I woke up to find myself as the villain's older sister.

Yun Qingyi lowered her eyes and looked down at the wall clock in her hand, its hands still turning.

The "tap tap tap" sound didn't seem out of place amidst the mermaid princess's incessant chatter.

This entire event clearly revolves around the mermaid princess.

Rather than saying Tuso is the key figure, it would be more accurate to say that everyone connected to the mermaid princess is a key figure.

Yun Qingyi narrowed her eyes, recalling the people the mermaid princess had mentioned in the room, besides those so-called superiors and her father.

The story also mentions Liang Jiao, a man we already know from the story, who is also the easiest to overlook. After all, at this point in time, the Mermaid Princess has already been given to Tu Suo as a partner by the Mermaid Emperor, so Liang Jiao should have already left the West Sea.

So she never paid much attention to this person, simply using him to measure time points.

However, judging from the mermaid princess's description of him and the admiration she showed, he was not as simple as he seemed.

Therefore, the key figures in this incident are probably Tu Suo, the Mermaid King, the "people above", and Liang Jiao.

"So, senior, don't be fooled by Tuso's appearance!" After sorting out the key points in her mind, Yun Qingyi looked up and saw the mermaid princess speaking to her with a serious expression.

"Okay, I understand. Thank you for reminding us. We'll be careful," Yun Qingyi said with a smile.

He then casually asked the person he had just thought of: "By the way, do you know Liang Jiao?"

Upon hearing this name, Yun Qingrou and Ji Zhaoze looked at Yun Qingyi with some surprise.

The merman princess's eyes lit up instantly, and two blushes appeared on her face: "Senior, are you referring to the most beautiful male merman in the merman race?"

"Hmm... if I'm not mistaken, she's probably talking about her," Yun Qingyi said, noticing the mermaid princess's obviously unnatural expression, and asked, "Do you like her a lot?"

"Of course!" the mermaid princess exclaimed excitedly upon hearing this. "Liang Jiao is the most handsome mermaid; everyone would love him!"

"Is he prettier than that Tuso?"

"Senior, how can you compare Tu Suo to Brother Liang Jiao? They can't be compared at all. To compare them is an insult to Brother Liang Jiao!" the mermaid princess said angrily, rolling her eyes several times when she mentioned Tu Suo.

"That's so exaggerated?" Yun Qingyi clicked her tongue in surprise.

"Senior, do you also know Brother Liang Jiao?" After complaining about Tu Suo again, the mermaid princess suddenly asked Yun Qingyi.

"I know him, but I don't know him personally," Yun Qingyi said truthfully, confirming that she only knew this person.

"Ah...is that so..." Upon hearing this, the mermaid princess looked somewhat disappointed.

"what happened?"

"It's nothing, senior. I just thought you knew where Brother Liangjiao was." The mermaid princess raised her small face and said, but she quickly lowered it again, looking a little sad: "I haven't seen him for a long time."

After saying that, she continued angrily, "If it weren't for Tusuo, Brother Liangjiao wouldn't have left!"

"It's all that scoundrel Tuso's fault! That so-called clan treasure was clearly broken! He insisted that Brother Liangjiao broke it!"

"Now that Brother Liangjiao has finally been defeated by the entire clan and escaped from the Merfolk, he must be overjoyed in some dark corner!" The Merfolk princess said through gritted teeth, her teeth grinding together.

You can tell how angry they are just by listening to their voices.

Yun Qingyi listened silently, feeling somewhat moved; Liang Jiao's hidden role in the story was surprisingly extensive.

If she hadn't asked that question, she might never have known the relationship between Liang Jiao, the mermaid princess, and Tu Suo.

Ahem… Yun Qingyi coughed lightly, interrupting the mermaid princess’s irrelevant cursing of Tu Suo, and said softly, “What is that clan’s treasure? Could you tell me?”

Upon hearing this, the mermaid princess hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "Yes, that's fine. Anyway, this treasure has already left with Brother Liang Jiao, so it's okay to tell the seniors."
