But his actions were so unrestrained that Yu Tang had nowhere to dodge.
The combined psychological and physical pressures finally broke Yu Tang, and she willingly became Yu Xiao's prisoner once again...
The restaurant's female owner is a very professional businesswoman; she said she wouldn't peek and she didn't.
But not peeking doesn't mean I won't have wild fantasies in my head.
She was posting on the supertopic and writing short essays about the two Yus while chuckling to herself.
When I looked up at the time again, I realized that three hours had passed.
The two people inside the private room still hadn't come out...
The female boss's keen radar immediately detected something unusual.
She stopped the employees from disturbing Yu Tang and Yu Xiao, and waited for another three hours.
My heart was pounding with excitement, and the smile on my face was more lewd than that of all twenty-four of my aunts combined.
The employees who reported to her today were terrified, thinking she was possessed.
The door to the private room wasn't opened until 10 p.m., when the restaurant was about to close.
Yu Xiao held the unconscious Yu Tang, wrapping Yu Tang's limp fishtail tightly with his coat. His sharp gaze swept over the shrewd female boss, warning, "Just pretend you didn't see anything, and don't say anything."
Seeing the female boss nodding vigorously, he added, "I've bought the private room. We'll be dining here often from now on. I'll personally handle the cleaning and renovations when I have time. You're not allowed to touch anything."
He said this because the situation inside is truly appalling.
Moreover, he didn't want anyone else to touch the things he and Yu Tang had touched.
"Okay, okay!" The female boss's smile practically reached for the sun as she readily agreed to all of Yu Xiao's requests.
Yu smiled back at her for being so understanding.
Before leaving, I glanced at the pink writing wall that had remained in the lobby.
The female boss asked, "General Yu Xiao, is there anything else you want to write on the wall this time?"
She remembered that Yu Xiao and Yu Tang had written their wishes here, and she also remembered that two years ago, Yu Xiao stumbled and bumped into the wall, touching the words left by Yu Tang, choking back tears.
Now that the two have reunited, although she doesn't know why Yu Tangshang was able to come back to life, the female boss still has tears in her eyes and is deeply moved.
“It’s gone…” Yu Xiao looked away, slightly raised the person she was holding tightly in her arms, her chin lightly brushing against the man’s forehead, her eyes filled with the satisfaction of having regained what she had lost.
"From now on, I will tell him everything in person."
"I promise, we won't miss this time."
Chapter 32
The villain was resurrected for the seventh time (32)
Back at their lodgings, Yu Xiao put Yu Tang into the water tank next to the bed.
I stared at that sleeping face, as if I could never get enough of looking at it.
However, he also knew that he had gone a bit too far this time.
Regardless of whether Yu Tang was in merman or human form, he didn't let any of them go.
They bullied Yu Tang until he cried.
There are probably still many pearls lying at the bottom of the artificial lake, pearls that fell down Yu Tang's cheeks. He needs to find an opportunity to quickly retrieve them and store them.
Not a single one can be lost.
Yu Xiao gently nuzzled Yu Tang's cheek before getting up, going to Yu Shasha's room, and knocking on the door to enter.
He raised his hand and turned off the TV show.
"Ah! We're getting really into the exciting part!" Yu Shasha exclaimed, glaring at Yu Xiao with a pout.
Yu Xiao tapped the little mermaid on the head: "I think you've forgotten what your brother told you before we left today!"
As he spoke, he pretended to scold Yu Shasha in Yu Tang's angry tone: "Look at your eyes! If you keep staring like this day and night, you won't be a little mermaid anymore, but a complete little panda!"
"Oh, okay, okay, I won't look anymore!" Yu Shasha pouted and asked, "Why are you alone? Where's my brother?"
"He's sleeping inside; he's too tired."
"What have you been doing? You look so tired."
Yu Xiao was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and replied, "You don't need to worry about that."
He asked Yu Shasha, "Shasha, do you think the human world is fun?"
"It's so much fun! The people I met, including Brother Xu Lanze and Brother He An, are all so kind. This place is completely different from the treacherous world that Father and Mother described!"
Yu asked with a smile, "Would you like to bring your entire merman family here to live?"
"Of course I want to!" Yu Shasha's eyes lit up with excitement when she heard this. "Brother Xiao, can you really do it?"
“Okay…” Yu Xiao had already digested all the information that Mu Xinglin had given him about the Jersey Empire research base.
There was a section on research about merfolk that was very useful to him.
If we continue to study this further, it might actually be possible to allow merfolk to freely switch between human and mermaid forms.
It can even help merfolk overcome the difficulties brought about by the terrestrial environment and truly integrate into human society.
So he conceived the idea of bringing the entire merfolk clan over to continue his research. Now, while Yu Tang is still asleep, he's bringing Yu Shasha to his side. Once Yu Tang wakes up, it will be two against one, and Yu Tang shouldn't refuse.
"That's great!" Yu Shasha cheered, her fish tail splashing on the water's surface.
Yu Xiao reached out and patted her head, then stood up and said, "I'm going to keep your brother company now. You should go to sleep early too, and don't watch any more TV shows or movies. Otherwise, I might just cut off your internet!"
Yu Shasha didn't dare to be negligent. She quickly placed her hand on her chest and said to Yu Xiao with a grin, "Yes, ma'am!"
The Imperial Palace of the Oro Empire.
As night fell, after meeting with the Queen, Tang Xun returned to his room, where Mu Xinglin was waiting for him.
"My mother said that if we spend another month together and we don't get bored, we can set a date for our wedding after that month."
"I will never get tired of you."
Tang Xun's hand froze, and he turned to look at Mu Xinglin, seemingly unable to understand why he would suddenly say something so suggestive.
However, before he could ask, the other party's next sentence directly revealed the reason.
Mu Xinglin called out to him, "You little coward, do you still remember me?"
Chapter 33
The villain was resurrected for the seventh time (33)
Tang Xun's body froze completely.
He stared at Mu Xinglin's face in disbelief, his gaze practically burning holes in the other man.
"Who are you?!"
"How do you know this name?!"
"Actually, it's not surprising that you don't recognize me. After all, the me now is so different from the me before."
Mu Xinglin pressed his fingers against his neck, and his voice changed to a deep male voice.
He stared at Tang Xun, whose face was pale with shock, and said, "I am Pei Xinglin, the thief who kidnapped you for three years and was eventually abandoned by you as a stranger."
"I spent seven years changing myself. Then I infiltrated the royal family of the Weiss Empire and came to the Auro Empire in place of Princess Mulan. All of this is because of you, Tang Xun."
He stood up, pointed at Tang Xun, and said, "It's just because I want to... see you one more time."
Yu Xiao is right.
Mu Xinglin appears strong, but deep down he harbors a deep-seated inferiority complex.
Even though he knew in his heart that he liked Tang Xun, and that his feelings were so strong that he wanted to kill anyone who coveted Tang Xun.
But when it came to the moment of confession, he still hesitated.
He was afraid that Tang Xun would face him with the same indifferent expression he had seven years ago.
They said he was just being delusional.
They said that a monster like him was unworthy to be with a prince of the Oro Empire, a legitimate and noble man.
So what was on the tip of my tongue, "It's just because I like you," turned into "It's just because I want to see you."
Because if he says that, even if the other person looks at him like he's trash, he'll still be able to get away with it.
At least on the surface, he won't lose too completely.
"Now that I've seen you..." Seeing that Tang Xun didn't speak, his throat tightened, and he forced a nonchalant smile, saying, "I see you're doing quite well now..."
Thud—
Suddenly, I was hugged.
Mu Xinglin's words were interrupted.
He heard Tang Xun choke out, "You're such an idiot—"
"You idiot Xinglin, did you really believe what I said back then?"
"I never intended to abandon you!"
"You're usually so smart, how could you be so foolish back then!"
"That day they found me and said they were determined to kill all the interstellar thieves who kidnapped me. Then you suddenly appeared, and I was afraid they would target you."
That's why I pretended not to know you and said those things!
"I haven't looked for you all these years because I was afraid that my mother and older brother would find out about you and that you would be hurt!"
"And I've never thought you were ugly, nor have I ever looked down on you!"
"Seven years have passed, and I've always wondered how you've been since I left. I think if you ever appear before me again, I must apologize to you..."
Mu Xinglin listened in a daze to Tang Xun's tearful account.
The dark clouds in my heart slowly dissipated.
