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

Pei Xun's article indeed caused a sensation in the industry. Although he did not mention the specific species of "research samples", he was not the only one who was interested in mermaids.

Soon, Pei Xun received many invitations.

Some of them were pleas with kind words, while others were malicious threats - they all guessed that Pei Xun had found the mermaid and had begun using it for experiments.

The lofty-sounding request is to set up a "joint laboratory" to work together to achieve more professional and authoritative results.

I just saw a bright future and wanted to get a piece of the pie.

Pei Xun didn't care much about this. This tube of blood had brought him great benefits, and Professor Pei was eager to proceed to the next research.

Blood alone has such a great effect, what about other things?

A hand wearing a rubber glove took out two gray-white scales from a special storage box. The flesh and blood at the tail of the scales lost water and shrunk, leaving only a small part.

If blood can become so pure just because of willingness and love, then the same should be true for other things, right?

The institute has installed a landline phone, and the phone has been ringing almost non-stop. Zhang Tai has been answering calls one after another, his brows furrowed more and more.

"Professor Pei, there are too many people asking about mermaids. Will it be possible——"

Pei Xun raised his eyes and looked over, without much emotion in his eyes, "Zhang Tai, you care too much about him."

Of course Zhang Tai knew this. If it were in the past, he would have just lowered his head and remained silent. But today, the mermaid told him that Pei Xun was with him!

"Professor Pei." Zhang Tai held his left hand with his right hand. The young man was full of passion and finally couldn't calm down when he saw Xu Bai again. "I think what you did is against professional ethics. Mermaids are obviously intelligent creatures with thoughts and wisdom. How are they different from us?"

"Mermaids should not be used in such cruel research!" His voice became louder and louder, and his body trembled slightly. "You took advantage of his emotions and obtained the experimental results through deception. I don't approve of it."

Because he was too nervous, Zhang Tai scratched his palm with his nails.

Pei Xun just looked at him. It seemed as if there were two sharp knives hidden in his deep eyes. He could easily cut Zhang Tai open and examine him clearly.

A suffocating silence began to spread. Zhang Tai, a grown man, felt his legs tremble under such a gaze. He did not regret it, but was subconsciously afraid of the oppressive feeling from Pei Xun.

"Get out." Pei Xun finally looked away, "I don't need an assistant now."

Zhang Tai guessed that he would lose this job. His whole body was stiff and numb. He turned around with his head down in despair, "Professor Pei."

This time his voice was lower. "The mermaid's physical condition has deteriorated a lot. You've noticed. He doesn't belong here at all."

Emotions were like a river bursting its banks. Pei Xun sneered, "Remember what you signed."

There is a lot of data in the research institute that cannot be made public. Zhang Tai finally got in with great expectations. When he received the confirmation notice, he was so excited that tears streamed down his face. He just wanted to learn something from this genius professor.

I didn't expect to leave in such a humiliating way.

He felt a little sorry for his mother, and his eyes were red when he came out.

Wang Jing was wandering around the door aimlessly. Seeing that Zhang Tai looked unhappy, he quickly pulled him aside and asked, "What's wrong? Are you crying, old man?"

"Brother Wang." Zhang Tai gritted his teeth, "I'm fired."

Wang Jing stared and reacted for a moment, then revealed an expression of complete surprise, "You are the anti-Tian Gang!"

Liu Er: [Zhang Tai spoke well of you, and was fired by the target.]

Xu Bai: [Oh, he won’t leave.]

Liu Er typed a question mark, [They both had a falling out. ]

[Pei Xun doesn't care much about interpersonal relationships. The most he can do now is to prevent Zhang Tai from contacting the mermaid. Nothing else matters.] Xu Bai snatched the melon seeds from Liu'er. He was happy and relaxed when Pei Xun didn't come. He directly asked the mermaid to turn over and float on its belly. [What he cares about most is his career. Being the first person to try something new is what Pei Xun pursues.]

Liu Er: [Doesn’t he want money? ]

Xu Bai sighed, [Look, isn't this rich enough? ]

Indeed, I have money.

So Pei Xun is the kind of person who has money but is determined to make a career for himself.

……

When Pei Xun came out, it was already late and Wang Jing was talking to Zhang Tai.

"Professor Pei!" Wang Jing wanted to plead for Zhang Tai, but Pei Xun ignored him and simply walked past them.

He didn't want to think about anything now, he just wanted to go back and see the mermaid.

When Pei Xun came, Xu Bai felt that his expression was not right. He had a smile on his face, and he was completely different from before.

He came up and hugged Xu Bai first. Professor Pei, who was wearing a shirt and trousers, jumped into the water without any hesitation and hugged Xu Bai, calling him "good boy" and kissing his soft cheeks.

Xu Bai: [What's going on?]

The merman was stunned for a moment, then stretched out her arms and hugged Pei Xun completely.

"What's wrong with you?" The mermaid was so enthusiastic that her face turned completely red. She tried to push Pei Xun away with a little force, but failed.

"Good boy." The voice was still Pei Xun's. He put his palm on Xu Bai's face, his eyes full of joy and nostalgia. He said, "Do you still remember me?"

"On the beach." He looked down at the blue fish's tail. "I saved a fish with a blue tail."

The merman was confused. He didn't understand what Pei Xun meant. Yes, wasn't it already confirmed? He was his savior.

Xu Bai knew it this time, and at the same time he felt very regretful, "It's over, the 30% compensation is gone, and I guessed the plot wrong."

Who would have thought that there were two personalities living in one body?

Pei Xun is the main personality of this body, and most of the time, Pei Xun controls this body.

But after his younger brother Pei He was born, he appeared and began to share a body with Pei Xun.

He even gave himself a name, Pei Xu.

Pei Xu was asleep most of the time, and the occasional times he was able to control his body were mostly late at night.

Only during the few days when his parents passed away, Pei Xun was depressed. Pei Xu took control of his body. He went to the sea and saw the mermaid eating shell meat foolishly on the beach.

The sea water had receded, but he hadn't noticed yet, and his cheeks were bulging.

When I found there was no sea water around me, I got scared and kept dropping little pearls.

"Good boy." Pei Xu didn't expect that he would be able to meet the mermaid again, and he didn't expect that when he woke up he would see Pei Xun extracting the mermaid's blood.

They had the same perspective. Pei Xu felt a strong sense of unwillingness and resentment in his heart. He snatched control of this body and said a few words to Xu Bai.

Pei Xu was very unwilling to see that he was impersonated by "someone else". He had been trying to wrest control of his body back from the master personality for the past few days. Fortunately, tonight, when Pei Xun was about to leave the research institute, he succeeded.

Pei Xu said: "I saved you."

"I know." Xu Bai stared at him, still puzzled, "Why are you..."

Pei Xun is waking up.

Pei Xu hugged the merman tightly, his warm breath sprayed on his neck, "Don't let Pei Xun draw blood again, and don't agree to any of Pei Xun's requests. Be good, just wait for me——"

Seeing the confused look in the merman's eyes, Pei Xu was unwilling to let go, "I have your scales, don't let him hurt you."
