Young Master He's mermaid baby is super sweet

Since it was a rare opportunity to visit the countryside, He Shizhou took Luo You for a stroll. It was different from the city; there were many more trees and grass along the roadside, and Luo You even saw fish in the river.

Luo You, his face beaming with delight, stepped forward and lay down on the bank to watch the fish.

Afraid that he would lie down and drink another sip of water, He Shizhou quickly pulled him up and made him watch from a distance.

Several old men were fishing by the river. Luo You ran over and looked into their buckets. The fish were swimming inside, and as soon as they saw Luo You, they were so frightened that they immediately hid at the bottom of the water.

Luo You reached out his hand, and the fish in the water all scurried away.

Perhaps because Luo You was also a fish, the fish in the water immediately swam away as soon as he came over. The two of them played by the river for a while, but none of the old men caught a single fish.

Finally, the old man gave Luo You two fish, placed them in a lotus leaf for him to hold, and then politely invited the two of them to leave.

He Shizhou had originally planned to take Luo You away, so he didn't linger. Luo You was happy and thanked them before happily carrying the fish home.

"He Shizhou, Grandpa is so kind, giving me Youyou fish." Luo You said to He Shizhou, showing him her fish with some pride.

He Shizhou smiled helplessly as he saw the two fish struggling incessantly in the lotus leaf.

"Baby, when you were in the water, didn't the fish dare to come near you?" He Shizhou asked curiously.

Luo You thought for a moment and shook his head: "They are all not as big as Youyou, Youyou's tail is thick."

As she spoke, Luo You kicked her thin little legs, as if showing He Shizhou her tail.

Startled, He Shizhou immediately went over to support him and patted his head with a hint of helplessness.

"Baby, be good, you're carrying a baby in your belly, you can't fall."

Luo You didn't mind and snuggled into He Shizhou's arms.

"With He Shizhou here, Youyou has nothing to fear."

He Shizhou could only manage a helpless smile as he slowly helped him back.

After they got back, He Shizhou found him a transparent glass bottle to use as a fish tank and told him to put the fish in it.

Luo You excitedly carried the fish tank around, looking for food for the fish.

He Shizhou watched, a smile unconsciously creeping onto his lips. If he had known the little guy was so easily satisfied, he would have kept a pond full of fish at home, so the little guy wouldn't be bored when he was home alone.

When Grandpa Su returned from outside at noon, He Shizhou and Luo You had already almost finished preparing lunch in the kitchen. He went to the kitchen door and saw the two of them chatting and laughing as they busied themselves, looking quite harmonious.

Luo You was carrying the dishes and was about to put them out when she turned around and saw him. She smiled sweetly at him and called out, "Grandpa."

Grandpa Su nodded and took the things from his hands.

"Give it to me, don't run away."

Luo You obediently handed it to him, then went to work with He Shizhou.

Grandpa Su had his own yard where he grew a lot of vegetables. He Shizhou simply picked some and cooked a few home-style dishes. The three of them sat together and ate.

After lunch, Luo You, who had been playing around all morning, started to feel sleepy.

With Grandpa Su present, he didn't dare to be too presumptuous. He didn't climb on He Shizhou's body, but just listlessly leaned on He Shizhou's shoulder and yawned.

He Shizhou saw this, picked him up, greeted Grandpa Su, and took him into the room for a nap.

Luo You already had a habit of taking a nap in the afternoon, and he was also a bit tired after running around all morning.

He Shizhou stayed with Luo You in bed for a while before he drifted off to sleep.

He Shizhou got up, covered Luo You with a blanket, and then left the room. Old Master Su was still sitting at the table, as if he was waiting for him.

He Shizhou walked over and sat down, poured him some tea, and pushed it towards him.

"Grandpa, what are you thinking about?"

Grandpa Su stirred, picked up his teacup, took a sip, sighed, and then smiled.

"Xiao Zhou has grown up a lot. He can take care of people now. He's much better than before."

He Shizhou was taken aback, and a smile appeared on his face.

"I can't not take care of her. Youyou is like a little child. I take care of her in every way. I'm afraid I won't take care of her properly. How can things work if I don't take good care of her?"

Grandpa Su smiled with some relief. The two sat together, and after a while, Grandpa Su spoke first again.

"Shizhou, you're not young anymore. It's time to take over the company's affairs. We can't always leave it to outsiders. You're grown up now. Your grandfather doesn't expect you to take over immediately, but you should at least start getting involved in the company's affairs. When you take over, it won't be too difficult for you to adapt." Grandpa Su said earnestly.

He Shizhou stared at him for a long time without saying a word.

The Su family only had one daughter, and after she married into the He family, he became their only child. Over the years, they had simply found someone to manage the company for them. He Shizhou had long known that these burdens would eventually fall on his shoulders.

This is also part of the reason why He Shizhou didn't want to take over the He Group; he didn't have that much energy.

He Shizhou turned his head to look at the old man in front of him. It had only been about half a year since he last saw him, but he felt that the old man's hair had turned whiter and his back had become more hunched. The marks left by the years on him were becoming more and more obvious.

"Grandpa..." He Shizhou called out, but finally nodded. He added, "I will try to get involved in company matters, but Youyou is newly pregnant and I have to take care of him, so we have to take it slowly."

Grandpa Su nodded, then paused, looking at He Shizhou with disbelief.

"You mean little Youyou... is pregnant? Isn't he a man?"

"Grandpa, I don't know how to explain it to you, but Youyou's identity is a bit special. She can indeed get pregnant, and she is pregnant now."

It took Grandpa Su a long time to come to his senses. He nodded, his eyes reddening.

"Good, good, good. Grandpa never thought he would see Xiao Zhou's child in his lifetime."

He Shizhou could only laugh for a moment, not knowing how to answer, because before the little one got pregnant, even he had never thought that he would have a child in the future, but now he really did.

"Not long before I came, I went for a prenatal checkup with Youyou. The baby is over three months old, and the doctor said it's developing well and is very healthy," He Shizhou said in a low voice, but was hit on the head after he finished speaking.

Grandpa Su's voice carried a hint of anger.

"You know she's pregnant, and you just took him to the kitchen. The smell of cooking oil was so strong there. What if he got sick from the fumes? You have no sense of propriety."

He Shizhou felt a little helpless. Why was he always the one being bullied now that the little one was pregnant?

So in the evening, Luo You and Grandpa Su played chess in the room, while He Shizhou quietly cooked alone in the kitchen.

He dared not order either the old man or the young man around, so he had to do it all himself.

*

He Shizhou and Luo You stayed with the old man for more than half a month. They even celebrated his birthday. They only prepared to leave when Luo You was about to have her prenatal checkup.

On the morning of his departure, Luo You was still a little reluctant. Standing at the door, he looked at Grandpa Su with tears in his eyes.

"Grandpa, why don't you go with Youyou? Youyou will miss you." Luo You ran over and hugged the old man.

Grandpa Su was also a little reluctant, but he still sighed and patted him on the back.

"Grandpa is used to living here, so he won't go back with you. He'll come over when the baby is about to be born and won't come back. He'll take care of the baby for you for a few years."

Luo You glanced at He Shizhou several more times, and seeing that He Shizhou didn't insist on his grandfather going back, he nodded in agreement, his eyes reddening.

"Grandpa, the baby will be born soon. Grandpa will have to go then. Youyou hasn't learned to play chess yet."

"Okay, okay, I'll definitely go. Let's go quickly. The road is difficult to travel, so please slow down and don't rush."

He Shizhou agreed, said goodbye to Grandpa Su, and then got into the car with the reluctant Luo You.

As the car drove further and further away, Luo You, peering through the car window, watched as the old man, who had been holding back for so long, finally let the little pearl fall.

He said this while crying, his voice trembling with sobs.

"He Shizhou, why isn't Grandpa coming with us? Youyou wants to go back with Grandpa."

He Shizhou had wanted his grandfather to go back with him many times, but his grandfather refused and stayed here.

"Youyou, this is where Grandma used to live. Grandpa is reluctant to leave, so let him stay here. In a few months, when the baby in your belly is bigger, I will come to pick him up."

Luo You thought for a while, then obediently nodded, but still sat listlessly in his seat with red eyes, remaining silent for a long time.

He Shizhou was helpless and didn't know how to persuade him, so he could only remain silent.

It was past noon when the two returned to He Shizhou's seaside villa.

There was nothing to eat at home, so He Shizhou ordered takeout and then sat on the sofa with Luo You to wait.

Luo You ran into the living room and peered into the large fish tank. He had been in that tank for several days.

Thinking back to the scene when I first met He Shizhou, it feels like a long time has passed.

Seeing him staring blankly at the fish tank, He Shizhou smiled and walked over.

"Baby, do you remember that big seashell? That's where I found you. The seashell is still there." He Shizhou smiled.

He bought the pearls only to cover his tracks, but he never expected that 80 million would buy him such a treasure.

Luo You turned to look at He Shizhou, smiled at him, and threw herself into his arms.

"He Shizhou is the mate that Youyou chose for herself. He Shizhou is good-looking, and the little mermaid baby he gave birth to is also good-looking."

He Shizhou was stunned. He didn't expect that the little guy would take a liking to him because of his face. Was this little mermaid a looks-obsessed person?

The two waited on the sofa for a while when the doorbell rang. The takeout they ordered had arrived. He Shizhou went to open the door and took the steak.

The delivery guy at the door was startled when he saw him and instinctively asked, "Are you ordering anything else?"

He Shizhou glanced at the steaks and thought five steaks should be enough, so he shook his head.

The delivery driver breathed a sigh of relief and quickly turned and ran away.

He would never forget the last time, also here, when he delivered steaks four times in one night, and there was crying coming from the villa...
