His mind was confused and there were strange sounds. Zhou Mian took a breath and suddenly opened his eyes and felt his hand being wrapped.

“Don’t be afraid, I’m here.”

Zhou Mian turned around and saw Cecil sitting beside him, holding his hand. Zhou Mian blinked, thinking he was dreaming.

“A-Mian…”

Cecil lay down and hugged Zhou Mian into his arms. He reached out and tapped Zhou Mian’s forehead, and said, “You little bastard… you are awake now. Does your stomach still hurt?”

Zhou Mian could feel the pain on his forehead and was sure this was not a dream. “It doesn’t hurt anymore…” “Cecil…” Zhou Mian paused but suddenly hugged Cecil.

Cecil was stunned. Zhou Mian hugged Cecil tightly.

“Cecile…”

“I’m here.”

“Cecile…”

“Yeah.” Cecil reached out and gently rubbed the top of Zhou Mian’s hair and whispered, “I’m here.”

Zhou Mian held Cecil in his arms and said: “I…” but was speechless. How could I not miss it? How could he not miss him…

He could lie to himself not to miss him before, but it wasn’t until he met this person that Zhou Mian realized how much he missed him.

Cecil pinched Zhou Mian’s nose and said, “You are a little bastard. Do you know… how much I missed you? You left without saying goodbye and you hid such a big thing from me.”

Cecil gently held his hand. He moved it to Zhou Mian’s belly, covered it, and said, “You…how dare you hide it from me.”

God knows how excited Cecil was when the doctor told him there was a little life inside. He had never been so excited in his life. Zhou Mian buried himself in Cecil’s arms and held him without speaking.

Feeling Wronged?

Cecil couldn’t laugh or cry when he saw this, he was angry and distressed.

“Silly Mianmian, you have to promise me that you won’t do this again in the future, do you understand?”

“Yeah.”

“Swear.”

“I swear…” Seeing Cecil’s serious eyes, Zhou Mian had to raise his hand and said: ” I swear, no matter what I do in the future, I will discuss it with you first. If I violate the contract, I will suffer…”

Cecil covered Zhou Mian’s mouth and said with a smile: “If you violate the contract, your husband will suffer. Cecil will be struck by lightning and die badly.”

“Cecil…!” Zhou Mian glared. Cecil succeeded and rubbed Zhou Mian’s face proudly.

“Mianmian, you must not do this again. Do you know how dangerous it was?” Cecil couldn’t help nagging: “If I hadn’t arrived in time, do you know how serious the consequences would be? If you dare to do it again, I will punish you. Severely punish you.”

Cecil said while caressing the bruise on Zhou Mian’s neck.

“How will you punish me?” Zhou Mian blinked. Cecil raised his eyebrows, grabbed Zhou Mian’s chin, and kissed him fiercely.

“Hmm…!”

This kiss was full of passion and intolerance after a long separation, and the storm, the roar of the mountains, and the tsunami. Cecil kissed him hard, broke into Zhou Mian’s mouth, and stirred him up wantonly, kissing Zhou Mian until his face turned red and his whole body went limp.

“Ha…”

After Cecil withdrew, Zhou Mian took a deep breath. Cecil smiled and said in Zhou Mian’s ear, “That’s the punishment. There are even heavier punishments. I’ll wait until you’re in better condition before I start implementing them.”

“You…” Zhou Mian’s cheeks turned red.

“So…next time, don’t do this again.” Cecil squeezed Zhou Mian’s hand turned his head and said, “I…I felt really bad. I was worried that I would go crazy in the past few days since you left. I was worried that you wouldn’t be able to sleep or eat well, that you would be bullied, or that you would be in danger. I wanted to go find you, but I couldn’t do it. I was going to go crazy.” Zhou Mian looked at him blankly.

“I’m sorry…” After a pause, Zhou Mian leaned in front of Cecil and whispered: “But, but… I missed you too.”

Cecil paused. Zhou Mian buried his face in Cecil’s chest and said in a muffled voice, “I felt bad too…”

Cecil was petrified on the spot. “Mian Mian…” Cecil held down Zhou Mian again and kissed him fiercely…

After the two finally calmed down their excitement, Cecil held Zhou Mian and slowly talked about the situation that day.

Zhou Mian and Chi Ying fell into the river. At the same time, Cecil led the federal army to fight with the pirates. Afterward, Cecil immediately jumped into the river and rescued Zhou Mian, but they did not find Chi Ying. His body was not found, and it was not known whether he was dead or alive.

“But the good thing is that the pirates were almost wiped out by us, and only a small number escaped. It will be difficult for the pirates to rise again.” Cecil grinned: “It’s all Mianmian’s credit.” Zhou Mian rested his head on Cecil. He held his arm and listened to him quietly, feeling very at ease.

“Right…!” Zhou Mian was in a daze but suddenly remembered something very, very important. “Before I passed out, I was holding a necklace in my hand. I…”

“Don’t worry.” Cecil smiled and said, “I saw you were still holding the necklace after you fainted, so I put it away for you.”

Zhou Mian breathed a sigh of relief.

Cecil curiously asked: “Whose necklace is it?”

Zhou Mian: “It belongs to Chi Ying.”

Cecil: “…”

Zhou Mian quickly explained: “It’s the antidote!”

“…Huh? ”

Zhou Mian said slowly: “I went to the pirate ship this time to find an antidote for you… Chi Ying had it, but he hid it. I had been quietly exploring the pirate ship without finding it until that day when I kidnapped him. When I arrived, I found a necklace hanging around his neck during the conflict.”

Cecil was stunned.

Zhou Mian said: “I remember that necklace very clearly. It used to contain the male insect king’s poison! Fortunately, I got it back this time…”

Cecil only felt bitter in his heart. “Silly Mianmian…” Only then did Cecil realize that Zhou Mian was looking for his antidote.

“You…” Cecil sighed heavily, “I don’t know what to say about you.” Cecil felt dumbfounded. One of them went after Dark Phoenix without telling the other, and the other went to the pirate ship alone to work undercover without telling the other. They both went for each other, but they said nothing.

“Mianmian, let’s not hide anything from each other in the future, okay?” Cecil also promised Zhou Mian: “I will tell you something in the future, respect you, and will not make decisions on my own without your authorization. I also have wronged you.”

“Okay.” Zhou Mian raised his lips: “Then… where are we now?”

After all, the room was dark for Zhou Mian to have a good rest. Zhou Mian knew that he was in the aircraft, but he didn’t know where the aircraft was at that moment.

“We are still… in Higurashi City. The Federation has to clean up the battlefield and take care of the prisoners.” Cecil touched his nose and said, “But don’t be afraid, Mianmian, it’s all in the past. I’m with you.”

‘Don’t be afraid.’ Zhou Mian smiled.

Cecil also laughed, kissed Zhou Mian on the forehead, and said: “Anyway, leave it to me. Now that you have a baby, don’t run around for me. Fortunately, the injury was not serious this time, otherwise it would have been serious. I feel better when you are with me.”

Cecil said: “Mianmian, protecting the baby is also protecting yourself, you must be careful. Otherwise, if something happens to the baby, you will be affected. If something happens to you again, I will go crazy.”

What Cecil is most worried and concerned about is Zhou Mian.

“Okay.” Zhou Mian lowered his eyes and glanced at his still-flat belly.

Baby…

“Cecile…” Zhou Mian looked up and said after realizing, “We have a baby.”

“Yes. Yes.” Cecil put his hand gently on Zhou Mian’s belly and stroked it, “It’s our baby.”

Zhou Mian blinked and said, “Do you prefer boys or girls?”

“I like them both. I hope he behaves well.” Cecil tapped Zhou Mian’s belly and said, “The one in the belly, be quiet and be good when you are born, and don’t mess with my Mianmian. It is best to be thinner so that it will be easier during the birth. However, when you are born, you must be more naughty and lively. After all, you are the next federal director, man. If you are a man, you should be taller, and if you are a woman, you should be taller and more imposing.”

Zhou Mian was stunned when Cecil said this.

“Pfft…” Zhou Mian couldn’t laugh or cry, “How can you be like this?”

Cecil also laughed, hugged Zhou Mian, and said, “Go to sleep. I’ll stay with you.”

“Okay…”

Cecil hugged Zhou Mian, watching him slowly fall asleep again. He lowered his head and kissed Zhou Mian on the forehead. “Silly Mianmian…”

After Zhou Mian rested for two days. He finally regained his strength and could get out of bed and walk around.

“Cecil, before I leave, I…want to take a walk around Higurashi City.” Zhou Mian made such a request after finishing a bowl of porridge.

Cecil was stunned and frowned: “If you want to go out to bask in the sun or walk around or something, I can take you somewhere else. Just don’t go to Higurashi City.”

Cecil knew that Higurashi City was not a good place for Zhou Mian.

“I want to go.” But Zhou Mian was persistent.

Cecil raised an eyebrow. Zhou Mian smiled and said, “Just stay with me.”

Cecil sighed and thought ‘What I hate the most is that this person is acting like a spoiled brat and I have no power to fight back.’

In the end, Cecil took Zhou Mian off the main battleship and went for a walk in Higurashi City. The City still looks the same as that day, but the people around it have changed.

“This is the first family that took me in. They opened a clinic. I was seriously injured in the suburbs. This family brought me back for treatment.” Zhou Mian stopped in front of a small house and said to Cecil.

Cecil nodded.

“This is a bakery, where I first worked.” “This is a bar. I will also come here to help in the future. At that time, there was a cat in the bar, who became very close to me…” “Also Here…”

Zhou Mian introduced Cecil one by one. Cecil knew that Zhou Mian was…saying goodbye. Cecil just responded gently and walked slowly with Zhou Mian.

“Cecil…” After the two of them left, Zhou Mian and Cecil sat side by side on the street corner. Zhou Mian said, “Do you know…how Higurashi City was destroyed in the first place?”

Cecil frowned slightly.

Zhou Mian said: “I was the one who caused it.” Cecil silently held Zhou Mian’s hand.

Zhou Mian leaned against Cecil and whispered: “At that time, I was already the powerful Moon Shadow, and I used my identity to protect the city from pirates. We were all in peace until one day, a virus suddenly broke out in the city. The virus infected quickly and could not be controlled at all. Later, half of the people in the city were infected. The infected people will go crazy, bite, and kill like zombies… They lose consciousness and then become a beast.”

Those who once loved him and were kind to him have become such walking zombies.

Zhou Mian lowered his eyes and said: “I have no choice, I have no choice. To protect the other half of the people, I can only lock up and kill these infected people, otherwise, the virus would have spread more and more.” Zhou Mian still remembers those people who were screaming in the house, and blood flowed from the cracks in the door and windows.

Cecil was stunned. He couldn’t imagine how determined Zhou Mian was.

“But, the other half of the people died later. Because their family members and friends were imprisoned inside, they called me ungrateful and said I was a wicked person, so they imprisoned me too.” The most painful thing is not the zombies and blood in front of him, it was when he was pushed into the abyss by the people he wanted to protect.

Zhou Mian also forgot how he survived. He killed people in that small room until no one left. However, he had a special physique and still did not fall due to infection.

“Later, the doctor couldn’t bear it and quietly released me.” Zhou Mian closed her eyes and said, “But I have a special constitution. Although I am not infected, I already have the virus in my body. The doctor treated me because they were released and infected with the virus, and in the end, the other half also died.”

Cecil could only gently stroke Zhou Mian’s back.

“Later I found out that the virus was deliberately thrown into the well water by Chi Ying. He wanted me to kill them and wanted me to be like him.”

Sinner.

What Chiying wanted was for people to become like him, so that such people could never leave him.

Cecil paused for a moment, then sighed heavily, put his arms around Zhou Mian’s waist, and said, “It’s okay, it’s all over.”

“Yeah.” Zhou Mian leaned on Cecil’s shoulder and slowly closed his eyes. He was no longer afraid, these nightmares were no longer nightmares because Cecil was with him.
