At the tail end of autumn and the beginning of winter, it couldn't resist falling snow.
Snowflakes were falling heavily, both in the sea and in the sky, but the ocean snow was not as spectacular.
It only dropped a little in a small area, after all, it's winter now, so the output isn't high.
Compared to the snow falling from the sky, the snow falling from the ocean is really not much.
The snow continued into the daytime, but Xu Qiaoqiao wasn't sleepy and didn't want to rest yet.
She longs to return to the small patch of sea where she and Junjun lived. She's been away from home for so long, and she wonders if the krill there have multiplied, if the seawater is still the same color, or if any new uninvited guests have come.
Indeed, in Xu Qiaoqiao's heart, this sea area has already become her and Junjun's home.
They had been wandering for nearly five years, traversing all the seas, large and small. Among them, Xu Qiaoqiao's favorite places were the tropical seas and the northern seas.
The fish in the Atami area are all delicious, and there are many kinds of food, so you don't have to be picky at all. After the meal, you can also watch some after-dinner entertainment, such as small fish crawling into coral caves.
Jun Qi didn't give up on finding a giant coral for Xu Qiaoqiao, but unfortunately, there really wasn't such a large coral in the ocean. So far, the largest coral he had ever seen was only half his size.
It would be difficult enough for him to crawl through a hole, let alone for Xu Qiaoqiao to crawl through one.
Xu Qiaoqiao was completely unaware of Jun Qi's little schemes. In fact, sometimes when she was sleeping, Jun Qi would quietly leave to search for coral in the sea area where they were at that time.
This time, it was Xu Qiaoqiao who insisted on coming back.
She had a feeling that she would soon be an adult, which meant she could have a baby.
Xu Qiaoqiao was a little worried. Even though she had been a small animal for so long, she still wasn't very used to this damned mating season. Plus, this time it was a blue whale, and she didn't know what it would be like when this season actually came.
Therefore, Xu Qiaoqiao needs a safe place to get through this period.
The sea area where Jun Qi grew up is an excellent choice.
Feeling the familiar surroundings, Xu Qiaoqiao suddenly felt a little emotional. Before returning, she missed this place very little, even less than in the previous worlds. But now that she was really coming back, she felt nervous.
This is where she and Junjun first met, and it's also the place where they've lived the longest so far. They've done many things together here and have many wonderful memories.
Jun Qi held Xu Qiaoqiao's pectoral fin and sensed her complex emotions. His eyes flickered a few times, and he roughly understood her current feelings.
Xu Qiaoqiao didn't explain in detail why she came back, but Jun Qi understood.
This damn heat cycle.
Are they about to mate?
Jun Qi looked at Xu Qiaoqiao's large body, and then suddenly looked at his own small frame. Compared to Xu Qiaoqiao, he was really small, and his height was also so small.
I had never paid attention to this kind of thing before.
Jun Qi is now somewhat concerned, feeling uneasy. He suddenly remembered that when he secretly slipped away to find coral for Xu Qiaoqiao, he had witnessed other whales mating.
Among them are blue whales.
Thinking of that scene, Jun Qi looked at his small frame again and couldn't help but feel a little discouraged. He suddenly had a thought that it would be great if he could grow taller, or even bigger, so that he could match Qiao Qiao's current size.
Because of this problem, Jun Qi has become very depressed lately, and he feels listless and lethargic in everything he does. However, he is still the same in front of Xu Qiaoqiao.
He had a gut feeling that he couldn't let Xu Qiaoqiao know that he cared about this matter. Back then, Xu Qiaoqiao was quite proud of her tall stature.
If only Qiaoqiao could transform into human form soon, but unfortunately, she doesn't seem to be able to. I wonder how Xiangsi is doing.
Indeed, before Xiangsi left, Junqi secretly spoke with her. After all, humans certainly know more about human records, and he hoped that if Xiangsi returned to the land smoothly, she could also help find similar books.
However, how could Jun Qi escape Xu Qiaoqiao's sharp eyes?
After all, they've been together for so many years, so Xu Qiaoqiao didn't ask at first, just to give Jun Qi time to explain himself.
Since you won't tell me, then I'll have to ask.
So, on a sunny afternoon, as the two of them were about to enter this sea area south of the Canghai Sea, Xu Qiaoqiao suddenly stopped while swimming, and Jun Qi looked at her in confusion.
What's wrong?
Xu Qiaoqiao blew bubbles and asked directly without beating around the bush, "Jun Jun, are you hiding something from me lately?"
Jun Qi's eyelashes trembled as he looked at Xu Qiaoqiao, unsure of what to say. How could she have seen through him? Was his disguise not good enough?
Seeing Jun Qi's expression, Xu Qiaoqiao narrowed her eyes slightly. So, he's hiding something from her.
"Qiaoqiao, I—"
"Don't try to lie! Let me tell you, we've been together for so long, I can tell right away whether you're lying or not!"
Xu Qiaoqiao cut off Jun Qi's next words in time, not wanting him to make up any other excuses.
Xu Qiaoqiao had rarely seen Junjun in this world looking troubled, not even showing any signs of worry. This time was different, but Xu Qiaoqiao thought it was quite good.
