Mermaid Love Story

Then, I suddenly remembered an important matter. 

Could it be that my golden scales can only stop bleeding? 

I noticed his eyes didn't seem to change at all, or that he was born blind. It's also possible that when the fairy molded him, she forgot to paint his pupils for him. 

I curiously waved my hand in front of him, "Young master Luong, your eyes... can't you see?"

Luong Huu Thuan nodded slightly. His handsome face had a contemplative look.

"I… I'm sorry." I interlaced my fingers and said awkwardly.

Luong Huu Thuan said in a low voice, "You don't have to apologize to me. Besides, I wasn't born blind."

My curiosity was aroused, and I immediately asked, "Isn't it innate?"

Luong Huu Thuan nodded and replied, "Because I was poisoned."

After he finished speaking, I became more curious. I don't know how poisonous this poison is that even the golden scales can't cure. 

While I was thinking about it, he continued to ask.

"Thuy Van, can I call you Thuy Van?"

I nodded slightly and replied, "Okay."

He continued, "You can call me Huu Thuan. Don't call me young master anymore. Anyway, you saved my life. Later, I will treat you like a relative, trying to repay you."

When I heard him say that, I was a bit confused. Although I knew that Luong Huu Thuan couldn't see me, I still felt my face was hot with shame. 

I quickly turned to him and put the bowl of porridge in his hand and said, "I don't ask you to repay me. Young Master Luong, the porridge is still hot. Try to eat it all."

Because his hands were cold, I had to keep his hand pressed to the bowl of porridge and hold it for a while to warm his hand. 

When he could feel the existence of the bowl, I let go of his hand and walked away.

I ran to the kitchen and looked at my face in the basin of water. 

At this time, I realized that my face was covered with soot. There are some similarities to the black-and-white cat that often sneaks along with the fisher to the river, then suddenly steals a fish, and then runs away.

I don't know if it was because of the cold or because of embarrassment, but my cheeks turned red a lot. Fortunately, the guy didn't see it, otherwise, I would be even more embarrassed. 

I scooped up some water to wash my face with my hands and took a deep breath, then looked outside. 

Suddenly, I saw a black patch emerge in the snow. I rushed there and tried to scrape the snow with my hands. 

It turned out to be a small boat that was upside down.

Suddenly, I thought that maybe the man was trying to cross the river, but I was afraid that overnight the snow would thicken and it would be difficult to pull the boat out. 

Therefore, I frantically scraped the snow that was covering the boat and struggled to pull it into the hut. 

When I looked up, it was already dark.

It was late at night, and the fire in the hut was still bright, and the rotten sticks sometimes made a pleasant crackling sound. The wind howled through the thatched roof, creating a rustling sound. 

Luong Huu Thuan sat by the fire, his hand slowly wiping the short sword again and again. 

I feel that the person next to me is strange because he can't see anything, but his movements are very skillful. If it were me, my entire hand would be cut off.

Through the flickering firelight, I found this guy extremely handsome. 

His face was indifferent, but it didn't make me feel distant. His skin is even whiter than mine. 

Suddenly, he stopped wiping his short sword and turned to me.

"Thuy Van, why are you looking at me like that? You've never seen a man as beautiful as me, right?"

When he asked me, I got out of my chaotic thoughts. 

Why in the world is there a person who thinks he is so beautiful? How does he know I was looking at him? Aren't his eyes blind? 

I narrowed my eyes and looked at him suspiciously.

Luong Huu Thuan put the short sword back in its scabbard and burst into a loud laugh that made me bewildered and didn't understand why. 

The more he laughed, the more embarrassed I became. Finally, I was so embarrassed that I got angry, so I stood up and yelled, "You are a narcissist. Who wants to look at you? You are so…”

I hurriedly turned my back and left, but I had only taken two steps when I was hugged by an arm from behind. 

Although I tried to struggle, I couldn't get out. 

This scoundrel said his eyes couldn't see, but why did he hug me so precisely like that? 

I yelled, "Let go of me."

Luong Huu Thuan smiled wryly and said, "I don't want to."

It turns out this is his true nature. 

How dare he treat his benefactor like that? 

Before that, he said he remembered my favor and would repay me. 

This man is a liar.

Despite my struggles, Luong Huu Thuan still hugged me tightly, then suddenly, he smiled gently, leaned his head on my shoulder, and whispered, "Why do you still refuse to admit that you like me."

Oh, oh…oh, this is the first time I've met such a bold person. 

I am the Third Princess of the Water Tribe, but now I am being bullied by a mortal. 

I was both angry and embarrassed, so I raised my hand to prepare to hit him when he suddenly let go of his hand from my waist, then turned me around to face him and put his hands on my shoulders.

"Thuy Van, although we have just met for the first time, I feel very familiar. The moment you handed me the bowl of porridge, the warmth of your hand warmed my icy heart. Until now, except for my mother, no one has ever given me such a warm feeling. I want you to be my wife. I want to be with you and take care of you for the rest of my life. Thuy Van, please agree to marry me."

I heard a rumbling sound like thunder in my ears. 

Could it be that this guy saw that I was considerate to him, so he remembered his mother and wanted me to marry him? 

Maybe because he lacked love so much that he accepted to marry a girl he did not know her face was distorted or round. 

My tongue kept curling, so I was speechless, and it took a long time before I could speak.

"No, no... Big Brother Luong...Young Master Luong, you don't have to repay me this way. Even though you don't have gold, silver, and jewels, you shouldn't repay me with your body. I don't need it."

"You want gold, silver, and jewels, right?"

I don't know if he's stupid to ask like that. At least he should understand that this is a very elegant refusal from me. 

There was no other way, so I nodded vigorously.

"That's right. No one does not want gold and silver. You have nothing. You can't see. How will you take care of me? I won't marry you even if I die. I must marry someone who can feed me five meals a day and let me wear five layers of clothes."

I saw him stupefied for a moment and then he frowned, "Is that all you need?"

I hastily added the condition, "Not only that. My husband must be the most powerful man. He must be someone below a few people but above dozens of people..."

Before I finished speaking, I saw his forehead furrow, so I stopped talking. 

I don't know where the words come from, but I say so much and I feel like I'm exaggerating.

But what other way do I have? He and I have two different identities. I was only on the land for a few days. How can I be with him for the rest of my life? 

After all, we've only just gotten to know each other, so there's nothing to keep in mind. I hope he will find this relationship difficult and back off.

Luong Huu Thuan slowly let go of my two shoulders. I'm sure he gave up already. I don't know why I suddenly felt a sense of sadness and regret in my heart. 

I looked down at the ground, absolutely not daring to look at his face.

Suddenly, his hands slid along my arms and grabbed my hands, and squeezed them so tight that I was startled and looked up.

He was smiling, a confident smile that shone like the sun. He lifted my hand and kissed it softly, "Be assured. Whatever you want, the crown prince can give you. It's okay if you want to eat ten meals a day, and it's okay if you want to wear eight layers of clothes."

I looked at him and stammered, "Crown Prince... you... Do you dare say these words? Great immorality. If anyone hears this, you will be beheaded, no joke."

Luong Huu Thuan smiled and said, "I am the reigning crown prince. What I say cannot be called a great rebellion and immorality. I fulfill all your requirements so you can't turn me down."

Oh, the more I listen, the more stupid I become. How can he be the crown prince? Compared to my requirements, he is a perfect fit. 

Why am I unlucky like this? Turns out I was digging a hole for myself and he even jumped in to help me dig.

I still did not give up and said sternly, "But I don't want to marry a blind man. You don't even know if your wife's face is distorted or round."

Luong Huu Thuan reached out and gently touched my face and firmly affirmed, "Do not worry. Mr. Cao Dao will heal my eye and I will see your face."

I was just waiting for that and I quickly slipped from his grasp and took a few steps back and voiced my suspicions, "Are you really the crown prince of Luong?"

"Are you doubting me?"

Luong Huu Thuan was about to grab me, but he couldn't make it in time, so he stood still and stretched his hand out in front of me. 

I looked at his face and chuckled. 

This guy is overestimating himself. Does he think he can catch this princess?

When he asked me that, I immediately replied, "If I doubt you, can you let me go?"

"No. My background is real. There's no reason for me to let you go."
