Chapter 4 - Eager
"What did you say?" Daryl had just taken a few steps when Lei Meng grabbed him by the colr.
Daryl saw the eagerness and anger in the depths of Lei Meng's eyes. He could guarantee that if what he said was a lie to fool Lei Meng, the other party would throw him out directly.
"Today at noon…" Daryl took a deep breath. Nevermind, he had already mentioned the blind date earlier, it would be impossible to treat it as nothing. Lei Meng would know sooner or ter. "The mermaid that I have a blind date with this noon almost looks exactly the same as your sweetheart. Why don't you take a look?"
As a good friend, you can't marry someone who looks very simir to your best friend's White Moonlight, especially when you know what the White Moonlight looks like.
Daryl hasn't lost his mind over [the thought of] marrying a mermaid. The merfolks are important and so is having children. He had to consider his best friend as well. If he really did marry that mermaid, not only his retionship with his best friend would end but also the friendly cooperative retionship of their two families would colpse.
"I've sent you the pictures on your optical computer during the blind date." Daryl folded his arms, "Can you unblock me now?"
Daryl can guarantee that he was on Lei Meng's blocklist.
Upon hearing this, Lei Meng let go of Daryl and prepared to open his optical computer.
"Next time…" Daryl took a deep breath again, "Can you please not block me again? Look, earlier, didn't you receive the message in time? I've heard that the Bureau has a mermaid with good compatibility match rates with multiple nobles, so I'm guessing it's him."
Tsk tsk. If he hadn't come over or if Lei Meng didn't go and take a look, Daryl could guarantee that the mermaid would soon go on another blind date with other nobles. There would always be a noble who would want to be with that mermaid.
No, maybe the next one will.
Daryl might have pursued that mermaid if Yu Qing hadn't looked so simir to his friend's White Moonlight.
"Yu Qing?" Lei Meng frowned.
"Yes, that's him…" Daryl was about to say something else when he saw Lei Meng running out like a gust of wind,"Ah, hey, do you even know where he lives?"
Where does he live? Lei Meng doesn't have to think about it too much. If he wanted to know where that mermaid lives, just a simple investigation is enough.
So Lei Meng directly contacted a person from the Mermaid Protection Association. The Association Director never expected Lei Meng to contact him.
"Did you finally figure out that you desire a mermaid?" The Association Director, who was older than Lei Meng, knew him enough to say teasing words. "The mermaid matches you 99.9%. If you hadn't given up, then he wouldn't have to have blind dates with other nobles. Are you regretting it now?"
“Where does he live?” Lei Meng asked again. He wanted to go confirm it for himself.
For the time being, there’s no need for a blind date. Lei Meng wanted to make sure that You Qing is his beloved.
It was obvious that that person was just an ordinary Omega. Oh right, he’s not just ordinary either. That person’s pheromone scent was superb and their compatibility match rate must be exceptional. But before Lei Meng can even approach, he learned that the other person has a boyfriend. An Alpha.
That Alpha is a nobleman. A nobleman who can't commit to his responsibilities. Forced into an engagement with another mermaid by his family and still wants to have a sadomasochistic retionship with another omega.
Later, when Lei Meng turned his attention to that person again, his beloved disappeared. Lei Meng has sent someone to investigate. Only to find out that his beloved was being harassed by that scum nobleman's family and being hunted down.
Even though the pursuit was not ordered by that nobleman's family, for years, Lei Meng has suppressed that noble family along with the mermaid’s family connected to them through engagement. It was remarked that the mermaid has an arrogant disposition. It was expined that it wasn’t intentional and that he only wanted to teach a lesson to the third party who interfered in their retionship.
Haha, what kind of third party? It was clearly a scum noble and a disgusting mermaid.
Lei Meng always felt that his beloved is blind whenever he remembered this.
“A protected safe area.” answered by the Mermaid Protection Association Director
“Where?” Lei Meng asked again. “I promise under the Lei Family's name that I will never harm the mermaid nor impede the mermaid's rights on their freedom of marriage.”
There’s no need to worry about Lei Meng being overbearing. He doesn't have any intention of harming the mermaid. Lei Meng just wanted a confirmation. He hopes that the mermaid is his beloved person. It’s just that he's afraid that if it turns out that his beloved is a mermaid was true, then how much suffering his beloved has experienced to go through with the mermaid transformation surgery?
At the beginning, Lei Meng’s people found out that his beloved was being hunted down for assassination in their investigation. But he was neither alive nor was there any corpse found. Lei Meng would rather believe that his beloved was still alive than him being dead.
“Wait a moment and I’ll send it to your optical computer.” What else could the Director do? He believes in Lei Meng's character. And even if he didn't say anything, with the Lei Family's capability, he could still find it out.
“Don't tell anyone.” Lei Meng did not forget to remind the other party. Regardless of whether the mermaid was his beloved or not, he doesn't want the Association Director to tell the truth about him asking for the mermaid's address.
“Of course.” The Association Director nodded. He was not stupid. He opened a backdoor for personal gain. It’s already been done so how could he still say the truth?
Tsk tsk. I previously asked Lei Meng to go on a blind date but he refused. But now he’s going to meet someone? As, today’s youngsters are really too complex to understand. / are really too much.
The Association Director doesn’t have much to worry and didn't notify the staff taking care of the mermaid. Anyway, Lei Meng was just going to observe. Maybe from a far, like standing outside in the yard not even going inside the house. So it’s impossible to scare the mermaid. Then there’s no need to send out reminders.
But Yu Qing has no knowledge of this at all. He was studying on another pnet before he changed his identity and moved to Imperial Star.
Yu Qing came to the Imperial Star not because his noble boyfriend lives there, but simply because he thinks that there was much more delicious food in the Imperial Star. The Imperial Star is prosperous, and Yu Qing also thought that he would be able to find a suitable Alpha to fall in love with one day.
In fact, it is much more convenient to register for a compatibility match here at the Genetic Management Bureau in Imperial Star. And there’s also a lot of nobles in Imperial Star.
“How troublesome.” Yu Qing half leaning against the sofa. He still has to go on a blind date tomorrow. It felt like he’s salted fish waiting for a customer to buy.
Yu Qing poked his optical computer. He has already resigned and the promised sary will be paid this month. How come my sary hasn't been paid yet? Regardless if it’s only just a few thousand [yuan], although it’s unlikely to buy a few MK23 pnet’s extravagant cherries, a small fly is still meat.
He felt it was necessary to contact his former company’s financial department and ask if they had forgotten to pay his sary.
It just so happened that the balcony door and window were open, so Lei Meng just climbed up to the balcony to observe while carefully hiding.
“It’s me, Yu Qing. Did you people forget my paycheck?” Yu Qing believes that he is being menacing. “The other employees’ have already received their paychecks yesterday. How come that I, a resigned employee, have not received my paycheck yet? Do you want to receive a wyer’s letter? Or do you want me to come straight to your door?”
‘Hey, do you want some money or should I just beat you up?’ Lei Meng suddenly remembered a scene from a long time ago when he was rescued by his beloved.
