The Deep Water Mermaid Chapter 9

Huang's persistence made Yasha feel a little angry and bored, and his original fighting spirit also lost interest as his enthusiasm faded.

"You're so stupid! I'm too lazy to deal with idiots like you. Let's go..." The words stopped suddenly, as if he hit something.

When the two came back to their senses, they realized that they had accidentally bumped into a pair of bare feet while rolling. The bare feet were as clean as jade, and hung with a cute anklet made of a bunch of small scallops, but they didn't make the slightest sound when they walked around.

Looking up at the fluttering soft dress, Huang was slightly startled, and then suddenly realized that it was already past noon.

"Lord Ariel..."

They were caught fighting in private, and the fight ended abruptly without a winner. The two men immediately let go of each other unnaturally, patted the dirt on their bodies, and stood up.

Yasha fearlessly turned his head to look at the sea with a dusty face, not caring at all that Ariel had listened to the bad words he had just said behind his back.

The woman seemed to be in a bad mood, and her eyes did not have the usual crescent-like smile, but even if she was really angered, Yasha would not take back what he just said.

"Lord Ariel, I..." Unexpectedly, Ariel would suddenly find this place. Huang's face tightened and he opened his mouth not knowing how to explain.

Ariel was silent at this moment, his face was calm, and he looked completely different from what he was accustomed to in the past.

He smiled bitterly in his heart, she must be furious now, right?

Ariel's ice-blue eyes clearly reflected Huang's figure. The young man was now bruised and swollen, and was beaten like half a pig's head. He looked funny, but she couldn't laugh at all.

"Sir, I'm sorry that I broke the rules. I will accept any punishment prescribed."

Huang felt a little uneasy in his heart, and he didn't care at all about the punishment that was about to come. He was only worried that Ariel would be disappointed with him at this moment, after all, he had been so obedient and obedient before.

The other party didn't speak for a long time. Just as the uneasiness in Huang's heart deepened, he felt a slender hand gently caressing his messy hair, seemingly with some hesitation.

This action caused him to stagnate, and he subconsciously raised his head to look at Ariel with his swollen eyes. At this moment, there was an emotion in her eyes that Huang had never seen before, which made him stunned.

Ariel is a very beautiful monster, he has always known this.

It's just that the other party's unique voice is so captivating that it will always inadvertently steal the attention of those around her, thereby ignoring the emotions hidden in her eyes.

Her eyes were different from usual at this moment. They were no longer a forest shrouded in mist, but like a sea surface with thick fog dispersed by warm light, clear and beautiful.

But Huang still couldn't read the emotion in Ariel's eyes.

Is it joy? Is it sadness? Still angry...

Ariel put her hand on Huang's hair and stroked it gently a few times, smoothing his messy purple hair. The dirty sand also touched her hand.

"Today you didn't come on time as promised."

"I'm sorry, my lord..."

"This is not the way of a good boy... Even if you want to do something or it will be delayed, you should mention it to me or the book master in advance."

Huang nodded lightly, feeling slightly relieved. Ariel's reaction was relatively calm and gentle, which already surprised him.

"Because it will make others worry."

Huang was startled again. He was already prepared to be punished, but now he was at a loss.

"You can't be like this anymore, you know?" There was a hint of emotion that Huang couldn't understand in his low and gentle tone.

The next second, he felt the hand that had been on his head pat him twice, then slid to one side and gently leaned his head against his body. He, who was still young, only reached Ariel's shoulder at this time, and lightly bumped the other person's shoulder with the side of his head.

Just when Huang was confused by this slightly intimate action, the hand once again slid through his hair and ears very naturally, and finally put his arm around his shoulders.

The warmth from his palms made him feel a little hot on his shoulders, and it seemed that his cheeks were also burning. Under the cover of the dirty mud, he couldn't tell whether it was shame or shyness.

"Let's go back and clean up. I broke the rules the first time. Don't do it a second time."

When Yasha on the side heard this, he suddenly turned his head, narrowed his eyes and looked at Ariel inexplicably, but the other party seemed to completely ignore him.

Huang nodded hesitantly, and then whispered: "Yes."

After receiving Huang's response, Ariel softened his expression, held Huang's shoulders and led him towards the palace.

After walking a few steps, Ariel suddenly stopped, turned around and frowned at Yasha and said lightly displeasedly: "I told you to go back and clean up, what are you doing standing there and eating ashes?"

This time it was Yasha's turn to be stunned. Ariel's reaction actually made him a little confused.

"...You woman, you are thinking of some bad ideas."

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Yasha knew that he had said inappropriate words in an inappropriate situation, but this had become his instinctive reaction and he could not change it at all.

She originally thought that if she beat Huang like that, with Ariel's attitude towards Huang, she would definitely kill him angrily, but she did not, not even ignoring him indifferently.

This made Yasha, who originally wanted to see Ariel's angry appearance, feel a strange sense of loss in his heart.

"This is a rule I just made. As for you two, since this is your first offender, I won't care so much. But if you do it next time, you won't be so lucky."

Huang couldn't help but asked cautiously: "Isn't Lord Ariel angry...won't he punish us?"

Is this woman really that kind?

"You must have taken the wrong medicine today..." Yasha couldn't help but say.

"You just took the wrong medicine every day." Ariel glared at him, then looked at Huang, "Angry? You turned a deaf ear to my words. Of course I am very angry."

"So even if I don't care about it, I still can't escape the punishment. With the way you two are now, I think it's enough to punish you by guarding the border for seven days, so you should go to the back mountain to clean the streets and toilets instead."

Even though there was a strong sense of disgust in his words, Huang still noticed the care and worry behind Ariel's words, which made him couldn't help but curl up the corners of his lips slightly, pulling at the wound and causing a trace of pain.

After saying that, Ariel gently held Huang's shoulders and left without looking back.

Yasha in the distance looked at Ariel's back, a hint of complexity flashed across his uncertain face.

Under the sea breeze and sunshine, Huang couldn't help but raise his head slightly to look at Ariel. Although her expression softened, she still didn't have her usual smile.

Feeling Huang's gaze, Ariel looked at him as he walked and said slowly: "I thought you were a smart kid, but I didn't expect you are actually stupid. Have you forgotten all the things I taught you?" Are you clean?"

...

After glancing at Huangbi's bruised and swollen face, Ariel continued to speak in a deep voice.

"When facing an enemy that is much stronger than you, don't provoke or contact it rashly, otherwise it will be your current fate. The opponent is just a yaksha, what if it is other more terrifying monsters?"

"...Well, not next time."

"Why don't you use demon power?" Ariel asked suddenly, "I have already taught you how to control demon power. If you use demon power, you won't be beaten like this. Why should you let yourself suffer?"

Hearing this, Huang's expression was a bit awkward, "This... this is not a loss."

"What if it's not a loss?" Ariel raised his eyebrows slightly, and his voice also rose accordingly.

"I don't know, it's just that I'm at a disadvantage anyway." He replied quietly and quickly, and then stopped talking.

He just wanted to defeat Yasha from a fair and equitable perspective, so that he would be convinced and stop ridiculing Ariel.

Huang didn't want to use the demon power to fight Yaksha when Yaksha couldn't use it. Even if he achieved his goal, he wouldn't be happy. Huang didn't know why, but he just didn't want to do this.

In a daze, Huang seemed to hear a faint sigh floating beside him.

This child's innocence and stupidity made it impossible for her to laugh at him.

Even though he knew that his power at the moment was not comparable to that of Yaksha, he still persisted in fighting Yaksha. The starting point was just to protect her.

It is not that Ariel has not been protected by monsters. In the Rakshasa Sea, almost no monster dares to say anything wrong about her, otherwise other monsters will definitely attack her. Just like Yasha, Ariel knew everything about the several times he was almost picked on in the market.

But Huang is different.

The other monsters would defend her and go to trouble Yaksha because they were in groups and strong enough to crush Yaksha. If it were the other way around, it wouldn't necessarily be the case.

People bully the weak and fear the strong, and so do monsters. Ariel understands this deeply.

She has protected Rakshasa Sea for so many years, but she has never been protected by such a monster at all costs, and she is still such a thin-looking young man...

What kind of emotion and courage can support this thin and malnourished body and dare to fight against the strong and powerful monster.

At that moment, the two of them rolled on the ground. The young man's embarrassed face and the persistence and unwillingness to give up in his eyes made Ariel unable to help but feel moved.

It's a bit awkward to be treated so sincerely when you are used to being alone.

Ariel remained silent along the way, and Huang couldn't help but peek at her again and again.

Master Ariel today is different from usual. Although he is not smiling, the tenderness in his eyes is more real than usual...

At the same time, it also made him feel unprecedented joy and satisfaction.

"Ding", Huang's favorability towards you has increased by 25 points, and the current favorability is 85 points.
