Xu Qiaoqiao's gaze immediately fell over, and only now did she realize that the little girl was wearing a bright red dress, and there was a red cloth next to her, which looked like a red veil.
Is this a wedding dress?
However, the other person kept calling it "Little Blue," which completely changed Xu Qiaoqiao's mind. She looked at the other person with slightly unfriendly eyes. Why were most of the female protagonists she met like this? Did they like naming their pets so much?
It was one thing to deal with Guoguo and Erya before, but now there's another little blue one?
Forget about the name; it doesn't sound good at all.
The little girl's soft voice continued, "Xiao Lan, do you know? The number of fish caught in the village has been decreasing in recent years, and many of them die as soon as they are caught. Everyone says that the sea god is causing trouble."
"According to tradition, the bride who was sacrificed to the sea god in the past did not please the sea god. So this year, everyone will choose a new one. Many girls in the village are choosing together. I was chosen. Aren't you lucky, Xiao Lan?"
Xiangsi smiled and touched Xu Qiaoqiao's kiss. This big fish is really big. She was really scared when she first saw it. And its mouth can open so wide. No wonder it was kept by the sea god's messenger.
Bride of the Sea God?
This is all the feudal dregs of the old society!
Hearing Xiangsi's words, Xu Qiaoqiao thought to herself: You are indeed quite lucky. Out of so many girls, you were the only one chosen to feed the fish.
Moreover, considering Xiangsi's age, seven years old is the absolute maximum. Even if some people in ancient times had developmental delays, it would still be close to that age.
Poseidon is really not picky.
Unconsciously, Xu Qiaoqiao swung her tail, splashing some seawater onto Xiangsi. When she saw Xu Qiaoqiao's action, she looked very surprised and laughed happily.
"Ha! Little Blue, you're so naughty! Doesn't the Envoy keep an eye on you?"
Xu Qiaoqiao: Him? Mind my own business? Give it a try?
Xiangsi stretched out her little hand and carefully lay down beside the small boat. Her big eyes were full of doubt as she asked, "But, Xiaolan, have you ever seen the Sea God? I heard he's very tall, maybe even bigger than you."
“I am the bride of the sea god, a status of exceptional nobility.”
Seeing the little girl's earnest look, Xu Qiaoqiao began to recall the contents of the book and how the little girl was eventually rescued.
This part wasn't explained in detail in the book, because the female protagonist was already a fifteen-year-old girl at the beginning of the story, undergoing her coming-of-age ceremony.
How exactly were they rescued? They can't possibly have to carry this little girl around for the rest of their lives.
It's impossible to even think about it.
Besides, why should they? They weren't even close. In addition, she remembered that in the original book, the male protagonist learned about Junjun's merman identity because of her, and in order to save his seriously ill mother, he directly cut out Junjun's heart.
Because of the book's setting, there is a mermaid's heart that can heal all things.
It's best to keep her away from this male lead, the one named Chang Jue. He beats her up every time they meet, even though from his perspective, saving his mother is understandable.
Thinking of this, Xu Qiaoqiao angrily slapped the sea. Jun Qi sensed Xu Qiaoqiao's inexplicable anger, reached out and patted her head, then lowered his head and kissed Xu Qiaoqiao's eyes, trying to comfort her in the same way.
The movements don't look very practiced.
As darkness fell, Xu Qiaoqiao glanced at the sky. She and Junjun had stayed here for too long; it was time to leave.
Her gaze shifted to Xiangsi, who was clearly feeling unwell due to the drop in temperature. Her clothes were too thin, and her small body was trembling. Even her lips had turned purple from the cold.
What a terrible thing!
These pieces of junk are deadly.
"Little Blue, are you leaving?"
Xiangsi knew it was getting dark, and she didn't know how long she had been adrift at sea. She had long since eaten all the food on the ship, and when she fell into the sea today, she was actually a little relieved.
She coughed a few times, her little face filled with worry as she looked at the sky. The envoy hadn't paid any attention to her, only focusing on clinging to Little Blue. She wondered if he would tell her about the Sea God.
I'm outta here, I'm really leaving.
Xu Qiaoqiao's pectoral fins enveloped Jun Qi's body, and then she slowly retreated. Meeting this little girl was an accident, so in the original book, the little girl's survival should also have been due to her own luck.
She doesn't need to do anything.
Xu Qiaoqiao looked at Xiangsi, her big eyes standing out against his thin face. Oh no, she felt a little reluctant to let go, but this was troublesome.
If all else fails, just grab some food for them; that'll at least do something.
Xu Qiaoqiao comforted herself, thinking, "Little Xiangsi, don't blame me. After all, it's a vast ocean. If I were human, I would have saved her, but the problem is I'm not. Besides, I have to take care of my own and Junjun's safety."
You're so naive. If you encountered other humans, you'd probably be thinking about how to capture her and Junjun.
It's not easy for someone with a family to support.
Without pausing, Xu Qiaoqiao led Jun Qi directly into the sea.
Seeing the blue whale's actions, Xiangsi paused, her eyes immediately reddening. She sniffed, wondering if she had offended Little Blue or the envoy with what she had just said.
She clutched her red dress, looked up at the sky; it was the fifteenth of the month, and the moon was very round.
The weather in the ocean is very changeable. Even though it snowed lightly during the day, the moon can still be seen at night.
