To stay afloat, the little sea turtle Shen Ying clung tightly to the whale, refusing to leave its side. As for food, Shen Ying didn't need to worry. Tiny marine creatures, such as miniature shellfish and fine seaweed, could be found attached to the whale. She carefully pecked at these tiny foods with her beak to maintain her strength.

Sometimes, when whales swim past areas dense with plankton, Shen Ying can also catch some plankton to eat, and she can't help but sigh at her wonderful life of having food served to her.

If the baby sea turtle Shen Ying swims from the southern waters to the eastern waters on its own, it may take two to three months if all goes well.

However, she was lucky enough to hitch a ride on the giant whale, and at the whale's normal swimming speed, it only took her eight days to reach the eastern sea area.

The little sea turtle, Shen Ying, watched the whale's departing figure, her short forelimbs waving in the water as she silently bid it farewell. Why silently? Because even if she shouted until her throat was hoarse, the whale wouldn't hear her; it was simply too enormous.

Silently grateful, Shen Ying began to consider how to enter the palace where the mermaid prince resided and stay by his side.

"Hey! You blind fool!" Shen Ying, the little sea turtle who was deep in thought, couldn't help but scold the other party after being knocked over and tumbled several times.

"How dare you treat me like this? Don't you know who I am?! Apologize right now!"

Shen Ying, the little sea turtle, was shocked by the other party's arrogance. Instead of feeling guilty after bumping into her, the other party haughtily demanded an apology. She sized the other party up. "Just a pretty little goldfish, what's with the arrogance? I'll just knock it over with my shell!"

Shen Ying, the little sea turtle, narrowed her black eyes, which were the size of mung beans, and sneered: "I don't care who you are! You're the one who's wrong, why should I apologize? You're the one who should apologize."

Upon hearing this, the little goldfish flicked its tail, splashing water everywhere, and angrily said, "Hmph, in this sea area, who doesn't know the name of the Goldfish Hero? How dare you, little sea turtle, talk back to me!"

"Goldfish Hero?" The little sea turtle Shen Ying seemed to be seriously scanning the little goldfish back and forth with her turtle head, making the little goldfish inexplicably nervous. It straightened its little body and stretched out its flowing, silky golden-red tail as much as possible, looking like a dream and very beautiful.

After watching for a while, Shen Ying, the little sea turtle, said as if she had finally gotten the answer, "What goldfish hero? I think he's just a bully who acts like a rude thug!"

The little goldfish was immediately enraged, "You ungrateful wretch, believe me or not, I'll make sure you can't stay in this sea anymore!"

The little sea turtle Shen Ying, refusing to back down and utterly fearless, declared, "Come on, who's afraid of who! I, Shen Ying, am not one to be easily intimidated!"

Just then, the surrounding marine life gathered around and started offering their advice.

An old crab said slowly, "Stop arguing. We all live in this sea, so let's keep the peace."

But neither the goldfish nor the sea turtle, Shen Ying, would back down, and they continued to glare at each other angrily.

The dim-witted little sea turtle, Shen Ying, was completely unaware that a huge figure had quietly appeared behind her. By the time she realized what was happening, she was already in the other's palm. The once arrogant and domineering little goldfish was now incredibly obedient, even a little fawning, rubbing against the other's elegant neck.

The little sea turtle, Shen Ying, was stunned by the other's beauty. If it weren't for the silver fishtail on his lower body, Shen Ying would have thought she was seeing an angel. His white hair was smooth and flowing, his blue eyes were as deep as the sea, and the silver scales around his eyes shimmered. His delicate and straight nose was like a carefully sculpted work of art, and his rosy lips looked incredibly tempting, making one want to take a bite.

Little sea turtle Shen Ying couldn't help but admire its outstanding appearance in her heart, marveling that the mermaid looked like a figurine doll!

"Your Highness, you've come to find me! You're the best to me!" The little goldfish made a squeaky sound that instantly gave the little sea turtle Shen Ying goosebumps.

Shen Ying, the little sea turtle, stared wide-eyed, her beady eyes gleaming with surprise. Was this the mermaid prince? Was this the mission she had been searching for, traversing the vast ocean and enduring countless hardships? She must be blessed by Lady Luck! In her heart, she prayed that, if possible, Lady Luck would help her escape that damned system that always forced her to work, and stop making her complete these messy tasks.

The merman prince completely ignored the little goldfish's whining; he simply looked at the little creature in his palm. His slender fingers gently poked the little sea turtle, Shen Ying, who was instantly flipped over, revealing her snow-white belly.

Shen Ying blushed instantly and quickly rolled over. Luckily, they were in the water, otherwise she probably wouldn't have been able to roll over.

The little goldfish, who had been fawning over the merman prince, immediately changed its tune when it saw his attention drawn to the little sea turtle, Shen Ying. It swam quickly to the prince and pleaded, "Your Highness, you mustn't be bewitched by this little sea turtle! She just bullied me, deliberately bumping into me and almost hurt me. You must stand up for me!" With that, the little goldfish looked pitifully at the prince, secretly plotting to sow discord between him and Shen Ying; it didn't want to lose his favor.

The mermaid prince, of course, couldn't understand what the little goldfish was saying.

In the ocean world, the mermaid race is very different from other marine creatures such as goldfish and sea turtles. The mermaid prince and his companions have their own unique language, which they cannot understand at all. This difference is similar to the incomprehensible language between humans and other animals in the human world.

Shen Ying, the little sea turtle, was inwardly spitting blood: "You actually turned the tables on me!"

The little goldfish glared at the little sea turtle: "Hmph! Believe me or not, I'll kill you in a second!"

Little Sea Turtle Shen Ying: "You? I, Shen Ying, will crush you with a single blow from my shell!"

……

The mermaid prince stared intently at the little sea turtle Shen Ying, but Shen Ying, preoccupied with their argument, didn't notice the glint in his eyes.

The little sea turtle Shen Ying was simply taken back to the palace by the mermaid prince.

The palace was magnificent, its walls inlaid with pearls and seashells of various colors, radiating a soft and mysterious light. The little sea turtle, Shen Ying, stared with curious eyes, looking around in awe. This must be the underwater dragon palace!

The mermaid prince gently placed the little sea turtle Shen Ying on a soft bed of seaweed, staring intently at her for a long time. Shen Ying felt a little uncomfortable under his gaze; she didn't understand why he was looking at her so intently, as if he were studying some novel object.

"Hey! Stop looking! You won't be able to see a single flower if you keep looking!" Even though she knew the other person wouldn't understand, the little sea turtle Shen Ying couldn't help but shout loudly.

"You stay here quietly, I'm going out," the mermaid prince murmured to himself, his voice gentle and magnetic.

The little sea turtle, Shen Ying, tilted her head and watched the mermaid prince leave. She then began to curiously observe her surroundings.

The little sea turtle, Shen Ying, curiously looked around. She noticed some exquisite coral sculptures in the corner of the room, each with a different shape and lifelike appearance. On the other side, there was a huge crystal ball, from which a mysterious light seemed to flow.

Near the bed, there was a row of baskets woven from seaweed, filled with colorful gemstones that shimmered with a captivating light. Opposite the bed was a glass window, through which one could see schools of brightly colored fish swimming by.

Strings of pearl curtains hung from the ceiling, rustling softly as water flowed over them. A soft velvet carpet covered the floor, embroidered with wondrous ocean patterns, as if telling ancient maritime tales.

In a prominent spot, Shen Ying also noticed a sapphire brooch. It was deliberately placed there, clearly indicating that it was highly valued. This sapphire brooch emitted a deep and mysterious light, bearing the marks of time, seemingly carrying an unknown past.
