"Hahahahahahaha!" The Mermaid King laughed heartily. He hadn't expected Mu Huan to say that. Everyone can say nice things, but being able to say them just right and without making people feel disgusted still requires some skill.
For Mu Huan, if he praises people more, it will be easy for him to say nice things to them.
"The girls must be tired after all this journey!" The Mermaid King called his attendants and said, "Take the two girls to a room to rest, and find some smart people to take care of them!"
Mu Huan wanted to say no, but when she thought about the Mermaid King, she immediately shut up. Every person in a high position doesn't like others to resist him, so she should be honest.
So, Mu Huan and Tan Tai Luo followed the servant out of the hall.
"Lanxi!"
"Your son is here!" Lan Xi stood up, walked to the center of the hall, and lowered his head.
"We must treat this distinguished guest who has come from afar well!" The Mermaid King looked serious, without any smile on his face.
Lan Xi had long been accustomed to the Mermaid King's attitude. She respectfully agreed and left the hall.
——
"You two ladies, please stay in this room for the time being! The mermaid tribe is simple and I am afraid that we are not hospitable enough. I hope you two ladies will forgive me!" As expected of a maid serving the Mermaid King, she was very polite when she spoke.
Mu Huan and Tan Tai Luo looked at the room decorated with night-shining pearls and gulped inwardly. "Is this shabby?" "The place I lived in before was probably a shabby place!"
"No, no, the nobles' hospitality is very thoughtful, we like it very much!" How could we not like it? No way! Otherwise, our lives would be in danger!
"As long as the two ladies are satisfied, I'll take my leave first. Ladies, have a good rest!" The maid bowed and swam away, dragging the mermaid tail under her.
Mu Huan and Tan Tai Luo watched the maid leave, slumped on the stool, and breathed a sigh of relief.
"What's going on? This mermaid tribe seems weird!" Tan Tai Luo picked up the teacup in his hand and was about to put it to his mouth.
"Wait a minute!" Mu Huan stopped Tan Tai Luo from drinking water. "We still don't know the situation of the mermaid tribe, and why they forced us to come here. So, we have to be careful about everything here these days, including eating!"
"Okay! I understand!" Tan Tai Luo knew that this was not a joke, she had to cooperate with Mu Huan, so that she could achieve twice the result with half the effort.
"So what should we do now? We can't just sit there and wait for death, right?"
"Now we can only wait and see what happens. After all, we know nothing about this place!" Mu Huan frowned. She never expected to be separated from Mu Qing and the others, nor did she expect that the two of them were so "lucky" to be directly teleported to the territory of the mermaids.
"But it's so boring!" Tan Tai Luo was in low spirits. He had just walked all the way here and had never expected that the mermaids were quite good at enjoying themselves. The biggest luminous pearls could be seen everywhere around them. They were truly extravagant and inhumane.
"The mermaids are truly wealthy! They have so many night-shining pearls, yet they use them for decorations and even complain about their simplicity? It's truly beyond the comprehension of ordinary mortals like us!"
"Among the major races, the mermaids live in the underwater city and control almost half of the ocean. It's inevitable that they live a somewhat luxurious life!" Mu Huan rubbed her chin with both hands. She was also helpless! She didn't know what to do in this situation.
"Half?" Tan Tai Luo asked in confusion, "What about the other half?"
"It seems that the other half is the territory of the Sirens. Sirens are good at using their singing to bewitch people. Passing ships dare not pass through that sea area!" But how can you really avoid meeting them?
"I heard that the sirens' songs are very unpleasant, I don't know if it's true!" Tan Tai Luo suddenly became interested. He really wanted to feast his eyes on this legendary species!
"What? You want to listen?" Mu Huan suddenly moved closer, scaring Tan Tai Luo so much that he almost fell off the stool.
"Well, forget it then! What if I get bewitched too? Then you'll be all alone, right?"
"Actually, I won't be lonely!" Mu Huan tapped the glass table lightly with his fingers, making a dull sound.
"Okay, Huanhuan, you deserve a beating!" Tan Tailuo was "angry" and pounced on Mu Huan, wanting to give her a good beating. Speaking of which, it seemed like he hadn't pinched Huanhuan's face for a long time!
"Hahaha! Stop it!"
The two people here seemed to be adapting quite well, but they had no idea that a conspiracy had quietly begun to grow.
"Girl!" There was only a knock on the door. The voice outside the room seemed to be that of the eldest prince named Lanxi. Don't ask why I remember him, because good-looking people always leave a deeper impression in the minds of two people.
"Crown Prince?" I still have to ask politely. Modesty is a virtue!
"It's me! Please open the door, young lady. Lan Xi wants to see you for something!" He treated the woman politely in every word and action. How could he not be the object of admiration of all the mermaids in the entire Sea City?
Mu Huan approached the door and gently pulled the knocker, only to see Lan Xi standing alone outside. With her back to him, she seemed a little lonely.
"Excuse me, Your Highness, what can I do for you?"
"The two girls have just arrived in the mermaid tribe and probably don't know much about them. Lan Xi specially prepared to take the two girls out for a walk."
"..." Mu Huan wanted to say that it wasn't necessary, as they didn't want to go out. However, she couldn't refuse such a kind offer, and thinking that this was a good opportunity for them to get to know the mermaids and facilitate their escape in the future, she agreed.
"Luoluo, come out! The eldest prince is going to take us out for a walk!"
"Okay!" Tan Tailuo skipped out the door. Don't ask her why she was so happy. It was because Lan Xi's face was simply irresistible, and her eyes, as deep and clear as the sea, could see into anyone's heart at a glance.
"Sorry for bothering you. I hope I didn't disturb the two girls' rest." Lan Xi bowed, but the folding fan in her hand accidentally fell to the ground.
Mu Huan just squatted down to help him pick it up, but Lan Xi was faster and had already grabbed the folding fan in her hand before her.
Mu Huan stood up. If she hadn't seen correctly, the eldest prince had seemed quite panicked when he dropped the fan. Could it be that the fan held a hidden secret?
Is it that he can't be discovered by anyone, or that he can't be seen by her and Luoluo? This is quite interesting, and the development of the matter is becoming more and more interesting.
"Two girls, please!" His voice was still calm, but it couldn't hide the panic caused by the falling folding fan.
"Please come in, Your Highness!" Mu Huan took Tan Tai Luo's hand and walked out with Lan Xi.
Along the way, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, these mermaids really know how to enjoy themselves. In the bustling Sea City, the mermaids swimming bustlingly on the Shell Road is a unique experience.
"It's so lively here!" It was almost like the human world, with bustling streets and all sorts of mermaids walking and laughing. It was such a vibrant scene, but one wondered how many conspiracies lay hidden beneath this vitality.
