Qinglu tried Su Hui's method, but Yu Wanwan didn't eat the fruits, or even glance at them. He became even more anxious. He couldn't understand why she didn't want to eat them. Did she not like the fruits of the mermaid race?
What should he do? Or should he simply appear in front of her and give her the gift?
Qinglu took a step forward, then pulled his foot back.
No, the female will be angry if she knows she saw her looking sad.
He cannot afford to make females angry or dislike him.
The usually decisive Qinglu was unusually conflicted about Yu Wanwan's matter. He stood there for a long time, pondering the issue, and even after Yu Wanwan left again, he still couldn't come to a conclusion.
In the end, he could only pick up all the fruit on the ground, hold it in his hands, and walk back.
Qinglu was very saddened that the females did not accept his gifts.
No one usually comes to Qishan, but Su Hui just had to come twice in one day, and each time she ran into Qing Lu distracted by Yu Wanwan's matter.
He looked dejected; anyone with eyes could tell he was in a bad mood.
Su Hui swallowed hard, trying his best to avoid appearing in Qing Lu's sight. He moved his feet and quietly retreated.
“Su Hui.”
Su Hui froze, then turned around with a forced smile: "Um, Elder, what a coincidence..."
Qinglu asked expressionlessly, "What do you want?"
"Well, I just came to deliver something." Su Hui took out the tree bark that recorded the transaction details.
Qinglu glanced at it, then stepped into the cave: "Come in."
Su Hui: Actually, I just came to deliver something. You don't have to come in.
Inside the cave, Qinglu carefully arranged the tree bark, while Su Hui hung her head, not daring to utter a single word.
After the inspection was completed and nothing seemed wrong, she handed the bark to him, saying, "No problem."
Su Hui felt as if he had been granted a pardon and was about to run away with the tree bark, but Qing Lu stopped him: "Wait."
Su Hui: "...Elder, is there anything else?"
Qinglu rested his chin on his hand and asked the question he wanted to ask: "Tell me, what if the female doesn't eat the food you give her?"
“Hmm… If it were me, I’d just find another female who likes it. Anyway, if a female doesn’t accept it, then she doesn’t like it, right? I…” Su Hui blurted out a long string of words without thinking. Only when he was almost finished did he realize that his elder’s expression was not good. He quickly changed his words and said, “Of course, that’s me. But how could a female not like a male like you, Elder? If you give it to her a few more times, she will definitely be moved by you and then accept you.”
"Really?" Qinglu asked, somewhat incredulous.
"Really...really." Su Hui broke out in a cold sweat.
...
For the past few days, Yu Wanwan has been eating at the same place on that mountain, but strangely, there are always different dishes there each time she goes.
Once or twice could be considered a coincidence or an accident, but after it happened many times, Yu Wanwan realized that something was wrong.
Yu Wanwan looked around but didn't see anyone. She expanded the search area a little further, but it was still deserted.
There's clearly no one here, yet there are different kinds of food... This is just too weird.
This looks like a trap!
Yes, it's like those bird catchers who drop something on the ground, set up a bamboo basket, wait for the bird to go in, and then pull the rope to catch it.
Yu Wanwan felt like she was that bird, being watched by someone hiding in the shadows. If she touched these things, she would be captured and subjected to inhuman torture!
A gust of cold wind blew by, making Yu Wanwan shiver. She hugged her arms and rubbed them.
She's terrified by her own assumptions!
No, we have to escape right now!
Yu Wanwan turned her head and quickened her pace to leave.
This greatly worried Qinglu, who was observing from the shadows.
He spent the whole day restless, his mind filled with thoughts of why Yu Wanwan wouldn't accept the gifts he gave her.
After much deliberation, Qinglu decided to call Su Hui over.
When Su returned, he was still a little uneasy, thinking that he had done something bad and was being watched by the elders. But when Qinglu explained the reason, he understood that it was about that female again.
Thank goodness, I wasn't the one who committed the crime. Su Hui breathed a sigh of relief and patted her chest slightly, but soon realized that something was wrong.
The elder from our family got rejected in his pursuit of love! But what can he do? He's a single dog too!
How could he dare to be the elder's love mentor? What if the elder's plan failed? Wouldn't he become cannon fodder?
"Tell me quickly, what should I do now?"
"Um... well, this..." Su Hui hesitated for a long time, unable to come up with a coherent answer.
Seeing Qinglu's face growing darker and darker, he hurriedly said, "Elder, um, why don't you tell me the details of the things you've been delivering these past few days?"
Qinglu thought for a moment and briefly recounted the process of delivering the items.
Upon hearing this, Su Hui felt as if she had been granted a pardon, grasping at a lifeline as if she had found a lifeline. She understood the crux of the problem: "Elder, I must say, you really are something else. How can you give a female something and then just leave it on the ground without showing yourself? The female will definitely think it's garbage or poisonous, which is why she's afraid to eat it. You should have given it to her in person and explained your feelings. She definitely wouldn't have been able to refuse, and then you two..."
When she got emotional, Su Hui couldn't help but hug herself, her face showing a look of ecstasy.
Before he could finish speaking, Qinglu interrupted him: "No."
