Chapter 7 — Mermaid's Bride

After speaking, he lowered his head to look at me, his voice low and soft, containing a unique warmth: "I'm late... is anyone bullying you?" I shook my head: "It's okay. Are you done?" He nodded slightly, the corner of his lips curled slightly: "There's still a bit of work, but it will be done later." Lam Ky and Chu went into the study room to discuss. It came out half an hour later. During that time, Chung Diem Diem clung closely to me, constantly probing Lam Ky's story, and I was questioned until my head hurt. It's so confusing - official girlfriend, but all day long she's focused on getting to know another man. The strangest thing was... Chu Dat sat right next to him, his face still like a calm lake, not saying a word, like a turtle with its neck retracted. I was angry when I suddenly raised my head and saw Chu Dat looking at me, his eyes sad and forbearing. It's like you want to say something, but don't dare say it. I frowned, silently speechless: "What a crazy couple... as expected, they were made in heaven." Luckily, Lam Ky appeared in time to help me get out of this mess. Before I could ask, I saw Father Chu come out, his face as pale as a leaf. As for Lam Ky, the corners of his lips curled slightly, his mood was unusually good. He walked forward, his voice low and full of pampering: "Are you going home?" I looked at him, the corners of my lips curved into a light smile: "Yes, let's go home." 10 I didn't know until later that Lam Ky came to the Chu family, not only to discuss the marriage, but also to help me withdraw my household registration from the Chu family, and at the same time take back all the shares my parents left me, so as not to be appropriated by the Chu family anymore. When I held my personal household registration book in my hand, I quietly shed tears. At that moment, a head gently rested on my shoulder, a low, warm voice, mixed with a bit of cooing, rang in my ear: "Mieu Mieu... can I... appear in your household registration book?" I turned back to look at him, the corners of my lips curled up into a faint smile. I didn't answer, but gave him a kiss as an answer. Perhaps being unexpectedly "attacked" by me, Lam Ky was stunned for a moment, then immediately picked me up and hugged me tightly. The lights dimmed, the whole world seemed to shrink into his arms. Clothes... not even taken off, just heard a "swoosh" sound, the fragile fabric turned into shreds. Under the dim light, he knelt down in front of me, each kiss was careful and respectful, falling from my forehead to my toes, as if offering a divine prayer. At first, he still maintained his gentleness, soft and careful movements. But as time went on... the intense tidal wave of desire swept over, the kiss became urgent and passionate. I couldn't stand it anymore, so I suddenly bit his shoulder hard. He groaned softly, his breathing was disordered, he leaned close to my ear, calling low and hoarse: "Master..." My whole body immediately went limp, as if my whole body had sunk to the bottom of the deep sea. I don't know what the mermaid's body is made of, I only know that... until dawn, he was still not "full". With long arms, long legs, I lay in his arms as if falling into a delicately woven spider web, without any possibility of escape. In each soft plea, each pleading and sobbing look, I was forced but... happy to the point of trembling. That night…the whole room was filled with gasps and voices calling names. The next morning, I had just taken a nap when my phone suddenly rang Echoing. I closed my eyes to answer the phone, my voice hoarse and a bit lazy: "Hello..." On the other end of the line was Co Tinh, Chu Dat's close brother, and the only one in that group of friends who was not fascinated by Chung Diem Diem. "Mieu Mieu, today is Chu brother's birthday, what time will you come? Still at the same place, I still reserved a place for you, Chu Dat even deliberately ordered your favorite blueberry cake..." I calmly interrupted: "Co Tinh brother, I'm not going anywhere. My fiance... is quite clingy, can't bear to leave me even half a step." Without waiting for him to respond, I decisively hung up. Right after that, a strong pair of arms from behind pulled me into a hot chest: "Mieu Mieu... I still want..." I turned around, one hand covering his lips, my voice was hoarse: "No. I don't want to." “I don't want to.” I placed my hand on his lips, cutting off all those sobbing words, but his hot breath still lingered in my ear, with no intention of stopping. At the same time... On the other end of the line, Co Tinh looked at the phone being hung up, his face slightly embarrassed. Actually, from the beginning he didn't want to call, but Chu Dat insisted: "People have blocked your number, don't want to answer the phone, you're still trying to bother... are you planning to humiliate yourself?" When Chu Dat learned that Tri Diem had blocked his contact, he still didn't feel uncomfortable. He only thought that she was still angry with him, so he temporarily avoided her. But when he heard her... call another man "fiance", his heart felt like it was being squeezed by an invisible hand, it hurt, and it was hard to breathe. Up to now, every year on his birthday, Tri Diem has always been the busiest person: • She will choose gifts long in advance • Carefully make cakes by hand • That night, personally cook him a bowl of longevity noodles Every year, she has never forgotten it. But this year… not even a “happy birthday” is left. Chu Dat did not understand where this loss came from. He only felt confused and his chest felt tight as if pressed by a block of stone. Chung Diem Diem stood next to him, gently caressing his hand, her voice softly comforting: "Ah Dat... don't be sad... If you want to eat longevity noodles, I can cook them for you." But Chu Dat was just quiet, his eyes were dark, and he didn't say a word. Just quietly changed the birthday party location, moving straight from Beijing to... Ho Thanh. 11 That morning, Lam Ky left home very early, saying he had something to take care of urgently. I was home alone, so bored that I spun around on the sofa. Bullets immediately appeared, each sentence and each word made me choke: 【I'm about to faint from laughter, Lam Ky finally left that damn office!】 【Usually pretending to be knowledgeable, acting like a quiet scholar, the result... is a tyrannical tycoon passionate about literature.】 【Lam Ky: "I'm... actually an illiterate guy."】 【Don't laugh, the woman doesn't know yet, this mermaid guy. Quiet on the outside, he actually studies the secret to flirting with a wife every day.】 【Yes, that serious person has now turned into a "silent mermaid who loves his wife", closing the office door, researching how to seduce Mieu Mieu 24/7.】 Me: "..." The blood on my face suddenly rose to my ears, the corners of my lips twitched, feeling both embarrassed and funny. I clearly promised you I would never leave you again, but you're still this worried? Out of curiosity, I gingerly pushed open the office door. As soon as the door opened, light streamed in from the window, and the first thing that caught my eye... It was a giant poster. my own, hanging on the large wall opposite my desk. Me: “…” …Who in the world hangs a portrait of his wife in his office, and it's… as big as a movie screen like this?! I thought his desk was probably filled with business documents, but when I walked closer... just one glance, I almost fainted on the spot. On the table are piles of books... full of strange books: • 《How to capture a woman's heart》 • 《Men who know how to pamper... live healthy and long lives》 • 《Men's tears - Women's strongest excitement catalyst》 • 《Husband's temperament - The type of man women can never resist》 Me: “…” … How many seconds was this mermaid serious? I glanced at the bookshelf, which was filled with love novels and a series of "popular science books", including 《How to capture a woman's heart》, 《99 great tricks to make your wife happy》, 《A man's tears - the catalyst that makes women flutter》... I almost laughed out loud.
