Yu Wanwan's eyes widened slightly, puzzled. "Why?"
Yueyang found a seat and began to complain: "You have no idea how serious our elder is. His eyes and tone are terrifying. More importantly, he is in charge of the clan's rules. If anyone makes even the slightest mistake, the elder will catch them and punish them severely. All of us in the dragon clan feel afraid if we get even a little bit close to him."
You should know that when he was asked by the elder to be assigned the task of delivering food to the females, he was so nervous and scared that he couldn't sleep all night. He thought he had done something wrong and had been caught by the elder.
Yu Wanwan thought back on this elder of the dragon clan and felt that his temperament was quite serious and upright. After hearing Yueyang's description, she felt that he was just like a headmaster who would hit a disobedient student with a ruler at any time.
But why would all the dragons be afraid of him? That's an exaggeration, especially considering the ocean distance.
Yu Wanwan squeezed the fruit in her hand and suddenly felt that the fruit was familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere before.
She thought about it carefully, and then a flash of inspiration struck her.
Yes, she had been going to that place to eat for the past few days, but after the food was served there several times, she stopped going.
This fruit seems to have appeared in that place before, but I hadn't looked at it carefully before, no wonder I couldn't remember it just now.
What's going on? So the owner of the fruit is a member of the dragon race?
Yu Wanwan couldn't understand, and Yueyang urged, "Why aren't you eating? Mermaid fruits are delicious."
“I…” Yu Wanwan hesitated for a moment.
Actually, she had eaten a bit too much for dinner and really couldn't eat anymore, so she wanted to wait until tomorrow to eat.
But halfway through his sentence, he saw several females eyeing the fruit in his hand with predatory intent, looking like they were about to rush up and snatch it away.
"That's right. If she doesn't eat it now in front of the ocean, this fruit will definitely be snatched away before tomorrow," Yu Wanwan suddenly became stubborn.
She wasn't going to give away the cheap food to these bullying females; she'd eat it even if it meant she'd burst.
"I'll eat it now." Yu Wanwan took a bite of the fruit with a crunch.
This fruit tastes quite different from other fruits. It has a slightly salty taste upon first bite, followed by an endless sweet and sour flavor. It is juicy and very refreshing.
It tastes really good, and it's a fruit I've never eaten before, no wonder the females like it.
"It's really quite delicious," Yu Wanwan said with a smile.
From the moment she took her first bite of the fruit, the gazes of the females fixed on her changed, as if they were staring at an intruder trying to steal food. Not to be outdone, Yu Wanwan glared back at them as well.
Yueyang noticed her expression, glanced back, and saw the females' ill-intentioned looks. He couldn't help but ask, "Wanwan, what's wrong with you all?"
Yu Wanwan shrugged: "I don't know either, it's just like that."
She took another bite of fruit, making a crunching sound as if venting her dissatisfaction.
Yueyang glanced at the females again, then at the petite Yu Wanwan, and quickly began to guess.
Females are very jealous. They admire the strong and hate anything that threatens them. Yu Wanwan is beautiful but physically weak, completely unable to protect herself. Could she have been bullied?
I'm a little worried about going overseas.
She was still here, and they didn't dare come up to her, so they could only glare at her. What if Yu Wanwan was bullied if she left?
Although Yu Wanwan is from another tribe, protecting females is the duty of males, and they are also good friends. Yu Wanwan is a rare female with a good personality. If he didn't know, he could have let it go, but now that he knows, how can he just ignore it?
Thinking of this, Yueyang suddenly felt a surge of responsibility and suggested, "Wanwan, how about... you sleep somewhere else?"
"Change locations?"
“It’s about changing places.” Yueyang nodded. “I feel it’s not good for you to stay here. The elders are in charge of the females’ affairs now, including their accommodations. Why don’t you go to him and ask him to change your place?”
Upon hearing that she could move to a different place, Yu Wanwan's eyes lit up instantly.
So that's how it can be done! I was worried about what to do next.
"Then please speak to my elder for me."
“Um… this.” Yueyang hesitated for a moment, then politely declined, “You should go find it yourself. I can send you there.”
Yu Wanwan immediately understood and couldn't help but laugh at him: "Are you that afraid of your elders?"
Suddenly, Yueyang let out a shy "Oh dear," feeling very embarrassed: "It's not like I'm the only one who's scared, everyone's scared. Are you coming or not? If you're not, I'm leaving."
"Let's go, let's go." Yu Wanwan quickly got up from the bed and followed Yueyang out of the cave.
This was the first time Yu Wanwan had seen the beast form of Yueyang. It was a small white dragon, and perhaps because it was young, it was smaller than Su Huilai, so it wasn't too difficult for Yu Wanwan to climb up.
Qinglu lived in Qishan Grottoes, where he was the only person on the entire mountain.
When Yu Wanwan was on Yueyang's back, she felt that the road to Qishan looked familiar. Before she could remember, Yueyang had already put her down.
"If you walk a little further ahead, you'll reach the elder's cave. I have some things to attend to, so I'll be going now."
After delivering the fish to Wanwan across the ocean and giving her instructions, he ran away without looking back.
