Chapter 56 Does She Look Easy to Coax?
Yun Jiao thought that it was impossible. Who would be crazy enough to pile up garbage in their own home? It wasn't like he had a brain problem.

But she was still very curious whether He Yuzhang was the sea monster.

Yun Jiao withdrew his hand and asked directly, "Many people have died in the village, and the villagers are also very afraid of the sea. Is there something in the sea?"

The bed was not that big and the two of them were very close. Even if He Yuzhang didn't pay special attention, he could still smell the sweet and thick fragrance in his nose.

He lowered his eyes and saw the girl's slender white legs crossed together, shining with a bright light. He Yuzhang's eyes deepened, and he raised his hand to cover her with the quilt.

Without the distracting presence, He Yuzhang calmed himself down, stood up and stood in front of the bed and said.

"There is a sea monster that likes to eat people. Didn't you see it today?"

She had seen it? Yun Jiao's mind flashed back to the black thing that Chu Qing and his companions saw when they rescued the fishermen who fell into the water.

"When my companions were rescuing people, the one hiding at the bottom of the sea and trying to pull them down was that sea monster?"

He Yuzhang nodded, "If they had been more alert, they would have reached the shore without delay, otherwise they would have been killed by the sea monster along with the villagers."

At this point, He Yuzhang suddenly remembered that among those who rescued people, one was Yun Jiao's boyfriend, a hardworking man who doted on his girlfriend so much that he didn't even want her to walk any more. The man narrowed his eyes slightly.

After knowing that He Yuzhang was not a sea monster, Yun Jiao asked about the ghosts in the village.

"Is there a ghost in the fishing village? Are they the villagers who passed away?"

The man, who had the fierce characteristics common to mermaids, answered in a gentle tone, like a good man who would answer countless questions from his friend.

"Yes, they were eaten piece by piece by sea monsters before they died. As ghosts, they are extremely vicious and particularly like to eat humans piece by piece."

After saying this, seeing Yun Jiao's long eyelashes trembling, as if frightened by this description, He Yuzhang's tone became a little lighter, his voice was ethereal and pleasant, but also carried a hint of bewitching meaning.

"If you are worried about your companions, I can send them away from the fishing village." This sentence seems to imply that it is not easy to leave the fishing village.

But Yun Jiao understood what He Yuzhang meant, which was that he wanted her to stay and let Chu Qing and the others leave.

It's just a pity that Yun Jiao doesn't have the hobby of sacrificing others for herself, nor is she a saint who is so kind that it moves heaven and earth. Does she look easy to please in exchange for the safety of Chu Qing and others?
Yun Jiao raised her eyes and glanced at the man. He Yuzhang's long hair fell on his robe. She didn't know if it was because he was a merman, but his handsome face seemed to have an extremely strong beauty filter, making him look bewitching.

"Oh, I'm still selfish, so let them work their way out."

As Yun Jiao spoke, she threw the bracelet that the man had put on her hand accurately towards He Yuzhang, tilting her head to give a friendly reminder.

"I cannot accept this betrothal gift. Mr. Mermaid, please pay attention to the etiquette when you send a betrothal gift next time. It is scary to let the betrothal gift cling to someone."

"That's it. Thanks for clearing up my confusion. I'm going to take a break now."

Yun Jiao naturally drove people away.

She was really sleepy, and there was urgency in her eyes.

The corner of He Yuzhang's mouth twitched. He held the returned betrothal gift in his hand, stroking the sandalwood beads on it, and spoke gently as if indulging a naughty child.

"Have you forgotten that this bracelet can keep those ghosts away? Are you sure you want to give it back to me?"

Yun Jiao, who was so sleepy that his brain was short-circuited, suddenly remembered that this bracelet had this wonderful use. The signal was quickly connected, and he stood up to discuss.

"Then I'll borrow it for two days and return it to you when we leave?"
