Chapter 522: Carnivorous Mermaid vs. Sickly Merchant (14)

Lu Cha gently cut her palm with a dagger and placed it on Yu Chen's lips:

"Mermaid blood can cure illness and prolong life for humans."

"I am willing to share the secrets of the mermaid tribe with you. I just hope you can be healthy and safe."

The little mermaid spoke seriously, with the purest light flashing in her clear eyes.

Yu Chen was stunned, pursed his thin lips, and swallowed the blood flowing from Lu Cha's palm.

Whether it was a psychological effect or the effect of mermaid blood, the discomfort in his heart gradually disappeared.

What replaced it was an unprecedented warmth.

After the wound on his palm healed, Lu Cha took a cup, cut the skin again, and collected half a cup of Yu Chen's blood.

We need to let the little villain drink more.

Otherwise, what if the little villain’s body can’t hold on any longer when he’s halfway through brewing the sauce in the future?

"I will give you blood every day from now on, and try to make you get better soon."

Hearing Lu Cha's words, a hint of sarcasm appeared in Yu Chen's eyes.

The mermaid royal family is simpler than ordinary mermaids.

Telling the secret to a human you've only known for less than a week, aren't you worried that he might do something bad?

But seeing the girl lowering her head and blowing on the wound on her palm, as if she was afraid of the pain, Yu Chen's eyes fell on the cup she stuffed into her hand.

The blood in the cup was a shockingly bright red under the sunlight.

I'm so afraid of pain, but I cut my hand twice...

He raised his other hand as if possessed by a ghost and stroked his lips which were burning with pain.

The little mermaid's blood with a strange fragrance mixed with his blood and spread on the tip of his tongue.

Yu Chen suddenly felt his heartbeat starting to quicken again.

[Ding—Villain’s favorability increased by 5. The villain’s current favorability is 11.]

After asking the servant to clean the pool in the backyard, Lu Cha went back.

The smell of blood on her body is so bad. She will go crazy if she doesn’t take a shower!

While Yu Chen was standing there, rubbing the cup in his hand in a daze, Yu Ming walked over and was stunned for a moment.

The man standing against the wall had his shirt mostly stained with blood, and a piece of fish skin and a strange tooth necklace were scattered at his feet.

There were also traces of bright red blood on the lips, showing bite wounds of varying severity.

The little mermaid ruined the gentleman? ! ! !

But Yu Ming didn't dare to ask. He suppressed the shock in his heart and spoke cautiously:

"Sir, I just received a call from the research institute. The test results on mermaid blood and scales are out."

"Fish scales do have the effect of beautifying the skin. As for mermaid blood, it can not only repair damaged organs in the human body, but also treat diseases. However, the extent of the treatment requires further testing."

"People at the research institute have already put the scales into use, and there are over ten thousand customers who have placed orders."

Hearing this, the haze in Yu Chen's eyes dissipated and he regained consciousness:

"I will personally test the therapeutic potential of mermaid blood, and let the research institute focus on developing scale products."

The value of this little mermaid was higher than he expected.

It would be a pity to directly dissect and remove the heart.

What's more, he needed the little mermaid to help him complete something.

-

Lu Cha did what he said and asked the servant to bring a cup of fresh mermaid blood to Yu Chen every day.

After a few visits, she became familiar with Aunt Zhang, the maid who took care of her.

This day.

Aunt Zhang came to bring Lu Cha breakfast and also brought a ceramic figurine of the Little Mermaid, which she placed on a rock by the pool.

"You often stay here by yourself. With it by your side, you won't feel lonely anymore."

"Thank you, Aunt Zhang~"

Lu Cha's eyebrows curved, and her golden tail fin hanging in the water swung gently, as if to express her happiness.

Aunt Zhang lovingly touched the little mermaid's soft golden hair and couldn't help but sigh:

How could there be such a well-behaved and beautiful mermaid?

She wants to get one!

While eating, Lu Cha asked, "Aunt Zhang, do you know what Yu Chen has been doing recently?"

"I haven't seen him in three days."

Aunt Zhang shook her head, indicating that she was unaware: "Except for Yu Ming, no one knows the master's whereabouts, and he would not reveal it to us servants."

"Maybe Mr. has been busy with the group's affairs recently."

As Aunt Zhang was speaking, she suddenly saw a man walking towards her from a distance. She stood up in panic and stepped aside.

The master has given orders that no one is allowed to touch the mermaid at other times except when delivering meals.

She chatted with the little mermaid and gave her gifts, which violated her husband's orders...

Aunt Zhang nervously clutched her apron, ready to be punished.

At this time, Lu Cha stretched out her hand towards Yu Chen, with a piece of exquisite pastry in her palm:

"This is delicious, try it."

"You haven't come to see me these past few days, and I have no appetite. If Aunt Zhang hadn't coaxed me, I would have starved to death."

The little mermaid pouted her pink lips and looked at Yu Chen coquettishly, but her words were actually speaking in support of Aunt Zhang.

Yu Chen did not expose Lu Cha's little trick. He waved his hand to signal Aunt Zhang to leave, thus letting her go.

After all, he had important things to do today.

Yu Chen walked towards the pool, took the cake from Lu Cha's hand, and put it back on the plate without tasting it.

"you......"
