he from the deep sea

Tao Yao's face was so red.

The sea monster narrowed its eyes slightly, staring carefully at Taoyao's cheeks that were getting redder bit by bit.

Because Taoyao hasn't been exposed to the wind and sun like before, her beautiful appearance is showing little by little. The crimson red on her fair and healthy skin is extremely obvious, even reaching the roots of her ears.

It must be quite tense and awkward, right?

The sea monster thought for a while, then stood up and turned off the bright lights.

The whole space was suddenly plunged into darkness, and the faint light coming in from outside dimly illuminated the room.

He could feel that Taoyao was very tense now, her body was tense and stiff, and she probably wasn't much better mentally.

If the darkness can give Taoyao a sense of security, turning off the lights will do nothing to him.

He could still see it, after all.

"You just tell me what you want." The sea monster said again after feeling that Taoyao seemed to be a little relaxed, "There are some things, if you don't tell me, I will never be able to guess .”

Do you want to go to school?

Or do you want stationery?

Or is it both?

He must hear her thoughts from this child's mouth, otherwise, once he makes his own way, it is likely to be self-defeating.

In fact... he was very careful in every step he took.

"Father..." Tao Yao finally found a sense of security in the darkness, suddenly raised her head, looked at the sea monster in the dim light, "No matter what, I can't willingly accept everything you have done for me! "

After hearing Tao Yao's words, the sea monster was obviously taken aback.

"It's not fair!" Tao Yao walked up to the sea monster in a few steps, and grabbed the sea monster's hair, but with little force, as if she just wanted to express her current mood, "I can't feel at ease no matter what. !"

"Why?" The sea monster could feel Taoyao's fingers trembling slightly as he grasped his hair, he didn't understand the feelings that were entangled in Taoyao's heart now.

"People in this world are not qualified to enjoy other people's kindness without paying anything. No matter who you are, everyone will have something. Why are you different?" Tao Yao's hand slightly relaxed, and a few strands of hair fell from her fingertips , "I'm very scared, Dad, I'm very scared, I don't know that you have given us so much, and you will ask for it later, what if I can't do it?"

Said that the sea monster already understood.

Although I don't know what kind of life Taoyao lived in the past, but there must be a lot of malice and demands mixed in it.

I am used to exchanging everything to get what I want. Compared with his practice of only giving but not knowing how to get something in return, this child who is already used to trading will feel at a loss psychologically.

When everything must have a reason, it is inevitable that she will panic if she gets it without a reason.

"So you want to use your body in exchange?" The sea monster always felt that something was wrong after groping for this logic.

"...This..." Speaking of this, Tao Yao seemed to be a little disappointed, she took a few steps back, and sat back quietly on the sofa before, clenched her hands tightly, and remained silent.

"Even if I don't know much about human beings, I also know that doing things like this is unethical and will be punished with death. You...could it be...the so-called..." The sea monster looked embarrassed, inexplicably Scratching his cheeks, "Repay favors?"

"???" Tao Yao was stunned for a long time, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, as if the sea monster's thinking was going in a direction that she couldn't control, "No...it's not such a father, I didn't this means!"

The sea monster also looked at Taoyao with a dazed expression, unable to speak for a long time.

"I just... I just don't know how to repay you..." Tao Yao hurriedly reached out and grabbed the sea monster's hand, trying hard to express her meaning, "I use my body because, in the past, many people I was asked to do this,...I...I have nothing I can do for you...so..."

Many people before?

The sea monster frowned, not knowing why he was inexplicably unhappy when he heard such a statement.

"Then in your heart, I have the same weight as those people?" The sea monster tilted his head.

"no!"

Suddenly Tao Yao's tone became serious, echoing in the quiet room in the silent night, the sea monster was taken aback.

Tao Yao directly half-kneeled on the ground and hugged the sea monster's waist, and put her face on his abdomen, acting like a spoiled child.

"You are different, you give me a new life, a new life, a new future, you are mine..."

Not parents.

Benefactor is also not enough to express.

"You are mine..." Taoyao's eyes were empty, and she carefully hollowed out her head to find a suitable vocabulary. After a long time, she spit out two words from those lovely lips, "Miracle."

After hearing such words, the sea monster's mood seemed to drop a stone into a calm lake, causing ripples.

This child pays more attention to him than he imagined.

But...can't express, too inferior, even cowardly.

Now I am trying my best to do my best.

Also put all the uneasiness in the bottom of my heart.

This time, it was not so much that she wanted to ask for something through him, maybe that thing was just an excuse, everything she wanted to express had already been conveyed...

Little silly fish.

"When parents raise their children, they don't think about asking for anything from them..." Sea Monster, as a father, has long been prepared to give everything. You are responsible for my life."

"No!" Tao Yao resolutely refuted the sea monster's words, "It's not like that!"

Um?The sea monster lowered its head in doubt and met Tao Yao's eyes.

"Even parents will pin their hopes on their children!" Tao Yao said, "More parents hope that their children will be successful and improve their lives, and they will put more pressure on their children, and even ask for money. More!"

When the sea monster was listening to Taoyao's explanation, he found Taoyao's strong sense of distrust and anxiety when he mentioned his parents. At this moment, it was like Fu Yang and Fu Yao in the past.

"But you have done a good job." The sea monster said, "I am already very satisfied with what you do for this family every day."

"It's not enough." Tao Yao was obviously dazed, "How can these trivial things be done! I have to do more, Dad, tell me, what do you want me to do? I can do anything!"

How can we make this child feel safe?

Knowing how to trade is not a bad thing, he shouldn't force Taoyao to reformulate her concepts.

But this child is really too tense, a silent child, he didn't expect to be frightened when he became angry.

The sea monster was a little worried. He couldn't say that he actually hoped that his child could successfully hunt a whale and come back, could he?

"My request to you is that you need to be an excellent person, and that's enough." The sea monster gently stroked Taoyao's hair, and when Taoyao was about to refute, he pressed against the other's lips , "I don't need you to repay me anything, your growth is the biggest reward for me."

Tao Yao was stunned, her eyes widened as she watched the sea monster.

"Human children are truly incredible."

The sea monster followed Taoyao's hair, obviously there was only such a small place where he could think, but he was able to use such a small place to restrain the instinct of the whole body, which made him feel incredible softness miraculously.

Human emotions are too complicated for him to understand, but he has to understand these emotions under the intentional or unintentional inducement of these children, and finally he is amazed by them.

These children are not trash fish, but human beings.

His cub should grow up under the care of him and his partner, and then learn instinct, learn to hunt, learn to survive, and then eat everything from him, inheriting his dominance.

This is the inheritance of male destiny.

But humans are different, very... different.

"Grow up to be an excellent person." The sea monster felt that he was becoming more and more like a human being, because he couldn't stop smiling and looking forward to it, "I want to see what kind of miracle you have created by yourself. .”

What will these children grow up to be like?

He always seemed to be a sea monster just to be good for himself, so he couldn't help but want to see the future of these children.

"You have to do it to the point where I am amazed by you, how about it?" The sea monster thought for a while and said with a smile, "Before that, you can ask for whatever you want and ask me for anything."

"This target range is too large, I..."

Taoyao was a little confused, and she was still a little uneasy, but when she met the smiling eyes of the sea monster, all the uneasiness seemed to be dispelled.

Those eyes were clear and pure, without any distracting thoughts filling them, but there was a trace of sparkle in them, which was the acknowledgment she was looking forward to.

"As for now... You guys stop surprising me all the time. I'm already very satisfied. You've done a good job. With you here, this place will be tidy and clean, and life will be worry-free. It's really good."

The sea monster looked up at the well-kept home.

"You just need to grow up. No matter what you grow up to, it probably surprises me, right? The unknown future is very interesting."

He won't give her an exact target.

Nor would he force some of his expectations on her as she said.

Because these children are not fish, but human beings with infinite possibilities.

Taoyao didn't speak, she didn't know what to say to refute, it didn't seem right, she didn't seem to get any response from the sea monster, it seemed that she was the only one who benefited in the end.

Why did she feel a lot more at ease when nothing was solved?

But...but...

Tao Yao continued to hold the sea monster's waist, her eyes shone with unknown brilliance.

The sea monster means: he will accompany her to the future and witness everything about her growth.

This is the first time I know that a verbal promise that may be broken at any time can actually make people feel so at ease.

Won't abandon her, won't be like everyone else, here...is home.

He didn't put any pressure on her, and made her gradually calm down.

It was like water, silently seeping into every corner.

this father...

The most cunning!
