Quick Wear: Don't come over here, you are looking for trouble

Xu Bai still couldn't stay on land forever, even though he didn't want to be separated from Pei Xun at all times, but his depressed spirit made him unable to resist Pei Xun's action of picking him up.

"You need to get in the water."

Xu Bai grabbed Pei Xun's sleeve and said, "I want to be with you."

He also emphasized, "Always together."

[Pei Xun's Favorability: 40]

Pei Xun didn't say anything. He just carried the mermaid step by step towards the room with the pool. Even though Xu Bai's pajamas were torn into shape when he was put into the water.

"I'll come early tomorrow."

"Really?"

Pei Xun nodded, put his hand on Xu Bai's and patted it, signaling him to let go, "You should rest early. If you can't get up, we won't be able to meet early tomorrow."

The mermaid's feelings for him were deeper than he had imagined. Pei Xun maintained an awkward posture as he leaned over the pool, watching the aqua-blue fish tail swaying gently.

He pursed his lips and looked at Pei Xun with his eyes closed. His eyelashes were a little blue and trembling.

The meaning is obvious.

To kiss.

Putting everything aside, Pei Xun really enjoyed the feeling of being loved. He had been alone for a long time, but now the mermaid made him find this emotion.

Pei Xun leaned forward and their lips touched.

The mermaid let go of her hands and dived under the water.

Pei Xun shook his head and laughed, his expression softer than he even noticed.

I didn't feel sleepy even when I returned to the room. It was already early morning and daybreak would only take a few hours.

He held the small pistol in his hand, looked at it over and over again, and finally put it under the pillow.

A pearl rolled to the foot of the bed. Pei Xun bent down to pick it up, then opened the drawer. There were a lot of pearls in it, all accumulated over the past few days. Some were round, some were pointed, some were big, and some were small. From this, one could tell whether the mermaid was crying.

Zhang Tai has encountered a lot of problems recently. Pei Xun has become a hands-off boss, and the pressure on his side has doubled. Although there are no very big projects, trivial troubles often make this young man who does not have enough experience scratch his head in anxiety.

Also...I wonder what happened to the mermaid?

He regretted every day, regretting why he asked the question in a fit of anger - Do you want to go back to the sea?

Instead, I cut off all my chances of meeting him.

Even though I knew that this was the thing the institute would not tolerate the most, I still made the mistake.

Zhang Tai had been patient for many days, and he also asked Wang Jing tentatively when he came back, but it turned out that Wang Jing had never seen the mermaid.

When I didn’t see him, I became even more panicked.

The mermaid's brilliant smile kept appearing in Zhang Tai's mind. He picked up the phone and put it down again, and finally couldn't help but dialed Pei Xun's number.

He regretted dialing the number, but the call was connected very quickly. Before Zhang Tai could hang up, Pei Xun's magnetic voice came over, "Hello."

He sounded very sober, not like he was disturbed by himself.

"Professor Pei." Zhang Tai swallowed. Although Pei Xun was not standing opposite him, he had already started to get nervous.

So I just brought up a random topic, "I want to ask about the preservation of fish specimens..."

Pei Xun frowned and remained silent. "You should have learned this before, and I remember you helped me do it, and you did a pretty good job."

Zhang Tai was a little embarrassed and speechless, "Um..."

Finally, he made up his mind and said, "Professor Pei, I want to ask about the situation of the mermaid that was fished out -" He was afraid that Pei Xun would misunderstand, so he quickly added, "You know, I am also very interested in this, so..."

Pei Xun closed his eyes and said, "The mermaid is with me, are you worried?"

"No, Professor Pei, that's not what I meant... I just think he's different from the other research samples."

Pei Xun felt uncomfortable, as if he knew that his things were coveted by others. He smiled with a fake smile, "If you are not busy recently, I will recommend two more projects to you?"

"That's not necessary! ... Professor Pei, please take a rest."

Pei Xun hung up the phone, still frowning. He looked at the time and saw that it was almost six o'clock. He had not slept at all that night.

Zhang Tai, Zhang Tai also cares about mermaids.

Pei Xun became more and more annoyed the more he thought about it. He poured himself a glass of water and then called the servant to make breakfast.

Professor Pei is a workaholic, and servants rarely see their employers for a whole day, so they usually come only when they receive a call.

The window was opened, and the open space where roses were planted was the very center of the place. Pei Xun could also see it through the window.

Liu Er: [Get up! ]

Xu Bai was really sleepy. He had climbed the whole section yesterday by himself. Now, as soon as he moved, he not only felt dizzy, but his arms and tailbone also felt swollen and sore.

Xu Bai: […Is the pain shielding turned on? ]

Liu Er: [It’s open. You are not in pain now, and you should be awake. Be careful not to ruin your character.]

Xu Bai: [The target of the attack is here? ]

The two of them were thinking about something pretentious when Pei Xun came over with a bowl of steamed dumplings in his hand, which smelled very fragrant.

Seeing that the mermaid was also awake, Pei Xun suddenly felt a secret excitement.

"It hurts." As soon as Pei Xun came over, Xu Bai complained to him and pointed to the wound on his forehead.

Still a bit swollen indeed.

The steamed bun in Pei Xun's hand was still steaming. Xu Bai pointed at it and stared at it, "That smells good."

It must be delicious if it's freshly steamed, but Pei Xun wasn't sure if he could eat it, so he just broke off a little and handed it to him.

The filling was especially well-seasoned and full of juice. The mermaid had never tasted this before. He thought that the heated shell meat was delicious enough, but when the steamed bun entered his mouth, he instantly forgot the pain.

Pei Xun didn't dare to give Xu Bai any more food.

He finished the meal in just a few bites, ignoring Xu Bai's somewhat condemning look.

After eating and washing his hands, Pei Xun carried Xu Bai to the wheelchair and said, "Let's go and see the roses."

The mermaid then remembered that Pei Xun had asked him what kind of flowers he liked. He suddenly became excited, and his tail was swinging under the thin blanket.

The roses were in full bloom in the early morning. I picked those that were about to bloom. I sprayed them with water on the same day, and they absorbed the water and opened up the next day, becoming even more beautiful and large. They didn't look like roses, but rather like roses.

But it was indeed beautiful, and Xu Bai opened his mouth, shocked by the scenery.

"Does it look good?" Pei Xun turned to face him. The handsome man in trousers and shirt leaned over slightly, came closer with a smile on his face, and asked.

"……nice……"

The mermaid was a little dazed. They were now surrounded by a sea of ​​flowers. The rich fragrance of roses enveloped him. He took a deep breath and said, "What a nice smell."

There is no fragrance of flowers in the sea, nor any lifesaver.

Looking at these vibrant flowers, the mermaid felt for the first time that life on land was also good.

——But he didn’t know that the roots of these flowers had been cut off, and their current beauty was earned at the cost of their lives.
