Mu Huan was silent for a long time, pretending to be thinking seriously about his lifelong affairs. Seeing this, the Mermaid King in front of him also looked anxious!
Although the Mermaid King thought that forcing the person into the bridal sedan was feasible, it was still a bit troublesome. It would be better for the other party to take the bait and agree to "this marriage" on their own initiative!
"I agree!" They have been left alone for a while, so it is better not to make them wait too anxiously. After all, rabbits will really bite when they are cornered.
"Hahahahahahahahaha okay, Miss Mu, if you don't mind, we'll arrange the wedding for tomorrow. I've calculated that tomorrow is a good day for getting married." The Mermaid King breathed a sigh of relief and laughed heartily.
...It's suitable for marriage...Mu Huan was really embarrassed for a moment. The mermaid king was well prepared and even brought the knowledge of the human race.
"Tomorrow? Isn't that too hasty?"
"No, no!" The Mermaid King walked down the stairs and came in front of Mu Huan.
"My son fell in love with you the first time he saw you. So there's no rush. Besides, we mermaids don't have those complicated etiquettes that humans have. As long as you like each other and both of you agree, we can hold the wedding the next day."
I really believed your lies! Mu Huan smiled and said, "It's all up to the Mermaid King!"
"Hahaha, okay, then Miss Mu, you can go and have a rest first. We will take care of the wedding matters!" The Mermaid King was very happy to have solved a big issue that was buried in his heart.
"Then let's go back first!" Mu Huan took the hand of Tan Tai Luo, who was standing beside him in a daze, and quickly left the hall.
"Oh my god, this mermaid king really has no idea what shame is!" Tan Tai Luo was furious. Although he knew that Mu Huan already had his own plans, he still got angry just thinking about it.
"If he knew what shame was, he probably wouldn't have chosen to resort to scapegoating." Compared to Tan Tai Luo, Mu Huan was relatively calm. She had already expected all of this.
"So are we going to look for Lan Yue now?" Tan Tai Luo rubbed his hands expectantly. It was indeed more fun to stir up trouble.
"You don't have to go. I'll go. The most important thing for you now is to go back to your room. When someone comes looking for us, you can help cover for me."
The Mermaid King was a suspicious person. He would definitely send someone to investigate, or perhaps even send wedding clothes over, so it would be better to have someone in the room.
"Okay! Then I'll go back now and we'll split into two groups." Tan Tai Luo turned around and went back to the house where they were living.
Mu Huan smiled helplessly. Luo Luo's personality was truly impulsive. But the most important thing about being friends with someone like that was that it was relaxing and fun.
Mu Huan smiled, looked around, and walked towards Lan Yue's residence.
——
Lan Yue's residence was easy to find, as it wasn't far from Lan Xi's. As the saying goes, wealth and honor are sought in danger. Even at the risk of being discovered by Lan Xi, Mu Huan had to make this trip.
The moment Mu Huan stepped into Lan Yue's residence, he heard the crisp sound of bottles and jars being thrown to the ground.
"Miss Lan Yue, I wonder who has offended you?" Mu Huan was standing in the yard. His voice was neither loud nor soft, but it just fell into Lan Yue's ears.
"It's Miss Mu. Lan Yue is sorry for not welcoming you in person." Lan Yue, wearing a blue corseted long dress, slowly walked out of the house. There was no sign of anger on her face, as if she was not the one who had lost her temper and smashed the bottle in the house just now.
"We are all smart people, so I will speak frankly." Mu Huan walked closer and came in front of Lan Yue, speaking in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
"The Mermaid King wants to marry me to Prince Lanxi."
"What did you say?!" It was almost a scream of disbelief.
Mu Huan almost subconsciously covered his ears, while Lan Yue seemed to realize her own loss of composure and quickly recovered. After all, she was also a member of the royal family of the mermaid tribe.
"Miss Lan Yue seems not very satisfied with this marriage!" I'll make you angry first and then give you a sweet treat.
"How! Could it be!" Lan Yue didn't know how she had managed to hold it in. Hearing this news, she felt as if her heart had been torn apart. She had loved Lan Xi for so many years, even though he hadn't responded in the slightest. But it was still better than hearing with her own ears that he was going to marry someone else.
"Miss Lan Yue must be feeling aggrieved." Mu Huan smiled. "To be honest, I don't want to marry Prince Lan Xi."
"What?" Lan Yue was surprised and looked at Mu Huan, speechless for a while.
"You know my sister and I are trapped in this mermaid tribe. It's like being imprisoned, with no way out." Mu Huan played the "emotional card". "This was proposed by the Mermaid King. If I didn't agree, how could he let my sister and I go? That's why I bit the bullet and agreed to this marriage."
Appeal to their emotions and reason with them. People like Lan Yue are the easiest to be hooked.
"You said the king forced you to agree?" But why would the king do this? He had watched her and Brother Lanxi grow up, so it was impossible for him not to see her feelings for Brother Lanxi. Why was he now asking Brother Lanxi to marry someone else, and a human at that?
Seeing the confusion and struggle in Lan Yue's eyes, no, I can't let her think about it anymore.
"To be honest, I already have someone I love, and I definitely cannot marry Prince Lanxi. So I have an unwelcome request, and I hope Miss Lanyue can agree to it."
Someone you like? A hint of joy flashed through Lan Yue's heart, which meant that she no longer had any thoughts about Brother Lan Xi. "Miss, if you have something to say, just tell me directly. Lan Yue will definitely help you with whatever she can do."
"Miss Lan Yue, you don't have to hide it from me. I've been through this myself, so I can naturally see your true feelings for Prince Lan Xi." Mu Huan stared straight into Lan Yue's eyes.
"If Miss Lan Yue doesn't feel wronged, could you please marry in my place at tomorrow's wedding?"
"Marry on your behalf?" Lan Yue never thought it could be like this. Could the human race be so good at playing?
"That's right, and I think the way Prince Lanxi looks at you is different from the way he looks at us. Maybe Miss Lanyue can use this opportunity to confirm Prince Lanxi's sincerity." There is sincerity, but compared with power, I don't know which one is more important.
Lan Yue bit her lip lightly, her heart struggling. Brother Lan Xi hated being lied to the most, but compared to being hated by him in the future, watching him marry someone else was the most painful thing for Lan Yue.
"I promise you!"
There was a smile in Mu Huan's eyes. Everything was perfect and going according to her idea. Although she felt a little guilty towards this infatuated, loyal and simple girl, there was nothing she could do. The Mermaid King chose to do this, so she had to make plans for herself.
"Then it's settled!"
