Sea World of Beasts: The Sinful Mermaid - She's a Heartthrob

Chapter 12 The Beastman's Dowry

Bai Pei kept pulling Chao Sheng aside to impart her experience and lessons on how to be a good wife, from which she benefited greatly.

Half a day had passed, and after finally seeing off Bai Pei and Bai Ni's brothers, Chao Sheng flicked its tail, feeling a little tired.

Chao Sheng looked down at the pile of glittering dowry on the rock, feeling extremely worried. She slowly swam over to the pile of treasures and sat down, resting her chin on her hands, her hair standing on end in worry.

There's no room in the cave, so we'll just put it here? No way, it'll get stolen, she'll be disgusted!
Why didn't she learn more about spatial magic from her teacher back then? If she could create a small space, she could put all these beautiful treasures inside.

Bai Pei sent a lot of things, piled up like a small mountain, which was enough to show how much she doted on her son, Bai Ni.

Half of them were necklaces and bracelets made of rare pearls and gemstones. Bai Ni must have told them that Chao Sheng liked pearls and sent so many.

However, there was one gauze dress that Chao Sheng really liked, as it could perfectly cover her two big white breasts.

Chao Sheng examined each piece one by one, becoming increasingly engrossed. She touched the pearls with enjoyment, a hint of regret flashing in her eyes.

Bai Ni swam over and, seeing that Chao Sheng's expression was off, asked in a panic, "What's wrong? What's wrong? Don't you like it? If you don't like it..."

"No!" Chao Sheng quickly stopped herself. She liked them very much! Like a greedy person, she gathered the pearls around her and said earnestly in her sweet voice, "I like them very much, but the cave is too small to fit them all in."

"It's alright, if you can't put it here, just leave it here." Bai Ni looked at the exceptionally energetic Chao Sheng and felt a surge of joy in his heart. He knew it was right to send these things, didn't he? His mother even said that Chao Sheng was a mermaid who was used to these treasures and wouldn't like them. Fortunately, she listened to him in the end and sent these pearls. He had seen how Chao Sheng would hold onto the pearls and not let go.

"Huh? Won't it be stolen?" Chao Sheng was still a little worried, clutching a pink pearl the size of an eyeball in her hand, silently sighing that it would be such a pity if these were stolen.

"Hahaha!" Bai Ni chuckled, looking at Chao Sheng who was unusually innocent, and carefully explained to her, "Don't worry, no one has ever dared to steal anything from us orcas!"

After awakening his superpowers, Bai Ni became the little tyrant of the polar seas, having everything he wanted. Even his body was larger than other killer whales due to the abundance of prey, reaching a full ten meters and ten tons.

Chao Sheng glared at him, her delicate brows furrowing slightly. Who was she doing this for? It was all his dowry!

Seeing that Chao Sheng was still frowning, Bai Ni stopped laughing, a hint of murderous intent flashed in his dark eyes, and the corners of his mouth curled up maliciously. "Alright, if anyone is so stupid as to dare to steal it, then I'll just go and rob it back!" He could also take some food with him while he robbed it.

"Don't worry, don't worry." Bai Ni sat behind Chao Sheng, his well-defined fingers gently playing with her silky purple hair, a hint of contentment in his eyes.

Chao Sheng sighed inwardly. Oh well, there's no point in worrying about this. "Alright."

After barely managing to comfort herself, and urged on by Bai Ni, Chao Sheng chose some pearls and gems that she liked to decorate her little bed.

The seashell bed instantly became luxurious and extravagant, with gemstones of various colors on the outermost ring and off-white and gray pearls on the inner ring, along with soft seaweed and fragrant sea flowers, just like a princess's private little nest.

The light at the cave entrance dimmed, and Bai Ni transformed into human form and entered the cave, her sharp voice carrying a deliberately soft and sweet tone, "Sheng Sheng~"

Chao Sheng's gaze paused slightly, a slight itch spreading through her tailbone. A little uncomfortable from the sound, she glanced away, trying to hide her discomfort. "What?"

Bai Ni didn't speak, but the tips of her ears under her black hair blushed shyly. She hesitated before speaking, "I've finished stringing the black pearls, and I wanted to... I wanted to give them to you."

Given yesterday's situation, he was no longer comfortable leaving the pearl with the Black Butterfly Orcs.

After having another big meal last night, he decided to string pearls himself. However, he didn't have the same skill as the Black Butterfly Orcs and couldn't make female animal clothes, so he could only string a long chain.

Chao Sheng looked over expectantly. Bai Ni held up a long string of black pearls with his hands outstretched, his knuckles clearly defined. Chao Sheng exclaimed, "So long?"

"Let me put it on for you." Bai Ni volunteered, his round black eyes gleaming. He strode up behind Chao Sheng, the two very close. Her long, purplish-gold hair brushed against Bai Ni's strong, muscular arm, and a delicate fragrance wafted into his nostrils. Bai Ni's face instantly flushed crimson. His Adam's apple bobbed as he silently swallowed, his hand, clutching the pearl, involuntarily touching Chao Sheng's ear. "I...I didn't mean to." "It's alright." The soft female voice soothed the blushing, heart-pounding orca. After clumsily putting on the necklace, Bai Ni finally let out a deep breath. Why did the little mermaid smell so good? He had really lost control just now.

Chao Sheng looked down at her new necklace. The pearl she had initially chosen was now located at the very center of the outermost circle, dazzling and radiant.

"Wow! So beautiful!" Chao Sheng curiously fiddled with the rings of black pearls around her neck. The black pearls, set against her fair, snow-white skin, added an air of mystery and grandeur.

"Hmm." Bai Ni leaned closer to Chao Sheng and, still not believing it, took a few more sniffs of Chao Sheng's light yet alluring fragrance. The closer he got, the clearer he could smell it.

He sniffed it almost obsessively, squinting his eyes in enjoyment. The fragrance seemed to travel from the tip of his nose to his mind, stirring his spirit to merge with it.

……

As soon as Yinxu returned, she saw this ambiguous scene of them snuggling together, and a dark glint flashed in her deep brown eyes.

"Yinxu?" The light at the cave entrance was blocked, and when Chao Sheng looked up, she saw Yinxu standing there. A smile appeared in her crystal-like eyes. "Where have you been today? I haven't seen you at all!"

Infected by the radiant smile, Yin Xu slightly curled the corners of his mouth. He walked swiftly to Chao Sheng and took out a ring that he had been holding until it was hot. "Logically speaking, it should be the beast husband who delivers the dowry today."

"I never thought I would have a wife in my life, so I never... I never prepared." Yin Xu's voice trembled with nervousness and shame. He had heard that many females treated him poorly because their beastmen's dowries were small.

Although Chao Sheng was not this kind of female, he was unwilling to be inferior to beasts.

Silver fluff's eyelashes were quite unique, with a few white streaks standing out among the black ones. They were trembling nervously like fluttering butterfly wings. He thought of the piles of pearls and beautiful stones outside the cave. She must like those, right?
"Thank you, I like it very much."

A simple sentence instantly relieved Yin Xu, whose gentle and delicate face was full of seriousness. "Don't worry, I will make it up to you later."

"Tch! The dowry still needs to be replenished?" Bai Ni scoffed. If it weren't for this annoying guy interrupting, he would have already secretly embraced his wife.

"Bai Ni!" Chao Sheng glared at him, then put the ring on her middle finger; it was a little loose, but it didn't bother her.

The ring was likely made from some kind of mineral, with a beautiful yellow-red gemstone set in the center, emitting a faint white light that has gleamed with age.

After examining it carefully for a moment, Chao Sheng looked at Yin Xu with satisfaction, her eyes filled with a smile. "I really like it."

"Yes, I'm glad you like it." Yin Xu looked at the ring on Chao Sheng's hand, her eyes filled with tenderness. It was her mother's keepsake.

When he was five years old, his mother died in an accident, and not long after, his father also passed away.

He was left with only this ring.

"Silver Floss, this ring brought good luck to your mother, and I hope it will bring you good luck as well."

His father's dying words still echoed in his ears. He stared blankly at Chaosheng. His father seemed to have found his "good fortune."

He went out and searched for a long time today, originally looking for some nice things as a dowry for her, but after searching and searching, he felt that they were not to his liking, not good enough, and not worthy of her.

I went out for a day and came back empty-handed.

In the end, all he could offer was this ring; it was all he had left.
