Abstinence Admiral Don't Bite, the Softer Mermaid Top Thug

Chapter 239 Well, I really want to be your queen too!
It was rare for Jing Weimian to see the mermaid looking at her so obediently, and her heart softened. She could no longer be so cold and hard.

She gazed intently into the mermaid's cold yet deep blue eyes, so close to her.

Not wanting to keep him waiting too long, she softly hummed in agreement.

To make the mermaid feel safer and more confident, Jing Weimian took the initiative to wrap her arms around his neck and said with a slight smile, "Go ahead and speak."

Lu Lianbai was clearly encouraged by Jing Weimian's attitude, and thus spoke in a low, steady voice:

“Jing Weimian, I’ve told you before, I am the king of the Mermaid Kingdom who was stranded abroad.”

Jing Weimian's every word resonated with:

"Yes, I know. The king wants to imprison me and make me his queen, doesn't he?"

Lu Lianbai frowned, gently pressing his webbed fingers against her lips, his gesture somewhat domineering and cold:

"Don't laugh, I'm telling you this very seriously."

Jing Weimian deliberately bit his webbed finger, as if punishing him, to refute his words:

"Well, I really want to be your queen."

The mermaid's face turned red.

The red color extends from the ear fins to the tip of the fish's tail.

It was a deep, bright red.

Jing Weimian forced a smile and gently tugged at his chest again:
"Stop making assumptions and get down to business."

Lu Lianbai suppressed his wandering thoughts before continuing:

"Many years ago, the key to the entrance to the Mermaid Kingdom was stolen, preventing the Mermaid race from returning."

"At that time, although I was already the new king with the power of the tides, I was still young, so my tribe escorted me to Whale Island."

"Also for my safety, they...intentionally stripped away the memory scales of my time in the Mermaid Kingdom."

"Later... on the day you were preparing to take me and Jing Xiaoyu back to the capital planet, my sister returned that memory scale to me."

"So... at that time, my memories were merged with my memories of my childhood."

Jing Weimian raised an eyebrow.

Before she came with Lu Lianbai, she felt that the childish side that Lu Lianbai occasionally showed must be related to his teenage years.

She really did predict it.

Jing Weimian knew that this matter was a rather important and crucial responsibility for Lu Lianbai.

So I stopped teasing him at this critical juncture.

She followed up on his words and asked, "So you found the person who stole the key on the capital planet?"

Lu Lianbai slowly nodded. "Yes, I found it."

Jing Weimian thought about it. If the person who stole the key was an ordinary person, Lu Lianbai would have no reason to abandon the child to her and would rather change his appearance than acknowledge her.

His only purpose in doing this was to prevent her from being implicated.

So, what made Lu Lianbai feel that even an imperial general like her had to be somewhat wary...?

There is only one—

Jing Weimian raised her eyes again: "Was the person who stole the key the president?"

Lu Lianbai was slightly taken aback.

He nodded immediately. "It's him."

In this way, everything makes sense.

Jing Weimian's arms around his neck tightened slowly. "So this is why you've been keeping it from me all this time?"

Lu Lianbai lowered his head: "Hmm..."

Jing Weimian snorted, "Isn't it too late to feel guilty now?"

Lu Lianbai remained silent, only tightening his arms around her waist.

Then, very calmly and clearly, he brought out his get-out-of-jail-free card:

"You just said you wouldn't abandon me."

Jing Weimian laughed in exasperation.

He deliberately cupped his face in his hands:

"How could I possibly not want the king? I love you so much."

The mermaid blushed again: "Really?"

Jing Weimian said "Really," and then bit his lip hard.

He bullied the mermaid mercilessly, purely out of spite.

"Well……"

Before long, she had bullied the mermaid until her eyes were glistening with tears, and the corners of her red eyes were adorned with pearls.

Jing Weimian felt it wasn't enough and wanted to bully him even more.

However, just then, the sound of the palace doors being reopened came from not far away.

Immediately afterwards, the little mermaid swam out with a gurgling sound.

Jing Weimian instantly regained her senses.

She was terrified that her baby would see her bullying Lu Lianbai.

I also don't want to tarnish the image of a gentle mother that I've worked so hard to build in my baby's mind.

So, Jing Weimian viciously covered the mermaid's lips.

She pinned the mermaid against the rocky cave floor and threatened her in a low voice:

"Tuck your mermaid tail back in, and don't let the baby find out we're here."
