The air was tense, almost crackling, as Lu Xie and the mermaid exchanged a heated argument. Moments ago, they’d been at each other’s throats—now, the mermaid stood ankle-deep in the water, his shimmering tail suddenly manifesting, throwing both their rhythms off-kilter. For a creature of legend, even he hadn’t expected to slip back into the water so impulsively. Still, the little “baby” was back, thanks to Lu Xie. Perhaps it was best to let things cool down for now. “This time,…- 85.9 K • Completed
- The mermaid noticed Lu Xie staring at him. Straightening his upper body while keeping his knees in a kneeling posture, he asked, “What’s wrong?” Lu Xie couldn’t very well admit he was pondering whether the mermaid could be sold for cash. Running a hand through his hair, he blurted out a random excuse, “I was wondering what you eat. Do you eat fish feed?” He had previously fed the mermaid his own meals, but now that he realized how precious this mermaid was, he figured…

- 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 Xie’s 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 couldn’t help but tremble slightly. “What should we do now?” Lu Xie, for the first time, didn’t know what to do. He lowered his voice and cast a pleading…

- After hearing the news, Hai San’er had been in low spirits. As soon as night fell, he went upstairs early. It seemed that Hai San’er wouldn’t 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 San’er lying on the bed with his back turned. Closing the door behind him, he approached the bed. “Asleep already?” “No,” came Hai San’er’s muffled reply. Only when he felt Lu Xie lie down beside him…

- 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. 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. The pearl enjoyed spending time with Lu Xie during water changes. It…

- “Lu Xie, look!” Hai San'er emerged from the water, splashing waves everywhere. For Zhenzhu, it was like being caught in a downpour. He was drenched and looked like a little drowned rat, but he wasn’t upset at all. His eyes were bright with excitement—fish, after all, still preferred water the most. “Be careful, what are you looking at?” Lu Xie asked, standing up. He saw Hai San'er holding a cloth bag. “What’s that?” Hai San'er swam with Zhenzhu to the rocks. Neither of them came…

- "Cola won't do, let's buy some milk instead." "A little bit shouldn't hurt, right?" "Don't eat so many snacks." "This toy isn't waterproof." Lu Xie scrutinized the items in the cart, completely unaware of Hai San'er's unhappiness. By the time he realized and looked around for him, Hai San'er had been left far behind, standing still with a puffed-up expression, glaring at him. "What's wrong?" The day of the Pisces constellation's appearance was near, coinciding with Hai San'er's vacation.…

- During the day, Zhenzhu performed synchronized swimming for his dads, showcasing his true mermaid talent. He even brought deep-sea fish to the surface to show them to Lu Xie. His tiny, chubby arms used all their strength, and his round little face flushed red from the effort. Lu Xie was worried sick, terrified Zhenzhu would hurt himself. He wanted to help but didn’t want to crush the child’s enthusiasm. Instead, he hovered around him helplessly, saying, “Alright, alright, you can put it down now.…

- “Zhenzhu, stay at home and wait. Daddy is going out to check things.” Flames were burning on the sea, and Lu Xie had not seen Hai San’er’s figure for a long time. He couldn’t just sit and wait. Little Zhenzhu saw his daddy about to leave and slammed his little fins on the fish tank. His eyes were filled with the same anxiousness as Lu Xie’s, and he wanted to go too. He didn’t want to be left behind. Lu Xie hesitated for a moment. If... if he were to leave and not come back, leaving…

- Three children were delighted with a beautiful shell they’d found by the sea. However, the shell was tightly sealed, and no matter how hard they tried, they couldn’t open it. “My dad told me that if a shell won’t open, it’s dead.” “Break it open.” “Dead? Then just throw it away.” “What if there’s a pearl inside?” After much debate, one of them suggested, “Why don’t we break it open to check?” As much as they felt it was a pity to destroy…
