Upon hearing the voice, Leng Yao's eyes instantly welled up with tears.
Wanwan tugged at his sleeve coaxingly. "Brother~ Don't be mad at me anymore. I'm back now. Can't you give me a better look?"
Leng Yao turned around and stared at him. After a long while, he finally said, "Why did you go to such a place? That place is extremely terrifying. I've always warned you not to wander around after getting ashore. Why didn't you take my words to heart?"
Wanwan hung his head. "It was just a moment of carelessness that allowed the bad guys to take advantage of me. I'm back now, so brother, don't worry anymore."
Leng Yao glanced back at him. He originally wanted to scold him with a straight face, but after looking at him for a long time, he couldn't say a word. He sighed and said, "It's good that you're back."
After saying that, he reached out to stroke Wanwan's neck. Wanwan knew the red marks on his neck hadn't faded yet, so he turned his head uncomfortably to avoid it. Leng Yao's eyes flickered a few times. He softly said, "You must have suffered a lot during this trip."
Wanwan bit his lower lip and endured the urge to cry. He held Leng Yao's palm but didn't say a word. Leng Yao patted his shoulder and comforted him gently, "Don't feel wronged. It's good that you're back."
Wanwan nodded. "Was it hard for brother to give birth for the first time?"
Hearing this, Leng Yao felt a bit embarrassed. His cheeks flushed slightly, and he lay back down. "What's a big man asking about this for?" After saying that, he might have felt his words were a bit inappropriate, so he softly added, "You don't need to dwell on this. Anyway, it won't concern you. It was a bit painful, but it's just some minor injuries."
Wanwan nodded. As if just remembering something, he said, "Feng Yu is still waiting outside. I have to go tell father and mother quickly and then go pick him up."
Leng Yao suddenly grabbed his wrist. "You don't need to tell father and mother for now. I have a few water beads here. Take them and go pick him up quickly. If you tell father and mother and then go pick him up, it definitely won't work."
Wanwan pursed his lips. "Do father and mother not like humans?"
Leng Yao remained silent without answering his question. It seemed like he was admitting it. He turned around and took out two water beads from the wooden box beside his pillow.
"Go find him first and bring him to see me. I'll explain the rest to you later."
Wanwan quickly caught the two water beads. He nodded nervously and then swam out, not even having the time to take a look at his newborn nephew.
Feng Yu had always followed Wanwan's words and didn't dare to move, fearing that if he did, Wanwan wouldn't be able to find him. He didn't hear any movement until midnight.
In the night, Feng Yu saw the blue figure emerging from the water. For a moment, he couldn't tell whether it was the sea or a human figure.
"Brother Feng Yu!!!"
Feng Yu quickly leaned down and looked at him. "What did your brother say? Do your parents know about me? Can I go in now???"
After asking a series of questions, Wanwan just reached out and handed him the beads in his hand. "Quickly eat one and keep the other. Eat it when you come out."
Feng Yu quickly put one in his mouth and dived in without looking back.
After eating the water bead, Feng Yu felt a huge change when he got underwater. He could swim faster and even breathe underwater.
But he still couldn't keep up with the speed of these mermaids.
After taking a couple of breaths, Feng Yu caught up with him again. "Why can you swim so fast?"
Wanwan turned back and said, "Hurry up. My brother is eager to see you."
Wanwan didn't know how much of an effect this sentence had on him. In the blink of an eye, Wanwan could only see his butt from behind.
Wanwan led him quietly in through the side door, making sure his father and mother didn't see them. Even if his parents saw them, he had to let the two of them meet first.
Wanwan knew they had a lot to say, so he quietly slipped away to see the baby. The baby was lying in a pearl oyster shell. It had a human body and a fish tail covered in scales. It was a rather good - looking baby.
"I wonder if this child has a name yet?"
Wanwan pinched the baby's small palm and talked to himself. After a while, he fell asleep beside the baby.
Feng Yu blinked his eyes and sized up the surrounding environment. He asked in a low voice, "Are you... feeling better?"
Leng Yao pursed his lips and didn't say a word. Feng Yu lay on the edge of the bed and softly said, "Wife~ Pay attention to me."
Leng Yao said awkwardly, "If I had known giving birth would be so hard, I wouldn't have done it. No matter how you coaxed me, I definitely wouldn't have let you leave that thing inside..."
Feng Yu pinched his finger and said in a soft voice, "But I've brought your younger brother back for you. Look, he's not missing any arms or legs."
Hearing this, Leng Yao frowned slightly and asked, "Speaking of this, I suddenly remembered something. How did the injury on my younger brother's neck happen?"
There was an embarrassed look on Feng Yu's face. He really didn't know how to tell him this or how to explain it. But at that time, he didn't have the ability to do anything. After all, it was someone else's territory, and that person was the emperor of that place.
"I'll tell you about this slowly later. For now, you should take good care of your body..."
Leng Yao frowned and looked at him seriously. "Did my younger brother encounter something he shouldn't have in the palace, or were these wounds caused before he entered the palace?"
Feng Yu dodged his gaze and didn't know what to say. He could only go along with his mood. "Your younger brother is back now. Don't mention those things anymore. It'll just make your brother sad. Isn't that counterproductive?"
Leng Yao gritted his teeth and endured. He took two deep breaths. Feng Yu softly asked, "Is it a baby boy or a baby girl?"
Leng Yao casually said, "A baby girl."
Feng Yu was stunned for two seconds and then burst out laughing. "A baby girl is great! I like baby girls!!! Wife has really worked hard~ How about I stay here and take good care of you? If your parents really look down on me, I can leave after you finish your confinement."
Leng Yao snorted. "My father's temper won't allow you to stay here for so long."
Feng Yu mumbled, "So your parents really look down on me!"
Leng Yao turned his head and glared at him. "You're trying to get information from me here?!"
