All the blood in Jiang Mian's body rushed to his head and face, and then spread to his limbs and bones at the same rapid speed.
The previous moment, his thin face turned red as fire due to the mermaid's merciless questioning. The next moment, the oppressive feeling of witnessing a top predator baring its fangs in front of him made his face pale as paper.
"I, I'm not..." His breathing was intermittent and barely audible, and his heart was filled with panic - no, not just trembling and fear, but also something else, something more severe, as if it hit him from the soul level.
Facing Lapers's anger, Jiang Mian couldn't help but retreat. He gritted his teeth, and his teeth chattered as if he was soaked in ice water. Except for the skin that the mermaid had just touched, which was burning hot, like being touched by a branding iron, and it burned him so much that he couldn't breathe.
What's wrong with me? Jiang Mian asked himself in panic. He wanted to defend himself, but as soon as he opened his mouth, the sobs of fear rolled out of his throat like hiccups. He sobbed once, and then the second and third sobs.
The angry male mermaid in front of him seemed to be emitting a smell... a smell that he could not understand and had never smelled before, but it was real. It was like a terrifying rumbling thundercloud, pressing heavily on the inside of Jiang Mian's nasal cavity, stinging his brain and making him dizzy. He just wanted to curl up tightly and shrink into a corner where no one knew.
Jiang Mian's mind told him: Run away quickly, this situation is too wrong, maybe you will have to take a physical examination afterwards, you have been avoiding it for many years, it's time to face the results of the physical examination; but the emotional part of his heart couldn't help but ask loudly in fear: How could he accuse me of something I didn't do at all and get angry at me
"What's wrong with me?" He covered his eyes, not wanting the mermaid to see the tears of pain. "What's wrong with my body?"
The male mermaid was stunned.
You whined. He whispered.
But in theory, this is impossible, because only cubs and the weaker party in a pair relationship will whine like this. They will make a very special, sad sound from their chest, and then emit a painful and sad smell to vent how hurt they are. However, in the eyes of the former Rappers, this behavior is nothing less than a clever means of manipulation.
He had seen too many times how wailing youngsters made their elders anxious, how wailing mermen drove their mates crazy. Not to mention the youngsters who needed protection—no matter how out of control, how furious, or how ecstatic they were before, when a male merman smelled the pain of his mate, he would immediately drop everything and rush to the other side, eager to accompany and please.
If you add the crying and sobbing...
If diving to the deepest part of the abyss and hunting down one of the most ancient ichthyosaurs could bring joy to his partner, a male mermaid would do it without hesitation.
At this moment, Lapos finally experienced the power of the wailing. Jiang Mian's breath was like a burnt candy, burnt and bitter. It poured hotly on the male mermaid's olfactory sac, making Lapos's whole body tense. The uncontrollable sobbing also made him retract his claws. He instinctively softened his fins and shook his scales, trying to appear harmless as much as possible.
