The white cat had the meaning of "bullying the weak and fearing the strong" engraved in its bones. It immediately put the carp in its mouth on the ground and took several steps back.
Seeing it like this, the man withdrew his hand and ignored it.
The cat let Wen Liyu flutter her body on the floor, pinching her throat and meowing to the man in a flattering way.
Chu Shaoyao glanced at it and frowned as he looked at the gray and dusty little carp on the ground.
The carp was not even as big as his palm, and it was obvious that it had little meat.
Wen Liyu looked at the small pond not far away. A light of ecstasy appeared in her round fish eyes. She began to twist her body vigorously and flap her tail.
Before Chu Shaoyao left, his stomach suddenly growled with hunger.
He hesitated for a moment, stopped with a cold face, pinched the fish tail with his fingers in disgust, and walked away.
“It hurts, it hurts...!! My tail! My tail is going to fall off!” Wen Liyu’s fish body was stiff, and her tail was shaking in pain as it swung with his steps.
She was so close! She could have twisted herself into the pond and escaped! But in the end, she was still grabbed and taken away!
"Can't I escape the fate of turning into fish bones and fish ashes?" Wen Liyu broke down in tears. She felt like a kaleidoscope of things was flashing before her eyes, and the feeling of suffocation from lack of water was getting worse and worse.
Her struggles became weaker and weaker, and then she suddenly felt her body floating in the air, and a handsome and cold face enlarged in front of her.
His eyes were like cold stars, his lips were red and his teeth were white, his face was so white that it was almost transparent, and an abnormal blush was particularly obvious on his pale face.
He blinked slowly. His eyelashes were thick and long, and under the sunlight, they formed a small shadow, making his eyes look even deeper and darker.
"What are you looking at? Haven't you seen fish dying from lack of water?" Wen Liyu was dazzled by his beauty. After coming to her senses, she said fiercely, "If you want to kill me, come quickly!"
Chu Shaoyao looked at the fish's mouth that kept opening, and for some reason he didn't strangle her to death. He threw her into the bucket beside him and left.
Wen Liyu was stunned like a fish, wrapped in water, rolling around comfortably, feeling warm as if she was in a winter bed.
After she caught her breath, she slowly moved her fins and tail, swam to the surface of the water, and looked out cautiously.
Without the threat of death, she was now in the mood to observe her surroundings.
It looked like a side hall of a palace. She was placed in a wooden barrel in the yard, with a large black water tank next to her.
The front yard was empty, with no one in sight and overgrown with weeds, looking very desolate.
Behind the bucket was an open room with no furniture. At first glance, there was only a bed, a table, a chair and a shabby wooden wardrobe. Paint-chipped boxes were piled in a dark corner.
“…It’s over. I must have been brought back as food reserve.” Wen Liyu was in tears.
This place is so shabby, it must be where the unfavored people live. I just wonder if that cool guy is the prince.
As she was chasing her tail in circles in annoyance, the bucket was lifted up and ripples appeared on the water surface.
Wen Liyu, who was almost splashed out, tried hard to swing her tail to keep herself in the middle of the water.
Just as she was about to fall out of the bucket, the shaking stopped and someone grabbed her waist and lifted her up while she was dizzy.
Chu Shaoyao frowned and looked at the fish in his hand, feeling that it was not very smart.
Wen Liyu came to her senses and found herself being held in his palm with one hand. When she turned her head, she could see a steaming casserole not far away.
She trembled and wrapped her tail around his little finger, "Don't...don't eat me...wuwu!"
The soft fishtail wrapped around Chu Shaoyao's fingers, and the wet and strange touch almost made him let go.
Before he could do anything, the fish in his hand became like sticky paste. With a 'pop', the whole fish stuck to his little finger and rubbed against it.
The fish's fins and tail were hugging his fingers, and he could feel its small body trembling.
"?" Chu Shaoyao stared at it intently, feeling that this fish was a little unusual.
Wen Liyu stared at his horrified 'fish-eating' eyes, and rubbed her head against his drooping fingertips in a flattering manner. Even though his hands were covered with thick calluses and could scrape off her tender scales with a single force, she still had to rub them.
QAQ Boss, can you feel her flattery? She really doesn’t want to turn into fish bones and fish ashes! !
Chu Shaoyao put her back into the bucket thoughtfully, staring at her with deep eyes.
"..." Wen Liyu's whole body stiffened under his stare, and she sank to the bottom of the bucket little by little.
Chu Shaoyao saw her sinking to the bottom of the bucket, frowned, reached out and pulled her out.
His entire hand was soaked in water, and the temperature of his palm was burning like scalding fish. Wen Liyu cautiously wagged her tail, opened her mouth to speak, but only spit out a small bubble.
She looked at the little bubble and suddenly found it very interesting, so she opened her mouth and blew out a few more bubbles.
Chu Shaoyao watched her play quietly for a while before withdrawing his hand and standing up to leave.
Wen Liyu wanted to look out like she had just done, but she found that the water level in the bucket had dropped a lot. When she looked up, she could only see the inner wall of the barrel and a small piece of sky.
"I... survived?" She swung her tail and began to harass the system in her mind.
'Ding, the pregnancy system is at your service.'
"System! Am I alive now? Have I completed the mission?" Wen Liyu asked repeatedly.
If the system says she's done, it means the cool guy who brought her back, he! Doesn't! Eat! Fish!
"Ding, it's detected that the host has completed the main task, and the reward is being distributed..."
"Rewards distributed. Next mission announced: Help the hero [Chu Shaoyao] survive tonight."
"It turns out that Cool Brother is the male protagonist. How lucky!" Wen Liyu looked at the unfolded screen of the system, tentatively stretched out her fins, and clicked on the name of the eldest prince Chu Shaoyao.
The next second, Chu Shaoyao's personal information form appeared in front of her.
Wen Liyu looked through his basic information, which included his name, gender, height, and weight. Scrolling down, she saw the size of a certain part of his body.
Wen Liyu blushed and deleted the tens digit that almost exceeded 2 from her mind.
She wondered, "Why live through tonight? Is he going to die soon?"
"Beep... Main storyline is being transmitted..."
Wen Liyu closed her eyes and sank into the depths, trying hard to accept the plot.
It turns out that the male protagonist is now a useless prince who is not loved by his parents. In three years, he will become a cruel king who is moody and kills people indiscriminately.
He killed all those who came to attack him.
"??? Kill them all?" Wen Liyu was so shocked she couldn't speak. "Such a cruel world, and they actually let a newbie like me do it?"
"...Host, please do not interrupt the plot transmission. Since you have pressed the confirmation button, if you do not accept the mission in three seconds, you will directly turn into fish bones and fish ashes."
"!! Accept it, accept it!" Wen Liyu was forced to agree repeatedly.
"Ding, main quest released: Interact with the Tyrant and enhance your relationship. Reward: Increased fish tail power, 100 points."
"Tick, Mission 2: Care for the Sick Tyrant. Reward: Shared Dream, 200 points."
