Chapter 14
The villain was resurrected for the seventh time (14)
The address of "little sister-in-law" and the handful of snacks that Yu Xiao held made Yu Shasha very happy.
In addition, the various entertainment facilities in the house also attracted the little mermaid's attention, and Yu Shasha quickly became immersed in the world of cartoons and teen idol dramas. When she saw something exciting, her tail would wag back and forth, which was very cute.
Close the screening room door and let the little mermaid watch the film by himself.
Yu Xiaocai pulled Yu Tang's water tank and walked towards their bedroom.
The furnishings in the bedroom are still the same as before.
The cleaning lady that Xu Lanzhe hired was only responsible for cleaning up the dust and did not touch anything.
This includes the diaries and lyric books that Yu Xiao had rummaged through back then, which were on the ground.
“After the war, I lost my memory for a period of time.” Yu Xiao bent down to pick up the lyric book and said, “I was originally a smiling robot, only capable of smiling. It was only after meeting you that I gained other emotions.”
But after that period of amnesia, I couldn't even laugh anymore; all my emotions vanished.
He turned to look at Yu Tang.
"Tangtang, you're a thief. You stole all my feelings and emotions. Without you, I've become a real monster, unable to find any meaning in my existence."
"But thankfully, you're back." He held Yu Tang's hand. "This time, we'll both be alright. I'll stay with you until we're old. During that time, I'll try my best to find a way to die. This time, I won't let you be alone on the road to the underworld."
His words were resolute.
His eyes also gleamed with deep worry.
While others fear death, Yu Xiao craves it.
He knew that even though Yu Tang was a relatively long-lived merman, he would eventually run out of energy and die.
He didn't want to live alone in this world after the other person passed away.
He no longer wanted to be a monster; he just wanted to be an ordinary person who could accompany his beloved to eternal rest.
Yu Tang did not refute his words, but instead reached out and gently flicked Yu Xiao's forehead with his finger.
"Okay. This time, we will definitely not leave anyone behind like last time."
Even if we have to leave, we'll go together.
Yu Xiao touched her forehead, pursed her lips, and nodded.
A moment later, as if remembering something, a mischievous smile appeared on his lips.
He handed the lyric book to Yu Tang and said, "Tang Tang, tell me the truth, do you miss my singing?"
"Would you like me to sing for you?"
Yu Tang didn't notice anything amiss at first, and instinctively said, "Sing, I want to hear you sing that song for me by the sea..."
But the next moment Yu Xiao interrupted him, singing with a smile: "I don't want a coat, I don't want a shirt, I just want to hug you without any barriers;
No trousers, no leather shoes, I just want to sink into your long, straight legs…
"Or should I tear off the ribbon, unwrap the candy, wrap it around my tongue, eat it, and let the sweetness spread? Is that your tempting taste?"
Yu Tang's expression suddenly changed.
It had been so long, and Yu Xiao had been so well-behaved these past few hours, that he had forgotten that this kid was actually a scoundrel!
Moreover, in the two years they've been together, of all the songs Yu Xiao has composed, only the one by the sea is truly normal!
He blushed every time he heard the others!
“Speaking of which, I remember now.” Ignoring Yu Tang’s flushed face, Yu Xiao continued, “Tangtang, you are a mermaid now. I’ve heard that mermaids’ tears can turn into pearls, and their singing voices are like heavenly music.”
"So, here are the lyrics, and I'll teach you the melody." He showed Yu Tang a lyric book that was big enough to be pixelated: "How about you sing it for me from now on?"
"No..." Yu Tang was about to refuse immediately.
Yu Xiao then tugged at his hand and pleaded, "Please? Please, Tangtang..."
"Brother Tangtang..."
Yu Tang: "Okay, just once."
At this moment, he lost completely.

Upon hearing Yu Tang's agreement, Yu Xiao cheered, so happy that she almost jumped up on the spot.
But he did not force Yu Tang to start school immediately.
After all, he knew that Yu Tang was thin-skinned and the kind of person who would regret saying something suggestive afterward.
It's already a big favor that they agreed.
"Then consider this our agreement." Yu Xiao wrote this down in her notebook, then gathered up the scattered pages, and finally reminded Yu Tang again, "You absolutely cannot go back on your word!"
Yu Tang thought to himself: Thank you, but I'm already starting to regret it.
After Yu Xiao finished tidying up the house, he received a message from the messenger that Her Majesty the Queen had invited him and Yu Tang to attend the Second Prince's engagement banquet.
This is also an opportunity to let everyone know about the two's return.
“There are still three days until the engagement banquet.” Yu Xiao looked Yu Tang up and down and said, “My suggestion is to not let them know your identity as a merman for the time being.”
“I asked Xu Lanzhe, but he didn’t mention that you are no longer human.”
"The status of merfolk in the Oro Empire is the same as my status on Cesc back then."
Even if the Queen has no prejudice against you, it doesn't mean others will accept your new identity.
Yu Tang said he understood.
Yu Xiao added, "I did this for the sake of those nobles and citizens of the empire."
"After all, once your identity is exposed, if they dare to harbor disloyalty towards you, then I cannot guarantee that I will show them any mercy."
In Yu Xiao's eyes, this general position was dispensable.
If Yu Tang is doing well, he will abide by the law; if Yu Tang is threatened or persecuted in the slightest, he will immediately lose his mind and kill anyone who gets in his way.
"Yes, I know." Yu Tang patted his head, and Yu Xiao immediately put away the fierce look in his eyes and became a good boy again.
Holding Yu Tang's hand, she said, "So let's start our special training from now on."
"What kind of special training?"
Yu Xiao replied with shining eyes, "It's special training to help you readjust to the human body."
For the next three days, Yu Tang experienced the painful rehabilitation life of a person with disabilities.
Even with Cheng Luo's experience from that world, she still couldn't help but feel uncomfortable now.
Yu Xiao, in particular, became addicted to it.
Every day, she would squat in front of him, open her arms wide, and say with a radiant smile, "Tangtang, be good, come here..."
"Go Tangtang... You can do it!"
"Tangtang is great! She walked twenty extra steps today..."
Yu Tang felt as if this kid was raising him like a son.
Because of those words, it would be perfectly natural to call him "son" instead!
After struggling through most of the room, Yu Tang's legs gave way, and Yu Xiao caught him in her arms.
The other person's hand stroked his back, which was covered in a silk bodysuit, several times before saying, "Tangtang, if you feel too tired, you can take a rest."
Even if you can't master it in three days, I'll stand by your side, support you, and hold you; that's fine too.
"After all, the entire empire witnessed our wedding back then, and no one dared to say anything against it."
Yu Tang had gotten used to his taking advantage of her.
This silk outfit was custom-made by Yu Xiao. It's similar to a dancer's close-fitting training uniform, a pale ice blue with light purple rhinestones embellishing the edges. It's a very comfortable material with excellent elasticity.
Even if Yu Tang transforms back into a merman and dives into the water, he won't feel uncomfortable wearing this outfit at all.
But it was precisely because it felt so comfortable that she was more sensitive to Yu Xiao's touch.
Yu Xiao's breathing became slightly heavier.
A light kiss landed on the corner of her lips.
Yu Tang felt ticklish from his teasing and laughed as she spoke.
"Yes, yes, no one would dare to speak ill of our relationship. But it's the prince's engagement banquet, so we should be a little more solemn."
And I don't want anyone to see me, reborn, so vulnerable.
Yu Xiao understood his determination.
Knowing that the other person was not a weak person, I did not try to persuade them further.
After agreeing, she tightened her grip on Yu Tang's waist slightly and pressed him against her.
She called out to him in a hoarse voice, "Tangtang, actually, I kind of want to..."

The villain was resurrected for the seventh time (16)
Before he could finish speaking, Yu Tang instantly transformed back into a merman, clutching Yu Xiao's collar and feigning weakness as he said, "Xiao Xiao, water..."
One sentence completely wiped away the beautiful thoughts that had arisen in Yu Xiao's heart.
Yu Xiao quickly picked him up and placed him in the specially made water tank next to his bed. Yu Tang then lay down comfortably on his back, his lips curled up, and he secretly smiled.
Becoming a merman has its advantages, namely, it allows one to use it as an excuse to instantly shatter Yu Xiao's ideas about censoring her image.
Yu Xiao lay on the edge of the water tank. Through the water, he could see Yu Tang floating halfway in the tank. His clothes and fish tail complemented each other, making him look as handsome as a mermaid prince from a fairy tale.
"Tangtang, are you feeling better?"
