The robot housekeeper is actually a mermaid O

For the next few days, Wen Xu lived in Shen Baiyu's bedroom.

Going to bed at night, Wen Xu slept in the bathtub, Shen Baiyu slept on the bed with the bathroom door open, the very weak pheromone was just enough to last the whole night.

But usually in the middle of the night, Shen Baiyu would wake up several times.

He has always been a light sleeper, and he would wake up when he heard the louder sound of water, so he was worried if he didn't take a look.

Every time I went to see it, Wen Xu would lie on his side and sink to the bottom of the water, sound asleep.

The side face of the young man soaked in cold water was cold and delicate, and the light blonde hair floated wantonly in the water, reflecting the silvery white scales on the side of the face, making the figure glow as unreal.

very beautiful.

Shen Baiyu would routinely release a small amount of pheromone to check the wounds and new scales of the tail. Every time his fingertips touched, the almost transparent tail fin would roll up softly in the water, trying to get closer to him.

Wen Xu would turn over at this time and spit out a few bubbles.

It took about two weeks, under the care of Shen Baiyu in all aspects, Wen Xu's tail has recovered very well, and the wounds are much less than when he first landed, only some deep cracks remain.

The newly grown scales are gradually hardening, matching the texture of the original scales, and protecting the inner texture tightly.

It's just that maybe it's because of the new life, those scales are more white and look dull.

At that time, a lot of scales fell off, so the new scales looked quite conspicuous, and the color of the whole tail appeared uneven, which made Wen Xu feel depressed for two days.

Shen Baiyu was worried about another thing.

The further back he went, he found that injecting pheromones through the glands became less effective.

Those horrible bright red wounds healed quickly after the first few times, while the remaining old wounds healed very slowly.The same is true for the later stages of scale growth.

After much deliberation, Shen Baiyu discussed with Wen Xu that it was time to go to the Mermaid Center.

Perhaps it is the reason for the need to contact the water quality of the deep sea environment.

Before leaving, Shen Baiyu received a call from his father.

He hasn't been to the company much in the past half a month, and it takes a few hours at most to go, and he will leave soon.

Although he insisted on working at home and didn't delay his business, Father Shen has always been strict, so he probably couldn't stand it long ago.

Shen Baiyu found a reason to deal with it, but didn't mention Wen Xu.

On the day of going to the Mermaid Center, it was the first time in a long time that Wen Xu kept his tail in the shape of his legs.

Shen Baiyu had consulted before, and although the shape of the legs would cover the wound, it would not be of any benefit to the healing of the wound, and would also cause a certain amount of consumption.After all, the original form of a mermaid is a fish tail.

So he almost forbade Wen Xu to turn into legs during this period of time.

Wen Xu sat by the bed in the bedroom, put on the long-lost trousers, and swayed his calves back and forth.

Shen Baiyu squatted down in front of him, held down his ankle, and pulled down the trouser leg, making sure to completely cover his calf.

Wen Xu's ankles were very thin, with prominent bone lines and delicate skin. When his warm and dry palms covered them, he felt a strange feeling inexplicably, and flinched.

Shen Baiyu raised his eyes: "Uncomfortable?"

Wen Xu quickly shook his head.

It just itch.

He lowered his eyes to look at Shen Baiyu's concentration, his gaze fell on the other's hair, and his ears suddenly became hot uncontrollably.

Wen Xu felt that he was weird. Shen Baiyu had helped him apply medicine to his tail countless times before, but he didn't think there was anything wrong. Why was he so... awkward this time.

-

It was the third time to come to the Mermaid Center, and Shen Baiyu was already familiar enough.

When the two came to the hall, because it was working hours, there were tourists visiting in twos and threes.

This time, Wen Changji didn't bother the receptionist any more, and he sat in the leisure area early and waited.

He was wearing a white coat with a kind smile on his face. When he saw them, he stood up and waved his hand.

Wen Xu paused slightly.

From the moment the two looked at each other, the mermaid's induction allowed them to confirm each other's identities.

Not only that, after looking at each other, Wen Xu's hand that was originally hidden in his pocket quickly reached over and squeezed Shen Baiyu's fingers tightly.

He recognized that this was the mermaid who left breath on Shen Baiyu's body twice.

Shen Baiyu had thought of this a long time ago, he turned his head slightly, and sure enough, he saw the scales on the side of Wen Xu's face showing a tendency to appear.

Alpha turned around naturally, the tall figure completely blocked the boy, and put his finger on the sweater hat for Wen Xu.

The wide, dark coat and hat tightly blocked the boy's aggressive eyes.

Shen Baiyu's finger bones rubbed against the scales on Wen Xu's cheeks: "Okay, I won't have any contact with him again."

……

After Wen Xu's emotions were calmed down, the two approached and sat opposite Wen Changji.

"Mr. Shen, nice to see you again." Wen Changji started politely as usual.

However, when he put his gaze on Wen Xu, the emotion in his eyes changed obviously, the coldness faded away, and gentleness was no longer a disguise.

——It is the look in the eyes when you see the same kind.

"Hello," he even lowered his voice slightly, "My name is Wen Changji, what's your name?"

Wen Xu was wearing a large sweater, sitting on a chair, his eyes were half covered by the brim of his hat, and he looked very indifferent.

His hostility towards the other party has not been completely suppressed, and he doesn't want to talk at all, but thinking of the help the other party provides, he must have basic courtesy.

He answered very coldly.

"Wen Xu, it's very nice." Wen Changji smiled, "There are maintenance staff over the pool now. They know every mermaid. If you want to go, you need to wait until they leave for lunch break."

Wen Xu nodded after hearing the words and looking at Shen Baiyu.

There was a short silence on the table, Wen Changji didn't say anything for a while, but his eyes kept on Wen Xu.

Until Shen Baiyu felt impatient and tapped his finger on the table: "Doctor Wen."

"Sorry." Wen Changji came back to his senses and apologized, "No offense meant."

It was just... the first time he saw a mermaid like Wen Xu.

He travels all year round to protect the mermaids living on land. He has seen too many mermaids, but without exception, they are all strong and ferocious.

On the other hand, Wen Xu is thin and has a docile temperament. Even if he is hostile, he just barks his teeth... You must know that if it is an ordinary adult fish, if it encounters such a situation, it will probably start to fight with its tail.

Although Wen Xu was an adult, he looked more like a mermaid cub.

Wen Changji couldn't help thinking, how did such a fragile mermaid survive in the sea for so long?

"I'm very happy to see that you survived in good health." He maintained a faint smile on his face, and then said very plainly, "It also represents the species, I hope you can understand."

He was referring to the fact that Wen Xu was abandoned by the population.

Although the content of what he said was polite enough, there was no apology, and there was no apology in his tone.

Wen Xu didn't seem to hear it, he just pressed against Shen Baiyu's arm indifferently, and looked elsewhere.

And Shen Baiyu seemed to care, his eyes flickered slightly, waiting for an explanation.

Wen Changji adjusted his glasses.

"The population will abandon mermaids who are born weak and do not have the ability to reproduce."

Because their tails are not ferocious and powerful enough, their hearing and vision are not sharp enough, and their physical fitness is also poor. They survive in the dangerous deep sea and only have to be protected.

They can't hunt, they can't reproduce, they don't contribute anything to the population, and they need other strong merfolk to take care of and protect them.

It will only delay the continuation and survival of the population.

They will always fall into a crisis that they cannot solve, and the population cannot always have strong mermaids to protect them.

Therefore, these mermaids without viability and fertility will be abandoned from the moment they are born.

This is a very cruel choice made by a type of animal living in a primitive and savage environment.

It is often impossible for an abandoned mermaid to survive.

Wen Xu was the first one Wen Changji had met in so many years.

These reasons, Shen Baiyu had already guessed when searching for information, he knew that human thinking cannot be used to substitute other species, so he had to express his understanding of this point.

But now listening to the other party's explanation in a cold voice, Alpha is protecting Wen Xu selfishly and cannot remain completely rational.

"This has been the case since our existence for countless years," Wen Changji finally said, "I can't change it."

Shen Baiyu's eyes darkened slightly, and he remained silent, feeling Wen Xu's feelings.

He knew very well that Wen Changji was just one of the many mermaids in the world. The other party came from an unknown sea area, and he didn't even know how many mermaids were abandoned, and he didn't know those weak mermaids, including Wen Xu.

So in the end... No one can complain about such an encounter.

But at the same time, he couldn't develop a good impression of these mermaids.

"As for now," Wen Changji briefly explained, and turned his gaze back to Wen Xu, "I hope you can learn to integrate into human life."

He has a wide range of knowledge, and it is easy to see that Wen Xu still has very little understanding of human society.

"It's best not to go back to the sea."

The tethering of pheromones is one thing, and there is another.

"Because you are not within our protection, once something happens, it will be difficult to live safely."

As Wen Changji spoke, he glanced at Shen Baiyu, his eyes were dim, and he added in a low voice: "Only the land can guarantee your safety."

Wen Xu frowned.

Before he went ashore, he lived alone in the sea, so there was no need to be reminded of this.He always felt that the other party wanted to express other meanings.

"why."

He raised his eyes and asked.

Wen Changji smiled, rational to the point of indifference: "My duty is to protect the mermaid. Logically speaking, since you are alive, you are within my protection."

"But to be more rigorous, with limited energy, I can only choose to protect the stronger mermaids in the population."

The meaning is very simple, he only weighs the pros and cons to the population, and does not intend to allocate his energy to Wen Xu, so he hopes that Wen Xu will consciously stay in a relatively safe environment.

Shen Baiyu stood up abruptly.

There was no expression on his face, and the pheromone was fluctuating silently.

Wen Changji's face remained unchanged, but his fingertips trembled slightly.

Although mermaids are physically more aggressive, their pheromones are still lagging behind compared to humans.

In the face of the top Alpha's pheromone suppression, Wen Changji didn't have much room to resist.

The stalemate lasted only a few seconds, and Wen Xu also stood up, grabbed Shen Baiyu's fingers, and the strong sense of coercion gradually dissipated.

Shen Baiyu didn't speak any more, remained silent, and walked to the corridor of the treatment room.

-

At noon, Wen Changji deliberately stayed on duty, and the other doctors left one after another to eat and rest.

After confirming that no one else would come near the pool, Wen Changji went down to communicate with the mermaids who were playing in the pool, and asked them to go to another mermaid entertainment area for the time being.

After all, Wen Xu was too weak, those mermaids were used to being rude, and being in a water area might hurt him, this was Shen Baiyu's request.

Wen Xu originally noticed that Shen Baiyu was in a bad mood, and kept sticking to his side until he was allowed to go down to play, so he turned around and went back to the first floor.

Shen Baiyu seemed to be thinking about something, and temporarily stood by the railing on the second floor, not going down with him.

The water in the pool has been scientifically adjusted. Although it is not as comfortable as the deep sea, it is enough for the temperature of the fresh water soaked for several months.

He conjured up a tail, and as soon as the tail fin touched the water, his eyes lit up, and he looked up subconsciously.

Shen Baiyu and him looked at each other, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, he raised his hand and waved, signaling that the other party was having fun.

Wen Xu supported the shore with his palms, his arms were strong, his body jumped up easily, and he jumped into the water nimbly.

There was the sound of rushing water on the surface of the water, accompanied by the rise of the tail of the fish, and the crystal water splashed, making the silver and white fish fins even more beautiful.

The fish's tail slapped vigorously on the water, Wen Xu poked his head out from inside, and smiled so happily for the first time in more than ten days: "It's very deep below, I'll go down and have a look."

He was afraid that Shen Baiyu would be worried.

Alpha said to pay attention to safety, watching the tail of the fish submerged underwater, the silver light flickered and swayed, and finally disappeared from the field of vision.

After standing for a while, Wen Changji arranged the mermaids and walked towards him.

Shen Baiyu's expression was always calm, and he was too lazy to maintain the usual gentleness on the surface.

Wen Changji put two cups of coffee by the table, and stood with him, hesitating to speak.

Shen Baiyu suddenly spoke first.

"Doctor Wen, I have a question."

Wen Changji glanced at him.

Shen Baiyu raised his gaze, and the two looked at each other: "How dependent is Wen Xu on my pheromone?"

Wen Changji was taken aback.

He had already seen how the two of them got along, and noticed their compatibility. He was hesitating whether to tell the other party about this, but Shen Baiyu himself had already guessed it.

After a moment of silence, Wen Changji sighed.

"Your pheromone is equivalent to his life-sustaining blood."

Shen Baiyu's fingers by his side suddenly clenched.

After asking about how to treat Wen Xu that day, he vaguely felt that something was wrong.

These days, it feels even more abnormal.

In the beginning, when Wen Xu's tail was seriously injured, Wen Xu could still talk and laugh when he was beside him, but when he left for a while, Wen Xu seemed listless.

At first, he thought that the two had already marked each other, which affected Wen Xu's mood.

But Shen Baiyu soon discovered that when he was by his side, those wounds healed faster, and when he returned after leaving for a while, the wounds sometimes even aggravated.

Not only that, but during Wen Xu's injury, other aspects, such as immunity and pain tolerance, would all change due to the intensity of his pheromone.

Shen Baiyu soon realized that things might not be as simple as Wen Changji said at the beginning.

It's not that his pheromones can cure Wen Xu, but that Wen Xu has become extremely dependent on his pheromones.

This was originally his guess, but Wen Changji's gaze during the conversation just now, and the sentence "Only staying on land can guarantee Wen Xu's safety" gave him affirmation.

Wen Changji said lightly: "This is a physical sign that a mermaid is born with."

Shen Baiyu's eyes moved slightly, and his Adam's apple moved with difficulty.

Now that the other party had already guessed, Wen Changji simply continued talking and told Shen Baiyu all the relevant knowledge and precautions.

"This is another reason why he needs to stay on land." After speaking, Wen Changji concluded.

Shen Baiyu looked sideways slightly, looked at him, and said in a low voice: "It's not necessary, he was forced to stay here."

Wen Changji was slightly taken aback.

Shen Baiyu couldn't explain how he felt right now.

He is an Alpha with a strong desire to possess, and it should be his wish that Wen Xu could stay by his side forever.

But this should not be mandatory.

Now... These are too unfair to Wen Xu.

Wen Changji seemed to understand his thoughts, opened his mouth, and swallowed the unnecessary words back.

The calm between the two was broken by the sound of water flow, and as Wen Xu swam quickly, ripples appeared on the surface of the water.

Finally, with a "crash", the little mermaid stuck out of the water, flung out its silvery white fish tail, and greeted the people upstairs.

"Brother, I'm back!"

Shen Baiyu smiled, a little reluctantly.

And Wen Changji looked at it for a while, and suddenly asked: "You haven't mated yet?"

Shen Baiyu: "..."

He was really not satisfied with this vocabulary.

Merfolk have no human undertones, he understands.

Wen Changji thought that the other party didn't understand, so he explained: "His deeper wounds and scales that haven't fully recovered can only grow well with pheromones that go deeper into the body."

"No." Alpha was silent for a while, frowning slightly, "He just came of age, still early."

Wen Changji suddenly smiled.

"That's what you humans think. Mermaids are not slow in this regard," he said, "Believe me, he will accept it smoothly."

Shen Baiyu was speechless again.

"Doctor Wen..." He said helplessly, "At least, this is our private matter."

Wen Changji raised his eyebrows slightly, then nodded to express his understanding.

There was a moment of silence.

"But from a doctor's point of view," Wen Changji held on his glasses, looking very worried, "It's better to mate as soon as possible."

Shen Baiyu: "..."
