Chapter 239

Ika rushed out of the water and stretched out his hands to hug Rong Heng like he did just now. With his strength and speed, he would probably drag Rong Heng into the water again.

"Stop."

Rong Heng stretched out a hand and pressed it on his forehead in time. The little mermaid who rushed towards him was fixed in place and could not move forward.

The little mermaid looked at the hand on his forehead in confusion, and didn't understand why he stopped. This was a situation he had never encountered before.

At this time, Rong Heng withdrew his hand and removed the power of protection at the same time.

He had just gone out to fight a monster in the morning, and just now he used displacement twice in a row. There was not much strength left in his body, and he couldn't hold the little mermaid for a long time. As soon as

Rong Heng's power was retracted, Ika fell back into the water with a splash, and the splash splashed all over him.

However, Rong Heng had just been dragged into the water by Ika, and now his whole body was soaked, so he was not afraid of the splash.

The little mermaid in the pool swam out of the water again. Although he knew that he fell back into the water because of Rong Heng, the boy was not annoyed at all. His eyes were still full of joy when he looked at Rong Heng, and they curved into two cute crescents.

"Yang... Yangyang."

He stretched out his hand to hug Rong Heng, but thinking of being immobilized just now, he learned his lesson this time and only gently grabbed the corner of Rong Heng's clothes, and his expression became a little more aggrieved.

Rong Heng was about to speak when he heard footsteps behind him.

"Brother..."

Xiao Lihua approached and called him softly, then hid behind her brother and poked her head out, looking at Ika with curiosity and a little fear.

The way Ika jumped out of the water to attack her just now really scared her. She thought it was a monster hiding in the water and eating children, but now she saw...

this monster with a fish tail is... pretty good-looking?

Xiao Lihua has never had any resistance to beautiful things. In addition, she and her brother were not injured, so she forgave Ika instantly, but she couldn't help but feel a little scared in her heart.

When Xiao Lihua looked around, Ika found her, and his smiling eyes suddenly changed, becoming fierce and alert again, and even his teeth were slightly bared.

Seeing his fierce look, Xiao Lihua quickly retracted her head, "Brother..."

"Don't be afraid."

Rong Heng comforted his sister, and turned his head to look at Ika. He didn't agree with him scaring people like this, but when his eyes swept over the little mermaid's body and saw the purple bruises on his smooth skin, he couldn't help but soften his heart.

He softened his tone and said, "This is Xiao Lihua, my sister, she won't hurt you."

Then he paused slightly, then frowned and warned, "You are not allowed to hurt her, understand?"

Ika's beastly degree is very high, he almost can't understand human language, but he can feel Rong Heng's emotional changes and can roughly understand what he means.

He pursed his lips in grievance, but when Xiao Lihua poked her head out to look at him again, he did not show any aggression.

Xiao Lihua's courage gradually grew.

She walked out from behind her brother calmly, squatted down next to her brother, stared at Ika's enchanting and beautiful face, and couldn't help looking at his beautiful fish tail swaying gently underwater.

"You are so beautiful." Xiao Lihua said with a smile.

Ika, who had been pouting and reluctant, was slightly startled when he saw the little girl's sweet smile. He looked a little more silly and cute, and didn't look fierce at all.

Xiao Lihua smiled even sweeter, and looked at Ika's gradually changing blue fish tail again, feeling that this was a color she had never seen before, and there was an unusually ethereal and clear beauty under the clear water.

Then, she noticed the paintbrush in the pool - it was the one that the little monkey had just dropped and rolled into the pool at some point.

"Ah, my paintbrush!" Little Lihua pointed at the paintbrush and said anxiously.

Ika looked in the direction of her finger, then let go of Rong Heng's clothes, turned around and entered the water again. Her beautiful fish tail swayed in the water, sparkling and beautiful.

The lion brothers and sisters squatting by the pool were stunned.

The little mermaid dived to the bottom of the pool, picked up the paintbrush, and then turned around and swam towards the surface of the water.

Watching the boy approaching until he broke through the water and came to her, Little Lihua happily stretched out her hand and said crisply, "Thank you!"

However, Ika withdrew his hand and did not hand her the paintbrush.

Xiao Lihua was stunned, "This is my paintbrush..."

Seeing that Ika was playing with the paintbrush in his hand and refused to give it back to her, Xiao Lihua thought for a moment, then reached into the soul storage bag and took out two candies.

"You...you return the paintbrush to me, I, I will treat you to candy." As he said that, he handed the two candies to the little mermaid.

Ika looked at the two candies, which were wrapped in plastic wrapping paper and refracted the tiny rays of light in the sunlight, like two gems.

He liked the two candies at first sight, and reached out to take them. Seeing Xiao Lihua staring at the paintbrush in his hand, he stretched out his hand and generously handed it to her.

Xiao Lihua took the paintbrush and smiled and said thank you.

Rong Heng heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the two people become friendly. He stretched out his hand to Ika, wanting him to give him his hand so that he could see the wound on his nails.

But Ika saw this and placed the two candies he had just received on his palm, then showed Rong Heng a brilliant smile, full of pure joy.

He didn't know that these two candies could be eaten, but he just gave the "gems" he had just received to his Yangyang.

Rong Heng looked at the candies he gave him with some surprise, and then looked at the happy smile of the little mermaid. In the end, he accepted one, and peeled off the candy wrapper for the other one, and handed him the candy inside.

"Eat it." He said.

The little mermaid blinked her eyes, her nose twitched, she sniffed the candy, and finally took Rong Heng's hand, opened her mouth and put the candy into her mouth.

As soon as she tasted the candy, the little mermaid's eyes lit up.

Delicious!

Rong Heng slightly bent his lips and handed him another candy, "This is edible."

Ika looked at the candy, then looked at him, but shook his head and pushed his hand back, his smiling eyes sparkling, as if he wanted him to eat the candy.

Who can refuse such a beautiful and lovely little mermaid? Especially when he tries to show you kindness.

Rong Heng finally accepted the candy, then pulled the little mermaid's hand over and carefully looked at the wound on his right ring finger.

"How did you get this?" He frowned.

Ika didn't say anything, but stared at him with trust in his eyes. It was Xiao Lihua who spoke: "It looks so painful, did someone hit you?"

Then she continued: "Are you a new cub? What's your name?"

At this time, Xiao Lihua naturally realized that this boy with a fish tail was not a monster, but a beastly cub.

He should be a newcomer like Xixi Mubao.

Ika still didn't answer, but just smiled happily at them.

Seeing this, Rong Heng ignored Xiao Lihua's one-sided conversation, and reached out to take out medical spray and adhesive tape from the soul storage bag - because he often went out to fight, he always carried these first aid items with him.

He took the spray and sprayed it on Ika's injured finger. The slightly irritating smell of the medicine made the little mermaid frown unhappily.

In the distance, Kerrick, who had been observing this place, couldn't help holding his breath.

Every time they added healing medicine to the water tank, Ika would become more manic, either scrambling in the water tank or banging the tank wall frantically. Now watching Rong Heng applying medicine to him, Kerrick was a little worried.

Fortunately, Ika just wrinkled his face and didn't make any other movements, not even pulling his hand back.

Rong Heng helped him apply medicine, and then bandaged his wound with tape. The tape has good waterproof properties and is not afraid of getting wet in the water.

Ika, who was originally wrinkling his face, looked at Rong Heng's serious look, and gradually became absent-minded, and he didn't know what he thought of.

"Okay."

Rong Heng let go of his hand and looked at his upper body again. The part that was not covered by the scales was covered with bruises. In addition, the little mermaid's skin was white and tender, and it looked very painful.

But the boy seemed to have gotten used to it.

It was hard to imagine that this was the little boy who cried and asked him for a hug with just a little injury and no skin broken.

After Rong Heng let him go, Ika took back his hand. He looked at the tape wrapped around his fingers, bent down and sniffed it curiously, then frowned again.

Obviously, he still didn't like the smell of medicine.

Rong Heng's voice softened again, and asked, "Is there anything else to deal with?"

Ika looked up at him and blinked in confusion.

Rong Heng sighed, pointed at his shoulders and his arm with fish scales, and then waved the medical spray in his hand, "Swim closer, I will help you apply the medicine." Ika

understood what he meant, shook his head in resistance, and not only did he not move closer, but swam away to the center of the pool.

It seems that he really doesn't like applying the medicine.

Rong Heng was thinking about what to do, but Li Sinian took the opportunity to come over and said to his son, "Xiangyang, go change your clothes first, don't catch a cold."

Thinking of Lu Li who had been sick and lying in the room for two days, Rong Heng didn't dare to show off. He waved to the little mermaid, and then Li Sinian led him away.

Although Ika swam away, his eyes were always on Rong Heng. When he saw him suddenly disappear, he was stunned for a moment, and then swam over hurriedly.

"Yang... Yangyang!"

The little mermaid swam to the shore, her expression full of anxiety and panic, and her two hands were touching and searching the place where Rong Heng had just disappeared, but she couldn't find anything.

Countless broken pictures flashed in Ika's mind.

It was a scene when he and Rong Heng played together when they were little, but those scenes had long since become fragmented, and only the last scene was so clear.

"My sister is about to turn one month old. Mom said that when she turns one month old, she can play with us."

"I'll bring her to see you tomorrow."

Little Ika said yes, and then stood on the steps at the door of his house, watching his best friend Yangyang being picked up by the housekeeper.

Until he completely disappeared at the corner of the street, little Ika reluctantly withdrew his gaze and returned to the empty house with only him and the housekeeper robot.

Although they had just separated, he was already looking forward to meeting the next day.

He went to bed early that day, and then got up early the next day. He came to the door of his house as usual, sat on the steps and looked at the corner of the street, looking forward to the appearance of that figure.

The little Ika kept waiting, from day to night, for many, many days, until all his memories turned gray.

His best friend Yangyang never showed up again, and just disappeared forever in his lonely life...
