Chapter 1331: The Mermaid Princess (30)

The corners of the young man's lips curved ever so slightly, adding a touch of color to his usually indifferent face.

Even in the sweltering heat of summer, he still seemed cool and aloof, yet the slight smile at the corners of his mouth and the faint amusement in his eyes lent him a hint of warmth.

"Then I'll be waiting."

"Senior," Tang Guo called out, "give me the other one. I've finished mine."

Yin Yao: "..."

What a mood-killing fish.

He glanced at the ice cream in his hand, then at her serious gaze fixed entirely on it. Sighing inwardly, he tore open the wrapper himself before handing it to her.

"Here."

"Senior, you're so gentle and considerate. Why are you still single?"

Yin Yao: "..."

What a chatterbox fish.

"Because—"

"I know." Tang Guo leisurely pedaled her bicycle and took a bite of ice cream before smiling sweetly. "Because all the females around you are too low-level to attract you. They can't resonate with you, right? A species with such high taste and noble blood as Senior Yin Yao's has very few suitable partners in this world."

Yin Yao: "..."

What a bootlicking fish.

Yin Yao felt that he couldn't continue letting a fish lead him around by the nose. It was damaging to his dignity.

Every time, she was the one asking questions.

And unfortunately, he had never developed the habit of lying.

Whatever she asked, he answered truthfully.

So this time, he decided to seize the initiative.

Then he asked, "You're a fish. Why do you eat so much? Aren't you afraid of bursting to death?"

System: Ahahahahaha! No wonder this guy is single.

"Why can't fish eat more?" Tang Guo answered naturally. "If I want to eat, then I eat. My digestion is pretty good, so I won't burst."

Yin Yao asked again, "Why do you like ice cream so much?"

"Because it's sweet."

Without hesitation, Tang Guo replied, "When it melts in my mouth and slides into my stomach, it's sweet all the way through. Sweet things make people happy."

That answer was unexpected.

Still, Yin Yao found it strange.

"There are many things in this world sweeter than ice cream. Chocolate, candy, cream. Why do you only eat ice cream?"

"Because I think ice cream is the sweetest."

As she smiled while answering, Yin Yao saw the most beautiful smile he had ever seen on her flawless face.

She really meant it.

But why was ice cream sweeter than chocolate, candy, or cream?

"If you like it that much, I have plenty at home. Come and take some whenever you want."

The words slipped out before he could think.

It was because that sweet smile had infected him. His mind had gone blank for a moment.

He suddenly remembered the several large freezers at home, all filled with ice cream.

He didn't know why he had ordered his attendants to buy huge freezers and stock them with mountains of ice cream.

One entire room in his house was filled with nothing but ice cream.

"Senior, you're too kind. Since you're being so generous, I won't stand on ceremony."

Yin Yao instantly came back to his senses, regret flashing across his face.

What had he just said?

He had invited her to come to his house for ice cream?

This fish must have cultivated some kind of bewitching art, otherwise how could he keep doing such unreasonable things?

But the words had already been spoken.

He couldn't take them back now.

Besides, those several freezers full of ice cream were just sitting there anyway.

It would be better to let this fish eat them all.

Once she finished them, he'd have someone throw away the freezers and never buy that ridiculous stuff called ice cream again.
