39. Night 39 Love You
Yuan Mu reluctantly examined the merman and confirmed that he was simply drowsy from fatigue. "Just let him get some sleep."
Lu Xi stayed by the mermaid's bed and helped him pull up the quilt. Yuan Mu saw that she didn't intend to leave.
"Let him rest, let's go out."
Lu Xi shook his head. "Go and rest first."
Yuan Mu was furious. Seeing her only caring about the mermaid, completely ignoring her own recent recovery, he turned and left. Lu Xi noticed his anger, but now she was truly worried about the mermaid. He might have been overly tired because of her.
Every time she woke up in the past few days, the mermaid would be by her bedside. She didn't know whether he had eaten or slept well.
Lu Xi sat in front of the merman's bed, looking at his quiet and peaceful sleeping face, and before she knew it, she also fell asleep on her stomach.
She didn't know how long she slept. When she woke up, she found her wrist itchy and the room was completely dark.
Is it dark?
Lu Xi was about to get up and turn on the light when she felt her wrist being gently pinched. She looked up and saw that the mermaid had sat up at some point, with the quilt covering his waist. His cold fingertips were stroking Lu Xi's smooth wrist, and his beautiful eyes were half closed.
The soft moonlight outside the window fell on his face, casting a shadow on his fair face, and his body seemed to emit a soft light.
"Asent, are you awake?" Lu Xi said happily.
But then, she felt dizzy and was pulled over by a hand and pushed onto the bed. The boy's suppressed voice echoed above her head, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
This tone, could it be that...
"You guys switched personalities?"
He did not answer, but looked at Lu Xi with complicated eyes. He did not share the memories with his other personality, but the shock this time was too great, so great that it woke him up from his slumber.
He couldn't wait to come out and see her, but the idiot wouldn't let him out because he wanted to occupy her.
Finally, he squeezed him out.
The mermaid lifted her wrist and put his face against it. He woke up when her breath poured out from the crack that day. He didn't know what had happened or why she had changed her body, but the feeling of similarity at the time was finally explained.
She is Miss Lu Xi.
"Why didn't you tell me, Miss Lu Xi."
Lu Xi listened to the pain in his tone. This personality always loved to laugh. Was it because of her that he was suffering so much?
"I'm sorry." Lu Xi raised her arms and hugged him. She felt his heart beating violently in his chest. His body trembled slightly. He hugged her back and heard her say, "I'm back."
His eyes couldn't help but become moist, but he gritted his teeth and didn't let her notice. He had been waiting for these words for forty years...
In the empty playground, a little boy with silver-blue hair and delicate figure sat next to the slide and played with building blocks.
"Hey, tell me."
Another little boy slid down the slide. He had the same facial features as this little boy, but his expression was completely different from his, not as lifeless.
"What does Miss Lu Xi like to eat?" He squatted in front of the little boy. Miss Lu Xi was asleep now. He wanted to find out what she liked to eat and then have someone cook it for her.
“You can’t taste it.”
The boy playing with building blocks turned his back to him. The other little boy got upset and said, "Just tell me."
The little boy playing with building blocks still ignored him, so he walked over and continued to ask, "Stop playing, are you going to tell me or not?"
This time, the little boy stopped, but still kept his head down. "What's the point of saying it? She's dead and she won't come back."
"She's not dead, Miss Lu Xi is not dead." He grabbed the boy by the collar and pulled him up, staring at the face that looked exactly like his. "She just fell asleep."
"She's dead." The boy still lowered his head.
"She didn't. You are not allowed to say she is dead." The boy punched him, pushed him to the ground and punched him twice.
The boy did not resist at all, but he was still holding a building block tightly in his hand, and the sharp corner of the building block pierced into the flesh of his palm.
"Miss Lu Xi is dead."
He repeated this sentence again, and the other boy raised his fist angrily, about to hit him in the face.
But he didn't smash it down, because he saw that the boy under him had red eyes and nose, and pearls fell on the sand behind him. Those were his tears.
"Idiot." He got up from him and turned his back to the boy with red and swollen cheeks. "I will let Miss Lu Xi wake up. When she wakes up, don't fight with me. She is mine."
"No." The boy lying on the ground refused. He turned his head away so that he wouldn't have to look at his miserable appearance.
"What did you say?" The boy came over angrily and wanted to hit him again, but seeing that he was half dead, he gritted his teeth and stopped, "Just cry here, it's better not to come out again."
"Miss Lu Xi is not yours." After he left, the little boy murmured, "She is not yours, she is mine."
After that, the two little boys never saw each other again. When they left the body, they kept sleeping, in order to preserve the best energy so that when they occupied the body again, they could focus on doing what they wanted to do and tried to wake her up.
He had waited for this day for a long time.
Lu Xi only took care of the mermaid for one night. When he woke up the next day, it was his turn to take care of her again.
"Is it hot?" He scooped a spoonful of meat porridge and put it to her mouth. She ate it reluctantly and saw his concerned eyes.
Lu Xi was really not used to it for a while.
"It's not hot." She shook her head.
Lu Xi was fed porridge by him. She had already explained to him the ins and outs of this body and that she could live without drinking porridge, but he seemed not to listen.
"Is it tasty."
"Um……"
After a while, she saw him stop.
She looked at him in confusion, only to see the mermaid's white fingertips brush the corner of her mouth, and then he brought his fingers to his mouth and licked them.
"Delicious." He chuckled.
Lu Xi saw him lick the porridge off the tip of his tongue, and then lick his lower lip. The red tip of his tongue contrasted with his light-colored thin lips, leaving wet marks on his lips.
Even though he had experienced many worlds, when he saw such a handsome boy doing such an ambiguous act, Lu Xi couldn't help but feel his old face getting slightly hot, and he looked at him in a daze.
But Lu Xi quickly frowned. She felt that he was still young and should be taught a lesson. "Don't do this again in the future."
His face froze, "Ms. Lu Xi doesn't like it?"
Lu Xi saw the merman's bright smile fade, and her silver-blue eyes were covered with a deep gloom, as if the world had darkened. She suddenly wondered if her tone was too harsh. They had just met, and he must have been happy, so he couldn't help but get close to her.
"Anyway, don't do this again..." she sighed.
Lu Xi did not sleep very well that night. She seemed to hear vaguely a melodious song coming from afar. The song had an intoxicating magic, and she could not wake up even if she wanted to.
She felt something imprinted on her forehead, cheeks, and nose tip, with a wet and soft feeling, and finally lingered on her lips, the wet and soft feeling prying open her lips and tongue to take it freely.
“Hmm…”
Lu Xi resisted uncomfortably, but her head was pressed tightly on the back. She was entangled tightly and finally stopped resisting.
"Ms. Lu Xi."
Lu Xi, who was sleeping, didn't know that she was being held tightly in the arms of the slightly panting merman. His face was flushed with an alluring blush, and his distracted silver-blue eyes were like the most beautiful gems.
At this moment, he lost control due to emotion and turned back into a mermaid. His long hair fell down like a waterfall, entangling the two of them like a spider web, making them inseparable.
"Ms. Lu Xi, I love you."
He whispered his love into her ear.
He had fallen in love with her a long time ago, when she still treated him as a child, but he didn't understand it then.
Until now, I say it myself...
One day, he would tell her when she was awake, but not now, not yet.
The mermaid held her face with his cold fingertips, tracing the facial features in his memory. He couldn't help but lean over and kiss her again, but the mermaid's singing made Lu Xi unable to wake up.
Lu Xi knew why she couldn't sleep well, because when she woke up, she found a fish tail wrapped around her body, and a beautiful mermaid boy was sleeping beside her, with his long hair covering the entire bed.
Her face suddenly darkened and she held her forehead with her hand. When on earth did he climb onto her bed? But he looked like he hadn't woken up yet. His usually extremely fair cheeks were rosy from being covered in the quilt, and his silver-blue hair was very long, spreading on the bed like silk.
"Hmm..." He suddenly frowned, his eyelashes trembled, and he opened his translucent eyes, "Ms. Lu Xi?"
If the mermaid in front of me couldn't speak and move, she would look like an exquisite sculpture, breathtakingly beautiful.
"Why are you here?" Lu Xi asked.
"Huh? Am I not in my room?" He got up in a daze, and his nightgown slipped off, revealing one of his snow-white shoulders.
Lu Xi had a headache. Did he know that lying on a woman's bed like this was very dangerous? Fortunately, she was not someone else.
"You don't know?" She helped him straighten his collar.
"Hmm." He tilted his head blankly.
Lu Xi remembered that he had sleepwalked before, and he cried and talked in his sleep, almost strangling her neck. Could it be that he sleepwalked again last night? She would ask Yuan Mu if he could cure this problem someday.
Yuan Mu is in a very bad mood now. Although he knows that the mermaid is a lunatic, when he sees the silly boy suddenly turn into a clingy goblin, his face looks like he has eaten shit.
"Ms. Lu Xi, drink some milk."
A glass of milk was pushed in front of Lu Xi. After drinking half of it, Lu Xi felt a little bloated. Her body was very strange. The food she ate would disappear automatically and she never needed to go to the toilet. Although she could taste the food, she always felt that it was a waste of food.
"Don't want to drink anymore?" He heard Lu Xi put down the cup.
"Um."
He picked it up and drank the remaining half cup, then noticed a dissatisfied look and knew Yuan Mu was looking at him.
Under the other person's gaze, he licked the edge of the cup, where Lu Xi had drunk. Yuan Mu's face became even gloomier.
"Lu Xi." Yuan Mu could no longer bear it. Could it be that this merman had been pretending for the past few days? "What's going on?"
Lu Xi just remembered that Yuan Mu was sitting next to her. She had not yet explained the situation of the mermaids to Yuan Mu because Yuan Mu always knew too many things. Today, Arsenal changed his personality, but she didn't think of explaining it to him clearly. Could it be that there were times when he didn't know anything?
"Dual personality?" Yuan Mu frowned after hearing Lu Xi's explanation. He stared at the merman and saw that his upper body was leaning lazily on Lu Xi as if he had no bones. He looked uncomfortable no matter how he looked at it.
