Baby Contract: Forced Deal with a Dragon Chapter 75

Unlike Li Mae who they could not just approach, Wu Jiao was the one who the staff mostly talks to . She always had a smile on her face, regardless of her appearance or gender .  

In reality, if their Captain was not calling Wu Jiao's sister, they could not be too sure what she is . They mostly call her manager as her shapeshifting ability was top notch .  

The Chief Doctor of the ship as well, Ye Jing, was also someone easy to approach if there were any issues that they wanted to discuss but could not tell the Captain or Chief Mate .   At that moment the doctor was not present anywhere on the ship .  

"Ah… Manager, we need clarification . What if something really happened to the captain?" One of the crew asked .  

Wu Jiao hummed as she gets closer to Li Mae . "Just focus on your job for now . Captain Lu is tougher than space platinum so nothing could hurt her . " She assured with a smile . "If you all did a good job today, there would be a bonus for everyone!" 

"Wow! Bonus!" 

"Nice!" 

With the assurance of their captain's safety and the promise of reward, the crew gets back to work in the control room .

Despite that, they could not help but only give half of their focus on their task as they try to eavesdrop to Li Mae and Wu Jiao's future conversation .  

Wu Jiao sat next to Li Mae and watches how she cleaned the blood on her face .  

"What happened? You made the staff worried . Even the passengers and patrons were worried when you left the casino suddenly . " Wu Jiao explained . "Oh! You did a good impression of Ye Jing there by the way . " 

Li Mae only hummed with a smile .   

"Why not just use magic to remove?" Wu Jiao asked unhappily .  

Li Mae shook her head and did not respond as she was still wiping the blood from her face using a handkerchief and she was still not doing a good job for it .  

"Is that what I think it is?" Wu Jiao asked again curiously .  

Instead of replying verbally, Li Mae nodded her head . Her other hand that was still holding the handkerchief was also raised towards Wu Jiao . She wanted Wu Jiao to help with the blood .  

After releasing a heavy breath, Wu Jiao also grabbed the bloody handkerchief and sniffed it . "Ah, this really a blood butterfly message from Sister Lu . What did she say?" She said with a frown before helping Li Mae get her face clean .  

The blood butterfly was a form of a magic message . It was something they have agreed on when something happened that needs urgency . Wu Jiao, however, was more concerned about why Lu Meili decided to send the message to Li Mae who was so bored explaining things .  

It was supposed to be a sweet moment, if not for Wu Jiao roughly using the handkerchief like she was not wiping a female's beautiful face .  

Because Wu Jiao was in a hurry, she did not care how she removed the remaining blood on Li Mae's face . Since it was a spell, it could not be removed by magic and it was also very difficult to wipe it off .  

"Why is it even on your forehead?" Wu Jiao asked frustrated .  

The crew was waiting for Li Mae to be upset, but she did not seem to mind . She even closed her eyes, waiting for Wu Jiao to be finished .  

After a while, Wu Jiao was finally able to remove the specks of blood .   "Tell me, what did you see?" She asked hurriedly .  

Li Mae smiled, but instead of answering, she raised one of her hands, palm facing upward like she was asking for something .  

While glaring, "Are you serious? You want payment?" Wu Jiao questioned almost mockingly through clenched teeth at the same she put her hand in her pocket, trying to get something .  

From her pocket, Wu Jiao produced a black pouch . From it, she got a couple of orange poker chips before placing them on Li Mae's waiting hand .

"Now tell me what happened? Hurry!" Wu Jiao was getting frustrated . It would have been easier of Lu Meili sent the message to her directly and not to Li Mae .  

However, Lu Meili as a captain would normally have a reason for her every action . Just like her suddenly placing herself on a year-long leave . If Lu Meili chooses Li Mae then that means her expertise was needed very badly .  

"You are need-" Li Mae started but was not able to continue due to the noise of the communicator on Wu Jiao's wrist .  

*Ring! Ring! Ring!* 

Since Wu Jiao was busy and more interested to hear about what Li Mae was supposed to say, she closed the entire communicator so no one could contact her in the meantime .  

"Continue-"

*Ring! Ring! Ring!* 

The sound blared in the entire room . Someone was contacting the main control of the ship and with the sound of it, the message was urgent .  

"Answer it! I want to get over it as soon as possible!" Wu Jiao exclaimed in annoyance .  

With that, the call was accepted . A virtual screen appeared from the controls, showing the caller .  

"I am sorry . I need- Manager!" Dex screamed as soon as he saw Wu Jiao and Li Mae in the control room . "I was trying to contact you! We need help! Asap!" He added almost frightened . Dex was a salesperson in the Auction house in the Shou Planet, Dragon country . He was a male fae but wears female clothes and acts like one too .  

Behind him were shelves of items that they sold on the store, which means he was still in the store .  

Wu Jiao frowned in confusion before demanding, "Why are you calling us instead of Mo Rin? She is in charge there! What happened? Where is she?"
