Chapter 165 Science Fiction‧Prostitution Rebel Leader (Seventeen)

“Xiaoxuan, Xiaoxuan…” He heard a man whisper, “Will you… forget me.”

“You are my favorite person…” The woman smiled slightly, as if she was saying something that was natural. “Even if my memory disappears, even if I fall into reincarnation, even if I become countless different appearances, I will never forget you.”

“But you lied to me,” the man laughed hoarsely, and he heard the sad weakness in the laughter, “You said… but you lied to me.”

Who is he?

Xia Huaijin thought blankly that the woman’s voice was so familiar, it was the woman he desperately wanted to save.Xiaoxuan…who is Xiaoxuan talking to?Who is the person she loves most?

For no reason, Xia Huaijin thought of the first time he met Ye Xuan. It was raining lightly and he saw male Unity Party members surrounding a woman.Originally, he would not care about this kind of thing. He couldn’t stand the radicals’ behavior of using civilians as a means of venting their anger. However, due to the cooperative relationship between the two parties, his eldest brother warned him several times not to cause trouble.He could only glare at Yan Laosan in disgust, and was about to leave, but was stunned when he caught a glimpse of the woman.

It was a strange feeling. Even if Xia Huaijin later became lovers with Ye Xuan, for some unknown reason, he did not tell Ye Xuan that feeling.Very familiar, very kind… There was an invisible force driving him, shouting loudly, but to save her, to protect her, and never let her die – and Xia Huaijin didn’t even see the woman’s face clearly..

Now, this strange feeling comes again.

It’s just that the voice repeated over and over again, only three words that sounded like babble.”Can’t die, can’t die, can’t die…” It was that man, Xia Huaijin suddenly realized, as if a voice from the depths of his soul was lingering in his mind, “Can’t die, can’t die, absolutely can’t die…”

“Xiaoxuan, I’m still waiting for you.”

Wait, Xia Huaijin thought, am I… going to die?

Yes, he vaguely recalled that Xiaoxuan was kidnapped by the male Unity Party. He led his men to pursue him, but during the exchange of fire with the enemy, he was attacked by an unknown ship.The battleship he was on exploded, and at the last moment he escaped in a rescue capsule, but lost consciousness in the huge impact of the explosion.

What about Xiaoxuan?Xia Huaijin immediately thought, is she okay?Are there any injuries?

“She’s waiting for you,” the voice said softly, “Don’t die, she’s still waiting for you…”

“This is…” Jin An looked at the beautifully bound paper foldout in Fang Yuan’s hand, “Invitation?”

“Wedding invitation.” Fang Yuan raised his hand with a wry smile and opened the invitation. In the center were eight large characters: bride, Ye Xuan, groom, Lu Ping.

Jin An’s face turned cold for a moment: “It’s only been one year, can’t Ye Ru not wait anymore?”

“What do you mean it’s only one year? If she can wait for one year, she is probably the ninth younger brother and sister… No,” Fang Yuan sighed, “It is also the result of Miss Ye Xuan’s hard work for a long time.”

“After all, she is his daughter. How can Ye Ru bear to ignore her wishes?”

“Then what can we do,” Fang Yuan’s smile became more and more bitter, “Lao Jiu has been nowhere to be found. We have sent people to look for him for so long, but still…” This rough and arrogant man suddenly couldn’t say any more. The ship he was riding in suffered a big explosion. Even if Xia Huaijin managed to escape, a year has passed and he still has not come back. Anyone with a discerning eye can think that he may never come back.

“Although I am dissatisfied with Ye Ru’s behavior,” Fang Yuan closed the invitation, not wanting to read the two dazzling words behind “groom”, “what position do we have to keep Miss Ye Xuan waiting.” Not only did they have no position, after receiving the invitation, they also smiled and sent blessings, “If Lao Jiu is really… I think, he will hope that Miss Ye Xuan will forget him and start a new life.”

“Yes, a new life…” Jin An raised his head, the sky was as blue as water. One year had passed, and for the 80 million men in the Nebula Empire, a new life was about to begin.

Just three months ago, the resistance organization represented by the Men’s Liberation Front was finally recognized as legitimate by the government. The fighting between the two sides had stopped half a year ago. The government agreed to establish a Men’s Rights Agency to study and submit various policies and measures to protect men’s rights, with Fang Yuan as the director.The bill to abolish the male hierarchy also entered the voting process five months ago. On the day of Ye Xuan’s wedding, it will be completely abolished.

In order to breed the population, each male needs to go to the breeding center in each city to provide sperm on a monthly basis, but other than that, they are no longer divided into three, six or nine grades, and they can live freely and combine with their lovers freely.A large number of political prisoners who had not committed serious crimes were released. Xia Huaijin’s name had been on the wanted list since he was sixteen years old, and now it has finally been taken down.

Flicking through the newspaper in her hand, Ye Xuan’s hands trembled uncontrollably when she saw the news headline: “The stigma of the past is finally over, and where is Xia Huaijin now?”

Just half a year after she was under house arrest, she finally met Fang Yuan.By that time, her mother had already won the election and became the supreme governor of the empire.Under Ye Ru’s guidance, the relationship between the government and the resistance organizations has been greatly eased, and Fang Yuan, a former terrorist, was even able to visit the home of the supreme governor.

“It was my initiative,” Fang Yuan smiled, “Although Ms. Ye doesn’t welcome me very much, I still think I should come and meet you.”

“Lao Jiu is missing and we have been looking for him.”

“After you were kidnapped, he rushed to rescue you without stopping, but…”

“We know that you were rescued by Ms. Ye. The general election was about to happen. Ms. Ye reached an agreement with us. We will not publish your information. After she takes office, she will formally submit the proposal to abolish the male hierarchy.”

Ye Xuan sat motionless, Fang Yuan’s voice was in her ears, but she felt like she didn’t hear anything clearly.

“It’s all in the past,” Fang Yuan finally stopped, he smiled bitterly, “After all, colleagues, Jiu… Miss Ye Xuan, please live a good life. I can understand your mother’s approach. Lao Jiu, that silly boy, wants money but no money, status but no status, and is still a wanted criminal. He…” He seemed to be choked, paused for a moment, and then recovered, “He can live with you, he must be very happy, you…”

“I will wait for him.” Ye Xuan finally spoke, she said softly and seriously – just like she had promised Xia Huaijin, they would overcome all difficulties just to stay together.

“I’ll wait for him.”

But now, she broke her promise.

When her mother cried in front of her for the first time, Ye Xuan finally couldn’t hold on any longer.

“He’s dead!” Veins popped out on the back of Ye Ru’s hand that was holding her daughter’s arm tightly. “Even if you wait until the end of the world, he won’t come back!”

He promised me that no matter what difficulties or setbacks, he would never back down.Ye Xuan thought in a daze, so, did he lie to me?It seems that there was once a person who looked at me with a smile like this, “You said it…but you lied to me.”

Who lied to whom?Who betrayed whom?

Ye Xuan thought that she was really confused.Living in a haze, not knowing where I am or who I am.She let the man put on her wedding dress, picked up the bouquet, and led her into the oldest existing church on earth.Countless pairs of eyes were looking at her. Today, when the male hierarchy was officially abolished, Miss Ye Xuan, the daughter of the supreme consul and a promoter of the men’s rights movement, held a wedding in a simultaneous live broadcast on hundreds of millions of video screens in the empire.

The priest’s voice was deep and rich: “Lu Ping, do you want this woman to be your wife and enter into a marriage contract with her? No matter in sickness or in health, or for any other reason, love her, take care of her, respect her, accept her, and be loyal to her forever until the end of your life?”

“I do,” the groom whispered.

“Ye Xuan, do you want this man to become your husband and enter into a marriage contract with him? No matter in sickness or in health, or for any other reason, you will love him, take care of him, respect him, accept him, and be loyal to him until the end of your life?”

“I…” I don’t want to, of course I don’t want to, but Ye Xuan just answered mechanically, “Yes.”

Hearing this, Ye Ru, who was sitting in the first row, breathed a sigh of relief.The priest then asked the many guests watching the ceremony: “Are you all willing to bear witness to their wedding vows?”

This was originally just a matter of routine, and no one would dismantle the host at this time.Just when everyone was about to speak, suddenly, a firm voice sounded——

“I don’t want to!”

The church was buzzing in an instant. Guests, priests, grooms, all the spotlights turned to the man who suddenly appeared at the door.

He was wearing a black shirt, with a stern profile and gloomy eyes, just like when Ye Xuan met him for the first time. He held Ye Xuan’s arm tightly, bringing only support and strength to the woman who was trembling with fear.

At this time, he walked into the church step by step, and the noise retreated from him, just like Moses crossing the Red Sea. When he finally stopped in front of Ye Xuan, everything became quiet.

“Huai Jin, Xia Huai Jin…” Ye Xuan stood precariously. She thought she was in a dream, but the face of the person in front of her was so real.

“Why?” She didn’t expect that the one who broke the silence was the groom beside her, whom she had never met a few times. “What is your reason, sir?”

“Because I promised her,” Xia Huaijin smiled, that gentle, firm, yet lingering smile that almost made people cry, hanging on the corners of his lips, “No amount of difficulty can stop me from loving her.”

So he escaped from the hands of death, and the rescue capsule he was in drifted in space for half a month, and was finally discovered by the pioneers.When he was rescued, his brain had fallen into a deep sleep.The doctors thought he was dead, but after relying on a ventilator and nutrient solution to maintain his life for a year, he miraculously revived.

“She is waiting for you, she is still waiting for you…”

Yes, she kept our promise, and how could I give up.

Xia Huaijin suddenly knelt down on one knee. The bride’s soft, boneless hand with long silk gloves was placed in his palm, and seemed to be trembling slightly. “Xiaoxuan, do you still remember what I said?” He raised his head, as if there were stars twinkling in his black eyes, “I am willing to fight for you, no matter what. Now that I have returned in triumph, will you marry me?”

“I…” Ye Xuan, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke. She opened her lips slightly and tears fell from her eyes. “I do.” With a snap, the tears fell on Xia Huaijin’s open palm.

He suddenly closed his palm, holding Ye Xuan’s hand so tightly that it was almost embedded in his flesh.Everyone couldn’t help but exclaimed, and saw the tall man standing up, hugging the bride sideways, and running wildly with her in his arms.

Time overlapped at that moment.

In the dark rainy night, in the chaotic slums, the noisy footsteps and the swishing sound of bullets were heard endlessly. Ye Xuan nestled against Xia Huaijin’s chest. She thought that this was probably the happiest moment she had ever felt.

“Huaijin,” Ye Xuan’s hand groped and stopped on Xia Huaijin’s left chest, thump, thump, thump – that was his violent heartbeat, “I am very happy.”

Even happier than that time.

“Ma’am, this is your email.”

After receiving the package presented by the home robot, Ye Xuan couldn’t help but frowned. In an era with such advanced technology, who else would use the ancient transportation method of mail?She was about to open the package when Xia Huaijin came over and asked, “What is this?”

“I don’t know, maybe an old friend sent it here.” The package only had the name and address of the recipient written on it, and no information about the sender was left.

“Do they know your new address?” Xia Huaijin picked up the package and looked at it. He didn’t see anything special, so he put it down again.

Ye Xuan thought about it. She had just moved and she only informed a few of her close friends.Because of Xia Huaijin’s spectacular wedding robbery in front of hundreds of millions of people, the newlyweds had become the most famous couple in the empire.Now that the Men’s Liberation Front has been legalized, Fang Yuan has also established a branch in the capital.Originally, Xia Huaijin volunteered to station at the branch for Ye Xuan so that Ye Xuan could live in the capital.But just half a month later, they were almost collapsed by the all-pervasive paparazzi and had to move to Edgeport.

Edgeport is the headquarters of the Men’s Liberation Front, and the paparazzi don’t have the guts to follow them here.Thinking that her honeymoon was ruined, Ye Xuan couldn’t help but glared at Xia Huaijin angrily: “It’s not your fault, otherwise why would we need to move?”

“Okay, okay, blame me, blame me,” Xia Huaijin endured his wife’s anger with good temper. He stretched out his long arms and pulled Ye Xuan into his arms, “I’ll let you punish her, okay?” Ye Xuan ignored him, so he shamelessly rubbed up against her, “Are you on top tonight? Didn’t you say you wanted to… last time?” He teased Ye Xuan with words, while his big hands continued to light up Ye Xuan’s body.

Ye Xuan was made weak all over, and her voice softened unconsciously: “I don’t want tonight… I want it now.”

How dare Xia Huaijin disobey the lady’s words?After that, there was a fierce ups and downs, and after being affectionate with his wife for a long time, Xia Huaijin reluctantly left the house.

Ye Xuan stood up lazily. She originally wanted to take a shower, but suddenly thought of the strange package.”Open it and take a look.” She said to herself, walked to the table, opened the package, and found only a small chip inside.Ye Xuan looked at the chip for a long time but couldn’t figure out why. She pondered for a moment and put the chip into the video device.

The screen went dark, and just when Ye Xuan thought that the chip might be broken, the sound of electric current started ringing.She sat up straight unconsciously, her eyes fixed on the screen for a moment.A stream of garbled data rolled quickly across the screen, sizzling, sizzling… “Huh?” Ye Xuan frowned, she seemed… as if she saw a figure?

She thought she had seen it wrong, and the chaotic scene flashed for nearly half an hour, and the figure began to become clearer and clearer.Ye Xuan’s heartbeat gradually accelerated, her hands clenched into fists, and her palms were filled with sweat.She didn’t know why, but she always felt like she was about to see something extraordinary next.

What is it?Who is that figure?

Finally, the flashing stream of data disappeared.The outline of the figure gradually became fixed, and with a bang, the teacup in Ye Xuan’s hand fell to the ground.

She saw a young man on the screen.The man was wearing a black military uniform, with a handsome face and sharp eyebrows, and he had a pair of——

Golden brown eyes.
