Chapter 45
Chapter 45
Time flies when people have something they really want to do. This sentence is also applicable to Lei Boding who has become a mermaid. From the beginning of planning to sell Cheng Chi’s candy to the first sale scene to the business. On track, half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.
In the past six months, not only Lei Boding's business has started, but also other people have changed more or less. Ivor and Raph have each become partners with their lovers, Cheng Chi, who also came from the earth. After spending a thrilling night of blood and being injured gloriously, he also married the silent and steady Claude. Lei Boding contributed a lot to Pimple's oath.
He did almost everything he wanted to do, and Lei Boding, who was slowly starting to relax again, began to think about finding something to do for himself. At this time, the patriarch gathered his group of young fish together.
"I called you here today because I have something to inform you." Patriarch Chas hasn't changed much in the past half a year, and he is still serious as usual. Looking at the young fish who are sitting together and listening to him, Chas coughed lightly and continued, "During the fishing season, I made an appointment with the patriarchs of other mermaid tribes to take the young mermaids from their respective tribes to visit Liam's tribe, and now it's the agreement It's time, so I'm here to let you know..."
For the first time, before Chas had finished speaking, the mermaids below began to discuss excitedly, especially those young mermaids who were unmarried but of the right age, who were even more excited.
Compared to other mermaids whose faces were full of brilliance, married mermaids like Lei Boding and Avrafur looked very calm.
Regarding this kind of gathering, Lei Boting has also known a lot about this kind of gathering after coming to the mermaid world for so long. Each mermaid tribe is only two or three hundred people to death. If you come and go, there will always be resource matching exhausted. At that time, mermaids still cared about the marriage of close relatives, so at this time, they had to look further afield.To put it bluntly, this kind of tribal exchange meeting is a blind date meeting. The patriarchs bring the unmarried mermaids of their own clans together to communicate and communicate. Let's live together as a couple, which can be regarded as introducing fresh blood to their respective tribes. Anyway, there are coming and going, and each will suffer.
Although the essence is a blind date meeting, in addition to bringing those unmarried single mermaids, we still have to bring some married mermaids who have become married and matured to take care of them on the road, which is why Lei Boding's death meeting The reason why the 'husband' was also called.
The patriarch saw that most of the people were already absent-minded, so he didn't say much, and let everyone disperse after setting the departure time.
And after Lei Boding and Raphel Ivor greeted each other, they swam deep into the sea to the surface—Cheng Chi asked him to meet today.
"Brother, why are you calling me here so anxiously?" Lei Boting changed back to his Mandarin when he saw Cheng Chi, which he euphemistically called not changing his local accent.
But obviously, today's Cheng Chi didn't have much interest in chatting with him, he seemed a little out of his mind.
"What's the matter?" Lei Boting also noticed something was wrong with Cheng Chi, thinking that he had something to help himself and it was hard to say, so he sat down on the rock and patted Cheng Chi, who had a constipated face, "What's the matter?" Is it? If you have something to say, you can talk, buddy will do anything for you."
Cheng Chi turned his head to look at his friend who looked at him with a complicated expression, opened and closed his mouth several times, and finally uttered a sentence, "I'm pregnant."
"What?!" Lei Boding felt like a landmine exploded next to his ear, completely stunned him.
Cheng Chi is pregnant as an original male on earth, Cheng Chi is pregnant, pregnant...
Although Lei Boting pretended to be calm in front of Cheng Chi and offered advice, but after returning to the sea, Lei Boting immediately turned into a dazed state, and almost hit the reef several times, so he came to play with him The little dolphin deflected him and avoided the bloody end.
One from Earth, original, man, pregnant.These few words played back and forth in Lei Boding's mind.That’s right, time travel, mermaids, and even orcs can understand, but the fact that a man’s pregnancy breaks through the sky still makes Lei Boding a little indigestion, especially when Cheng Chi swears that he is definitely not an intersex person .
Thinking about it, Lei Boting couldn't help covering his face with his hands, "I really am too young, too simple, sometimes naive."
When Derby opened the door, he saw Lei Boding's distraught look. He was a little worried, and stepped forward to hold his hand, "What's the matter? Raphel and the others have already returned. Where have you been?"
Lei Boting came back to his senses and looked at Derby who was looking at him worriedly, rubbed his face vigorously with his hands, shook his head and said, "Cheng Chi is looking for me today, so I went to the sea after I got out of the patriarch's place."
Hearing that he was looking for Cheng Chi, Derby felt relieved, "Oh, I'm looking for A Chi, is he okay? I haven't seen him for a long time."
"Okay..." When Derby asked about Cheng Chi's recent situation, Lei Boding immediately had a painful expression when he remembered the bomb that Cheng Chi had planted himself, "Okay, we can't do it."
Lei Boding's expression made Derby frown, thinking that Cheng Chi had encountered something embarrassing but he didn't want to worry about himself, so he moved closer to Lei Boting, "Why do you still have this expression?"
Lei Boting understood that Derby had misunderstood, and quickly adjusted his expression and tone, "It's really good, really."
"Really?" Derby still didn't believe it.
Lei Boding nodded vigorously, "Really, Cheng Chi is going to be a Daddy, can it be okay?"
"What? Chi is going to be Daddy?" Derby was also dumbfounded, "He, he is pregnant?"
"Yeah, he——is pregnant." It was extremely difficult for Lei Boting to say the word "pregnancy." As soon as he thought of Cheng Chi talking to himself with his belly and waist propped up in a few months, his face was full of maternal love, He couldn't help shivering.
But Lei Boting's constipated face had another meaning in Derby's eyes. This meaning Derby realized made his face a little sad and silent.
Lei Boting put on imaginary chicken wings and finally noticed the change in his wife's expression, "What's wrong with you?"
This time it was Derby's turn to shake his head, "Nothing."
"It's nothing." Lei Boting was not so easy to fool, "It was fine just now, why is his face so ugly now, is there something uncomfortable?"
Facing Lei Boding's genuinely concerned eyes, Derby finally couldn't help asking, "We've been together for so long, and I don't have... no children, do you mind?"
"Huh?" Lei Boting didn't expect Derby to ask such a question, and was a little taken aback.
Derby bit his lip and continued to ask, "Even Oz has a baby in his stomach, but I... I have no news yet. Tell me, tell me, will I... Will I not..."
"No, don't think about it." Lei Boting came back to his senses and interrupted Derby's words without thinking.
But obviously this matter is like a heavy stone in Derby's heart for too long, too long, and now Derby can't hold back anymore. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he exploded, and he held Lei Boding tightly. hands, eyes a little red, "Lei, tell me, will it be like my brow beads and fingers that my inability to have a baby is also my defect?"
Derby has suspected this matter for a long time. When Lei Boding took him to see Cheng Chi's first son Ian, he joked that he wanted to be a father too. Derby at that time was shy and full of expectations. .But time passed day by day, and my stomach was still as flat as before, and the female mermaid who married earlier than me at the same time as me, or even married later than me, had a baby in her stomach, and there was no news about me alone.
Sometimes seeing the happy eyes of those mermaids, Derby felt pain in his heart. He didn't know why he didn't move at all, and he didn't know if Lei Boting was also in a hurry, but he didn't show it to himself. , he didn't know if this was really his own flaw, then how should he and Lei Boding face this blow?
"No, Bibi, can you stop thinking about it?" Looking at the panic-stricken Derby and the teardrops sliding down from the corners of his eyes, Lei Boting felt distressed, hugged Derby and bowed his head to kiss away the somewhat salty tears. "That's because the baby is obedient. He knows that his father wants to live with his Daddy for another period of life with only two people, so he doesn't want to come between us from the Sea God so early. He just wants to let his father and Daddy How sweeter. When we feel that the two of us have had enough, then he will definitely come to us."
"Really?" Although listening to Lei Boding's words was more comforting, Derby subconsciously wanted to believe it.
"Of course it's true." Lei Boding smiled and pinched Derby's nose, "You know, I never lie to you."
Derby sniffed, then smiled, nodded, and said in a nasal voice, "Yeah."
The conversation that day was like a breeze blowing across the water, leaving no trace after a burst of ripples, but Lei Boding finally understood how much psychological pressure Derby was under, and he subconsciously began to care more about Derby, and his words were intentional. Inadvertently started to decompress Derby.Fortunately, with his efforts, the smiles on Derby's face gradually began to increase.
Originally, according to this situation, Lei Boding didn't really want to leave Derby's side, but his performance these days was too in line with the standard of a "Jie Qing", how could Chas not take him out to show off, so In the end, he had no choice but to set off with the big team.
"I've already said hello to Oz and the others. If you have anything to do, you can go to them." Before setting off, Lei Boding began to tell the Derby, "I will also call Ralph, Ivor's father, and Daddy." Good hello, if you don’t like to stay at home to eat alone, go to their house, more people will be more lively..."
For the first time, Derby discovered that Lei Boding, who never does things in a muddy manner, can talk like an old lady, but this kind of chattering is very useful to him. He reached out and touched Lei Boting's face, "I know, you Come on, they are waiting for you."
Lei Boting pressed Derby's hand on his face, knowing that he could not go any further, so he leaned over and kissed Derby's brow, "I will be back soon, take care of yourself, I love you .”
Derby kissed back on the corner of Lei Boting's mouth, "Understood, I love you too."
"Hey, hey, you and Derby are so sweet that it makes me feel nauseous." Seeing Lei Boding finally say goodbye to Derby and return to the big team, Ivor rubbed his arm and winked.
Lei Boting rolled his eyes at Ivor, "Hey, each other, I don't know who just held Ozzy like an octopus!"
"Who, who!" Ivor frowned.
"Who are you talking about?" Lei Boting squinted.
"Hey, okay, stop making trouble, let's go." Seeing that Lei Boding and Ivor were about to quarrel again, Ralph stepped forward to end the battle.
With Ave's interruption, Lei Boding's worries finally faded, and the group of people talked and laughed and swam to another mermaid tribe under the leadership of the patriarch.
