After being marked by a merman

In Zhonglihe's view, he belongs to a highly civilized society. Even though the mermaids are very powerful, their world may not have a high civilization.

But when he entered the capital, his opinion changed.

The architecture here is unimaginably magnificent, truly combining water and land, which is completely different from the small village he left, as if entering the territory of elves.

No matter the appearance of any mermaid on the street is at the level of a star in another world, so a person like Zhong Lihe, who was relatively handsome before, looks a bit ugly in this group.

Sheng Jing tightened Zhong Lihe's hand, and those people looked at them from time to time, which made Sheng Jing a little scared.

"It's so ugly..." He heard a beautiful merman say to his companion in the distance.

Zhong Lihe pursed his lips, he hugged Sheng Jing, lowered his head, and rushed forward at a faster speed.

He could hear those people saying that he was ugly, he had never been troubled by his appearance before, but today, Zhong Lihe was embarrassed by it for the first time.

After finding a hotel that was very close to Murphy College, they stayed in and entered the room. Zhong Lihe suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Father, you're not ugly." Little Shengjing said while holding Zhonglihe's hand.

His eyes are the same blue as Sheng Lan's. Every time he sees these eyes, Zhonglihe is relieved of everything.

"Shengjing is good." Zhonglihe hugged his son.

They had just experienced such a thing when they first arrived in the capital, and it might not be smooth after they came here, but to Zhong Lihe, it was nothing, as he survived even the most painful days.

The next day, he took Shengjing to Murphy College, where there are all mermen with super powers. This kind of ability is called a godsend by mermen. In this world, such mermen are one in a million. , will become a powerful and high-level merman in the future.

"Are you really his father?" the headmaster in a gold-rimmed white robe asked strangely.

Zhonglihe nodded: "Of course."

The principal looked at Sheng Jing, who was outstanding in appearance, and then at Zhong Lihe, and there were indeed some similarities.

"May I ask, your other half..."

"Passed away." When talking about this, Zhonglihe's eyes were a bit sad, and Shengjing looked at him with concern.

"Sorry." After the principal apologized, he tested Sheng Jing's ability. Sheng Jing is very talented, which made the principal very happy. He took Sheng Jing's hand and said, "You will become a strong man." By."

Shengjing doesn't have much desire to become a strong man, he just wants to find his father, so that his father will not be so sad.

Because all the students of Murphy College had to live on campus, Zhong Lihe had to separate from Sheng Jing.

"Father, I don't want to leave you." Shengjing threw herself into Zhonglihe's arms sadly.

Zhong Lihe patted him on the back and said, "Study hard, Dad will visit you every week."

"Okay..." Sheng Jing said obediently although she was disappointed.

Seeing Sheng Jing being taken away by the principal, Zhong Lihe's heart felt empty. For the past three years, his life had revolved around his son, and now that Sheng Jing was living at school, he suddenly didn't know what to do.

But this kind of helplessness only lasted for a while, Zhong Lihe patted his cheeks with both hands, Sheng Jing's future tuition fees have not been settled yet, he has to find a job.

In the past three years, he has learned how to cook, all taught by He Du. The cooking methods in this world are very simple, so the meals they make are very popular among sharks.

After wandering around Wangcheng for about three hours, Zhonglihe found out that a restaurant that looked new was recruiting people.

Zhong Lihe walked in. The restaurant owner has nice long silver hair, thin lips and gray eyes, and looks cold and not easy to mess with.

"Hi, my name is Zhonglihe, and I see that you are recruiting." Zhonglihe said.

The boss walked around the counter and came out to look at him, and suddenly said, "You've really lowered the beauty of our entire population."

His words made Zhong Lihe's face turn red, and he was about to refute, but the boss said, "What do you want to do?"

"Chef." Zhonglihe whispered.

"You?" The boss obviously didn't believe it. The profession of chef is very scarce and precious in the entire capital. This poor-looking female doesn't look like a noble chef.

"I can cook a lot of dishes. If you don't believe me, I can cook for you." Zhong Lihe explained anxiously after realizing that the boss had been silent for a long time.

"The kitchen is at the back." The boss said suddenly.

Zhonglihe's eyes lit up, and at this moment the boss said again: "My name is Ailu."

After talking, Ai Lu took Zhong Lihe to the kitchen. Zhong Lihe looked at the clean and tidy kitchen with all the ingredients and utensils, and immediately washed his hands and started cooking.

The first thing he wants to do is to fry steak, which is also the first meal that Shenglan cooks for him, but there is no beef here, only a kind of meat called mullet fish is very similar to beef, and it is more delicious than steak after frying.

In addition to Western food, Zhong Lihe cooked a lot of Chinese food next, and after that, he paid special attention to the plate arrangement. Ai Lu smelled the fragrance in the air and watched Zhong Lihe's eyes gradually change.

"What's this called?" Ai Lu walked over and pointed to the dish he made.

Zhonglihe introduced them one by one, and then handed him a small shovel. There are no chopsticks or forks in this world. The food they eat has not been carefully cooked, so although they don’t use their hands when eating, they use palm-sized ones. small shovel.

Ai Lu took a sip, and a light of surprise flashed in his gray eyes. Zhonglihe felt relieved when he saw his eyes, and he knew that he could probably stay.

"Twenty gold coins a month, if you agree, you can come to work tomorrow." Ai Lu said after tasting all the dishes.

After hearing this, Zhonglihe hesitated and said, "Is food and accommodation included?"

Ai Lu asked with a flash in his eyes: "You don't have a place to live?"

"I came from a small village, and my son entered Murphy College." Zhong Lihe said truthfully.

"Well, you can live in the attic on the top, but in this case you can only get fifteen gold coins a month." Ailu said.

"No problem." It's good to have a place to live. He has inquired about it. If you rent a house here, you can get twelve gold coins a month. He also has to pay living expenses to Sheng Jing, so he must save some money.

After settling down, Zhonglihe cleaned the attic once, and lying on the made bed, he let out a tired breath.

At the same time, in the highest palace of the royal capital, a beautiful and charming female mermaid stared sadly at a male fish wearing a half mask and said, "Sheng Lan, you can't just ignore the desire to reproduce just because of a dream." responsibility."

"Mother, we have a long lifespan, and we can't eat hot tofu in a hurry." Sheng Lan said in a deep voice.

Queen Lucy asked with a strange expression, "What is tofu?"

Shenglan paused, because he didn't know that he was injured three years ago, not only did he have a scar on his face, but his memory only stayed when he was just an adult.

When he was found and rescued, Shenglan slept on the bed for a full year. When he woke up, he found that more than 20 years had passed since he became an adult. Even though mermaids are generally over 200 years old, 20 years is not short. He has been missing for 20 years, and has no memory of this period of time.

"You will never know how attractive a female is when you stay in the palace, so go out more when you have time." Liu Ji said this and left Shenglan's room helplessly.

[The author has something to say]: Many people have already guessed it in the comment area. Well, amnesia is a relatively common stalk. After being guessed by you, I originally wanted to avoid this stalk, but after much deliberation, it is still more fragrant like this.The noble and handsome dream lover, His Royal Highness, attacked the ordinary and slightly ugly commoner who knew how to cook food.

In fact, Shou is not ugly, but when you think about being surrounded by handsome men and beautiful women, Shou's delicate and pleasant appearance is a bit ordinary.
