Good pregnancy in the animal world: the soft and tender rabbit is spoiled by the big guys

Chapter 140: Mermaid's Tears (Part )
The figure at the seaside moved slightly. After hearing Yu Zhizhi's voice, You Sen turned around. His ice-blue eyes in the darkness were as calm as a deep pool.

Yu Zhizhi's footsteps were sometimes deep and sometimes shallow as she waded across the beach and came to the boy.

She breathed a sigh of relief: "You are here, looking at the sea."

It's good that he's here.

He did not disappear suddenly. He was just a person, quietly gazing at the coastline.

No one knows what the mermaid is thinking.

Yusen looked at her in silence.

[…Have you made your choice? ]

She seemed to be worried these days. Everyone kept silent about it and no one mentioned the future.

Yu Zhizhi turned sideways and looked at Louis.

The young man handed her the bamboo basket in his hand, smiled, and stepped back a few steps, leaving this brief time of solitude to them.

Yu Zhizhi held a bamboo basket, her eyes flickering slightly in the night.

"I...I gave birth to a baby."

She was still a little shy, so she lifted the scarf covering the bamboo basket and showed Yousen the ice-blue egg.

Yousen stared at the bamboo basket in a daze, his heart beating so strongly that it was deafening.

In the distance, someone lit the fireworks.

The fireworks bloomed brilliantly in the night sky and fell like stars. Their figures also flickered in the reflection of the fireworks.

These days, he has thought a lot...

Maybe the little rabbit has been deceiving himself all along.

She didn't want the mermaid baby at all.

Even the pregnancy was just a joke on him...

Or maybe, all she wanted was the mermaid baby. After she got pregnant, she no longer needed him.

Yousen saw the aqua blue egg in the bamboo basket. His fingers trembled slightly as he gently touched the surface of the eggshell, which felt cool.

"……mine?"

His voice was slightly hoarse, "Ours?"

When the little rabbit gave birth to her cubs, the first thing she did was to go to the beach to find him.

Could it be——

A possibility suddenly popped up in Yousen's mind. He quickly raised his head and stared into Yu Zhizhi's eyes, where the light of hope was jumping.

His heart almost jumped out of his throat.

"Have you made your decision? Do you want to...come with me?"

Yu Zhizhi was stunned. She didn't dare to look at the mermaid's fiery gaze. She turned her head away, and her nose felt sore.

The conversation with Master Yuesheng that night has been echoing in my ears.

She didn't dare gamble with Yousen's life.

She was afraid that the scenes in her nightmare would come true.

Seeing the little rabbit avoiding his gaze, the light that had just ignited in Yousen's eyes gradually went out.

Bitterness spread in his heart, the sea breeze blew up the strands of hair on his forehead, and he grabbed the little female's wrist, "...are you threatened?"

We clearly agreed to go together, why are you going back on your word?

Were you coerced?
Murderous intent suddenly rose in Yousen's eyes.

Yu Zhizhi was shocked and looked at him quickly, "No, no..."

The bloody ocean flashed back in my mind.

Yu Zhizhi was afraid that Yousen would act drastically in the heat of the moment.

In the Moonrise Empire, they already hated mermaids—

Because of the little princess.

Yu Zhizhi didn't want to put him in danger.

She took a deep breath. "No one is threatening me."

"..."

The last glimmer of hope was shattered.

You Sen's face was pale, his thin lips were tightly pursed, and he held her wrist with slight force until Yu Zhizhi's eyes turned red due to pain, and then he let go.

At that moment, all the strength in his body seemed to be drained away.

She is coming.

A mermaid baby was sent.

Then what……?
Yusen realized that she had come to say goodbye.

He was like a withered tree, standing quietly in the wind, his eyes dull and lifeless.

Yu Zhizhi's throat was dry. She hugged the bamboo basket tightly, resisting the urge to cry, and murmured, "I... I can't leave with you..." The girl's voice drifted in the sea breeze, becoming unclear.

Yusen seemed to hear nothing.

He lowered his eyes and did not move for a long while.

...Ah, it's a breakup.

This is why she came here.

Yousen thought of the locker room that night. He was outside the door and heard the little female's moans, soft and delicate.

and so……

Is this her decision?

At the last minute, Duke Platinum was chosen.

A self-deprecating smile appeared on Yousen's face, like a dying fish stranded on the beach in urgent need of oxygen. He trembled with each word: "I'll ask you one last time."

Yu Zhizhi felt his heavy gaze and her shoulders trembled slightly.

"——Are you going to follow me or not?"

Hearing the mermaid's question, Yu Zhizhi's eyes became moist. She stuffed the bamboo basket into his arms, opened her mouth, but could not speak, and sounded like she was crying.

She shook her head slightly.

"Haha." Yousen laughed.

He took the bamboo basket, with a strange expression on his face, "I see. Thank you for coming all the way to see me off."

The tone has become extremely distant.

Like meeting for the first time.

He was also kept in a transparent water tank, surrounded by light blue water, like a beautiful painting.

Yu Zhizhi handed the mermaid baby to him.

She folded her hands in front of her, and at the last moment, she didn't dare to look up into his eyes, for fear that she would burst into tears.

"Sensen, have a safe journey." She bowed slightly to say farewell and gave him her most sincere blessings.

You must return safely to the deep sea.

Yousen said "hmm" lightly, holding the bamboo basket in one hand, looking at her indifferently. When he saw her turn around, his world collapsed at that moment.

again……

Abandoned.

In a place where Yu Zhizhi couldn't see, in the dark night, Yousen's eyes suddenly turned red.

Don't go...

Don't leave me...

If there is anything I did wrong, I will correct it...

I won't get angry easily anymore, okay?

Don't leave me...

With blurred vision, he watched the girl's back as she left. Tears welled up in his eyes, but he refused to cry, just like his straight back that would never bend.

At that moment, a thought flashed through his mind -

If I kneel down and beg her, will she soften her heart?

However, the pride of being a mermaid made him turn around, clutching the bamboo basket tightly. His trembling back was reflected in the moon on the sea. Dark clouds gradually obscured the moonlight. In the heavy, gloomy sea, Yousen stood on the beach with his shoulders trembling noticeably.

The boy's suppressed cry was drowned out by the sea breeze...

……

Yu Zhizhi walked along the beach towards the mansion. When she was about to walk out of the sticky and wet area, she stumbled and fell to the ground.

The tears that had been welling up in her eyes suddenly burst out. She pressed her hands into the sand, which was sticky, and she raised the back of her hands to wipe them.

Louis watched silently.

He squatted down and handed her a clean handkerchief.

Yu Zhizhi held the handkerchief and wiped away her tears. She stood up, not daring to look back, even though she was already very far away from the sea.

She walked back to the mansion crying.

"Louis..." Passing by the garden, she stopped and asked in a trembling voice: "Will they regret it?"

"No." Louis said firmly. He knew that the little rabbit needed a definite answer the most. "Li Yuan always keeps his word. He will definitely do what he promised."

"Don't worry, get some good sleep. By tomorrow, Yousen will have left the Moonrise Empire."

"The mermaid has returned to the sea, and he has few natural enemies."

Yu Zhizhi stood in the garden, and couldn't stop crying when she thought of Yousen's hurt expression. Her two rabbit ears drooped, and her shoulders trembled slightly, "I'm not good... I'm not good..."
