Meng Shuo became impotent; he was too indulgent back then, and could easily make hundreds of thousands a day.
After washing his hair, Mu Yu casually dried it with a towel. The damp strands of hair clung to his forehead, making him look exceptionally sweet and gentle.
Ruan Mingchu's heart suddenly pounded violently for a moment.
It was fleeting, but Nguyen Minh Thu recorded this unusual state.
Mu Yu said to Ruan Mingchu, "You guys go take a look around first; the hair dyeing process will take three hours."
Ruan Mingchu shook his head, saying that his pheromones would fade or even disappear once he left.
Mu Yu pulled a low-temperature tube out of his pocket, the kind he used to store his own pheromones for Ruan Mingchu.
He shook the cryogenic tube. "Fill it up. If it gets too bland, I'll release some."
Ruan Mingchu felt a little disappointed, not understanding why, but he didn't care. He simply took the low-temperature tube and gave Mu Yu a tube of ultra-high concentration pheromones.
Stepping out of the barbershop, Ruan Mingchu looked around, but it didn't seem like things were getting any better.
With his sharp eyes, Tu Aotian spotted a group of people gathering at the street corner, cheering from time to time. He immediately grabbed Ruan Mingchu's clothes and rushed over there.
The reason I haven't forgotten Ruan Mingchu is all for the sake of his good friend. I have to keep a close eye on him and not let him get involved with other women.
Ruan Mingchu was dragged by Tu Aotian for half the city just to catch up with a parade of acrobatic performers.
Mu Yu washed his hair and applied several coats of dye, finally turning his jet-black hair into silver-gray, which shone brightly in the sunlight.
He looked at himself in the mirror, from left to right, and no matter how he looked at it, he felt that his hair color was not as good as Ruan Mingchu's.
Moreover, Tony the hairstylist gave him a new hairstyle, which didn't look very good to him at first.
Mu Yu walked out of the barbershop, smelled his own scent, and took out a low-temperature tube to replenish his pheromones.
Although the terminal was unusable in this world, Ruan Mingchu's skill allowed the two to communicate across thousands of miles. Ever since returning to the spaceship and not seeing Mu Yu, Ruan Mingchu insisted on using the skill as soon as they were separated.
In this unfamiliar world, what if I really get lost?
Ruan Mingchu told Mu Yu that they were watching the flower dance at Huabai Square, and Mu Yu said he would go find them.
After walking a few steps, Mu Yu realized that someone was following him. He looked back several times, but the person had hidden himself very well.
So he simply stopped caring and let them follow along; those who were hiding and showing their true colors were not worth worrying about.
Completely focused on following Ruan Mingchu's spiritual guidance to find her, Mu Yu didn't notice that more and more people were following him, or rather, more and more mermaids were following him.
A lone, unclaimed human, with only a few pheromones floating around him, saw Mu Yu replenishing his pheromones with a cryogenic tube and assumed that Mu Yu was an unclaimed person.
That pheromone tube was probably stolen from somewhere; they'd seen plenty of these little things trying to struggle like this.
If Mu Yu still had his black hair, perhaps he wouldn't have attracted so many merfolk's covetousness. But he changed to the most popular hair color in Huabai City, and he himself is exceptionally cute and handsome. As a pure human without an owner, it would be strange if he didn't attract the covetousness of some wicked merfolk.
Of course, as an Alpha, Mu Yu had never had this experience before, and he only thought that the person following him was trying to rob him.
Ruan Mingchu and Mu Yu met again on the road. This time, Ruan Mingchu did not stay where he was waiting for Mu Yu to come looking for him.
The meeting place was also exceptionally convenient—a secluded alley, perfect for doing shady things.
Ruan Mingchu, his face grim, said to the empty alley, "Come out."
At this moment, Mu Yu also noticed these mermaids and counted them; there were actually six of them.
"Wow, I didn't expect the mixed-race kid to be so perceptive." The muscular, tattooed man was the first to step forward. A mixed-race person plus a pure-blooded person posed no challenge to him whatsoever.
The burly man's slick gaze lingered on Ruan Mingchu's face as he whistled lewdly, "Wow, the little mixed-race girl is really pretty. Why don't you both stay here today? I guarantee I'll make sure you two have a blast."
The other mermaids also let out lewd laughter, their gazes darting between the two men's faces and bodies.
Ruan Mingchu cracked his wrists, making a snapping sound, his emotions as volatile as a volcano about to erupt, filled with rage.
These six mermaids were no threat; Ruan Mingchu beat them to a pulp in just a few moves, making them cry for their parents and shout that they would never dare to do it again.
But there was nowhere to vent my frustration.
He thought the ABO gender discrimination in the Double Nine Galaxy was outrageous enough, but the racial discrimination in the Mermaid Continent opened his eyes even wider.
Moreover… Ruan Mingchu glanced at Mu Yu. Was Mu Yu, a human, supposed to stay huddled inside the spacecraft and never come out?
Mu Yu lifted Ruan Mingchu's hand and placed it on the side of his neck, guiding Ruan Mingchu's fingers to stroke his glands.
Mu Xiaoyu lowered his head and didn't look at Ruan Mingchu. He said, "I really don't care about this. The idea that Alphas can't be marked is just a set of rules that Alphas put on themselves."
Even though Mu Yu immediately let go of Ruan Mingchu's hand, his fingers still covered the protrusion, and the scenery he had seen before even floated into his mind.
Mu Yu suddenly knelt down on one knee, tilted his head to one side, revealing the side of his neck, "I know, you think so too."
Ruan Mingchu's canine teeth protruded uncontrollably, just like his restless heart.
He swallowed hard, his voice a little hoarse, still trying to convince himself.
"Okay, I'll help you."
It was just a simple act of helping.

It's 11:51 PM now, and this is the first time I've written something with nine minutes left before the update. *facepalm*
44. Tail Shepherd slowly stretched out his hand.
Ruan Mingchu bent down and gently touched Mu Yu's gland with his canine teeth.
Mu Yu's whole body trembled uncontrollably. From Ruan Mingchu's angle, he could see Mu Yu's tense neck muscles and bulging veins. Ruan Mingchu reached out and rubbed Mu Yu's neck. "Relax."
Mu Yu managed to hum out a "hmm," but a strange thought popped into his mind: Could it be that the Omega's canines weren't sharp enough, and he couldn't bite through them even when he was tense?
The next second, the sharp teeth pierced the skin of the gland, squeezing out a drop of red, causing Mu Yu's brain to suddenly go blank.
Then, seemingly endless pheromones burrowed into his flesh through his glands and traveled through his veins.
Mu Yu felt as if his soul had been torn into two parts. One part was enjoying the fusion of pheromones, and the resulting comfort made him feel as if he were walking on clouds, floating on air.
The other part, however, was rejecting Nguyen Minh Thu's pheromones, like a lion whose dignity had been challenged and whose territory had been invaded, roaring and using its claws to drive away the enemy.
Mu Yu had never given anyone a temporary mark, nor had anyone ever bitten his neck. Although he had heard that Alphas marking Omegas only brought boundless pleasure, this was an Omega marking an Alpha. Perhaps it was because the Alpha's dominant instincts were being challenged that he felt both comfortable and uncomfortable.
Although the starting point was wrong, the conclusion was barely correct. Because it wasn't an Omega that bit him, but an Alpha of the same gender as him.
The temporary marking was not a one-way output, but a fusion of both parties. After receiving feedback from Mu Yu's body, Ruan Mingchu began to absorb Mu Yu's pheromones.
Perhaps because he was the one initiating the process, the pheromones fused seamlessly within him, making Ruan Mingchu feel as if he were in a beautiful dream, where everything was unrealistically wonderful.
Ruan Mingchu hesitated for two seconds, then licked the gland she had bitten, her tongue scooping away the oozing blood. Although it sounded shameful, Alpha saliva did indeed have the ability to accelerate gland repair.
The temporary marking was completed, and the two pheromones intertwined, each one in the other.
Ruan Mingchu helped Mu Yu up, and felt a pang of heartache when she saw his pale face. "How are you?"
Mu Yu's eyes were bright. "Very good."
Feeling physically and mentally refreshed. You might not believe it, but both feelings ultimately boil down to one word: awesome!
Ruan Mingchu clearly didn't believe Mu Yu's words; her face was practically glowing white. She secretly decided she wouldn't use these temporary markings again—no Alpha likes being bitten on the neck by an Alpha.
Mu Yu: ...Take another look, I think it's the hair color that makes the skin look whiter.
One thought it was A biting A, and the other thought it was O biting A, but actually it didn't matter, it was all the same, it was just little A being bitten.
As soon as Mu Yu stood up, Ruan Mingchu had to look up at him. A strange feeling suddenly arose in her heart, and the image of an Alpha holding an Omega in his arms and biting his neck flashed into her mind, making her feel terrible.
During the rest of the journey, Meng Shuo always felt that Ruan Mingchu was in a hurry, as if he had suddenly become very eager.
Ruan Mingchu: Thank you for the invitation. I'd like to hold the little fish in my arms.
After touring Huabai City and replenishing their supplies, Ruan Mingchu and his companions returned to their aircraft parked outside the city before nightfall.
When Ruan Mingchu and his group were still several hundred meters away from the aircraft, Liu Meng and her two companions came to greet them. They acted as if the unpleasantness of the morning had never happened, appearing warm and considerate.
As they got closer, they noticed Ruan Mingchu's aura surrounding Mu Yu, and the three of them turned pale for a moment.
Especially Liu Meng, who looked at Mu Yu as if she wanted to devour him. Originally, everyone was on the same starting line. Although Mu Yu arrived earlier, he wasn't marked. Now, after going out for a while, he's been marked. For a while, he'll definitely stick to Ruan Mingchu, leaving them no chance at all.
No, this approach won't achieve the results they want; we have to take some measures.
The moon climbed above the treetops, and it was exceptionally bright tonight.
Liu Meng and the other two secretly sat up in the middle of the night to plot.
Gao Wan: "If we can, we'll quietly climb onto the aircraft later. If not, and we're discovered, I'll go and call Mu Yu away. The rest is up to you two."
Li Yang: "We're just as good-looking as that wooden fish, and we're a million times better in terms of our delicate and supple bodies."
Liu Meng: "You're right, the moon is beautiful tonight, it'll definitely work out."
Without further ado, the three of them applied the hidden balm to their necks, chests, and wrists, and stealthily slipped out of the tent.
However, their first attempt was unsuccessful; they couldn't even open the aircraft door, let alone sneak into the bed.
Liu Meng and Li Yang looked at Gao Wan, who nodded. Gao Wan stood by the door of the aircraft and raised his hand, ready to make a sound as soon as the two hid back in their tent.
Although he was the one who suggested it, he felt extremely uncomfortable now that it was actually happening. Why should Li Yang and Liu Meng go off to have fun while he had to be responsible for clearing obstacles for them?
Gao Wan was already convinced that Liu Meng and Li Yang would succeed. After all, what mermaid has chastity? If she had no interest in them, why keep them around?
Just as Liu Meng and Li Yang were about to turn around, they found that the door of the aircraft suddenly opened, revealing Ruan Mingchu's beautiful face.
Liu Meng swallowed hard. Sleeping with a mermaid like that was a win for her no matter what.
While Li Yang and Gao Wan were still in shock and hadn't reacted, Liu Meng had already reached out to hug Ruan Mingchu's arm, and her body went limp as she leaned against Ruan Mingchu.
Unexpectedly, she neither hugged nor leaned against it, and her body slammed straight onto the aircraft, feeling cold and painful.
Ruan Mingchu had already disembarked from the aircraft and stood behind her. Liu Meng thought she was seeing things and hadn't noticed Ruan Mingchu's movement, so she turned around and approached Ruan Mingchu again.
Ruan Mingchu kept avoiding her, and Liu Meng finally understood that he was just playing around with her.
She tucked her hair behind her ear and gave a charming smile. "You don't need to be shy. Sexual intimacy is a perfectly normal thing. All three of us are clean and we guarantee you a pleasant night."
Ruan Mingchu remained silent. He even began to suspect that Mu Xiaoyu had been deceived, and what kind of people had been rescued.
His silence convinced Liu Meng that he was shy. Liu Meng gave Li Yang and Gao Wan a look, and the three of them surrounded Ruan Mingchu from the left, right and front respectively.
"What are you doing?" Mu Yu's voice suddenly rang out, followed by the aircraft's headlights, instantly illuminating the surroundings and making everyone's movements visible.
Mu Yu strode towards Ruan Mingchu, pushed Liu Meng aside, and pulled him behind him. His anger surged; the fact that his Omega was being coveted violated his Alpha's dignity.
