Chapter 256
But she did not speak.
Only when Su Yan stopped in her tracks, did she speak out
"The ice water has thawed."
"Hmm"
"There are people outside trying to kill you."
"Hmm"
"So, you should hide underwater for a few days"
This time, Donna did not respond; he just looked at Su Yan.
After a long time, footsteps and shouts of battle were heard.
His voice was pleasant, his tone gentle
"You said you want to be with me, but did you mean for a lifetime?"
Su Yan nodded
"Of course"
Donna smiled, leaned forward, and kissed Su Yan’s lips.
"It’s your birthday in three days. I will come to find you; you must wait for me."
"Hmm, okay"
"What color do you like my clothes to be?"
This question from Donna made Su Yan hesitate.
Clothes?
There’s no need for clothes, you already look very good.
But seeing how seriously Donna asked, she looked at his light silver tail and said
"Silver"
Donna touched Su Yan’s head,
"Okay"
As the word "okay" fell, he dove into the water.
When the group of villagers arrived by the river, only Su Yan was there, standing in her strangely oversized clothes.
Beris was helped to walk up to Su Yan.
He looked around Su Yan, and finding nothing, was somewhat unwilling.
Looking at Su Yan, he said with gravity,
"He is a Man-eating Mermaid, by letting him go, you’re brewing trouble!"
Su Yan’s black eyes gazed at him
"Where is the Man-eating Mermaid?"
"You let him go!!"
"Was it I who let the Man-eating Mermaid go, or the Mermaid who spared me?"
Her voice was very light as she posed the question.
The villagers holding torches looked at each other.
They all knew the legends about the Man-eating Mermaids.
Mass murderers, the chances of surviving an encounter with a Man-eating Mermaid are zero.
And yet Beris claimed that it was this young girl who let the Man-eating Mermaid go??
The villagers felt puzzled.
Until someone spoke up and asked
"Beris, you said you saw an ugly monster who saved you, where is that monster?"
Beris’s face turned pale, raising his hand to point at Su Yan,
"It’s her"
Perhaps his injuries were so severe that even his voice turned frail.
As he finished speaking, the villagers got angry.
She is clearly a beautiful girl, where is the alleged monster?
"Hey! Beris! I’ll ask you one more time, where is the monster, you better tell the truth, we don’t have time for your jokes!"
"It’s her, it really is her!"
While saying so, Beris coughed deeply, his weakness evident.
The villagers held back their anger, scoffing
"Beris, you made us come to this castle in this freezing weather just to see this young girl?"
Another villager added,
"And what about those moving dishes, the stove that lights up by itself?"
Just then, soldiers wielding longswords appeared and surrounded the villagers, with the leading soldier kneeling on one knee, hand on chest, towards Su Yan with devotion
"Princess, we are late."
Su Yan nodded
"No matter how they got in, now, kick them out."
"Yes!"
Following the order, the soldiers simultaneously drew their longswords.
Seeing this arrangement, the villagers grew anxious.
They had intruded into this castle uninvited, and it was only natural for the castle’s owner to be angry.
After exchanging glances, the leading villager sighed, looking a bit older, probably one of the more respected speakers in the village.
"I am sorry, Princess, we disturbed you. We will leave now, our apologies."
Following this, the group that came in with such bluster left, dejected and downcast.
