The prince quickly walked to the study in the side hall, paused, and looked back at the serious-looking captain of the guards. "Wait outside. You are not allowed to come in without my permission."
The captain of the guards nodded and stood aside.
The prince then walked into the hall with satisfaction, went straight to the bookcase in the right corner, reached out to hold the flower pot in the corner, and turned it twice.
Then, the bookcase in front of him slowly moved, revealing a dark room.
He picked up the crystal chandelier next to him and walked in.
The silent and dark narrow corridor gradually became brighter and filled with footsteps.
Not long after, he turned a corner and the narrow corridor suddenly opened up, with flickering candlelight.
When I walked in, I saw a small bedroom with a desk in the corner.
There was a blond man sleeping soundly on the table.
As if disturbed by the sudden sound of footsteps, he opened his eyes and caught a glimpse of a pair of polished leather boots. All his sleepiness was gone immediately. He sat up straight, stretched, stood up, and looked at the man in front of him who looked exactly like him. He was a little excited, "Can I go out now?"
The other party pursed his lips, his expression complicated, "Not yet."
Antor instantly lost his temper and sat back down. "Then what are you doing here?"
Perhaps thinking of something terrifying, he showed fear and shifted his position cautiously. "You're not planning to kill me and replace me completely, are you? Didn't we agree that you would only replace me for one month? You must keep your promise and not break it at will."
The man in front of him who had turned into himself was actually a person with blue hair and blue eyes, and looked very similar to the blue mermaid who was hostile to him on the island before.
He had some suspicion that this man was the blue mermaid's brother.
I really don’t know what’s wrong with me. Why did I offend these two siblings?
"Hehe... I did want to kill you before, but now, I have no reason." As he said this, the man smiled sweetly, emitting a gentle aura.
Antor looked at it and looked puzzled, as if he had seen a ghost. "If that's the case, then what do you want to do here?"
"It's nothing. I just want to tell you something. The little mermaid you've been thinking about doesn't like you at all. The person he likes is me." The man raised his chin with a proud look on his face and a tone full of boasting.
“…”What the hell?
Antor was confused. Wait, a little mermaid?
"The little mermaid you're talking about is the silver mermaid that was with your sister?"
The man, who was originally in high spirits, frowned when he heard the word "sister" and gritted his teeth, "How can you tell that I'm a female?!"
Thinking of Yinxi's words just now, he felt a little annoyed. They had been together for so long, but he didn't even know that he hadn't transformed. He actually always thought that he was a female!
That's nothing, but...but if he likes females, what's the point of me working so hard to transform into a male?!
Upon hearing this, Antor's eyes widened in disbelief. "You, you are the blue mermaid?! No way, isn't she a girl? How did she change..."
Her eyes met the man's gloomy gaze, and the rest of the words were stuck in her throat.
Antor swallowed and suddenly realized. No wonder this man sneaked into the palace with such a fierce momentum and locked him up. The look in his eyes seemed as if he wanted to kill him.
It turns out that he is the blue mermaid from before. Judging from what he just said, he even regards himself as a love rival.
Antor's face was filled with injustice, and he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Mr. Mermaid, it's not my fault that I mistook your gender. It's mainly because you were really... too pretty and petite before. Besides, I think you must have misunderstood something. I don't like that little mermaid. I'm just grateful to him and consider him a friend."
Lan Yin, who had the appearance of Antor, narrowed his eyes and looked at him coldly, feeling a little irritated.
Is this why Yinxi considers herself a female?
Retracting his thoughts, Lan Yin snorted coldly, "Even if you like it, it's useless. The person Yinxi likes is me."
Antor: "..." I know, I know. There's no need to come all the way to tell me this.
He twitched his lips, speechless for a moment, and then asked, "So, could you please stop being so rude to me? I'm a prince after all, and I still need to maintain my dignity."
"Hehe, I'm a prince too," Lan Yin raised his eyebrows in disdain.
Antor didn't expect his status to be so high, and was a little surprised, "You mermaids also have a royal family?"
"Of course." Lan Yin realized that she had told him too much and frowned slightly. "Anyway, I need to borrow your identity for a while. Don't worry, I will bring you what you want every day."
During this time, he must find out whether Yinxi prefers females or males, and by the way, take him to try all the delicious food in the palace.
