Chapter 27: Bullying A Fish
Translated by Addis of Exiled Rebels Scanlations

Ruan Yu sighed softly, curled his tail around the pillow and thought hard about what Shen Jingya said.
What would a future without Gu Xiuhan look like, would it be regrettable?
Even if he thought about it, he knew that the relationship could not be restored, they could not pretend that these days did not happen.
But he certainly couldn’t leave Gu Xiuhan, his heart twisted the most at the thought of the future sticky brother.
But with Gu Xiuhan’s nature, the probability would be him going away far from him, to a border star to stay for several years. With that all the emotions would be repressed back to the bottom of the heart.
And then, they would drift apart until they became as distant as two strangers.
The more Ruan Yu thought about it, the more anxious he became, and his fish tail twisted the pillow. How could he not regret it, if it really came to that?
Just a little imagination already made him sad to the point that his eyes were sore and hot.
Ruan Yu wiped his nose with a tissue, and wiped down the end of his light red eyes.
But Gu Xiuhan’s longing for him seemed like he had been barren for 800 years, and the spirit body was heating up to blazing white these days, and the valley owed hope so passionately that it seemed like it would burst and splash everywhere in a minute. Ruan Yu felt his eyes were no longer pure even when he glanced at them.
He was sure to be treated strangely and outrageously for a mermaid…. Ruan Yu’s tail wagged and his face tensed as he thought about it.
The fundamental contradiction between them seemed to be that the needs of the mermaid and the human were not in sync.
But are human “needs” a bad thing that needs to be abated and avoided?
Because when he confided in Auntie Shen about his troubles, Auntie Shen, who was so kind to him, did not refute his relayed “instinctive theory”, nor did she tell him to avoid the suitor, and even encouraged him to follow his own heart and make independent decisions…
And after eliminating this contradiction, thinking that Gu Xiuhan was really good at everything, he was attractive to the fish in every way.
Even the genetic level was the highest, SSS-level genes must produce a superb little one…
But then he remembered the day he lifted his shirt to show Gu Xiuhan his red belly, the phrase that flashed through Gu Xiuhan’s mind…
[The place where my baby is carrying the small fish eggs.]
The tone of voice was so swollen and crowded that it could not be concealed, and the cover had to be put on to shoot out from the holes, obsession and anxiety.
Ruan Yu was really scared to listen to it from afar.
So annoying, ah! Everyday he took time to understand Gu Xiuhan’s thoughts about him, but how could they be so heavy, ah!
Ruan Yu covered his belly with melancholy, and tangled into a fish ball in the blanket.
It may be because he had been thinking about that impure thing, these days when Ruan Yu saw Gu Xiuhan was uncomfortable, even if they were only together for a meal, his nerves were fluttering like a needle.
Not only him, Gu Xiuhan had also become different from before. Even just by looking at him they could tell that he was not dressed properly, no longer wrapped in a military jacket on a hot day with the collar buttoned to the top, he would also wear a less dignified half-sleeve shirt or something, so that the clothes that show the body outline a pair of broad shoulders and narrow waist, and bulging up the fabric of the full pectoral muscles…
This pattern of behavior was very much like a male fish that normally stays cool, but deliberately shows off his beautiful body in front of sub-males and females during the courtship period, so Ruan Yu saw through it right away.
His eyes immediately drifted to Gu Xiuhan’s body, and Ruan Yu had to be careful to pull back.
Gu Xiuhan learned how to seduce the fish, feeling shamelessly and strangely good-looking.
The reason why Ruan Yu ate a meal until his face was red and eyelashes fluttering.
It was really too difficult.
Because of the uncomfortable heart and hug at every turn, Ruan Yu somewhat wanted to avoid Gu Xiuhan. Of course, he did not dare to hide too obviously, for fear of backlash, but also every day played in the sea for a little longer, after waking up in his own bedroom.
The result was that even such a weak degree of hiding was noticed by Gu Xiuhan.
The consequence was that Ruan Yu was hugged more often, and sometimes Gu Xiuhan didn’t even have to “not cure today” to cover up a bit, so he hugged hard and forced the fish to be held.
One of the most outrageous and most humiliating things for Ruan Yu happened early that morning at six o’clock.
Ruan Yu loved to sleep, not to mention being awake at this time, even lifting the eyelids was very difficult, he was woken up by the humidifier “beep”.
The humidifier has been short of water for half a day, his skin was dry and a bit tense.
The robot housekeeper, who was several versions behind the Capitol’s universal AI, was crouching on the energy charging port, charging up to the point of disowning him.
Ruan Yu’s sleepy head was full of glue but there was no one to support, so he had to depressingly change his tail into his lower limbs and go get solid water tablets by himself.
And Gu Xiuhan happened to return to the residence from the training ground at that time.
In order to curb the urge to wake up extra hard in the morning, he woke up early every day to do physical training, only to come back to this scene –
“I thought it was here…”
In the living room, Ruan Yu, with a head full of soft silver hair, was crouching in front of the storage drawer, flipping through things and asking a lot of questions.
The left side of his face was flushed, still printed with sheet creases, round eyes half open and half closed, sleepy as if he was about to fall asleep in the drawer.
Because he didn’t expect to run into Gu Xiuhan even when he slipped out to get something in the early morning, Ruan Yu only had a loose top on. The other parts were bare, white like frozen cow’s milk, squatting to squeeze out a bit of thirsty flesh.
“…”
Gu Xiuhan’s breath sank.
Doing a full set of the highest specification physical training only barely consumed part of the energy that rose back in the blink of an eye. In fact, Gu Xiuhan’s determination was already so strong that it far exceeded that of normal people.
The vast majority of things he said he did not want to be able to shift his thoughts, and vice versa, can intentionally meditate on some of the words contrary to the real thoughts, even the heart sound could be faked.
Only this matter.
He could not restrain, more precisely⊠It was impossible to say since when he did not really want to restrain himself.
Gu Xiuhan stood there for several seconds before Ruan Yu, who was sleepy and wilting, suddenly looked up.
“Brother Xiuhan you… Why are you here.” Ruan Yu asked dumbly, his voice sleepy and sticky and sweet, like maltose.
Gu Xiuhan stared at him with sunken eyes, not even bothering to make a sound.
It was so normal to show up in the living room of one’s house at six in the morning… Do you need to explain?
“Then… Good night then.”
Ruan Yu also did not really want to ask, and without finding things he wanted did not wait for his answer and hurriedly said, “I’m going to sleep.”
I don’t know how it happened, but it seemed that the sky was spinning and disoriented for a while.
When he came back to his senses, Ruan Yu was sitting on Gu Xiuhan’s big chest, and his eyes, which were not completely awake, blinked slowly, full of confusion and anxiety, pleading in a small voice, “I haven’t slept enough, can you let me go to sleep?”
But Gu Xiuhan, as if he didn’t understand the words, shackled Ruan Yu’s thin back and bent arms that were pushing against him in his arms, and called softly, “Ruan Ruan…”
[I seem to be serious again.]
Ruan Yu muttered discontentedly, “What can you be serious about…”
You’ve been strangling me for the past few days, and it’s never ending.
[You’re avoiding me.]
[Don’t you want to cure me anymore?]
[…]
The aura was obviously so intimidating, but also forced to hoop him not to let go, the heart sound but inexplicably miserable, simply like a large abandoned wolf dog.
“No, ah, I do not want that.”
This kind of coaxing from Ruan Yu softened the nature of two sentences, and was made to be embarrassed to say what he said, only twisted around a small struggle, avoiding the heavy said, “you are so sweaty … I don’t want it, it doesn’t smell good…”
It really does not smell good.
With Gu Xiuhan’s training amount of ten minutes he sweated like a waterfall, to the back of the sweat composition had been diluted and almost water, and did not compost, could not smell the smell of sweat much.
Must say, but Gu Xiuhan’s cold pine wood scent became obvious. Ruan Yu grew up loving this smell. In addition, there was another kind of hard to describe…
It is about the strong scent of testosterone. It was too strong.
The clean pajamas were still stained by Gu Xiuhan’s sweat, blotting out a watermark.
Between the struggle, the arm slides against the arm.
The cheeks burned redder and redder, the tip of Ruan Yu’s nose fluttered, and somehow a strange sensation rolled around in his abdomen like a packet of warm, hot water.
It was hot and sour.
Ruan Yu’s forehead and the bridge of his nose were suddenly permeated with small drops of sweat.
“I’ll give… Can’t I give you a hug?” Ruan Yu, who was vaguely aware of his bizarre change, was completely flustered.
He pulled the hem of his shirt down desperately and his voice trembled thinly in shame.
“Can you let me go first, to put on… Ah?”
The word was deliberately vague and whispered.
The mushy white skin and flesh made Gu Xiuhan tense up and his firm muscles bulged slightly.
Gu Xiuhan eyes slightly drooping, Adam’s apple rolled.
[How bare?]
As if he just found out.
As if saying those words through his heart sound and keeping his face straight would be pardoned.
“Because, because I came out to pick up something and went back, and I didn’t expect…”
I didn’t expect to meet a bad guy again.
Ruan Yu secretly said bad things about Gu Xiuhan in his heart.
Finally, Gu Xiuhan was still bullying him for a while, only later letting the unlucky delirious little fish go.
Ruan Yu returned to his room, sat in a trance on the edge of his crib for a long time, and after waking up, found that there was still no water in the humidifier.
“…”
How can you bully a fish like that? Just fuck him to death. And… I feel that I have become impure.
Ruan Yu, with two bags of tears in his eyes, pulled at the hem of his shirt, which had not yet disappeared.
I didn’t even know that mermaids would be in this situation outside of the courtship period.
How to act like a human, not really want to be a human…
Ruan Yu looked worried. He didn’t know how to deal with it, so he had to wait until normalcy returned.
After such a small episode, Ruan Yu felt that he could not look at Gu Xiuhan directly.
The degree to which Gu Xiuhan stuck to him now was even greater than the degree to which he used to stick to Gu Xiuhan.
There was no room for people to take a breather.
So when Lin Hui came to invite Ruan Yu to join the party organized by her sisters, and politely said that most of the people who came to play this time are college students who came to the base for internship, the atmosphere may be more rowdy than last time, and Admiral Gu would not like it, Ruan Yu was busy agreeing to her invitation.
If he doesn’t find a place away from Gu Xiuhan to calm down, Ruan Yu felt his head was going to be cooked by the fire of shame.
Don’t look at the quiet Gu Xiuhan, but in fact he really can harm people.
