Xin Sui brought over another bottle of sake.
I poured a glass for myself and Xiaoming.
Jenny: "Sister, I want to drink too."
These days, she uses bubbles to gather information about humans and has seen many scenes of humans drinking alcohol, which makes her very curious about alcohol.
Xin Sui: "You're too young to drink alcohol. Here, have some juice. It's sweet and delicious."
Jenny blinked: "Sister, I'm not young anymore, I'm 86 years old this year."
Xin Sui: "..."
She's old enough to be her grandmother.
However, she remembered that the novel mentioned that Jenny was a mermaid, whose lifespan was much longer than that of humans.
But she subconsciously judged her age based on her appearance and always treated her like a little girl.
"Then can you tell me, at what age does your clan reach adulthood?"
Jenny didn't want to lie to her sister, but she also wanted to taste the wine, so a conflicted look appeared on her face.
Xin Sui: "It's 160 years old, right?"
"Although you are 86 years old, you have the same mental capacity as a seven or eight-year-old girl. In my eyes, you are just a child."
Jenny's eyes widened: "Sister, how did you know?"
Xin Sui gently pinched her nose. "I won't tell you, it's my secret."
Jenny's eyes drooped in frustration, and she rested her chin on the edge of the table.
Her long, seaweed-like blue hair behind her resembled a magnificent silk cloak, enveloping her small frame.
Look how sad the child is.
Xin Sui couldn't take it anymore, "Okay, then I'll let you try a little bit, just a little bit."
Jenny looked up in surprise, her face beaming with joy.
"Really? Thank you so much, sister! You're so kind! I love you so much!"
Who could resist the passionate and sincere love of such a little mermaid?
It's impossible for it to happen in the Xin year.
She had only intended to pour her a capful, but after being showered with compliments, she became dizzy and her hand slipped out of control, pouring her a small cup instead.
Looking into Jenny's big, wet eyes, she couldn't bring herself to say she wanted to go back.
All I could say was, "Drink it slowly, don't drink it all at once."
Jenny: "Mmm!"
She picked up the cup and took a small sip, exclaiming, "So sweet!"
Xin Sui laughed. Sake, well, it's pretty much just a beverage.
She doesn't like drinking real alcohol either.
Just as I put the wine in the pot, I turned around and saw Xiaoming reaching his hand directly into the pot to scoop out vegetables.
"Xiao Ming!"
Xiao Ming quickly withdrew his hand, put it behind his back, and asked innocently, "What's wrong?"
Xin Sui was both annoyed and amused, and was about to say, "You're not allowed to put your hands directly into the pot."
But as the words were about to come out, I felt that it might have the opposite effect.
He then said, "The soup in the pot is very hot. What if you get burned? I'll be heartbroken."
"Come on, let me see if your hands are red from the heat?"
As expected, Xiaoming responds better to gentle persuasion than force. As soon as she said that, he immediately obediently stretched out his hand in front of her like a good boy.
Her little hands were clean and white, without a trace of redness from the heat.
After all, he's a robot, so why would he be afraid of getting burned?
Xin Sui touched his hand and handed him a small fork. "Here, eat with this."
Xiao Ming obediently started using the fork.
Jenny wasn't used to using chopsticks either, so she used a fork to struggle with the food in the pot.
So neither of them laughed at the other, and they ate their meal earnestly.
Xin Sui tied a small bib on the leopard, scooped out the vegetables suitable for it to eat, let them cool, and then put them into its small bowl.
When Xiaoming and Jenny saw each other, they looked at each other and surprisingly formed a united front.
They called out to Xin Sui in unison.
"Xiao Li, I want to eat meat, but I can't get it up with the fork."
"Sister, I want to eat mushrooms, but it's so hard to stick them on the fork."
Xin Sui resignedly picked up some food for the two little ones.
I can only afford to eat a bite occasionally.
Fortunately, her appetite was not as good as Xiaoming's, and she was full after eating for half an hour.
She touched the leopard's belly, which was round and plump, and then stopped giving it food.
"Baby, your belly is already so full, why are you still eating?"
"We need to know when to stop, okay? Don't be like Xiaoming, that big eater."
The leopard gave two innocent hums.
Xin Sui rubbed its belly, wondering why Xuan Tu's corruption level hadn't decreased this time, even though the leopard had eaten hot pot.
The hot pot broth was made with spring water, and it was incredibly delicious.
Does this mean that using Leopard to reduce Xuan Tu's corruption value won't work again?
While thinking to herself, Xin Sui continued to put food into the pot with her other hand.
We added broth several times during the process.
There's no other reason than that Xiaoming can eat too much.
Despite her small size, Jenny has an amazing appetite.
Moreover, you wouldn't know unless you saw her teeth, but once you did, it was quite startling.
They all have sharp, pointed teeth.
It was clearly born for hunting.
This also shows that although Jenny looks pretty and cute, she is probably a ferocious predator in the sea.
In the novel, adult merfolk are the rulers of the ocean.
We ate hot pot until midnight.
Finally, Xin Sui couldn't take it anymore.
"Xiaoming, you can eat the rest with your fork. I have to go upstairs to sleep."
Xiao Ming waved to her: "Okay, I'll come after I finish what I have left."
He has been sleeping in Xin Sui's room these days.
As Xin Sui stood up, she swayed and saw double.
No way, he's already like this after just a few cups of sake?
This body has an extremely low tolerance for alcohol.
