"..."
Fan Xuan Ye looked up at her, hesitated for a moment, and then nodded, "Mm."
The two walked to the outside of the cave and found a place to sit down.
In the sky, a bright moon radiates a soft light, and numerous stars surround it, seemingly drawn by it, transforming into dazzling orbs of light.
What do you want to talk about?
Looking at the clear and bright sky, Fan Xuanye felt much better.
Since coming to the military academy, he has tried his best to forget the unhappy time before, but Fan Yunche's appearance today has brought back those disgusting memories.
"Turn off the live stream."
Mu Qingyun did not answer his question. Instead, she pointed to her wrist and turned off her phone.
Seeing that Fan Xuanye had also turned off the live stream, she spoke softly, "You must have been unhappy before, which is why you came to the military academy for trials as soon as you came of age, right?"
"Hmm." He responded softly, "I feel like an outsider in this family. Watching them all get along so well, I feel like a stranger."
"My dad said he would definitely give me a share of the company in the future, but the way he looks at me is full of disgust."
“I know he believes what others say, and he also thinks my mother ran away with someone else.”
“At least your father had a reason.” Mu Qingyun sighed softly, put her hands behind her head, lay down on the ground, and faced the stars in the sky.
“My father has never paid attention to me since I was born. He has many scheming and beautiful wives and many children. To him, my existence is just an increasing number.”
Recalling her childhood in her previous life, she still couldn't help but feel a pang of pain in her heart.
The absent emperor, the scheming harem, the dilapidated cold palace, the tyrannical servants—each of these caused her unbearable pain at that time.
However, upon hearing her words, Fan Xuan Ye frowned, hesitated for a moment, and then said calmly, "This... is illegal, isn't it?"
"..."
Mu Qingyun twitched her lips. "Maybe."
It has to be said that Fan Xuanye is truly an extraordinary person. Her originally rather sad mood was completely dispelled by his words.
It seems that Fan Xuanye is not as fragile as she imagined; not everyone is like her brother and needs her comfort.
The two fell silent. Fan Xuanye sat for a while, turned to look at her, and then simply lay down on the ground as well, looking up at the clear night sky together.
"Hey, enjoying the moon here?"
A familiar voice came from beside her. Mu Qingyun didn't turn her head. The next moment, a magnified handsome face appeared in front of her.
Kazel's violet pupils gleamed slightly as he held a pearl between his fingers, placed it above her face, and then released it.
A small, shimmering white pearl fell from Cazell's hand and gently landed on her face. Because her lips were full, the pearl landed perfectly on her philtrum.
"What?" She frowned, reached up to touch her face, and took the pearl off.
The lustrous white pearls were facing the moonlight; although small, their superior quality was immediately apparent.
With a slight twist of her fingers, she stuffed it into her storage bag without saying a word.
Kazel: ...
What about my beautiful pearl?
"It's quite easy to carry."
Kazel, with a "death smile" playing on his lips, spoke in a sarcastic tone.
"I'm going back first." Fan Xuan Ye, who was standing to the side, felt that he had nothing to say here, so he sat up and walked into the cave.
Mu Qingyun raised her head and watched Fan Xuanye return to the cave before speaking in a low voice, "If you give it to me, it's mine."
“Who said it was for you?” Kazel raised an eyebrow. “This pearl is worth a lot of money, and you just stuffed it into your own pocket. You’re quite self-aware.”
"You threw it in my face, isn't that giving me a taste of my own medicine?" Mu Qingyun's lips curled into a cold smile as she tilted her head to look at Kazel. "Unless you admit that you're just being nosy and throwing things around like that."
[Pfft, Brother Mu is right.]
[I'm so happy! I switched to Kazel's stream after Mu Ge's stream ended, but lo and behold, I saw Mu Ge again!]
[What Mu said is wrong; whatever Kazel says is not good. If he admits it, it's like he's insulting himself; if he doesn't admit it, the pearl will be given away for nothing.]
[If it's free, then so be it. It's for her husband anyway; they're all family, isn't that great?]
[...Could you please stop overthinking things? Can you be normal? I'm speechless.]
...
Sure enough, Kazel hesitated for a moment, then sighed helplessly, "Fine, the pearl is yours."
"Mmm," she responded softly, closing her eyes.
"You're not going to sleep here, are you?" Kazel raised an eyebrow in surprise as she closed her eyes.
Mu Qingyun didn't reply to him. She was exhausted from building the house these past few days, and now this Fan Yunche thing had suddenly happened. She was really tired.
A gentle breeze was blowing, and it was pitch black all around. She had only intended to close her eyes and rest, but before she knew it, she had fallen asleep.
"Mu Qingyun?"
After receiving no reply for a while, Kazel called out softly again, turned his head to look, and found that Mu Qingyun seemed to have fallen asleep.
Are you that tired?
He raised an eyebrow in confusion, about to remind Mu Qingyun to return to the cave, when his purplish pupils suddenly lit up unexpectedly.
Puzzled, he looked down at the screen on his wrist and, sure enough, found many comments from Mu Xueyao's fans asking for help.
Ugh, this is so troublesome.
He took a deep breath and frowned in annoyance, but after hesitating for a moment, he still stood up, leaving Mu Qingyun behind, and walked towards where Mu Xueyao was, following the directions from the fans in the comments.
However, shortly after he left, Su, who had been standing at the cave entrance watching this side, slowly walked out.
Su watched Kazel's departing figure, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes.
Could it be that this mermaid's sexual orientation is really different?
Never mind, this has nothing to do with him.
He shook his head and walked quickly toward Mu Qingyun.
He heard steady breathing beside him, and looking down, he saw that Mu Qingyun had her eyes closed and had obviously fallen asleep.
Seeing this, he frowned.
Having spent so much time with Mu Qingyun, he knew that Mu Qingyun was a very guarded person, and the only reason she could fall asleep under such circumstances was because she was too tired.
He sighed softly, glanced at his now-closed live stream, and stretched out his left hand, a bright white light appearing in his palm.
He gently placed his hand on Mu Qingyun's forehead, and his light-based superpowers activated, sending gentle energy into Mu Qingyun's body and relieving her fatigue from the past few days.
Light-based abilities can not only be used to attack others, but also to replenish and restore energy.
"Thanks for your hard work."
Su looked at Mu Qingyun, whose complexion was gradually easing, and a faint smile appeared on her lips.
After a while, he felt that it was enough, so he withdrew his superpower.
He reached out and hugged Mu Qingyun, lifting her up easily with both arms.
But looking down at Mu Qingyun, who was sleeping peacefully in his arms, he raised an eyebrow in confusion.
Mu Qingyun, is it really that light?
