Chapter 558: a love rival? Again?
” What do you mean?” Fang Chi frowned upon listening to Chen Mi’s words but then he saw him and suddenly he was already regretting asking the question he shouldn’t have asked. Was it too late for him to retract his words?From the glint in Chen Mi’s eyes, he could see that the answer was a yes.
” So, where is the spot where you find a lot of boars?” Yu Dong asked as she turned to look at Li Li, though she hunted a few animals in the past, she has never gone looking for them. Instead, she just traced her spiritual energy whenever she needed to hunt but these days the forest was covered with rain and it was getting harder and harder to trace the spiritual energy of animals which was she has been having a hard time going deep in the forest with the scents of animals washed and them hiding from the rain.
“It’s just over the small cliff, you know …the one that is over the hedge that is located at the point where the deep forest starts,” Li Li replied, now that the matter was concerning her tastebuds, she was speaking a lot more than she would have usually.
” I see, then we have to be——-” Yu Dong hardly said anything when she was suddenly interrupted by a shrill cry.
” Miss Yu! Please wait!”
Yu Dong was surprised when someone called her from behind, she turned her head and was even more shocked when she noticed a mer running close to her. What did he want from her now? Yu Dong thought in her head as she turned on her heel to look at the mer who was chasing after her.
He was a pretty little thing, with his palm size face and delicate body. His hair was two shades lighter making it look auburn and with the dash of cuteness that was sprinkled on his face, he looked rather pretty like a little elf.
Even his eyes were a lighter shade of brown, no wonder the unmarried women were all turning their heads to look at him, he was indeed beautiful but when compared to Xiao Hua who was a devastating beauty himself, the little mer was not as good looking in Yu Dong’s view as Xiao Hua was.
Yet when the mer asked her to stop, she indeed put a halt on her pace but instead of walking towards the mer, she waited for him to come close to her.
“It’s..hah… it is a good thing that I saw you before you went to the forest,” the mer smiled at Yu Dong as he panted with his hands on his knees. ” I was thinking that I was going to miss you, I am glad that I did not.”
“Is there something that you need from me?” Yu Dong asked keeping her words polite, she didn’t want to be taken as someone who was being over-friendly with the mer just because he was pretty. And what was more, her husbands were standing RIGHT. BEHIND. HER.
She could feel two gazes burning at the back of her head and knew that if she so much as tried to get close to the mer or even offered a smile then she will be kneeling on a durian once she gets back home.
” That….” The mer turned his head to look at his friends who were all nodding their heads at him and then turned to look at Yu Dong with a determined clench of his teeth. ” I was … I wanted to give you this.” He took the flower crown that he was hiding behind his back and then showed it to Yu Dong. ” I can’t offer you much for saving my life back then in the flood but if not for you I would have drowned. This is my thank you to you, Miss Yu ..please don’t refuse it.”
The mer was smart enough to gift the flower crown under the pretext of thanking Yu Dong, this way he was able to make Yu Dong notice him and even save his reputation from getting stained. Even if someone was to say anything to him, at least he will be able to say that he was only thanking Yu Dong for saving his life and nothing more.
Ye Liu threw the ladle he was holding in his hands to the mammy who was standing next to him, it was one thing for him to share his wife with the other mers who married her but it was another thing for another mer who had nothing to do with his wife to pop out of nowhere and start hitting on his wife like this!
He wasn’t someone who would show off his affection to Yu Dong that much but he was very jealous, in fact, he was the most jealous one in the entire family!
” Liu, calm down.” Shen Li who was offering the porridge to the kids handed the bowl to the young mer and then placed his hand on Ye Liu’s shoulder as he tried to placate him. ” You don’t need to be this angry, keep a steady mind—-” he paused when he noticed that Yu Dong took the flower crown and his smile turned stiff.

Was this another one of their rivals?
” Do we stay calm now, brother Li?” asked Ye Liu as he turned his head to look at Shen Li who smiled at him in a murderous manner and patted him on the shoulder. ” Not at all, go and get that mer!”
Before Yu Dong could say anything there was a commotion as she felt someone rush towards her and then ——
Wham!
Somebody knocked into her as she barrelled to the side and if not for two strong arms clenching her waist she would have fallen on the ground, stunned she looked down and was surprised to see that it was none other than Ye Liu.
” Wifey, what are you doing here? Why didn’t you tell me that you were coming hmm?” Ye Liu asked his eyes shining as he looked up at Yu Dong, seeing him acting all cutesy like this made Yu Dong’s heart all warm and fuzzy as an arrow shot right through her.
Ye Liu… was acting cute?
