Chapter 1324: The Mermaid Princess (23)

She could actually say things like she'd obey whatever he said.

"Senior, if you have any requests, just ask." Tang Guo looked at Yin Yao while scooping another spoonful of ice cream into her mouth. "If you've taken a liking to my beauty, that's not impossible either. I really am very pretty. Keeping me around as decoration would make for quite a beautiful sight. Though, I'm not an ordinary mermaid. Raising me is very expensive."

Yin Yao: "..."

When had he ever said he wanted to keep her???

System was desperately hypnotizing itself: Bloodline influence. This is definitely bloodline influence. This absolutely isn't the Host's true nature.

"But since Senior lives here, you must be very rich."

The corners of Yin Yao's lips twitched. He really wanted to tell her that he hadn't agreed to keep her, nor did he have any desire to raise such a gluttonous fish.

But the words never left his mouth.

He had the strange feeling that if he actually said such a thing, something terrifying would happen.

That instinct was incredibly alarming.

So he wisely chose to remain silent and avoid the subject.

Clearing his throat, he deliberately put on a cold tone. "Let's forget about this incident. Since we're from the same school and neighbors, I'll keep your secret."

"Senior, you're such a wonderful person."

System: Praise him. Praise him to death. Handing out good person cards by the stack. Though the Host's good person cards are genuine.

Even Yin Yao's ears had turned slightly red. This little mermaid wasn't just gluttonous and prideful—she was also exceptionally good at coaxing people.

Mermaids were liars.

People always said that mermaids had beautiful singing voices, but in his opinion, they were even more skilled at deceiving people.

"Senior, what book are you reading?"

"A mathematics textbook."

"Want to discuss problems together?"

Watching her happily splashing around in the water, Yin Yao replied, "You should just keep playing. I'll study by myself."

"But Senior promised to keep my secret. I'd feel bad about it, so I'd better solve math problems with you."

Yin Yao silently stared at her.

He genuinely couldn't detect the slightest trace of guilt on this little mermaid's face.

Before he could refuse, Tang Guo had already leapt out of the water and bounded toward his window. Her beautiful golden tail had not transformed into legs.

In the blink of an eye, she landed on the windowsill.

Perched there, her gorgeous fishtail swung leisurely outside the window. Lowering her voice, she said, "Senior, let's do some problems."

System: Damn it! Host, your precious darling is going to be played to death.

Expressionless, Yin Yao glanced at the constantly swaying little golden tail. He had to admit that it was truly beautiful.

Droplets of water trickled from the scales, dripping one by one onto the leaves below.

Her long golden hair hung over her shoulders, slightly damp, yet not diminishing her beauty in the slightest.

Bright red lips, crystal-clear eyes, and flawless features that could withstand any scrutiny.

No wonder all the boys at school were utterly bewitched by her.

"Senior, are we solving problems or not?"

"We are."

Yin Yao answered instinctively.

When he came back to his senses, he couldn't help feeling annoyed.

Why did he have so little self-control in front of this fish? Whatever she said, he unconsciously agreed.

He had heard that mermaid songs possessed the power to enchant hearts, but she hadn't sung a single note. Could it be that her cultivation was so profound that merely speaking to him left him incapable of refusing?

And so, the two of them actually sat by the window and began solving math problems together.

But the way they solved problems was unlike anyone else's.

Both possessed extraordinary intelligence, incredible memories, and exceptional comprehension.

They didn't even need scratch paper.

A single math workbook was enough.
