Princess Kongque looked strange, as if she was somewhat superfluous here.
The relationship between these two seems to be quite unusual.
The most beautiful woman of the sea tribe has actually found someone she loves?
You should know that even the Demon Emperor was ruthlessly rejected when he pursued her back then.
She couldn't help but take another look at Zu'an. Well, he was quite ordinary-looking, except for his very bright and captivating eyes.
Thinking of his domineering speech in the main hall just now, which intimidated all the powerful members of the sea race and prevented them from making a move, he was indeed domineering and charismatic.
No wonder the mermaid queen liked him; only an unparalleled powerhouse is worthy of someone as beautiful as her.
But when did such a powerful figure appear in the world?
I've never heard of this before.
At this moment, Zuan felt the mermaid queen's burning gaze and was momentarily moved. The mermaid queen was truly beautiful, and no man could remain unmoved when she looked at him like that.
Unfortunately, the thought that the two of them belonged to different time periods made him sigh inwardly and compose himself: "Your Majesty is joking. You are so beautiful that if you just gave the word, the people willing to marry you could be sent from the Dragon Palace to the shores of the Western Sea."
The other person was clearly praising her beauty, but the mermaid queen was not happy at all.
However, knowing that the other party was avoiding her question, she did not press further: "Sigh, there's no sincerity at all."
Kong Nanwu blinked, wondering what was going on.
It seems the mermaid queen took the initiative, but the other party appears to be avoiding her?
Oh my god, am I still not fully awake?
Is there really a man in the world who can resist the mermaid queen?
Cherry pouted beside her, thinking to herself, "Queen, if you keep acting like this, I won't like you anymore."
In all her years, when has the Queen ever suffered such injustice?
And Queen, really, have you forgotten the person in your dream?
Sensing the strange atmosphere, Zuan hurriedly said, "You have tarnished the Queen's reputation today, but I will definitely clear your name in a couple of days."
"No need, it's not a big deal. I don't care what others think," the Mermaid Queen regained her usual elegance and composure, clearly not wanting to continue the topic, and took the initiative to say, "By the way, I just heard what the princess said, it seems there is a traitor in the North Sea. Otherwise, how could she know the whereabouts of the North Sea Crown Prince so accurately?"
“That’s right. If demons want to cause trouble among the sea tribes, wouldn’t they bribe and instigate some traitors?” Zuan also realized this problem. “Moreover, the traitors’ positions are probably not low.”
Otherwise, it would be impossible to so accurately track the whereabouts of the Prince of Beihai.
"I will investigate this matter. There shouldn't be too many people who can track down the Prince of Beihai." The Mermaid Queen already had a general plan in mind. She took out a few conch shells, whispered to them, and made the arrangements.
Princess Peacock then took the opportunity to thank Zu An: "By the way, Qingwu hasn't had a chance to ask your name yet? The Peacock Clan will always remember your kindness."
Although Zaun already knew her name from the anger value system, he couldn't help but sigh when he heard her self-introduction. Not only did they look alike, but their names were also so similar.
You can call me Eddie Peng.
"Eddie Peng? What a strange name." Princess Peacock murmured to herself, as if she wanted to memorize the name completely.
The mermaid queen, who had been listening intently, couldn't help but chuckle. She had actually been quite nervous, wanting to know the other person's true identity but also afraid of hearing it.
After all, he wouldn't tell her even when she asked him so many times, but if he just told her when the little peacock asked so casually, she would really break down.
Princess Peacock turned to look at her in confusion, not understanding why she was smiling.
The Mermaid Queen thought she couldn't be upset by herself, so she simply said, "It's fake. His name is fake, and his appearance is fake too. Don't bother remembering it so seriously."
"Huh?" Princess Peacock never expected this and looked at Zu An in surprise.
Seeing his headache-ridden expression, he immediately realized that the Mermaid Queen had not lied.
She hurriedly whispered to the mermaid queen about the other party's identity, and whether there was some grudge between them and the peacock clan, which was why they could not show their true form.
The Mermaid Queen scoffed, "How would I know what he's thinking?"
Princess Peacock was truly stunned. Judging from her tone, it seemed that even the Queen did not know the other party's real name or appearance.
How is that possible?
Seeing how closely the two had worked together, even at the risk of her reputation, it was obvious to everyone that they were a couple.
Even if they're not a couple, they're still in the ambiguous, tug-of-war stage. How could they not even know each other's names or what they look like?
"Don't look at it that way, I really don't know." The mermaid queen's tone was also quite resentful.
Sensing the intense resentment, Zuan had no choice but to speak up: "I hope the Queen will forgive me. It was not that I intended to deceive you, but I come from another world, not the same timeline as you. I was worried that getting too involved would affect your world's timeline, so please forgive me."
After talking with Mi Li yesterday, he now has a general idea of where the rules and boundaries are, and he is no longer as secretive as before.
Now that the mermaid queen is treating him with sincerity, he feels he shouldn't keep nothing from her.
Cherry blinked, thinking to herself that she hadn't listened to the Queen's advice to read more, and now she must regret it.
I understand every single word my husband says, but why can't I understand what they mean when put together?
Kong Nanwu was equally stunned. She had only heard of another world, but what was another time and space?
