Chapter 25: Selling Fruit
"Can I?"
Seeing him like that, she dares to say no?
Ye Xi'an: "It's possible, but how do we raise it?"
"Let me have it." Ji Jiangci reached out his hand to Ye Xi'an, gently taking the rabbit and placing it on his arm.
Stroking from head to tail over and over, his eyes filled with pity, that expression was the same as when he stroked his wife.
Ye Xi'an gave Ji Jiangci a strange look, thinking he must have had a first love with some rabbit spirit; that's how she always reads novels.
"What are you looking at?"
Bao Jing walked over and bumped Ye Xi'an's back with his shoulder, his face grim as he quickly glanced at Ji Jiangci, still immersed in the joy of rubbing the rabbit: "What's there to look at? Hurry up and put your things into your space and leave."
"Yeah, wife, we need to hurry; from here to the First Ring, at minimum it's four hours; if we don't hurry, it'll be dark by evening."
"Let's go, let's go."
Ye Xi'an lightly focused her intent, and all the fruit in the room vanished.
Thus, the family of five, along with a rabbit hugging an apple and nibbling it, boarded the maglev train from the Free Zone to the First Ring.
The maglev trains on Zhu Shen Xing require no manual operation; they run on preset programs. They operate 24 hours nonstop, with a departure every hour, reaching a top speed of 4,000 kilometers per hour.
Besides maglev trains, there are faster aircraft; for the four-hour journey, the aircraft only needs one hour to arrive, so they are more expensive, and each aircraft can hold at most four people. For Ye Xi'an's family, the maglev train is undoubtedly the best choice.
Inside the maglev train, Ye Xi'an casually picked a seat and sat down.
But.... Ye Xi'an stiffly lifted her head to look at the males who had surrounded her in a circle.
Ji Jiangci stood to Ye Xi'an's left, one hand holding the rabbit, the other gripping the overhead strap, his whole body ramrod straight, his gaze fixed on the scenery outside the train.
Bao Jing stood there, handsome and aloof; with his arms raised high, his fitted shirt was pulled up, revealing his firm, handsome abs.
As the train changed direction, Bao Jing's body swayed slightly; since he stood in front of Ye Xi'an, this caused his abs to constantly brush against her face—if she hadn't dodged quickly, she might have kissed them.
The only remaining space on her right was also taken up by Yi Yang; from the side, you couldn't even tell there was a person between the three of them.
As for Ye Ling, he couldn't care less about Ye Xi'an; he found a comfortable spot, sat down, and immediately fell asleep.
Ye Xi'an felt somewhat breathless from being surrounded; she whispered, "You guys.... aren't you going to find a seat and sit down?"
Why are you standing around her? Can't you see everyone else is looking over?
Yi Yang cautiously looked around, gave a warning glare to those males who wanted to look at Ye Xi'an, then turned back and whispered to Ye Xi'an with an exaggerated expression: "Wife, you're a female; you don't know how lustful these males are."
"Most of these males are from the Free Zone and the Slums; they probably will never be marked by a female in their lifetime. Usually, just seeing a female's photo on the street can get them off for half a day, let alone a beautiful female like you, wife, who's like a little fairy."
"If they stare at you too long, I'm afraid they'll go crazy and rush to snatch you; although the three of us are fairly strong among this crowd, we can't withstand their numbers."
Ye Xi'an almost died laughing at Yi Yang's description; who would actually grab a female by hand?
