Jiuqi pursed the corners of his lips slightly to suppress the emotions rising in his eyes, and his body was pulled to the side by Chu Ci.
Chu Ci's voice rang out immediately, "The potion that brings you to adulthood early will deprive you of the mermaid's strong physique and long life. Although you will still have a fish tail, it will be very difficult for you to dive into such deep sea areas. Are you sure you want it?"
There was a hint of hesitation in Fei Ting's eyes, but then he nodded firmly.
"Okay." Chu Ci nodded. The small silver jar in her hand dissipated in her palm, announcing that her friendship with the mermaid royal family was over. "Wait for me."
Looking at Chu Ci's face, Fei Ting couldn't help but say, "Aren't you going to ask me what I'm going to do?"
"I don't care what is going to happen to your mermaid clan." Chu Ci tilted his head slightly when he heard her words, raised his hand to stroke his hair, and continued to walk into the house without stopping.
Jiuqi wagged his tail and followed Chu Ci. When he heard these words, the gloom in his eyes became even stronger.
After entering the room, he couldn't help but raise his hand and put his arm around Chu Ci's neck from behind, preventing her from entering the laboratory.
Chu Ci paused, turned his head to look at the man, raised his eyebrows, and asked him, "What's wrong?"
"Why not give it to her..." Jiuqi was originally a little bit at a loss. Seeing Chu Ci was about to enter the room, he didn't think much about it. On impulse, he raised his hand and looked at Chu Ci in front of him. He spoke, his voice a little low, and it was unknown what kind of emotion it contained.
Hearing his voice, Chu Ci paused, looked into his ambiguous deep blue eyes, and blinked again, "Give me a reason?"
Jiuqi came back to her senses after hearing these words, pursed her lips and stopped talking. With a bit of stubbornness, her deep blue eyes flickered unpredictably. She used some force in her hands and just pulled Chu Ci, unwilling to let Chu Ci into her laboratory.
The hands were cold, holding Chu Ci tightly. The whole mermaid pressed against Chu Ci's back, flapping its tail constantly, stirring up ripples in the surrounding water.
Seeing Chu Ci looking at him, he met Chu Ci's eyes.
Jiuqi paused for a moment, as if he hadn't anticipated this situation. After a long pause, he spoke softly, his voice soft and obedient, as if he was acting coquettishly, trying to hide his previous emotions. "I just... don't like the royal family. I was impulsive."
Chu Ci tilted her head and looked at the various emotions that could not be concealed in his eyes. She paused for a long time, then glanced at the love value on the task panel. After pondering for a moment, she raised her hand to lift his chin, and her pair of emerald green eyes met his deep blue eyes, just looking at him.
She didn't say anything before because the emotions he expressed about everything seemed to be similar, and the arrival of Fei Ting at this moment was obviously a point of emotional outburst for him, but logically speaking, he would not have come into contact with the mermaid royal family in the past.
"What are you hiding?" There was a hint of doubt in Chu Ci's slightly cold voice, with a soft ending. It was the tone that Jiuqi was most familiar with, but she asked such a question.
Especially the feeling of being seen through from those eyes made Jiuqi feel a chill in his heart.
