His lips left instantly after touching hers.
The young man straightened his back as his stormy eyes glanced at the girl’s lips. His gaze then deepened.
Yu Chu stroked her lips in a daze.
Her brain, acting in slow motion, only managed to register how the young man’s lips felt. His lips were soft and sweet, just like cotton candy, and also smooth like jelly.
It was a great feeling…
However…
She widened her eyes in shock and covered her mouth with her hand. She retreated backwards, her heart beating wildly. She stammered and couldn’t form a sentence.
“You… You…”
An Moer’s eyes gleamed darkly.
Her reaction… wasn’t that pleasing.
He turned his head slightly to look at the clear water in the night. Sadness flashed across his eyes.
He turned around and blinked his eyes gently. His voice was soft and light and he seemed confused. With his head askew, he asked, “What’s wrong, Lai En?”
His expression was natural and sincere.
Yu Chu’s heartbeat had returned to normal. He must have assumed that kisses could be shared with a friend.
To foreigners, this type of contact could be a way of expressing fondness.
An innocent and naive mermaid wouldn’t know about the meaning behind a kiss…
Yu Chu touched her lips and shook her head. She suddenly stared into the mermaid’s eyes and reminded him sternly, “In the future, you can’t kiss anyone else, do you understand?”
The young man was startled.
When he saw her initial reaction, he felt a little gloomy. The gloom in his eyes faded a little. The corners of his lips curled and he tried to conceal hidden delight. He pressed his lips shyly as he whispered,
“Then… can I do it with Lai En?”
He had deliberately teased her.
Yu Chu blushed instantly and glared at him.
“No, you can’t!”
An Moer had expected that answer, so he wasn’t disappointed. In fact, he had been surprised that she told him not to do it with anyone else
His thin lips widened into a broader smile. He was in a good mood and his eyes twinkled. “Then, good night, Lai En.”
The little mermaid dove into the water and his beautiful blue tail swung gracefully. His fair skin was faintly discernible under the surface of the inky water. Yu Chu caught a glimpse of his icy blue hair as it rippled in the water.
Even though it was just his back beneath the waves, he still looked breathtakingly gorgeous.
She couldn’t help but touch her lips again.
…
Lately, there had been some trouble in the kingdom.
The king was an excellent politician and ruler. After he received news that Princess Dai Linnuo was interested in his ‘son’, he brought up the suggestion of marriage.
To the king, it was a brilliant decision… if only Lai En hadn’t been a girl.
As the prince, Lai En wouldn’t be able to change the king’s mind, so she decided to look for Dai Linnuo to tell her about her gender in order to discourage the marriage.
That would be a wise thing to do.
Yu Chu had two missions in this world. The first was to gain approval from Master’s soul fragment, which she had apparently done by being kissed by him.
The second mission was to cancel the wedding engagement and to marry a guy. As long as she revealed her identity as a girl, her mission would be accomplished. There wouldn’t be a problem.
However, Yu Chu had never expected Princess Dai Linnuo to stare at her and say, “It’s alright. I don’t care.”
Yu Chu was speechless.
