Young Master He's mermaid baby is super sweet

He Shizhou had only asked casually, but the rather straightforward answer seemed to have stirred something in his heart.

He Shizhou stared blankly at the little guy for a moment, trying to see something else in his eyes, but they were too clean and pure, containing only him.

He Shizhou suddenly remembered everything that had just happened at home. If he were to marry a woman, this little mermaid might not be so bad.

He Shizhou admitted that he had thought more than once that marrying this little mermaid might not be a bad idea, but when he truly examined himself, he knew that he liked men. He was afraid that one day he would find that he could not accept women, which would hurt the innocence in those eyes.

"He Shizhou, Youyou likes you." After Luo You finished speaking, she looked at him for a long time without saying anything, then leaned over and said it again seriously.

He wasn't joking; he genuinely liked He Shizhou, and he wasn't lying.

He Shizhou chuckled softly, nodded slightly, and then raised his other hand to show him what he was holding.

"So, do you like me more, or do you like this cake more?"

"Wow!" Luo You's eyes lit up when she saw the cake. She stuck out a small tip of her pink tongue, licked her lips, and then firmly turned her gaze back to He Shizhou's face. "I like He Shizhou a little more."

"Don't you like the cake?"

"I like it." Luo You nodded immediately, then watched as He Shizhou placed the cake on the table and opened it.

He Linyan brought quite a few cakes, but because they were hastily packed, there weren't any extra plates.

He Shizhou stood up, with the little tail clinging to his clothes behind him, went to the kitchen to get a knife, fork, and plate, and returned to the table. He cut a piece and handed it to the little mermaid.

The little mermaid took it, and then, when He Shizhou sat back on the sofa, she pulled his arm and sat in his lap.

Luo You ate very quietly, holding the plate in one hand and eating little by little with a small fork. Every now and then, he would pick up a bit and feed it to He Shizhou.

He Shizhou was in a bad mood all night and didn't eat much, just eating bite by bite.

He didn't usually eat sweets, but now he thinks they might be pretty good.

The cake was quite large, and Luo You ate very little before feeling full. He didn't eat the rest, but fed it to He Shizhou with a fork. Before they knew it, He Shizhou had finished the whole large piece of cake he had brought back.

When He Shizhou realized what was happening, his mouth was filled with a sweet taste that seemed to have spread all the way to his heart.

The little guy in front of me had the last bite of cake on his fork, which was being brought to his lips.

"He Shizhou, eat." The little guy urged him when he didn't open his mouth.

He Shizhou chuckled and shook his head.

"You eat it."

The little guy obediently ate the last bite and licked his lips contentedly.

He Shizhou looked at him, thinking of how he looked when he left, and then used his thumb to wipe away the little bit of cream left on the corner of his lips.

"Youyou, are you angry that I'm going out tonight?"

Luo You looked at him and shook his head without hesitation.

"Youyou, don't be angry with He Shizhou." In his heart, He Shizhou was the best, so how could he be angry?

"Never get angry?" He Shizhou continued to ask.

He seems to always make a lot of people angry.

Luo You thought about it seriously this time, then lowered his head and played with He Shizhou's hands in his own, whispering.

"Yes, if Youyou gets angry, He Shizhou will have to coax her. He can coax her and she'll be fine. Youyou is easy to coax."

He Shizhou nodded, then tentatively hugged the person in his arms tighter.

This was the first time he had ever truly held someone in his arms, his entire body filled with that person's presence, his nose filled with their scent.

He Shizhou disliked others getting close, and he especially disliked women getting close, but this little mermaid didn't seem to have that feeling. He Shizhou didn't even mind the occasional fishy smell on her.

"Okay." He Shizhou chuckled briefly. "Youyou, I'll take you shopping for clothes tomorrow. Let's go out and have some fun, instead of always staying at home."

He Shizhou felt that the little guy in his arms was too afraid of people. If this continued, he was afraid that the little guy would become more and more dependent on him and more and more withdrawn.

"Is He Shizhou going too?" Luo You asked, looking up.

After He Shizhou nodded, his eyes lit up, and then he nodded vigorously.

He'd go anywhere as long as he was with He Shizhou.

"Okay, it's settled then. You need to brush your teeth, otherwise you'll get cavities from eating cake."

He Shizhou picked the person up from the sofa and carried them into the bathroom.

The person in his arms was startled. After a moment of hesitation, they struggled a few times, slid off He Shizhou's arms, and darted into the bathroom, closing the door from the inside.

Ever since the cleaning lady scared him last time, He Shizhou taught him how to close the door from the inside, so this time He Shizhou couldn't open the door after it was closed.

He Shizhou stood outside, feeling utterly helpless. He had only recently learned that the little mermaid was afraid of brushing her teeth.

He didn't have much experience taking care of children before, so he let the little guy brush his teeth by himself. But later he discovered that the little guy would swallow the foam and water along with his teeth after brushing, and he would always have a bitter face and stick out his tongue after swallowing.

She also complained to him that she didn't like brushing her teeth because the water tasted terrible.

He Shizhou had taught him a few times that he should spit out the water after rinsing his mouth, but he always swallowed it with a "gulp". Over time, the little guy started to be afraid of brushing his teeth.

He Shizhou called out a few more times from outside, and a soft, gentle voice came from behind the door.

"Youyou is asleep."

He Shizhou chuckled a few times and could only return to his room.

Having already been labeled as someone who wasn't doing his job properly, He Shizhou simply skipped work the next day and didn't go to the company. Instead, he waited for the little guy to wake up, and after the two of them had breakfast, he drove him to the mall.

It was the same place as last time. The little guy had a good memory; as soon as he entered, his eyes glanced at the milk tea shop by the door, and then he pitifully tugged at He Shizhou's clothes.

"He Shizhou, milk tea, ice cream, buy them."

He Shizhou glanced in the direction of the milk tea shop, then shook his head slightly.

"You just recovered from the stomachache you had last time, so you're not allowed to eat anymore."

Luo You blinked, looking somewhat disappointed, but still obediently nodded, then whispered "hug" in a listless manner.

Seeing him like this, He Shizhou felt a little sorry for him and sighed softly.

"You can only buy one cup of hot milk tea, but on the condition that you promise me you won't be afraid of people and won't run away or hide."

He Shizhou originally brought him out to meet more people, but if the little guy runs away halfway through, it will probably turn into another search for him.

Luo You weighed the options in his mind. Milk tea seemed somewhat important, but he was still afraid of people.

"So... should He Shizhou hold hands?"

"I'll hold your hand and lead you away."

With He Shizhou leading the way, he felt he could manage, so he nodded in agreement and received a cup of milk tea in return.
