Chapter 63 I’ve made you feel wronged
When the other mermaids in the ocean approached Nan Zhisui, Lanxing didn't panic.

When the fish waves and dust approached Nan Zhisui, Lan Xing didn't panic.

However, when Mu Yang and Chu Chen put all their effort into wanting to become partners with Nan Zhi Sui...

Lanxing panicked!

"Big sister, big brother, Nan Zhisui is my master fish, don't do anything rash!"

Mu Yang looked at Lan Xing thoughtfully and said, "Didn't I hear you two were arguing and that you wanted to break off your partnership with your female master?"

Lan Xing's expression changed drastically. He said urgently, "We haven't broken off yet. We are still partners!"

Undisturbed, Chu Chen pondered the relationship between her best friend and her partner for a while before nodding. "Yes, I think you're right."

"Let's be best friends first. If we want to be partners in the future, we can always change that."

As she spoke, Chu Chen hugged Nan Zhisui tightly again, her chest pressed against Nan Zhisui's.

Nan Zhisui: "..." Such enthusiasm is really unnecessary!

After the mermaid royal family members dragged Lanxing back to the palace, they began a meeting.

Nan Zhisui pulled Xiao Fu aside to eavesdrop outside the door.

She didn't mean to eavesdrop; it's just that she can't be more than 50 meters away from Lanxing!
Inside the palace.

The merman, Mu Yang, was rather silent.

Second Brother Luo Chuan was quite straightforward. He asked directly, "Lan Xing, is that unbelievably beautiful mermaid female outside really your master?"

Lanxing nodded. He was still very well-behaved in front of his older siblings.

Luo Chuan's Adam's apple bobbed. "Lan Xing, were you blessed by the Beast God? You actually met such a beautiful mermaid female! Your brother and I have waited for hundreds of years, and we've never met one as beautiful as her!"

Mu Yang interrupted, "What's with you trying to break up your relationship?!"

Lanxing still wanted his family's understanding. He said, "She...she abandoned her husband and children! She abandoned me and Xiaofu. What's wrong with me breaking off our relationship?"

Mu Yang, Luo Chuan, and Chu Chen exclaimed in unison, "Are you crazy?!"

Luo Chuan: "You said she abandoned her husband and children, but hasn't she come back now?"

Chu Chen: "Females are bound to make mistakes. Look at your sister, don't I often make mistakes too? It's nothing serious, so why can't we forgive her?"

Luo Chuan: "Besides, she even gave birth to your child, a female one. You know not all females are willing to have children. Don't be ignorant, look at your sister. She doesn't have any."

Chu Chen glared at Luo Chuan. "Speak your mind, don't drag me down with you."

Mu Yang blushed slightly: "Besides, she's so beautiful, it's understandable that she might be a little fickle. And besides, she's come back to you, hasn't she? What female doesn't make mistakes?"

As Lanxing listened, these words, which seemed to be comforting, only made him feel more and more aggrieved.

He was originally the little prince of the mermaid clan, and was considered the darling of the mermaid clan.

During his coming-of-age ceremony, an accident occurred, and he was captured by orcs on the shore when he was severely injured and most helpless. The orcs on the shore sold him to her with just a few blades of grass.

However, she led herself into the cave and immediately became his mate. Later, she left him a fish egg.

He was actually happy when he was with her.

He had envisioned his future life and considered how land-based and sea-based beastmen should live.

If she could settle by the sea, he could see her every day.

But she abandoned her husband and children and left directly.

After leaving, she was nowhere to be seen for five years.

He grew up as the darling of the family, he was a little prince, and he had never suffered such injustice.

He has just come of age.

Why did he suffer so much injustice, yet none of his family members felt sorry for him, and instead said he was very lucky?
If even his family can't understand him, who can?

"You all criticize me, but what mistakes have I made?"

As Lanxing spoke, tears of grievance welled up in her eyes.

"You are my closest family members, why can't even you understand me?"

"What heinous crime have I committed? Is this what I wanted? Have I wronged her?"

"Just because she's female and I'm male, she can be forgiven for abandoning her husband and children? No matter how many years have passed, as long as she comes back to me... she's considered a good female, right?"

"Why?!"

Lan Xing clenched her fists, turned her head to the side, and said sullenly, "Anyway... I'm definitely going to cut off the relationship."

Unexpectedly, Chu Chen not only failed to understand, but also got angry. "Lan Xing, don't speak so confidently!"

Nan Zhisui's heart clenched as she listened.

The Earth she inhabits is generally more tolerant of men. The same mistake, when made by a woman, is often unforgivable, but when made by a man, it is easily overlooked.

In the beast world, however, it seems to be reversed. Males commit unforgivable crimes, while females are leniently forgiven. Nan Zhisui, who grew up on Earth, can particularly empathize with Lan Xing's current feelings.

She felt sorry for Lanxing.

She touched the little mermaid's face and said, "Xiao Fu, we can't let your fish father be so sad."

Little Fu wagged her tail and looked at her with her big, watery eyes.

"Let's go and appease your father."

"Ok!"

Nan Zhisui and Xiao Fu swam in.

As the beautiful rainbow-colored mermaid and the little golden mermaid swam over, Lanxing felt a moment of panic.

"Did you hear that?" He had just said something very harsh; she probably heard it all.

After hearing what he said, will you hate him even more and dislike him even more?

Lanxing suddenly felt a pang of sadness in her heart.

He comforted himself:
...It's okay. They're going to end their relationship anyway.

"Sui Sui," Chu Chen said with a smile as she swam up to her, trying to persuade her, "My little brother is young and spoiled by his family, so he has a bad temper. Don't blame him."

"Please don't agree to break up with him."

If a male doesn't mate, he'll be alone for life, at most experiencing loneliness.

However, if one becomes a partner and is then abandoned, a piece of their soul will be missing, and they will become a wandering beastman forever.

If one becomes a wandering orc, one's mind will become unstable.

Nan Zhisui knew that Chu Chen was worried about her younger brother, so she whispered, "Sister, don't worry, I don't plan to break up with my partner."

Lan Xing pretended to be strong and turned to face Nan Zhisui. "What are you doing out here? They're all criticizing me. Do you want to make fun of me too?"

Lanxing, a mermaid who has just come of age, still looks quite small. At this moment, the corners of her eyes are red, clearly indicating that she hasn't gotten over being wronged.

“I heard you talking outside,” Nan Zhisui said softly.

"So what if I heard it..." Lan Xing turned her head slightly. "Then what do you want to say?"

He was still somewhat apprehensive.

"Lanxing, after listening to what you said, I think you're quite right... I was indeed wrong."

Lan Xing suddenly looked up at her.

Nan Zhisui humbled herself greatly. "It was indeed my fault, so please, for the sake of our adorable baby Fufu, give me a chance to make amends, okay?"

She tugged at Xiao Fu, "Baby, go and comfort your fish father."

The little golden mermaid immediately swam to Lanxing's side, planted a kiss on his cheek, and said sweetly, "Daddy, hug Fufu~"

"Also, everyone... Brother Muyang, Second Brother Luochuan, Sister Chuchen..." Nan Zhisui said sincerely, "In the past five years, I had some reasons and did not take good care of them. Now, I ask all of you brothers and sisters to give me a chance."

Every word Nan Zhisui utters here is in Lanxing's favor and on Lanxing's behalf.

In the beast world, where have you ever seen a female who lowers herself to speak up for a male out of pity?
After all, in this beast world where there are far more males than females, females are always favored and pampered. In such a growth environment, privileged females can easily become spoiled and willful.

Even if a female becomes spoiled and willful, she is easily understood and forgiven by the male.

Therefore, Nan Zhisui's act of humbly taking responsibility for her mistakes and speaking up for Lanxing immediately earned her a lot of goodwill from the royal mermaids.

The room fell silent.

Even Lan Xing seemed quite surprised.

Chu Chen chuckled and patted Lan Xing on the shoulder, "Little brother, you're lucky."

Then it swam away.

Mu Yang and Luo Chuan looked thoughtfully in Nan Zhisui's direction, then swam up to Lan Xing and whispered, "Little brother, if you don't want this female, we'll definitely take her."

After saying that, Mu Yang and Luo Chuan also left.

There were only three fish in the palace: Nan Zhisui, Lan Xing, and Xiao Fu.

Lanxing held Xiaofu in his arms, lowered his head, and turned his head to the side, whether out of shyness or embarrassment, it was hard to tell.

"Are you still angry?" Nan Zhisui asked.

With a slightly nasal tone, Lanxing asked in a low voice, "Don't you think I'm being pretentious?"

“I don’t think so,” Nan Zhisui said. “You didn’t say anything wrong. Besides, you’re the younger brother, and I’m mentally older than you, so I should be more considerate of you. And besides, I did make a mistake…”

Nan Zhisui's voice softened, and she said softly, "Lanxing, I'm sorry you had to suffer."
