Chapter 37: "Hina, You Are So Beautiful"

"Chiba, take a break and eat something." Hina's white palm pressed down on the document, preventing Chiba from continuing to read.

Chiba raised his head and glanced at Hina. Under the light of the incandescent lamp, her complexion looked even whiter, and her red lips appeared more glamorous.

In the silent night, the research room was quiet. Chiba could clearly smell Hina's unique fragrance, and the powerful aura of knowledge made him distinctly hear her heartbeat quickening.

The atmosphere became a bit ambiguous as Chiba grabbed Hina's small hand, his gaze gradually growing hotter.

Staring into Chiba's fiery gaze, Hina's heart raced, her pretty face flushed. She tilted her head slightly, avoiding Chiba's intense gaze.

Chiba squeezed Hina's hand and smiled. "I am indeed hungry, and I've been hungry for eighteen years. Today, with such a stunning beauty in front of me, tell me, can I let her go?"

"Ah?" Hina whispered, her face growing even redder.

Chiba pulled Hina into his arms and turned off the lights in the laboratory.

"Chiba, are we moving too fast? Hina is so nervous."

"It's been a whole year; is that fast?"

"But we're not married yet."

"First bridal chamber today, then get married tomorrow."

...

In the early morning of the next day, Hina lay in Chiba's arms.

Chiba rested his head on his hands and looked at the morning star outside the window.

"Chiba, Hina has heard some news recently, and I don't know how to tell you."

"Between lovers, you should be straightforward."

Hina turned over, looked directly into Chiba's eyes, and said, "Now someone outside is saying that the World Government is going to transfer you to study life potions for the Celestial Dragons."

"With your talent, you must be able to research the life potion. But the Celestial Dragons are selfish and cruel; they will never share the life potion with others. So once you really research it, they will definitely kill you to enjoy the potion alone."

Chiba smiled and replied, "Although the Celestial Dragons are powerful, I'm not a pushover. Don't worry; nothing will happen."

"Hina naturally believes in you, Chiba. Your talent is exceptional. If you are given enough time, I believe you will definitely become a Marine Admiral-level powerhouse, even surpassing the Admirals. I'm just worried that the World Government and Celestial Dragons won't give you time to grow!"

Chiba gently rubbed Hina's hair. "Just put your mind at ease. We will get the certificate tomorrow, and you can practice safely and take good care of our children."

"Our children?"

"That's right! I'm a sharpshooter. I fired so many shots today; I can't miss every time, right?"

"Chiba, I suddenly realize you're quite bad."

"Hey, it's too late to find that out now!"

...

Three days later.
