Chapter 50:
Zhou Suiyu stayed at Shen An'an's apartment for one night last night, and he must not be like this again today.
Let's not say that the two are not officially together yet, even if they are really together, this is not appropriate.
This little mermaid obviously doesn't understand the difference between men and women, and doesn't care too much about human politeness, but Zhou Suiyu can't despise her just because she doesn't care.
Not to mention the three media and six hires, at least the two must first formally confirm their relationship, and then meet the parents of both parties before they can consider further things.
Anyway, I definitely can't go to sleep together in a vague way like last night.
After all, if his parents knew about this, there would only be two outcomes. Either he would break his leg directly, or he would pack up for the two of them and go to the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Both of these results were not what Zhou Suiyu wanted.
At least not yet.
It's not that he doesn't want to take responsibility, he just thinks that the little mermaid might not even know what "being together" or "marrying" means. And the little mermaid was on the island before, and the human beings she could come into contact with might not be anyone else except him.
Determining a relationship under such circumstances is actually very unfair to the Little Mermaid.
Zhou Suiyu is willing to wait.
After the Little Mermaid has lived in human society for a period of time and understands more about things between men and women, then think about it.
If the little mermaid is still willing to be with him at that time, he will confess to her.
When it comes to confession, this is also something that gives Zhou Suiyu a great headache.
After all, as a single dog with a mother and child, Zhou Suiyu will never talk about falling in love in this life, and he has never even had a heartbeat.
Now it's hard to have a love interest, but it turns out that the other party is a fish.
Even if it is a fish, the other party can take the initiative more than him.
Zhou Suiyu sighed in his heart, why does his love path feel a little unsettled inexplicably? of
Of course, the top priority right now is not this. The focus now is to solve the problem of sleeping at night.
So after walking downstairs in Shen An'an's apartment, Zhou Suiyu stopped in time: "An An, that, I won't go up, I have to go back to the research institute."
Shen Anan glanced at him: "Why?"
Zhou Suiyu opened his mouth, and before he could speak, he heard Shen Anan continue to say, "Are you going to work overtime?"
"…"
Zhou Suiyu looked at her in amazement: "Do you still know how to work overtime?"
Shen An'an: "Grandpa Turtle said. He also said that every time a human man lies and cheats his wife, he says he has to work overtime."
Zhou Suiyu: "...???"
Fortunately, he didn't say that he was going to work overtime just now, otherwise he would fall into the pit!
Zhou Suiyu: "...I'm not going to work overtime, I've been living in the dormitory of the research institute, and I have to go back to sleep."
Shen An'an: "But..."
Zhou Suiyu interrupted her: "An'an, listen to me, in our human society, boys and girls cannot live together casually. If there is a boy, casually is right. You, then he must be trying to take advantage of you, and you should stay away from him."
Shen An'an: "So you don't want to take advantage of me?"
Zhou Suiyu: "…"
To think, or not to think, is a really good question.
Zhou Suiyu felt that he couldn't think along the lines of the little mermaid, because if he followed the ideas of the little mermaid, the topic would definitely go astray.
And it's easy to get carried into the ditch by this little mermaid.
So he resolutely put the topic back on track: "Don't you have a mobile phone? If you are afraid of the dark at night or have anything else, just call me."
Shen An'an: "Any time?"
Zhou Suiyu smiled slightly: "Any time, I won't turn off the phone at night, I promise."
The benefits of the Whale Deep Sea Research Institute are notoriously good. In addition to the high subsidy when going to sea, the other point is that the staff dormitories of their research institute are all single-person dormitories.
Although it is a bedroom with a separate bathroom, such conditions have already made many colleagues envious and jealous.
The dormitory has central heating, so Zhou Suiyu took off his jacket as soon as he entered. I haven't come back to live for such a long time, and the bed and floor of the dormitory are covered with ash.
Zhou Suiyu rolled up his sleeves and swept the floor off. He poured a basin of water and wiped the table on the bed and the cabinet clean inside and out. Then he put the quilt on the radiator and baked it, ready to make do with sleep. night.
Let's talk tomorrow.
As soon as I finished washing up and lay down, the phone on the bedside rang.
Zhou Suiyu touched the phone and glanced at it, and immediately connected: "Hey, An An, is something wrong?"
Shen Anan was also lying in bed at the moment.
She took a shower, changed into new pajamas, and lay alone in a strange apartment in this strange city, inexplicably a little insomnia. I think a little bit about the old turtle, and a little bit about the oarfish. But the old turtle and the oarfish couldn't get in touch, so they had no choice but to contact Zhou Suiyu.
Shen Anan: "I can't sleep a little..."
can not fall asleep!
Zhou Suiyu turned over to make himself more comfortable, and then said, "How about you count sheep?"
Shen Anan: "...???"
Shen An'an: "I can't count sheep, I can only count fish."
Zhou Suiyu: "...you can count fish too."
Shen An'an: "Charcoal grilled fish, spicy fish, braised fish, chopped pepper fish, spicy fish..."
Zhou Suiyu: "…"
If you count like this, will there really be no psychological shadows?
Even if you have no psychological shadow, wouldn't you be hungry if you count like this?
Sure enough, just thinking about it, I heard the little mermaid say faintly on the other end of the phone: "Zhou Suiyu, I'm hungry."
Zhou Suiyu sighed in his heart: "...Then what do you want to eat, I will buy it and send it to you."
It's so late in the winter, Shen An'an hesitated for a while, and finally didn't want to let Zhou Suiyu run again: "Forget it, I'm not particularly hungry, I seem to be able to bear it, and when I fall asleep, I guess I won't be hungry."
Zhou Suiyu: "I'm talking about counting fish. It's one fish, two fish, three fish. It's not the way you just did..."
Shen Anan snorted and said, "But I don't want to count the fish."
Zhou Suiyu asked gently, "Then what do you want to do?"
Shen An'an: "Tell me a bedtime story! When I couldn't sleep in the sea before, Grandpa Turtle told me bedtime stories."
Grandpa Turtle is a brick, move it wherever you need it!
A bedtime story?
Zhou Suiyu thought about it for a while, and the only fairy tale that could be remembered in his mind at the moment was Andersen's "The Daughter of the Sea". Because the protagonist of this fairy tale, like the person on the other side of the phone, is the little mermaid.
He took out his mobile phone, searched for the story, turned on the speakerphone, and slowly said to Shen Anan on the other end of the phone: "In the distance of the sea, the water is so blue, like the most beautiful cornflower petals, and at the same time So clear again...they are six beautiful children..."
Andersen's fairy tale, Shen Anan heard it when she was very young. I can't remember many details, but I remember that the little mermaid saved the handsome prince and fell in love with him.
And the end of the story is also a proper tragedy. Because the little mermaid eventually turned into a bubble and disappeared.
But she still listened carefully.
Speaking of Zhou Suiyu's voice is really nice, she didn't pay special attention to it before, because the focus of attention before was on Zhou Suiyu's face and his cooking skills, so he ignored Zhou Suiyu's sound.
At this moment, in the dead of night, Zhou Suiyu's voice quietly flowed out of the phone, and Shen Anan felt that the voice was really clear and standard in Mandarin.
And maybe because he was talking about a bedtime story, he deliberately lowered his voice a little, so he seemed a little tired. I can't tell exactly what it tastes like, but it's quite Su's gentle voice.
Zhou Suiyu talked about the encounter between the little mermaid and the prince, and how the little mermaid made a deal with the witch in the sea because she fell in love with the prince. The price exchanged legs and went ashore to find the prince...
Shen An'an and Cheng An listened quietly, only making a little noise occasionally, indicating that he was listening carefully.
Finally, Zhou Suiyu came to the end of the story.
Shen Anan thought she would hear the original ending, but she heard Zhou Suiyu on the other end of the phone, and said softly, "The prince recognized the little mermaid as the one who rescued him in the sea, and finally understood that the little mermaid was the one who rescued him in the sea. The mermaid's love for him. Then, the prince and the little mermaid lived happily ever after."
The mobile phone in the ear has become slightly hot due to long-term use, and even Shen An'an's ears have become hot. But Shen An'an was extremely happy at the moment, so happy that she just wanted to roll around under the covers.
Look, this is Zhou Suiyu.
He would never say nice things before, but he would do everything for her.
Now he still can't say something nice, but in order to make her happy, he will read a bedtime story gently, and silently change the ending of the fairy tale for her.
This is Zhou Suiyu, hers, Zhou Suiyu.
