Chapter 74
This is a female mermaid with a blue and white tail.
She lay very still on the bed.
Soft light blue long hair covered the entire bed.
The long eyelashes trembled slightly, and don't know what dreamed.
The sunlight through the windows is scattered in the room, supporting everything like a texture in a painting.
Bai Yu's eyes turned around the room.
He saw many things that did not correspond to this place of residence.
Just one door away.
The rooms other than the bedroom are not only old, but also look like they have not been taken care of carefully, and the light is even more dim.
The overall style is exactly the same as this building, and it feels like an ordinary bachelor who has "precipitated over time".
But in this bedroom...
Everything here looks very clean and tidy, in a style that merfolk would love.
Just opening the closet was filled with many very popular mermaid costumes that were once popular.
This mermaid named Xiaolanhua is lying on the bed.
Bai Yu heard from Ban Shan that he had been in a coma for half a month.
But the little orchid lying here looks very good, and it doesn't feel like it has been lying there for half a month without anyone taking care of it.
It was as if she had just fallen asleep.
Originally, Banshan gave Bai Yu the feeling that he was a man who had conflicts with his family and was not very good at taking care of himself when he went out alone.
But after seeing the mermaid lying here safely.
Bai Yu felt that Ban Shan might not be very good at taking care of himself, but he still cared about his mermaid.
"I'm not worried about leaving her alone here for too long, but I'm also not worried about finding someone else to take care of her now, so I'm a little rushed on the road..."
For today's life, Banshan is obviously feeling overwhelmed.
Xu Shi had already shown Bai Yu and Ji Peilin his worst appearance, and Ban Shan no longer wore his last good clothes all the time. He put away the remaining good clothes while talking, and put them on for himself A very ordinary coat.
Grabbing the hair a couple more times, combing the beautiful hairstyle can no longer maintain the previous appearance, and then it is scattered.
The originally mature and handsome adult man suddenly lost a bit of taste.
At this time, Ban Shan looked like a very ordinary adult man.
He once again briefly told Bai Yu and Ji Peilin about Xiao Lanhua's current state, the things he had said more than once since meeting Ji Peilin.
As he spoke, he brought some water.
It's just that the water was not used to entertain guests, but was used by him to moisten little orchid's lips.
Little Lanhua, who was frowning tightly, subconsciously relaxed a lot after Ban Shan approached.
However, these are of little help to small orchids.
Ban Shan put his hand on Xiao Lanhua's forehead, his face showing a frustrated look.
"...I'm really a failed adult, right? It seems that after leaving the family, I can only achieve nothing.
"I can't even maintain the most basic decency... Maybe I should let Xiao Lanhua go?
"I really don't know what to do, so I went to Mr. Ji, and I hope to get some help from Mr. Ji."
I have searched for all the mermaid doctors could find.
It was impossible for him to let Xiao Lanhua down in this state.
Facing Xiao Lanhua whose situation has not improved, for the first time in his life, Ban Shan truly understands what it means to be powerless.
Ji Peilin came to Xiaolanhua.
In fact, many questions are unnecessary.
I asked all the questions on the way here.
Ji Peilin was sure of the situation the first time he saw the little orchid.
The current situation of Xiao Lanhua is exactly the same as that of Bai Yu when he had a fever and fell asleep.
If had to say something different...
Bai Yu's fever lasted for a period of time and then he got better. After that, he was still lethargic, but his condition has been very stable.
But the situation of the little orchid in front of him is not like this.
"Has she always had a fever?"
"Yes, she has been having a fever. No matter how many methods you use, there is no way to lower her temperature." Banshan said, "Only occasionally when I am with her, it can get better for a while."
Bai Yu also approached Xiaolanhua.
Bai Yu's approach made Ban Shan glance at him subconsciously.
As a breeder of little orchids, Ban Shan certainly would not let others get close to little orchids at will.
Especially the little orchid in this state.
But for some reason, when he saw Bai Yu, he had a strange feeling.
He didn't know how to describe it, but he subconsciously thought that it had nothing to do with letting Bai Yu get close to Xiaolanhua.
Bai Yu reached out his hand and placed it on Xiao Lanhua's forehead.
Little Orchid's forehead is very hot.
But when Bai Yu put his hand on her forehead, there was a soothing expression on Xiao Lanhua's face.
This is something even Ban Shan can't do.
It's a pity that Bai Yu didn't let his hand rest on Xiao Lanhua's forehead for too long.
With Ban Shan's hesitant expression, he said, "Mr. Ban Shan, can you tell us the story between you and Little Lanhua?"
On the way here, hurry up and hurry. Ban Shan has read Xiao Lanhua's current state many times, but he has never mentioned the story between him and Xiao Lanhua.
Ban Shan opened his mouth, "...Actually, there's nothing to say."
Although it started with such words, Ban Shan briefly told Bai Yu and Ji Peilin the story between him and Xiao Lanhua.
There is nothing special about the story between them.
Little Orchid is an artificially bred mermaid.
Just like most humans, when he first came into contact with the little orchid, Ban Shan also regarded the little orchid as very fragile.
Humans have an inherent impression of mermaids, and always feel that mermaids will die at any time.
But after the real in-depth contact, Ban Shan felt that his little orchid was different from other mermaids.
Little orchids have their own preferences, as well as their own gentle and considerate ways.
Unlike those mermaids who don't talk much to their keepers, Little Orchid will take the initiative to talk to Ban Shan.
Although there is not much to say, the little orchid is really very gentle...
"She was so vivid to me..."
Ban Shan said this, with a smile on his face involuntarily.
Bansan had heard about humans falling in love with mermaids.
Especially in recent years, this kind of thing has happened more than once or twice.
No matter how much human beings love the beauty and singing voice of mermaids, they are two different races, plus the natural "arrogance" of human beings.
Therefore, the matter of humans and merman being together, every time it is exposed, it will always cause heated discussions on the Internet.
Just like some extreme people think that humans "trapped" the mermaid and persistently want to release the mermaid.
There are also some people who think that humans and mermaids are different and should not be together.
And as the number of humans and mermen together increases, so does the debate.
"Do you remember the stars?"
Bai Yu didn't expect to hear the name of Xingxing again here.
Ban Shan, who mentioned the stars, said, "I know Shixuan, and he has an objection to humans and merman being together.
"I don't know what happened between him and Xingxing, but... I know Xingxing likes him very much. Xingxing's death has a lot to do with his rejection of Xingxing's love and his subsequent behavior."
Bai Yu: "..."
Shixuan had invited him to a video call before his death.
At that time, Bai Yu had a guess about it.
This time it was finally confirmed from another person's mouth.
really……
The star who is a merman falls in love with a human who doesn't think humans and mermen can be together.
Only after the stars die...
Shi Xuan's performance doesn't seem to dislike Xing Xing at all.
Ban Shan continued, "I think it's quite normal for me to like Xiaolanhua."
His expression was slightly mocking, "In such a family, only Little Lanhua is the only sincere existence.
"Only Little Orchid can understand what I want.
"Only Little Orchid...will be happy for my happiness and unhappy for my unhappiness.
"but……"
There is always a but in everything.
Banshan doesn't like his family.
The former Banshan was also a valued one in his own family.
But later, as if he lost his fighting spirit, he gradually moved away from the core of the family and became a "waste" in the family.
There will be some "waste" in every flourishing family, and "waste" will also have the value of "waste".
Ban Shan's love for little orchids was discovered by his family.
This matter was of course objected.
His family arranged for him the path he should take in the future, including who he should marry.
If Ban Shan is willing to follow the path arranged by the family, it is not impossible to accommodate a mermaid he loves.
As long as Banshan is "well-behaved" enough.
But Banshan himself was unwilling.
"I have never been a person with such a firm heart. I was born in such a family, but I actually don't think those arrangements are unacceptable.
"But I'm terrified...
"I'm afraid that if I follow the path arranged by the family, what will happen to my little orchid like a star?"
He has also seen the scene of Xing Xing hitting himself to death.
Just imagining such a situation made his blood freeze.
So Banshan plucked up the courage to resist, and then left his original life with his mermaid.
And now that he has been "trash" for so many years, it is almost impossible to take care of his mermaid according to the original level.
No one of his few "friends" dared to stand up and help him after knowing the conflict between him and his family;
He can't find a job that suits his heart and pays well;
He felt really useless and made everything suck.
Although he has given Xiao Lanhua everything he can give now, compared with his original life, he can only say that there is one sky and one earth.
And on such a day, Xiaolanhua also had such a problem.
Those top mermaid doctors were invited by him with the original friendship.
He also thought about going back and admitting his mistakes and asking for help, but he knew what would happen if he went home and admitted his mistakes.
He knows his little orchid.
After listening to the story of Ban Shan and Xiao Lanhua, Bai Yu turned to look at him.
Bai Yu's line of sight is very simple, just "seeing".
But such a sight made Ban Shan feel as if he had been seen through.
"Are you optimistic about the future of you and Xiao Lanhua?" Bai Yu asked.
Ban Shan, who deflected his eyes to one side, turned his eyes back again.
He didn't answer immediately, but Bai Yu said, "You don't seem to be optimistic about the future of you and Xiao Lanhua."
Bai Yu asked again, "Then do you have any ideas for your future?"
Ban Shan: "..."
Of course, this is not the first time Ban Shan has faced such a problem.
It's just that the answer this time is different from every time he has before.
"I don't know." Banshan said, "I don't have any specific vision for my future. I just hope that in my future... Little Orchid will always be there."
Humans are very variable creatures.
At least Ban Shan, who said these words at this moment, was completely sincere.
Bai Yu glanced at Ji Peilin.
Ji Peilin smiled and stroked Baiyu's long hair: "No matter what you do, I'll be there."
Ji Peilin's words reassured Bai Yu.
No matter what he does, Ji Peilin will help him figure it out.
So Bai Yu looked down at the sleeping little orchid and raised the corners of his lips slightly.
"I'm sorry, we outsiders may not be able to provide any effective help for the current state of the little orchid.
"But I have a very useful piece of advice for you."
"What is it?" Ban Shan, who didn't know what to do, immediately asked, and he didn't care that the people who said this kept counting Peilin.
Bai Yu's own words have a feeling of trust.
"Have more confidence in the future between you and Xiao Lanhua." Bai Yu tilted her head, "Don't be too desperate, believe in yourself and Xiao Lanhua. She is in a very special state now, and she needs your help. Enough power from within."
