Chapter 295
Wen Xin: "I'm in good health, except for the occasional vomiting."
Bo Xu: "..." That's a pretty big deal!
Wen Xin's slender fingers tickled his sexy Adam's apple. "With you by my side taking care of me and protecting me, what's there to be afraid of? Besides, can you really leave me alone on Ocean Star?"
Bo Xu: "..."
Bo Xu gently and helplessly took her soft hand in his, kissed it, and said in a slightly hoarse voice, "Baby, stop making a fuss."
How could he resist even the slightest flirtation from her?
However, he dared not do anything reckless now; if he hurt her, he would surely regret it for the rest of his life.
But his darling wife is right. If he went to the Human Empire alone and left her here, he really wouldn't be able to rest easy for a second.
Bo Xu couldn't think of a better solution and couldn't bear to stop her, so he could only make a three-point agreement with his little wife: "When we return to the Human Emperor Star, if anything happens, just tell me what to do. Don't get angry, don't feel upset, and absolutely don't hurt yourself."
Wen Xin nestled against his chest, smiled sweetly, and said, "Okay, honey."
Bo Xu's eyes were full of tenderness and affection; he was completely helpless against the little darling in his arms.
...
At nine o'clock, the delegation from the Mermaid Empire arrived at Ocean Star on time.
The sheer scale of the scene startled Wen Xin a little.
First of all, there's the exclusive spaceship that the Mermaid Empire prepared for their emperor. Its luxury is countless times more extravagant than the dragon boats that ancient emperors used when they traveled to the south of the Yangtze River.
The entire spaceship was larger than their island, and its appearance created a sky-covering effect.
Countless mecha warships stood guard, and banners adorned with mermaid emblems fluttered in the wind. To the uninitiated, it looked like they were heading to war!
Won't this terrify humans?
The Second Elder, as the head of the delegation, smiled with a face full of wrinkles, like a eunuch beside an emperor, and asked Bo Xu with utmost obsequiousness: "Your Majesty, do you think there is anything we are not prepared for?"
For example, is this ceremonial procession grand enough?
not enough!
It doesn't matter!
They also have backup plans, and a second army of mecha merfolk is following behind them.
The Emperor said that as long as the merfolk are not killed, everything is negotiable.
Bo Xu narrowed his long eyes slightly, but before he could find fault, Wen Xin subtly shook his hand.
It's okay, it's okay, it's really okay!
They really weren't going to fight against humans!
Honey, take it easy!
Of course, he had to give his beloved wife face. Bo Xu gently picked her up and carried her onto the spaceship, then coldly commanded, "Depart."
The Second Elder silently wiped his sweat. It was absolutely impossible for him to be dissatisfied with the Emperor's cold attitude. The Emperor didn't nitpick or cause them any trouble. He was almost moved to tears.
Seeing her father's anxious and worried expression, Lin Ran felt both heartache and helplessness.
However, she was already very content, at least her father was still alive! She was extremely grateful to Her Majesty the Empress!
Lin Ran understood better than anyone that if Wen Xin hadn't spoken up, the Emperor would never have allowed them to leave this planet alive.
Needless to say, Bai Ruiwen was definitely going to return from this trip to the human planet. If it weren't for Wen Xin's pregnancy, which made him uneasy, he would have gone back to investigate the previous events long ago.
Lin Ran was also an accomplice, or rather, in the eyes of the mermaid leaders, she was now the queen's favorite.
As a result, Lin Ran's status in the Mermaid Empire rose rapidly.
Although she felt helpless, after obtaining Wen Xin's permission, she did not deny anything and even gradually began to interfere in the politics of the Mermaid Empire.
She had to ensure that she had enough power to stop her father and his ilk from making the same mistake again.
She also hopes that one day she can change the status quo of the Mermaid Empire.
They are living beings with flesh and blood, not cold, emotionless robots, and they should no longer use so-called rationality to commit extreme and heinous acts!
...
The massive convoy of merfolk ships sailed through interstellar routes for nearly two months before finally entering the territory of the human interstellar empire.
Wen Xin didn't experience morning sickness again during this time, and with Bo Xu's meticulous care, the weight she had lost returned.
This offered some solace to the mermaid king, who was constantly worried about his pregnant wife and exhausted from running around.
Wen, weary from her busy life: "..."
She spends every day in a super luxurious spaceship, where she can eat whatever she wants. The mermaid even built her a greenhouse and an observatory so she can enjoy the flowers and the moon anytime and relax.
Oh, and there's also a royal performance troupe of beautiful mermaids who perform songs, dances, acrobatics, and comedy acts just for her every day.
The spaceship was even equipped with various amusement facilities. Although Wen Xin was not suitable for playing them, at least someone was playing them for her to see!
The mermaids on the entire spaceship revolved around her every day, doing their best to provide her with delicious food and fun activities, making sure she was happy.
If this is considered tiring and exhausting?
Wen Xin could hardly understand those four words anymore: shame! shame!
I looked at my mermaid husband, who always seemed to feel wronged...
Honestly, if his hair hadn't been naturally silver, Wen Xin would have thought that if she got pregnant, he would torture her until her black hair turned white, even more so than the female protagonist in a tragic novel.
Wen Xin found it both funny and touching.
This man truly cherishes her dearly!
Bai Ruiwen, the male protagonist of this world and originally the female protagonist's official partner, has now completely surrendered to Bo Xu, and can no longer even feel resentment or jealousy.
Because he understood that he couldn't treat Wen Xin with the same devotion as Bo Xu.
So he had no choice but to admit defeat; well, it was no use refusing.
However, apart from showing concern for Wen Xin's health, he rarely appears in front of the two of them anymore.
It was too physically and emotionally agonizing. With love gone, Beryl decided to focus on researching advanced civilizations' combat mechs to enhance the Space Marines' fighting capabilities and better prepare for a potential interstellar war with the Zerg.
The Mermaid King was quite satisfied with Beryl's decision to back down, and even went to his beloved wife to boast about it.
Look how magnanimous he is! Not only did he not make things difficult for Bai Ruiwen because he was his beloved wife's first love, but he also treated him like a distinguished guest and generously provided him with technological resources.
Bo Xu felt that he had handled his role as the rightful wife perfectly, and that he was doing a great job. He urged his darling wife to praise him!
Wen Xin: "..."
"Ugh~"
For some reason, she suddenly started experiencing morning sickness again today.
Bo Xu: "!!!"
Without a doubt, it's definitely that little rascal in his wife's belly trying to mess with his father again.
Bo Xu's heart sank to the bottom; he couldn't even deceive himself into thinking she was a little girl anymore!
The Mermaid King suffocated!
