“That’s why they can’t move about once they come to the world beyond the sea.”
“Are there really mermaids in this world?”
She put on a mysterious look. “Who knows? I’ll continue.”
“The little princess finally turned 15 and was allowed to float on the sea. She looked around excitedly, desiring to see everything, At this point, a large ship approached, and many people in gorgeous clothes were celebrating the prince’s birthday on board. The little mermaid was deeply attracted by the
handsome prince. And then suddenly, there was a violent storm. The winds and waves destroyed the ship…”
“The people fell into the water and sank to the bottom of the sea. The mermaid risked her life and rushed into the whirlpool to save the prince. She brought the prince to the shore and gently kissed his forehead before going back to hide in the water, silently waiting for someone to save him. At this time, a
young lady discovered the prince. She called some people over and they brought the prince to safety…”
For the sake of turning her tail into two legs, the little mermaid found a witch, who gave her a potion to drink. Except that when the little mermaid’s tail became legs, it was especially painful, and she had to endure immense pain every step she took.
Youyou felt a wrenching pain in his heart. He wrapped his hands around Yun Shishi’s arm and asked sadly, “Will the little mermaid die?”
She smiled and said, “No.”
“That’s good!” Youyou felt relieved again.
Yun Shishi continued reading, The witch told the little mermaid that if the prince should abandon his own parents and marry the little mermaid out of love, she would obtain an indestructible soul.
But if the prince took another girl as his wife, the little mermaid would die on the morning before the wedding and turn into foam in the sea.
The little mermaid turned pale, but she had no fear. As payment, the witch cut off her tongue and took away her beautiful voice so that she could not speak again. Late at night, the little mermaid left her family and went away, heartbroken.
‘When she came to the shore, she drank the potion, and after that passed out from the intense pain. When she woke up, she was unable to answer the prince’s questions because she could no longer speak. However, she endured the pain and danced for the prince.
Hearing this, Youyou knitted his brows and looked greatly saddened.
As the story progressed, the boy stopped talking.
Especially when it came to that part where the prince did not know that the little mermaid had saved him, and he went on to marry the other princess. He even invited the little mermaid to dance for them.
On the night before the wedding, the little mermaid’s sisters came up to the water surface. It turned out that in order to save their little sister, they had exchanged their hair for a sharp knife. As long as the little mermaid stabbed the prince in the chest with this knife, she could return to the sea.
This was her last chance.
Memories overlapped with the present.
Yun Shishi looked at Youyou, who was lying on the bed. Everything had changed.
He lay on the bed with his eyes closed, but she couldn tell if he was asleep or awake. She gently touched his forehead, closed the book, and got up to leave.
The boy suddenly opened his eyes and asked expressionlessly, “Did she kill the prince?”
Startled, Yun Shishi turned around. Under the moonlight, Youyou slowly sat up on the bed, his steely eyes probing.
“Did she kill the prince with that knife?”
Yun Shishi shook her head and said, “No.”
“No?” The boy said suspiciously, “If she doesn’t kill that prince, she’ll turn into foam.”
This seemed to be the longest sentence Youyou had spoken since he returned to the Mu family..
