Chapter 73: After Abandoning the Innocent Mermaid 11 “Then let me kiss you…
"He's a friend." Fu Wei didn't want Neptune to see her injured hand, so she answered while avoiding Neptune.
There was no change in his expression. Perhaps it was really as Fu Wei said, an ordinary friend.
The hope in Pei Xinghui's eyes completely disappeared. His eyes flickered and he looked at Fu Wei sadly. He seemed to want to speak, but looking at the way Fu Wei and the mermaid hugged each other, he couldn't say anything.
The mermaid nodded, blinking her eyes. She asked softly, "Is he a good friend you've known for a long time?"
Fu Wei: "We've only known each other for a long time."
But they are not good friends. In fact, his current relationship with Pei Xinghui can hardly be considered as friends.
The mermaid heard this and looked sad. She propped her chin up and asked, "Even longer than you've known me?"
Fu Wei hummed.
The mermaid's eyes turned red, and she said pitifully, "So I was the last one to meet Fu Wei. Fu Wei, I'm so sad. Now that you have this big brother, will you leave me behind in the future?"
Fu Wei: "What nonsense are you talking about? Why would I not want you?"
The mermaid then smiled again. "You said it, don't lie to me."
Fu Wei nodded: "I won't lie to you..."
Before Fu Wei could finish her words, the mermaid's nose twitched, and she suddenly smelled a bloody scent. She looked at Fu Wei with burning eyes: "Fu Wei, are you hurt?"
Fu Wei hid her right hand behind her, blinked, and said innocently, "Really?"
Neptune grabbed Fu Wei's hand, looked at her in disbelief, and shouted, "Why is your hand bleeding?"
He looked at Fu Wei's face again, but found that her beautiful eyes were red, and the red mole at the corner of her eyes was so red that it looked like blood.
Crying.
He had only left Fuwei for a short while.
Why is Fu Wei crying!
"Did someone bully you?" After a pause, Neptune glared at Pei Xinghui and asked him with bared teeth, "Did you bully Fu Wei?"
Pei Xinghui was at a loss, not knowing how to answer or how to explain what was happening.
"I'm sorry, I..."
"It's not him." Fu Wei interrupted Neptune. His little mermaid usually loved to act coquettishly and eat all kinds of delicious food. She was very easy to coax.
However, once he encounters something that happens to him, he becomes very irritable, especially when he finds himself injured. He is extremely scared. He will also write down those who bully Fu Wei or say bad things about Fu Wei in his little notebook, even if Fu Wei tries to stop them. He will definitely find an opportunity to take revenge on Fu Wei.
Especially now, he looks like he wants to eat up all those who bullied Fu Wei.
Just now she was nestling in his arms, acting soft and coquettish, but in the blink of an eye, the silly fish turned into a shark, which was quite cute.
Neptune then gathered his spiritual power, held Fu Wei's palm, frowned and said, "But why is it bleeding? And it's injured like this, it must be very painful."
Fu Wei herself didn't shed a tear, but Neptune's eyes were red, and she was heartbroken.
Fu Wei gestured for Neptune to look at the blood-stained rose that had fallen to the ground, and said gently, "I just picked a rose and accidentally squeezed it tightly, not noticing the thorns, and that's how it became like this."
Neptune immediately said, "It's all because of the thorns on this rose. One day, I will remove all the thorns from the roses in the world so that you won't get hurt."
What a silly mermaid.
My first thought was not to blame myself for being careless, but to pick roses.
Instead, he blamed all the roses for having thorns that hurt his hands.
Fu Wei couldn't help laughing, thinking that this fish was really good at finding reasons.
"Alright, alright. We'll be fine after we go back and bandage it. It's getting late. Let's go back."
Neptune nodded and skillfully tried to push Fuwei's wheelchair, but saw Pei Xinghui standing there motionless. The mermaid looked at him puzzledly: "We are going home, aren't you going home?"
Pei Xinghui just lowered his eyes and looked at Fu Wei.
Fu Wei said, "Neptune, he's going home with us and will stay at our house for a while."
When the mermaid heard this, she became jealous and her eyes were full of accusations.
Didn’t they say they were just friends? Even though they had known each other for a long time, he and Fu Wei were not good friends, so why should he live in their house?
And why Pei Xinghui looked at Fu Wei with strange eyes? Although Neptune didn't understand, he had a very strange premonition that this so-called friend might be here to snatch Fu Wei from him.
No, I must find a way to get this person out.
Neptune then smiled innocently and said seriously, "Since you are Fu Wei's friend, you are our guest. I will take Fu Wei's wheelchair. Please go first, guest."
Pei Xinghui shook his head: "Fu Wei and I have known each other for many years. She is not a guest. It's okay. I can just push the wheelchair."
Sure enough, he came to compete with me for Fuwei!
Neptune was almost furious, but he couldn't make Fu Wei angry, so he said generously: "Since you want to push the wheelchair so much, then I'll let you push it. I won't push it anymore."
Upon hearing this, Fu Wei raised his eyebrows, feeling that this fish would not give up so easily.
After all, ever since Neptune got his legs, he has been doing everything personally regarding Fuwei, except for Aered, who is almost in charge of everything.
Now that he is so generous, there must be something fishy going on.
Sure enough, after Neptune said this, he came to Fuwei, bent down, and picked up Fuwei horizontally.
"Fuwei, I'll carry you home." After saying that, he gave Pei Xinghui who was pushing the wheelchair a very provocative smile.
Fu Wei was a little amused and felt that Neptune had not made much progress in other aspects over the years, but his ability to be jealous had improved. However, Fu Wei could not dislike him at all and thought he was so adorable.
The final ending was that Neptune was holding Fu Wei and walking in front with big strides, while Pei Xinghui was pushing Fu Wei's wheelchair and walking behind with a lonely look on his face.
When they returned to the mansion, Neptune originally planned to carry Fu Wei back to her room directly to avoid having to continue to interact with Pei Xinghui, a man with bad intentions.
But Fu Wei patted his shoulder and whispered, "Put me down. General Pei and I have a few words to say."
It turns out that this man is a general.
He has a very high status, no wonder he wears a military uniform, but that is not as high as Fu Wei's.
He is not as good-looking as me, he is not as tall, has a worse figure, and has a worse face. Most importantly, I take care of Fu Wei meticulously, but he doesn't even bother me.
And Fu Wei also said that she likes to be alone, so she definitely doesn’t like Pei Xinghui.
The mermaid was successfully convinced by her own words and felt that she and Fu Wei were destined to be together.
Neptune nodded: "Okay." Then he stayed obediently by Fu Wei's side.
Pei Xinghui finally had the chance to ask. He looked at Neptune and asked, "Who is he?"
Fu Wei did not answer immediately. Instead, she asked Neptune with a smile, teasing him, "I don't know what our relationship is. Come on, tell me yourself, who are you to me?"
When Neptune heard Fu Wei ask him this, his eyes lit up and he said proudly, "We sleep together, and I like him, and he likes me too. We have the relationship you think we have."
After the words fell, Neptune rubbed Fu Wei's cheek again and said coquettishly, "Fu Wei, don't you think so?"
Fu Wei nodded: "Yes, yes, yes."
Pei Xinghui's eyes were dim and deep: "I understand."
The mermaid was puzzled. “What do you understand?”
Pei Xinghui looked at Fu Wei deeply for many times and said, "But I won't give up. I will make you change your mind. I will prove to you that I am the most suitable person for you, Fu Wei."
Fu Wei chuckled: "General Pei drank at the banquet and might be a little drunk. He started talking nonsense. Ai Ruide, go take General Pei back to rest."
Ai Ruide came out and said respectfully: "Admiral, please come this way."
Pei Xinghui had no choice but to leave reluctantly.
Fu Wei has been sleeping in the same bed with the mermaid since three years ago, because he found that he didn't have to go to bed and kiss the mermaid in order to heal his body. He could also sleep with the mermaid in his arms every night.
It just so happened that he didn't mind the mermaid's closeness, so he just followed the mermaid.
After they finished washing up, the mermaid hugged Fu Wei and said coquettishly, "Fu Wei, Fu Wei, tell me quickly, do you like me more or Pei Xinghui more?"
Fu Wei answered without hesitation: "You."
Then the mermaid got furious and asked in disbelief, "So you still like him?!"
Fu Wei: “…” Oh no, I’ve been fooled again.
He found that Neptune was usually silly, but as soon as he faced him, he immediately changed from a naive and innocent person to a shrewd and calculating fox.
I always manage to trap myself.
Fu Wei: "I don't like him, I only like you."
Neptune nodded with satisfaction and asked, "If he and I fell into the water, who would you save first?"
Fu Wei: "..." How could there be such a boring question in the world? Neptune was the only one who could come up with it.
"I'll save you first."
Neptune said, "But I can swim, will you save me first?"
Fu Wei nodded: "Well, then I'll save you first."
Neptune was happy again. He asked with a smile: "So what is your relationship with him?"
Fu Wei: "Ex-boyfriend?"
Neptune's good mood vanished in an instant, and he said in disbelief, "What!"
Fu Wei: "Everyone has a rubbish ex, so why should you be surprised?"
Neptune said angrily, "But I don't have one. You're the only one I have. And doesn't that Hui know that a good ex-boyfriend should be dead?"
Fu Wei still had to rely on Pei Xinghui to seize the throne, so he wouldn't let him die. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Neptune whisper, "No, I have to find a chance to kill him."
Fu Wei: "...Don't do this, he is just my friend now."
Neptune retorted, "But I'm still your boyfriend."
Fu Wei didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "So you don't have to care about him anymore. He and I are just some cooperation. I won't abandon you. I still like you the most."
Mermaid: "Really?"
Fu Wei: "Really."
The mermaid smiled slyly: "Then let me kiss you, and I will believe you."
Fu Wei commented: "Rogue fish."
The mermaid knew that Fuwei agreed, so she grabbed the back of Fuwei's head and kissed her, but at this moment, the light brain on Fuwei's wrist suddenly lit up.
Someone made a holographic video call to Fuwei.
Fu Wei had no choice but to push away the aggrieved mermaid. Seeing that it was Gu Ling calling, she immediately got up from the bed, went to the study, and then answered the holographic communication.
As Gu Ling's projection fell into the study, Fu Wei asked, "What's wrong?"
A smile, almost excited, appeared on Gu Ling's slightly pale face. He said word by word, "Fuwei, I finally found a way to allow you to exchange hearts with the mermaid."
Fu Wei's face lit up with joy: "Really?"
Gu Ling nodded. "So I hope you can convince the merman as soon as possible and make him willing to return his heart to you. Of course, if he doesn't agree, that's fine. I've found another way to make the merman unable to resist or self-destruct, so he can only let us dig out his heart. However, the process will be a bit painful."
The joy on her face disappeared, and Fu Wei's face actually looked a little ugly. She listened to Gu Ling's words and couldn't come back to her senses for a long time.
Gu Ling: "Fu Wei, do you regret it?"
Fu Wei: “No.”
Gu Ling: "That's good. Your health is getting worse and worse. You can't even stand for a long time. So Fu Wei, don't joke with your life. After all, he is not a human, but just a fish."
Fu Wei asked again: "How long can I live without the mermaid's heart?"
"Six months. And in the next six months, your health will deteriorate rapidly, even leading to paralysis. You'll spend your final days in a hospital filled with disinfectant, and you'll die in excruciating pain." Gu Ling said word by word, "Fu Wei, you don't want to end up like that."
Fu Wei clenched his fists.
Gu Ling: "One month, Fu Wei, this matter must be resolved within a month, otherwise as your health deteriorates, I cannot guarantee that you will be able to walk off the operating table alive."
Yes, he was unwilling to accept this. He had been chasing power and strength all his life, trying to prove that he was not a poor wretch who survived by relying on others' charity.
So he cannot regret. He has already come this far. If he retreats, what awaits him is the abyss and death without a burial place.
I'm sorry, Neptune.
"good."
