Wake’s face flashed with wrath, embarrassment, and repressed pain.
He suddenly looked up, and there was a strand of vigilance in his eyes.
He saw Bai Weiwei trying to get around the stones. She approached him, and crouched down in front of him, appearing a little disorderly.
She gazed at him lovingly and tenderly, and reached out her hand to his lips.
“Drink some of my blood to detoxify.”
It would take some time before the venom in his body was completely resolved.
Bai Weiwei was worried that he would be lured by the venom into heat again, constantly without end.
A merfolk’s second time wouldn’t be finished in just two hours, it would last for days at the minimum.
Wake lifted his cold eyes and scrutinized her intently.
Bai Weiwei didn’t have a guilty conscience, so she calmly stared back at him.
Merfolks inherently distrusted humans.
Even if this human created him.
Who forced merfolk and humans to kill each other for so many years?
But Wake couldn’t find any hint of malice in her eyes.
He turned his head. His body had lost its strength and he could only powerlessly lay on his stomach.
His eyes were gloomy, even his tail had lost its beautiful luster, making it look like he was seriously ill.
Bai Weiwei was still trying to convince him, “Wake, drink, I’m worried about you.”
There were a few threads of spite in Wake’s heart, that woman claimed, stated, and alleged that he was her dream.
How far could she go for her dream?
No matter how pure a human was, their innate nature was vicious and selfish.
There was no reason why her kindness alone would persevere.
He raised his head, ground his teeth, and savagely bit her wrist with a chill in his eyes.
Fresh blood poured past his lips and teeth.
His body began to recover, the feeling was extremely frightening.
Bai Weiwei’s figure was stunned in fear by the sudden attack?
Then there was the pain, but this pain level was fine for her.
Compared to being unable to move and a life and death level of severe pain, this was kindergarten level at most.
So she just faintly frowned, looking at him palely, her eyes tender and serene.
Clearly the blood was very good to drink, his bloodthirsty impulses urged him to gulp more.
Yet, the teeth that bit her fragile wrist softened, not daring to bite deeper.
Her blood was sweet in his mouth but bitter in his heart.
Wake saw a smile on the corner of her mouth.
As if she was willing to have him suck up all her blood.
Maybe the cause was her blood, but his cold heart warmed a little.
He abruptly loosened his teeth. He saw the blood pouring from her wrists and couldn’t help but bow his head to lick.
The wound healed slowly.
Bai Weiwei asked, “Enough?”
Wake bit his lips, and heavily kissed her healing wrists. Then his fair, strong body, dove into the water.
Golden hair, and exquisite tail vaguely visible in the water.
His whole body disappeared into the water.
Seemingly not wanting to face Bai Weiwei.
Then Bai Weiwei heard the system’s notification.
【Ding, the male lead’s favorability is at 40.】
Merfolks didn’t trust human beings.
But once one starts to trust, their feelings would be pure.
And the favorability would naturally rise.
Bai Weiwei quietly crouched next to the water again, finally asking, “Do you think I can catch a fish?”
System: “Why would you attempt that?”
Bai Weiwei: “I’m hungry.”
Tossed for so long, she was indescribably dizzy and hungry enough to die.
Also, she lost quite a lot of blood.
Furthermore, that silly fish comes and goes at every turn, even if his favorability rises.
He was still mentally deficient in her eyes.
Bai Weiwei couldn’t catch a fish, and felt tired. So she fell asleep on the stones.
