Unprepared to hear this question, Xie Luan was stunned for a moment, and there was a hint of confusion on his expression.
Adopt a little mermaid...
Before he could react for a while, Xie Luan stopped in place, suddenly not knowing how to think about this problem.
Originally, because he was a nurseryman and took care of the cubs in the branch every day, Xie Luan never thought about adopting the cubs.
But now that someone asked him this question, Xie Luan naturally fell into thinking.
"I..." Xie Luan opened his mouth and uttered a syllable, but he still couldn't think of the next words, and his voice died down.
Not knowing what the young man was thinking about, Xia Qi still kept a serious expression on her face, and her tone of voice was also serious: "I think if someone wants to adopt Xiao Jiaer, you, Luan, are the most suitable one. "
Xia Qi can be sure that she is not the only one who thinks this way in the branch. If you ask other people, they must think the same as her.
No way, the first word that this merman cub from his branch said when he recovered his voice was "Papa", shouting to the young man.
After learning the ability, the first word written with the ability is still these two words, so let's not talk about the fact that the little mermaid handed over the first scale that the little mermaid dropped to the youth for safekeeping.
"And besides you, I don't think little Garr will be adopted by anyone else." Xia Qi added.
This mermaid cub has long regarded the youth as a parent. The only difference between Xie Luan's adoption and not adopting is whether he and this cub have formally established a parent-child relationship.
Hearing this statement in a tone of voice, Xie Luan couldn't help but turn his eyes to the indoor pool.
Ask him to adopt this merman cub...
According to personal wishes, Xie Luan is willing in his heart.
But Xie Luan couldn't just nod his head and say yes, because he still had some concerns, for example, he didn't know if he could really be a good parent.
It is very difficult to be a good parent. Xie Luan has always thought that if he adopts this little mermaid cub, can he make this little mermaid grow up happily
And compared to him, whether this cub would be happier if it was adopted by another family, this is something Xie Luan is still hesitant to be sure of.
"Let me think about it." No precise answer was given, but Xie Luan's expression was obviously serious consideration.
Although Xia Qi just said that he is the most suitable, Xie Luan does not have such confidence. Adopting a cub is something that cannot be taken lightly, and he must make a careful decision.
Seeing that the young man was actually very willing to adopt the mermaid cub, Xia Qi didn't say much, and whether or not to adopt it in the end, she couldn't make this choice for the other party.
Xie Luan thought about it for a long time, and there were two voices arguing with each other in his mind.
When it was so noisy that he couldn't hear the content at the end, Xie Luan clenched his right hand into a fist and tapped his forehead a few times.
After knocking out the messy thoughts, Xie Luan walked towards the indoor pool in a clear direction.
He swam to the pool early because he heard footsteps. As the young man gradually approached him, the icy blue fish tail under the water swayed more clearly, and the azure blue eyes were always fixed on on the youth.
"Papa~"
Grabbing the young man's left trouser leg, the mermaid cub made two clear monophonic sounds, and the expressionless delicate face seemed to be happy.
Cubs are happy when they see their parents, which is a very instinctive reaction.
Xie Luan took a towel when he came over. He bent down and picked up the little mermaid from the pool, wrapped it in a towel to dry off the water on his body, and then carried the little mermaid into his arms.
Xie Luan hugged the little mermaid and sat on a rattan chair not far away. He lowered his head and gently wiped the little mermaid's hair with a towel, while pondering what he wanted to say to the little mermaid. talk.
As if sensing something from the young man's different expression, the young man did not speak, and the mermaid cub was also very quiet now, and the blue eyes continued to look at his parents.
"Papa." Looking at the cub's clean eyes, Xie Luan pointed to himself. After a long pause, he said the second half of the sentence, "I'll be Cal's Papa, the formal one. Will Cal be willing?"
As soon as he said it, Xie Luan immediately felt that what he said was wrong, and the cub might not understand what he meant formally.
But Xie Luan wanted to change his mouth at this time. He just opened his mouth slightly, and before he had time to say anything, a soft touch from his cheek made him stop his voice.
The little mermaid tried to rub its cheek against the youth's face, because there was still some distance between the two, and the little mermaid tried very hard to raise his head a little higher.
The caudal fin flicked, and the ice-blue caudal fin of the mermaid cub now began to sway up and down like a small fan.
Although Xie Luan hadn't had time to react yet, he lowered his head reflexively when he saw the little mermaid in his arms trying to get closer to rubbing against his cheek.
As soon as he lowered his head, the smooth touch he felt on his cheek disappeared. Xie Luan just blinked, and the next second, he felt as if his cheek had been slapped.
"Papa~Papa~"
After uttering these two syllables in a row, the mermaid cub looked at Xie Luan without blinking. According to the racial instinct of the mermaid race, the little mermaid began to sing a very beautiful song.
The mermaid's singing was very appealing, and for the rest of Rainbow Dash's staff and the cubs, it was the first time they had heard the little mermaid sing.
Just like the audience on the shores of the Reine Sea at that time, several adults in the hall stopped their work and listened to the beautiful singing together.
The second time he heard the mermaid cub sing to him, Xie Luan approached and kissed the little mermaid on the forehead.
Adopting a cub had to go through procedures, even if Xie Luan was the actual manager of the Rainbow Branch now, he had to follow the rules.
The identity problem was solved with money a long time ago. Xie Luan had obtained the citizenship of Gaia Star before, so there is no need to worry about this part of the proof. The rest of the proofs can be prepared with a little effort. In a few days, Xie Luan made another trip to Gaia Star's adoption registration agency and handed in all the proof materials.
After completing the adoption procedures, Xie Luan and the little mermaid in the branch will truly have a parent-child relationship.
I did adopt a mermaid cub, and Xie Luan's work and life will not change, but after a while, all the cub care clubs in Interstellar will usher in a very important thing for them. .
Two months later, the Star Alliance will open the application for assessment of all cub care clubs. This is an opportunity only once every two years. The clubs that submit the application will receive the on-site assessment of the Star Alliance dispatched personnel in order.
The assessment score determines whether a branch can be included in the official list produced by the Star Alliance, that is, the Star League Excellent Cub Care Club Ranking. The "top 3,000 Cub Care Clubs in the Interstellar" that parents say comes from this list.
A list with a very high degree of authority, every cub care club will of course want to occupy a good position on it, because it can give them a corresponding reputation.
The top 500 are basically relatively stable, and the ranking changes in each assessment are relatively small, but the next 2,500 are fiercely competitive.
It can be said that each of these chapters is full of energy. The ambitious chapters try their best to climb up, while the slower-growing chapters in recent years also strive to stay in the rankings.
Originally, in previous years, Xia Qi didn't pay much attention to this matter, because to apply for the assessment, the branch's hardware facilities and other conditions needed to meet the minimum application requirements, and the Yunbao branch did not meet this requirement.
But their club has now met the conditions and can apply-
Looking at some of the related discussions that had been launched in advance on the Star Online, Xia Qi couldn't hold back her thought.
