After marrying the mermaid boss

The corridor leading to the top floor of the annex building is not very bright, but it is very quiet.

So any sound will be infinitely amplified.

Uncle Chen could hear his own footsteps, but Mr. Bai Jian's was very soft.

Si Yue's voice clearly diffused from the receiver of the phone.

"Can you describe it in detail?"

There was a gentle smile in Bai Jian's eyes.

"brave."

"Perseverance."

Bai Jian's knuckle-boned fingers lightly turned on the light in the corridor. He is elegant and graceful, and no matter what movements he makes, he looks very eye-catching.

"Pure goodness."

Si Yue didn't expect it to be such a type, he frowned tightly, this was not the same as the type he liked in his cognition, if he asked Zhou Yangyang and the others, or heard his classmates discussing it in school.

They are all "round, big eyes, bright red face, long hair" or something. If you want to show that you don't judge people by appearance, you will add a sentence "Actually, I don't have particularly high requirements for appearance, but character must be It's better", but Si Yue observed later that what they did was different from what they said.

And good character is just a general summary.

Si Yue tentatively asked Bai Jian on the other end of the phone: "What about the appearance? What do you like?"

"Can you give me an example?" Bai Jian's tone sounded more gentle from the phone.

"Like me."

Uncle Chen: "..."

Bai Jian was thoughtful, "Then, it seems to meet my requirements for a partner."

Uncle Chen felt that this layer of window paper should be about to be pierced at this moment.

But what he didn't expect was that before Mr. Bai Jian had time to say the rest, Master Ayue said "Okay, I understand", and then quickly hung up the phone.

Bai Jian stopped for a while, took the phone from his ear, chuckled, looked back at Uncle Chen, and asked, "Chen Qian, what do you think Ah Yue is thinking?"

Uncle Chen thought for a while and said, "Master Ah Yue...has his own ideas."

"Mr. Bai Jian, maybe you can try to speak directly to Master Ayue."

Bai Jian thought for a moment, "Ah Yue has her own way and rhythm in doing things. I'm afraid he won't be able to accept it for a while after he gets used to it."

The mermaid is a strange creature. When he has no partner, he is like a learning machine or working machine without emotions and desires. But once he finds a partner, he will devote two-thirds of his energy to studying and working. Your partner, and at the same time ensure that the quality of work and study remains unchanged.

This is a unique biological attribute of mermaids. For them, a partner is equivalent to oxygen and life.

Bai Jian hoped that Ah Yue could get through this period quickly, he was indeed no longer satisfied with the occasional touch.

Si Yue was scratching his head in the room at the moment, he turned out the tablet and listed his advantages on a whole page.

Among them, handsome is written in the first line.

The rest, such as: the indomitable spirit, the courage to go forward... At the end of the writing, he felt that he was really, really good, and except for his short life span, the others could almost be called perfect.

Next, this is how to make Bai Jian like him too.

Known conditions: Bai Jian's favorite appearance type is his type.

Unknown: Unknown except for appearance.

Si Yue bit the nib of the ipad pen, he never chased others, but was chased by someone, would Bai Jian like chocolate and roses?Or a balloon sports car or something, but he doesn't have money for a sports car right now.

Si Yue wrote behind the plan: to be determined.

He likes excitement and challenging things. He likes Bai Jian, so he will take the initiative to attack. Besides, the life-threatening friendship between him and Bai Jian will greatly increase the possibility of him chasing Bai Jian.

Si Yue directly ignored Bai Jian's almost explicit words.

He is immersed in the fact that he has someone he likes and I can't extricate himself from the drive to take him down.

And because he was so excited, he didn't fall asleep until the middle of the night.

It was already afternoon when he woke up again, and he hadn't forgotten that it was Bai Yiti's funeral at night.

It was foggy outside the window, the rain stopped in the middle of the night, the air still seemed damp, and even the fog seemed to still hold raindrops that did not shake off.

Si Yue stood in the living room, and Uncle Ren Chen pinned a white rose on his chest. Behind the rose was a bow made of transparent crystals and ribbons.

"Ms. Bai Yiti specially instructed that everyone who attends the funeral should bring a white rose, for fear of forgetting, so Mr. Bai Jian ordered in advance to make a brooch." Uncle Chen said slowly.

Si Yue lowered her head, "Are you going?"

"Family cannot be separated from people," Uncle Chen said with a smile, "I won't go."

When Bai Jian came down, Si Yue heard footsteps on the stairs, and glanced up, her eyes obviously became unnatural.

He recalled how he greeted him before.

Bai Jian went downstairs, smiled at Si Yue, raised her hand and stroked his hair, "Have you had breakfast well?"

There was ridicule in his eyes, because Si Yue woke up too late, they even had lunch, and Si Yue got up later for breakfast.

"Auntie cooked a big bowl of seafood noodles." Si Yue replied honestly, "The crabs and shrimps are very fresh, but I think we can put a little curry next time."

Bai Jian listened carefully to what he said, then nodded, "Okay, I'll talk to auntie later."

"Let's drive by ourselves, or..."

"Separately, I will be with my second brother, Ayue, you will be with my brother." Bailu looked more haggard than the previous two days, and he stood beside Bai Yuanye, "If we don't, it's inconvenient because there are too many people."

Si Yue nodded, indicating that he understood.

It was just what he wanted, and he also wanted to be with Bai Jian.

In the car, Si Yue was not as comfortable as at home.

The space inside the car is obviously quite large, but Si Yue felt a little cramped when He Bai Jianjian stayed in it alone.

He leaned against the window and glanced at Bai Jian.

Bai Jian was looking at a report in English on his tablet. He couldn't go to the company today, and he did most of the work at home.

Probably because he was too focused on his work, he didn't notice that the human cubs beside him were looking at him wantonly.

Si Yue likes this feeling.

He likes Bai Jian, he is the active side in the bright place, and Bai Jian is the passive side in the dark place.

He seldom looked at Bai Jian so seriously like now, because Bai Jian's vigilance is too high, even mermaids are very vigilant.Often his gaze falls on Bai Jian within a few seconds, and the latter will quickly notice it, and then ask him "A Yue, what are you looking at".The gentle tone made Si Yue's heart tighten every time, as if even if he said he didn't see anything, Bai Jian had already seen through him.

He knew the answer, so he asked knowingly.

The appearance of Bai Jian wearing glasses will be more elegant and gentle. If it is ancient times, she should be a standard scholar.

It seems to be the same now.

It's just that the current Bai Jian is more of a mask of modesty and politeness. Si Yue can feel that besides gentleness and generosity, there are more other things in Bai Jian.

He is not like those gentlemen who have nothing but gentlemanly demeanor.

Bai Jian's eyelashes are also very long, her nose is also very straight, and her skin is also very fair, which is different from the healthy reddish fairness of human beings. Bai Jian's complexion is cold white like frost and snow, and has always been cold white, because Merfolk don't blush for any reason.

Si Yue remembered that it was said in the book that the capillaries under the mermaid's skin were not as abundant as those of humans, but the fish scales behind the ears were extremely active—the emotions in the mermaid's body would be quickly conveyed to them for them to respond.

Emotions that make humans blush also make fish have more or less scales behind their ears.

"Bai Jian, you are so handsome." Si Yue suddenly said.

After he finished speaking, he immediately leaned back to look behind Bai Jian's ears. His eyesight was very good, and he didn't see scales appearing behind Bai Jian's ears.

Bai Jian turned her head, "What did you say?"

Si Yue was slightly disappointed, "It's nothing."

Bai Jian looked at him for a while, put the tablet aside, and said in a leisurely manner, "A Yue, why did you suddenly ask me about the type of person I like last night?"

Si Yue thought that Bai Jian had forgotten.

After all, he never mentioned it at home before.

He was about to look out the window to relieve his tension, but he only saw the forest area shrouded in fog, and he was forced to turn his eyes back.

"Yes, I'm curious." Si Yue didn't want to scare Bai Jian, he felt that now is not a good time to confess, there is no good weather, no candies and chocolates, and no other gifts, he should learn from others and write a letter The love letter should be more formal, so as not to make Bai Jian feel that she offended him, because Bai Jian is a person who respects rules.

He feels that an old demon like Bai Jian who has lived for hundreds of years... a mermaid, has seen countless tricks of chasing people, so if he wants to impress Bai Jian, he needs to draw it slowly, using the method of boiling a frog in warm water. Way.

"Bai Jian, I have a question for you." Si Yue moved to Bai Jian's side, his thighs were about to touch each other, and he slapped Bai Jian's thigh with a deep expression.

Bai Jian: "Well, you ask."

"Why have you been single for so many years?" Si Yue really wanted to know this point, after all, human beings knew about falling in love in kindergarten, and Bai Jian had been single for nearly 300 years.

"Then if you're single, how do you usually solve that problem? Like us humans, do you rely on this?" Si Yue raised her hand.

His fingers are beautiful, his nails are neatly trimmed, and there are no fancy ornaments on his fingers, only a ring, which he wears obediently all the time.

"Well, yes." Bai Jian's expression was calm.

Si Yue thought for a while, "Will you feel offended if I ask this kind of question?" Even if you like the other party, you must respect the other party. If Bai Jian feels offended, he should learn to restrain himself and not do things that the other party doesn't like.

"No." A conniving smile flashed across Bai Jian's eyes, "I won't feel offended if you ask me anything." His connivance was too blatant, but Fan Siyue should be able to feel it no matter how long he was.

But now, he is immersed in the fact that he is the active side, unable to extricate himself.

Even the driver glanced back, and couldn't help but sigh that Mr. Bai Jian and Master Ayue have such a good relationship.

The funeral was originally arranged at the funeral parlor, but Bai Yiti told her in her last words that she hoped to hold the funeral at home.

Fortunately, the Bai family's villa was spacious enough, with three buildings on the left, middle and right. Because Bai Yiti ordered the funeral to be simple, her children didn't want to make a big deal. They only prepared for two days before the funeral began.

It's just that there is no way to completely cover up the news. As soon as Bai Yiti passed away, the news leaked out of the hospital. In the past two days, the Bai family's phone calls have not stopped from morning to night, and the guests have been in their twenties since the beginning. The number of people increased to more than 100, not counting the fact that they said later that they did not need an invitation, and only wanted to come to the funeral to mourn Ms. Bai Yiti.

The Bai family had no choice but to expand the scale of the funeral.

Since the day of Bai Yiti's death, friends and fans of her life have been sending wreaths one after another. It is well known that Bai Yiti likes white roses, so everyone only used white roses in a tacit understanding.

Si Yue's car drove half a circle around the fountain in the yard before stopping at the door. The doorman immediately ran up to open the door. His eyes were still red and his voice was hoarse: "Mr. Bai Jian, good evening."

After Si Yue got out of the car, Bai Jian stretched out her hand to hold him, and Si Yue put her hand on Bai Jian's very naturally, as if she had done this action thousands of times.

It wasn't until he followed Bai Jian into the door that he realized that his ears were more than half red.

But he had to pretend to be calm to deal with the people who came up to say hello to him and Bai Jian.

"Mr. Bai Jian, long time no see." The lady holding a white rose was wearing a small black suit, a tight-fitting hip-wrapping skirt, curly hair, and a certain black top hat. She looked extremely elegant and beautiful.

After she finished asking Bai Jian how she was, she looked at Si Yue who was at the side, "This is your partner, is it Si Yue?"

There is a smile in the lady's beautiful eyes.

Si Yue held Bai Jian's hand tightly, "Hello."

"You are a very handsome human cub." Wan Yao sincerely praised.

Although he is wearing an unobtrusive black windbreaker, Si Yue has a tall and straight figure, with the energy and vigor that only cubs can have. His facial features are delicate and weak when viewed separately, but when they appear together on his face At that time, it looked extraordinarily three-dimensional and heroic.

But just looking at his eyes, he should be very attractive.

Very handsome, human cub?

Si Yue thought this compliment was weird, but she still said thank you.

"You don't know me?" Wan Yao was a little surprised by Si Yue's indifferent reaction.

Si Yue showed a puzzled expression, "You are..."

Bai Jian patted Si Yue's head, "Ms. Wan Yao is the actress, she has won many awards, and she starred in "Stealing Time" that you watched with Bai Lu last week."

"Totally, I can't tell." Si Yue was a little surprised.

Because Wan Yao is now dressed like a flirtatious girl, flamboyant but not romantic.But the heroine in that movie is a teenage girl who loves literature and has a pure heart. After being cheated by several men, she gave birth to a child, and finally turned to her career and became a well-known local female entrepreneur.

It was rare for Wan Yao to meet such a sincere child, and she couldn't hide her liking in her eyes, "I'll just take it as you are praising me."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Bai Jian reproachfully and said, "Where did you pick up the cub, give me a raise as well, so I can pass the time."

Si Yue didn't quite understand.

Bai Jian's smile faded, and even Si Yue could feel it.

"Miss Wan Yao, be careful."

Wan Yao's face turned pale, and she immediately said, "Sorry."

Bai Jian led Si Yue upstairs. Although the funeral was in the hall on the first floor, before the funeral officially started, everyone was free to wander around. The second floor was the resting area of ​​the Bai family.

"What's wrong with her? Did she say the wrong thing?" Si Yue didn't understand why Bai Jian suddenly changed his face.

"It's not wrong," Bai Jian said softly, "but it's too frivolous."

Si Yue: "I think it's okay. I think she's very interesting and good-looking. Is she also a mermaid?"

"Ayue, you are my partner. They respect you as much as they respect me." Bai Jian rubbed Si Yue's hair with a gentle tone.

Older mermaids like to tease human children.

It's not malicious, but we should also look at each other's identities.

When Si Yue heard Bai Jian say "you are my partner" before, he just felt a little uncomfortable, but now there is something else, like happy, bursting with joy, he almost floated when he walked up.

But before entering the room, Si Yue's expression calmed down.

Bai Jian patted him on the back, "Go find something to eat, the egret is over there."

Bailu arrived before them and was sitting with Bai Yuanye at the moment, holding a big chocolate flow cake in his hand.

But both Bai Lu and Bai Yuanye's expressions were not very good at the moment.

Si Yue walked over, grabbed a few plums and threw them into her mouth, "What's wrong?"

Bai Lu's eyes were red, "Second brother asked me to move in with him, but I said no, he was angry."

Bai Yuanye: "... Didn't I say not to tell others?" He frowned, feeling very displeased with Bailu's big mouth.

After he finished talking about Bailu, he looked up at Si Yue, "Sister-in-law."

"..."

"En." Si Yue responded.

Bai Lu stuffed a large piece of the cake into his mouth, "I just went to see the photo of my aunt, woo woo woo, I'm so sad, do you think she will be a mermaid in the next life?"

Si Yue thought about what Bai Jian said before, and after a while she slowly said: "Maybe, she wants to be a human being."

"Well, I admit," Bai Lu put down the cake, "it's really good to be human."

"Where is it good?" Si Yue also wanted to know this question.

The egret replied sadly: "Mermaids generally don't gain weight, but if they gain weight, they can't swim in the water and are easily hunted and killed by creatures that are bigger and fiercer than us, and they are also prone to drowning due to their inability to swim. die."

Si Yue: "..."

"Then you should eat less." Si Yue looked at the cake in Bailu's hand, which was at least six inches in size, and he had eaten most of it.

"Isn't my tail stunted? I'm not fat." Egret licked all the butter off the fork with his tongue. After licking, he looked at Si Yue sadly, "A Yue, I envy you so much, my brother I like you so much, Uncle Chen also likes you, everyone likes you, but the person who likes me the most is dead now." After he finished speaking, tears burst out.

Si Yue immediately took two paper towels to help him wipe away his tears, but there were too many tears, and I don't know if it was a unique attribute of mermaids. Si Yue couldn't wipe it clean, so he directly covered the egret's eyes with a roll of toilet paper live.

Bai Lu: "... woo woo woo woo." He opened his mouth wide and howled, the cream on the corners of his lips hadn't been wiped off.

"Sister-in-law, let me do it." Bai Yuanye took over the important task expressionlessly.

Si Yue feels that Bai Yuanye is still very good at talking, unlike Bailu.

Bai Yiti's youngest daughter is called Bai Sheng.

She was wearing a black dress with a small shawl on it. After everyone exchanged greetings with Bai Jian, she walked up to Bai Jian with red eyes, "Mom has something for me to give to you alone."

After the two left, Second Uncle Bai and Third Uncle Bai started talking to each other.

"Don't show us anything good?"

"Mom, it's true. If you want me to tell you, we two brothers should share things equally. Don't share with that girl Bai Sheng. What's the use of her holding it, why don't you give it to us and make a big career out of it!"

"How about, let's go secretly and see what good things Mom left for Bai Jian."

"...No, I won't go, turn around and let Bai Jian hear us outside the door, and deduct the bonus, I won't go, I'll go to you."

Bai Sheng led Bai Jian to the top floor of the building on the left, with many twists and turns. The semi-elliptical gate was covered with rust and was hung with a huge iron lock.

The pattern carved on the door is a mermaid.

She struggled to open the door, and inside the door was a hall, like a church, with neat and orderly benches on both sides of the aisle, and various hand-painted patterns on the walls on both sides, but they were all related to mermaids.

"There are no electric lights here." Bai Sheng apologized.

Bai Jian said calmly, "No problem."

At the end of the hall, there is another door. This time, you only need to enter the password, pull the door bolt, and hold the door handle and force it outward. The cold air that hits your face makes you breathless.

Bai Sheng shivered coldly, his whole body was shrouded in white mist.

With chattering teeth, she took out a test tube and handed it to Bai Jian.

"My mother asked me to give this to you." Bai Sheng was trembling all over, his face turned blue in an instant. You can imagine how low the temperature here is. "This is 20 milliliters of blood drawn from the ancestor's body back then, and it has been purified. , It can be used directly after rewarming, this... this can reduce the risk of your partner transforming into a mermaid, at least... at least it won't suspend the immune system."

"She has always wanted to give it to you, but you have never found a partner, and she doesn't know...doesn't know how to open the mouth. She gradually became ill and often forgot things. Last time...she said to bring I don’t know why, but it’s a necklace.” Bai Sheng’s eyes welled up with tears, “Mom, she’s so pitiful.”

The temperature of the liquid in the test tube was much lower than Bai Jian's body temperature.

He looked at the frozen blue liquid in the test tube for a long time before saying, "Thank you for your hard work."

Back then, those events happened suddenly and chaotically, no one thought about what the future would be like, and the ancestor sank directly into the bottom of the sea after his death.

Bai Sheng thought of the companion Bai Jian brought - a human cub, innocent and ignorant.

"Is he willing?" Bai Sheng said, "If he is forced to change, he will be very painful."

Bai Jian smiled, "I don't know."

Bai Sheng was slightly taken aback, she had never seen a blank expression on Mr. Bai Jian's face.

"Then, store this with me for the time being, because I won't stay here anymore, I will go abroad," Bai Sheng said, "Can you build such a cold storage within three days? Temperature and other requirements I'll send it to your assistant later."

Bai Jian nodded, "Yes."

Bai Jian went downstairs first.

Although Si Yue said that she wanted to become a mermaid, it was only because she didn't win the fight. The young man's mood was momentary, and she didn't know what species conversion meant.

Abandoning one's original species attributes and genes can be said to be sacrifice and betrayal.

He hoped that Si Yue did it voluntarily, not because of pressure and compulsion from all sides.

There is a big difference between voluntary choice and forced choice.

And even if Ah Yue is not a mermaid in the end, so what, he has lived for 300 years, and he knows the unreliability and cheapness of skins. He is Ah Yue, he was Ah Yue, and he was Ah Yue when he was 80 years old. The last day of my life, and the loneliness and loneliness that followed in my life had nothing to do with Ah Yue, and it was considered very complete.

Si Yue is playing cards with a group of young people, and only knows a few people, Bai Lu, Bai Yuanye, and Bai Ran.

It was the elders of the Bai family who were afraid that the younger ones would be bored waiting, and asked them if they wanted to play video games or cards. Si Yue was originally pulled together by Bai Ran.

Funerals are like this, except for a few close relatives and friends who will be sad, others are out of social, or formality.

But there are also sad people in this group, such as egrets, such as Bai Ran, but on this occasion, it is obviously mentally retarded to do so.

Egret whipped out a 2.

The boy next to him exploded immediately, "Si Yue is the landlord, Si Yue is the landlord, I accept it!"

Si Yue won many times in a row, and he collected the money happily. The others said, "You are so good, did Bai Jian teach you?"

"Is it because Bai Jian didn't give you pocket money usually, so you are trying your best to win us at this time?"

"Damn humans!"

"hateful!"

As soon as Bai Jian came in, what she heard was Si Yue talking triumphantly.

"I don't have a teacher, so I still use him to teach?"

"He is my partner, his money is my money, and I still need him to give it?" Si Yue felt that her acting skills were still very good.

"Who is hateful?" But it is not enough to say that human beings are hateful.

"..."
