the battle report of that war to His Majesty. He knew the difficulty and casualties of that battle very well. Therefore, his first reaction to hearing Qi Yue's words was a little unbelievable: "How is this possible? A player..."

"It's true, his talent is better than mine." Qi Hanyi affirmed Qi Yue's words and gave a higher evaluation.

"Cough, cough, cough!" Su Su had just taken a sip of soup. When he heard these words, he was so excited that the soup went into his lungs and he immediately started coughing violently.

He pricked up his ears, wanting to hear Qi Hanyi praise him, but he never thought that he would hear such high praise from Qi Hanyi.

After all, that was Qi Hanyi, the owner of the Bai Ze, the commander of the expeditionary force, and the human being he admired the most.

Qi Hanyi didn't expect Su Su to react so strongly. He paused for a moment, turned around and patted Su Su's back: "Isn't she a mermaid? How can she choke when drinking soup?"

"I am..." Su Su wanted to say, I am the white-scaled shark. I was so excited when you praised me just now. But he knew that he couldn't reveal his identity in front of so many people, and he also planned to give Qi Hanyi a surprise when they met, so he could only change the subject: "I was just thirsty and drank too quickly."

At this time, Qi Yue's eyes were completely fixed on Su Su and Qi Hanyi, with a hint of joy hidden in her surprise.

Was he still her cold and serious brother? He would tease others in a half-joking tone and pat them on the back tenderly.

Knowing that her eldest brother hated mermaids, Qi Yue had always worried that he would be too cold to his eldest sister-in-law after getting married. Now it seems that her worries were completely unnecessary.

"Oh, I didn't expect that after just one month of not seeing each other, the relationship between Hanyi and her partner is so good. I heard that you used to hate mermaids the most. When you just got married, you even made a fuss to the head of the family and wanted to cancel the engagement." Noticing what Su Su and Qi Hanyi were doing, Qi Hanyi's aunt became weird.

Qi Yang echoed his mother, adding fuel to the fire, "That's right. At the Mo family banquet, my eldest sister-in-law was hungry and wolfed down the food. When I asked her, I found out that my eldest brother was even stingy with the food at home."

They didn't want to see Qi Hanyi and his mermaid in love, especially Qi Yang, who had hoped that Qi Hanyi would lose his position as heir due to mental breakdown, but his attempt failed. Later, he heard that Su Su had indeed saved Qi Hanyi from mental breakdown. Seeing that the position of heir that was about to be obtained was completely gone, how could he not hate it.

"I was ignorant before." Qi Hanyi said, "I have figured it out. My father's matter was my mother's fault. It has nothing to do with other mermaids. I shouldn't be angry. The head of the family asked Your Majesty to grant me a marriage because he loves me."

Qi Xingli showed a gratified expression: "It's good that you think this way."

Then he looked at Su Su and said, "Han Yi was ignorant before and did some things that hurt you. You saved his life without holding a grudge. The Qi family will remember this kindness."

Su Su waved his hands: "Actually, I didn't do anything..."

It was just taking off each other's clothes, getting close to each other, and kissing each other... cough, it was artificial respiration.

Qi Xingli: "A harmonious family is the root of all prosperity. It's great that you can live in harmony like this. Hanyi is getting old, and it's time to consider the issue of an heir."

"Yes, I'll consider it." Qi Hanyi responded without changing his expression.

Su Su's eyes widened. What was he considering? Giving birth to a baby? Who would give birth? Neither he nor Qi Hanyi had this ability!

Su Su looked at Qi Hanyi, then at the little skirt she was wearing, and suddenly realized that she seemed to be playing the role of a female mermaid.

Someone held his hand under the table. Su Su turned to look at Qi Hanyi, who gave him a calm look.

Su Su relaxed. Yes, if the sky fell, Qi Hanyi would bear the brunt of it. He didn't need to worry about such things.

After the family dinner, there was some boring chat. Qi Xingli asked Qi Hanyi about his work, while the others talked about their own things.

Maybe it was the side effect of the mermaid drug, but Su Su felt sleepy right after. He sat next to Qi Hanyi yawning, his head nodding, looking like he would fall asleep at any moment.

Qi Hanyi noticed Su Su's little action and took the initiative to stand up and say goodbye: "It's getting late, I'll take him upstairs to rest first."

There was nothing important to discuss, so Qi Xingli waved his hand and said, "I'm tired too, so let's stop here for today."

Qi Hanyi breathed a sigh of relief and took Su Su to his room.

This room is simple and clean, and looks similar to Qi Hanyi's current bedroom, with one difference: there are more traces of Qi Hanyi's life when he was young. On the table is a group photo of him wearing the Imperial Military Academy uniform. Among dozens of people, he is the only one with a cold face, and the murderous aura seems to overflow through the photo. There is a transparent display rack on the wall, which displays the trophies and medals that Qi Hanyi has won since he was a child, and the whole wall is filled with them.

In a corner of the bedside table, there was a shark doll with a gray back and a white belly. The fabric was very old, but it was obvious that the owner took good care of it. The shark was washed clean and the torn part on the top of its head was sewn up crookedly.

"It's a shark!" Su Su grabbed the shark doll into his arms as if he had found a treasure, and held it above his head to show Qi Hanyi: "Is this yours too?"

"Well, his name is Yin." Qi Hanyi said.

What Qi Hanyi didn't say was that he had been haunted by nightmares for many years after returning from the sea. This mermaid doll accompanied him throughout his childhood. He named it Ah Yin because he opened his eyes on the reef that night, the moonlight was very bright, and he always remembered the little shark that saved his life, which was covered with dazzling silver light.

This doll named Yin is the only thing that makes him feel at ease when he wakes up from a nightmare.

But when he is older, don't allow yourself to behave in such childish ways.

However, he still carefully preserved this doll. Perhaps it was because the name gave it a sense of connection, or perhaps it was because it carried Qi Hanyi's unexpressed gratitude to the shark.

"Hello, Yin, my name is Su Su." Su Su shook hands with the doll seriously. He hugged Yin again, and the soft touch was unexpectedly comfortable. Su Su asked Qi Hanyi: "Can I sleep with it in my arms tonight?"

"Just hold me if you like." Qi Hanyi made the bed for Su Su: "There is only one bed here, so please bear with me for one night."

"I don't feel wronged. I like sleeping with you." Su Su answered calmly.

Qi Hanyi choked and his ears turned red again. No matter how many times he tried, he could not adapt to Su Su's direct words. He stood up hastily: "If you are sleepy, go to bed first. I still have evening training."

The evening training was next door. Qi Hanyi thought that according to yesterday's time, Su Su's side effects would not take effect too early, and he should be able to finish the evening training in time. If Su Su woke up due to the side effects and made any noise, he would be able to find out immediately since he was close by, so there shouldn't be any danger.

So he closed the doors and windows and went into the training room.

After washing up, Su Su changed into the pajamas he brought with him - a newly customized plush pajamas with a shark doll, and crawled into bed holding the shark doll.

"Tuttttt."

Su Su was awakened by a knock on the door. He opened his eyes blankly, his memory was blank, he looked around, trying hard to think, where is this?

The knocking on the door continued, and Su Su subconsciously felt that he should open the door, so he got out of bed wearing a shark pajamas, holding his shark doll, and opened the door.

"Sister-in-law, it's me." Qi Yue popped her head out from behind the door, looked around the room carefully, and then breathed a sigh of relief: "I knew that my brother should be in evening training at this time. Hey, don't be nervous, I just want to chat with you for a while."

She called herself sister-in-law? Su Su blinked slowly. Sister-in-law, it seems that people call their brother's spouse?

Although he didn't understand the situation, Su Su still said "hmm" seriously.

"Sister-in-law, are you asleep? I won't disturb your rest, will I?" Qi Yue noticed that Su Su had changed clothes, and vaguely realized that something was wrong. But even though she said this, she had no intention of leaving. Instead, she stared at Su Su with shining eyes: "Sister-in-law, you look so cute in shark pajamas!" She wanted to hug him, so she hugged him secretly. But she didn't dare, because she was afraid that her brother would beat her.

"Don't bother me." Su Su yawned. Actually, he was a little sleepy, but the other person looked like he didn't want to leave, which made him look a little pitiful. Besides, this human was very pleasing to the eye, so it wouldn't matter if he stayed a little longer.

"Hehe, sister-in-law, you are so nice. I heard that my elder brother used to bully you. That's really outrageous." Qi Yue secretly said something bad about Qi Hanyi when she was not around, but immediately made up for Qi Hanyi: "But my elder brother is not a bad person. He just experienced too much when he was a child and has some psychological shadows. He is not targeting you. He has a bad temper since he was a child and he is not nice to anyone."

"Really?" Su Su listened carefully. The big brother the other party was talking about should be her husband, right? It seemed wrong. Why would a male shark like her have a human husband?

By the way, is he a male shark? Or is he a female?

Qi Yue was still talking to Su Su about Qi Hanyi's past: "My eldest brother is usually cold, but I know that he values ​​feelings. When I was eleven years old, I was kidnapped on the edge of a cliff. There were guards on three sides and rescuers couldn't get up. He was only sixteen that year. He climbed up the cliff alone, saved me, and climbed down with me on his back. He was shot while saving people, and bled a lot when he went down the mountain. Fortunately, he has a good physique, otherwise he might have died."

"So even though he has a bad temper, a cold attitude, and doesn't like to talk to people, but..."

"Qi Yue." Qi Hanyi appeared at the door of the compartment wearing training clothes.

Su Su also looked up and saw a tall man standing against the light. Although he couldn't see his face clearly, Su Su felt that this man was in line with his aesthetic standards.

"Well, big brother." Qi Yue jumped up like a cat with its tail caught: "When did you come?"

"Just now, when you said I had a bad temper." Qi Hanyi said calmly. In fact, earlier, he knew that Qi Yue was actually worried about the provocative words of Qi Yang's family tonight, and wanted to say something good for him.

"You didn't hear a single good word I said, you only picked out the bad." Qi Yue muttered softly.

Big brother? Su Su immediately put his identity into the conversation: "Husband?"

Qi Hanyi was stunned and looked at Su Su carefully. The other party's eyes were clear, completely different from the state of the little fool yesterday. It seemed that there was no big problem. Although it was a bit strange for him to suddenly call her husband, it was not ruled out that he was acting deliberately because Qi Yue was present.

But fearing that Su Su would really become stupid after a while, Qi Hanyi still rudely drove him away: "He needs to rest, you should go back."
