Chapter 59 The Line of Destiny

Listening to Shirahoshi's crying, Mrs. Shirley pursed her lips.

The last time I saw her, she was only six years old and only about two meters taller than me.

Did this kid spend five whole years alone in the hard-shell tower?

The more she thought about it, the sadder she felt about Shirahoshi's fate, so Mrs. Shirley tried to hold Shirahoshi's tail, stroking it and comforting him.

"Don't cry, it's all in the past. Come, follow me into the store, I'll make you some coffee."

After the words fell, Madam Xia Li looked at Gao Wen and asked softly.

"Gao Wensheng, let's go to the store. Bai Xing is your fiancée, but she cried like this in public. You don't feel any pressure..."

"Cough cough!"

Gao Wen coughed twice and quickly led the team forward.

At this point, the group walked into the mermaid cafe, and as soon as Shirahoshi walked into the store, hundreds of mermaids immediately came towards him.

The mermaids surrounded Bai Xing, some of them floated above Bai Xing's head and combed her hair.

Some of them floated behind Bai Xing, took over Mrs. Xia Li's work, and stroked Bai Xing's big tail.

Others came close to Bai Xing's face, gently kneading her cheeks and comforting her not to continue crying.

Mrs. Xia Li let go of Bai Xing and patted the girl's slender waist, speaking softly.

"Hurry up and sit down, you are a princess, and it's not like you to cry like this.

Think about Queen Otohime, how strong she was, and remember to learn from your mother."

"Wow, wow, eh?"

Bai Xing was stunned for a moment, and then immediately started crying even harder.

“Wow, when mommy got drunk before, she would cry in my arms. She cried so hard, wuwuwuwu!”

"Uh……"

Mrs. Shirley was speechless. Five years had passed, and it took her a while to remember.

Although Lady Otohime had a tenacious character, every time she encountered a setback, she would get drunk and cry loudly under the influence of alcohol.

This matter is no secret throughout the entire Fishman Island. Which resident of Fishman Island has not heard the crying of Lady Otohime?

So..., there seems to be something wrong with my example.

Seeing that Shirahoshi was crying harder and harder, Mrs. Shirley had no choice but to look at Gawain. Noticing Shirley's look, Gawain nodded and whispered:

"White Star!"

Hearing Gawain's voice, Bai Xing stopped crying immediately. She looked at Gawain sadly and asked hesitantly.

"Lord Gawain, you also hate people like me who cry a lot, right?"

"How could that be? What I want to say is that the crystal ball over there is so beautiful!"

"Hey?"

Hearing Gawain mention the crystal ball, Bai Xing looked over curiously. There was a huge shell placed near the bar in the Mermaid Cafe.

In the open shell lay a sparkling crystal ball.

Seeing this, Bai Xing wiped her tears and murmured softly.

"Isn't that Madam Shirley's divination crystal ball? I thought it was some novelty. Lord Gawain is just coaxing a child~!"

"I didn't comfort the child, I comforted you. No one would want you to cry all the time."

Gawain said, then waved to Lady Shirley.

"Mrs. Shirley, please bring us some snacks and coffee. By the way, I have something I want to talk to you about."

After he finished speaking, Gao Wen called Diyuan and Jinbei and found a seat next to Shirahoshi and sat down.

Seeing Gawain sitting next to her, Bai Xing curled up shyly, hugging her big tail with her arms, and looked at Gawain with narrowed eyes.

After watching for two seconds, Bai Xing suddenly became curious. She stretched out her right hand and gently stroked Gao Wen's cheek with her soft fingertips.

"Master Gawain, I'm so confused. Why do you seem to be smiling all the time, but I don't think you are happy?"

Having said that, Bai Xing couldn't help but poke Gao Wen's face with his fingertips.

Gao Wen's head was poked crooked by the girl on the spot. As his head tilted, he rolled his eyes helplessly and kept reminding himself in his heart.

She is Poseidon, she is an important tool, and she is still a child!

But what's wrong? Why am I suddenly a little angry?

So Gao Wen took a deep breath and continued to persuade himself in his heart.

She is a mermaid, or a mermaid princess, she is super beautiful!

"call……"

Gawain let out the breath.

Not depressed anymore, not depressed at all.

It was only at this point that Jinbei, who was stunned with shock, finally reacted.

"Princess Shirahoshi, please pay attention to etiquette, courtesy...!"

Before Jinbei could finish his words, Mrs. Shirley came over with coffee and casually handed the cup to Diyuan.

Then she came to Jinbei and persuaded him with an auntie smile on her face.

"Okay, Jinbei, what etiquette? I just saw the intimate interaction between a young girl and a young boy. How romantic.

What flavor of coffee does Gao Wensheng like? Do you want milk cap? The milk is squeezed by the beautiful mermaid in our store!"

"puff!"

The moment Xia Li finished speaking, Di Yuan beside her suddenly spat out the coffee in her mouth, and the white mark of milk cap was clearly visible on her lips.

Seeing this, Mrs. Xia Li twisted her waist, and with a swing of her royal blue tail, she came to the side of the mansion.

After reaching out to wipe the milk stains from Di Yuan's mouth, Mrs. Xia Li smiled.

"It's sea beast milk that they squeezed themselves. Miss Gion's reaction is too exaggerated. Even if it's mermaid milk, we all drank it when we were young."

"Ahem, it's just hot, hehe..."

Gion pursed her lips, then turned to look at the window. For a moment, she didn't dare to look back at Gao Wen's expression.

Of course Gao Wen would not laugh at Gion's overreaction. He looked around and casually said to Madam Shirley.

"Okay, ma'am, stop teasing my chief guard and give me a cup of the best coffee you sell in your store. Thank you for your hard work.

But before the coffee comes, how about we talk business first? "

"Of course, everything is up to you, Gao Wensheng."

Charlie smiled and nodded, then waved back.

"Little Kemi, give me some more Qingzao coffee. Little White Star used to like this flavor the most."

"Yes, Mrs. Shirley."

At the bar in the distance, the little mermaid girl with short green hair waved her hand generously, then quickly got ready.

While the coffee was being prepared, Mrs. Xia Li sat down next to Di Yuan, with her hands on the table, and asked Gawain with a smile.

"So, let's get down to business. What do you want to divine, my Lord?"

"I'm afraid you've already divined what I want, Charlie."

Gawain shook his head and tapped the table lightly with his index finger.

"You can tell me the results of your divination at any time, but before that, I would like to ask you for your opinion on what happened last night."

"My point of view?"

Charlie pursed her lips and continued to smile.

"I don't have any opinion. Gao Wensheng is very gentle. Princess Shirahoshi will be very happy in the future, right?"

"Well, Mrs. Shirley, I don't care about those things, happiness or anything like that, yeah~!"

Bai Xing was so embarrassed by Xia Li that she moved her body and rushed to other booths in the distance.

Holding the big tail around the booth, Bai Xing arched her slender white waist and hid her flushed face behind the seat.

Seeing this, Gawain smiled with interest. Although this world was full of various sufferings, the people here were much more interesting than before he traveled through time.

But being interesting is not a power worth relying on, so after Gawain finished laughing, he immediately continued to ask Charlie.

“You know that’s not what I’m asking, Mrs. Shirley.

You should be able to understand that my actions last night unilaterally determined the future fate of Fishman Island.

After I said those words, Fishman Island would inevitably establish the close connection between fishmen, humans and the land that Otohime dreamed of.

I'm sure you've already divined this matter countless times last night.

Now can you tell me how you plan to see the future I bring to Fishman Island?

Especially when combined with your divination results?

Or to put it more bluntly, in your divination, what did you see me bring to Fishman Island?

Have you seen me in your divination?

After he finished speaking, although Gao Wen still had a deep smile on his face, he felt a rare bit of nervousness in his heart.

He wanted to know what would happen if he, who had never lived in the pirate world before, was suddenly inserted into the pirate world.

Can a fortune teller like Xia Li see herself in the lines of fate?

Chapter 60 She Saw...

"Gao Wensheng, you must be joking. How come I can't see you?"

Looking at the serious Gawain, Lady Shirley smiled humbly and continued.

“As you said, I did divination on you not only when you announced at the banquet that you would marry our lovely Shirahoshi.

In fact, I had already made a divination when you sent your men to Fishman Island to deliver the news of your arrival.

When I received your message, when you personally came to Fishman Island, and last night, I performed divination on you for the third time in total.

I saw your face in all three divinations, sir!"

When Mrs. Shirley said this, she suddenly slid down from her seat, and fell to the ground at Gawain's feet, with her head pressed heavily to the ground, and saluted solemnly.

"In these three divinations, I saw different visions of you. I am willing to tell you everything in the divinations. I only ask you to fulfill one wish of mine!"

"Oh?"

Gawain tilted his head and felt completely relieved. Since he had truly joined the destiny of the current world, he didn't need to worry about many things!

After putting his worries aside, Gawain spoke softly.

“Mrs. Shirley, I never make promises lightly, and whatever I promise, I will do my best to fulfill.

The weight of a promise cannot be expressed in a few words. Since you want me to fulfill your wish, please tell me the content of your wish first!"

"it is good!"

Lady Shirley narrowed her eyes in appreciation, then she raised her head to look at Gawain and whispered.

"Please forgive my brother, sir. Although he is guilty, please spare his life and allow him to live out the rest of his life in Push City!"

"So, in the three times you divined for me, you saw your brother die at my hands?"

Gawain nodded and said, then he looked towards Gion.

"Gion, remind me when you see Madam Xia Li's brother next time."

"I see!"

Gion nodded and then spoke to Madam Shirley.
