The King's Game

Chapter 87 – [Mermaid V]

After reading the new information on his mobile phone, Gu Huai apologetically gestured to his agent who was still waiting for him to answer, and then replied quickly with a message.

“Now?”

Towards noon, the timing was a bit awkward, but Gu Huai did feel a little hungry. If the request was now, he would have to find a place nearby to eat lunch.

At this time, in a classically decorated hall, Ao Qi first glanced at his boss, who was still struggling with the Sansheng mirror, he was completely ignoring him, Ao Qi lowered his head and continued to type on his cell phone.

“Well, where are you? I’ll pick you up now. How about having a meal together, since it’s your help, I’ll take care of the bill.” After sending the message, Ao Qi smiled as he waited for a reply. From his expression, he was in a pretty good mood.

If the love of beauty was shared by everyone, then the beautiful youth would be favoured by people. This kind of affection was not necessarily love, like Ao Qi’s love for the youth he had only met once was only appreciation of something beautiful.

In addition to appearance, the silver fish tail and the body shape of the youth was also very beautiful. Silver, shiny and bright. Their race liked the beautiful treasures in such gorgeous colors.

Ao Qi was sure that if anyone from his race met the young man, every one of them would like him except.....

“Boss, I’m out. I’ll get the work done tonight.” It was not until the man with cold eyes stopped and injected his energy into the Sansheng mirror that Ao Ai approached and whispered to him.

Yan Lin rubbed the raised secret lines on the edge of Sansheng mirror with his index finger. He didn’t deny what his subordinate said, he just lowered his eyes and glanced at him indifferently.

That was him expressing his consent, and Ao Qi immediately understood, but instead of immediately leaving, he asked again carefully and hesitantly, “The little fish I met last time was really beautiful, completely in line with our racial aesthetic, Boss, you don’t want to think about it, er...... To try?”

The reason why Ao Qi could say this was because he could’t see his boss, who had been looking for someone with a mirror for so many years and still couldn’t find him. He had been with him for thousands of years, but had seen that the boss had no intention of giving up at all, and every once in a while he would injected his energy into the Sansheng mirror, repeatedly looking for it.

But if one couldn’t find the person he was thinking about, then usually there was only one possibility, that person didn’t exist at all in the three realms and six realms, the person was completely dead.

Can you see that our eldest brother has been a bachelor for so many years, that is to say, he has been pure of heart and lust for so many years.

Looking at his boss who had been a bachelor for so many years, that was, he had been pure of heart and body for so many year, in his family, it was a sad sight that brought tears to his eyes.

“Again, I don’t want to repeat myself for the third time.” Yan Lin spoke with a cold voice and simply rejected his subordinate’s statement.

Once again, Ao Qi woild have to shut up and leave, and if he persisted, he would end up with injuries.

It was gonna take a long time to draw the beauty to the boss.

Not far away, Ao Qi quickly drove to the location the man gave, and he was stunned as soon as he saw him.

Nightmare......Clan?

Seeing several dark clouds were floating around the youth, Ao Qi rubbed his eyes, confirming that it was not an illusion.

What the...... It wasn’t the same situation when he saw him the last time, it was only two days ago, and mow this kind of strange situation happened.

Ao Qi saw the dark fog, and at the same time, the latter naturally saw him. This invisible, dark cloud gave him a look, or rather surveyed him, which, in any case, left him on guard.

“What’s wrong?” Gu Huai looked at the expression on the man’s face, he seemed slightly different, and he didn’t understand the change so he could not help but ask.

“No......Nothing.” After holding his breath for a few seconds, Ao Qi shook his head and changed his expression, “Where do you want to eat?”

“It’s your treat, of course you decide.” Gu Huai answered with a smile, but even if the man didn’t mention the money he owed and he only said that he should help him familiarize with the environment, Gu Huai would hav still agreed, and would be polite.

Listening to the young man, Mr. Ao has no further response, choosing a nearby, well known restaurant, a common destination for many high ranked officials in C city.

“Whatever. You’re welcome.” In the private setting, Ao Qi first pushed the menu to the youth sitting opposite him, and when he did that, he intuitively felt that the dark fog swirling around the youth slightly diminish.

It was so weird...... He was not afraid of them, and now they had not integrated with the youth, and he could win. It was just that he would suffer a little because of the special nature of the nightmare race.

He didn’t understand why these Nightmares were following the young man like his parents, he seemed to have no idea.

It was reasonable to say that non-human beings had celestial eyes, and nature could see them. However, Ao Qi inspected the youth sitting opposite him, and found that he was still in a closed state even though he had awoken his bloodline.

The price list on the menu made Gu Huai, who was still a poor person for the time being, show a painful expression. The man opposite him said, “Just relax,”

Gu Huai did not say a word. Only after asking of the othe’s taste, he ordered enough food for both of them.

After the dishes were ready, during the meal, Ao Qi pretended to accidentally spill his tea and went to the bathroom. Not surprisingly, two black clouds followed him.

In front of the platform, Ao Qi and the two black fog, silently faced each other, and after a few seconds of silence, the former reluctantly raised his hand in a surrender.

“I don’t mean anything bad.”Ao Qi felt as if he was being treated as a bad person by the nightmares, but it was even more suspicious that he was with youth for no reason.

In order to strengthen his persuasion, Ao Qi could only make a difficult explanation after finishing the words he just said, “I met him earlier than you did, and if I have any bad ideas, I could do it before this, not just today.”

The two clouds of darkness did not give him any response, and Ao Qi predicted that, after all, the Nightmare clan were a lonely and indifferent group that had never allied with any other ethnic clan. But it seemed to agree with his explanation, the two clouds of black fog floated back to the young.

Back at the table, Ao Qi was in a good mood, but he didn’t move his chopsticks much, just enjoyed staring at the beauty across him.

He was a small fish that had awakened not long ago, but he couldn’t even see his exact bloodline. Ao Qi was sure he was definitely not a nightmare, but how were the two connected?

Without knowing the details, Ao Qi was not going to reveal his identity to the youth so he would continue to think he was a normal person.

As for the nightmares.....

It could be seen that these nightmares had truly innocent intentions towards the youth, seeing their protectiveness, Ao Qi had no intention of intervening.

But there was one thing he had to do today.

His appreciation of the youth’s beauty was noticed, the young man looked at him with questions in his eyes.

“Can I take a picture of you later?” Ao Qi asked with an earnest expression, although he had previously said he would secretly take a photo for his boss, he preferred to ask for the youth’s consent first.

Gu Huai nodded and said it was not a big request, and Gu Huai did not believe that he would do anything bad with this photo, after all, he had countless better opportunities to do evil before this.

Ya Jian had an antique layout, they didn’t need to go anywhere. It was a nice place to take pictures.

The photographer didn’t mention any posture requirements, so Gu Huai stood casually in front of the wooden window, with a relaxed face, and smiling eyes.

After successfully using his mobile phone to take the photo, Ao Qi repeatedly looked at the photo and confirmed that his angle was perfect before he saved it happily.

When he went back tonight, even if he was stabbed with a knife, he had to make his boss look at the beautiful fish.
