MORIC - Chapter 194
Chapter 194: Who's Jealous
Xi Zhoumeng was dragged by her tie to a viewing platform around the corner by Chi Yueshan.
Xi Zhoumeng: "Don't pull my collar like that, it hurts."
Chi Yueshan huffed. The viewing platform had its own set of steps, and she happened to be standing on them, making her a little taller than Xi Zhoumeng.
Now, looking down at Xi Zhoumeng from her higher position: "So you know what pain feels like, huh?"
Xi Zhoumeng straightened her tie. The Expeditionary Force's uniform ties were very proper. But this person was anything but proper, having switched her tie to a style she preferred, so much so that the tie ruined the inherent atmosphere of the snow-white shirt. On top of that, Xi Zhoumeng had unbuttoned her collar, seemingly erasing any of the seriousness that came with the uniform.
Xi Zhoumeng: "Stop being so passive-aggressive. Why are you angry again?"
She finished straightening her collar but didn't button it up. Chi Yueshan could now see all too clearly that Xi Zhoumeng's neck was covered in dotted kiss marks.
Chi Yueshan's passive-aggressive attitude instantly deflated. "What do you mean, 'angry again'? Am I someone who gets angry all the time?"
It was called a viewing platform, but with the warship docked, there wasn't much of a view. The real central observation deck was on the top floor.
Now, it had become a temporary rest spot, and it was very cramped. It seemed impossible for two people to even turn around while standing together.
Xi Zhoumeng: "It seems you only like getting angry at me, right?"
She shrugged. "Who asked me to be your Alpha? I can only be your punching bag."
This person's ability to turn the tables and blame others was unparalleled. Chi Yueshan was already starting to fear that Hunhun would grow up to be like Xi Zhoumeng.
That would be an absolute little demon. What could be done then? Who could possibly control her?
Chi Yueshan: "What punching bag? As if I'd dare."
She stood on the higher step, a very novel angle from which she could even see the top of Xi Zhoumeng's head.
Damn it, why did this person have such thick hair too? It seemed like every part of her was perfect.
"You're praising me."
Even though Chi Yueshan hadn't spoken, Xi Zhoumeng could sense it from her dazed expression.
Even though Chi Yueshan was the one looking down, Xi Zhoumeng's sudden upward glance crashed into those clear green eyes.
She sighed. "Can't be helped. I'm just that incomparable."
Chi Yueshan lifted her leg and gave her a kick, but in the next second, she was pulled into Xi Zhoumeng's embrace.
Xi Zhoumeng was tired too. Although she wanted to rush things along, many things couldn't be perfected just by human calculation.
In this narrow, enclosed space, Chi Yueshan had no idea that she was actually giving Xi Zhoumeng a great sense of security.
Xi Zhoumeng: "What are you angry about?"
"Was I too rough with you?"
Even though Chi Yueshan was the one standing higher and being held, she still felt as if she were being deeply comforted by Xi Zhoumeng.
Xi Zhoumeng's hand stroked Chi Yueshan's now shoulder-length hair. She sighed, "But you clearly said it was okay."
Chi Yueshan: "Can you believe what's said at a time like that?"
In truth, every time she was with Xi Zhoumeng, it was hard for Chi Yueshan to remain rational. The churning pleasure was more addictive than anything else in the world.
The intimacy of a mind clear of distractions, bodies fitting together, and skin overlapping made it difficult not to be captivated.
Even the memory made her heart tremble, made her bite her lip in shame, and yet made her think about the next time.
Xi Zhoumeng herself was a person full of charm, as could be seen from the reactions of others.
She was a natural-born leader. Even though Chi Yueshan hadn't gone to the Prime Century with Xi Zhoumeng, the past influences the future. The fact that Xi Zhoumeng learned what she wanted to know without changing the future was proof enough of her ability.
She could always analyze the pros and cons in a short amount of time, yet she made it seem like it was nothing special.
Her external charm was enough to bewitch the newly enrolled Chi Yueshan, making her dazed even when they were positioned as love rivals.
Not to mention the complete marking now.
The Xi Zhoumeng of those moments—only I could see her, her gasps, her warmth, the force with which she kneaded me.
But was that "I love you" real?
This person's extravagance gave off a sense of false generosity, but in this one aspect, she was incredibly stingy.
Because she had never received it, she didn't know how to say it, and she disdained even pretending.
Xi Zhoumeng had actually said the word "like" many times—flippantly, jokingly, teasingly.
The solemn ones were all reserved for Chi Yueshan.
Only "love" seemed to be one in a million. Chi Yueshan had even thought Xi Zhoumeng would say it during their wedding vows.
How could someone who had never received love before, then pursued it, and now had someone who loved her, still be so difficult to be enveloped by it?
Xi Zhoumeng leaned against the door behind her. She held Chi Yueshan's hand and stared into her eyes, understanding what Chi Yueshan was talking about in the blink of an eye.
"Of course you can."
Her golden hair was tied back, revealing a face with a shape that could make one burn with jealousy. This angle was even more unfair; her upward glance was practically overflowing with deep affection.
Xi Zhoumeng: "I asked you if you could still go on, and you said yes."
She scoffed, who knows what she was thinking of. "You said that since I wasn't skilled enough to wreck you, I could only resort to surprise attacks like this."
Chi Yueshan subconsciously moved to cover her mouth, but Xi Zhoumeng caught her hand and pressed it against her own face.
Xi Zhoumeng: "You also said that after my trip to the Prime Century, I've become less and less capable."
Chi Yueshan, filled with grief and indignation, cried out, "When did I say that!"
Xi Zhoumeng: "Yes, I can't get you pregnant with another one here, but isn't that a good thing?"
The two of them had never really discussed this issue in depth. First, because Chi Yueshan had just given birth, and second, because Xi Zhoumeng herself really disliked children.
And yet, the one who loved children the most and the one who disliked them the most had ended up together.
At this moment, Xi Zhoumeng looked up. Outside the viewing platform was the planet's vicious sun, but it was different from Xi Zhoumeng's golden hair.
Some people, even with golden hair, don't give off a fiery passion, only an untouchable distance.
But Chi Yueshan was not in that category. She had received this divine arbiter's heart full of deep affection and the arrangement for the rest of her life.
Xi Zhoumeng: "Why have so many? One is more than enough."
Her other hand rested on Chi Yueshan's abdomen. "And don't think there's anything wrong with you. I told you before, the technology here is much better than in the ZR-Galaxy."
She sighed. "I thought you were afraid of nothing, always calling yourself the strongest Omega in the M-Galaxy. Why are you still thinking about these things?"
Xi Zhoumeng always switched between teasing and seriousness with ease. At this moment, Chi Yueshan's heart thumped, and she blurted out, "I'm afraid you don't like me."
Xi Zhoumeng laughed out loud. "How could that be?"
"Isn't it more likely that you'll despise me for losing my reproductive ability and becoming a useless Alpha, and then abandon me with our daughter?"
How could she have the face to say something like that!!!
Chi Yueshan didn't know how to respond and could only reach out to cover Xi Zhoumeng's mouth again, but unexpectedly, the other woman held the back of her hand.
Wet, soft lips and tongue roamed across Chi Yueshan's palm. For a moment, Chi Yueshan didn't know if her hair was standing on end or if a familiar feeling was rising within her. She struggled hastily, but to no avail, and in the next second, Xi Zhoumeng lifted her off the step with one arm.
The golden-haired Alpha leaned in close. Some of her lipstick had rubbed off on her palm, but it made her lips look as if they had been ravaged, causing Chi Yueshan to subconsciously purse her own lips, only to have them captured.
Even after a huge fight, the sweat of the Expeditionary Force's Commander-in-Chief was fragrant. Unfortunately, she herself was a fussy clean freak. After the kiss, she found herself a bit disgusting and wanted to open the viewing platform door to go take a shower.
Chi Yueshan stood there blankly, her mind filled with the hazy words Xi Zhoumeng had whispered during the kiss.
Such cheesy words, why do I love hearing them so much?
It's actually very easy to say, isn't it? Just three words.
But, but why did it make one's heart race when Xi Zhoumeng said it?
I've already had a child! And I'm still like this!
Xi Zhoumeng turned back, saw Chi Yueshan's peach-blossom-pink face and silly expression, and let out a laugh.
"You just wanted to hear me say 'I love you,' didn't you?"
No wonder she had completely stopped reacting at that moment. Xi Zhoumeng had thought Chi Yueshan had fainted.
So cute.
Chi Yueshan: "Nonsense! I came here to scold you! How could you do that! You made me unable to get up early, I slept until..."
Xi Zhoumeng: "Didn't you just sleep through two planets? Don't mind what my mom said about planet photos. Xi Mingguang has been on patrol for so many years, how could she have not taken any for her?"
Xi Zhoumeng even scoffed, "At their age, still saying things like 'I wish I could give you the stars again.' It's so sappy."
Chi Yueshan: "You're sappy too."
Xi Zhoumeng: "I don't know whose flesh was so tingly they kept crying."
Chi Yueshan still couldn't resist punching Xi Zhoumeng.
Xi Zhoumeng's eyes instantly reddened, and she let out a whimper.
Chi Yueshan was startled. Xi Zhoumeng weakly went to open the door. "I'm going to take a shower. Stop hitting me all the time."
Just then, Ling Xun, having finished her meal, was passing by. She glanced at Xi Zhoumeng, with her messy hair, red-rimmed eyes, and slightly swollen lips, and then at Chi Yueshan behind her, who was rolling her eyes.
Ling Xun: "You two..."
Xi Zhoumeng: "It's nothing. Chi Yueshan just likes to bully me when she's unhappy. I'm used to it."
The Commander looked so pitiful. Chi Yueshan was unable to defend herself and could only let out a "Hey!"
Ling Xun was numb. She suddenly regretted following Xi Zhoumeng, feeling that the role of a kicked puppy on the roadside should have been filled by her cousin.
Ling Xun: "Commander, I'm going to rest. You should rest early too. We will be landing on the next planet in three hours."
She was ultimately still worried about Xi Zhoumeng's condition. "You should also take care of your health."
Chi Yueshan called out to Ling Xun, pulling her to the side of the corridor to ask in a low voice, "Did she do something?"
Xi Zhoumeng dropped the act, straightening her body slightly. At this time, many people who had finished resupplying were heading to the rest cabins. Seeing the newly appointed, ferocious Commander-in-Chief, they were somewhat intimidated. Even though Xi Zhoumeng wasn't old, standing there like that, she had the air of a fearsome deity.
Ling Xun shook her head. "Your Alpha is very strong, it's just..."
Ling Xun thought of Xi Zhoumeng's vicious methods of punishing the Zerg, and she suddenly felt like she was going to throw up her meal. She took a deep breath. "I hope Senior Xi can... control herself a little..."
After speaking, Ling Xun felt that wasn't right either. But the scene in her mind was too vivid, and she shook her head again. "Never mind, this is also good. Being gentle to the enemy is being cruel to your own side. It's good, it's good."
Chi Yueshan thought Ling Xun had gone mad, but she was also worried that clearing out two planets at once had been very tiring for her, so she asked with concern, "Are you okay? You still need to be careful..."
Before she could finish, she was pulled away by Xi Zhoumeng. "Why don't you show some concern for me?"
Ling Xun thought it was best for her to get far away.
Help me, Senior Xi's pheromones are just too agonizing.
No wonder her cousin was in so much pain before. A top-tier Omega turning into an Alpha is indeed very aggressive, even if Senior Xi doesn't look as... as Senior Wen...
Chi Yueshan: "Why are you like this! It's perfectly normal for me to be concerned about Ling Xun. Xi Shuang treasures her cousin."
Xi Zhoumeng hummed in acknowledgment. "Am I being too unreasonable?"
Chi Yueshan: ...
That sentence was so strange.
The next second, it dawned on her. "You're jealous!"
Xi Zhoumeng: "No, I'm not. How could I be worthy of being jealous?"
Although she said that, she took Chi Yueshan's hand and headed for the dining hall. There were many Alpha officers along the way, so Xi Zhoumeng took her away directly through the commander's passage.
Chi Yueshan became even more certain, and she immediately cheered up.
She clung to Xi Zhoumeng affectionately. "No way, no way, our great Expeditionary Force Commander Xi Zhoumeng can get jealous too?"
Xi Zhoumeng: "After all, I'm just a pitiful person who gets beaten up by her own Omega."
There was no one around. Both sides of the passage were bathed in a deep blue light, and at the end was Xi Zhoumeng's office cabin.
Chi Yueshan took the opportunity to give Xi Zhoumeng a kiss on the corner of her lips, a very loud one.
There was even an echo.
"Don't worry, I love you the most."
