Shu Jiayi frowned as he looked at his watch. It was two o'clock at night and Xiao Qing had not come out since afternoon. He didn't eat in the morning or at noon, and after making a scene with her in the afternoon, he didn't even leave the house. He reached out and knocked on the door again.
"Little Qing, Little Qing, Big Brother was wrong. Can you come out and hit Big Brother?”
“…………”
No one spoke in the room. After a pause, Shu Jiayi thought that Xiao Qing might have fallen asleep, so he dragged his tired body into the room. However, just as he finished showering and was about to lie down, he heard a high-pitched scream coming from Xiao Qing's room.
"Ah!"
Shu Jiayi quickly jumped down from the bed. He didn't care that he was not wearing his shoes. He knocked on the door and shouted worriedly,"Little Qing, what happened? Can you open the door?"
In the room, Xiao Qing looked at the changes in her body in disbelief. She had come out of Shu Jiayi's room. Because she was too sad, she wanted to stay in the water for a while to let the water calm down. Perhaps she was tired from crying, so she fell asleep in the bathtub. When she opened her eyes and saw the changes in her body, she screamed in fear. Her snow-white legs were gone, and in their place was a long and bright tail, like a fish! Staring at its own tail in a daze, Qing Zhu praised itself in its heart. This is not real, this is not real, this is a dream, this is not real, this is not real.
Shaking its head, Qing Zhu covered its ears in pain. Eh, why are their ears pointy? Qing Zhu struggled to sit on the bathtub and looked at herself in the mirror. She looked like a fairy on TV. There was a head of silver hair that reached to the waist, and its ears were sharp. It looked down at its lower body and saw a silver tail that looked like a fish. There were a few qilins. Hearing Shu Jiayi's voice outside, Little Green screamed in pain,"This can't be true! It's not true!"
How could he be a monster?？？How could she like Shu Jiayi…
"Ahhh!"
Shu Jiayi, who was outside, heard the screams inside. His heart ached as if someone had grabbed it. She was even more flustered as she knocked on the door and shouted,"Little Green, Little Green!" Open the door!"
Hearing the commotion, Papa Shu, Mama Shu, and Shu Jiake all came out of their bedrooms and gathered at the door of Qing Zhu's bedroom. "Big Brother, what happened to Little Qing?" Shu Jiake asked nervously.”
"Jiayi, did something happen to Little Qing?”Papa Shu came to Xiao Qing's door and knocked on it with Shu Jiayi.
"Dad, it's all my fault. I didn't take good care of Little Green." Shu Jiayi looked at Papa Shu apologetically.
"It's fine. Has Little Green not opened the door?”Papa Shu, who didn't know the truth, patted Shu Jiayi's shoulder to reassure him.
Looking at his father's expression, Shu Jiayi decided to hide it. If his father knew, he would definitely go crazy. Concealing his emotions, Shu Jiayi continued to knock on the door.
"Jiayi, Jiayi, let mommy do it.”At this moment, Mama Shu held a bunch of keys in her hand. She found a key with the word " Xiao Qing " written on it and began to guard the door. The door opened. The group of people came in and looked at every corner of the room, but they did not find anyone. Everyone frowned. Something was wrong. They clearly heard Little Green's voice. Jiake looked at Xiaoqing's window. It was closed and the wall in the courtyard was very high. It couldn't have been kidnapped.
The family went to the bathroom that hadn't been tested yet. Mama Shu knocked on the door and asked tentatively,""Little Qing, are you inside?"
Qing Zhu looked nervously at the tightly locked bathroom door and the figure outside, not daring to make a sound. What should he do? She looked so scary…
"Little Qing, are you inside?" Mama Shu asked again. After many inquiries, no one answered. The father and son of the Shu family, who were outside the bathroom, looked at each other, nodded, and prepared to knock on the door.
"Bang…"
One, two…
Little Green counted the sounds of the collision and was afraid to put more water in, ready to cover itself.
Who could save her? She was so scared…
"Dad, Mom, wait!”
When the Shu family heard that there was finally a voice coming from inside, they instantly heaved a sigh of relief."Little Qing, you scared daddy to death. What are you doing inside? He doesn't speak either."
"Oh, I was showering and accidentally fell asleep.”Qing Zhu tried to sound normal.
"Xiao Qing, open the door and let mom in to see if you're okay.”Mama Shu said worriedly.
"No need, Mom. You'll all go, right? You came to my place in the middle of the night. I'm embarrassed to listen to you. Go back to sleep."
"Wretched girl, you also know that it's the middle of the night! She even went to take a shower in the middle of the night and fell asleep. I really have to hand it to you! Be careful not to catch a cold." Shu Jiake leaned against the door frame of the bathroom and found fault.
Listening to Shu Jiake's words, Xiao Qing's tears flowed down. She thought of Shu Jiake's words that morning,""Why do you have to take care of him until he grows old? He doesn't treat you well. He always looks like you owe me money. He doesn't even care when you talk to him. I treat you so well, but you hate me.”
"I don't know either. It's just that feeling. It's the feeling of wanting to take care of him for the rest of his life.”
Feelings could sometimes lie.
Qing Zhu smiled bitterly and shouted towards the door,""Brother Jiake, let mom and dad go back to sleep. I'm fine. Thanks to you, I won't catch a cold!”
"Then, Xiao Qing, your mother and I will go back to sleep. Let them accompany you for a while.”Papa Shu yawned and walked out of Qing Zhu's room with his arm around Mama Shu's waist.
"Brother Ke, did Mom and Dad leave?”
"Yeah," she said.
"Who else?"
"Big brother."
Hearing Shu Jiake's answer, Xiao Qing was stunned. She didn't want her brother to see her in such a sorry state. Moreover, she didn't know how to face Shu Jiayi.
"Brother Jiake, you and big brother can leave. I'm fine.”
"Are you really alright?" Shu Jiake asked.
"Yes." Little Qing replied softly.
After about five minutes, Xiao Qing felt that everyone should have left. She looked at herself, who had returned to her human form, and wrapped herself in a bathrobe. Qing Zhu quickly closed the door and lay quietly on the bed. Thinking about the scene just now, she was a little frightened.
When he was young, he had read stories about mermaids, but they all felt that it was a fairy tale. He had also fantasized that he would be that mermaid. However, when he found out that he was a creature that only appeared in fairy tales, he really could not accept it. Shaking her head, Qing Zhu placed her hand on her chest and thought about what her mother had said."Little Qing, when you're 14 years old in the future, you can't bathe too long.”
"Why?"
"That's not good for your health. Also, you can't eat seafood, especially fish, understand?
"Why?"
"You'll be allergic. Her body would be very uncomfortable. Moreover, Xiao Qing, it would hurt. I'm afraid you won't be able to take it."
It turned out that his mother had known this fact long ago. Since she was a mermaid, her mother must also be a mermaid. And her mother's life was not taken away by the sea. Her mother had only returned to her home. Thinking that her mother was not dead, Xiao Qing's mood was not so heavy. She only blamed her mother for not taking her with her back then. Seriously, she had been sad for so many years.
