Chapter 14: Baby Mermaid
Translated by Addis of Exiled Rebels Scanlations

Qin Yue had just socially died, and was gazed at by a pair of cold air exuding pitch-black eyes, those dirty and scarlet conjectures instantly dissipated cleanly, and the brain was clear.
[…]
The brain signal was already only snowflake noise.
Even so, Ruan Yu did not dare to get too close to Qin Yue who had strange thoughts, and kept a social distance to observe.
The sound wave healing had stopped, but Qin Yue’s mental body resonance did not stop immediately, and continued under the effect of inertia.
Ruan Yu felt that this was not a bad thing, because the damaged area of Qin Yue’s mental body was showing signs of reversal along with the disturbance of those ripples, like a spring breeze blowing away the accumulated dust and dirt, the burnt black color faded a little, revealing a little of the original base color of the mental body.
… Could it be that the mental energy had advanced?
Ruan Yu put one hand on his cheek, slowly thinking.
The research institute researched the scant documentation left behind by Ruan Yu’s home planet, and concluded that unlike ordinary mermaid royalty, the mental energy of mature mermaid royalty would gradually undergo a metamorphosis after differentiation and complete separation from the baby Ruan Yu stage. A qualitative leap…
The exact change remained unknown, but the possibility of “increased spiritual healing ability” was quite high.
“I see that the damaged areas of your spirit are improving,” Ruan Yu asked curiously, “How do you feel about it?”
“Uh…” Qin Yue was only concerned with embarrassment just now, and only after he returned to his senses did he gradually notice the change.
Ever since the mental body was eroded by the contaminated liquid of that advanced alien species, a certain area deep in the brain was like having iron water poured over it, being sunken and imprisoned, accompanied by the decline of various mental attributes and brain functions. In order to return to the mecha special formation, he tried all kinds of new therapies, no matter what, it could only alleviate the symptoms, but no treatment would ever be like this, so that he could actually feel the dull and heavy “thing” deep in his mind like cast iron was disappearing, bringing a kind of indescribable comfort…
“It feels… It’s very good,” Qin Yue’s language skills were limited and he tried his best to describe it for Ruan Yu’s reference, “especially good, my head is lighter, I’ve never felt like this before.”
“Mn, is there more?” Ruan Yu imitated the way the researcher wrote the experiment report and fervently recorded Qin Yue’s feeling with his terminal.
New changes in ability should be collected as much information as possible first, then notify the research institute. He couldn’t take Qin Yue as a mouse, anyway, the pain of Qin Yue’s next attack had been greatly relieved, Ruan Yu intended to suspend the treatment and let Qin Yue observe for a period of time.
After the record was done, due to Gu Xiuhan’s pressure, Qin Yue didn’t dare to stay for half a second more, thanked him and left in a hurry.
Ruan Yu sent the report to the research institute, and then leaned back in the settee and stared. His fingers stroked thoughtfully over the small soft lip bead, pulling it to and fro in a childish manner, as if he was curious as to why Qin Yue was specifically unable to stand it.
Suddenly, Ruan Yu seemed to have figured out something, and a little bit of impertinent disgust came out between his eyebrows.
It was as if he was regretting how Qin Yue had changed his mind at such a young age and was full of thoughts of sucking on the mouths of others.
However…
In all conscience, Qin Yue’s imaginary thoughts, compared to Gu Xiuhan’s repressed for years, accumulated in a hot and humid corner, slowly fermented out the thick valley owes hope… It was simply a small matter.
If one day, Ruan Yu really read his heart and heard those unpleasant thoughts…
What would Ruan Yu think of him?
Gu Xiuhan was silent for a while, then suddenly called out softly, “Ruan Ruan.”
Ruan Yu raised his eyes, the flesh of his lips had been red and slightly swollen from his own unintentional pinching and playing, Gu Xiuhan just swept over it and dropped his gaze with difficulty.
“Qin Yue wants those,” Gu Xiuhan said word by word, “because he has a good feeling for you.”
This explanation was different from the imagination, Ruan Yu wrinkled his brow and questioned, “Isn’t it perverted…”
“If someone doesn’t do something against your will, it doesn’t count.” Gu Xiuhan said calmly.
“… But the guy who was thinking about stealing my socks last time didn’t really do it either,” Ruan Yu said, carefully sorting through Gu Xiuhan’s logic, “and you fired him and told me he was a pervert.”
Ruan Yu waited for half a day without additional explanation and asked sullenly, “How is it different?”
If you want to compare which is worse: biting your mouth or stealing a sock, stealing a sock without physical contact is less harmful and the sock is not worth much.
In nature, only humans could think of seven things every day during the courtship period. Unlike humans, mermaids were completely pure and desireless before the differentiation period came.
Just from the books, Ruan Yu learned about the structure and function of the human body, purely as biological knowledge, would not be aroused by the reverie, and would never be like those 17 or 18-year-old impetuous teenagers secretly reading some restricted things behind the back of the parent, to learn about the patterns not in the textbook, and fantasize about something.
The temptation of sex often comes from the dark, and mermaids tend to be transparent and honest with each other, so mermaids were more or less inclined to be slightly sexually apathetic.
Even if the differentiation completed and became mature, the mermaid would mostly only come together with their mate when the breeding fever came, for the sake of racial continuity and routine.
The rest of the time, the mermaid’s mate was basically there for a platonic warm companionship, and spiritual love.
As a result, Ruan Yu would act like he had fewer senses when it came to humans who were full of crooked and obscure thoughts.
It cannot be said that he lacks common sense, but he really did not understand.
After all, biology books wouldn’t introduce all kinds of common human sexual fetishes, nor would they teach people how to fall in love, how to hold hands and hug and kiss.
Gu Xiuhan was silent for a long time, and when he spoke again, his voice was emotionless, “He not only wanted to steal, but also do other things.”
Ruan Yu knew that the topic had touched the forbidden area of the conversation. It was not convenient to ask further questions, but could not help but be curious, so he asked in a whispered voice, “What other things will he do?”
“…”
Gu Xiuhan used all of his concentration to hold back his fantasies.
The slippery, soft, silky fabric…
Ruan Yu gouged uneasily at the arm of the sofa, thinking of the group of guards who had been mentally saying that he smelled good when he got up, and was suddenly shaken by the speculation within his own head, “Could it be it smells… Really smelly?”
Some humans were truly weird, making the fish’s head spin.
“Not necessarily,” the pupils of Gu Xiuhan’s eyes were dark and fixed on the little mermaid who couldn’t stop asking questions, “it could be more, don’t ask.”
How else could it be too much?
Ruan Yu was terrified, like a quail, pursing his mouth not to say anything.
In the room, the warm sweet body fragrance fluctuated. This fragrance was getting stronger every day, and Ruan Yu’s real estrus period was coming up soon.
Gu Xiuhan brought the topic back to the original point, and with a trace of probing, asked in a light voice, “Qin Yue has a good feeling for you, what do you think?”
Ruan Yu had no idea about Qin Yue, he retrieved some social etiquette instilled by Shen Jingya, his face which easily showed color and couldn’t hide his heart was still white and clean when mentioning Qin Yue, and answered the question like a serious one, “Then thank him for his appreciation?”
“… Hmm.”
Gu Xiuhan gently sighed in relief. It’s okay.
I’m not too ignorant to be abducted by any handsome looking man.
“But I’m almost at the courtship stage,” Ruan Yu wrinkled his brow, thinking seriously, “it’s time to consider finding a mate…”
Ruan Yu knew that reproduction was the combination of two biological cells that gave birth to fish eggs and then to little fish babies .
If there was no male mermaid, male human cells could also be used.
This was verified by the research institute, Ruan Yu had seen the hybrid little fish baby born of a female mermaid and male human, healthy and cute, retaining all the characteristics of mermaid and mental field skills, and IQ rating reached the average human. In other words, that is, a little smarter than an ordinary mermaid.
The loneliness of living on an alien planet and among alien races since childhood faded because he was nurtured by love, but it could never be completely eliminated.
Ruan Yu was envious of the female mermaid that gave birth to hybrid little fish cubs, whose husband was a senior researcher and they had known each other for many years. Ruan Yu had met the family a few times. The two little fish babies would mimic her singing voice when their mother sang, they would play with their mother in the artificial pool with water arrows and water bubbles, they would use EEG signals to exchange little secrets with their mother, and they would eat and laugh in the helpless and conniving eyes of their human father…
Ruan Yu rarely had the opportunity to contact his own kind, and had long lost the real sense of mermaid kin. If he could give birth to one or two relatives linked to his own bloodline, he felt that it would be a very happy thing.
“What kind of mate are you looking for?”
Gu Xiuhan inquired, without the slightest ripple in his tone or demeanor.
“Well,” Ruan Yu hesitated, “it’s best to be like me, normal, except for the courtship period don’t think about that kind of stuff every day, it’s weird and scary.”
“…” Gu Xiuhan’s face was expressionless, ” Anything else?”
“I don’t know about the others,” Ruan Yu knew exactly what to expect, so he had to move the only standard of energization, “to have a higher genetic level, right?”
The SSS-rated Gu Xiuhan smiled, as if to increase his presence, and slightly changed his sitting position.
Ruan Yu added, “Because I want to have a smarter cub.”
To avoid growing up like him to listen to people “stupid ah, stupid ah” all the time.
You are still so young, not long before you reach adulthood… You want to have little fish?
Underneath the upright uniform, the heart was beating furiously, and the plasma pumping out was hot, burning those bad thoughts that were kept in the stomach and could not be said even if they died, until they became like a pile of distorted volcanic rocks that were melted and deformed, falling heavily and painfully in the stomach pouch.
[Know how to give birth?]
[You can’t just bite your lip a few times to give birth to a baby fish.]
…
The ignorant little mermaid who thought that the routine with his spouse was just like in the book, but in fact did not even quite understand the meaning of routine, was pushed into a corner, confined by a brick wall of arms and embraces, not knowing what would happen next, and politely said that his spouse was making him uncomfortable like this.
He wanted to break free, thin arms and legs but could not wring, was pinched soft cheek flesh forced to open the mouth when still naively complained of face pain, until even the tip of the tongue was fiercely sucked, kissed to the teary eyes, still grunting and reading the book, said the birth of small fish do not need to kiss the mouth …
Even imagining such a picture, Gu Xiuhan’s eyebrows and lips were suffused with a sense of abstinence and self-restraint. His face did not change color.
After a few moments of silence, he reminded in a light voice, “Do not make decisions easily, if there is a favorite…”
Ruan Yu said, “I know, I will bring them back to you.”
Gu Xiuhan nodded with restraint, “Mn, I’ll help you pick.”


The mermaid-human family with their baby mermaids sound really sweet!
Thanks for the chapter!
