- Chapter 3: Treasure coin The sea was turbulent, while beneath the depths, the ocean remained calm. A weary deep-sea turtle was dragged back to the same spot for the thirteenth time by the mermaid, its patience exhausted. It bit down hard on the mermaid's hand, making him snap out of his daze, finally feeling the pain as he cried quietly by the coral. "Ouch." Before the mermaid could speak, an orange grouper, circling the coral, could no longer watch and spoke up, "You're being too much. Doβ¦

- Chapter 4: Little mermaid βA chocolate coin?β Lu Xie blinked, fully awake now. This was getting ridiculous. If this guy could find actual gold coins, why was he parading around in a seaweed belt? The clueless mermaid tilted his head in confusion. He didnβt know what "chocolate coin" was, but he hummed uncertainly, afraid Lu Xie wouldnβt accept his gift. To emphasize his sincerity, he leaned forward, practically shoving the coin into Lu Xieβs face. The coin hovered so close that Luβ¦

- Chapter 5: FoamΒ For a fleeting moment, Lu Xie thought heβd been tricked by this idiot. Assuming the other was crazy, heβd lowered his guard and not only given away his real name but also failed to get one in return. Who would believe he didnβt have a name? What kind of fool did he take him for? Since the other party refused to speak, Lu Xie wasnβt about to press further. He sneered coldly, his lips curving up mockingly. Β The mermaid felt a sharp edge in Lu Xieβs gaze.β¦

- Chapter 6: Maybe if he kissed first? Lu Xie admitted to himself that the mermaid was the innocent victim here. He had vented his frustration at him because he couldnβt reach Lu Hui. But he would never say that out loud. He was the cold, merciless bounty hunter, and even when he was wrong, he wasnβt wrong. He snatched the gold coin from the mermaidβs hand and turned to walk into the shop. Without looking back, he could hear the mermaidβs footsteps following on the sandyβ¦

- Β After finally settling down and with Hai Sanβer eating his meal, Lu Xie thought he might fix something for himself too. But just as he stepped into the kitchen, he heard Hai Sanβer calling his name like a haunting wail. βLu Xieββ Was this fish doing it on purpose? The way he dragged his tone so long, it almost sounded like his brain had been waterlogged from years in the sea, leaving even his speech to ripple with imaginary waves. Β Lu Xie clicked his tongue,β¦

- A small figure, about the size of a palm, with delicate features like a porcelain doll. Its brows and eyes were clear, and its expressions were lively. A vibrant life unfolded in front of Lu Xieβs eyes, causing his blood to boil, and a sour feeling surged from his throat. He desperately suppressed the turmoil in his heart, but his body still couldnβt help but tremble slightly. βWhat should we do now?β Lu Xie, for the first time, didnβt know what to do. He lowered his voice and cast a pleadingβ¦

- "I think your memory isnβt that great either, speaking without thinking. What a load of nonsenseβif it were just you, your mermaid species wouldβve been extinct a long damn time ago." Lu Xie remarked, his hands never pausing as he spoke. He repeatedly rinsed the fish tank until satisfied it was clean. Afterward, he attached a hose to the faucet and began filling the bathtub with water. Β Hai San'er didn't take offense at Lu Xie's blunt tone. Instead, he patiently explained, "Our species isβ¦

- After hearing the news, Hai Sanβer had been in low spirits. As soon as night fell, he went upstairs early. It seemed that Hai Sanβer wouldnβt be heading back to the sea tonight. Lu Xie closed up the shop and went upstairs to find his fish. When Lu Xie entered the room, he saw Hai Sanβer lying on the bed with his back turned. Closing the door behind him, he approached the bed. βAsleep already?β βNo,β came Hai Sanβerβs muffled reply. Only when he felt Lu Xie lie down beside himβ¦

- Β "Do you even know what you're saying?" Lu Xie raised his eyes, staring expressionlessly at the merman in front of him. According to Hai San'er, he was still in his mating season, which meant he needed to engage in mating to nurture and grow pearls. Β But as a perfectly sane human, Lu Xie remained skeptical of Hai San'er's explanation. Even if he believed it, there was no way he would mate with a merman. He wasnβt insane. Β Hai San'er, however, knew exactly what he was saying. Heβ¦

- As Hai San'er said, only the power of gentleness could make the little pearl open its heart and grow strong. After this interaction, every time Lu Xie changed the water for the pearl, it would voluntarily emerge from its shell. Β The rooftop had a laundry area. Lu Xie blocked the drain, placed the pearl and the little fish together in the water, and used a brush to scrub the shell of the deep-sea spirit thoroughly. Β The pearl enjoyed spending time with Lu Xie during water changes. Itβ¦
