Chapter 10: The carp leaps over the Dragon Gate

Recap

The screen shows a fingerprint error.

Rong Yu murmured: “Why did it not work?”

Gu Minghuai’s lips curled: because he used the fingerprint of his right hand.

“Is it necessary to shed blood for it to recognize the master?” Rong Yu murmured to himself.

Gu Minghuai: “?”

The next second, Rong Yu leaned forward and took Gu Minghuai’s finger into his mouth.

His fingertips were surrounded by the soft mouth, feeling numb and slightly itchy. Gu Minghuai’s fingertips trembled, and he instinctively wanted to pull his fingers out.

Rong Yu held his hand and gently licked it with the tip of his tongue. His long eyelashes were slightly drooped, his expression focused, and his red lips glowed with an attractive color.

Gu Minghuai’s mind went blank for a moment.

The spiritual energy value instantly increases by 2%.

It took him a long time to hug before to accumulate that little spiritual energy value, but now he increased it by 2% by licking Gu Minghuai’s finger. Rong Yu seemed to have discovered a new world of wealth. He quickly sucked a few more mouthfuls, but did not notice that Gu Minghuai’s expression was gradually getting weird.

“Xiao Yu’er, let go.” His voice was deep.

Rong Yu said vaguely: “A little while.”

The tip of his tongue hooked onto Gu Minghuai’s finger.

Gu Minghuai’s breath froze for a moment. He hurriedly picked up the phone and unlocked the fingerprint lock with his right hand. The screen showed that the payment was successful.

“Okay, let go.” Gu Minghuai’s eyes darkened.

Rong Yu: Does he think I’m sexy?

Blood Jade Bracelet: Do you want to hear the truth? He thinks that you are dirty.

Rong Yu: Impossible. He paid for me. Didn’t the honey trap succeed?

“I bought you everything you want to eat.” Gu Minghuai’s breathing was messy and he was extremely forbearing. “Don’t bite my finger. There are at least 400,000 bacteria on human hands, and there are more in your mouth.”

“…”

Rong Yu spat the finger out expressionlessly: “Bah.”

Gu Minghuai immediately rushed to the bathroom to wash his hands. He spent a lot of time in the bathroom today, and everything was thanks to Rong Yu’s blessing.

Rong Yu sat on the bed in disbelief, furious.

“How dare he despise me!”

Blood Jade Bracelet gloated: I’ve already said he has severe mysophobia.

How could the Lord God be easily bewitched by a great devil like you?

Rong Yu hugged the quilt and huddled together, his face full of dissatisfaction: “I insist on curing him.”

Blood Jade Bracelet: What can you do?

Rong Yu said fiercely: “There must be a way.”

Think he is dirty? He has never suffered such grievances, so he must vent his anger!

Gu Minghuai stared at his fingers in front of the mirror in a daze.

There were wet stains on his fingertips, which reminded him of the scene when the young man lowered his head and took his fingers into his mouth. It does not feel cold and sticky like fish scales, it felt warm, soft and comfortable.

For a moment he couldn’t bear to take his finger out.

Gu Ming suddenly came to his senses and quickly turned on the faucet to wash his hands.

Damn it, what was he thinking just now?

It seems that not only does he need to wash his hands, but he also need to wash his face to clear his mind.

Gu Minghuai came out of the bathroom ten minutes later, looking much better.

It’s just that the way he looks at Rong Yu is not very natural.

He said to Rong He earnestly: “Xiao Yu’er, you are part human now. You need to change your bad habits when you were a fish. You can’t bite my hand anymore.”

Rong Yu had taken his finger in his mouth when he was still a carp, so Gu Minghuai naturally didn’t think much about it at that time. But a human being is a different matter.

Rong Yu looked at him: “I’m hungry.”

Gu Minghuai said: “The takeout will be here soon. I am serious. Are you listening?”

Rong Yu said lazily: “I know.”

Knowing is one thing, doing it is another.

It’s a pity that Gu Minghuai didn’t understand the implication behind his words so he breathed a sigh of relief at the moment, feeling that Xiao Yu’er was finally obedient.

There’s nothing wrong with rewarding him with a big meal.

Gu Minghuai completely forgot how he made up his mind not to spoil Rong Yu.

Twenty minutes later, the takeout arrived and Gu Minghuai carried it in. Without opening the bag, he knew that there was another pile of stuff inside that would make him vomit. He divided the meal into two portions, one rich and one light, one each for Rong Yu and him. Then he went to the kitchen and took out two pairs of silver chopsticks and put them in – he never used disposable chopsticks.

Gu Minghuai planned to eat separately from Rong Yu, otherwise he would starve to death at home sooner or later.

Rong Yu said it didn’t matter to him, so long as he had food to eat. He wasn’t interested at all in the simple meals Gu Minghuai ate.

Gu Minghuai took Rong Yu’s meal into the bedroom and went to the dining room to eat. The two ate their meals separately and settled down happily on their own.

He did not move his muscles much today so the water value is still 85%, there is no need to worry about it for the time being. The spiritual energy value stopped at 68%, it has not reached the 80% mark for a long time.

Rong Yu: “I’ve been hugging him for a day and night, why doesn’t my spiritual energy increase?”

Blood Jade Bracelet: Trivia: The water level in the swimming pool will not rise if it is storing water and draining it at the same time.

Even after absorbing spiritual energy for a day, maintaining the mermaid state itself consumes spiritual energy. It is absorbed and consumed at the same time, that is the reason why the increase is slow and gradual.

Rong Yu: “That’s okay. All I have is time.”

The Blood Jade Bracelet reminded him: You don’t have much time. Chi Yu’s candle can only keep burning for one year. If the soul lamp is not lit within a year, it will go out.

In other words, Rong Yu must complete the task within one year.

Rong Yu still had no sense of urgency: “What’s the rush? There’s still one year left. I’ll play for three hundred and sixty-four days, and the rest will be done in one day.”

Blood Jade Bracelet: …As long as you are happy.

If it were anyone else, it would definitely be a mockery of overestimating one’s capabilities. The big devil is an exception.

He is really good.

After finishing his meal, Gu Minghuai went into the room and packed away the takeout box on the bedside, then asked Rong Yu, “Are you going back to the pool tonight?”

Rong Yu hugged the pillow tightly, as if glued to the bed: “I’ll sleep here tonight.”

Gu Minghuai turned around and left.

Rong Yu stood up: “Where are you going?”

Gu Minghuai said calmly: “I’m going to sleep in the guest room.”

Any area where the fish tails have been on is stained and the sheets and bedding must be changed. Gu Minghuai couldn’t sleep on this bed anyway, so he simply gave up the room to Rong Yu.

Spending the afternoon with Rong Yu and watching movies in bed was the limit of what he could endure.

Rong Yu immediately moved to the end of the bed and grabbed the hem of his clothes: “Don’t go!”

If Gu Minghuai doesn’t sleep here, what’s the point of staying here!

Gu Minghuai lowered his eyes and looked at the hand clenched on the corner of his clothes: “Let go.”

After saying that, he felt a little funny. It seemed that the words he said most these days were all “let go”.

It shows how clingy this little fish is.

Rong Yu loosened his grip and changed from holding his clothes to holding his arm, making it clear that he wouldn’t let him go.

Gu Minghuai felt a headache: “Xiao Yu’er, what on earth are you doing?”

Rong Yu said: “I want you to stay and sleep with me.”

Gu Minghuai: “This is inappropriate.”

Rong Yu whispered: “But we all slept together last night, have you forgotten?”

Gu Minghuai: “Xiao Yu’er, you need to learn how normal humans communicate.”

What’s the matter with this tone that seems to be accusing him of being a heartless man? He just spent one night in the swimming pool, it was not a one-night stand.

Rong Yu vowed not to let go: “Didn’t I say that right? I promised you that I would give you my life.”

Gu Minghuai found it funny: “You have already pledged yourself to me for one day, that’s enough.”

“But I heard from mortals,” Rong Yu looked at him in confusion, “committing yourself to someone is a lifelong matter.”

Those eyes were clear and ignorant, and his tone was filled with pure and simple innocence.

Gu Minghuai suddenly couldn’t say no.

For some strange reason, he agreed.

“I can stay,” Gu Minghuai said numbly, “but there are conditions. One quilt for one person. No crossing the boundary and lastly, no putting your tail on me.”

Rong Yu immediately fell back and sank into the soft quilt: “Okay.”

Gu Minghuai looked at him in disbelief: “Go and wash up now.”

Gu Minghuai is such a mysophobic person that even taking ten baths a day is too little. He also requires people around him to be clean and tidy.

Rong Yu slumped on the bed, too lazy to move: “I’ve already washed today and I haven’t gone out, so there’s no need to wash again.”

Gu Minghuai’s attitude was firm: “No. You are not allowed to sleep in my bed without washing up.”

Rong Yu stretched out his hand to him: “Then pull me up.”

Gu Minghuai gritted his teeth: “Don’t you have the strength to sit up?”

Rong Yu said lazily, “No.”

“…” Gu Minghuai stretched out his hand and pulled the person up, “Okay.”

Rong Yu continued to open his arms: “Carry me to the bathroom.”

“Can’t you walk there yourself?” Gu Minghuai swallowed his words when he saw Rong Yu’s fish tail. He tried to be calm and said, “I’ll get you some water.”

Finally, Gu Minghuai fetched water for Rong Yu to wash his face and brush his teeth, and then took the basin back.

President Gu was deeply doubting his life at this moment. Why did he become a nanny overnight?

After serving and washing up the little fish, Mr. Gu locked himself in the bathroom to clean himself.

Rong Yu was currently using Gu Minghuai’s mobile phone to play Big Fish eat Small Fish.

The big fish opened its bloody mouth and mercilessly devoured the small fish in the sea area.

Wherever the devil passes, not a blade of grass grows.

Soon he became the overlord of the sea.

He put down his cell phone without interest: “Oh, how lonely it is to be invincible.”

Blood Jade Bracelet: This devil’s shamelessness is unbeatable.

The bathroom door was pushed open, and Gu Minghuai walked out covered in moisture. He wiped the water droplets on the back of his neck with a towel, went to bed, turned off the lights, and went to sleep in one step.

Rong Yu asked: “Why are you going to bed so early?”

Gu Minghuai closed his eyes: “I want to rest early today.”

His head hurts.

Rong Yu said: “Hold hands.”

Gu Minghuai: “Huh?”

Rong Yu reminded him: “I have promised myself to you.”

“…” Gu Minghuai handed him his hand in compromise.

The two slept in two different quilts, holding hands in the middle and interlocking their fingers until Rong Yu fell asleep peacefully.

Gu Minghuai felt that this was unbelievable. He was already prepared for Xiao Yu’er to be restless. After all, with his noisy temper, anything was possible.

Unexpectedly, Rong Yu was lying on the side silently, without moving a muscle at all.

Gu Minghuai breathed a sigh of relief, relaxed his body, and prepared to fall asleep.

——He was happy too early.

Rong Yu seemed to feel hot in his sleep and unconsciously flipped up the quilt on his body.

Gu Minghuai thought for a while and helped him cover him with the quilt to avoid catching a cold, which would feel uncomfortable.

This little fish doesn’t like to drink bitter medicine, he is very delicate, and he can suffer from a cold.

Rong Yu flipped it open again ungratefully.

Gu Minghuai covered it again.

It opened again.

… Gu Minghuai doesn’t want to cover him anymore, so he just closes his eyes and sleeps on his own, so let him do whatever he wants.

Unexpectedly, Rong Yu rolled over and rolled onto his bed, pulled his quilt over them, found a comfortable position and continued sleeping next to him.

The two of them were now sharing the same bed, embracing each other intimately.

Gu Minghuai’s whole body froze.

He tried to push the young man back out of his arms, but Rong Yu’s body was so heavy that he couldn’t push him away.

Gu Minghuai could only cautiously move further out the bed.

Rong Yu didn’t have anyone to hold, so he moved forward, turned over and continued to roll in.

Gu Minghuai was not a fool, and his tone was cold: “Xiao Yu’er, are you pretending to sleep?”

No response.

His breathing was even, he was in deep sleep.

Silence greeted Gu Minghuai and he continued to move to the side calmly. This time he moved to the edge of the big bed, and there was no place else to retreat.

Rong Yu also moved in parallel, not only occupying Gu Minghuai’s original position, but also putting his fish tail up.

Gu Minghuai’s hair stood on end when he saw that tail, and he subconsciously shrank back——

A dull sound.

Gu Minghuai fell off the bed.
