After coming ashore, the little mermaid was pampered by his five fathers.

Lu Lingzhou met with the Mermaid King, but no one knows what they said. All that is known is that Lu Lingzhou looked very unwell, extremely unwell.

These past few days, they have returned to Lu Garden and are living a quiet and happy life as usual.

However, the unusual movements on the seabed became more and more frequent, and even if they tried to ignore them, they could not turn a blind eye.

Time passed slowly, and Lu Lingzhou looked at the little guy running on the grass with tenderness in his eyes.

His precious little one should have grown up carefree, but now... how could he bear to part with him?

I'm so reluctant to part with it.

"Guoguo, Guoguo is flying!"

Mu Chen was flying a kite; it was a cute little fish, soaring freely in the sky.

"Little one, do you want to give it a try?"

"want."

Xiao Ranran ran over, took the kite string from Muchen, and then, with his help, pulled the kite.

"Yes, that's it, you're so smart."

Xiao Ranran was all smiles, in a very good mood.

In the evening, the family sat down together for dinner, and the atmosphere was quite pleasant, even though tomorrow was the day Murui had mentioned.

After dinner, we sat together watching TV. When we saw a variety show, we couldn't stop laughing.

Murui held the little baby in her arms, holding his tiny hand.

"Mu Rui, why haven't I heard anything about your variety show?" Yue Liming asked, still waiting for the next episode.

It's been a long time since the last recording.

Murui lowered his eyes and said, "I'm withdrawing."

He just wanted to be with Ranran, but the first recording turned out to be with Wang Xu, who seemed to have a mental illness, so he didn't really want to go anymore.

"If you've withdrawn, that's fine. It's okay if you don't go. It'll save those people from spreading rumors."

This way I can spend time with Ranran.

Xiao Ranran held the apple and ate it in small bites. Although she didn't understand the funny parts of the variety show, she stayed with them, laughed with them, and ate fruit with them.

"Dad, time for bed."

Goodnight.

Goodnight, Daddy's baby.

Everyone said goodnight to Xiao Ranran before going to sleep.

Today is Saturday, and according to the schedule, it's time for Xiao Ranran to sleep by himself. This is also a way to cultivate his habit of sleeping independently.

But these past few days, they haven't followed the rules. It's rock-paper-scissors, and whoever wins has to pay.

"Let's go, go to bed with Daddy."

Yue Liming carried Xiao Ranran back to his room, gave the little guy a bath, and tucked him into bed.

The shower gel smells like milk, and after the little one went to sleep, the blankets smelled milky too.

Yue Liming turned and hugged him, "Sweetheart, go to sleep."

"Uh-huh."

Little Ranran snuggled into Yue Liming's arms, tugged at his clothes, and started to sleep, her little legs draped over Yue Liming.

After the lights were turned off, the room fell silent.

But in the middle of the night, Xiao Ranran woke up. He turned to look out the window, then at the sleeping Yue Liming, pursed his lips, and let go of his clothes.

"Daddy protects Ranran, Ranran protects Daddy, and protects Grandpa."

After whispering to herself, Xiao Ranran crawled out of bed and slowly got out of bed.

Yue Liming naturally sensed the commotion and groggily got up. "Xiao Bao, where are you going?"

Little Ranran was almost startled, and stammered, "Go, pee."

"Okay, slow down, Dad will wait for you."

Yue Li lay back down, closed her eyes, and waited for the little one to return.

"……good."

Xiao Ranran slowly walked outside, but as soon as she went out, she saw Muchen.

"Pot, drink some water." The little guy is so well-behaved, blinking his big eyes.

"Water? Xiao Bao, do you want some water?" Yue Liming sat up when he heard the voice.

"Uncle Yue, I'm going to get some water too. I'll take Zai Zai with me."

It was Mu Chen's voice.

Yue Liming felt relieved.

"Okay, drink your water and come back quickly."

"it is good."

Mu Chen carried Xiao Ranran downstairs and went to the kitchen to get him some warm water.

"Where are we going?"

Little Ranran gulped down her water, looking sincerely at Muchen, "No, no, I'm just drinking water."

Mu Chen sighed, "Little one, you can fool others, but you can't fool me."

He could sense that Xiao Ranran was uneasy; otherwise, she wouldn't have been waiting at the door.

"Does the little one want to go to the beach?"

Caught red-handed, Xiao Ranran hugged the water bottle and lowered her head. "Feng Susu said that only Ranran can deal with the monster."

He knows everything.

He's not stupid.

"Daddy protected Ranran and disappeared. This time, Ranran will protect Daddy."

His father, whom he had gone to great lengths to find, must not disappear again.

Mu Chen opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything.

The little one knows everything, and even understands it very well.

But he didn't understand why a child should be sent.

"Sweetie, let's not go, okay?"

Be selfish, I don't care anymore.

Little Ranran shook her head: "I'll die. I won't let Daddy die. Ranran will do it herself."

Mu Chen rested her head on Xiao Ranran's body, closed her eyes, and tears streamed down her face.

He watched the children he had raised grow up.

"My little one..."

"Then, I'll stay with you."

Since he's going, I'll go with him.

"No……"

Mu Chen pressed his forehead against his, saying each word clearly, "Mu Chen is the guard of the little prince of the merman clan, so naturally he will go wherever the little prince goes."

"Let's go, I'll stay with the baby."

He's not very useful; at least he can block one attack.

Mu Chen left Lu Garden with Xiao Ranran.

Standing at the door, the two turned to look at Lu Garden, the place where they had lived for several months, their second home.

Of course, I don't want my home to be destroyed.

Just as I was about to leave, I noticed two people coming out.

Mu Qing and Mu Lan bowed, "Your subordinate is willing to go with the little prince, even unto death."

Xiao Ranran opened her mouth and shook her head, "You guys aren't going, I'll go."

"You, protect Dad."

Seeing that Xiao Ranran was unwilling, Mu Qing and Mu Lan subconsciously turned their gaze to Mu Chen.

Mu Chen agreed.

"You guys stay here and protect Uncle Lu and the others. Ranran is worried about them if you stay with them."

With Mu Qingmu Lan protecting him, Zai Zai will feel at ease.

"Let's go." Mu Chen carried Xiao Ranran to the beach.

At their speed, they can arrive before dawn.

Mu Qing and Mu Lan watched them leave, but could only give up.

They guarded the vast garden behind them.

At the seaside, waves rolled, and more and more aquatic creatures emerged from the water.

The surrounding people were also evacuated in an emergency, and the town was deserted.

Drones and helicopters fly in the air, patrolling the sea.

"Everything is normal, return to work." The helicopter is preparing to return to its original position to allow the next group of people to arrive.

"Wait! What's that?!"

The passenger in the front seat looked down at the water and cried out in terror.

The driver looked over, his eyes widened, and he picked up the pager.

"Something's wrong! Something's wrong!"

A huge creature emerged from the water, extended its tentacles, grabbed the helicopter, and pulled hard, causing the helicopter to fall into the water.

The observers on the shore were dumbfounded; the tentacles were enormous, each as thick as a ten-year-old tree trunk.

"Monster, monster!"

"Alert! Alert!"

"Prepare the shells!"
