After Xiang Chen left, only Su Su and Qi Hanyi were left in the room.

Su Su's mood was interrupted, and he finally calmed down from the fact that Qi Hanyi woke up. But thinking back to the tension just now, he still felt a little nervous, and he continued to talk about what happened today incoherently.

"Do you know how scary it is!" Su Su slapped Qi Hanyi on the chest and sat up straight. "When I came to the room, you were lying there and I couldn't wake you up. Your grandfather asked me to sing for you, but I can't sing, so I had to go online for help. A kind girl told me that mermaids can't differentiate, so singing can't save you. She said you're having a mental breakdown and it's going to kill you."

Qi Hanyi quickly and slowly sorted out what had happened according to Su Su's words. His head still hurt badly, and his usually sharp mind seemed to be rusted and a little dull.

He thought that after his troops fainted, someone must have informed his grandfather, so his grandfather found out that he did not follow his request and let the mermaid treat him. However, he probably has not yet discovered that Su Su is not a differentiated mermaid, and just thinks that he refuses to cooperate with the treatment, so he forced Su Su to come to the room and sing to him while he was asleep, hoping to use this method to treat and wake him up.

Su Su was still mumbling. He was riding on Qi Hanyi, gesturing dishonestly in the air with his hands, and his body swaying slightly with the movements: "Then your body suddenly started to get colder and colder, and your face looked strange. I asked the girl again, and she said that your body was affected by mental power. You must wake up quickly, otherwise you will die."

He was only wearing his undershirt, which looked a little messy due to the tossing and turning just now. The clothes at his waist were rolled up, revealing a small section of his beautiful waistline, which was decorated with some thin silver scales. It didn't look strange, but rather eerily made people want to touch it.

Qi Hanyi only took a glance and turned away as if he was scalded.

Su Su was completely unaware: "I tried many ways to wake you up but couldn't. Then you just stopped breathing, I was really scared, I thought you were going to die soon, luckily I tried the artificial respiration that girl taught me, and this time you finally woke up."

Artificial...respiration? Qi Hanyi recalled the soft touch on his lips just now, and the little tongue that always came over dishonestly, and he was hesitant to speak.

That behavior cannot be called artificial respiration.

But he did save himself. If it weren't for the obvious feeling of Su Su coming up to him, which broke the dream apart, he didn't know whether he would have suffocated to death in the dream.

I even turned a blind eye to his kindness by kissing him for a long time. Thinking about it this way, it seems that I was more excessive.

"Thank you for your hard work." Qi Hanyi said, his voice still hoarse and his speech slower than usual.

"Well, you should thank me for this." Su Su nodded modestly. Listening to Qi Hanyi's thanks, he felt a sense of relief. Sharks had no concept of helping each other, but for the first time, Su Su found that saving people was a very happy thing.

Oh, it can’t be said to be the first time, this was the second time he saved Qi Hanyi. The first time was when he pulled him out of the sea.

Qi Hanyi is such a powerful person, but he was saved twice.

Thinking of this, Su Su became even more proud. The fish's tail, which had not yet grown out, almost soared into the sky.

Who should he thank?

This was the first time Qi Hanyi heard such an answer, and coupled with Su Su's matter-of-fact expression, it was both funny and cute.

The corners of his mouth rose unconsciously, and Qi Hanyi didn't know how gentle his eyes were when he looked at Su Su at this moment.

"Well, you look really good like this." Su Su noticed the change in Qi Hanyi. It was the first time he saw Qi Hanyi smiling so warmly, like the sunlight penetrating the sea surface, shining on the crystal white sand on the bottom of the sea, reflecting the ripples.

The handsome young man approached Qi Hanyi greedily, so close that they could exchange each other's breath. He suddenly felt a little dry in the mouth, and a desire surged for no reason, not an appetite, but a more obscure and unfamiliar desire.

He didn't know what to do. The scene of the kiss between them just now flashed through his mind, and he could still remember the tingling feeling.

Is it going to be like that?

The moment their lips touched, Qi Hanyi came back to his senses. As the headache gradually subsided, his chaotic consciousness gradually became clear. He realized belatedly that the posture they were in was inappropriate. Thinking of Xiang Chenrao's meaningful look just now, Qi Hanyi looked a little helpless: "What are you doing?"

"I want to bite you." Su Su licked his lips and said sincerely, "Don't use too much force, just like before, okay?"

"Not now," Qi Hanyi turned his face away. His face was still pale, but his ears were red. "You come down first."

"Oh." Su Su climbed down from Qi Hanyi with a righteous look on his face, as if the person who had just been asking for a kiss like a hooligan was not him.

"Put on your clothes." Qi Hanyi sat up and picked up Su Su's coat that had been thrown aside. He glanced at the scales on his body again and paused, realizing that the effect of the medicine Su Su had taken this time was probably about to wear off.

After Su Su had tidied his clothes, Qi Hanyi also dressed neatly. When he opened the door, except that his face was still a little pale, he had basically returned to his usual state.

Xiang Chen stood at the door and saw Qi Hanyi coming out. He put on an exaggerated expression of surprise and looked at Qi Hanyi: "So fast?"

Qi Hanyi ignored him. With a little imagination, he knew that nothing could have happened between the two of them in the room just now. Even if Xiang Chen had misunderstood it at first, he should have realized it by now. It was obvious that she was playing a fool and making fun of him.

He looked at Uncle Zhang, the butler, who was waiting by the side, and asked, "Where is the master of the house?"

Uncle Zhang: "In the study. I have already informed you after you woke up."

There were hurried footsteps in the corridor. While they were talking, Qi Xingli had already rushed over with his men. He walked hurriedly with a tense expression, and only when he saw Qi Hanyi standing in front of him did he visibly breathe a sigh of relief.

"Master." Qi Hanyi called out.

Qi Xingli glared at Qi Hanyi with a cold face: "Don't call me the head of the family."

Qi Hanyi lowered his head, a trace of guilt in his eyes: "I made you worry."

Qi Xingli pointed at Qi Hanyi and was furious: "Why should I worry? You are not the only one who can be the heir of the Qi family!"

Qi Hanyi pursed his lips. He knew that grandpa was really angry and scared, which was why he shed his usual stern and cold appearance and said such words like a child in anger.

But when it comes to using mermaids to treat diseases, they have different opinions. He will not compromise with his grandfather and can only fool around for now.

"I'm fine. I won't die here. I promised you that I would take over the Qi family's responsibility from you, protect the empire, and not bring disgrace to the family's honor."

"You remember what you said the most!" Qi Xingli stared at Qi Hanyi like a hawk: "You obviously have a differentiated mermaid at home, but you chose to hide in the military camp. When the symptoms broke out, I thought you were deliberately trying to piss me off to death."

Xiang Chen noticed the tense atmosphere and took a step forward: "Master Qi, it must be Qi Hanyi's fault for not treating the patient properly. However, the patient has just recovered and his body still needs to be recuperated. How about you train him another day? Let me give him a full body check first."

Qi Xingli's expression improved a little, "Who has time to scold him? He's awake now, and I should go back. His Majesty has summoned me to the palace to discuss matters, so I don't have that much time to watch over him."

"Oh, okay. Take care, Grandpa." Xiang Chen immediately cooperated.

Qi Xingli took two steps forward, but turned back. He glared at Qi Hanyi, who was standing with his back raised but bowing his head without saying a word. He then looked at Su Su, who was looking around behind him. Finally, his eyes fell on Su Su: "Your name is Yi Qing?"

"Ah?" Su Su was stunned for a moment and nodded: "Ah!"

Qi Xingli's tone was cold and hard, as if he was doing me a favor: "I'm so sorry for what happened this time. If you want any reward, you can tell me."

"Reward?" Su Su thought about it. He didn't lack anything now. He had food, drinks, and fun. He didn't want anything from Qi Xingli. He just wanted him to leave quickly so that he could go back and play games.

So he said, "Then please stop scolding Qi Hanyi. He definitely didn't want to get sick."

As soon as these words were spoken, people in the corridor had different expressions.

Qi Xingli was stunned for a long while, and then his eyes showed some emotion as if he recalled something from the past. He looked at Su Su seriously as if he was meeting her for the first time, instead of just treating her as a tool mermaid.

Qi Hanyi was more surprised. He didn't expect that when he left like that last time, Su Su was not only willing to save him, but also to intercede for him. This silly fish probably didn't know how valuable a favor from Qi Xingli was.

Xiang Chen's eyes were much more ambiguous. He thought that he was right. Even if these two people didn't take the final step, they must have some feelings for each other. Especially this kind of mermaid, who was so worried about Qi Hanyi's comfort before, and now pleaded for him, he must like Qi Hanyi.

Tsk, how could Qi Hanyi, that ice block, deserve such a beautiful and innocent mermaid.

Qi Xingli: "Then Qi Hanyi will be handed over to your care from now on. From today on, you will live in Qi Hanyi's room and sing for him every day until he fully recovers."

This was exactly what Su Su thought. He knew that Qi Hanyi's health was not well at all and he might faint and be in danger at any time. If he stayed by his side, it would be easier to save him.

Su Su raised his chin and said, "Qi Hanyi was the one I rescued. Even if you didn't tell me, I would still be optimistic about him. Otherwise, it would have been in vain."

These words were not very respectful, but to Qi Xingli's ears, they sounded more reassuring than some earnest assurances.

Qi Xingli nodded with satisfaction, and at the same time vaguely understood why Qi Hanyi was willing to keep this mermaid. He had a beautiful face like Qi Hanyi's mother, but they were different. This mermaid was simple, straightforward, and enthusiastic. More importantly, he treated Qi Hanyi sincerely.

Qi Xingli's eyes showed a satisfied look, and his tone softened for a rare time: "You are a good child. I was wrong before, and my attitude towards you was too harsh. As long as you can help me take care of Qi Hanyi, the Qi family will definitely not treat you unfairly in the future. So, I will open a special communication channel for you. If Qi Hanyi is disobedient or bullies you in the future, you can tell me directly. The previous request is invalid, but my promise is still valid to you. If you need any help in the future, you can also tell me through communication."

After a few operations on his terminal, Su Su received a reminder that a special contact had appeared at the bottom of his interface. There was no name or avatar, and the number could not be seen, but he could communicate directly.

Qi Hanyi looked at Qi Xingli in surprise. It was the first time he saw his grandfather being so gentle towards a mermaid. He knew that Su Su had a likable personality, but he didn't expect that even Qi Xingli could be moved.

But what surprised Qi Hanyi even more was Su Su's affection for him. He didn't know how to respond, so he could only take better care of him.

Qi Xingli led his men away.

Qi Hanyi walked him to the door.

Xiang Chen watched Qi Xingli board the shuttle bus, secretly gave Qi Hanyi a thumbs up, and whispered in his ear: "Your family is amazing to be able to make the old man happy."

Su Su followed behind and shook his ears. He had a very sharp hearing and heard Xiang Chen's self-righteous whispers clearly: "I'm not trying to make anyone happy. I just said what I wanted to say."

"Cough, cough, cough!" Xiang Chen let out a shocking cough.

Qi Hanyi watched him acting with cold eyes.

The kind housekeeper Uncle Zhang asked with concern: "Doctor Xiang, are you feeling unwell?"

Xiang Chen waved his hands and covered his chest pretentiously: "I just choked on the dog food."
