Chapter 178. Yao Yao, I miss you so much.

When Mingye heard the words "Hairless Party," his eye twitched involuntarily. He thought to himself, "What kind of nonsense is this?"

When Noah saw that he wouldn't agree, his crying grew louder and louder. The high-decibel crying was transmitted through the quantum computer, making Mingye's head ache.

He rubbed his temples, unable to bear the noise any longer, and said helplessly, "I understand, I'll figure something out. The affairs in Snake Scale City are finished, and I should go meet up with Yao Yao now."

Upon hearing this, Noah's lips instantly curled into a smile, and his tears seemed to flow freely as if by magic. He grinned and said, "Good brother, you're a true friend. I'll be waiting for your good news."

(Back to the present timeline)

Meino looked at Lucia with disdain, his eyes cold.

Noah is making a mountain out of a molehill. What kind of trouble can someone who can't even maintain a human form cause?

However, when his gaze fell upon the dense wounds covering Lucia's body and her nine tails hanging limply, he couldn't help but feel a chill.

"Was that the S-class berserk nine-tailed red fox that appeared in the imperial city a few days ago?"

He clearly remembered that his intelligence network indicated that the berserk nine-tailed fox had been killed by His Majesty the Empire with a single sword strike, but he never expected it to still be alive.

Su Yaoyao nodded gently and said, "He is seriously injured right now and needs to recuperate by my side before he can possibly recover to his S-rank strength."

Seeing the concern in Su Yaoyao's eyes, Mingye instantly understood Augustine's reason for not killing Lucia and slowly released his hand.

Su Yaoyao quickly hugged Lucia and asked anxiously, "Lucia, how are you?" At the same time, she sent some mental energy to comfort him.

"I'm fine, Yao Yao." Lucia's voice came through, and Su Yao Yao was surprised to find, "You can talk!"

Lucia then suddenly realized that she had shouted "Don't hurt Yao Yao!" earlier. "It must be because I've been by your side the whole time, absorbing your spiritual energy, that I was able to recover so quickly."

Seeing his wife so intimately interacting with another man, Mingye felt very unhappy.

Without saying a word, he used one hand like an iron clamp to steadily lift Lucia from Su Yaoyao's arms.

Lucia's body, already weakened by her injuries, writhed helplessly in the air, letting out a low whimper, as if protesting the sudden and brutal treatment.

Seeing this, Su Yaoyao was startled and instinctively reached out to stop him, urgently calling out, "Mingye, be gentle, Lucia's injuries haven't healed yet." However, Mingye ignored her and unceremoniously placed Lucia off the bed.

Fortunately, the floor was covered with a fluffy carpet, so Lucia didn't fall and get hurt.

"Since there's nothing else, don't disturb my time with Yao Yao." Mingye's voice carried an undeniable domineering tone.

Lucia lay on the floor by the bed, raised her big, watery eyes, and looked at Su Yaoyao with a pitiful expression. She made a few soft "woof" sounds, as if she was telling Su Yaoyao about her innocence and grievances.

Filled with worry and tenderness, Su Yaoyao's gaze was fixed on Lucia lying on the floor below the bed. Before she could react, she felt a tightness around her waist and was pulled by a powerful and familiar force.

The next second, she was tightly embraced by Mingye and lay down in his arms. Mingye buried his head deep in the crook of her neck, as if he had found his own safe haven.

He gently inhaled her familiar and comforting scent, her warm breath caressing her neck with a hint of weariness and longing.

She murmured, "I've come all this way, I'm so tired, I miss you so much." Her voice seemed to come from the softest part of her heart, filled with endless longing.

Su Yaoyao sensed Mingye's rare vulnerability and dependence, and a sweet and tender feeling welled up in her heart. The corners of her mouth turned up slightly, with a teasing smile, and she asked softly, "Are you being coquettish?" Her voice was gentle, like a spring breeze, gently brushing against Mingye's heart.

Mingye, this usually cold and aloof man in front of others, was now like a child whose thoughts had been seen through, a blush quickly creeping onto his cheeks.

He tilted his head slightly, bringing his lips close to Su Yaoyao's ear, his voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz, yet clearly audible: "I'm your husband, and I need your care too." There was a hint of barely perceptible grievance in his words.

Upon hearing this, Su Yaoyao's smile deepened, her eyes filled with love.

She slightly adjusted her posture, raised her hand and gently but firmly hugged Mingye, her palm slowly stroking his broad back, again and again, the movements gentle and soothing.

"Have all the affairs of Serpent Scale City been handled properly?" Su Yaoyao asked Mingye softly, her eyes full of concern.

Mingye's lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile, and he replied softly, "Yes, I have decided to stop selling weapons to other planets. It's just that breaking the contract beforehand has cost me quite a bit of money. But it's alright, I can earn it back from His Majesty in the future."

His smile seemed relaxed, but the hardships he had endured were hidden deep in his heart, and he did not reveal a word of it to Su Yaoyao.

In fact, after making this decision, Miyano encountered many obstacles.

Those so-called "allies," accustomed to reaping huge profits from arms deals, naturally disagreed with the peaceful solution proposed by Mingye.

Faced with their strong opposition, Mingye had no choice but to resort to force.

These intense confrontations consumed a great deal of his energy and time before he finally managed to finish the matter.

But for the sake of a peaceful future for the people of Serpent Scale City, and even more so for the sake of walking hand in hand with Su Yaoyao, he felt that all of this was worthwhile.

Mingye gazed at Su Yaoyao with deep affection, slowly raised his hand, and gently touched her face, as if to confirm whether the person in front of him was real.

The person he had been longing for day and night had finally appeared before him in person.

Su Yaoyao suddenly recalled the frightening scene from earlier and scolded, "How could you sneak into the palace in the middle of the night? I almost thought you were a bad guy, you scared me to death!" Her voice still carried a hint of lingering fear, as well as some concern for the person in front of her.

Mingye slightly curved the corners of his mouth, revealing a gentle smile: "I arrived in the capital at night. If I were to go through the proper procedures to enter the palace, I would have to wait until daytime. There are so many complicated formalities, and I would also need His Majesty's permission. I really can't wait any longer. Every second I wait makes my longing for you more agonizing."

His voice was deep and magnetic, sounding like the most affectionate confession in the quiet night.

As he spoke, he gazed into Su Yaoyao's eyes, his eyes filled with love and longing, as if the whole world was contained within them.

He murmured again, his voice filled with endless tenderness: "Yao Yao, I miss you so much."
