Chapter 239 Yo~The Mermaid Prince Married a Concubine (Sixteen)
The water-filled fish fin brushed gently against the side of his face, and Yu Huo felt as if all the hairs on his body were standing up.
It wasn't that he was afraid, it was just that it happened so suddenly that he didn't react.
Snap——
The strong light filled his eyes, and Yu Huo frowned uncomfortably, and his vision was temporarily blinded.
At this moment, his chin was suddenly pinched by a hand and lifted up.
"Oh, I caught you."
Yu Huo blinked. The mermaid in front of him was staring at his face, and the corners of her mouth that were raised slowly straightened during the confrontation.
That look...seemed to be devoid of warmth.
Yu Huo cleared his throat and said calmly, "Aren't you going to be back in three hours?"
Hearing this, Jiang Feng glanced at the shelf beside them and raised his eyebrows in surprise, as if he was surprised by the young man's focus.
But he still answered patiently: "This is your first time contacting me, so I can't keep you waiting for too long. But I didn't expect..."
Jiang Feng paused, chuckled, and leaned over again to whisper in the young man's ear: "I didn't expect that you not only drank, but also sneaked in here. You came in without knowing what was in the room... but that's a foul."
The mermaid seemed to be deliberately creating a sense of oppression for him, and the gloomy tone made his extraordinary and beautiful face look a little creepy.
Suspicious, fickle, and moody.
Yu Huo nervously opened his clenched fist, intending to deny the fictitious "foul." He touched the veil behind him and asked, "What is this?"
The mermaid glanced at it and said, "Jiao Xiao."
"Jiao...Xiao?" Yu Huo raised his eyebrows and had the answer in his mind.
Jiang Feng noticed the change in his expression, and calmly raised his hands to support the wall, blocking his only exit.
Yu Huo was stunned: "What?"
The mermaid in front of him leaned forward lightly, and the halo of the incandescent lamp was easily blocked by his tall figure, making his flawless facial features hidden in the shadows, making him unpredictable.
"Did you guess it?"
Yu Huo played dumb: "What?"
Jiang Feng used his fingertips to fiddle with his soft earlobe and taunted him, "Don't pretend. You look smart. Playing dumb is too much of a test for your acting skills."
"......" Yu Huo smiled and retorted with the other party's words: "I don't understand what you are talking about."
Jiang Feng shrugged: "Then let me translate it for you?"
"Need not..."
"I do have mermaid blood in me."
Jiang Feng turned a deaf ear to the young man's refusal and continued in the dazed look in his eyes, "My mother is from a branch of the Luke family. That faint trace of merman blood was activated in me... and I experienced atavism."
Yu Huo was stunned for a moment, but quickly came to his senses.
You've heard it all, so just listen to it and understand it.
He sighed helplessly and asked, "So you are a mermaid?"
Jiang Feng tilted his head, his expression slightly innocent: "I guess so."
"What about these shark silks...?" Yu Huo pointed to the thin and gorgeous satin behind him, which still shone with charming colors even in the backlight.
But no matter how beautiful she was, Yu Huo didn't want to touch her again.
"I did it." Jiang Feng acted very frankly at this time, which made Yu Huo feel that the other party wanted him to die, but would let him be a conscious ghost before he died.
Yu Huo: "How did you make it? What did you use?"
Jiang Feng was silent for a moment, and his raised fish tail suddenly pressed against the inside of his calf, rubbing it ambiguously.
"I use my shed fish scales... and human skin, boil them into glue, and then dry them until they are half dry to weave them."
Yu Huo was distracted by his rubbing, and cursed him in his heart, calling him a monster. He said absentmindedly, "You still have this skill?"
The young man's reaction was always unexpected, and Jiang Feng seemed to have gotten used to it, so he couldn't help laughing.
After a few seconds, he suddenly reached out and pulled down a piece of shark silk hanging on the wall and handed it to him: "Can I give it to you?"
Yu Huo didn't understand why and asked curiously, "Why did you give it to me?"
"It will look great on you."
Yu Huo glanced at the transparent shark silk, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
"What's the difference between wearing this thing... and not wearing it?"
"There's a huge difference." Jiang Feng smiled with some ill intention, and even stretched out the shark silk to measure him without permission.
The young man has handsome eyebrows and eyes, red lips and white teeth, and his handsomeness is mixed with a hint of youthfulness.
But if she puts on this sky-blue shark silk... she will look much more lewd, as if she is forcing a good woman into prostitution?
Jiang Feng's eyes were filled with joy, and just thinking about it made his blood boil and he became extremely excited.
"Do you want to try it?" he urged.
But Yu Huo frowned and avoided Jiao Xiao who was about to touch him, with disdain in his eyes: "No need."
Jiang Feng's hand, suspended in the air, faltered slightly, and a trace of sadness flashed in the beautiful Ruifeng's eyes: "You don't like it?"
"dislike."
"Why?"
The mermaid's expression looked like it was about to break at this moment.
This feeling is as disappointing as if the other party presents what he thinks is the best treasure to please his sweetheart, but the other party treats it like a worn-out shoe.
Yu Huo raised his hand and pushed the mermaid's arm away, saying calmly, "Because it's stained with our own blood."
Jiang Feng fell silent, neither speaking nor moving, still standing in front of him, refusing to let him go.
Yu Huo thought for a moment, his eyes sweeping across the glass bottles on the shelf, and he asked softly, "How many people have you killed?"
The mermaid's neck moved stiffly, and his bangs, which had not been trimmed for a long time, slid down, covering his eyes that were gradually turning cold.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Yu Huo raised his voice and reiterated: "How many people did you kill?"
Jiang Feng sneered: "Seven or eight..."
He looked like he was angry, but he was suppressing his anger and passively cooperating with the other party.
Yu Huo pretended not to see it and said aggressively, "Speak clearly, seven or eight?"
Jiang Feng was silent for a few seconds again, then he gave up and replied coldly, "Nine!"
"So I'm the tenth?"
Jiang Feng opened his eyelids in surprise. At this moment, the mermaid lost his fighting spirit. The rising guilt in his heart made him have no place to vent his anger. He held it back again, as if he was thinking of an excuse.
Yu Huo saw his dilemma and instead of retreating, he said, "Tell the truth."
For a moment, the man and the fish were so close that they seemed to be about to kiss. Unfortunately, the ambiguity was gone, and instead there was tension, ready to explode.
Jiang Feng's unique frosty white eyelashes blinked quickly, and his thin red lips were pursed tightly.
He nodded helplessly, then quickly opened his mouth to try to explain, "I really didn't have any good ideas about you at first. You know, the Luke family is notoriously bad-tempered because of the merman bloodline.
As a mermaid who has regressed to her ancestral home, I am the same.
I need to vent, but as a mermaid in the royal family, I cannot be as unscrupulous as the Luke family. For the sake of the royal family's reputation, I must be restrained, elegant, and approachable.
As for these negative emotions, I can only vent them secretly in private.
You know what? I can’t help it…”
