Jun Yuelan raised one hand gently and slowly stroked Jiang Li's seaweed-like long hair.
"Okay, I promise."
Suddenly, Jiang Li seemed to think that Jun Yuelan did not have the abilities of a mermaid now, and even the mermaid pearl was in her body. It would be very dangerous to go there this time.
"Jun Yuelan, can you please take back the mermaid pearl?"
"Huh?" Jun Yuelan was puzzled and looked down at him.
The deep blue eyes seemed particularly bright in the dark night.
"With so many people protecting me, I won't be in danger. Besides, you have the mermaid pearl, so your chances of winning are better, aren't they?"
Jun Yuelan fell silent. He hesitated for a long time before nodding in agreement.
He thought that if he didn't agree, Jiang Li would probably pester her all night.
It would be better to give her the mermaid pearl after you come back.
After thinking about it, Jun Yuelan lowered his head and gently placed his lips on hers.
Jiang Li suddenly felt his body getting hot.
A bright bead with a light blue glow came out of Jiang Li's body and slowly clenched into Jun Yuelan's mouth.
His throat moved slightly.
Soon, the heat in Jiang Li's body disappeared.
She felt that Jun Yuelan had taken the mermaid pearl back.
With the mermaid pearl, Jun Yuelan instantly felt that her body was filled with strength, and her originally azure blue eyes became charming.
"Sister, when I first recognized you, I was very scared. The males around you were all so outstanding, but I have become like this. I even lost the color of my fish tail, which is what we mermaids are most proud of."
Jiang Li buried his face deeper into his chest, and patted his back rhythmically with his hands.
"I never mind these things. Don't worry too much. No matter what you look like or what your identity is, as long as you are Jun Yuelan, it's fine."
When Jun Yuelan heard Jiang Li's words, she laughed happily like a child.
"Sister, you must wait for me to come back. When I have settled all the issues, I will come back to be with you and the children."
"good."
As the night deepened, the moonlight shone through the bamboo window, dimly shining on the two of them.
When Jiang Li woke up, the people around him were no longer there.
Her belly had grown several sizes bigger, as if she was six or seven months pregnant.
Jiang Li was slightly stunned. This child was growing faster than Jiang Nian and Jun Rui.
Before she had time to think more, Jiang Nian and Jun Rui, who were sleeping on the innermost side, also woke up.
Jun Rui did not notice Jun Yuelan, and crystal tears kept rolling in his eyes.
"Dad... Dad..." He pouted, looking so aggrieved that it made people feel distressed.
"Mom, where is uncle?" Jiang Nian rubbed his eyes and asked Jiang Li sleepily.
Jiang Li reached out and held Jun Rui in his arms, coaxing Jun Rui softly, which was also a response to Jiang Nian's question.
"He has some things to take care of and will be back in a few days."
Jiang Li reached out and used his thumb to wipe away the tears that were rolling back and forth in Jun Rui's eyes.
"Don't cry, Xiao Rui. He will be back soon."
Hearing this, Jun Rui sniffed, tried hard to hold back his tears, and nodded obediently.
"Xiao Li, are you guys awake?"
Ye Chen's voice came from outside.
"Yeah, I'm awake."
"Then can I come in?"
"OK."
Ye Chen, who was standing outside, couldn't help but become nervous when he heard Jiang Li's response.
He took a slow, deep breath and reached out to push the wooden door open.
"Aunt Mei has prepared the food and asked me to call you over."
"Okay, wait a minute, I'll get them dressed first."
"Let me help you."
Ye Chen walked up without saying a word and started helping the two children put on their clothes.
He woke up at dawn and heard some noise outside. He thought that an orc who wanted to harm Jiang Li had sneaked in.
But when he went out to check, he found it was Jun Yuelan.
Jun Yuelan told him that he had to go out to take care of some things, and asked him to take good care of Jiang Li during this period.
What a joke. He would have taken good care of her even if he hadn't said anything.
After patiently listening to Jun Yuelan's instructions to him and watching him leave, he returned to the room.
After helping Aunt Mei prepare the meal, he came to call Jiang Li.
After putting clothes on Jiang Nian and Jun Rui, Ye Chen walked out of the wooden house holding them in one hand and holding them in the other.
Aunt Mei had already brought the food to the table. When she saw them coming out, she hurried forward to take Jun Rui over.
"Huh? Where's Jun Yuelan?" She stretched her head to look, but did not see him.
"He has some things to take care of."
Jiang Li didn't explain it very clearly.
Aunt Mei nodded slightly and didn't ask any further questions.
"Then eat it quickly. This porridge has been sitting for a long time. If you don't eat it now, it will get cold."
"good."
After they finished their meal, Jiang Li took Jiang Nian's hand and Ye Chen held Jun Rui, intending to take them to take a bath.
Xiaobai ran over in a panic.
"Jiang Li! Jiang Li!"
"What's wrong?" Jiang Li stopped and looked at Xiaobai in confusion.
"Ye Yao from the Snake Clan has arrived and wants to see you. The prince has arranged for him to wait in the house in front."
Hearing that Ye Yao was coming, Jiang Li looked at Aunt Mei behind her in surprise. Before she could speak, Aunt Mei spoke first.
"Xiao Li, go ahead. Ye Chen and I are here."
Jiang Li nodded slightly, then turned to look at Ye Chen, "Then I'll trouble you first."
"It's okay, no trouble." Ye Chen said with a smile.
"Xiao Nian, Mom has something to do. Can you go and soak in the water with your uncle and mother-in-law first?"
"good!"
After Jiang Li let go of Jiang Nian's hand, he followed Xiaobai and strode towards the direction where Ye Yao was.
"Ye Yao? Why are there so many males around Xiao Li?" Ye Chen pouted and complained.
Aunt Mei smiled helplessly after hearing this, "If you want to win the favor of our Xiao Li, you have to work hard."
Hearing this, Ye Chen's eyes lit up instantly and he was full of fighting spirit.
"Of course! I'm very confident!"
Aunt Mei was instantly amused by this sunny boy.
The males around Jiang Li are all very outstanding. With them protecting her, she will be safe.
On the other side, Xiaobai quickly brought Jiang Li to the house where Ye Yao was.
He stood outside the door and watched Jiang Li walk in.
The man who lived in the house was standing in the center of the bamboo house with his back to the house. He was about to see Jiang Li and his heart was filled with joy.
Squeak—
Hearing the noise behind him, Ye Yao turned around excitedly. The moment he saw Jiang Li again, he couldn't help himself and walked forward to hold her in his arms.
"Xiao Li, how are you doing here? Are you hurt?" He looked at her worriedly.
When his eyes fell on her bulging belly, his expression was dazed, and then turned into shock.
He could clearly feel the active life in her belly.
That was his child.
