Hi Master, Little Mermaid Will Support You! 70

Chapter 70

The Mermaid Center was under investigation, but the medical department, now under Dai Rong’s management, was still operating.

Today, they had a famous pair of visitors—

Admiral Wen and MuMu.

Word spread quickly, attracting attention.

“Oh no, is MuMu sick? I’m so worried!”

“It looks fine.”

“But Admiral Wen… what happened to his face?”

“I know those marks, my little devil scratches me all the time, those are mermaid claw marks!”

“Able to scratch the strongest person in the interstellar world, MuMu is the strongest of the strong!”

MuMu, its fever subsided, looked around curiously from Wen Ming’s shoulder:

“Awoo!” That’s a nice tank!

“We can play after the checkup.” Wen Ming touched its forehead, its temperature had gone down.

“Woo.” But I feel fine now.

After much whining and a quick check in the medical pod, MuMu was finally placed in the tank.

Wen Ming waited for the results.

“The mermaid is entering its mating season,” the doctor diagnosed.

Wen Ming paused.

“Some mermaids become agitated and destructive during mating season, and fluctuating body temperature is normal.”

Wen Ming added: “It’s also more fixated on scents than usual.”

The doctor, unfazed: “It’s natural for them to seek out the scent of the opposite sex during mating season, some even follow the scent relentlessly.”

Wen Ming paused: “Could they follow a human’s scent?”

“Unlikely,” the doctor shook his head. “Unless that person carries the scent of another mermaid.”

The doctor sent Wen Ming a document titled Mermaid Care During Mating Season:

“It’s best to find a mate for your mermaid as soon as possible, this will shorten the mating season, otherwise it can last for a long time.”

Wen Ming, about to leave, said: “Thank you.”

“Wait!”

The doctor smiled: “Admiral, you’re in luck, there’s a female mermaid in the tank outside, also in heat, they could…”

Wen Ming abruptly left.

By the tank outside, a woman was watching her mermaid:

“Wow, it’s MuMu!”

Wen Ming brushed past her: “MuMu!”

“Awoo?”

MuMu poked its head out of a pile of seashells, glanced at him, then quickly burrowed back in, its tail fin swishing happily.

“Looks like MuMu wants to play for a while longer.” A woman chuckled.

Wen Ming, having watched all of the masked streamer’s past livestreams, recognized her – Yi Yi, the pet streamer.

“My mermaid, Yi Yi, is in heat, I’m looking for a suitable mate for her.”

Yi Yi pointed at her mermaid, which was napping in a corner of the tank: “She’s a bit listless, I need to give her some supplements.”

Wen Ming: “Increased supplements during mating season?”

“Yes.” Yi Yi guessed, surprised. “Is MuMu also in heat?” Her eyes lit up, and she approached Wen Ming boldly: “Are you looking for a female mermaid for MuMu? Our mermaids are both beautiful and famous, a perfect match…”

Wen Ming’s dark eyes narrowed, and he said softly, his voice too low for MuMu to hear:

“Not a good match, MuMu has someone it likes.”

Yi Yi: “…Another mermaid?”

“Awoo—” A sudden cry from the tank.

MuMu thrashed about as if its tail was on fire, muttering: “No, no, no…”

Yi Yi, startled, grumbled: “Let a mermaid sleep!”

“Yi Yi!” MuMu pointed outside. “What do you think those two legged ones are doing?”

Yi Yi looked and saw Yi Yi leaning closer to Wen Ming.

“Obviously looking for mates, just like us.” Yi Yi sighed. “Strange, I smell mating season on you too, but I’m not attracted, like there’s a species barrier.”

“Mates!?”

No, I have to create a diversion!

MuMu panicked, a terrible idea forming: “Yi Yi, hit me, now!”

Yi Yi’s ears twitched: “What?”

“Remember how I helped you during the audition? Return the favor, hit me!”

MuMu presented its tail: “Come on!”

This provocative gesture triggered Yi Yi’s mischievous nature. It swam over excitedly and lunged at MuMu.

Yi Yi outside the tank: “They finally hit it off!”

Wen Ming’s brow twitched.

【—】

A wave of energy rippled through the air, and the tank shattered.

“Whoa!” Yi Yi instinctively shielded herself with her mental seascape.

When she opened her eyes, the tank was gone, and Wen Ming was holding both mermaids, preventing them from falling onto the broken glass.

Yi Yi’s heart skipped a beat: “You, you did this?”

Yi Yi, the mermaid, was terrified, frozen stiff by Wen Ming’s energy.

MuMu poked it gently: “Yi Yi, don’t worry, my Master’s mental seascape is like this, it leaks sometimes, he won’t hurt a mermaid.”

Wen Ming separated them, placing Yi Yi in the cage: “Apologies, take it for a checkup, I’ll cover any expenses.”

Dai Rong, hearing the crash, came to investigate.

“His mental seascape is unstable, did he hurt your mermaid?”

Yi Yi checked on her mermaid: “It reacts strongly to strangers, but it’s fine.” She took it for a checkup.

“I heard MuMu is in heat?” Dai Rong gave Wen Ming some medicine. “This will help.”

MuMu greeted her cheerfully: “Awoo, awoo!”

“Good MuMu.” Dai Rong smiled at it, then asked Wen Ming, “How’s your mental seascape?”

“I lost control.”

Dai Rong frowned: “Another episode?”

“No.” Wen Ming seemed to be hiding something. “Just… lost control.”

“?” Dai Rong sensed his mental seascape and relaxed. “Remember to pay for the tank.”

“Awoo~ woo!”

So that’s why my tail is so itchy!

MuMu remembered its mother’s words: Mating season is a crucial time, instincts and emotions intertwine, helping a Jiao Ren find its soulmate.

I’m a grown-up Jiao Ren now, ready for love!

Back at the villa, MuMu swished its tail happily.

“Good mood?” Wen Ming prepared the medicine, dissolving the pills in a special solution to mask the bitter taste.

MuMu climbed onto him: “Woo?” What’s wrong, are you in a bad mood?

Wen Ming put the medicine aside and held MuMu securely.

“Awoo.” Your mental seascape was out of control earlier, time for soothing! MuMu, completely misinterpreting Wen Ming’s gaze, kissed him.

Wen Ming responded hesitantly: “MuMu, humans close their eyes when they kiss.”

MuMu quickly closed its eyes.

Wen Ming, however, kept his eyes open, his gaze fixed on MuMu’s face, taking control of the kiss. He started with gentle pecks on the corner of MuMu’s mouth, slowly moving to its lips.

This frustrated MuMu. It blindly nipped at his lips, missing, and grumbled in protest.

“Patience, humans ask if the other person likes them before a deep kiss.” Wen Ming held its chin, teasing it.

MuMu purred.

“Yes, I like you too.”

Wen Ming finally stopped teasing, and their lips met, the sound of water filling the air.

“Woo?” Something’s not right!

MuMu peeked: Aren’t we soothing? You call this kissing?

Before it could see clearly, Wen Ming covered its eyes with his hand.

In the darkness, it felt his tongue and his increasingly wandering hands…

MuMu suddenly wanted to retreat.

“Mmm!”

It struggled, pushing him away, and said breathlessly:

“Awoo.” Those are human kissing rules, I’m not human, I want to kiss with my eyes open.

Wen Ming seemed to understand.

“Really? You’re not?” His voice was lower than usual, a husky murmur.

MuMu shifted uncomfortably: “…Awoo.”

Its tail, covered in scales, wasn’t as sensitive as its skin.

But even through the scales, it could feel something pressing against it.

“Growl!” What is that, so annoying!

MuMu looked down, ready to remove the offending object: “Awoo.” Wait, I’ll get it out for you, it must be uncomfortable.

Its touch, however, deflated its bravado like a punctured balloon.

Silence filled the mermaid room.

MuMu blew bubbles awkwardly: “Gurgle, gurgle…”

Haha, what a coincidence, you’re in heat too?

Wen Ming, his eyes calm and steady, watched it intently.

As if waiting for a confession.

MuMu, avoiding his gaze, grabbed the medicine Wen Ming had prepared earlier.

“Awoo.” This is for mating season, you seem to need it more than I do…

MuMu uncorked the bottle and, looking down, aimed it at the very obvious bulge:

“Awoo?” If I pour this on it, it will go down, right?

Wen Ming sighed and took the bottle, carrying MuMu back to the mermaid pool: “It’s not bitter, drink it.”

MuMu nodded obediently.

Wen Ming’s breathing was still ragged, his jaw tense, his mind struggling to maintain control.

“MuMu…” His eyes were filled with complex emotions. “Don’t worry about Kang Kang, it’s being treated by my mother.”

MuMu just kept nodding.

After Wen Ming left, MuMu relaxed, drinking the medicine. It was quickly effective, clearing its hazy mind.

Don’t worry about Kang Kang… Kang Kang!?

MuMu shivered.

How does Master know about Kang Kang?

My identity as the masked streamer has been exposed!

MuMu swam around frantically, its mind racing:

Should I confess now?

No, I’ll definitely see something I shouldn’t.

It bumped its head against the artificial rock, and a thought suddenly struck it:

“Awoo!” I’m not confessing like this!

Master knows about the masked streamer, but he’s pretending not to, if I hadn’t mentioned Kang Kang, he would have kept pretending, right?

I’ll pretend too, masked streamer, time for action!

“Beep beep, you have a package from the endorsement company.

Description: Invitation to the charity gala, this is your outfit.”

MuMu retrieved the outfit and held it up against itself:

“Little Butler, I finally understand why the clothes fit so perfectly, he must have taken my measurements himself!”

The home butler’s processing stuttered: “?”

“I’ll tell you a secret, Master knows I’m the masked streamer.” MuMu instructed, “But don’t tell him I know.”

Home Butler: Please, just let me live…
