Chapter 221
Louis put down his hand that was about to reach out. He didn’t mind carrying Xi Ning. Hearing Xi Ning say this, he went to the cabinet and took out a pair of slippers and a new set of toiletries.
Xi Ning was sitting on bedside. Louis’ trousers were too long for him, he bent down and rolled up his trousers. Louis came over to put down his things and helped him roll them naturally.
In the first world, Song Zhou did the same when he took him to his house. Xi Ning was secretly happy while staring at him, and when he finished rolling up the trousers, Xi Ning suddenly jumped towards him.
Louis hugged him in his arms with a puzzle expression. “Didn’t you say you can walk by yourself?”
Xi Ning kept silent. Louis assumed that he had just changed back to human form so he couldn’t walk, so he got up and carried him to the bathroom.
When Xi Ning was able to stand by himself at the sink, Louis crossed his arms and leaned against the door to look at him.
Xi Ning felt that his hair was a bit long. It was fine when he was in the mermaid form, but it was inconvenient when he changed into a human form. He hung up the towel and brushed his hair with his hand. “I want to cut my hair.”
Louis was a little surprised when he heard this. Although he had not seen other mermaids with his own eyes, he had seen portraits. Mermaid’s hair usually was waist long, but Xi Ning wanted to cut it when his hair was already so short.
He looked at it carefully. “You don’t need to cut it, it looks good this way.”
Xi Ning shook his head, “It doesn’t look good, I want to cut it.”
He had already washed up, and Louis picked him up and walked out of the bathroom, “I’ll take you to get a cut later.”
The spaceship had everything that was supposed to be there, and naturally there were also people who could do a haircut. After Louis put Xi Ning down on the bedside, there was a knock on the door.
He went over to open it and saw that it was Langdon, who hadn’t appeared in several days, and he was still holding the clothes Louis wanted.
Langdon came to look for Louis, and he met the subordinate who was delivering the clothes on the way so he helped him bring it to Louis. He didn’t know that Xi Ning was in Louis’s room. After he handed the clothes over, he said, “Boss, the people of the Federation already know…….”
Louis immediately came out and closed the door, he took Langdon far away from the room. “What’s going on?”
Langdon glanced at Louie’s room blankly, and said, “I saw it on the Federal News Network. They have found that His Royal Highness Cyril’s spaceship has lost contact and presume that it has a high probability of being attacked. They are currently preparing a warship to go out to find clues.”
When this kind of news was known to the public, the federal president not only lost their reputation, but also had to deal with the sea clan. It should not have been posted directly on the news network. Most probably someone deliberately leaked out the news, but Langdon didn’t care much about the Federal Affairs. He just came to tell Louis about the news.
If Louis wanted to exchange Xi Ning for a ransom, it was not too late to communicate with the Federation.
Louis said “Got it”, and waved his hand to tell him to leave.
When he returned to the room, Xi Ning was still obediently sitting beside the bed without moving.
“Wear this, it will fit you better.” Louis gave him the clothes, not sure if Xi Ning heard anything just now. “Can you wear it yourself?”
Xi Ning picked it up and took a look. Other than the clothes and pants, there are also socks and shoes, he nodded and said nothing.
Louis was nervous and said gently, “What’s the matter?”
“Go out quickly.” Xi Ning kicked his leg and pointed to the door. “I want to change.”
Louis grabbed his ankle and pinched it. “Wait a minute, is your name Xi Ning or Cyril?”
“How did you know the name Xi Ning?” Xi Ning’s eyes were wide open, thinking that Louis had remembered something, but heard him say, “You told me last night.”
The system also came out to testify. Xi Ning was slightly disappointed. He took Louis’s hand and wrote his name in his palm, using the previous explanation, “This is my nickname, no one else knows it.”
Louis clenched his palms tightly and said, “Only I know it?”
He just asked casually, but Xi Ning really nodded. Louis asked several times in disbelief, “Really? I heard that the more beautiful the mermaid is, the more good they are at deceiving people. You are not deliberately coaxing me to make me happy, right?”
Xi Ning couldn’t help but kick him again. “Then are you happy now?”
Louis was clearly in a good mood, so he left the room with satisfaction and let Xi Ning change his clothes.
After he left, Xi Ning unbuttoned his shirt while thinking about what to do next.
He heard what Langdon said just now. Either the Federation had received the news that the interstellar pirates demanded a ransom, or Louis had not sent a signal yet, but the Federation had discovered that the spaceship had been hijacked.
