Silence fell.
Indeed, man-eating mermaids are never a good thing in any story.
At this moment, Su Yan felt a pain on her cheek and snapped back to reality.
She discovered Donna was pinching her cheek, only slightly forceful, not really painful.
He was wearing a light smile, gazing at Su Yan who had finally come back to her senses.
"What are you thinking about that you're so engrossed?"
Su Yan looked at him, then realized with shock,
"How did you get out of bed?"
As she spoke, she stood up to let him sit down.
Regarding the pain that one must endure when mermaid tails transform into human legs, Su Yan had learned all about it.
So much so that, for the past ten days, she had seldom let Donna get out of bed and move around.
Donna reached out, pulled Su Yan towards him, and cradled her on his lap,
His smile was as gentle as the spring breeze, blissfully light.
"I'm fine now."
