"Elder, let me see you off."
Just as Jun Yuelan was about to stand up, Elder Xingyu stretched out his hand to stop him.
"No, I can go on my own. You young people can chat here for a while."
"Elder, let me see you off."
Xiao Jie, who had been hiding behind Jun Yuelan, came out and circled around Elder Xingyu.
"Okay." Elder Xingyu didn't hesitate and left with Xiaojie.
Jiang Li just breathed a sigh of relief when he could no longer see them.
Suddenly, a pair of cold and white arms gently embraced her.
This action really scared Jiang Li, and his heart was beating wildly.
"You...you..." She widened her eyes, her nervous and shy brain went blank, and she couldn't even complete her words.
Jun Yuelan rested his chin on her shoulder, and his cool breath evenly spread on her neck, making her feel numb and tingling.
He didn't care about Jiang Li's fear. Instead, he curled up the corners of his lips and a smile couldn't be hidden from his eyes.
"I'm so glad you're okay. I was so scared just now."
After finally meeting a female he liked, he was afraid that she would suddenly die in front of him.
Jun Yuelan's voice was gentle and her tone was very soft, which was melting her heart little by little.
She dropped her horrified expression and her features softened.
"Jun Yuelan, thank you." Thousands of words can only be combined into these six words,
"I should be the one thanking you."
"Hmm?" Jiang Li didn't understand what he meant.
Jun Yuelan slowly loosened his arms and gently held Jiang Li's fair face with both hands. He slowly retracted the sharp claws on his hands, fearing that he would hurt Jiang Li.
"I've decided that I will take care of you and the baby from now on!"
"ah?"
Jiang Li's mind went blank. He thought Jun Yuelan was just joking with him. After all, they had just met not long ago.
But seeing his eyes as clear as the sea, full of sincerity and passion, she felt that he was not joking.
But why? They had just met, why was he so nice to her? Was there some purpose?
Jiang Li didn't want to think that badly of him, but what he said really scared her.
She really didn't believe that a person without a purpose would treat her well with all his heart. What's more, the person in front of her was not a person, but a fish.
Seeing the distrust in Jiang Li's eyes, Jun Yuelan did not get angry or throw a tantrum. Instead, she explained to her seriously.
"You probably don't know, right? We mermaids are genderless at first. We don't give birth to a gender until we meet someone we like."
Hearing this, Jiang Li's heart sank slightly.
The eyes that met hers became increasingly hot.
"It was not until I met you who fell into the Sana River that I turned into a male."
Jiang Li's breathing stagnated and his pupils contracted rapidly.
"So I have decided that I will stay by your side and take good care of you and the baby in your belly."
Although he said so, what he was thinking in his heart was that it didn't matter whether this baby was mine or not. At worst, I could have a bunch of mermaid babies with her after the birth, hehehe...
Jiang Li really couldn't believe her ears. She didn't expect that the scene she saw in the TV series would actually happen to her?
But rationality still outweighs emotion, and Jiang Li quickly jumped out of this "pie".
"I don't want it!"
She had to be sober and not be seduced by beauty! She still had to return to land to settle accounts with Yan He, so she couldn't stay at the bottom of the river forever.
This cold and unhesitating rejection directly hurt Jun Yuelan's heart. She froze and turned into stone on the spot, shattered to the ground.
He didn't expect that his sincere confession would be rejected.
"You don't want to... stay with me?" Jun Yuelan pursed her lips and hesitated for a long time before she uttered these words.
Although this answer was cruel to Jun Yuelan, Jiang Li still hesitated and said yes.
"I'm sorry, I still want to go back to land..."
Before Jiang Li could finish his words, he saw Jun Yuelan fall to the ground and roll over.
"No, no. I want you to stay by my side forever..."
This action forced Jiang Li to hold back his words.
Looking at the childish Jun Yuelan, Jiang Li felt helpless.
"Sister. Can you please not abandon me?" Jun Yuelan came forward, held Jiang Li's small hands tightly with both hands, and looked at her pitifully with tearful eyes.
"Ah? Sister?" Jiang Li was stunned by this sudden address.
Jun Yuelan sniffed hard and said aggrievedly, "We mermaids will only love one person in our lifetime. If our partner abandons us or dies, we will stay alone in the deep sea and be unhappy until we die."
Jiang Li was stunned.
There is only one sentence in my head.
Are you all playing so cruelly?
"Sister, you don't want to make such a handsome and cute little fish depressed, right?"
His eyes widened and more tears gathered in his eyes, as if they would fall at any second.
Handsome, these two words are indeed correct to describe him.
But cute...
He is flattering himself too much!
Jiang Li, who had originally been more rational, quickly let his emotions take over after hearing his words and his expression.
It must be said that Jun Yuelan is indeed very good at grasping her weaknesses.
A little bit of grievance and pity can make her unable to be cruel.
Jiang Li sighed, never mind, he really was defeated by him.
"Okay then, I promise to stay here."
