Facing Nasha’s eyes, Kerry highlighted a syllable.

“I……”

Kerry was entangled, he opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

Seeing him hesitating, Nasha’s little face suddenly collapsed: “If I disturb you, forget it…”

“That’s not true!” Kerry quickly replied: “It’s just…there are some inconveniences, so please ask someone else to show you around.”

After speaking, Kerry closed his eyes, turned his head and ran away.

Seeing him running away, there was no sad look on Nasha’s tender face, only endless inquiry and shallow corners of her mouth were left.

Running to a place where there was no one, Kerry gasped on his knees, regretting a little.

——The other party was a saint! If… if you can get along well with the saint, won’t it be very helpful for your future! Idiot Kerry! Do you want to live such a life of being bullied and humiliated for the rest of your life?!

Kerry didn’t want to analyze what was going on in his mind, but he clearly knew that it was his dream to get rid of such a life.

——Let everyone pay for their ignorance!

Pausing, Kerry wanted to turn around and run back to pick up this opportunity again, but as soon as he took a half step, he stopped.

In my bones… He still didn’t really want to go.

Even if he wanted to retaliate, he couldn’t be so spineless.

Kerry, who was still a teenager, didn’t know how to be human. He was just confused and confused now, unwilling to live his current life, but he was helpless… He had no friends, no one to get close to, and in the huge mansion, only he was struggling alone.

The loving face of her mother when she died suddenly appeared in his mind. She stroked his head, comforted him softly, wiped away his tears, and then never raised her hand again.……

If it were his mother, what would she had told herself? And what would she had done?

Unconsciously, Kerry had already walked out of the side door of the mansion and walked towards the beach in the distance.

The side door was the least noticed door and Kerry’s room happened to be in the round tower with the side door, a small place, like a doll abandoned there.

Qi Yan was swimming in the water, feeling the sound of heavy objects falling into the water behind him. Although it was not very clear, Qi Yan’s hearing was very sensitive in the sea.

Quietly surfacing, Qi Yan saw a single thin figure sitting on the beach in the distance, sitting on the reef hugging his knees to himself.

No need to think about it, he knew it’s Kerry.

Qi Yan swam quietly, no better during the day than at night. In order not to be discovered, Qi Yan could only be cautious.

When he came to the reef that night, Qi Yan floated up and saw that Kerry was addicted to his thoughts and didn’t notice him at all, so he whispered, “What are you thinking?”

Kerry was taken aback, he looked down and a big smile appeared on his face: “You still remember me!”

Qi Yan glanced at him faintly, then looked away and looked at the sea in the distance: “Of course, my memory is not only seven seconds.”

Kerry leaned down happily: “My name is Kerry, what’s your name?”

Qi Yan looked at the hand and pondered for a moment. He took out his own hand and shook it with the sea water: “Qi Yan.”

“Qi Yan?” Kerry murmured and repeated: “A name from the eastern ocean?”

Qi Yan retracted his hand and turned his head coldly: “It has nothing to do with you.”

Kerry thought he had touched some taboo; his shoulders shrank and he stopped asking.

There was silence between the two, Qi Yan was soaking in the water, while Kerry was sitting. No one spoke and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.

It’s almost lunch time and this quiet atmosphere makes Kerry a little anxious. What if someone came to him later and found Qi Yan?

“That…” Kerry spoke tentatively. Seeing that Qi Yan hadn’t changed much, he continued: “I… want to become stronger.”

Qi Yan was taken aback and looked up at him: “What become stronger?”

“I want to become stronger, so that no one can bully me and scold me as they want.”

The unusually serious words were spoken in this tender voice, which should have been like a joke, but Qi Yan heard the hatred and unwillingness in the depths of the words.

After a few seconds of silence, Qi Yan asked rhetorically: “Is it the wound from yesterday?”

Hearing this, Kerry unconsciously raised his hand, stroked the bruise that was no longer painful or swollen, and replied softly: “Mmn.”

“Then become stronger.” Qi Yan put his gaze on the group of seagulls playing in the distance, his voice indifferent like a spectator.

“When you become stronger, you can protect the person you want to protect.”

[Kerry’s favorability towards Qi Yan +5, current favorability 25]

Looking down at his smooth silver hair sticking to his fair skin, the lines of his lean and sturdy upper body were extremely perfect, Kerry was startled and blurted out the following words.

“I want to protect you.”

It was… to protect you, keep you by my side, and be my own mermaid.

Qi Yan’s movements froze, he met Kerry’s hot gaze, and the indifferent and deserted shimmer in his pupils flickered.

“Then come and protect me.”

……

It’s like a childish banter, who would pursue these things when they grew up? And so Qi Yan responded as a kind of encouragement. Every day after that, Kerry would sneak out at night, sit on this reef, chat with Qi Yan, and talk about anecdotes and strange things on the mainland.

Many times, Kerry came with injuries, sometimes coming even later because of them.

Every time, Qi Yan would not ask questions, but waited quietly until he arrived.

No man would want someone they care about to ask about their failures, especially those that they couldn’t take.

The more scars there were, the weaker Kerry was. In the same way, as the scars increased, he would become more determined to do a certain thing.

A year had passed and Kerry and Qi Yan had maintained a ‘friendly’ relationship. They chatted daily, although most of them were just Kerry talking and Qi Yan listening. Kerry’s favorability naturally rose to ‘40’.

“A Yan, I brought the pastry, do you want to taste it?”

Boys in the growth period always grew up fast. If it was a year ago that Kerry was a teenager, then now he looked like an adult man.

Although he had to admit it, Kerry was already a seventeen-year-old young man. The man that was more than 1.8 meters was still sitting on the reef, no longer looking thin, but exceptionally handsome and powerful.

Qi Yan didn’t take the pastry he brought, but looked at him faintly, and said word for word: “Kerry, I’m leaving.”

It was almost winter and Qi Yan had to leave the sea and go to the volcanic sea.

Volcanic sea, as the name suggested, was a sea surrounding the crater of a volcano. It was not subjected to the cold currents and was a good place for mermaids to spend the winter.

Qi Yan’s voice fell and Kerry stood up abruptly, staring at Qi Yan with his head down.

“Even you want to leave me?!”
