"Not bad. She wasn't exactly someone I could fully trust, but at least for now, she was still under control."
Shen Yi thought briefly before giving what he currently considered a reasonable answer.
Given Fei Mi's temperament, it was perfectly normal for her to dislike Winnie. Yet that was precisely why Shen Yi found Winnie interesting.
Based on what he knew of Shimada Yukimi, that exceedingly gentle woman would never do anything out of line. Naturally, she must have told Winnie about him more than once or twice.
Yet even so, that woman still went her own way, as though she cared nothing for Shen Yi or anyone else.
"Then that's fine, husband."
"There are so many threats outside now. Those alien insect monsters may be nothing to us, but they're still deadly to other Blue Star people. Do you really have no plans for them in the future?"
Fei Mi frowned and looked at Shen Yi hesitantly.
To Shen Yi, those things were more like a pile of annoying fleas. But precisely because of that, they were incredibly irritating.
So far, Lin Zhiwei had yet to locate the insects' true location or home planet. Naturally, there was no talk of tracing them to their source and wiping them out. Or perhaps Shen Yi had plans of his own?
That was hard to say.
"After we return from the Shadow World, I'll personally find their source and eliminate the threat once and for all."
Shen Yi's face remained expressionless. His lips barely moved, making it impossible to tell whether he was pleased or angry, yet the chill in his voice made the two women beside him shudder.
"Then when are we going to the Shadow World?"
"If possible, can you take me with you this time? I..."
