I am just an ordinary person! Why do you like me?

On the way home, Shi Chenchen was still a little reluctant to leave.

She sat on the side of the car and looked through the window at the manor that was getting farther and farther away.

A wave of bitterness surged in his heart, and Shi Chenchen lowered his head, his eyes full of reluctance.

Wen Zhi also noticed Shi Chenchen's expression in time and said, "Are you reluctant to let go?"

Shi Chenchen nodded with red eyes.

It took her a long time to see Aunt Wen and the others. Although they didn't meet often, they could make her feel the warmth of home every time.

It allowed her to find the family love she had lost again.

Now that Wen Zhi was by his side, Shi Chenchen barely felt less miserable.

Wen Zhi gently held Shi Chenchen into his arms, and he looked at his sister in his arms with heartache.

Wen Zhi had a faint scent of ebony on his body, which was like a mixture of emerald green and transparent pine needles and crushed bitter hazelnuts.

It is a warm and clean scent mixed with a slightly bitter woody note.

Shi Chenchen smelled the familiar scent and felt particularly at ease.

The person holding her was her brother, with whom she had an inseparable blood relationship.

She could trust him completely.

So Shi Chenchen gradually fell into a deep sleep in Wen Zhi's arms.

...

"Cuckoo-"

It was the clear cry of a seagull, high-pitched and shrill.

The cries of seagulls were very penetrating, gradually waking up the sleeping Shi Chenchen.

Shi Chenchen's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he slowly opened his eyes. The sky of another world was reflected in his beautiful amber eyes.

Looking at this strange world, Shi Chenchen didn't feel afraid at all, as if she had been born here a long time ago.

This is where?

Shi Chenchen looked at her soul floating in the air, and now she looked around in panic.

This place is surrounded by endless ocean, and under the reflection of the dreamy blue-purple sky, the sea also appears to be a golden blue-purple color.

It is sunset now. When the last ray of sunlight gradually disappears below the sea level, the mist on the sea surface gradually rises.

The purple-red afterglow shines on the tranquil sea, and the golden light and the blue-purple waves interweave with each other.

There are huge blue whales under the sea that make long and low whale calls. It only calls softly, but the sound waves can travel hundreds of kilometers away.

From time to time, there are many strange luminous creatures surrounding the seabed, which embellish the waves into a long galaxy, like a dream.

It is like a romantic fantasy in a fairy tale, and also like gradually entering a dream.

There are actually mermaids leaping above the sea surface, their scales reflecting the afterglow, refracting magical colorful light.

They seemed to be organized and were swimming quickly in one direction.

At this time, Shi Chenchen found that he could control his body.

She controlled her spirit to float in the sky, and then she found herself in another world.

In this world, there are the churning sounds of the waves rising and falling, the ethereal and melodious singing of mermaids, and from time to time a few seagulls leap from the sky, leaving behind only their long cries lingering in the air.

Shi Chenchen floated aimlessly in the air, following the direction the mermaid was moving.

Slowly, she discovered a golden orange edge at the edge of her vision.

Looking closer, I saw that there was an isolated island there.

When Shi Chenchen floated over, she gradually heard strange music, which came from the isolated island in front of her.

All the mermaids swam quickly towards the island, following the music on the island.

The mermaids' songs on the sea are basically meaningless humming.

And the song on the island -

It was clearly a different language, but when she heard it the meaning of the song seemed to need no further translation.

Shi Chenchen was surprised to find that he could actually understand.

The singing became more and more obvious as the distance got closer.

The more Shi Chenchen listened, the more he felt that the melody of the song seemed to have some kind of magical power.

Listening to the song, it seems as if the soul is cleansed and the whole soul is sublimated and redeemed.

Shi Chenchen looked down and discovered that her spirit in this world seemed to be gradually stagnating, which should have been further consolidated.

What a magical singing voice.

Moreover, the singing seemed to have some kind of temptation, attracting Shi Chenchen to involuntarily float closer and closer to the singing.

Not long after, we finally arrived.

Shi Chenchen arrived above the deserted island, but she didn't expect that the island was much larger than she had imagined.

She looked down and around the bay, which was a corner of the isolated island.

There are many reefs on the golden beach of the deserted island.

The reef was full of mermaids, but they were not singing at this time. Instead, they all had very intoxicated and happy expressions on their faces, listening to the mermaid in the center playing the old piano and singing.

It turns out that the strange singing I just heard came from here.

Shi Chenchen realized that perhaps the singing of the mermaid in the middle could attract other mermaids to come closer.

The mermaid in the middle is now on a simple temporary table, like a stage.

The stage is made up of stones of appropriate sizes stacked one by one, and then soft hay is evenly spread on the stones, and the top layer is covered with the most delicate and smooth bird feathers.

It seems that the mermaids around are very respectful of the mermaid on the stage. It is obvious that they have built this stage with great effort just for the mermaid in the center.

As for that stone, you need to go to the beach to find a large number of stones of the same size, and then stack them up to form the foundation.

The hay on top needs to be carefully collected in the forest on the isolated island.

The top feathers are even harder to come by, requiring the mermaid to seize an opportunity on the surface of the sea in order to leap high enough to catch a low-flying bird in the sky.

The lower body of these mermaids is a fish tail. I guess they spent a lot of effort to build this simple stage.

Not to mention the piano in the center of the stage, which was probably carried out by these mermaids with great effort from some dilapidated ship that had unfortunately hit a reef.

Shi Chenchen floated in the air, listening to the mermaid's distant and mysterious singing. The singing was melodious and graceful, echoing in the isolated island and the waves.

The meaning of the song is like an invisible prayer or the recitation of an unknown poem.

Shi Chenchen also inexplicably had an urge to get closer to her.

The closer she got to her, the heavier her soul seemed to become, as if her body was gradually solidifying.

Shi Chenchen didn't notice it from a long distance in the sky, but when she got closer, her eyes widened in surprise.

She then discovered that the mermaid standing on the stage was different from the other mermaids—

She has precious legs.

Those legs are as delicate and white as those of humans, allowing creatures to walk freely on land.

At this time, the mermaid on the stage had her back to her and to all the mermaids.

It seemed as if she didn't want the mermaid on the rocks to see her true appearance.

Shi Chenchen quietly watched the mermaid playing the piano and singing.

Gradually, she became curious and wanted to see what the mermaid singing on the stage looked like.

She controlled her body and wanted to get to the mermaid.

Suddenly, the mermaid's long, pointed ears twitched a few times.

Seeing this, Shi Chenchen also stopped.

The mermaid who had been singing with her back to the crowd suddenly stopped playing and singing.

The mermaids on the reef were also calling softly, their voices small and short, as if they were anxiously discussing with each other, asking their companions what was happening and why she stopped singing.

The mermaid in front of me stood up and moved her legs that had been hidden under the piano.

Turn around slowly.

The mermaid's beautiful and delicate face gradually appeared in front of the mermaids and Shi Chenchen.

But the moment he saw the mermaid's face, Shi Chenchen was stunned.

This face——

It's exactly the same as her.
