Gu Mengmeng tapped her finger rhythmically on Elvis’ arm. This was a sign of her being in deep thought.

Actually, Elvis and Lea would have countless ways to resolve such a small matter. Although the stage of this incident was set in the ocean which might present some unexpected scenarios—forcing a person to hand over something was something that Elvis and Lea were all too good at.

Nevertheless, they kept silent and waited for their woman to think up of a solution herself. A solution which perhaps would not involve anything too preposterous or involve a long roundabout route. They would allow her to try out her method—and then even if it completely failed, they would be there to support her.

Yeah, the true value of a male was his ability to clean up any mess created by their female.

Ah, they really missed the days when she was a big bully.

In saying so, they did kind of missed Nina.

Gu Mengmeng suddenly stopped tapping her finger. A sly smile played across her lips. “Since it is so difficult to find a certain mermaid in the great ocean, why don’t we have this mermaid seek us out on her own.”

Fei Rui tilted his head as his bright eyes were filled with confusion.

Gu Mengmeng chuckled. “The Mermaid Tribe’s Dora has found the treasure needed by the Messenger of the Beast Deity. She will get a wish granted as long as she can hand it over to me…”

Lea and Elvis exchanged a smile. How come their female still looked so adorable even when she was defrauding someone?

The slyness in her eyes was so naughty. But also very alluring.

Fei Rui didn’t understand Gu Mengmeng’s plan and shook his head. “Dora did steal the Giant Fish Tribe’s treasure but it is not the Kiss of the Ocean.”

Gu Mengmeng was tickled by Fei Rui’s naivety. She shook her head in exasperation. “You are truly just a child. The intrigues of the adult world are not suitable for you. Just leave this type of trickery to me, and wait for Dora to send over the item. You can then use it to exchange for your sister.”

Fei Rui still didn’t understand Gu Mengmeng’s plan but he felt that the three persons before him held a certain kind of power. Her word alone was convincing and did not require any proof.

Gu Mengmeng went over the plan a few times in her mind to sort out the logistics. She then stretched lazily and gazed at Fei Rui. “Is it alright for you to leave the water for such a long period?”

Fei Rui blinked and nodded. “Actually, I do feel rather uncomfortable…”

Gu Mengmeng said, “Why don’t you go back to the well first to soak in the waters?”

Fei Rui’s eyes brightened with anticipation. “Can I?”

Lea objected. “No!”

Gu Mengmeng, “…”

Lea shot Gu Mengmeng a rebuking look and she tactfully shut her mouth.

What a joke. If the brimming jealousy of her two males bubbled over… haha, Fei Rui would become fish food.

Lea said, “The well is the water source for our entire tribe. Do you want everyone in the tribe to be drinking your bathwater? You better go back to the sea and wait for news. We will notify you when Dora comes knocking on our door.”

Fei Rui’s eyes dimmed as conflict washed over his plump, little face. He looked just like a child who was being bullied. Biting his lower lip, he said, “I won’t go into the well. It’s okay if I don’t soak in water. I… I will wait for you all to return to the sea with me.”

“Return to the sea with you?” Lea snorted. “You are thinking too much. When Dora hands over the item, you will bring the Kiss of the Ocean to exchange for it. Leave the Kiss of the Ocean here and take back the Giant Fish Tribe’s treasure to save your sister. It will be a clean one-for-one exchange and we will not owe each other anything.”
