“Come on.” The mermaid said to him.
Xia Nuo: “…”
Although her appearance is almost the same as that of humans, there are still some places that clearly show the difference between the two.
Miss Mermaid’s fingers are longer, with translucent webs between the fingers, more prominent joints, and sharp nails on the fingertips.
Her skin was too pale, with light blue blood vessels faintly visible.
The mermaid’s voice seemed to have magical powers, Xia Nuo put his hand on it in a strange way, and then he was shocked by the cold touch, and the heat in his whole body disappeared.
Mermaids are supposed to be mammals, right? Why is the body temperature so low?
He thought wildly and then was led by the mermaid step by step down, submerged in the pool.
The little girl was just forgotten by the side. Looking at the scene before her, her eyeballs rolled around and she jumped into the water with her feet, but she chose a place not too close or far from them.
I’m going to wait and see what happens here, she thought.
The water temperature in the pool was just right, according to the servant, it was the deep sea water drawn by their master who pursued the quality of life himself, but Xia Nuo didn’t feel anything special about it.
He was half-soaked in the pool water, and the waves gently caressed his body.
Xia Nuo subconsciously closed the bathrobe again, the clothes are very close-fitting, and they are as light and silky as the servant said, and because of this, Xia Nuo sometimes has the illusion that it doesn’t exist.
Miss Mermaid noticed his movement, followed the boy’s fingers to see his chest, and suddenly smiled slightly: “By the way, you said before that you are here to ask about the necklace?”
Xia Nuo couldn’t help lowering his head following her gaze, and couldn’t help being a little puzzled: Nothing was revealed, what was Miss Mermaid looking at?
At this moment, he was extremely thankful that the bathrobe was not permeable.
Hearing Miss Mermaid’s words, he remembered the purpose of today’s visit, and quickly replied: “Yes, I intend to take on this task, I wonder if you can tell us the specific details of the necklace you lost?”
“You don’t need to use honorifics with me.” Miss Mermaid said so first, she frowned slightly, then thought for a while, and then asked with some uncertainty, “You mean the mission I released three months ago, right?”
Seeing that Xia Nuo nodded, she made a puzzled look: “It’s strange to say, this task is not very difficult, why have you been the only one to take the task for so long?”
Didn’t you let many players shut the door?
Xia Nuo slandered inwardly, and then he heard Miss Mermaid say in a tone as if she had suddenly realised: “This is probably the arrangement of fate!”
Xia Nuo: “…”
“Do you have any characteristics of your lost necklace?” He tried hard to restrain his desire to complain, trying to get the topic back on track.
“Let me think about it.” Miss Mermaid raised the corners of her lips slightly, hiding the teasing in her eyes, “It was a platinum necklace with twenty-six pigeon blood rubies inlaid on it and a heart-shaped pink diamond ring at the bottom. It was a token of love that my father gave to my mother.”
“Then how did it get lost?” Xia Nuo kept the details of the necklace in mind and continued to ask.
“Maybe it was stolen?” Miss Mermaid said casually, “When I attended the Duchess’s banquet, the dress was spilled with wine. After I changed my clothes, I found that the necklace had disappeared. Now that I think about it, it should have been premeditated.”
“With all due respect,” Xia Nuo said after hesitating for a moment, “I feel like you’re not in a hurry to get the necklace back?”
Miss Mermaid nodded, and unexpectedly said, “That’s true.”
Why? Xia Nuo was a little puzzled, but it was explained in the mission that it was a necklace ‘beloved’ by Miss Mermaid, and it was also a token of love from her parents, so it should be very meaningful, right?
Miss Mermaid looked into his swarthy eyes: “Because it wasn’t necessary before.”
Xia Nuo became more and more puzzled. Being stared at by the mermaid, his heartbeat accelerated involuntarily: “This, why is this?”
“That necklace is actually not important. What is important is the ring on it. My parents passed it to me, and it will also be used as my token of love.”
Miss Mermaid had a smile in her eyes, her voice became a little low for some reason, her fishtail swung slightly, and she calmly closed the distance with the boy.
Xia Nuo looked at her somewhat blankly, not realising that the distance between the two was constantly shortening.
“It wasn’t necessary before because I haven’t found someone to send it to, but it’s different now.”
At the same time as she said these words, Miss Mermaid had already swum up to Xia Nuo, looking down at him from a high position.
It was only then that Xia Nuo realised that Miss Mermaid was a little too tall. She stood against the light and the shadow she cast completely enveloped him.
“Chang An, Chang An,” the little girl called Xia Nuo’s name, her voice was a little strange for some reason, “If you really find it difficult, you might as well reject Miss Mermaid.”
“No, it has nothing to do with that matter.” Xia Nuo shook his head, not expressing his doubts.
At this time, they were sitting in a room specially prepared by Miss Mermaid, and she asked her to stay overnight in her mansion tonight.
What the little girl said was a proposal given by Miss Mermaid at the end of the morning conversation.
“Since the necklace was lost in the Duchess’s castle, it must have something to do with her.”
“The Duchess is going to hold a costume party recently. You can attend as my male companion to find clues. How about this?”
Xia Nuo didn’t realise what was wrong at first until he saw the corner of the mermaid’s lips curled up: “A drag party?”
Doesn’t that mean he’s going to wear women’s clothes?
Miss Mermaid nodded, as if she didn’t know why he was surprised: “This is an idea given to her by a human being. I have to say that your group still has a lot of wonderful ideas.”
However, Xia Nuo was about to be tricked to death by this fellow. He tried to struggle: “Can’t I attend the ball in other capacities? Such as a servant, guard or groom?”
Miss Mermaid laughed and ruthlessly pierced his fantasy: “Honey, you can neither drive nor do you have a body that meets the standards of a guard. As for the servant, It is said that we have never hired human beings as servants. Your temperament is not like a male servant serving people, but more like a pampered young master.”
But the most resemblance is a small animal that is suitable for holding in the palm of your hand.
This sentence turned around in her mind, but she still didn’t say it.
“Besides, at the banquet, other men will wear women’s clothes, so there’s nothing shameful about that.” The mermaid added meaningfully, “And my Chang An, you will only be the most beautiful one.”
Xia Nuo didn’t notice that the mermaid took advantage of the address. He lowered his head in frustration, thinking in a broken jar, “I’ve already worn the women’s bathrobes, so what’s the point of women’s clothes?”
I don’t know if it was because he wanted to open it, but he didn’t resist it, but was eager to try it.
He didn’t want to wear that bathrobe before, because he felt uneasy and shy because of exposing his body, but now he is not so repelled by letting him wear a tightly wrapped dress and long skirt.
After all, living in a modern society where information is exploding, it is not uncommon to see bigwigs in women’s clothing.
I’m sorry to say that Xia Nuo is actually quite curious about women’s clothing.
It’s not impossible to try, and he still has so many ‘difficult brothers and sisters’.
Back to the present, the little girl didn’t know about his psychological changes. When she heard his denial, she thought that he couldn’t bear the blow, but she just refused to admit it.
Looking at her ‘I know I won’t tell the truth’ gaze, Xia Nuo was rather dumbfounded.
“You misunderstood, really not.”
But no matter how you explain it, the little girl will probably only think that he is duplicity, right?
In fact, Xia Nuo was really not worried about the upcoming women’s clothing, he was just recalling the scene that surprised him that he saw in the morning.
At that time, as the body of the mermaid continued to approach, the auras of the two even blended together. He don’t know if it was because of Miss Mermaid’s racial characteristics, her breath carried a unique ocean-like moistness and transparency, which made him immediately think of sea salt perfume.
His eyes drooped involuntarily, a little afraid to meet her magical eyes, but in this way, he discovered an extremely strange thing.
——Looking at it from his angle, there was an inconspicuous protrusion on Miss Mermaid’s neck that was originally covered by the collar.
“Is the gender of mermaids fixed?” Xia Nuo suddenly asked.
He remembered that in some dramas, mermaids could change their gender freely.
The little girl froze for a moment, then replied, “Of course.”
If Xia Nuo asked others, he might get an uncertain answer, but the little girl knew about it quite well: “As soon as a mermaid is born, its gender has already been determined. Moreover, in the mermaid group, the proportion of males is much lower than that of females.”
She seemed to know what Xia Nuo was thinking: “Have you read the story about mermaids being able to freely switch genders when they become adults? Maybe other worlds have that setting, but it’s not like this in this world.”
Xia Nuo let out an ‘oh’, and heard the little girl ask, “Why did you suddenly ask this question?”
He wasn’t sure if the scene he saw in the morning was real, so he just shook his head: “It’s nothing, just suddenly curious.”
The little girl didn’t ask any further questions but just showed a thoughtful expression.
“Dear Chang An, can I come in?” There was a sudden knock on the door, and the mermaid’s voice came from outside.
Since the conversation in the morning ended, the mermaid changed Xia Nuo’s address on her own and said that she should get used to it in advance to avoid revealing her secrets at the banquet.
This reason is very good, Xia Nuo has no way to refute, so he can only let her call himself that.
I don’t know why, although it’s for acting, these three words are in her mouth, as if wrapped in honey on the tip of her tongue, with indescribable softness and sweetness.
After Xia Nuo heard it a lot, he no longer shivered suddenly like the first time he heard it, and got used to it by accident.
“Please come in.” He said calmly against the little girl’s teasing gaze.
Then he saw Miss Mermaid open the door and direct the servants to bring in several boxes.
“What is this?” Xia Nuo looked at these heavy boxes, his round eyes sparkled with curiosity.
The mermaid smiled slightly and asked the servant to open the boxes one by one, and the room was filled with brilliance in an instant. There were all kinds of dazzling jewellery, radiant and luxurious fabrics, and all kinds of folding fans with gold, ivory, and precious stones as fan handles.
Xia Nuo was dumbfounded, he suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, he looked at the mermaid, and asked tentatively: “These things?”
“It’s all prepared for you.” The mermaid nodded slightly, confirming his guess.
At this time, Miss Mermaid changed into a pure white gown that could not tell her gender, and her seaweed-like long hair hung down on her chest. The upright fishtail supports her body. I don’t know if it is because of its bonus, but the height of Miss Mermaid seems to have reached two meters.
Xia Nuo：“…”
He suddenly felt that he didn’t want to stand with Miss Mermaid, what should he do?
Thinking of this, he involuntarily looked at Miss Mermaid’s neck, which was still tightly covered by the collar, and there was no abnormality visible for the time being.
But the top priority is to reject these jewellery materials that are very expensive at first glance. Xia Nuo looked at the boxes on the ground and said, “Even if you’re going to a banquet, you don’t need so many things, right?”
“Don’t you like it?” Miss Mermaid asked directly.
“It’s not a question of whether you like it or not, it’s too expensive.” Xia Nuo was a little embarrassed.
“It’s fine if it’s not that you don’t like it.” The mermaid smiled slightly, not taking the boy’s rejection to heart.
She pointed to him one by one: “These materials are used to re-cut the dress for you, and you don’t need to make a lot of them. About fifteen pieces are enough.”
“Fifteen, isn’t that much?” Xia Nuo asked subconsciously.
Just need to attend a banquet and need to prepare so many clothes?
“Because the banquet will be held for three days.” The little girl interrupted suddenly, looking at him with eyes full of sympathy, “One dress at the beginning, one dress at the end, and one dress is changed every morning, noon and evening, and the others are used for emergencies, such as dirty clothes.”
“At the same time, the matching jewellery and the fan in the hand should also be replaced with the change of the dress. These unspoken rules are all to show the rich financial resources and noble status of the guests.”
Xia Nuo：“…”
Banquets in the real world don’t need to be so long!
Moreover, due to physical reasons, he hadn’t attended a few banquets before, and now that he encountered this situation, he suddenly felt dizzy.
Miss Mermaid nodded, and said regretfully, “If it wasn’t for the lack of time, I should have prepared a few more pieces.”
Xia Nuo: Is it too late for me to repent now?
——Obviously, it was too late.
Miss Mermaid enthusiastically instructed the servant to unfold the fabrics one by one for him to choose: “Which fabrics do you like?”
“Red, blue or yellow?”
“Red has pearl red, cherry red, silver red; blue has sapphire blue, peacock blue, lake blue; and yellow has lemon yellow, olive yellow, light yellow.”
“This piece of cloth dyed with starlight stone is also good, it looks like a starry sky.”
Xia Nuo was dizzy. He never knew that there are so many colours of fabrics, but the little girl became interested and went to discuss with the mermaid.
“This colour is better, it complements my little brother’s skin tone.”
“You can also consider black, it matches Chang An’s eyes very well.”
Xia Nuo：“…”
He suddenly became dissatisfied with his figure—why couldn’t he grow taller?
If he had the same figure as Miss Mermaid, he could directly wear her previous clothes without having to suffer this kind of torture!
Without his participation, the little girl and Miss Mermaid happily decided on the colours and materials of the fifteen dresses and chose the matching jewellery and fans. Finally, Miss Mermaid said with unrestrained interest: “My dear, remember to rest early. Tomorrow we will go to the spider’s tailor shop to measure the size.”
Xia Nuo nodded in a daze, he really needed to take a good rest.
The little girl finally left his room, and said rather meaningfully: “I forgot to mention, little brother, when a mermaid courts a mate, she also likes to show off her financial resources and status.”
“Come on.” The mermaid said to him.
Xia Nuo: “…”
Although her appearance is almost the same as that of humans, there are still some places that clearly show the difference between the two.
Miss Mermaid’s fingers are longer, with translucent webs between the fingers, more prominent joints, and sharp nails on the fingertips.
