But such a pure summer, when she heard the mirage say the words to marry her, she stood on the street and cried.

There was no sound when she cried, but her eyes were red, tears kept overflowing from them, and even her lips trembled slightly.

The mirage panicked for a moment.

Panicked and at the same time, I couldn't help but feel lost.

He stepped forward to take the basket from Chun Xia's hand, and then turned his head sideways without looking at her, only muttering in a low voice:

"If you don't want to, ......"

"I do!"

He didn't finish a sentence when he was directly interrupted by the girl.

Junxia stretched out his hand and wiped it on his face, then turned the mirage face to himself, and raised a big smile into his eyes as he stared at him seriously.

"I do, Xiying."

Mirage managed to control the expression on his face and look less ecstatic, and then pulled Junxia back home without hearing anything.

Chun Xia was still saying that she had been waiting for this sentence for a long time, but looking at the mirage's urgent steps, she couldn't help but stare at him and laugh.

- Well, it doesn't matter about those things, there is something about what he has been waiting for, and he is willing to say this.

Chun Xia set out to prepare for the wedding ceremony very vigorously.

In the eyes of youkai, ten years may be very short, and it is also very possible to pass after a good night's sleep.

But for human beings - how many decades can a human being?

Especially for people like Junxia, who are born with strong spiritual power that puts a great burden on their bodies, their lifespan will also be affected by this.

But Chun Xia didn't want to think about such a thing at all.

When she heard Mirage say that, she had already decided in her heart that she had no room for regret at all.

It's the same with mirages.

He struggled for a few years because of the different lifespans of the two people, and he missed those years.

But the moment he saw Chun Xia obviously being ridiculed and embarrassed, but still smiling and talking to others, Mirage felt that he had something to worry about.

- It is already an indisputable fact that he likes her, and even says that he loves her.

And he knew that no matter how long his life was in the future and how many people he met, he would never meet someone like Junxia again, who could make him smile just by thinking about it.

Since Chun Xia's time was already doomed, why did he waste it on struggling with these doomed and unanswered questions?

Weddings are simple, but they're not alone.

There weren't many humans who were close to them, and they came in twos and threes to express their congratulations and left, but after dusk, a large number of unknown monsters sent gifts in an endless stream, and some even brought their own wine, and held a carnival in the house of the Junxia family.

Not long after getting married, Junxia became pregnant.

The mirage who heard the news was more worried than happy.

- The offspring of youkai are usually very rare, let alone a youkai like him, which is not common in the first place.

It's just that Junxia is very calm about this, and she said lightly: "Maybe it's because I'm a human, so it's easier to leave an heir than a simple youkai...... Mirage, don't you want me to leave you an heir? ”

Usually when Chun Xia didn't say anything, Mirage couldn't fulfill all her wishes, not to mention that she was looking at him with such a blank expression now, and all the worries in her heart were blocked by her eyes.

- It's okay, if the human world is not safe, go back to sea.

He is a unique monster there, and it is difficult to see either humans or youkai, so it should be very safe at sea during the period of recuperation.

With this in mind, Mirage took her back to the sea after asking Junnatsu's opinion.

The sea is indeed very safe, and there are many fewer monsters who want to replenish according to the breath, but before the mirage can breathe a sigh of relief, it discovers a bigger problem.

Mirage is a big monster, and his heirs naturally can't be said to be ordinary.

But how much energy does it take for a big monster to grow?

At the very least, as a human being, it is far from enough for Chunxia to provide.

Youkai is naturally cold-hearted, and he thought several times, otherwise he wouldn't want this child, but looking at Chunxia's expectant gaze, he couldn't say anything.

- Since Chun Xia can't be asked to give up this child, then, she can only find energy elsewhere to replenish her body.

Mirage begins to purposefully control an island and wander the seas, hunting all the youkai he encounters.

But there were few monsters on the sea, and he hunted like this again, and it didn't take long for him to encounter monsters after wandering around for a while.

As time passed, Chun Xia had become weaker and weaker, and she was only in her twenties according to human time, but she looked already twilight with her stomach up.

"Are you feeling okay today?"

"Ah...... I am fine. ”

Junxia sat in front of the window with a mirage like this, and then replied with a smile.

Mirage looked at her eyes that had lost their luster in silence, for a long time, her voice was a little astringent, but she barely laughed:

"That's good, that's good. Do you have anything you want to eat? You've lost a lot of weight now, and you don't look as beautiful as you used to. ”

"Huh? Are you sure? That's a ...... But it doesn't matter, you don't know, human pregnancy is like this, just wait for the child to be born. ”

Mirage opened his mouth, but didn't say anything more after all.

- What do you want to say?

It was impossible for Junxia to give up this child, and it was impossible for him to ignore her wishes.

Seeing that he was silent, Junxia smiled hard and began to describe the cute child in his imagination.

"Guess he's a boy or a girl? I hope it's better to be a boy, just like you...... But it's fine if it's a girl, it's the same as me......"

As she spoke, her breathing gradually sank, and when she looked down, she saw that she had closed her eyes, and her heart was full of sorrow at the moment.

- After there is no monster flesh and blood supplement, the time for Chunxia to be awake has become shorter and shorter, like today, only now he has been awake for less than half an hour.

Mirage hugged her, and couldn't help but have a smile on his face that was more ugly than crying.

After all, he set his sights on humans.

Rumors of sea demons gradually spread in the human world.

Junxia didn't know what Mirage had done, her belly was getting bigger and bigger, but surprisingly, she didn't feel as tired as she used to.

It wasn't that long ago that it was finally time to give birth.

Qiao Xi tightened the folding fan in his hand, not knowing what to say for a while.

After a long while, he looked at the mirage and said softly, "What about Mrs. Chunxia now?" Will I be able to meet her? Maybe it can help. ”

The look on Mirage's face was like crying and laughing, and he looked at Qiao Xi with a pair of eyes, but the focus of his gaze fell on an unknown place somewhere in the space:

"It's too late...... But it's too late. ”
