nWhen Louis had kissed enough, he stepped back a little to let Xi Ning breathe easier, and kissed off the water on his lips.
nLouis had already noticed that someone was coming, but he just ignored it. When he looked up, the person was still standing there and didn’t leave.
nXi Ning followed his line of sight and saw that it was the red-haired woman he had seen before.
nVera is back.
nWhen she was rushing back with a thousand tons of coal from the mine, she contacted the people in the spaceship in advance, adjusted the route and successfully caught up with them. The supplies brought back today and the coal mine that Vera brought back made the pirates on the spaceship even happier.
nAs soon as Vera came back, she went to look for Louis, but on the way she saw him and Xi Ning hugging and kissing inseparably. The others left silently, only she stubbornly stayed where she was and waited for Louis to look at her.
nLouis was slightly surprised when he saw her, but he didn’t have any other reaction, and said casually, “You’re back so soon?”
nVera looked at Xi Ning’s face and legs. After her last plan failed, the people under her said that Louis investigated the matter strictly. She was worried that Louis would suspect her, so she didn’t do anything more and did not have any contact with the people on the spaceship. She just wanted to get enough coal and return as soon as possible, and hearing any other news would only make her upset and distracted.
nBut the first thing she encountered when she came back made her so irritated and desperate. She had been with Louis for so long but she had never seen him treat any person like this. Xi Ning was being held in his arms, his shoes were not taken off, and was rubbing against the edge of Louis’s trousers, but Louis didn’t mind at all, instead he was looking at Xi Ning with doting and fascination.
nIn only such a short period of time, Louis was already seduced by this mermaid. If she knew that this would happen, she would have killed Xi NIng immediately the first time they met.
nVera concealed all her emotions and said calmly, “Yes, all the coal has been brought back, but the nuclear star does not produce coal mines. I went to Black Saturn of my own initiative. You won’t punish me for it right?”
nLouis was too lazy to listen to her explanation. He picked up Xi Ning and walked to the room, while replying perfunctorily, “I see. It’s alright then.”
nXi Ning glanced back quietly and saw Vera’s unkind gaze and ghastly expression.
nXi Ning knew that this woman liked Louis at first sight. When she was in the front hall, she was so fierce to him, and even kicked his aquarium.
nBefore Louis walked further away, Xi Ning deliberately kissed Louis’ side face in front of Vera, and Louis slowed down and turned his head. “Hm?”
nKnowing that Vera was still watching, Xi Ning continued to kiss Louis on the lips. Louis kissed back and put his arms around Xi Ning. “Okay, okay, wait until we go back and we’ll kiss again.”
nXi Ning couldn’t see Vera’s expression clearly, but he knew that she must be pissed, so he leaned on Louis’s shoulder and didn’t continue to do anything, and went back to the room with him.
nAfter the spaceship of the interstellar pirates left, the battleship in the distance arrived only to see that the merchant ship with half of its cargo robbed. The subordinates checked it and reported to the communicator, “Colonel, half of the cargo here is lost. Three people were slightly injured and one was seriously injured. Immediate medical attention is required.”
nThey could no longer see the trace of the spaceship, nor did they know the firepower of the other party. Moreover, there are still wounded people to treat. The man called the colonel replied, “Let a warship go to track them down first. Even if you can’t catch up, you must also get a clear direction of where they are heading, and leave the rest of the crew to deal with the merchant ships.”
nThe subordinate quickly responded, and a small warship quickly sailed towards the direction where the interstellar pirate ship left.
nXi Ning and Louis went back to their room and slept until the afternoon. When Xi Ning woke up, he was still in a daze and felt like an extra day had passed.
nLouis was not awake yet, Xi Ning went around him to get up and took a sip of water. When he put down the cup, the communicator rang.
nHe picked it up and took a look. It was Langdon who had called. Louis had been awakened by the sound, opened his eyes and sat up, “Who is it?”
nXi Ning brought the communicator to him, and Louis pressed the button to answer it. “Spit it out, what’s the matter?”
n“Boss, there are warships following us.” Langdon’s tone was serious. Xi Ning was very close to Louis, and he heard the voice from the communicator. “I suspect it is the same spaceship that came towards us when we robbed the merchant spaceship.”
nThey had been rampant in this interstellar space for so long, and even the Federation couldn’t do anything about it. Langdon had contributed greatly to this aspect. With the monitoring equipment he designed, even the Federation’s most advanced stealth warships cannot hide within a certain distance.
nThis warship only followed them not long ago, and was currently keeping some distance behind them, obviously tailing them. Louis immediately lifted the quilt and stood up. “Are you in the control room? I’ll come right away.”
nHe looked at Xi Ning, who had a dazed face, and bent over to comfort him. “I have some matters to deal with. I’ll be back soon.”
nAfter talking, Louis quickly got dressed and left. Xi Ning asked the system, “Are they from the Federation?”
n“Probably yes,” the system replied. Langdon’s voice was too loud just now, the system heard it as well. “Only pirates and federal warships can navigate freely in this galaxy. I think they were targeted when they robbed the merchant spaceship.”
nTheir important marriage partner has disappeared, so how could the Federation not send someone to look for him. Any suspicious spaceship would be investigated, not to mention the nearby interstellar pirates.
