Quick Wear: The Sickly Boss Is Addicted to Spoiling Me

Facing such a silly question, Yan Li couldn't help laughing. That smile was like the sun shining through the sea water, with an indescribable charm.

After laughing, Yan Li still patiently explained to him.

"I am indeed a mermaid, but I don't know if it's from a fairy tale. Because I haven't read fairy tales."

Shen Xi opened his eyes wide, nodded obediently and said "Oh".

A hint of a smile appeared on the little face that was so pale just now.

Then, Shen Xi asked curiously: "Then how can you speak?"

Yan Li looked at his smile and was stunned for a moment. He couldn't help but think: "Are all humans so cute?"

After a while, he came back to his senses.

"The reason you can speak is because you want to know the answer."

After Yan Li answered his question, he looked directly at the place where he had sent Shen Xi.

This island is very small, surrounded by the endless sea. There are many trees on the island, lush and green, with branches and leaves swaying gently in the sea breeze.

However, it doesn't look like a place where people live.

Yan Li started to wonder in his heart that he didn't know how to raise a child, and it was impossible for him to bring a child into the water.

Thinking of this, he asked Shen Xi: "Where is your home?"

Shen Xi didn't want to leave him so soon, so he simply shook his head and said he didn't know.

"I don't know. On the sea, I don't know the direction."

Yan Li looked at him and didn't look like he was lying.

"The clothes this kid is wearing are not bad, someone should come to look for him. Let's see when the time comes, if there is a ship looking for him, send him back."

But it's okay now. Seeing that the child was depressed, Yan Li took the initiative to talk to him.

"Why are you still going out to sea when the wind and waves are so strong today?"

"My mother passed away and she loved the sea. So I want to scatter her ashes in the middle of the sea."

Although Yan Li is not a human being and does not have much feeling about separation of life and death, but when he saw Shen Xi's lost look, he felt inexplicably blocked in his heart.

He didn't know how to comfort him, so he put his hand on his head and rubbed it awkwardly.

"It's okay, she will be happy in heaven."

Shen Xi's expression improved a lot because of his words, and the smile returned to his face.

"Yes. Thank you, mermaid brother."

"Didn't you just thank me?"

"They are different. That one is about thanking Brother for saving me. This one is about thanking Brother for comforting me."

Shen Xi took the hand off his head and held it in his own hand.

"Thank you so much, brother."

"I told you no thanks."

Yan Li pulled his hand away. He felt a little embarrassed when he was called "brother" all the time.

I feel very young when he calls me brother, but in fact, I am old enough to be his ancestor.

'I always feel like I'm pretending to be young.'

The two talked a lot more, mostly Shen Xi asking questions and Yan Li answering him.

From this perspective, Yan Li really is like an older brother, always leading him.

Yan Li had already made up his mind to keep the child with him, but things did not go as he wished. More than an hour later, a yacht came on the sea not far away.

There were many people above calling Shen Xi's name.

During the conversation just now, Yan Li learned his name from him, and his hearing was different from that of ordinary people, so before Shen Xi noticed someone coming, Yan Li already knew that the person looking for him had arrived.

"Finally someone has come and can take this little boy away. We don't have to go ashore to accompany him anymore."

Although he thought so in his heart, when he knew that Shen Xi was leaving, he felt an inexplicable sadness in his heart.

Yan Li couldn't let others discover him, so he said goodbye to Shen Xi before those people came close.

"The people who are looking for you should be here soon. Just follow them. Remember, don't tell anyone else that you have seen me."

He was about to leave after he finished speaking, but Shen Xi stopped him again.

"Are you leaving now? Will I ever see you again?"

Yan Li felt that he looked a little anxious and didn't know how to answer for a moment. He and this human were just casual acquaintances. Although he was much cuter than some humans he had met before, he had no way to answer him whether they would have another chance to meet.

He was not very good at lying now, so he said vaguely: "Maybe, if we are destined to meet, we may meet again. Remember what happened today is a secret between the two of us, don't tell anyone."

After Yan Li finished speaking, he looked at Shen Xi deeply, then turned around and jumped into the sea.

"Goodbye, little dumpling."

His beautiful fish tail sparkled brilliantly in the sun and instantly disappeared into the vast ocean.

Shen Xi looked in the direction where Yan Li left, his eyes filled with reluctance and loss.

"I have to wait for a long time again. How annoying."

As the yacht got closer, the people's shouts became clearer.

Shen Xi seemed not to hear anything. The only thing in his mind was Yan Li who had just left.

The wind was still blowing, and the waves were beating against the shore of the island, as if telling of this brief but wonderful encounter.

As for Er Li, he had already swam to the deep sea. His figure gradually disappeared, leaving behind only the mysterious sea and an unforgettable memory.

The yacht finally approached the island, and a group of people hurriedly boarded the island and looked for Shen Xi everywhere. When they saw Shen Xi standing there safely, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
