Part 1

After a long time, Zhuang Yan finally regained his consciousness and thought to himself, who hadn’t heard of the story of the Little Mermaid as a child?

No need to be afraid.

Anyway, he couldn’t see the other party’s face, so he replaced it with Mr. Qin’s face and suddenly he felt much more calm.

He roughly judged Qin Ruoshui’s location, groped the wall and slowly walked over and asked Qin Ruoshui in a low voice: “That… May I ask, if you saved me?”

The other party did not speak, Zhuang Yan blinked, considering the language barrier as a problem, he asked in English and Japanese, Qin Ruoshui listened to the foreign words and the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up a bit.

Still not getting a response, Zhuang Yan scratched his head, reached out and touched the mermaid’s hand, which was cold, slender and as smooth as jade.

Zhuang Yan fell into a trance, he really couldn’t believe this hand belonged to a mermaid. He placed Qin Ruoshui’s hand on the back of his left hand and said: “I want to ask you a few questions, if the answer is yes, you can draw a circle on the back of my hand and if it’s no draw a cross. Is that okay?”

Zhuang Yan realized he made a foolish mistake after saying that. Since they didn’t speak the same language, how could he understand what he said? But what Zhuang Yan didn’t expect was that a circle was drawn on the back of his hand as he spoke.

Things were so mysterious that it took Zhuang Yan a moment to realize what the mermaid was doing on the back of his hand. He looked up sharply, staring at Qin Ruoshui, though in the darkness he could only vaguely sense that in front of him was a huge black shadow.

Zhuang Yan blinked his eyes and asked, “You can understand me?”

Qin Ruoshui’s fingers moved slightly, and Zhuang Yan realized that the mermaid in front of him just couldn’t use human language, but he could understand it.

It was good that they were able to communicate this way. The water moved around him and Zhuang Yan suddenly realized that he was still naked. But it seemed like there were no clothes here, he could wear. He retrieved these messy thoughts, suppressed his blush of shame and continued to ask Qin Ruoshui questions. “Am I still alive then?”

Qin Ruoshui still drew a circle on the back of Zhuang Yan’s hand. He tilted his head to examine the human in front of him, this human didn’t look like he was too smart.

In the future, if he had a child with this human, what should he do if the child inherited his intelligence from this human.

In the next instant Qin Ruoshui regained his senses and conducted a profound self-examination, he should try to suppress the influence of the courtship period and stop thinking of these weird things.

How could a mermaid and a human have children together, when they were separated by species? Was he himself infected with the stupidity of the human?

The stupid human in front of him asked him another stupid question: “Is this the bottom of the ocean?”

Qin Ruoshui was bored as he continued to draw circles on the back of this human’s hand.

The human’s questions were getting more and more boring, and he asked himself again, “Did you save me?”

When Qin Ruoshui moved his finger and Zhuang Yan got an affirmative answer, he somewhat unkindly asked if he could return to the land and when it was possible to go.

This mermaid had a really good temper and answers all of his questions and Zhuang Yan even discovered that he could write human words!

Zhuang Yan concluded in his mind, that this was a really kind-hearted and studious fish.

But this kind-hearted and studious fish and he may have done something unspeakable together. He didn’t know if it was just an imagination caused by his near-death experience or if it really happened, but he needed to ask. So he moved his lips, ready to speak again.

Qin Ruoshui looked at Zhuang Yan’s expression and in his heart he began trying to guess what the human was going to say. After waiting for a while, he heard the human ask himself: “Just now… did we do that?”

After the human said this, a layer of pink appeared on his face to the neck, just like the clouds in the dream. It was odd that the human who initiated the kiss in the dream was so innocent.

He drew a circle.

Zhuang Yan sighed silently in his heart, he never thought that his virginity, which he had kept for so many years would end up being given to a fish. In his fantasies, it was Mr. Qin who invited him to bed, but in reality, it was a man whose face he didn’t know at all! And he was a mermaid!

Since the matter had already come to this point, Zhuang Yan didn’t need to hold onto these useless griefs at all. In the present one should focus on the future, so he asked Qin Ruoshui: “Do you want to do it again later?”

Qin Ruoshui watched the expression on the human’s face change several times in a short period of time. Didn’t the human already agree? Was he unhappy with his skills? Qin Ruoshui immediately ruled out this possibility, when they did it, the human’s expression didn’t look unsatisfied at all.

But no matter what, he was now in his courtship period and it was impossible for this human to go back on his own word.

So he drew another circle on the back of Zhuang Yan’s hand.
