Chapter 138: Chapter 138 Shi Xie, you are not cute at all like this

As she spoke, she swam closer to Shi Xie: "Are you going back home? I’ve never seen what your underwater home looks like. Take me to see it, okay?"

"No." Shi Xie refused decisively.

"Why not?" Xiao Jinsheng grabbed his hand.

"No means no. We have nothing between us, so I can’t take you there." The more Shi Xie spoke, the redder his face became.

Seeing Xiao Jinsheng’s still puzzled expression, he added, "The rules underwater are different from those on land."

A mermaid’s home can only be shown to their contractual totem-bound spouse.

But he had only met Xiao Jinsheng today.

Even if... Even if they were to sign a contractual totem, wouldn’t it be moving too fast?

At this moment, Shi Xie’s mind raced with countless thoughts.

And his thoughts only grew more chaotic.

"But if you don’t take me with you, I don’t know any other mermaids in the deep sea." Xiao Jinsheng lowered her gaze and sighed, her expression filled with hurt:

"I’m just wandering here alone, with no family, no friends to accompany me. Now I can’t even find a place to stay, I can only sleep..."

Xiao Jinsheng glanced around the pitch-black underwater world, hesitated, then said reluctantly, "Sleep in the desolate sea."

"Sigh~" Xiao Jinsheng sighed again.

She looked up and secretly glanced at Shi Xie, who showed no signs of softening his stance, then rubbed her head: "Oh, it hurts! My head hurts so much—"

"What’s wrong?" Shi Xie grew nervous.

Xiao Jinsheng’s face had gone pale, her tail weakly flipping as her figure weighed down toward the abyss.

"Xiao Jinsheng!" Shi Xie shouted in a panic, urgently lunging toward the spot where she was falling, narrowly preventing her from being swept into the deep-sea vortex.

"My chest, it hurts so much." Xiao Jinsheng was cradled in his arms, one hand rubbing her head, the other pressing against her chest.

For a moment, her whole body felt unbearable pain from head to toe.

Shi Xie noticed her pallid face. Her words were only faintly audible as mere whispers.

Without further hesitation, he tightened his hold on Xiao Jinsheng, swimming swiftly toward his residence.

Xiao Jinsheng buried her face against his lightly clothed chest of sheer white silk, her lips curling upward uncontrollably.

Now she understood why Shi Xie liked to feign weakness and illness.
