“Dear passengers, this starship is heading to Changping Starport. In half an hour, we will quickly pass through the first wormhole. Please remain seated and avoid moving around…”

Sitting in a four-person cabin by the window inside the starship, Mingmei turned her head and silently watched the various colored starlight shooting from the dark universe outside the starship window.

Just taking a trip on a starship, Mingmei felt that this journey was really good, but… life is mostly unsatisfactory.

Mingmei sighed helplessly in her heart, then turned her head and glanced askance at the two gentlemen sitting in this small private room, silent to each other.

Although they weren't speaking, the anxious atmosphere gave Mingmei the feeling that there was flammable gas in the air, making her vaguely see sparks flying around.

“Want some?”

Mingmei looked up at Ms. Cheshire, who was holding a piece of fruit to her mouth. Finally, she obediently opened her mouth and ate the fruit.

Cheshire's fruit pieces were large, making Mingmei's cheeks bulge, which gave Cheshire a great sense of accomplishment as she watched her eat.

“Ignore them, they’re childish~”

Noticing Mingmei's occasional wandering gaze, Ms. Cheshire comforted Mingmei in a low voice. Mingmei forced a smile and began to contemplate life.

Why did her and Mu Chen's trip coincide with her second brother and his newly minted sister-in-law's honeymoon?

Yesterday, these two took advantage of the Imperial banquet to announce their marriage, and today they ran out for a honeymoon trip. Is that reasonable?

Mingmei glanced at her second brother, who was staring wide-eyed at Mu Chen. Mingming, Mei Qiu himself had told her yesterday that Mu Chen was good, so how did he put on this critical "father-in-law" face today?

"A lone man and a widow traveling together…"

Staring at Mu Chen for a long time, Mei Qiu snorted coldly and said this, then looked at his innocent-looking little sister.

Then another cold snort.

Hmph!

That's right, his sister was being deceived!

Mei Qiu thought so, then directly took Cheshire's hand, intertwined their fingers, stared straight at his sister, and said, "Only this kind of relationship can go out together!"

Mingmei: "…"

Just as Mingmei was about to say something, Mu Chen suddenly chuckled, directly attracting Mei Qiu's attention. oγg

Soon, under Mei Qiu's furious glare, Mu Chen also took Mingmei's hand, intertwined his fingers, and said, "Sorry, Meimei also accepted my pursuit at the ball last night~ Our relationship should also be able to travel openly."

Although Mei Qiu and Cheshire's performance at the opening of the ball last night could be described as the highlight of the night, and the act of announcing their marriage after that affectionate kiss was even more of a scum-reversal of the entire audience and live viewers.

However, this did not prevent Mu Chen from confessing as planned.

He found that Mingmei did not reject his initial hints, and even said something that made him "fantasize."

So afterwards, Mu Chen continued to invite her to dance, and the two danced round after round of waltzes. Finally, Mu Chen confessed seriously again.

"Can you give me a 'legal' identity that allows me to hold your hand openly even after the ball ends?"

Although, maybe, really, it was probably too nervous.

When Mu Chen said this confession, he felt as if he had underperformed _(:3」∠)_

But the result was good.

He and Mingmei finally became lovers.

However, despite this result, Mingmei's words in the middle still startled Mu Chen.

"I think… with your age, you may not get a 'legal identity'."

Mu Chen: ??

"Imperial law states that you can only get married after the age of thirty…"

Mu Chen: !!

Did Mingmei mean that when he reached the legal age for marriage, he would definitely have the so-called "legal identity" in Mingmei's mouth?!

…

The recollection ended here. Mingmei was already feeling prickly from being stared at by her second brother, so she leaned back on the chair and shrank her neck, muttering, "After all, we've been ambiguous for so long, it wouldn't be right not to date… right?"

"Mingmei! Do you know how old you are?!" Mu Chen shouted, "You're an old cow eating young grass!"

Mingmei: ????!

Are you really my brother?

Mu Chen: "…"

"Mu Chen is at least the adopted son of my good brother. In terms of seniority, he's my nephew. You're… ah, you're… how am I supposed to call him in the future? How is he supposed to call me?!"

Mingmei almost thought that Mei Qiu was going to shout something like, "A woman in her thirties dating a young man in his twenties, don't you have any shame?"

Mingmei had already thought about saying that her soul was still young, but… huh?

What the hell are you talking about?

Even Mu Chen had to shake his head and ask, "Are you okay?"

Just as the atmosphere in the small cabin was heading in a tense, strange, and awkward direction, Cheshire suddenly spoke.

"That's enough, if you keep acting, you'll scare your sister and Mu Chen to death!"

"Pfft~ Hahahaha, as expected, you're too young hahahahaha!"

Sure enough, after Cheshire finished speaking, Mei Qiu directly hugged his stomach and lay on the seat, laughing so hard that he couldn't catch his breath.

Mingmei: ???

Did you eat too many LL plums or something?

In this situation, Mu Chen said: Crap~ My fists are getting hard!

"Speaking of which, what kind of look is that in your eyes right now? You wouldn't be holding back some bad idea and thinking about hitting me, would you?"

Mei Qiu, who was just rolling around on his seat laughing, suddenly looked up and stared straight at Mu Chen's eyes, which had not yet retracted his unhappy emotions.

Mu Chen was caught red-handed.

"No…" Mu Chen twitched the corner of his mouth, averted his gaze from his future brother-in-law, and turned to look at Mingmei.

"There's still some time before we fly through the wormhole. It'll be completely dark and we won't be able to see anything. It's a good time to close your eyes and rest for a while."

After speaking, he thoughtfully pressed the sleep mode button on Mingmei's seat, then nodded to Mei Qiu and Cheshire, and also adjusted his seat to sleep mode.

Soon, Mu Chen watched the brown cover rising above his head, completely enveloping him, isolating the curious gaze opposite him.

Body and mind at ease!

Mu Chen lay there and let out a big sigh of relief!

He had already begun to express his admiration for Ms. Cheshire for being able to get together with Mei Qiu.

Is Mei Qiu like this in private?

Mu Chen had never expected it.

And Mingmei was also lying there quietly, thinking about her second brother's crazy acting, which was also a moment of telepathy with Mu Chen—

How did Ms. Cheshire see that her brother was acting?

Are they really a match made in heaven in a different way?

And looking at the two people in front of her who were avoiding her like ostriches, Mei Qiu couldn't help but let out a disdainful "tch" sound. He turned her head and looked at Cheshire with an innocent face, and said aggrievedly, "They're not very good at taking jokes~"

Cheshire smiled without saying a word, following the other party's words, but the movements under her hands were swift, directly sending the fruit that she had just fed Mingmei but had not finished eating into Mei Qiu's mouth…
