Chapter 11 Mermaid 11

Cheng Qingyuan.

He is the boss of Lianzhu, a middle-aged man with a gentle appearance. He even organizes company members to participate in charity activities every year.

I didn't expect that he was a beast in human form but a beast in heart.

Zhang Jingshu felt disgusted that she had affectionately called him Uncle Cheng. For a long time, she thought Cheng Qingyuan's character was worthy of praise because he ran the company in an orderly manner and provided better employee benefits than other companies. He would even personally inquire about the welfare benefits of the company's cleaning staff and did not have the condescending attitude of a successful businessman at all.

But it turns out that everything is just an appearance.

Zhang Jingshu's rage was futile when she saw Cheng Shuinan's calm and indifferent expression. He did not show hatred or anger, but was just talking about a stranger who left a deep impression on him.

Yes, what's the point of thinking about all that hatred?

He had left the dark and cramped warehouse and came to her home. His new life was about to begin, and the dark and sad years of the past should be left behind... She shouldn't ask too much about his past, as such behavior would be tantamount to reopening his healed wounds.

Zhang Jingshu was deeply moved by the sincere trust he showed in front of her.

"I have nothing to do with him. I rescued you just because I happened to meet you and couldn't bear to see you being abused..."

Zhang Jingshu carefully explained to Cheng Shuinan how humans live and work, and that just because she called them boss or uncle or aunt, it didn't mean they were in the same camp.

She carefully avoided talking about Cheng Qingyuan and Lianzhu Company. Sure enough, Cheng Shuinan's indifferent expression was tinged with curiosity. He resumed his previous leisurely and cheerful attitude, folded his hands in the bathtub, and asked from time to time.

It really is a simple fish.

Zhang Jingshu's emotions are very delicate now. Ever since she knew that the boss of Lianzhu Company was actually the mastermind behind the abuse of Cheng Shuinan, and even those high-selling pearl necklaces were made of mermaid's tears, she felt like she was involved in it and had become accomplices with them.

She wants to quit her job.

But if you leave Lianzhu Company, you will not be able to get any information about the whereabouts of Lianzhu and Boss Cheng.

Cheng Shuinan is his son. If his son escapes, Boss Cheng will definitely catch him back.

Staying in Lianzhu Company can also help you find out about Boss Cheng and respond accordingly.

Thinking this way, Zhang Jingshu couldn't resign.

The enemy is in the open, and she is in the dark.

After explaining everything to Cheng Shuinan, Zhang Jingshu saw that he no longer had that pitiful expression on his face. Perhaps because he saw her squatting there in a daze and ignoring him, he started splashing water with his tail for fun.

Zhang Jingshu took a look and turned away.

Zhang Jingshu was unable to leave. She always liked to stay in the water. The most daring thing she did was to secretly touch her mermaid with her tail fin.

Yes, she knew about his behaviors that he sometimes thought were hidden, but she just didn't expose them.

He jumped out of the water and grabbed her arm eagerly. Zhang Jingshu's arm was held in his cold and sticky palm. Water droplets slid across his drooping palm, and she felt a slight itch where he held her arm.

Cheng Shuinan didn't let go of his hand. His face was anxious. His tail was stretched straight under the water, as if he was half-kneeling in the water. He asked tentatively, "Zhang Jingshu, are you angry?"

"I shouldn't miss you so much. What should I do so that you can forgive me?"

His eyes are so sincere.

Zhang Jingshu smiled and said, "I'm not angry. I bought a cake and gave it to you..."

She glanced at the hand that was tightly holding her arm, then raised an eyebrow at him: "Can you let go?"

Cheng Shuinan quickly let go and lowered his eyes: "Ah, okay."

…

When Zhang Jingshu brought the mermaid home, the only thing she thought about was healing his wounds. She felt sorry for him being homeless, and since she lived alone, she could definitely support him.

But emotions are uncontrollable. After a few days of getting along, Cheng Shuinan's weight in her heart has obviously increased.

Just like today when she passed by the dessert shop, she saw those sweet and lovely little cakes and subconsciously thought of Cheng Shuinan.

Has he ever tasted the cake?

Would you like to eat it?

So, Zhang Jingshu bought an eight-inch mousse cake, which comes in ten flavors. It is a new product launched by the store. She lives alone and has never been so "luxurious" as to buy such a big cake.

She moved the folding table to the bathroom. Since the mermaid came, many of her activities had moved directly from the living room.

The mousse cakes are neatly divided into ten flavors. The bright red velvet is like covered with soft cotton particles, the chocolate is rich with a bitter aroma and is studded with Oreo cookies, and there is matcha mango strawberry tiramisu... Every piece of cake is sweet and tempting, and it is written all over it - come and eat me!

Cheng Shuinan had indeed never eaten it.

When he was born, he had a fish tail like his mother. The mother and son were locked in a room, and the world they saw was what Cheng Qingyuan wanted them to see. That small room, which carried memories of his mother, was actually no different from a prison cell when he thought about it carefully...

For the first time, he touched the free air, the bright moonlight, the blue sky, and the warm and clear water. All of this was brought to him by Zhang Jingshu.

Zhang Jingshu wanted to try every flavor. After getting Cheng Shuinan's consent, he would just nod his head no matter what Zhang Jingshu said. She used a small spoon to scoop out a small piece of each cake and put it on a small plate, and pushed the rest in front of Cheng Shuinan.

Zhang Jingshu took a bite of the chocolate mousse first.

"Why don't you eat it? Don't you like it?"

Cheng Shuinan shook his head, then imitated her and ate a piece of chocolate.

His teeth were similar to those of a shark, with rows of sharp triangular fangs that looked evil and bloody. However, his eyes were so clear that even the terrifying teeth seemed like something meant to scare people.

Zhang Jingshu noticed his sudden satisfaction. His lips were stained with cream, and she gently licked it with the tip of her tongue. Her tender red tongue brushed against his sharp teeth, and her heart immediately rose.

Won't it cause skin abrasions?

Her worries were unnecessary. Even though Cheng Shuinan moved very quickly, she still noticed that the surface of his seemingly soft tongue had frosted particles on it, and the difference could not be seen without careful observation.

They are more like thorns in the flesh.

Zhang Jingshu stared at his mouth curiously. Cheng Shuinan straightened his back, gripped the spoon tightly with his fingers and dared not move. He lowered his head obediently, blushing and letting her gaze fall on his lips without any concealment.

Cheng Shuinan pushed the cake in front of her.

Zhang Jingshu came back to her senses, looking puzzled: "You don't want to eat anymore?"

Cheng Shuinan swallowed his saliva: "I don't want to eat anymore, I'll give it to you."

Zhang Jingshu laughed: "Do you think I'm staring at you because I want to eat the cake?"

Cheng Shuinan nodded.

"I'm just curious if you'll bite your tongue... Your tongue looks sharp, maybe even razor-sharp? Humans, like me, don't have those little bumps. Do you know what they're for?"

Cheng Shuinan shook his head, his eyes quickly sliding across the tip of her tongue sticking out of her mouth.

Zhang Jingshu didn't care too much and pushed the cake back in front of him, signaling him to continue eating. She supported her cheek and looked at Cheng Shuinan quietly, thinking to herself, maybe she could buy him a small toy someday?

He's so cute when he eats.

Zhang Jingshu couldn't help but want to be nicer to him. Looking at his happy face, she was inexplicably infected by his happy mood.
