Su Su found his medicine box and solemnly took out the third mermaid medicine from it.

When he swallowed it, he showed a rare bit of nervousness. The dizziness that followed was very familiar. It was four hours later when Su Su woke up again.

Su Su was awakened by a strong feeling of suffocation. He opened his eyes from the bottom of the water and found that he had transformed into a human body again. This time he did not feel any strong physical pain. Although he was a little hungry and weak due to the change of appearance, it was still within the tolerable range.

Did it succeed?

Su Su felt a little excited, but also worried that he was too happy too early. Perhaps the side effects were not obvious and he had not discovered them yet.

The room was quiet. Qi Hanyi was not in the room. A complete set of clothes that Su Su wore when he was in human form was neatly stacked on the bed.

Su Su had already learned how to dress himself, and did not make the same joke as last time. He buttoned his shirt one by one to the collar, imitating Qi Hanyi's style. His white trousers were soft and fitted, and the right size, perfectly outlining a pair of straight and slender legs.

Almost at the same time he put on his clothes, Qi Hanyi pushed open the door from outside.

Su Su turned around, and their eyes met.

Qi Hanyi stared at Su Su intently. The man in front of him had long hair hanging down behind him, dripping with water, and was standing barefoot on the clean floor. He was wearing a fitted white shirt and casual pants, with half of the shirt casually tucked into his pants, and the other half exposed. His belt was not fastened yet, with one end hanging loosely from his waist and the other end held by his slender fingers.

He stared at her blankly, and his eyes suddenly lit up like a candle meeting fire. The joy in his eyes was straightforward and undisguised, and coupled with his stunningly beautiful appearance, he looked like the most deadly love-sucking person.

Qi Hanyi raised his arm subconsciously, then lowered it again. His Adam's apple moved up and down restlessly, and the emotions in his eyes were like a volcano hidden under the ice and snow.

We can see each other every day, even if we exclude the time when the other person turned into a shark, it is only half a month. But the longing is entangled with desire, growing secretly in the heart.

Qi Hanyi suddenly realized that even if he saw someone, he could not satisfy this desire, and the desire in his heart became even stronger.

He wanted to hug the person in front of him, to hold him tightly in his arms, to greedily absorb his body temperature and comfort his numb heart. He wanted to put his nose on his slender neck and smell the fragrance of Su Su. He wanted to bite his soft lips and even his breath. He wanted to tear the clean shirt apart, to press every inch of his body against hers, to do something more extreme, to see his expression out of control, with blood staining his eyebrows and his face covered with an intoxicating blush, to sob uncontrollably and speak incoherent words with a hoarse voice, and to fall apart in the entanglement.

But he could only think about it, and even thinking about it seemed like blasphemy.

He and Su Su have no future. Even if there is, it will be after his body recovers and he has enough say to change the status quo of humans and mermaids.

If that day really comes.

Su Su didn't know what Qi Hanyi was thinking, so he smiled heartlessly: "How do you know I'm awake?"

"Your personal terminal is tied to mine, and you will tell me your condition." Qi Hanyi stepped forward and looked him up and down carefully. Although his voice was cold, his tone revealed some concern: "Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

Su Su blinked and said, "I don't feel anything at the moment, I'm just a little hungry."

I didn’t have dinner and slept until 9:30, so I must be hungry.

"The meal is in the restaurant," Qi Hanyi said. In order to prevent Su Su from having the same excessive appetite as last time, he specially ordered people to prepare a large and sumptuous dinner.

Su Su was about to go, but Qi Hanyi stopped him and took him to the bathroom: "Blow dry your hair first, don't catch a cold."

Su Su blew his hair dry and went downstairs to eat. There were no side effects, and Su Su only ate a normal amount of food, but he was already full and couldn't eat anymore.

After a contented burp, Su Su touched his round belly, then stood up and went back to his room.

As soon as he entered the room, Su Su found that Qi Hanyi, contrary to his usual practice, did not go to the evening training or work overtime in the study, but continued to stay in the bedroom.

He crossed his legs and leaned against the headboard, sitting in a relaxed posture, with two buttons of his shirt undone, revealing his collar and collarbone. The warm yellow bedside lamp cast a soft light on him, making him look a little warmer.

Su Su paused unexpectedly, with a look of worry in his eyes and a cautious tone: "Are you okay?"

Lost your job? Sick? It's not like your mental strength has collapsed and deteriorated. You just give up treatment and prepare to enjoy the last moments of your life, right?

The more Su Su thought about it, the more worried he became, and the anxiety in his eyes almost overflowed.

"Nothing." Realizing that Su Su had misunderstood something, Qi Hanyi said with a smile, "I just want to take a break today."

"Well, that's good." Su Su breathed a sigh of relief, and relaxed completely. His eyes moved between the occupied big bed and the clean and tidy small bed next to it.

Finally, he climbed onto the crib feeling aggrieved.

After all, it was first come first served. Qi Hanyi had given up the big bed to him before, so he couldn't just go over and grab it when someone else was sleeping on it, right? He wanted to sleep on the same bed with Qi Hanyi, but Qi Hanyi refused. Every time he went over, she would walk away, making him look like a bully who was unreasonably grabbing territory everywhere.

Qi Hanyi knew that Su Su liked to sleep in a big bed. Su Su was actually quite well-behaved when sleeping, but before falling asleep, he liked to roll around in bed without restraint.

Qi Hanyi was waiting for Su Su to make a request to him, but after waiting for a while, he found that Su Su had climbed onto the small bed and fell asleep as soon as he touched the pillow.

Qi Hanyi's eyes softened. It seemed that Su Su was really exhausted after a day of competitions and medication.

"Good night." He said silently in his heart and turned off the bedside lamp.

The bedroom fell into darkness. Qi Hanyi listened to Su Su's even breathing and closed his eyes.

When Su Su opened his eyes, it was pitch black all around him and the air around him was dry, not the familiar sea water.

Hmm, who am I? Where am I? Su Su's mind was a little blank. He only remembered that he was hunting in a shallow bay. He was lucky today and caught a few small fish, which barely filled his stomach.

But this place was different from any place he was familiar with. Dry and soft.

Was he pushed onto the beach and stranded? Su Su looked up. Where was the moon? Where were the stars? Where was that particularly large and bright star?

Why can't I smell the ocean or hear the sound of the waves?

He has been out of water for a long time. He won’t die of thirst, right?

Su Su's mind was in a mess, and he couldn't think of any useful thoughts. He turned over, but suddenly missed and fell off the bed. There was a loud "bang!"

Qi Hanyi was awakened by the sound. He turned on the light, got up to check, and saw Su Su sitting on the ground with a dazed look on his face, looking stupidly in the direction of the light.

When he came over, the dull eyes moved to him again.

"You..." Looking at Su Su's obviously abnormal appearance, Qi Hanyi had some guesses in his mind. Was he confused due to sleep? Had a nightmare? Or was it the side effects of the medicine that had not yet appeared?

Suddenly, Su Su, who was sitting on the ground, stood up.

He refused to stand properly, his legs dragging on the ground as if for display. He simply grabbed Qi Hanyi's waist with his hands and hung on him, burying his silver head in his chest, then raised his head and looked at his face eagerly.

"You are so cute!" His dull eyes lit up: "Are you human?"

Qi Hanyi froze in place: "Su Su, don't you recognize me?"

"Do I know you?" Su Su blinked his eyes: "Su Su? Is that my name? Did you give it to me? Hehe, it sounds nice."

He couldn't even remember his own name. Qi Hanyi was almost certain that Su Su's symptoms were the side effects of the medication, and this time the side effects were roughly related to memory and thinking.

It is not clear why the attack did not occur immediately but occurred some time after falling asleep.

"hiss--"

A slight pain and itching in the neck interrupted Qi Hanyi's thoughts.

Qi Hanyi lowered his eyes and could only see Su Su's silver head, but he could feel the other person's teeth stuck on the side of his neck, breathing hotly.

"What?" Qi Hanyi's tone was heavy, as if he was simmering with anger. He put his hands on Su Su's shoulders, trying to push him away, but was afraid that he would lose his balance and fall, so he didn't dare to let go.

Su Su hooked his hands around Qi Hanyi's neck, swallowed his saliva, and whispered in defense: "I don't eat people, I just want to take a bite, just a small bite."

He remembered that he had eaten enough today. Even if he hadn't, humans were not on his hunting menu. But the human in front of him was very cute, with a cold white skin, and the light blue veins on his neck were faintly visible through a thin layer of muscle.

Cute, I want to bite it. Su Su just felt his teeth itching and couldn't control himself and bit it.

"..." Qi Hanyi knew that Su Su had no ill intentions. When he bit her just now, he didn't use any force at all. The action was more like rubbing her skin with the tip of her teeth. It was more like flirting than an attack.

Qi Hanyi lowered his eyes and looked at the young man in front of him. His silver hair was disheveled and he had changed out of his previous shirt. He was now wearing a white velvet pullover pajamas, which revealed a small piece of his collarbone at the neckline. The hem covered his legs, revealing the edge of his black trousers and two straight long legs.

His eyes were pure and ignorant, and he had no idea how alluring he looked.

What was churning in my heart was not only worry about Su Su's situation, but also a sense of inexplicable joy.

It was as if a dangerous voice was saying that he provoked you first, even if you...

"No." Qi Hanyi put aside the dangerous thought without hesitation. He carried Su Su to the big bed and tied him tightly with a quilt: "You should go to sleep. We can talk about other things after you wake up."

The side effects of Su Su's medication only occurred after he fell asleep. Maybe it has something to do with time, or maybe it has something to do with sleep. In the best case, Su Su will be able to return to normal when he wakes up tomorrow. If not, he will think of other ways.

Thinking of this, Qi Hanyi paused. He remembered that there was another preliminary match tomorrow. If Su Su was still in this state tomorrow, would he be able to participate in the competition? Qi Hanyi could sense Su Su's expectations for this match, and also saw Su Su's efforts in the first two rounds.

Su Su originally planned to take the medicine after the preliminary round, but he took it a day earlier so that he could accompany me to the banquet tomorrow. If he missed the last preliminary round because of this, he would be very sad.

Qi Hanyi's brows were deeply furrowed, and his romantic thoughts mostly disappeared.

Postponing the match? The date has been set long ago, and postponing it now would be unfair to other players.

But...if Su Su is still not awake tomorrow, he probably won't care about the fairness of others.

Qi Hanyi opened his communication and prepared to contact Jian Cheng to prepare a plan to postpone the game in advance, and then inform the game officials early tomorrow morning.

But as soon as his hand left the quilt, the man who had been quiet for less than two minutes started to struggle out of bed again: "I can't sleep here! I'll turn into a dried fish."

While shouting in panic, Su Su rushed to the nearby pool and dived into it.

Gulp, gulp.

Humans cannot breathe with gills like fish, so Su Su gulped several times as soon as he entered the water. He fluttered around in the water and almost became the first mermaid to drown himself in the water.

Qi Hanyi had no choice but to jump into the pool as well, hold the person in his arms, and pull him to shore.

"Cough, cough, cough!" Su Su spat out saliva and coughed violently, and his clothes were soaked.

Qi Hanyi was not much better, not only did his clothes get soaked, but he also had some unexpected reactions. He didn't care about himself, so he helped Su Su calm down first, then took him to the bathroom to dry himself and put on clean clothes.

During this whole process, Qi Hanyi remained silent like a monk who had severed all worldly ties. Only his red ears and tightly pursed thin lips revealed that he was not at peace at the moment.

After another round of tossing and turning, Su Su changed into cool new clothes, but Qi Hanyi was still soaked. But he didn't even dare to let go of her hand, for fear that she would jump into the pool again the moment he let go.

Helplessly, Qi Hanyi put the man on the bed, pulled off the tie on his shirt, grabbed Su Su's two restless hands and tied them to the head of the bed.

Su Su foolishly let him tie him up without struggling at all, as if he trusted the person in front of him with all his heart and believed that the other party would never hurt him.

Qi Hanyi's heart softened, and he reached out and rubbed Su Su's head twice, his tone was rarely gentle: "Be good, I'll untie you after I change my clothes, okay?"

"Yeah!" Su Su nodded with a silly smile.

Qi Hanyi took his clothes to the bathroom to change, but halfway through he heard a fierce struggle outside.

He ran out of the bathroom without buttoning his shirt, only to see Su Su half rolled under the bed, struggling with his hands, his tie was pulled out of shape and stretched into a thin strip. His white and tender wrists were almost bleeding.

"What are you doing?" Qi Hanyi stepped forward and grabbed Su Su.

Su Su raised his head, his eyes were red, tears were streaming down his cheeks, he was actually crying. He sobbed in fear, "I'm caught in a fishing net, I have to escape quickly. They! They're coming soon! They'll catch me, cut off my dorsal fin, and sell me to the market, cutting me into pieces and selling them by the pound!"
