Transmigrated to Another World and Doted on by Everyone!-Chapter 225: Extra: Little Mermaid (Part 3)

Rong Xingyu looked at Ding Yixin’s gentle expression in front of him and found that the more he looked, the more he liked him.

He excitedly grabbed Ding Yixin’s hand and asked, "Then in that case, I can be considered to have saved you too. Will you marry me?"

Ding Yixin looked at the serious faced young man in front of him with a deep and unreadable glint flashing through his eyes.

The young man was sitting on the deck, his entire body wrapped in nothing but Ding Yixin’s suit jacket with no other covering whatsoever.

Fortunately, compared to the young man’s slender build, Ding Yixin’s jacket was fairly loose enough to cover the most critical areas.

But when one’s gaze gradually drifted downward, it was still impossible not to notice that both of his legs were completely bare and exposed.

How should one describe such a pair of legs?

It’s long and well proportioned, like priceless treasures works of art that was carved from jade by a master craftsman who had poured his entire life’s devotion into them, gleaming with a pearly luster under the moonlight.

Ding Yixin’s gaze lingered on the young man’s legs for a brief moment seemingly unintentionally.

A smile suddenly appeared on his face.

Ding Yixin crouched down and asked the naïve little mermaid in a low voice, "Little one, do you know what marriage means?"

The young man tilted his head, his hands unconsciously twisting together.

"I know," the young man blinked his eyes. "The sea... my grandpa told me all about it. If you like someone, you have to marry them, and then we’ll be together forever!"

Looking at the innocent and guileless expression on the young man’s face, Ding Yixin: "..."

What kind of elder taught a child like this?

Wasn’t that outright misleading?

And from the look in the young man’s eyes, it was clear that the "liking" he spoke of was extremely pure, containing no desire at all.

It was clear and clean, like seawater.

If the person the young man had met hadn’t been him...

For some reason, at the thought that the young man might also smile like this at someone else and say things like liking them, a trace of irritation rose in Ding Yixin’s heart.

Unknown emotions churned in his eyes.

After a long moment, Ding Yixin fixed his gaze on the young man and extended his hand toward him.

"Alright, then. Do you want to come back with me?"

The little mermaid hadn’t received a response for so long and had thought that the man didn’t like him.

His mood inevitably sank.

Rong Xingyu lowered his head and let out a resentful little sigh.

In his heart, he thought: Grandpa Sea Turtle was right, humans were the hardest to deal with and love really was this difficult!

But just then, the little mermaid suddenly heard Ding Yixin asking whether he wanted to go back with him.

Did that mean he was willing to marry him?

Rong Xingyu abruptly lifted his head, his face breaking into a delighted smile.

His eyes seemed to grow even brighter, like dazzling stars in the night sky.

He eagerly placed his fair and smooth hand into Ding Yixin’s palm, nodding vigorously before Ding Yixin could even tighten his grip.

"Yes, yes!"

...

When General Ding returned from the sea in the middle of the night, he similarly did not alert anyone.

But this time, there was suddenly an exceptionally beautiful and unfamiliar young man by his side.

No one knew where the young man had come from, but General Ding’s indulgence toward him was something everyone could plainly see.

He was so cherished that he was afraid the boy would melt if held in his mouth, afraid he would fall if held in his hands.

Various factions were also secretly trying to gather information about the young man by General Ding’s side, eager to find out exactly what kind of relationship he had with the general.

Rong Xingyu was sprawled on the large bed in Ding Yixin’s bedroom with both feet kicked up high in the air, swaying slightly from time to time.

He was fully focused on swiping his fingertips across the phone screen. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Only the prompt sounds of "great," "excellent," and "bonus time" rang out one after another, and very quickly all the adorable sea creatures on the screen were completely cleared away.

The little mermaid’s lips curved up happily and there was a hint of pride on his face.

This game called "Triple Merge" was really quite easy!

Rong Xingyu had previously seen humans on land all holding a thin and square "little box" in their hands.

It wasn’t until he followed Ding Yixin to the general’s residence that Rong Xingyu learned that this "little box" was called a mobile phone.

And that mobile phones could be this fun!

In fact, it wasn’t just phones.

For a little mermaid who had never ventured so far from the sea everything he saw was novel and interesting.

Cars driving along the roads, towering buildings... all of it was scenery completely different from the underwater world.

The little mermaid was like a country bumpkin who had never seen the world before suddenly entering the city and being dazzled by its prosperity.

Seeing Rong Xingyu’s innocent and unworldly demeanor, a deep turbulent look surged in Ding Yixin’s eyes.

But he didn’t say anything.

He simply ordered everyone around him to keep their mouths shut and not to leak any information related to Rong Xingyu.

Because of that, the little mermaid’s life in the general’s residence was truly "luxurious" beyond measure.

However, the tall teenage boy standing in front of Rong Xingyu wore an expression of utter shock.

He stared at him with wide eye as if he had seen a ghost in broad daylight.

"Y-you... You..." Ding Wei couldn’t even get his words out properly and almost bit his own tongue. "My little uncle actually let you get on his bed?!"

It had to be known that Ding Yixin had an extremely strong sense of personal territory.
