Quick Wear: The little girl is spoiled by the love-brained boss

Chapter 169 The Delicate Little Mermaid Who Criticizes the Overbearing Boss (5)

Just when Yu Qing was worrying about not being able to find a chance to take the "Heavenly Sound Pill", someone came forward.

I'm really sleepy, please pass me a pillow.

In order to repay this greater favor, Wen Yuci specially asked someone to buy a whole piece of newly mined diamond in South Africa and gave it to his friend's daughter Bai Xuan.

Miss Bai Xuan had some friendship with Wen Yuci because of her father. She had met him several times and had admired him for many years.

This time, in order to show his sincerity, Wen Yuci directly gave the rough diamond to Bai Xuan, although he had clearly stated in advance that this was an apology gift for not fulfilling his father's request.

This Miss Bai is overthinking it after all.

After receiving the gift sent by Wen Yuci, he hurried to Wen Yuci's manor to look for him.

At that time, Wen Yuci was playing with the little mermaid beside the water tank. After hearing the housekeeper's announcement, he frowned and said unhappily, "Why is she here? Just say I'm not here."

The housekeeper showed an embarrassed look, "I'm sorry, Mr. Wen, I told you, but Miss Bai insisted on waiting for you here."

Wen Yuci pursed his lips tightly, and his whole body exuded a coldness. The housekeeper who was hunched over beside him didn't dare to breathe. The originally warm atmosphere in the room suddenly became a little tense.

Yu Qing quietly stretched out her little hand and pulled his sleeve. The moment Wen Yuci turned his head, he returned to his gentle appearance. "What's wrong?"

The housekeeper had almost never been to this room. He only took a quick look at it on Yu Qing's first day, so he didn't know what Wen Yuci was like in front of Yu Qing.

At this moment, with his head lowered, he only heard those three unspeakably gentle words, which shocked him so much that he stood there in shock, and he almost didn't hear Wen Yuci's instructions.

Just now, Yu Qing pulled his sleeve because he wanted him to go out and take a look. After all, he was the one who took the person away.

The housekeeper had already left. Wen Yuci raised his hand and touched her head. "Play by yourself for a while. I'll be back soon."

Yu Qing nodded, being incredibly well-behaved.

In the living room on the first floor, Bai Xuan was sitting on the sofa in a delicate little dress, her fingers nervously gripping the strap of her bag.

Suddenly there was a sound of footsteps behind her. Bai Xuan stood up suddenly and turned around to find that it was the old butler who had returned.

The housekeeper walked up to her and said politely, "Miss Bai, please take a rest first. Mr. Wen will be here soon."

"Okay, trouble."

Bai Xuan was feeling very nervous. She had been secretly in love with Wen Yuci for no apparent reason. She had fallen in love with him at first sight since her father helped that poor young man for the first time.

She originally thought that the boy would stay with his father, so she was not in a hurry.

Unexpectedly, not long after that, the boy was taken back by the legendary Wen family. Only then did she know that he was the illegitimate son of the Wen family who was living outside.

Wen family, even if he was an illegitimate child, if it weren't for his father's help, she would probably never have any contact with him in her life.

Her eighteenth birthday was coming soon, and her father specifically asked Wen Yuci to help him bid for a little mermaid for her to raise. She was so happy that she thought he would bring the little mermaid to her house in person as a gift.

Unexpectedly, two days ago, his father suddenly said that the little mermaid was left behind by Wen Yuci, and in order to express his apology, he would give her a gift of higher value as a birthday present.

Until this morning, she received the South African rough diamond he sent over. It was the latest to be mined, weighing 489 carats, second only to the Cullinan diamond on the Queen of England's scepter, and its value far exceeded the mermaid's bid.

She was surprised and delighted to receive this gift. Although she did not receive the mermaid she wanted most, this more precious diamond made her heart beat faster. Is this the gift he gave her?

Wen Yuci's manor does not usually receive guests, especially in the main building. Apart from the housekeeper and servants, only Xu Cheng can come in. Therefore, he did not avoid people when decorating the pool and transporting things for the little mermaid these days.

Bai Xuan was sitting on the sofa drinking tea. When she looked up, she saw several servants carrying trays and walking into a room.

She had only casually glanced at it, but she discovered that there were all kinds of - shells?

To be precise, it's a top made of shells.

She knew instantly who it was for!

Her father told her that the little mermaid being auctioned was a female, and it would be most suitable for her to raise.

He originally thought that Wen Yuci had just kept the little mermaid for himself as amusement on a whim. After all, he had always been a man who did things his own way and based on his own preferences.

But the moment she saw that he had prepared so many exquisite clothes for the little mermaid, she became burning with jealousy. She instantly stood up from the sofa and quickly followed the servants in her high heels.

The servants were not used to having guests in their house, so they were not on guard and Bai Xuan just followed them into the master bedroom.

She was stunned when she entered the house. The layout of the entire room was completely opposite to the style outside. The walls were all painted ocean blue. There was a huge water tank in the middle of the room, and there was a balcony on the half near the floor-to-ceiling window.

In the clear water, you can see a little mermaid with a silver tail and white hair. It seems to be a little afraid of people and hides far away in the corner without moving.

Bai Xuan looked at the room, where even a small wall lamp was made into the shape of a starfish with soft light, and she was so jealous that she almost lost her mind.

If the dissatisfaction she felt before she saw the little mermaid was only because Wen Yuci had never cared about her like this, then the moment she saw the little mermaid's figure and appearance, she admitted that she was jealous to the point of madness.

Wen Yuci originally went back to the bedroom to change clothes. He always dressed casually when he was at home with Yu Qing. Bai Xuan suddenly broke in. Before he went out, he went back to his room to change into his home clothes, and then went downstairs to meet the guest after he was dressed neatly.

Unexpectedly, in just a short while, she broke into the mermaid's room.

"what are you doing?"

A sharp shout interrupted Bai Xuan's thoughts.

Bai Xuan turned around in disbelief and looked at the man who had just gotten angry at her. She knew his temper, but because of their father's relationship and the fact that the two of them had not had much interaction before, she had never faced a man's anger directly.

He clearly didn't say anything harsh, nor did he do anything. He just stood there, staring at her coldly with his black eyes.

But she could feel his overwhelming anger.

"I, I just want to see the gift you gave me."

"The gifts have been sent to your house. I wonder what Miss Bai wants to do by trespassing into your house?"

It seemed that he was too polite to her before, causing her to misunderstand him as a good-tempered man.

Bai Xuan was originally frightened by his aura, but now that she had recovered, she boldly confronted him: "Am I wrong? Wasn't this little mermaid originally your birthday gift to me? Why did you change it to a diamond today?"

When Wen Yuci heard this, his eyebrows jumped and he subconsciously turned to look at the little mermaid.

——oo——

Mermaids are mythical creatures in Chinese mythology, while mermaids are a Western legend.

Not a species, but a bit similar. I mainly wrote it based on some characteristics of mermaids. There will be some differences in details, so don't take it too seriously~
