Beast World: The villain mermaid cub refuses to become a good person

Chapter 245 Should She Accept It?

Yu Manman invited Zhou Nan to come along, and the purpose of making an official announcement tonight was to test Zhou Nan.

Since he is a member of the Zhou family and is highly regarded by them, he might be able to find out some information.

"Manman, you really are amazing! You don't hold back until you make a move, and when you do, you're astonishing everyone. You even won over the instructors! Your charm hasn't diminished at all!"

"Yes, our Manman has been receiving candy and snacks since elementary school!"

Are Ackerman and Yu Manman really together? They've officially registered their relationship, so it can't be fake.

[Since there are already members of the Zhou family in the base, why did Father need me to verify this? How could it be fake?]

Yu Manman's eyes flickered slightly.

Is there really something wrong with Zhou Nan? Is the Zhou family keeping an eye on Instructor Ackerman?

Then, Yu Manman overheard: "It seems Father's plan is going to fall through. Introducing Ackerman to the Zhou family's daughter and making him their son-in-law is probably impossible... Yu Manman's father is a general; Ackerman knows perfectly well what the best choice is."

Yu Manman was slightly disappointed.

Is Zhou Nan's father simply interested in Ackerman and wants him to become Zhou's son-in-law? Does he have no other motives?

[If Father wanted to cultivate his own people in the military, wouldn't it have been better to find Yu Manman? Wouldn't it have been better to introduce the Zhou family to Yu Manman as her beastly husbands...?]

Yu Manman pursed her lips slightly.

So Zhou Nan has his eye on her?
Yu Manman listened to Zhou Nan's thoughts and even heard him silently sifting through the young males of the Zhou family in his mind!
This Zhou Nan has quite a few tricks up her sleeve.

Yu Manman doesn't like it.

"By the way, I went to Waltz Underwater World last week, it's quite beautiful," Yu Manman said casually.

"The Waltz family's zoo? It seems pretty good! Better than those places that hire orcs to turn into animals!"

"Really? I haven't been there yet," Wu Yingyue said with a smile. "I used to stay at home all the time and never went out much."

[Waltz Underwater World? I seem to recall my father mentioning that the people at Waltz are hypocritical? But if Yingyue likes it, I'll find a chance to take her there.]

Hypocrisy? Yu Manman pondered.

Listening to Zhou Nan's thoughts, Yu Manman guessed that the Zhou family might know something about Waltz? Yu Manman wasn't sure if the Zhou family had any connection with Waltz.

It seems I still need to find an opportunity to go and investigate Yingyue's family.
It's okay. A couple of days ago, when she was chatting with Wu Yingyue, she steered the conversation to Wu Yingyue's hometown, and Wu Yingyue offered to take her back to visit...

Soon, the ten-minute time limit passed, and Yu Manman did not use her mind-reading ability on Zhou Nan again.

Today is her birthday, and Yu Manman doesn't want to spend too much time on Zhou Nan.

Yu Manman could also see that although Zhou Nan was valued by the Zhou family, he was still young, only a nineteen-year-old boy, and probably hadn't been involved in many family affairs.

Since that's the case, she should just have a happy birthday!

"Manman, I even made a bet with someone that your first beast husband would be Shang Yu!" a friend teased Yu Manman in a low voice.

"Why do you think that way?" Yu Manman was slightly taken aback.

"We all could tell Shang Yu likes you, right?" Xu Wanwan smiled at Yu Manman. "Only you are so oblivious!"

"And you're one of them..." Yu Manman's face turned slightly red.

Does Shang Yu like me?
She really hadn't thought about that...

Shang Yu didn't seem to have done anything that could be misunderstood, right? How did they figure it out?

"What's wrong with me?" Xu Wanwan leaned close to Yu Manman's ear and whispered, "You wouldn't be talking about... Xiao En, would you?"

Yu Manman was taken aback. She knew?

Xu Wanwan laughed smugly, "See? Only someone as blinded by their own involvement can be so oblivious!"

Actually, Xu Wanwan didn't know this before.

However, two weeks ago, Shawn became his own model.

That afternoon, even Sean himself didn't know how red his face was!

It was around that time that Xu Wanwan realized that Xiao En seemed to have feelings for her!
However... since Xiao En didn't speak up, she would pretend she didn't know!
Xu Wanwan curled her lips into a smile. In the mind of this proud young lady, it was always the man who had to make the first move! If the little lamb didn't speak up, it meant he didn't like her enough...

Yu Manman was lost in thought. Did Shang Yu really like her? Everyone else could see it, but she wasn't the only one who couldn't?

Although Yu Manman is much more cheerful and lively in this life, she is truly clueless when it comes to relationships. In her previous life, she only lived for a little over ten years and never dated or experienced the first stirrings of love.

In matters of the heart, she's practically a blank slate.

"My darlings, the cake is here!" Yu Man, dressed in a long red dress, exuded a mature and charming aura.

Altaïr and Puslin pushed the cake out together.

"Hello, Auntie! Hello, Uncles!"

"Auntie is getting more and more beautiful! Standing next to Manman, they look like sisters!"

"Have you all eaten honey?" Yu Man laughed happily, pulling her daughter beside her.

"Our precious daughter has grown up!"

Yu Man was deeply moved.

Looking at her daughter's bright and beautiful appearance, she was reminded of the adorable little dumpling she had known years ago.

Time flies so fast, my daughter has grown up and now she has a fiancé...

Yu Man looked at Ackerman, "From now on, you must protect my precious daughter well!"

"I will protect Manman with my life!" Ackerman's gaze was serious, as if he were making a vow.

Yu Manman's face flushed slightly, and her heart seemed to beat a little faster.

A thought popped into her head: Could Instructor Ackerman be serious?

Thinking back on Ackerman's attentiveness and thoughtfulness towards me these past few days, it seems that it wasn't an act.

If... if Instructor Ackerman really has feelings for her, should she accept it?
Yu Manman pondered, and it seemed like it wasn't entirely impossible?
Having spent so many years in the Beast World, Yu Manman had already adapted to this era. Since she was going to find several beast husbands anyway, Instructor Ackerman, with his good looks and abilities, seemed like a pretty good choice?

Yu Manman secretly dismissed the thought, "Oh well, let nature take its course!"

"Manman, my precious goddaughter! Happy birthday!" Lu Cheng arrived late with Shang Yu.

"If we're any later, we'll be starting soon!" Yu Man said reproachfully to her best friend.

"You think I wanted this? It's all because of the trouble I have at home!" Lu Cheng wailed. "I was so envious of you having such a sweet and lovely daughter, and I wanted to have one too! But I never expected that the one I gave birth to would be a debt collector..."

This year, Lu Cheng finally gave birth to a daughter, but the little one has more energy than the twins Gru and Ragna from back then! One little one, but twice as mischievous!

Most importantly, this little rascal doesn't like to play during the day and doesn't like to sleep at night...
