Chapter 294
Since she considered him a friend, Wen Xin couldn't knowingly watch him be plotted against and killed when she was aware of the danger.
Most importantly, she genuinely couldn't bear to see Daphne and King Abel's family enjoy even one more day of happiness!
Therefore, the period from when she stabilizes her pregnancy to when the baby is born is the most suitable.
Also, Wen Xin is not that fragile. Apart from the morning sickness she experienced recently, her pregnancy is very stable.
Moreover, there was Bo Xu's meticulous care.
As for the long and arduous journey?
The mermaid's spaceship is safe and luxurious; it's impossible for it to be bumpy, so that's not a problem.
But in Bo Xu's eyes, his beloved wife was a porcelain doll that would collapse with a gust of wind, how could he dare to let her travel far?
At first, he was strongly opposed to it.
His darling wife wants revenge, and he can totally do it for her!
Let alone just the García family, destroying human civilization would be a piece of cake for them.
Wen Xin: "..." That won't do, will it?
Bai Ruiwen: "..." Is he assassinating this mermaid king, or is he assassinating this mermaid king?
The Mermaid King said cruelly, "Humans have never treated my wife well either, so what's wrong with killing them?"
Wen Xin pulled him back again, trying to calm him down. She wanted revenge, but she had no intention of destroying the world.
Moreover, most of the people who cyberbullied her on StarNet were hired by Daphne to spread rumors and smear her.
The Star Empire consists mostly of bystanders who remain silent and busy with their lives, so they don't have time to pay attention to the messy struggles of the Star Network and the royal family. What crime have they committed?
We should seek revenge, but let's not commit evil deeds!
Otherwise, what difference would there be between her and Daphne?
Furthermore, he wanted to help her, fine, but she had to take revenge herself. It would be a real shame if Daphne and her scumbag brother Adonis didn't do it personally. Wen Xin really couldn't swallow this insult.
Most importantly, Wen Xin dared not let Bo Xu, the Mermaid King, go to the Human Empire; it was too dangerous!
Yes, human civilization is in danger!
Speaking of which...
Recently, Wen Xin has been wondering why Bo Xu, who is so powerful, would have to perish together with the insect queen in his previous life.
If the Zerg were truly that powerful, why would they need to plunder human resources? They would have already been like the Merfolk civilization, looking down on the less advanced civilizations below, or simply conquering them.
Later, Lin Ran often came to keep her company. That mermaid girl was truly knowledgeable and knew a great deal.
She told Wen Xin a lot about mermaids, including their ancient history.
Lin Ran told her that many, many years ago, the ancient mermaid race was full of emotions and devoted to their loved ones.
The ancient mermaid would only love one person in her entire life, so deeply that her tears could turn into pearls for her beloved, and she would be willing to give her life for him.
However, if the ancient mermaids' beloved does not love them, they will gradually wither away, their strength will be constantly weakened, until they die for love.
This is why the ancient mermaids suffered too many emotional tragedies, which even led to the near extinction of their race.
From then on, the surviving mermaids gradually abandoned their emotions, becoming cold-hearted, sentimental, and promiscuous, so that they would never again be burdened by feelings or even harm their own kind.
The result was that the mermaid race developed at an extremely rapid pace in a short period of time, but at the same time, it also made mermaid society increasingly indifferent.
Lin Ran felt that although the Mermaid King looked cruel and cold, she saw signs of ancestral regression in him. At least in terms of feelings, the Mermaid King was the same as the ancient mermaids.
Lin Ran also said that she had read records that ancient mermaids were called sea gods and possessed power close to that of gods.
However, modern mermaids rely more on high-tech weapons, and their own special abilities are almost negligible.
Oh, and besides the Mermaid King!
Lin Ran shook his head with a wry smile. The mermaid civilization created the Mermaid Emperor out of greed for the divine realm, but it was probably just a resurrection of their ancestors.
And all of that was once something the mermaids had abandoned!
It's incredibly ironic!
What's even more ridiculous is that the mermaid leaders have been deceiving themselves and refusing to admit it.
Only one young fish woman, whom they looked down upon, saw through everything.
Wen Xin saw Bai Ruiwen's shadow in this mermaid girl; they were both ambitious young people who loved their civilization and their people.
Compared to herself, Wen Xin felt that Lin Ran was more like the true female lead of the world—kind, compassionate, and responsible.
That said, Wen Xin finally solved the mystery of her past life: why Bo Xu, who saved her in the insect race, was so weak compared to their first meeting, and why even the insect queen could scheme against him and force him to perish together.
Moreover, Wen Xin now knows that the main system of the mermaid civilization is in Bo Xu's body.
Although Bo Xu loathed and despised the mermaid race, Wen Xin knew that they were, after all, of the same race, and unless his bottom line was crossed, he would not really destroy the entire mermaid civilization.
Is it possible that in his previous life, before he came looking for her, he had already stripped away the mermaid main system and returned it to the mermaid race?
If so, he will definitely be seriously injured again.
No wonder...
Did he come to her in his previous life with a death wish?
Because she didn't love him, he was tormented by love and took the ancient path of death that led to the mermaid!
"Honey, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell again?"
Bo Xu's worried and anxious voice pulled Wen Xin out of her reverie.
She paused, suppressing the bitterness in her heart. It's all in the past. In this life, they will be alright, and so will their baby!
Wen Xin reached out and hugged his neck, her watery eyes sparkling with a hint of a smile. "I'm fine, don't be so nervous. I'm not fragile glass."
Bo Xu didn't listen to her and remained extremely cautious towards her. "Shall I make you a new breakfast?"
Wen Xin looked at the lavish breakfast spread on the table and smiled helplessly, "No need, I'll just skip the shrimp dumplings."
After the meal, Bo Xu hesitated again, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.
Wen Xin cupped his face, both amused and exasperated. "Am I a tigress? Why are you always so timid and afraid to even speak?"
Bo Xu's silver-gray eyes were filled with deep affection. "Even if my baby is a tigress, she's still the cutest and most beautiful."
Wen Xin: "..."
She scolded him, "Speak properly."
Bo Xu paused for a moment, then said, "Baby, how about I go to the Human Empire for you?"
Wen Xin's red lips twitched slightly. "Didn't we already agree on this?"
Bo Xu hesitated, "But..."
"No buts," Wen Xin gently shook him, then planted a wet, sweet kiss on his lips, "Husband~"
Boxu was knocked out instantly!
The Mermaid King's heart was fluttering; he couldn't resist his beloved wife's sweet advances.
He struggled to maintain his last shred of rationality amidst the tenderness of her embrace, saying, "Baby, I'm worried about your health."
