When Chiyome chews on the fish with her cheeks puffed out, Osiris truly feels a sense of satisfaction.
Watching the little human devour most of the fish, Osiris felt his inexplicable irritation disappear.
What followed was immense satisfaction and happiness.
It seems that as long as he takes good care of humans, he will no longer be anxious or worried.
Until Osiris fed the gall bladder into Chiyo's mouth.
Qianyuan's expression changed, and she grabbed Osiris's arm:
"Dad, I'm full. You can release the rest of the fish back into the water."
Osiris looked at the fish, which was now just a tail, and wondered what reason there was to release it.
Osiris genuinely felt that there was something wrong with the mermaid who raised the child. He wondered how the previous parents had raised him. How could they release their prey after it was caught?
If it tastes good, eat slowly; if it tastes bad, eat quickly. If you can't even taste the fish before it's gone, that's the way wild animals survive.
and……
Osiris touched Qianyuan's belly, finding it too flat, then pinched it to confirm that there was only a little extra soft flesh inside, and his expression became serious:
"You eat so little, no wonder you're so thin. Whether you're human or mermaid, being too thin will kill you. It's survival of the fittest."
So Osiris brought out even more fish.
I'm chasing after Qianyuan again to feed her.
When Qian Yuan tried to dodge, he pulled her into his arms and restrained her with his fish tail. He pinched Qian Yuan's chin with one hand and stuffed fish meat into her mouth with the other.
By the time Qianyuan's belly started to show a slight curve, the little one was already crying from being stuffed with fish.
Pearl fell into Osiris's arms. After watching Qianyuan being put down, he couldn't help but vomit. With tears in his eyes, he lay on the edge of the cave for a while to recover before finally lying back in Osiris's arms.
"Dad, I'm really full, please don't feed me anymore."
Osiris, clutching the pearl, looked at his fragile child and fell silent.
In the end, he simply said, "Your previous guardian fish was so irresponsible. I've never seen a mermaid eat so little. You're so small, and your tail probably isn't very big either, so you should get proper nutrition."
Qian Yuan was already exhausted and drowsy. He explained slowly:
"I used to live in the human world, and then my dad picked me up and brought me back to the mermaid clan."
That's correct.
Such a thin and weak mermaid could only be raised by humans.
They must have kept Qianyuan confined to a small space, which is why Qianyuan wouldn't manifest his fish tail; moreover, they wouldn't feed Qianyuan too much food, preventing him from growing up healthily; they would only pamper Qianyuan's skin with silk and satin, depriving him of the ability to swim and walk, trapping him in human desires.
But his child was still so sincere. Osiris could feel that every word of affection the fry spoke to him came from the bottom of his heart.
The fish fry did not deceive him with sweet words.
Even if he was deceived, that's the problem of those damned humans. What could possibly be wrong with his fish fry?
Osiris was unaware of his own defection; he was still logically considering the situation:
Qianyuan's tail is not long yet, so she is still a child who needs to be cared for by a guardian fish.
It's perfect for him to take care of.
Osiris picked up Qianyuan as if he were a baby, silently combed Qianyuan's beautiful hair, and even applied a little pearl powder to the soles of his feet.
"That will help you recover quickly."
Qianyuan, his eyelids heavy with sleep, looked at Osiris in the present. He felt that his father in the past and his father in the future were no different; they were both the same, his gentle guardian angel.
Qianyuan nestled comfortably into Osiris's arms and quickly fell asleep.
Once the little human had fallen asleep, Osiris lowered his head and couldn't resist secretly kissing his forehead.
When Osiris looked up, he found his people hiding behind the rocks, staring intently at them.
Seeing that the king was looking over, the tribespeople whispered:
"The king, the king finally mustered up the courage to rush forward! Oh, the king only gently kissed the little human's forehead!"
"It's alright, at least Wang dares to get close to humans."
"Yes, even a second of closeness is fine."
“Poor little human cub, he was just snuggling up to the king and acting all cute, but the king is as dense as a blockhead and didn’t even think to hug him.”
Osiris heard his people chattering and glared at them. The mermaids, who had been whispering amongst themselves, immediately scattered and fled.
Osiris then turned his gaze to Chiyuki, and only then did he truly begin to think: Chiyuki had said that he was his child.
However, Osiris shouldn't have any children with anyone, and Chien is definitely not his bloodline; he has already checked.
However, when he embraced Qianyuan, he did feel the activity of the spirit.
It's as if they were father and son long ago.
Osiris was always full of tolerance and affection for Qianyuan. Although he didn't know what family and love meant at all, from the moment he lowered his bottom line to take care of Qianyuan, the seeds of family affection that Qianyuan planted in his heart began to sprout.
Osiris's heart softened, and he used his hand to comb Chiyori's loose hair behind her ears, but when he touched Chiyori's skin, he felt an unusual heat.
The little one hummed in his dream, and tears turned into pearls that fell like beads.
"Dad...I feel so bad..."
Osiris immediately approached Qianyuan and saw that Qianyuan's lower body had transformed into a white-blue gradient fish tail. As the fish tail unfurled, Osiris saw that the scales on Qianyuan's fish tail were loosening and falling off.
