The Prince and the Little Mermaid
A single touch.
The youth straighten his body. and his glistening eyes fell upon the girls lips, his expression inexplicably dark.
Yu Chu dazedly caressed her lips.
At this very moment, she felt like her brain was a half-beat behind. The feel of the youth"s beautiful lips finally emerged—— it was soft and sweet like cotton candy, yet also tender and smooth like jelly.
It was a really good feeling……
But——
Her eyes widening in surprise, she covered her lips and unsteadily moved back a few steps. With her heart incessantly thumping in her chest, she stuttered, unable to complete her words:
“You, you……”
The light in Anmore"s eyes dimmed.
Her reaction…… che.
……it was really unpleasant.
He turned his head slightly, looking towards the clear and crystalline sea that was dimly lit under the light of night. There was as if a slightly gloomy mood rising up from within the light.
Soon after, he simply turned back to look at her. Lightly blinking his eyes and tilting his head slightly in a somewhat puzzled manner, he asked in soft and sticky voice: “Rian…… what"s wrong?”
His altruistic expression could not be more natural.
Yu Chu"s heartbeat gradually calmed down—— he must have thought that kissing the lips was something that can be done between friends……
Well, for Westerners, this kind of contact may represent a kind of etiquette, or maybe a pure expression of affection……
Especially for the innocent Little Merman, he still does not know the meaning behind this kind of kiss……
Yu Chu touched her lips, then shaking her head, she stared into the eyes of the youth and solemnly said: “In the future, can"t do this kind of kiss with other people, okay?”
The youth, in an instant, was slightly at a loss for words.
The indifferent and gloomy light in his eyes that came after having seen her previous reaction converged slightly at this moment. Hooking up his lips and suppressing the secret happiness, he embarra.s.singly pouted and whispered:
“Then…… can I do it with Rian?”
Already deliberately teasing.
The girl instantly blushed and gave him a look:
“……that"s also no good.”
Already expecting this kind of reply, Anmore was not disappointed. The fact that she would try to teach him as to not be close to others was already beyond his expectation.
In a good mood, his eyes curved as he raised his delicate lips into a smile. “Then…… good night, Rian.”
The Little Merman dived into the sea. His beautiful blue fish tail drew a graceful arc while his fair body was faintly discernible under the water"s surface. Yu Chu could only see his long ice blue hair as the water rippled.
Even if there was only a shadow, the water pattern rippling across the sea water was still amazingly beautiful.
In the end, she couldn"t help but touch her lips again.
……
Recently, the matters in the kingdom have become somewhat troublesome.
The King was an absolutely outstanding politician. After learning that Princess Delina was interested in his ‘son", he actually proposed the idea of marriage.
For the kingdom, this would have indeed been a very good choice—— that is, if Rian was not a woman.
As the Prince, Rian certainly knew that she couldn"t go to the king. So, Yu Chu simply went to find Delina instead to directly open up about her female ident.i.ty and hope that the other person would change their mind.
Doing so like this was obviously the most sensible.
Out of the two mission Yu Chu had in this plane, the first, which was to gain the recognition of the Lord G.o.d"s soul fragments, was already completed. The Little Merman"s kiss, regardless of whether it was out of friendship or familial affection, either way, it represented his recognition.
As for the second mission, to cancel the engagement and marry a boy—— she firmly believed that as long as she revealed her gender, completing the mission will not be a problem.
However, Yu Chu never imagined that Princess Delina would only look pale for a moment then bit her lips and said: “……It doesn"t matter, I don"t care.”
Yu Chu: ……Excuse me?
