"Niannian, why are you here?"

"Googoo~"

Before Pei Nian could fully react, Li Luo, who was also wearing a formal attire, sneaked over and ran over with Fen Zai in his arms.

"Niannian, you should hug Fenzi, preferably with your hands half-raised!"

Li Luo carefully sent the fan cub who was flicking his tail at Pei Nian, and Pei Nian caught off guard and hugged the now heavier and heavier fan cub.

"Ah? Is that so?"

Pei Nian couldn't help asking about Li Luo, but the pink boy in his arms grabbed Pei Nian's collar and glanced at him several times, Gu Gu looked so good today!

"Wait a minute, hold this pose, can you take a photo? Now the body proportions are correct!"

The most important thing is that with the reference map of the real object, you will be able to draw hands! ! !

???

Pei Nian was holding Fen Zai in a daze, watching Li Luo take the photos he took and uploaded them to the flat light screen, and quickly drew a draft with a pen in his hand.

Probably because Niannian is a mermaid, Li Luo, who was painting this time, did not avoid Pei Nian and Fenzai, and carefully revised the first draft in his hand.

Eh……

And Pei Nian silently tilted his head to take a look, this, this strange and familiar style of painting! ? ?

Brother Li Yuan is actually a master at painting? ?It seems that there is no setting in this game APP!

"Well, are you also interested in Niannian?"

Li Luo didn't expect Pei Nian who was on the side to be so interested, and he made room for Pei Nian who was staring at him.

After all, my brother went to a social event, and I left after a brief meeting due to physical reasons, and I couldn't help but draw the latest draft while no one was there.

Recently, I am serializing a series of four-panel comics, all of which are short stories about Niannian and Fanzi. The content is very relaxed and simple, and I didn't expect everyone to like it very much!

What's more, today's Niannian is indeed well-dressed by the butler Augustus!So I decided to make a special poster!

"Is this a painting? Have you ever painted anything else...?"

Pei Nian asked in a low voice, and the doubts in his heart began to bubble uncontrollably.

This style of painting is really familiar!

And Li Yuan, who was not far away, looked here, and unexpectedly found that his younger brother was sitting with the fish that was Nian Nian.

looking at what?

"There are still a few more and it will be over. Your uncle is already upstairs. When the time comes, go over and have a chat?"

Mrs. Ailan smiled and glanced at Li Yuan beside her, she hardly thought that today would be so smooth.

His eldest son has indeed unknowingly grown up very well.

Even she is so tall that a mother like herself has to raise her head to look at each other.

When I was a child, I was always a little silent and didn't like to talk...

"Yes."

And Li Yuan glanced at the three heads crowded together on the light screen, unconsciously paying attention.

"Piao Niang! Well, this is Gu Gu!"

Fan Zai, who was held in Pei Nian's arms, saw the photo album that Li Luo had pulled out, and wanted to post the whole thing, and stared at the picture with wide eyes.

He even pointed out the Q version of Pei Nian on the picture!

………………? ?

But Pei Nian already felt a subtle sense of discomfort.

Ahhhhhh, this style of painting really looks more and more familiar? !

"Does Fanzi also like to look at paintings? There are still moving ones!"

It was the first time that he had a common interest with his own fish, and Li Luo was also a little excited, so he simply took out his entire collection of works.

"Ammm! Drop, drop pearls? QAQ"

Fan Zai was stunned to see each one, especially after seeing the small emoji out of the circle in GIF format, the whole fish was stunned.

The fish tail is cooing, but crying!

But it's nice to cry...the pearls that fall out are also beautiful white pearls! !

"Did you cry?"

However, Fen Zai still held the light screen in his arms, and looked at Pei Nian who was a little nervous and worried.

Could it be that when he didn't know, who bullied Cuckoo to the point of tears? ? ?

Now not only Pei Nian's cheeks were hot, but even Li Luo was a little unexpectedly embarrassed.

"Hahaha no, it's not that I cried every year, it's just a drawing."

I just don't know why, but Li Luo always feels that Nian Nian is looking at him with an indescribable condemnation in his eyes.

So much so that I felt a strange sense of guilt.

And Pei Nian watched this familiar expression pack appear on Li Luo's optical brain, and it was already very difficult for the whole fish to maintain its expression and not collapse.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, it really is Li Luo!

Just like that guy Li Yuan, he knows how to bully Yuyu, and he even scribbles on Yuyu's little emoticons, making it all over the internet...

The last time I chatted with Lan Rui, that guy even posted this little emoji when he was complaining, which made my fish almost cry before the emoji.

When did the fish cry so embarrassingly?The tail is still flicking. (fish angry jpg)

"Well, do you think it's not good-looking... Sorry, I didn't know you were my brother's mermaid at the time, so I drew it because I liked it very much."

Li Luo looked at Pei Nian at the side, and had to admit that Nian Nian, who was raised by his brother, was already a very beautiful little beauty. Just looking at you like this made people feel a little subconsciously guilty.

When Pei Nian heard Li Luo's explanation, he could only sigh and curl the fish's tail slightly.

Alas, forget it... After all, the fish have grown up now, and looking at this small Q version of the expression pack is not as embarrassing as before.

Speaking of it, I just shed tears at the beginning, but then I drew another set of pearls falling. It was simply repeated public executions, so embarrassing that I really wanted to cry! TUT

"Well, red! Alex?"

However, just when Fenzai learned to flip the screen with his hands without a teacher, Pei Nian suddenly saw the painting of his "best friend" Alex in the album! !

"Wow, every year you know Alex from Pearl's family??"

This time Li Luo was really shocked.

When I drew this picture myself, I just thought it was fun to be with Alex every year!One is beautiful and the other is handsome!They are two internet celebrity mermaids that match very well!

Didn't expect Niannian to know Alex?This is really a small piece of information in the mermaid circle!

"Yes, I know him, he is my friend, but why don't you draw now?"

Pei Nian took a serious look at Alex on the painting, and still felt that Li Luo's painting was really pretty.

"Hey... Actually, you can also draw! Speaking of which, I haven't seen Alex from Pei'er's family for a long time, and I used to send photos often."

Li Luo was suddenly inspired by what Pei Nian said.

Probably Alex disappeared so suddenly that everyone didn't pay much attention.

It is only now that I realize that I have not tried to draw Alex for a long time.

"It's okay, I have met Alex, and I can provide a reference for your drawing! In the picture I drew before, Alex's shoulders are a little stronger!"

Pei Nian made a serious suggestion, and Li Luo tacitly pulled out new drawing paper to try.

"Oh ok, but it's really a surprise. I didn't expect you to have such a good relationship?"

"That's right, he even gave me a red pearl back then! It's just that we haven't seen each other for a long time..."

Just when Pei Nian's mouth was a little dry and he wanted to turn around and take a sip of sparkling juice, he was handed it as soon as he stretched out his hand.

"Well, thank you...?!"

Pei Nian subconsciously said thank you and felt a little strange, couldn't help but looked up, and saw Li Yuan standing behind him! ? ?

Yuan, Yuan Yuan! ! ! QQ

Why is this guy like a dean! ?How long have I been standing here listening to it?

When they looked at each other, Pei Nian wanted to withdraw his hand and stop drinking the sparkling juice.

"Niannian, do you still have an impression of the muscle lines on Alex's shoulders? I think there is indeed a problem with the proportions here."

While Pei Nian was staring blankly at Li Yuan, Li Luo beside him was still seriously drawing with the electronic pen in his hand.

"I'll draw a draft first, what do you think of this, is it okay?"

Three strokes, five strokes, and two strokes, the shadow of the little red mermaid can already be seen on Li Luo's drawing paper.

"Very good, you can try sending it out."

Just as Li Luo was holding his optical brain and asking Pei Nian next to him, a meaningful voice came over.

While Pei Nian grabbed the bubble juice held by Li Yuan, he almost rubbed his fish's tail against Li Luo to remind him, he almost said QAQ! ! !

The devil is behind you! ! !

"Really, I also think it's good. Did you play together when you made friends? Is there any action reference? I think the action of giving pearls is very interesting. You still have the real red pearl to see." See...?"

While Li Luo was talking, Pei Nian subconsciously squeezed the hand held by Li Yuan for some reason.

Ah, that red pearl was taken away by Li Yuan long ago, maybe...you can ask Li Yuan?

"The childhood friendship between the two little mermaids actually gave pearls when they were young, eh, your tail every year...?"

Li Luo was poked on the calf several times by Pei Nian's fish tail, and then he realized something was wrong and looked to his side, and almost dropped the light-screen drawing board in his hand!

"...Brother, brother?"

When did he come here...? ? ?

"So you drew it?"

However, Li Yuan looked at the old picture on the drawing board that Li Luo called out. It seemed to be a group portrait of three fishes in pink, red and white, cute and cute.

It was hot for a while at the beginning, but it suddenly became cold for no reason!

"........."

Li Luo looked at the picture on the light screen of the drawing board that he had called out from the source file, and it seemed to be... a bit hard to deny.

Wait, what is original? ? ? ?

And my brother actually saw this picture! ? ?But brother doesn't use Xingbo! !Wait, what I drew at the time was Niannian, and my brother may indeed be dragged to look at this painting...

My God, did my Xingbo small vest fall off so unexpectedly? ? ?Still fell in front of my brother! ! !

"No, brother, I'm just thinking about new work ideas..."

Li Luo turned off the canvas calmly, called up a new painting, brushed a few strokes face to face and looked at the picture in front of him, drawing a Q version of Li Yuan and Pei Nian holding bubble juice.

"I've been thinking recently that I can respond to Xingbo's call and draw materials from small things in real life... Draw a group of comics about Brother and Niannian!!!"

ah……? ?

Pei Nian looked at Li Luo who suddenly changed his words, and there was something wrong with the whole fish, a little cartoon of himself and Li Yuan! ?

Li Yuan's Q version image, are you sure? ? ?

The one with the serious face of the triangle ice cube? ? →▼-▼

"Okay, draw well."

This time Li Yuan took a look at Li Luo's new sketch, his eyes were a little warmer, and he even gave a word of encouragement.

So much so that Li Luo was a little shocked!

Mom, did I get affirmed by my brother just now? ? ?

"Uncle is back, and I want to see Nian Nian, so take him upstairs for a while."

And Li Yuan passed the review of Li Luo's new idea, and watched Li Luo delete other drafts, so he hugged Pei Nian with sparkling juice.

"You...don't hug, you've grown up!"

Pei Nian blushed a little inexplicably, especially because Yuwei was sitting in Li Yuan's arms, he was really a little embarrassed.

Still in front of Fanzi!

"Ammmm...?"

As for Li Yuan's intentions, Fen Zai was strangely clear every time he got, so he obediently crawled into Li Luo's arms again, watching Li Yuan take Pei Nian away.

Big PAPA and Little PAPA have something to do?

"Want to go there together?"

Li Yuan looked down at Li Luo who was holding the drawing board, and asked in an inexplicably gentle tone.

"No, no, no need...Brother, you know, I've always been a little afraid of uncle, so I won't go..."

Li Luo shook his head crazily as he held the light-screen drawing board and the powder cub in his arms.

Obviously still unable to recover from the stimulation of the previous moment, with a sense of disorientation JIO.

"Okay, hard work."

"No, no, no hard work, no hard work, brother is the one who has worked hard...!"

Regarding Li Yuan's signal before leaving, Li Luo shook his head frantically again with his light brain in his arms.

It wasn't until Li Yuan's figure disappeared that he looked at the light screen in shock.

In desperation just now, probably because of the instinct to survive, the hand speed burst out and drew such a draft!

But looking at it now, it's cute.

It’s just that my brother’s Q version is a bit fierce and cute, and Nian Nian next to me is holding hands by my brother, who is obedient and soft, holding a small bubble juice together. The story is so strong!

Biting the cap of the pen, Li Luo suddenly felt that he could indeed try the new serialization!

"Ammm, big PAPA, little PAPA!"

Fen Zai also looked at the drawing paper curiously, and immediately recognized the black-haired Li Yuan and the silver-blue haired Pei Nian.

When Pei Nian was led to the living room, he immediately saw the man on the sofa in the center of the room. It was said that he was Li Yuan's uncle, Earl Aleister?

Different from the old uncle in my imagination, I felt that this unexpectedly elegant and noble gentleman, even if it wasn't for the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, he wouldn't be able to tell that he was already very old.

Li Yuan's family is so handsome! ! !

Both mother and uncle are handsome men and beautiful women, so seductive.

However, what Pei Nian couldn't tell was that Uncle Li Yuan's eyes always made Yu feel that something was wrong, so he couldn't help but move a little closer to Li Yuan's arms.

Sensing Pei Nian's uneasiness, Li Yuan rubbed Pei Nian's hair in doubt, as if silently asking what's wrong.

And Pei Nian couldn't say anything specifically, but shook his head softly.

"The mermaid egg sent over at the beginning, I didn't expect it to be so big after breaking the shell."

Just as Pei Nian quietly looked at the rumored Earl Aleister, Earl Aleister also stared at Pei Nian in his nephew's arms.

The extremely rare silver-blue long hair, clear and ethereal pupils, and even the pure white and flawless fish tail are indeed rare masterpieces among mermaids.

It almost perfectly fits all the fantasies about mermaids in human mythology.

Elegant and fragile beauty, with a sense of unreality that is almost dreamlike, but at this moment, she is indeed embraced in the arms, and the intimacy is within reach.

Even the person who chose to send this egg may not have expected that such a masterpiece would be hatched from the most inconspicuous pure white eggshell.

"Yes, and very smart, but a little clingy."

However, Li Yuan raised the corners of his lips and stroked Pei Nian's cheek, causing Pei Nian to turn around and look at Li Yuan just as he sat on the sofa from his arms.

It seemed as if he was afraid that Li Yuan would leave him.

Subconscious trust and dependence are almost obvious at a glance.

"This shows that he trusts you a lot. Gaining the trust of mermaids is not an easy task. Generally speaking, they prefer and are willing to get close to pure-hearted human children."

Earl Alister coughed a few times, turned the ring on his thumb habitually, smiled and looked at his nephew whom he had not seen for a long time.

The territory of Earl Aleister is the ruins of the famous ancient blue star in the ocean galaxy, so there are many opportunities to come into contact with the ancient blue star community, and the mermaid is one of them.

The generosity of sending two mermaid eggs at once is obviously very difficult for anyone else in the entire interstellar world to be able to do it.

"Maybe it's because I saw the broken shell with my own eyes. At that time, the broken shell was still very scary."

It was rare to have a common topic with my uncle because of the mermaid, and Li Yuan also explained a few words seriously.

If one were to talk about conservatives among the nobles, his uncle, Earl Aleister, was undoubtedly one of them.

It's just that my mother married my father who was a marshal of the military after all, and since then my uncle has rarely expressed his views in public.

In addition to maintaining the extravagant ethos of the ancient blue star aristocrats as always, the style of life even aroused discussions among many emerging forces in the military.

"To be honest, I was really surprised when you asked York to contact me to inquire about the sea where this little guy was fishing. Do you want to investigate this little fish's life experience and relatives?"

As soon as Earl Aleister finished his sentence, Pei Nian couldn't help looking at Li Yuan who was beside him, never expecting that Li Yuan had such a plan! ?

Because the two eggs of myself and the pink cub were sent by the NPC of Earl Alester, did I ask which sea area they caught them from? QQ

Emmm... But, did Li Yuan want to throw the fish back into the sea? !

This mission is directly BE! ! ? ?

Seeming to be in line with Pei Nian's thoughts, Earl Aleister added after a pause:

"He is beautiful, smart, and even likes you very much. If I do get the news here, are you sure you would like to let him return to the mermaid clan?"

Although so far, no one has ever done such a "stupid thing".

After all, the price to pay for obtaining a mermaid egg is almost sky-high, not to mention finding the mermaid's blood clan, hatching it and sending it back to the ocean.

What's more, to Earl Alester's surprise, the mermaid in Li Yuan's arms was indeed very smart.I just said a few words, and the mermaid seemed to understand immediately, and the eyes also changed to become extremely vivid.

It is very difficult for most mermaids hatched artificially to be so sensitive to human language.

What's more, this white mermaid seems to have mastered a certain human language.

Recalling the promotional video filmed by the military department, Earl Alester once again looked at Pei Nian who had obviously grown up a lot.

"I just think that maybe Niannian would want to know his real parents, and he should have the freedom, after all, being taken out of the ocean was not a choice he made voluntarily."

As for what choice will be made in the end, it may be Niannian's own decision.

Feeling Pei Nian's uneasiness, Li Yuan stretched out his hand to stroke Pei Nian's soft hair. The comforting gesture made Pei Nian curl his tail unconsciously and relax again.

Earl Alester looked seriously at Li Yuan's expression, but a look of disapproval slipped through his eyes.

"Maybe we can continue to chat. After all, I did get some information here, but this little guy probably needs to avoid it for a while."

"After the differentiation period, we met for the first time, and it's time to catch up. I heard that the differentiation has been perfect?"

After waving to the waiter behind him, Earl Alister tried to chat directly with his nephew, whom he hadn't seen for a long time. He was obviously very interested in the many rumors about Li Yuan's differentiation period.

The waiter beside him bowed slightly, ready to take Pei Nian, the little mermaid, to the next door according to Earl Alester's order.

It's just that Pei Nian reached out and grabbed Li Yuan's sleeve, and his silver-blue eyes widened a little helplessly, obviously unwilling to be taken away.

"No, I'll take him down."

Li Yuan also frowned and held Pei Nian's palm instead, rejecting the help of the waiter behind his uncle.

Nian Nian seems to be very sensitive, more nervous than ever.

"Of course, such a beautiful little guy really deserves more attention."

Earl Aleister, who tried to talk to Li Yuan directly, shrugged his shoulders with a smile, even though he was a little surprised.

This nephew of his doesn't seem to be so obsessed with the existence of mermaids.

But if it's this mermaid, it does have such a charm.

I have always liked gorgeous colors, but I didn't expect this moving masterpiece to be hatched in a white eggshell.

However, when Pei Nian was carried away by Li Yuan, a long-lost voice rang in his ears.

【Ding Dong!The blood in the deep sea is filled with flashy golden scepters. You are a pure white elf who can hear the sighs under the scars of the past. 】

[Please find out the truth behind the fog, otherwise you will enter BE003 "disappearing", and death in the game is equivalent to death in real life. 】

[This is the main mission, mission difficulty S! 】

main mission! ?

The main task that the small system mentioned is still S-level...

But how could this Earl Alester's uncle activate the main mission related to Li Yuan?

Pei Nian took a last look at the Earl of Alester through the crack of the door, and hugged Li Yuan's neck uneasily.

Aware of Pei Nian's obvious uneasiness and resistance, Li Yuan looked at Pei Nian who was buried in his neck with some concern along the way.

"Why do you grow taller and become more and more afraid of people, huh?"

Trying to talk to Pei Nian, Li Yuan unconsciously sniffed the smell of his fish's hair, it seemed to be extra sweet when it was clingy.

"I don't like it, I'm a little scared..."

Although Pei Nian knew that this was the so-called main mission, he still couldn't help but say such words bluntly for the first time,

"do not like?"

Li Yuan was silent for a moment, then looked seriously at Pei Nian, the little mermaid.

Even though she has grown up, Ruan Ruan hides in her arms with a dazed look, but it can easily make people want to hug him tighter, and subconsciously want to say some comforting words.

"And do you want to send the fish away...?"

However, Pei Nian obviously cared more about Li Yuan's question about his mermaid egg's life experience, after all, there was never such a thing written in the background plot of the game APP!

How can this mermaid egg be returned? Woohoo!

This guy just dislikes his chatterbox and is not cute when he grows up, so he wants to find his parents and throw him back into the sea!

"...Don't you miss your family?"

Li Yuan couldn't help but listen to Pei Nian's fish whispering about this matter pitifully, and his mood was a little bit complicated.

At that time, I asked Secretary York to ask for help, and I did consider releasing him.

After all, sooner or later, my future self will travel to various places in the interstellar world like my father. A clingy and tearful little mermaid like Nian Nian will obviously feel very lonely if she is left at home.

At that time, I didn't seem to have the ability to take good care of a mermaid.

If, like most people, you stay by your side just for a moment of companionship, and leave when you don’t have the energy to take care of it, your sense of responsibility from childhood doesn’t allow you to do so.

Oh, family...?

Pei Nian silently tightened Li Yuan's clothes and flicked the fish's tail.

The strange thing is, perhaps because I have been in this APP for too long, many memories of the past seem a little blurred, but the illusory game makes me have a kind of reality that is within reach.

Of course I miss my family.

Pei Nian nodded as he thought about it, and softly pressed against Li Yuan's ear, rubbing against the fish in Li Yuan's arms delicately.

but……

"...But you are my family too."

The first person who broke the shell saw you, the first person who hugged me was also you, and the one who grew up with me was also you...

Why send the fish away?

Can't you accompany me to see him?

The mermaid's voice has always been gentle and lingering, but at this moment when Pei Nian whispered such words in his ear so gently, Li Yuan stopped unnaturally almost instantly.

Even the roots of the ears felt a little hot.

Maybe it's because Pei Nian's fish's eyes were so clear and clear, and his tone of voice didn't hide at all, he simply expressed his trust and intimacy.

On the contrary, it is impossible to ignore the pure and extreme emotion in it.

However, Pei Nian, who subconsciously said it, felt Li Yuan's arms hugging him tightly, and the guy's sudden look in his eyes, so he blushed a little belatedly.

Why did Yu suddenly say such a thing, it's a bit embarrassing...

Can you take back what you said?
