Feasibility of Mermaids Infiltrating Qilin

Long, slender, fair fingers parted the white veil, and a tall woman dressed in a dress resembling a round-necked robe stepped out of the waterside pavilion.

Her phoenix eyes were slightly raised, and her expression was full of domineering air as she had long held a high position.

"This must be Young Master Zhang Shenglin." Her phoenix eyes swept lightly over the two of them before accurately landing on Zhang Shenglin.

Su Xingze looked at the woman in front of him, his eyes full of surprise.

He blinked, looking at the tall, bright, and imposing woman in front of him with great curiosity. "Are you the commander, sister? Why did you guess he was Zhang Shenglin instead of me?"

The commander curled his lips into a smile and lowered his gaze slightly: "Of course, Zhen'er told me in advance."

"The taller, quieter one is the young man he admires, and the handsome one is his younger brother. But Zhen'er only said that you are prettier than a little girl, she didn't say that you are so sweet-talking."

"Zhen'er?"

Su Xingze glanced at the beautiful commander in front of him and, from her obvious resemblance to Li Mingzhen, vaguely guessed the relationship between the two.

I never expected Li Mingzhen to have such a powerful background. He actually has an elder who is the governor of a province behind him.

"My surname is Li, you can just call me Commander Li."

When Commander Li said this, his phoenix eyes were clearly fixed on Zhang Shenglin.

Su Xingze couldn't help but frown. Was this Commander Li paying too much attention to the little Qilin? Li Mingzhen also seemed to be paying a lot of attention to the little Qilin back then.

Are they planning to steal the little Qilin? The little Qilin is beautiful, but he already has someone to raise it. Are they trying to take it away from him?

Thinking this, Su Xingze couldn't help but look at Commander Li with a hint of wariness.

Sensing the boy's wariness, Commander Li smiled.

"Today I wanted to see what kind of boy Zhen'er would greet me so specially. As he said, he is indeed a young prodigy."

"Since Zhen'er thinks highly of you, I won't be stingy."

With a flick of his wrist, Commander Li delivered two jade bottles that landed precisely in the hands of the two men.

"This is a Body Tempering Pill, which is most suitable for cultivation by martial artists of the lower three ranks. It can also be given as a gift."

Su Xingze looked down at the jade bottle in his hand. He was no longer the clueless country bumpkin who had just arrived in this world. Naturally, he knew how precious the pills were in this world.

These two men surnamed Li have only known each other for a short time, yet they've been sending all sorts of things to the little Qilin. What are they up to? Su Xingze gritted his teeth inwardly.

Su Xingze became more vigilant and subtly moved behind Zhang Shenglin, poking Zhang Shenglin's waist to remind him not to be corrupted by sweet talk.

Zhang Shenglin grabbed his hand in return and looked back at him, puzzled.

What's wrong with Aze? Is he too tired?

He still remembered that the little mermaid had been clamoring to take a nice hot bath and then get a good night's sleep after arriving in Mu County.

After satisfying his curiosity, Commander Li did not keep the two men any longer.

But as she watched the two leave, her gaze couldn't help but fall on Zhang Shenglin, her sharp phoenix eyes softening slightly.

If her Yu'er were still alive, she would be this big by now.

The two didn't actually look alike, and their temperaments were completely different, but just looking at that calm gaze reminded her of that child.

After watching for a while, Commander Li turned around and returned to the waterside pavilion.

She was certainly not here to admire the scenery. Inside the waterside pavilion, three or four bronze mirrors stood on the table. Commander Li sat down at the table, and strangely, her face was not reflected in the bronze mirrors.

She looked at the commander in the center and bowed her head slightly: "Your Majesty, the first batch of people from Qinghao Town have arrived in Mu County."

"Let's get started." A deep male voice came from the mirror, in which a pair of sharp, cold eyes could be vaguely seen.

As members of the Tongwu Division, Su Xingze and his companion were able to stay in the Tongwu Division's dormitory for free.

Perhaps out of respect for Li Mingzhen, Li Qiao arranged a very large house for the two of them, so that the two of them did not feel crowded at all.

As soon as Li Qiao left, Su Xingze couldn't pretend anymore and clung to Zhang Shenglin's back, pitifully starting to whine and act cute:

"Ah Lin, let's go take a bath together now. I feel like a dried-up dead fish."

Zhang Shenglin, supporting the little mermaid on his back, put down their meager luggage. When he heard Su Xingze say that he was a dead fish, his lips curled up. He let go of Su Xingze's hand, and Su Xingze's body immediately slid down.

"Hey, hey?" He quickly stretched out his legs to wrap around the little Qilin's waist and wrapped his arms around his neck. "Little Qilin, why did you suddenly let go?"

He didn't care when he asked but didn't get an answer, and directed Zhang Shenglin to go into the inner room.

"Inside, inside, the bathroom should be there."

Zhang Shenglin carried him into the bedroom, where there was a small room on the side with a wooden bathtub.

After filling the bathtub with water, Su Xingze returned to its original form, shrinking to about twenty centimeters in size, and raised its tail to pat the water's surface.

"Ah Lin, come in quickly! I've shrunk so I don't have to worry about being crowded."

This bathtub is for one person, just enough for one adult.

Zhang Shenglin silently took off his clothes, while Su Xingze watched from the edge of the bathtub.

The teenager was slender, but once he took off his clothes, it was discovered that he had everything a seemingly frail boy should have.

The body lines are smooth and beautiful, neither exaggerated nor abrupt, and it is a healthy physique full of vitality.

Zhang Shenglin stepped into the bathtub, and Su Xingze wagged his tail to make room for him. Once he was fully seated in the tub, Su Xingze leaned closer with bright eyes and began to fondle the little Qilin's arms, chest, and abdominal muscles.

"Wow! Little Qilin's muscles feel so bouncy, huh? Why have they gotten so hard?" He poked his arm in annoyance. "Relax a little, Little Qilin, let me touch them again~"

Zhang Shenglin was being harassed by the little mermaid, and his face turned completely red, whether from the heat of the bath or from embarrassment.

Zhang Shenglin held back for a while, until the little mermaid became more and more outrageous, then he grabbed the little mermaid who was almost touching his chest and rubbed his long tail.

"That's enough, that's enough. If you keep rubbing, the scales will fall off."

Su Xingze was enjoying lying in the little Qilin's palm, but when his tail got a little warm from being rubbed, he curled his tail to stop the little Qilin from continuing.

He rolled over in Zhang Shenglin's palm, his long white hair falling from his shoulders and spreading out in the water. He held Zhang Shenglin's fingers, his voice soft and soothed from the bath, and commanded him impolitely: "Wash your back too."

Zhang Shenglin patiently rubbed his back.

After washing the little mermaid, Zhang Shenglin began to wash himself.

The two soaked for another twenty minutes before ending their long-awaited bath.

Back in the bedroom, Su Xingze transformed into his larger form and landed on the bed, letting out a comfortable sigh.

"It's definitely more comfortable to sleep in a bed."

When resting on the road, the quilt that was casually spread out didn't count as a bed at all.

Su Xingze glanced at the little Qilin sitting on the edge of the bed drying his hair, then snapped his fingers, and the wet hair immediately became dry.

He shifted his body further in, yawned lazily, and said in a sleepy voice, "Go to bed. You haven't had a proper rest in over a month. Don't take your youth for granted and stay up all night. Be careful you don't stunt your growth."

As soon as Zhang Shenglin lay down on the bed, Su Xingze, who was sleeping next to him, snuggled up to him.

He nuzzled against the little Qilin's neck and hugged him like a pillow.

Goodnight, little Qilin.

Zhang Shenglin placed his hand on his back and whispered, "Goodnight, Aze."
