“Let’s begin…”

Jun Ye put down his tail fin and approached Gu Jiaoxiu suddenly, closing the distance to just a few centimeters.

The merman’s breath enveloped Gu Jiaoxiu, and his pupils shrank involuntarily as he held his breath.

Then, he felt the merman’s fingers on his tie.

Jun Ye’s slender fingers flicked a few times, and Gu Jiaoxiu’s heart followed the dance of those fingers, beating faster.

In no time, a black tie fell into Jun Ye’s hands.

Jun Ye moved his lips slowly to Gu Jiaoxiu’s ear, mimicking what Gu Jiaoxiu had done to him earlier. He breathed gently on his ear, and with slightly sharp teeth, he bit the red-edged earlobe, saying, “Turn around.”

Cool air drifted along with the merman’s whisper, accelerating the reverse flow of blood in Gu Jiaoxiu’s body.

Gu Jiaoxiu couldn’t hear the murmur clearly. His distracted gaze gradually fell on the merman’s beautiful and almost enchanting face.

His eyes traced the merman’s features, from the slightly raised eyebrows to the lips nearly devoid of color…

Gu Jiaoxiu held his breath.

As if bewitched, uncontrollably…

With slightly parted lips, he leaned forward slowly.

Their lips touched…

“You’re being naughty…”

Gu Jiaoxiu’s attention was entirely focused on the merman’s lips, and he couldn’t analyze what the other was saying.

When the merman opened his mouth again, Gu Jiaoxiu tentatively extended his tongue.

Ah…

Sweet and slightly cool, covered by his own warmth at the moment of contact, it was like the finest sashimi…

Jun Ye’s hand circled around Gu Jiaoxiu’s chest, pulling him away from the dual temptation. He forcefully turned Gu Jiaoxiu’s body.

Pressed against a slightly cool and sturdy figure, with hands firmly held together, Gu Jiaoxiu struggled, his attention still on the merman’s lips.

His sashimi!

The long tie fell onto his wrists, and Gu Jiaoxiu instinctively felt uneasy. He struggled, turning his head to look at the person behind him.

The feeling of being bound was both unfamiliar and familiar. The person behind him exerted strength that made his heart race uncontrollably.

The person behind him lightly bit his earlobe, repeatedly teaching him to keep his hands together.

Then, the person’s skilled fingers danced in front of his eyes, tying a beautiful knot with the tie around his wrists.

Jun Ye saw Gu Jiaoxiu staring at the knot on his wrists and didn’t pay it much attention. With professional technique, he assumed the other wouldn’t be able to break free.

Glancing around, his gaze finally rested on the starfish decoration above the window of the aircraft.

Jun Ye tied the other end of the tie to the decoration, gave it a tug to ensure stability, and then stepped back.

The chest that had been pressed against Gu Jiaoxiu suddenly left, and Gu Jiaoxiu subconsciously tried to turn around to chase after it, only to be held back by the tension in his wrists.

Turning his head to look at what was pulling him, Gu Jiaoxiu’s gaze followed the black tie to the starfish. At that moment, he felt a tap on his back—a gentle reminder.

The force was not heavy, carrying a hint of caution.

Gu Jiaoxiu immediately straightened his body on the water cushion, kneeling as if on command, his response almost as if he had undergone targeted training.

The entire space suddenly fell silent. Except for his own breathing, Gu Jiaoxiu couldn’t hear any other sounds.

Feeling the tension, his heartbeat accelerated little by little. He was waiting… waiting for something to land on him.

He didn’t know exactly what he was waiting for, and his body trembled, his heart contracting and expanding repeatedly.

Nervous yet expectant.

Snap—

A loud slapping sound, once again from that large and powerful entity, like a fan, yet also resembling the sway of a skirt.

Gu Jiaoxiu bit his lower lip, feeling a tingling pain through his pants, and it was that strange mix of unfamiliarity and familiarity.

It was like his favorite sashimi, with different seasoning but the same chef, exuding a secretive warmth.

And there… a more hidden desire.

Smack—

Smack, smack—

Smack, smack, smack, smack—

Amidst the rhythmic slapping sounds, Gu Jiaoxiu had long forgotten his grandiose declaration to make the merman cry. He breathed heavily, each strike scattering his breath.

Sweat covered his forehead, trickling down in droplets, blurring his vision.

His pants became increasingly tight.

His legs were so weak they could hardly support him, and his body gradually bent, the areas being struck becoming exceptionally prominent, as if he was deliberately offering himself for approval.

Gu Jiaoxiu opened his mouth, transparent liquid hanging at the corner of his lips. Something seemed to be stuck in his throat, almost bursting out but unable to make a sound.

Some liquid dropped down, and it was unclear whether it was sweat or tears.

Gu Jiaoxiu’s body swayed with the rhythm of the slapping.

Gasping heavily and gradually turning into sobs, the gasps transformed into a whimpering sound— “Awoo, awoo—”

The calling became more and more proficient, as if he had truly become some kind of creature, bowing before his master, calling out to please, hoping to receive a touch.

Jun Ye leaned against the closed window, silently watching the trembling man, his tail flipping and swaying, his deep eyes like an abyss.

Seemingly feeling that it was enough, Jun Ye let down his tail, crawled forward, and removed the remaining layers of fabric. The tail, once again, lifted from bottom to top.

Smack—

“Aw!” Gu Jiaoxiu’s body tilted forward as it was struck, his gaze momentarily unfocused.



The fragrance of flowers spread.

Jun Ye approached to remove the tie, embracing the now exhausted Gu Jiaoxiu. With one hand holding Gu Jiaoxiu, the other found some tissues to clean up the mess.

Gu Jiaoxiu’s gaze gradually focused, landing on Jun Ye’s face.

Blinking with a hint of grievance, he bit his lower lip and said in a hoarse voice, “You bullied me again.”

“Isn’t this what you agreed to?” Jun Ye reached up, brushed aside the strands of hair dampened by sweat on Gu Jiaoxiu’s forehead, touched it, and then put it back. He pulled up the other man’s pants.

Gu Jiaoxiu suddenly sat up, shook off Jun Ye’s hand trying to fasten his belt, and curled up in the corner of the seat.

After a while, he reached out to lift Jun Ye’s tail and rolled back into a ball.

Jun Ye: “…”

Jun Ye sighed silently, not saying anything more. He leaned back on the other side, his expression unconsciously showing a hint of confusion.

Could there really be someone so similar?

The same sensitive points, the cries of excitement during the slapping, the tail sounds with a similar frequency, and the expression when feeling wronged.

There were many more…

Jun Ye recalled the connection when entering Gu Jiaoxiu’s body.

During the cleaning, if he didn’t look at the other’s face, he might even mistake this person for… his young master.

Perhaps there was another indescribable feeling.

The first time he saw Gu Jiaoxiu, among the many military uniforms, why did he specifically remember this person? Why did he feel exceptionally at ease when lying next to him?

Jun Ye closed his eyes, massaging his temples.

He felt like he might be going crazy, actually proving this kind of thing here.

Proving what? Was the person in front of him really his young master?

Could that be possible…

Lost in thought, Gu Jiaoxiu, who was holding Jun Ye’s tail, began to move.

Jun Ye opened his eyes and saw Gu Jiaoxiu moving cautiously. Gu Jiaoxiu looked at Jun Ye’s face with some concern, raised his hand, and tapped Jun Ye’s forehead. He asked, “Are you exhausted from too much exercise?”

Without waiting for Jun Ye’s answer, he got up, gently touched Jun Ye’s tail fin, and continued, “Does it hurt a lot?”

Jun Ye: “…”

Gu Jiaoxiu hesitated, looking at Jun Ye, and said, “Hold on a bit. I have a therapeutic device at home.”

“Or, would you blow on it for me?” Jun Ye moved his tail fin, patting Gu Jiaoxiu’s palm. He added, “Maybe it won’t hurt after you blow on it.”

This was a method his young master often used to seek comfort.

Observing Gu Jiaoxiu’s expression, Jun Ye sighed silently. He didn’t say anything more and lay down on the other side, his expression unconsciously showing a trace of trance.

Was this person really Gu Jiaoxiu, or was it Joshua? If it was his young master, he would just take care of the other. If not, would he never touch anyone else?

The rubbish system didn’t specify the task, nor did it mention rewards and punishments. He could completely treat it as a free pass for the rest of his life.

Whether it was idly living until death or doing something meaningful, whether it was Earth or the Zerg planet, it was all in the past.

Gu Jiaoxiu…

He is his legitimate partner in this world. His personality is tolerable, and while his face and figure are entirely different from the young master, they are within his acceptable aesthetic range.

Just getting by like this wouldn’t be too bad.

Jun Ye looked out the window, and the spacecraft had already landed. Outside was a two-story villa.

The villa was constructed with a lot of glass, with a spacious pool below, and further away were various plants and a small forest.

It was much better than the scenario he had imagined, with just a bathtub.

Gu Jiaoxiu, catching a glimpse of Jun Ye looking out the window, realized that they had already reached the destination set for the autopilot.

He raised his hand and pressed a round button next to the window, the same color as the interior of the spacecraft, and the door opened on a slant.

Jun Ye’s gaze shifted to that round button, and he raised an eyebrow at Gu Jiaoxiu.

Oh, this was “locking the door,” huh?

Gu Jiaoxiu, pressing his buttocks, calmly stood up.

His gaze swept over Jun Ye from the tail, and he raised his chin slightly. “Does it hurt a lot? Let me hear you call me husband, and I’ll carry you down.”

Jun Ye narrowed his eyes, and his gaze moved from Gu Jiaoxiu’s hand to a certain part he was pressing. He hooked his lips and said, “Do you want me to repeat that phrase word for word?”

Gu Jiaoxiu felt a pain in his lower back, and instantly, his expression turned stern.

He moved his hand from that awkward position to his side and raised his tone. “I was just slapped a few times. Do you think I can’t endure this little pain? Hmph, a joke!”

Saying that, as if to prove his words, Gu Jiaoxiu turned around crisply, took a step down from the spacecraft, and stood upright.

When Gu Jiaoxiu, who was turning around rigidly outside the spacecraft, Jun Ye slid out as well.

Jun Ye was afraid that Gu Jiaoxiu might fall, so he followed closely behind. However, due to Gu Jiaoxiu’s sudden turn and Jun Ye’s close proximity, Gu Jiaoxiu’s nose happened to hit Jun Ye’s chin. Both of them paused as they took a breath.

Gu Jiaoxiu: “…”

Damn, what’s wrong with this height difference!

Does the tail make that much of a difference?! He wouldn’t call him “husband” unless he absolutely had to!

“Hmph!” Gu Jiaoxiu turned around indignantly and continued walking.

After walking for quite a few steps without being called back by the merman, Gu Jiaoxiu gradually sensed a faint sound, like the rustling of a python moving, coming from behind.

Gu Jiaoxiu gritted his teeth in frustration.

Jun Ye, quietly following, gradually realized that something was amiss. It seemed like the other’s speed was slowing down?

Was it because he was in pain?

Jun Ye quickened his pace to catch up but noticed that, in an instant, they were walking side by side. At this moment, Gu Jiaoxiu’s legs were already trembling.

Is it really that painful?

Jun Ye didn’t ask too much and reached out to lift Gu Jiaoxiu.

As his hand was about to touch Gu Jiaoxiu’s arm, Jun Ye faintly felt that something was off.

Gu Jiaoxiu’s face was almost pale, and his wide eyes stared ahead.

Jun Ye followed Gu Jiaoxiu’s gaze and saw ahead—a pool outdoors.

In the middle of the pool, there was a glass-paneled pathway, about half a meter wide, leading straight to the entrance of the villa.

How pitiful can you be to marry a mermaid when you’re scared of water x_x

(Also….Jun Ye…you recognized your loved one from his…. you’re truly something else)
