Jiuxiao looked up and immediately got up to swim towards Lengxiang—but was frozen by the cold air three meters away and could not get any closer.
Despite the chill that made his teeth chatter, Jiu Xiao asked anxiously, "How is Xiao Li?"
"It's nothing," Leng Xiang said calmly, then paused before adding, "You're his family, you can make the decision about his marriage."
Long Xun: "..."
The story seems to be going wrong again.
Listening to Leng Xiang's words, Jiu Xiao couldn't tell whether it was a question or a statement from her icy tone, so he could only remain vigilant and smile, "What do you mean by that, Mr. Leng?"
Leng Xiang remained steadfast, maintaining her icy demeanor: "He needs to marry me."
All the fish: "..."
Yes, very good. This sentence has a complete subject, verb, and object, and the referent is clear. The word "needs" strongly highlights the domineering and authoritative nature of the speaker, and further shows that the speaker has no feelings for "him" in the sentence, but is speaking out of a sense of duty or obligation.
That's exactly what makes Yudan's pain even more!
Oh no, mermaids don't have eggs, they only have... cough cough, get the gist.
Dongjun was also shocked by his friend's bold words. He had never realized that his friend, who had fought alongside him many times and was even his equal, was such a... such a piece of trash!
This statement clearly suggests an attempt to forcibly abduct a man!
Wake up, my dear! In this day and age where free love is all the rage, arranged marriage is immoral. Even if you only have that intention, you will be hung on the pillar of shame and despised by everyone!
At this moment, the only one of the many mermaids who was fortunate enough to be still unconscious was Jiu Li. Otherwise, upon hearing these words, he would have been so enraged that he would have activated his bloodline power, and this time, it would probably have been more than just Lan Qi lying down.
The toxicity triggered by Jiu Li is basically proportional to his anger level.
Jiuxiao was stunned by the sudden remark. He even had the leisure to seriously consider whether he should express his anger first or ask what this guy meant.
With Jiu Xiao's intelligence, he immediately detected the underlying meaning of that "need". Jiu Li was not unconscious at any time of day, but she fainted after being kissed by this guy. It must be related to him. So, is it possible that only Leng Xiang can cure Jiu Li's illness?
Torn between worry and anger towards his younger brother, Jiu Xiao froze, pointing a trembling finger at Leng Xiang. His graceful, gauze-like side and tail fins rippled beautifully in the water.
At first glance, it looks like an angel spreading its wings, or a peacock displaying its tail feathers.
Dongjun quickly swam over and pressed Jiuxiao's arm down. He didn't know about other fish, but he knew very well Lengxiang's temper. He didn't want Lengxiang to beat him up just because Jiuxiao pointed at him.
The floating mermaid is a weakling in combat, while the polar mermaid is incredibly powerful—both are legendary figures in history. Dongjun can't bear to see Jiuxiao get hurt.
Jiu Xiao glanced at Dong Jun, and the faint concern in the cold red eyes of the handsome and aggressive merman calmed him down. Jiu Xiao took a deep breath and tried to put on his smiling mask, but unfortunately his facial muscles were quite stiff at the moment, and if he smiled, he could probably only squeeze out a sinister grin.
Jiu Xiao quickly abandoned his laughter and said expressionlessly, "You want to marry my brother? Of course, but at the very least, you have to get my brother's consent. If he doesn't agree, then there's no point in talking!"
After saying that, Jiu Xiao angrily flung his hand away, went straight to a room and crawled inside, not wanting to see Leng Xiang at all.
Dongjun glanced at Lengxiang silently, then quickly followed Jiuxiao into the room—Jiuxiao looked really angry; what if he hurt himself in anger? He had to go check on him!
Leng Xiang came down to inform his future wife's brother of just one sentence. Now that he has received approval, although it is not a formal agreement to marry him, in Leng Xiang's straightforward mind, he has already completed half of the marriage with the consent of his family and himself. This matter can be carried out after Jiu Li wakes up.
So Leng Xiang flicked her silver tail, scattering beautiful ice crystals all over the ground, and leisurely went back to wait for Jiu Li to wake up.
Only the mermaids who had just been sitting in a row, enduring the interrogation from the heavens, remained.
They were all dumbfounded. No matter how wildly they imagined it, they never expected such a dramatic turn of events!
Big brother, do you remember that you and Jiu Li met less than half a day ago?
Do you remember that Jiu Li suddenly went berserk because you angered her?
So you're going to marry him just like that?
Have you asked him?
Judging from your expression, do you disagree and want to kill the other person in a heartbeat?
Holy crap, if this is a whirlwind marriage, that's way too fast!
There are so many things to complain about, I don't even know where to begin!
Does being riddled with flaws make one invincible?
Among the mermaids who were staring blankly at Leng Xiang's aloof back, only one little bean sprouted a sigh of relief without making a sound.
Although this divine reversal is a bit too much, if there is such an intimidating Leng Xiang to stop Jiu Li from courting death, then Jiu Xiao and Dong Jun's path to love should be smooth, right?
Long Xun sincerely wishes Jiu Li and Leng Xiang a happy marriage!
