Chapter 286
Bo Xu nodded, picked up his beloved wife in his arms, and turned to leave.
Wen Xin gasped in surprise as he hugged her, pounding her shoulder with her fists and whispering, "What are you doing?"
There are outsiders here!
Isn't he ashamed?
Bo Xu smiled faintly and said, "Weren't you tired?"
Wen Xin retorted, "Then I wouldn't be unable to walk more than a few steps."
Bo Xu: "Yes, it's me who's worried about the baby."
The two of them lived in their own world, and no one else could get in.
Even though he knew he should let go, Bai Ruiwen still couldn't help but look at her as if torturing himself.
But each time, it only made him realize once again that he truly had no chance left.
He's an outsider now!
Watching the girl lean sweetly on the Mermaid King's shoulder, her expression filled with longing, Bai Ruiwen closed his eyes bitterly.
He took a deep breath and focused his attention back on the data from the mecha and the Mermaid Star Network.
His sadness only added to her worries, making her believe that she was immersed in the technology of the mermaid civilization and was a man who cared most about his work.
Bai Ruiwen suddenly smiled bitterly, but it was true, probably only the Mermaid King could always put her first!
Her choice was right.
He was not a good man for her!
...
In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed. Ever since the Second Elder and the other mermaids were driven off the island by Bo Xu, they had tried to contact this willful emperor, but he simply refused to see them and treated them as if they were invisible.
Even more so, just two days ago, Fan Yi sent them a notice: the Emperor ordered them to evacuate the ocean planet within the next few days.
The most annoying customers are those who refuse to leave!
As a man with a wife and family, Bo Xu now lives a very frugal life. He absolutely will not allow the Second Elder and his group of mermaids, who are already unpopular with him, to continue living in his house, eating for free, and wasting the shared property he and his beloved wife own.
Go, go, go! Let them all go!
The Second Elder and the other merfolk: "..."
Your Majesty, can you be reasonable? We've come here and never used a single resource from your planet. They don't even dare to catch a fish in the sea. All their food, clothing, and supplies come from our own spaceship, okay?
Bo Xu: Oh, so your presence also pollutes the air in my house.
Mermaids: There's nothing to fuck about!
But Bo Xu made it clear that he wanted to get rid of them, so the group of mermaids had no choice but to leave. Who would dare to stay?
But they were not willing to leave just like that!
Having no other choice, the Second Elder had to swallow his pride and beg his daughter for help.
Because only Perrin was treated with courtesy by Perrin as a true guest.
Of all the mermaids, Lin Ran and Bai Ruiwen were the closest.
The Second Elder wanted Lin Ran to meet Wen Xin through Bai Ruiwen, so he could reason with her and appeal to her emotions.
Make Wen Xin understand the importance of Bo Xu to their mermaid civilization, and ask her to prioritize the overall situation and persuade Bo Xu to take a female mermaid as his empress and give birth to outstanding offspring.
The second elders thought it was only natural, believing that since Wen Xin was now the queen of their Mermaid Empire, she should shoulder the responsibilities of a queen and prioritize the interests of the Mermaid Empire.
Lin Ran: "..."
Even she thought her father and his group of merfolk were really crazy!
They've all been so misled by the so-called divine civilization that they've lost their minds and even their most basic moral compass and bottom line.
Are they really not afraid of being torn apart one by one by the emperor?
However, Lin Ran did indeed want to see Her Majesty the Empress.
For the past two weeks, she had been in contact with Bai Ruiwen, but each time she only inquired about his health and offered some routine greetings, never asking about Bo Xu and Wen Xin.
Bai Ruiwen knew that this mermaid girl was different from the Second Elder and the others, and he regarded her as a friend, so he would always reply to her gently.
He received a cautious request from Lin Ran to pass on a message to Wen Xin: she wanted to see Her Majesty the Empress…
Lin Ran also repeatedly assured Bai Ruiwen that she would never say or do anything to harm Her Majesty the Empress, and asked him to believe her.
But if he's in a difficult position, he can ignore her request; it's alright, since it was she who was being unreasonable and excessive.
Lin Ran's caution and well-behaved nature made Bai Ruiwen momentarily dazed, and the image of the girl who used to hold peanut candy and quietly smile at him floated into his mind.
Bai Ruiwen felt a pang of sadness, but in the end, he still replied to Lin Ran with a simple "okay".
But, does Wen Xin want to see her? Bai Ruiwen will only relay the message; he won't force her.
What is she trying to do?
Before Wen Xin could speak, Bo Xu frowned, his aura turning cold and sharp.
Well, in this mermaid king's eyes, no one outside, whether mermaid or human, is a good thing; they will all come to hurt his fragile, precious wife.
Bo Xu's protection of Wen Xin can be described as obsessive and extreme.
Wen Xin held her mermaid husband's large hand, gently stroking his palm, and reassured him, "I met Miss Lin before; she seems like a harmless and kind mermaid girl."
Bo Xu completely disagreed. You can know a person's face but not their heart. Does my darling wife even know what a hypocritical white lotus is?
Wen Xin... Wen Xin suddenly had the illusion that she had been shot in the knee.
I have a feeling he's subtly criticizing her, right?
Wen Xin glared at him, telling him not to overthink things.
Bo Xu solemnly warned his innocent and kind-hearted wife: "Those mermaids are very dirty-hearted. They will stop at nothing to achieve their goals and will even betray their own blood relatives at any time. Honey, don't be fooled by their appearance."
So, what are those dog-mermaids up to this time?
Bo Xu narrowed his silver-gray eyes. He knew he had to kill them all after all!
"Honey, don't worry about it, just leave it to me."
Wen Xin: "..." If I leave it to you, people will die, oh no, a whole group of mermaids will die!
“Boxu, I want to see her.”
Bo Xu frowned even more, clearly disagreeing.
Wen Xin pinched his sleeve and shook it, "Husband~"
Bo Xu: "..."
My darling wife, your honey trap won't work. I won't fall for it!
Well, unless my darling wife calls me "husband" again!
Wen Xin suppressed a laugh and said softly, "Isn't it because you're here to protect me? That's why I'm not afraid."
"I believe that with you by my side, she would never dare to do anything."
Bo Xu's Adam's apple bobbed, showing absolutely no principle. "Baby, if you want to see him, then see him. It's really not a big deal!"
Bai Ruiwen, who was both amused and hurt, was speechless.
He really shouldn't be here at all!
And what happened to your aura of insistence on not giving in, Your Majesty the Mermaid King?
Does this have to be so shameless?
It's really fortunate that Xiaoxin is a kind and good girl; otherwise, if she had continued to be taught by this mermaid king, something terrible would have happened sooner or later.
Bo Xu: "..."
My rival is slandering me again, I'm so angry!
But he was the empress, magnanimous and tolerant!
