nXi Ning lifted the quilt and sat up, moved a little closer to him and whispered, “I didn’t mean to.”

nLouis was usually so strong that he couldn’t push him no matter how hard he tried.

nLouis responded in a low voice, “I know.”

nHe tentatively reached out to hug Xi Ning. Xi Ning didn’t refuse, and put his chin in front of him. “I don’t like you drinking.”

n“Okay, I won’t drink in the future.” Louis looked at him attentively. He agreed so quickly, Xi Ning wondered if he was still sober.

nXi Ning leaned over and kissed his lips, seeing that Louis was indeed slow to respond, and had a dazed expression on his face.

nHe squeezed both sides of Louis’ cheeks, rubbing his facial features slightly out of shape, and Louis just looked down at him without speaking.

nXi Ning kissed him again and asked, “Do you like me?”

nLouis replied, “Yes, I do.”

nHe was a lot more honest when he was drunk. Xi Ning touched his red face, pursed his lips and smiled. “How much do you like me?”

nThe corners of Louis’ lips seemed to rise a little, and he put his arm on Xi Ning’s waist. “I really really like you.”

nXi Ning was very happy, he kissed him for a third time, and licked his lips with the soft tip of his tongue. Louis was afraid that he still had the smell of alcohol, so he resisted himself from responding. Xi Ning got out of his arms and got into the bed. “Go to sleep, you sleep here.”

nLouis obediently got up and turned off the light and went back to bed. Xi Ning smelled a very faint smell of alcohol on his body but no longer felt uncomfortable, and quickly fell asleep.

nA few days later, the news about Xi Ning pushing Louis to the ground, and the fact that Louis did not lose his temper at all spread throughout the spaceship. Some pirates that were at areas farther away, and those who had never seen Xi Ning deliberately walked around when Xi Ning went to the cafeteria to eat to take a look at him out of curiosity.

nAfter staying here for a long time, Xi Ning felt that he was already immune to these glances. Fortunately, Louis sat by the side, so they didn’t dare to look at him too blatantly.

nThe pirates on the spaceship were also aware of Xi Ning’s position in Louis’ heart, and they also realized that the ransom they wanted in exchange for Xi Ning might not happen anymore.

nBut the spaceship needed energy, and all the pirates had to eat. Since they couldn’t get ransom anymore, many people were thinking of using other methods to get supplies and money.

nThey were interstellar pirates, and of course they used the usual pirate practice. Several people dragged Langdon to decipher the route of a commercial spaceship to get ready to rob it.

nLangdon showed Louis the drawn roadmap and action plan, and said, “The Federation cannot find the whereabouts of His Royal Highness Cyril, and it is estimated that they will suspect us. They must be on their guard for the time being. This spaceship is just a civilian commercial cargo spaceship. It has nothing to do with the Federation, and its firepower is quite weak.”

n“We will leave at 10 a.m. the day after tomorrow and arrive near the route around 4 a.m.” Langdon pointed to a spot on the route map. “This ship will pass by at this time, and if we are fast, we’ll be able to go back without a hitch after two hours.”

nThis spaceship was quite small, and the things it carried were not as valuable as energy sources like nuclear crystals, but could still sell for a lot. Langdon was eager to try. “Boss, what do you think?”

nLouis carefully looked at the plan he brought up, and nodded slightly. “Okay.”

nLangdon immediately took the blueprint to arrange for the manpower, but Louis stopped him again. “Let the people under my command be silent for now, just keep it to yourself.”

nLouis didn’t want Xi Ning to know about it. He was afraid that someone could not keep his mouth shut and he would hear it when he mentioned it outside.

n4 a.m. to 6 a.m. was the time when Xi Ning slept. When he woke up from his sleep, they would have already done everything and left, and Xi Ning would not know anything.

nOn the morning of the third day, the spaceship set off for the destination on time. The pirates had already restrained themselves after listening to Louis’s instructions, but Xi Ning still noticed a trace of abnormality.

nWhen he went to eat in the cafeteria, many people were excitedly discussing something. When he and Louis entered, everyone’s voice became much quieter, and most of the people just shut up.

nXi Ning didn’t think too much. He went back after eating as usual, and when he passed an open door, he heard someone in front of him say, “Faster go to sleep, if not you won’t be able to wake up later.”

nAnother person sneered, “I won’t be able to wake up? Just wait, I will definitely grab more than you……”

nXi Ning slowed down and turned his head to look. Louis pulled him out of here quickly.

nThe two of them didn’t speak on the way. Louis wasn’t sure if Xi Ning had guessed anything. After returning to the room, he just said, “Are you sleepy? Do you want to take a nap?”

nXi Ning nodded silently. He recalled that Louis seemed to be busier than usual in the past two days. He was often absent from the room during the day, combined with the obviously excited crowd and what he had just heard.

nBefore going to bed at night, Xi Ning couldn’t help but ask Louis, “Are you…… going to rob again?”

nLouis was silent for a while, then admitted, “Yes.”

nXi Ning opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but closed his mouth again. Louis patiently waited for him to organize his words, and finally Xi Ning said, “Do you really have to go?”

nThis is the way these people have always lived, including Louis. No matter how much he thought it was wrong, did he have a position to stop it? Even if he said it, Louis would not necessarily listen to him.

nThe room was very quiet. Louis kept his head down and didn’t speak. He got up and turned off the light.

nHe came back to lie down and hug Xi Ning tightly, reached out and stroked his smooth hair, and asked in a low voice, “Do you not want me to go?”
