Yunlai Manor, Garden.
Helian Jue sat on the cold stone bench, and Qiao You sat in his lap.
"Brother, I can sit by myself." In front of Helian Jue, Qiao You was still a well-behaved little fish. She was worried that her brother would be tired from the meeting, so she wanted to sit by herself and not add to Helian Jue's burden.
Helian Jue held Qiao You tightly around the waist, making it impossible for him to move.
“The stone bench is too cold, so I’ll sit on my brother’s lap,” Helian Jue replied, noting it in his mind. He then reminded Su Yinchen to add cushions to the stone bench in the garden.
Qiao You remained silent, occasionally stealing glances. After being caught by Helian Jue's gaze for the eighth time, Qiao You spoke up, "Brother, did I do something wrong...?"
Upon hearing Xiaoyu say this, Helian Jue immediately replied, "Xiaoyu is great."
"The little fish did nothing wrong."
Qiao You's eyes clearly told Helian Jue, "I don't think what you're saying is true."
Helian noticed a stray eyelash stuck to Qiao You's lower eyelid and touched it with his finger. "Baby, everyone is different."
"Just like Su Xia and Lan Yu are both merfolk, but they look different and have different personalities."
“And Su Yinchen and Su Xia are different from you and me.”
“They have their own way of getting along. If Su Xia is willing, we need to respect his ideas. We can’t make them follow our rules.”
Helian Jue knew that his little fish was sincere, passionate, and full of a sense of justice.
He is serious and generous to his friends and wants them to be well, which is why he wanted Su Xia to go back to Yushui Bay with them.
The little fish has very few interactions with people and very few emotional connections.
To attribute some of Su Yinchen's actions to him and then conclude that it is unreasonable and wrong is wrong.
"My brother is so good to me, can't Su Yinchen be the same way to Xiaxia?" Qiao You understood Helian Jue's words. "I know my brother is good to me, and if Su Yinchen likes Xiaxia, he should be good to Xiaxia too."
Helian Jue tidied the stray hairs by Qiao You's ear, "But baby, you've forgotten that Su Yinchen isn't me."
Qiao You's lips moved but she didn't say anything. After a long silence, she hugged Helian Jue's neck and said, "Brother is the best."
Helian Jue hugged Qiao You back, gently patting her back, "Little Fish is the best."
Qiao You closed his eyes and focused all his attention on Helian Jue's aura.
“Brother, I consider Xiaxia to be my only kindred spirit.”
Helian Jue's heart skipped a beat. Little Fish...
"In ancient Earth, I was the only one among the entire mermaid race who could transform into human form; my father, mother, and other members of the race could not."
“Even here, I am still special, unique. The merfolk here only have tails, not legs.”
"Grandma Yu Peiyi said that the Yu family is her clan, but they are human beings, and they are different from me."
"Only Xiaxia today is the same as me."
When Qiao You learned that Su Xia had regained her legs, he felt a moment of peace; he was no longer the only one all alone.
Although he didn't know why Xia Xia had become like this... Qiao You had already considered Su Xia as a companion in his heart, which was why he was so angry when faced with Su Yinchen's neglect.
Of course, this is also because there was such a perfect example as Helian Jue before them.
"Baby." Helian Jue felt very sorry for Qiao You and could only call out to him again and again.
The flowers in Yunlai Manor were in full bloom, but the two people embracing each other had no time to appreciate them, using their own warmth to make each other feel warm.
