Si Chen looked at her with a wronged expression and pouted his little mouth. "Baby... you don't want me anymore?"
"You want your black eyes to be neat?" She glanced at him coldly. "As the captain, you don't have any imposing manner at all."
When he heard this, he shamelessly moved closer and rubbed against her arm. "Hehe, what imposing manner do I need in front of you? I'm just your lower body."
Mu Xun glanced at him indifferently. Her entire being was cold and elegant. "Who did you meet today?"
He continued to rub against her and giggled. "A little handsome guy."
"Huh?"
"Ahem, a little brat." He quickly put on a serious expression and brought the documents and check in front of her. "He asked me to find this person and even gave me such a large deposit."
Mu Xun took the documents that he handed over and received the check. She raised her eyebrows slightly. "500,000?"
"That's right. That kid is not only handsome, but also quite rich." Si Chen nodded repeatedly. He was also stunned.
"This job isn't easy to do." Mu Xun frowned and crossed her arms as she analyzed, "If it was easy, it wouldn't be so expensive."
"Baby, don't you think that kid isn't sensible? That's why he gave so much money."
"I can't rule out this possibility." Mu Xun thought for a moment and reached out to touch Si Chen's head. Si Chen smiled with enjoyment.
She withdrew her hand and picked up her chopsticks. "Eat. I still have a mission later."
Si Chen frowned when he heard that. "You went to accept a mission by yourself again?!"
Mu Xun's eyes flashed and she nodded. "Yes."
She picked up a prawn and placed it into his bowl. "Peel it."
Si Chen washed his hands with a displeased expression, but he still peeled the prawn for her. His voice was a little gloomy. "Mu Xun, I said that I can feed you. Your job is too dangerous. As the vice-captain, you don't have to work so hard..."
Mu Xun didn't say anything and continued to eat with her chopsticks.
Si Chen peeled the prawn for her and continued to peel the crab. He continued, "Mu Xun, I'll let you live in the best house and eat the best lobster in the future. We'll have a bunch of children and live the most stable life."
Mu Xun took a towel from the side and wiped her mouth. She smiled faintly. "You know, there are a lot of people who are suffering like us in the past. Although I'm not a saint, I hate what those people do. We have to get rid of things that are intolerable no matter what."
"I know, I know... But you're a woman."
"Huh?"
Si Chen saw that she was about to get angry and quickly continued, "I don't mean to look down on women, I just don't want you to work so hard."
Mu Xun smiled faintly and ate the prawns he peeled. "Isn't it good for us to work hard together?"
"Hehehe." Si Chen immediately laughed foolishly. He hid the bitterness in his heart. Indeed, his current ability couldn't give Mu Xun a stable life, nor could he heal the wounds in her past.
It was good for them to work hard together... However, as a man, he didn't want his woman to work so hard...
"Oh, right. Feng Yulin told me last time that there's a special ability user in Yunhai state. However, he's quite powerful and has activated all of his abilities. If we find him, we'll definitely be able to get everyone to activate their abilities. By then, we won't be so sullen."
"Is that so?" Hearing the news, Mu Xun curled her lips. "Let's go find out who that powerful person is tonight."
"Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Baby, let's keep eating and eat more. Look at how skinny you are."
Mu Xun frowned and pinched his face. "I think I've gained weight."
Si Chen also stretched out his hand to pinch her face. With a wide smile on his face, he said, "No, no, no, you not fat. You look the most beautiful like this."
'I'll work hard to make my baby fat, and then she'll belong only to me.' With that thought in mind, Si Chen peeled the prawns much faster.
