Married To The Mermen King

Chapter 11 Who do you really love?

Chapter 11 Who do you really love?

Lu Mengmeng carefully took another gla.s.s of water and handed it to Danjinos. This time, her eyes were filled with a desire to plead with him. Danjinos was relieved at last when she compromised out of consideration for the general interest.

"Lin Ruize wants to meet you alone. I guess this boy might want to tell you something. . ."

Danjinos touched his chin and made a careless movement with his mouth, while his eyes quietly surveyed the expression on the girl"s face.

"What? Really?!"

Lu Mengmeng was so excited that she didn"t know what to say. The act of pouring four gla.s.ses of water, as instructed by Danjinos, disappeared the instant she heard the news. Instead, there was a burst of silly joy she could not hide.

Lin Ruize was going to confess to herself!

Lu Mengmeng felt dizzy. She didn"t expect that this happiness would come so fast. Her long-cherished hope would finally come true soon.

But . . . wait!

"Did Ruize say where he would meet me?" Fortunately, she was still alert and looked up at Danjinos. But the discontent of the merman was already written on his face.

d.a.m.n. . . This silly woman was so happy. . . She hasn"t paid any attention to me at all! 

At this point, Danjinos lowered his eyelids and slowly glanced at her, tearing the paper into pieces neatly.

"I won"t tell you the address! But I"ll teach him for you, so that he can understand what the rules of courtship in the biosphere are!"

After the man tore up the note, he swallowed it with the water that she had given him and looked at her derisively.

"Danjinos!"

Lu Mengmeng trembled with anger. Did this fellow really know that a gentleman did not deprive others of love?

"Mengmeng, you need to be gentle. Don"t frighten Danjinos." The monitor looked at her disapprovingly and then put his snacks on Danjinos" desk in a pleasant way. "Mengmeng is too childlike. You don"t lower yourself to the same level as her."

Danjinos looked at his fiancée with a smile. "That"s all right. I have enough tolerance."

d.a.m.n tolerance!

Lu Mengmeng turned her head away and stopped questioning.

She knew Danjinos" bad temper very well, and she knew that if she kept questioning, he would become even angrier. Didn"t he say he was going to teach Lin Ruize? After cla.s.s was over, she would follow him secretly.

Think of it, Lu Mengmeng"s mood was gradually improving. Heaven never sealed off all the exits. As long as people were willing to use their brains, there would always be a way!

Nevertheless, she missed the point in all manners. Danjinos was not a human. As soon as the bell rang after cla.s.s, he disappeared from the cla.s.sroom immediately. . . Disappeared. . .

Lu Mengmeng was desperate after he rushed out of the cla.s.sroom. She could not even see a shadow of him, let alone follow him in secret.

When she was depressed and did not know what to do, she saw a familiar figure.

Wasn"t it Lin Ruize who had carried his schoolbag and hurried out of school?

Lu Mengmeng immediately caught up with him and stopped Lin Ruize before he was about to step out of the school gate.

When Lin Ruize saw her, his face immediately grew rosy red. He scratched his hair in panic. "I . . . I have something else to do. I . . . I need to go first."

Lu Mengmeng took an action that she would never forget under any circ.u.mstance. She reached out her hand in a coy fashion, and looked at him affectionately. "It doesn"t matter if you go first, but you have to tell me where you are going to wait for me. . ."

Unfortunately, while she was still speaking slowly and charmingly, and Lin Ruize, who was flushed with shame, bolted away before she finished talking.

Ah, ah, d.a.m.n dumbhead. Did you really think Danjinos would pa.s.s along the message for you?

Lu Mengmeng sighed, and glanced anxiously in the direction of the cla.s.sroom. Just looking at it, she clearly felt an electric current pa.s.sing through the top of her scalp.

Suddenly, she recalled that Lin Ruize was also a rich second generation, so he would certainly take a confession seriously. From his delay in confessing to her, it could be seen that this man must be a person who paid great attention to what many called the "ceremony feeling"—the Big Day.

Yes! Ceremony feeling!

Thinking of this, Lu Mengmeng immediately turned around and ran in the direction of the teaching building. Thankfully, Lin Ruize"s deskmate had not left yet.

"Brother Xu! Help me cope with an emergency!"

Embedded in the sea of books, Brother Xu raised his head and squinted his eyes slightly. After seeing the visitor clearly, he did not hurry to open his mouth in response. "It’s you. What"s wrong?"

"Brother Xu, did Lin Ruize tell you where he is going today after school? Or what restaurant did he order from?" Lu Mengmeng"s open mouth fired off words like a cannon for fearing of wasting time.

"Lu Mengmeng, why do you ask these questions?" Brother Xu pushed the gla.s.ses on his nose and looked at her puzzled.

"I . . . I have something very important . . . an important reason to look for him. You need to help me." Lu Mengmeng looked at him nervously. Her happiness for the rest of her life depended on Brother Xu. She hoped he wouldn"t let her down.

"Well, he seemed to have asked me if the open-air Garden Restaurant on the roof of Xingda Large Building was romantic enough, and would he be more likely to succeed if he confessed there. I think we are all students, so we can’t always indulge in love. I also taught him with the thought lesson, Lu Mengmeng. You think—?" Brother Xu said seriously. When he looked up, Lu Mengmeng was already gone, leaving him with his words hanging in the air.

"Brother Xu! Thank you very much! I"ll invite you to dinner some other day!"

Lu Mengmeng"s voice came from afar. Brother Xu scratched his ears and replied slowly, "If you could change into a calculus a.n.a.lysis, I would be happier. . ."

Lu Mengmeng, who had rushed out of the school, quickly jumped into a taxi. Time was life. Now every minute and second was related to her happiness, so she must race against time!

However, the person who wanted to race against time had never raced against the congested urban traffic on the streets.

It took ten minutes for the taxi to move three and a half meters.

"Mister, can you take a shortcut? I can pay a little more!"

The taxi driver looked at her in the rear mirror, and said, "Alas, you students are too young to know how hard it is to earn money to support your family. You don"t make money yourself, but you spend it generously. Now that the whole city is blocked, even if you could buy my car, it won"t grow wings to help you flying over the traffic jam!"

Mengmeng listened to the taxi driver"s complaints and sighed helplessly. How could she be stuck on the road like this?

Her eyes swept through the window and fixed on a bright yellow figure.

Yes! Shared bicycles!

"Mister, I want to get out!"

Two minutes later, a girl rode a bright yellow, shared bicycle, shuttling through the congested traffic.

While Lu Mengmeng tried hard to pedal, she prayed silently in her heart.

G.o.d, Buddha, Allah . . . whether you exist or not, please help me this time! Please let me encounter all the green lights along the way, and let me get to the appointed place smoothly! Please, you must help me!

Twenty minutes later.

Standing in the elevator to the top floor of the building, Lu Mengmeng gasped heavily. Fortunately . . . those lovely G.o.ds did not disappointed her and let her arrive successfully!

As soon as he stepped out of the elevator, Lu Mengmeng saw two familiar figures standing near her.

Great, Ruize was still there! She was going to hurry, and she wouldn"t keep him waiting long!

"I like you!"

The girl"s right foot just stepped on the solid floor of the open-air Garden Restaurant, and she heard Lin Ruize"s voice coming to her ears.

What"s going on?

Why did he confess before she had got there?

Lu Mengmeng looked in the direction of the two men in utter surprise. She, who had been cheerful before, slowed down her pace in an instant.

"I like you, Danjinos. Please accept my gift and fall in love with me!"

Under the shade of the open-air Garden Restaurant, Lin Ruize grabbed Danjinos" wrist excitedly as his open mouth expressed his affection. The Merman Bracelet appeared in Lin Ruize"s palm.

Why?

Lu Mengmeng held her breath in surprise and stared at the two men. She stopped her feet.

"It"s very presumptuous to say this, but when I first saw you in the clinic, I fell in love with you!"

Lin Ruize"s second sentence made Lu Mengmeng’s heart instantly fall from the height of 10,000 feet into the cold cellar.

Why?

Danjinos flicked his hair charmingly and smiled triumphantly. "So did you always pay attention to Mengmeng and get close to her in order to ask about me?"

Lin Ruize nodded hurriedly. "That"s right. In fact, the reason why I would like to have dinner with Mengmeng and do homework with her is because I know that if I invited you alone, I would be rejected. But if I invite Mengmeng, you will take the initiative to sit with us to protect your sister.

Also, I wanted to meet Mengmeng alone, in order to let her say some words of praise about me in front of you, put in a good word for me. I know that you care about her very much, so if Mengmeng speaks a good word for me, you will certainly change your view of me."

After hearing these words, Lu Mengmeng covered her mouth in surprise. Those ambiguous feelings she thought were only used by Lin Ruize to approach Danjinos.

The Merman Bracelet in Lin Ruize"s palm sparkled in the sunshine, and the silver light refracted into Mengmeng’s eyes. Her eyes were sore.

Big drops of tears rushed down from her eyes, and the flashing piece of jewelry seemed to silently mock her.

It turned out that all this was just her wishful thinking.

Lu Mengmeng slowly stepped back and accidentally knocked into a planter of flowers near her feet. The noise startled the two men, who turned their heads in surprise, but they only saw a black figure rushing quickly into the elevator.

Squatting in the corner of the elevator, Lu Mengmeng couldn"t stop choking on her emotions.

Why? Why did he not love her? Those ambiguous words, those eyes, and those nervous movements—all of it was her wishful thinking.

She was really ridiculous.

He had never said that he liked her, and the moment of tenderness he gave her was nothing more than a deliberate attempt to get close to Danjinos. But she had regarded it as true favor and sincerity.

Out of the elevator, the sunset was not as strong as it had been just now, but it still made people squint at its brightness.
