When I woke up, I was raised by a mermaid

Ruan Chen hugged the shiny fruit tightly, and pulled back the safety rope around his waist. With this force, he was slowly lifted along the outer shell of the airship and slipped back into the airship.

As soon as his feet entered the water, he rushed to Lux with the fruit in his arms, and held it up to the mermaid as if to take credit.

All the other mermaid soldiers heard was a series of soft voices: "Meow meow..."

Only Lux who was wearing a translation headset could understand.

What Ruan Chen said was: "Are you still underestimating me?"

A very proud little look.

Lux suppressed a smile: "I don't underestimate you, Ruanruan is very powerful."

After finishing speaking, he reached out and untied the breathing equipment and military earphones on Ruan Chen's body.

Putting on the translation earphones again, Ruan Chen's hearing was filled with the conversations of the mermaids for an instant.

"It's so small that you have to hold the fruit in your arms with both hands."

"The cry just now was too cute..."

"When I heard him exerting force, I subconsciously followed suit."

"This human is so brave!"

"Shh - he's looking at you!"

Ruan Chen glanced at the mermaids who were talking about him, then lowered his head again.

The fruit in his arms was really big to him, but he held it with both hands because he knew it was precious.

Ruan Chen pursed his lips when his self-esteem was stabbed by the phrase "such a small one".

In the gap where Lux carried him to the safety seat, Ruan Chen quietly turned his body, held up the source crystal fruit with one hand, and even twirled his index finger on his fingertips like he used to play basketball lap.

After completing this set of movements, Ruan Chen hugged the fruit again, just in time to be put into the seat by Lux.

With his seatbelt fastened, he cast another glance at the merfolk.

"Did he get angry when he heard you say he was little?"

"Ah...it feels cuter this way."

"He even went out of his way to show us that he can hold fruit with one hand, haha!"

Ruan Chen, whose little thoughts were all poked: "..."

He turned his head with red ears, pretending to look at the scenery outside the window, and didn't want to talk to the group of mermaids.

"All go back to their respective positions." Lux settled him down, got up and ordered, "Continue to collect crystals."

All the mermaid soldiers put away their relaxed expressions just now, and said seriously: "Yes!"

Lux rubbed the top of Ruan Chen's hair: "Is Ruan Ruan hungry?"

Ruan Chen, who was still ashamed, said sullenly: "I'm not hungry."

After he finished speaking, he felt the mermaid reached out and pressed lightly on his belly.

Ruan Chen: "!"

Before he had time to attack him, Lux had already opened a can of food he brought, scooped up a spoonful and fed it into Ruan Chen's just opened mouth.

"Hmm..." Ruan Chen, who was caught off guard by a mouthful of canned food, widened his eyes.

As if preparing to continue feeding him, but remembered something, Lux turned the handle of the spoon and handed it to Ruan Chen's hand: "Here, eat by yourself."

A mouthful of food was swallowed, and the hungry stomach was awakened.

Ruan Chen stretched out his small paws and grabbed the cans and spoons: "I want drinks."

A few minutes later, with the source crystal fruit in his arms, Ruan Chen held a straw in his mouth and a can in his hand, and watched the mermaids diligently collecting spars.

Ruan · Overseer · Chen is full of style.

In the afternoon, he distributed the remaining cans to Vincent and Peg, who had been busy all day, but he didn't give the bottle of drink, which was really shameful.

Food for humans doesn't seem to taste that good to mermaids.

However, the hungry two still ate happily, wishing they could even scrape off the sticky cans.

At night, when the collection mission was over, Ruan Chen followed the mermaid soldiers back to Base X.

Lux carried Ruan Chen back to the command room, and put him on the sofa.

Ruan Chen, who thought he would let him go back to the room, held the source crystal fruit and raised his head in a daze: "Should I sleep here tonight?"

Lux sat down with him: "No."

Ruan Chen felt a little ignorant when he looked at him like this, and lowered his eyes uneasily: "Then..."

What did you bring him to the command room for?

He also put on the appearance that the dean invited him to drink tea.

Lux looked at Ruan Chen for a long time, and asked, "Is there something on Ruan Ruan's mind?"

Ruan Chen blinked: "What?"

Ruan Chen successfully picked the source crystal fruit, but in Lux's mind, his words "Don't always underestimate me" and "I'm not as weak as you think" are always in Lux's mind.

In fact, this matter has been seen for a long time.

He couldn't communicate before, so many times he could only treat his human beings with the suggestions in the forum. On the way back, he recalled the details of getting along with Ruan Chen during this period, and felt that this matter needs to be communicated.

Seeing that he didn't understand, Lux asked again: "Why do you think I always underestimate you?"

Ruan Chen choked up.

"Is it because I don't let you touch dangerous things?" Lux continued, "You have just entered the transformation period, when your body is the most vulnerable, there are too many uncertainties on this planet, many times even I There is no guarantee of a full retreat.”

Ruan Chen pursed his lips, hugged the fruit a little tighter, and didn't answer.

Lux felt that the atmosphere was a bit too serious.

He smiled and put his arm over the side of the sofa.Looking down at him: "It's my responsibility to protect you, not to underestimate you."

"But I got the fruit." Although he was a little ashamed to speak, Ruan Chen still said truthfully in a low voice: "You are all working hard, I don't want to sit by and watch the scenery like a mascot."

He knew that Lux's intention of taking him there was just for him to enjoy the scenery of the spore forest.

But in such an environment, his self-esteem does not allow him to do nothing.

"I could have helped and I was able to do what I can," he added.

Lux thought for a moment, and admitted frankly: "I was wrong today."

Ruan Chen was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and raised his eyes to look at the mermaid.

"It's the first time I have a human being." Lux had gentle eyes, "When I was with you, I didn't have experience in many things, so I didn't do very well."

"I'm sorry about picking fruit today. It's true that I underestimated Ruanruan." Lux apologized to him again very sincerely, "I should consider your feelings more."

The attitude of the mermaid is so low, Ruan Chen feels very embarrassed.

It was also his first time getting along with a mermaid, and it was normal for him to have conflicts in his thoughts.

Ruan Chen lowered his head: "...you can't stop me from what I want to do from now on."

After listening, Lux discussed with him: "I will consider your ability and not overprotect you."

After finishing speaking, he raised Ruan Chen's chin again: "But Ruan Ruan, you have to promise me one thing."

Ruan Chen blinked: "What?"

"When you encounter something you really can't deal with, don't be impulsive, and you can't refuse my protection." Lux said seriously.

Ruan Chen has an impatient personality, and sometimes he will deliberately try to be brave. After getting along during this time, he has already felt it.

He is also aware of his personality. In the past, because of his impatience, he couldn't see anything bullying the weak, so he learned a little bit of kung fu and became a little bit more capable.

As a result, he caused many misfortunes, and I don’t know how many times he was punished by his grandfather.

Ruan Chen nodded his head lightly: "Okay, I agree."

Guang Kong said that there was no proof, Ruan Chen raised his fist and stretched out his little finger: "You hook me up."

"What do you mean?" Lux wondered.

Ruan Chen explained to him: "Hook your little finger on top of mine, this is a kind of... ritual."

"After pulling the hook, no one can break the oath."

The mermaid stretched out his hand and gently hooked Ruan Chen's little finger.

The size contrast is too strong, making his hand look like a pocket version.

Ruan Chen blushed, didn't look at the mermaid's eyes, and said to him: "Put your thumb out again and stamp me."

Lux did as he said.

The mermaid's skin was cold, and Ruan Chen shivered imperceptibly with his thumbs touching each other.

"Okay." After a set of movements, he quickly let go of his hand.

It was the first time Lux saw this novel way of swearing, he raised his eyebrows, and glanced down at his thumb.

Inexplicably, there is a feeling that some fetters have really occurred.

Ruan Chen quietly rubbed his thumb a few times, but the mermaid's skin felt like it was sticking to it, lingering.

Lux remembered something: "One more thing. Ruanruan, you are not some kind of mascot."

Ruan Chen caught Ruan Chen's little paw coldly and was caught by him again: "When you quarreled with Thain on the news before, do you know how much you helped everyone?"

Ruan Chen really didn't expect this.

He shook his head and opened his eyes wide: "Is there any follow-up to this matter?"

He has ignored those crazy @his netizens in the forum these days.

"Of course." Lux felt that it was nothing to tell his human beings about these things, so he said briefly, "The royal family originally withheld the special energy supply of X Base, so the supply was insufficient in the first battle, and the Zerg seized the opportunity."

"If it continues to develop, the entire base may be lost."

"But you made this matter a big deal, and the public opinion is inclined towards our military headquarters. The royal family dare not provoke the public, so of course they dare not withhold the energy of the X base."

Ruan Chen turned his head around, and he figured out the doorway in one go.

He actually made a mistake and helped such a big favor?

As soon as they finished speaking, there was a knock on the door of the command room: "Lux, it's me, Vincent."

"Please come in."

As soon as Vincent came in, he couldn't wait to announce happily: "Great! Lux! I was notified just now that the royal family has completely compromised and promised to restore the energy supply to Base X immediately!"

Seeing them so happy, Ruan Chen, who was advertised as a hero by Lux just now, was really a little shy.

He raised his head with a small movement, but he was meeting Lux who was looking down at him.

The mermaid's eyes are bright.

Before Ruan Chen had time to react, he was picked up by him.

The source crystal fruit fell on the sofa.

Ruan Chen turned his head to take a look, and the next moment, Lux kissed the side of his face: "Ruan Ruan, I really have to thank you this time."

"Meow...! (You sneak attack again)"

Vincent watched helplessly as Lux was scratched in the face by his human's small paw again.

But instead of being angry, he seemed happier, holding Ruan Chen's claws and taking another sip.

"Meow ow ow-"

This time it was completely blown.

The biggest energy problem was solved, and Lux ​​and Vincent soon left the command room to deal with the matter of contacting the royal family.

Ruan Chen stayed on the sofa alone, he wasn't sleepy yet, and didn't want to go back to his room.

The most important thing is...he has been coveting this fruit for a long time.

After the source crystal fruit is picked, it no longer has the hazy halo of the original layer, but it is still very eye-catching.

What attracted Ruan Chen even more was its faint fragrance.

It's not obvious, it seems that the mermaids didn't notice it.

But Ruan Chen could always smell it, he didn't want the mermaid to feel that he was too greedy, so he could bear it no matter what.

He was the only one left in the command room now.

Ruan Chen's eyes sparkled, and he stretched out his sinful claws towards this fruit.

two hours later.

Lux who came back to pick up Ruan Chen to sleep pushed open the door, and was startled for a second when he saw the human on the sofa holding the fruit and sucking his head.

"Ruanrou, this can't be..." Lux rushed over.

Can't drink too much at one go...

He thought that Ruan Chen would not be hungry for a while after eating the canned food, and the shell of the fruit was hard, so it was not easy to break open.

But he still underestimated the creativity of a foodie human.

A few pieces of metal broken from cans were scattered on the sofa, which could be seen as tools for committing crimes.

Ruan Chen, who had stolen everything, raised his head in confusion, with two blushes floating on his cheeks.

Lux reached out and took the fruit with a straw stuck in it from his arms, shaking it on his hand.

Empty, drank down to a shell.

"Miwu..." Ruan Chen narrowed his eyes drunkenly, pointed at Lux tremblingly.

He opened his mouth to speak, but he burped loudly first: "Hic—"

Milky white bubbles floated up slowly in front of Lux.

Ruan Chen swallowed, looking puzzled, poking his chin with his fingers and looking at him with unfocused black eyes, and asked seriously: "Meow meow meow? (Why do you have... three heads?)"

The author has something to say: "Drunk Milk"
