Didn't you go to Teyvat to earn money to support me?

Sue: That's because he knows you're a Fusion Warrior and won't be afraid of being bitten. But May is just an ordinary human, and Eve would be careful even if she struggled.

vv: Awesome! The doll looks like a cat with its fur standing on end but forced to submit to force, which is incredibly cute! I didn't expect the doll to have some muscles. Hmm, this combination of cuteness and masculinity is wonderful! I really want to lick the doll's collarbone! But Mei, did you change into new clothes? I've never seen you wear this outfit before.

mei (replying to vv): I wear it occasionally outside of work hours.

Canned food! Put my can down! : Wow, Sister Mei, you have such a great figure! Hehehe, I never realized before, I really underestimated you, Sister Mei. But the baby is as cute as ever, hugging Sister Mei with her eyes closed, looking scared and waiting for the shot like a koala! Speaking of which, the baby is quite a big kid now, how can Sister Mei still carry her?

Mei (replying to Canned Food! Put down my canned food!): Don't underestimate me. The baby only weighs forty kilograms. I'm also a member of the Fire-Chasing Moths.

Pink Fairy Miss: Seeing Mei and Doll still so loving makes me so envious! I'm so jealous! Ahhh, I really want to hug Doll and tease him while giving him a checkup, seeing his annoyed look on his face because he can't do anything about it is so funny! But why does Doll treat me so roughly every time I do this?

Canned food! Put down my canned food right now! : Sister Alice, how did the doll treat you?

Pink Fairy: Oops, I accidentally revealed a secret~

(Miss Pink Fairy retracted a message)

Sakura: Maybe it's just that you, Alicia, are too enthusiastic. Doll's personality isn't really suited to dealing with overly enthusiastic people, so he usually just doesn't bother. But Doll likes you too, so he just chooses to express his feelings in a more direct way, you understand.

Mei (replying to sakura): That's enough. Some topics are not suitable to be discussed in the group.

Su: Do you guys discuss children's education in the group? Hmm, what do you mean by "more direct approach"?

Mebius: Haha.

Pink Fairy Miss?: Hehe.

Sakura: Hehe.

vv: Men don't need to know so much, and you don't need to concern yourselves with the upbringing and education of children.

Su: ...The way you put it makes me even more curious.

Mei: Instead of chatting in the group, why don't you help me with some work? Su, could you help me with tomorrow's proposal? You seem pretty relaxed, but I'm already too busy today!

Su: I can sense Mei's resentment... Okay, okay, I'll shut up. I'll really stay anonymous this time.

The group chat remained lively. As Mei posted her medical report and photos for the day, comments praising the photos flooded in. Since there were only three boys out of the fourteen people in the group, the chat was primarily dominated by girls, who all enjoyed discussing Eve.

Mei breathed a soft sigh of relief, managing to smooth over a secret that was only tacitly understood among the female fusion warriors. Sue had almost noticed something, but Mei wasn't worried.

Even with Su's intelligence, he probably never imagined that the secret the girls at the Fire Chaser Base were keeping together was so absurd.

Although the secret, even if exposed, wouldn't have much impact, most people at the Fire Chaser Base no longer cared about the frivolous affairs of men and women. This was a base where they worked day and night for the survival of humanity. In fact, Mei thought the choices those girls made to relax were understandable. After all, the pressure of living and working here was too great, and pursuing a certain degree of physical pleasure was not a sign of moral depravity.

However, the exposure of this secret would ultimately be a bad thing, and might even cause some instability. May didn't want that to happen. She knew very well that humans were creatures easily blinded by jealousy, anger, and possessiveness. But Eve didn't understand human emotions; he didn't even understand what he had done, and it was unfair to make him unknowingly face the malice of some people.

Thinking about it, Mei lowered her head and looked at the boy who was lying on her lap, enjoying his lap pillow despite his unhappy expression.

"He's really a little wolfhound," Mei said, shaking her head helplessly.

At that moment, Mei heard Shen Liang's stomach rumble.

"hungry?"

Shen Liang nodded. He had inexplicably transmigrated to the Fire Chaser Base, and before he had even eaten a bite of food, he somehow brought his hunger with him.

Mei got up and picked up the order terminal; the kitchen staff at the Zhuhuo base were ready to deliver meals at any time. However, ordering delivery took a long time, so Mei also grabbed some nutritional supplements and compressed biscuits from the bedside table.

Shen Liang showed an obvious look of disgust.

“I usually eat this when I work overtime late at night. It tastes pretty good. Let me fill my stomach first.” Mei pulled out a chair at the dining table and sat down. Shen Liang, who was familiar with the place, naturally sat in her lap, his head naturally pressing into Mei’s chest. His little bottom sat on the smooth silk stockings under his sweater dress, rubbing against the woman’s chin, and then he opened his mouth.

He was already very skilled at this, and it was obvious that the woman was too. Shen Liang didn't feel there was anything wrong with his childlike, wait-to-be-fed posture, because he seemed to always be like this in front of this woman; in front of Mei, he had always been that child who was unconditionally pampered.

Mei Wei, Shen Liang will eat.

And so the woman held the little boy in her arms, feeding him while he sat in the high chair. What should have been an intimate and ambiguous affair turned out to be quite ordinary. The black-haired woman's body was pressed almost against the black-haired boy's, the soft and fragrant sensory stimulation making Shen Liang feel refreshed and happy.

After eating until he was about 80% full, Shen Liang stretched and then moved around in his chair to face Mei.

Mei thought he was full and wanted to act cute or something, but Shen Liang just reached behind her, wrapped his arms around her through the openwork of her backless wool dress, and freely felt the wonderful touch of the woman's skin on her waist. Then he looked up at Mei innocently.

Mei looked at him, puzzled.

Shen Liang opened her mouth and bit down on a strand of long hair on Mei's cheek, then gently tugged at it.

This action made Mei Weiwei fall silent.

She had spoken with Velvi and roughly understood what Eve meant when she made that gesture. Eve probably didn't quite understand that this request couldn't be made to just anyone; the education he received at the Fire Chaser Base had always been quite different from that of normal people.

but……

Mei opened the terminal and sent a private message to Alicia.

"Honestly, what have you been teaching Eve all this time?"

"Asking that question, did the doll bite your hair?" The reply came very quickly, almost impatiently.

Mei could easily imagine how Alicia, that pink-haired fairy, was feeling right now. She was probably covering her mouth and secretly delighted, or maybe even laughing hysterically! She had been most involved in Eve's education, and if Eve turned out like this, it was very likely that she was responsible.

“He’s looking at me expectantly right now, what should I do? Ellie, you’re the one who raised him, you have to take responsibility.”

“Well, normally, when Eve is low on energy, she only has two states. One is hunger, and the other is hunger in another way. Now that she’s full, the other kind of hunger is what needs to be addressed! May, you know that too.”

"..."

"But look at the baby's eyes in my arms, so pitiful, so expectant, so adorable... Waaah, how can you bear to let him down? How can you bear it, how can you bear it, how can you bear it? I love the baby's pleading eyes at times like this, those eyes are practically saying you're the most beautiful and charming person in the world, I just... just can't refuse!"

"..."

Mei was too lazy to argue with this pink fairy who kept spouting nonsense. She turned off the communication, glanced at him helplessly, suddenly squeezed her legs together, and looked at the boy whose expression had instantly twisted, saying indifferently, "Eve, are you sure?"

"Alice said that the experiment on my genetic survival is still missing a sample of an ordinary human." Shen Liang said indistinctly, enduring pain that a man would never be able to bear, while biting Mei's long hair.

Mei was silent for a moment, then chuckled.

“This excuse… I can’t think of such an excuse, Ellie, you’re such a jerk.”

Shen Liang looked up at her, her beautiful, clear red eyes filled with anticipation. "Mei, you don't want to?"

"It's not that I'm unwilling, okay? There are so many older sisters at the base who like you, can't you get the experimental data from them?"

"No plum blossoms...it's beautiful."

plum:"……"

What an honest child, so completely unashamed! He truly deserves the name "Eve," and he's certainly worthy of being raised by Alicia! He's a man of his word, he never lies, and if he likes you because you're pretty, he just likes you because you're pretty! Mei didn't know what expression to use when facing him.

Mei had imagined this day many times. Maybe it would be her wedding night, maybe she'd be on her honeymoon in the far east of the Mu Continent, maybe she'd be wearing a wedding dress, maybe she'd be wearing a grass skirt from the beach. Of course, it was also possible that, given her personality, she would live a lonely life, since Kevin, with his personality, would most likely never truly confess his feelings to her in the end.

However, I didn't expect this day to come so soon, but the person involved is an adorable young man, not anyone I had ever considered.

But it didn't matter; things always turn out unexpectedly. Since it was necessary for the experiment and would make Eve happy, May couldn't find a reason to refuse.

“If it’s for recording experimental data, it might not be possible.” Mei rubbed the boy’s waist and said seriously, “I’m in my safe period today.”

"It's okay, I'm very good," the long-haired boy said stubbornly.

“What does that have to do with being good…” Even Mei was amused by the boy, then she tried to stop laughing, lowered her head and kissed the boy’s lips, “I understand, my little knight, you are better, so I’ll leave the rest to you.”

Shen Liang happily pounced on her and knocked her down onto the table.

Chapter Three: "Does the baby need to drink goji berry tea?" "Yes, I do!"

When the first rays of morning light shone into Mei's bedroom, it was 6:30 a.m. local time.

Mei opened her eyes, and her first reaction was that something was wrong. Judging from the brightness of the room, she knew that she had overslept, probably more than ten hours ago, from yesterday evening until now.

What's quite strange is that Mei usually only needs seven hours of sleep to wake up normally and feel refreshed. But this time, even though she slept for so long, she felt weak and limp all over, and her limbs ached from overstretching.

Then she realized she was asleep on the pillow, and felt an itchy sensation around her neck as Shen Liang's long black hair gently brushed against her skin.

Mei turned around and saw a handsome young man, less than 1.5 meters tall, lying on her back, his hands reaching through the openwork of his backless sweater to hug her slender waist. His face was buried in the slender and elegant groove of her back, and he was breathing evenly, fast asleep.

Black hair intertwined with long, black hair, its smooth blackness contrasting beautifully with the large expanse of white skin in the morning light, creating a breathtakingly beautiful human figure. Mei suddenly felt reluctant to break the tranquility and admired the boy's sleeping face for a while, until the terminal on the bedside table beeped.

Mei gently pulled away from Shen Liang's embrace, looked at the red marks all over her body that had healed and were no longer very noticeable, and chuckled to herself.

She could probably guess why she had overslept today—or rather, fainted.

Mei opened the terminal, and her relaxed mood turned somewhat hesitant.

There were over a dozen missed calls—from Kevin, Sakura, and Alicia—but these could be put aside for now. Since work had already been delayed, the responsibility for that delay had to be borne. To Mei's surprise, even Möbius sent a text message. This woman rarely got involved in other people's affairs; she was almost always engrossed in her research, even though the Son of Man project wasn't her main focus.

Möbius: Look for me first when you wake up.

Mei finally couldn't maintain her indifferent expression any longer. Although she herself didn't seem to care much, it appeared that more than one person at the Fire Chaser base had guessed Eve and her situation yesterday. That's true; if Alicia could guess, why couldn't the other girls?

The beautiful black-haired woman, now a woman, glanced at the boy with black hair reaching his hips beside her and connected to the terminal: "Dr. Mebius, you can send a message directly if you need anything. There's no need to wait for me to get up. Your matters are usually quite important, and I'll get there even if I don't rest."

The voice on the other end of the microphone belonged to Dr. Mebius, the top researcher of the Firemoth, but the voice was unusually childish. A voice that was clearly that of a little girl chuckled and said, "Really? But calling you so late at night is not good for your health."

Mei exhaled and relaxed her clenched fist.

Mebius, that woman whose mouth never utters anything savage, has the most venomous tongue in the base. She can spout such vulgar and obscene things without leaving anyone speechless! Not a single swear word!

“I couldn’t finish my work yesterday. I was planning to work overtime to finish it, but I couldn’t hold on and fell asleep.” Mei changed the subject. Of course, she wouldn’t explain why she fell asleep because she couldn’t hold on to anything, but she knew that Möbius would definitely guess.

"I see. Remember to complete the gene preservation report. Whether Eve can reproduce is still unknown. Perhaps it's because the fusion warrior genes are too aggressive that your importance as a human sample is even greater," Mebius said flippantly. "Keep it up, Mebius."

What's there to work hard at?! How can you even work hard at this?

Mei felt embarrassed and annoyed, but Möbius deliberately instructed her in a serious tone, making it difficult for her to retort.

"Enough, let's stop joking around. You'd better leave some dignity for the baby. Right now, he probably thinks you're at least a dignified, perverted doctor." Mei lowered her head, seemingly finding Shen Liang's expression cute. Her expression softened, and she knelt on the bed, letting Shen Liang rest his head on her thigh, even though the expensive black pantyhose she was wearing was full of rough tears and rips.
