Chapter 62: The Merman

Ge Xiu glanced down at his hand.

The scalding temperature of human body seemed to still remained on the surface of the skin, and the clear different temperature didnt leave for a long time even after the other party released his hand.

He clenched his palms and let his body temperature return to normal.

Rowett turned and walked towards the seat before him.

Ge Xiu raised his head and walked after him.

He asked curiously: So what are the rules? Except the one that I have to live with you?

Rowett sat down again, and raised his eyebrows nonchalantly: There are no rules, and you dont have to live with me, and I dont mind moving in with you if you dont like living with me.

Ge Xiu: ?

Rowett raised the corners of his lips: Your pool is getting expanded, as soon as designer makes some changes, we can discuss those details later.

How is that not the same as living with you.

Ge Xiu rolled his eyes.

He propped his hands on the tabletop and jumped up, shaking his slender calves, and continued to test the bottom line:

Are there any restriction on me? Like, am I not allowed to do something? Or cant ask for something?

Rowett shook his head: No. You can do whatever you want, and ask for whatever you want.

Ge Xiu raised his brows suspiciously: Are you serious?

Of course. Rowett didnt hesitate in the slightest.

Ge Xiu showed a pure smile, but there was a bit of blatant provocation in his expression: Are you having a military meeting? Can I watch it?

Rowett looked at him with a smile: Okay.

Ge Xiu tilted his head: Arent you afraid that Im a military spy?

Rowett looked at him calmly: Are you?

I may be. Ge Xiu narrowed his eyes and said noncommittally.

Rowett smiled, his dark eyes gleaming: Congratulations, you have successfully entered the decision-making level.

He said as he reconnected the communicator.

The faces of the generals and his subordinates once again appeared on the huge screen. Although they were a little confused, they were obviously used to the unpredictability of the Emperor, and so they remained unmoved even after the long time disconnected.

However, they really didnt expect to see one more person beside His Majesty the Emperor after the period of disconnection.

An unfamiliar young man with an astonishing face sat on the table, dangling his legs, looking at the scene in front of him curiously.

The air fell into silence for a while.

Finally, a general who seemed to be high experience and seniority opened his mouth carefully, and asked vaguely: Your Majesty, Your Majesty who is this?

Rowett lifted his eyelids and said lazily, Continue.

Yes, but, this is a high-level confidential meeting

Before the other party finished speaking, Rowett raised his eyes and looked at him, his dark eyes were unpredictable, and he slowly accented every syllable:

continue.

There was not the slightest threat in his voice, but it just send chills all over their bodies.

The general who raised the objection just now shivered all over, he shrank and bowed his head, and then continued to report on the topic from before.

Evidently, this meeting was related to the ongoing expansion war outside the Empire.

The assassin who had previously tried to assassinate the Emperor at the ball was captured alive, and confessed that he was serving an enemy country at war with the Empire. Their royal family had fallen into desperate straits, so they desperately hoped that by killing Rowett they would stop their fall. Obviously, their attempt failed.

Ge Xiu closed his eyes slightly, listening with little interest.

The war on the front lines was obviously beneficial to the Empire, but due to the strong sense of resistance of the opponent, the strong layout of the defense line, and the new weapons in reserve, their advance on the the front line was very slow.

He yawned, and suddenly interrupted the general on the screen:

What about the map?

The general stopped abruptly, gritted his teeth, and resentfully called out the map of the war zone he was in charge of.

Ge Xiu narrowed his eyes and swept his eyes past it, then asked again, What about the real-time satellite images?

The general raised his eyebrows: The enemy country is equipped with advanced shielding devices and the satellite can only photograph the outer layer of the enemys defense line and there is no..

Rowett raised his eyes lightly.

The general shivered, lowered his head again, not daring to speak anymore, and obediently called up the real-time image of the satellites and enlarged it on the screen.

Ge Xiu glanced at the map on the screen, then grabbed a pen on the conference table and jumped off the table.

He walked to the screen, his eyes circled twice between the map and the real-time image, then opened the cap and drew a few circles at random on several areas on the map:

The weak points are here.

He yawned, and rubbed the tears that overflowed from the corners of his eyes.

As if weary of the meeting in front of him, he turned and walked out without hesitation.

While passing by the conference table, Ge Xiu threw the pen back on the table, the metal pen slammed onto the table and made a crisp sound, and rolled away into the distance.

Just before it fell from the edge, the pen was suddenly caught by a slender hand.

Rowett picked up the pen, rubbed it and played with it lightly with his fingers, he narrowed his eyes with interest watching Ge Xius receding back.

The voices of the generals filled with hidden anger came from the screen: Your Majesty

Rowett interrupted him with an unmistakable tyrannical domination in his voice:

Do as he said.

Since His Majesty the Emperor has already spoken, no one dared to object at all.

This military meeting ended hastily.

Rowett stood up and walked towards the outside of the conference room, soon catching up with Ge Xiu, who was walking slowly down the corridor.

He turned his head and asked, What happened? No longer interested?

Ge Xiu shrugged: Your advantages are too obvious. There is basically no suspense in the ending of this war. How boring.

The counterattack in desperate situation and surprise attack when the ammunition and food are exhausted could be a little more interesting.

If in this world, if he was on the side of the opposite country, it would be fun to play, and such an overwhelming victory was really not to his taste.

Rowett smiled: You seem to be very knowledgable, can there be war in the sea?

Ge Xiu raised his eyes and glanced at him, and answered ambiguously: Wherever there is life, there will be war and killing.

Rowetts eyes deepened, he raised his hand and brushed gently through Ge Xius blue-violet hair, and said softly,

You are such a mystery.

Ge Xiu replied with a sneer.

He shook his head, pulled back the hair on his head out of the other persons hand, then yawned, and said without hesitation:

I want to go back to the water.

Rowett raised the corners of his lips: The bathroom extension and the glass house renovation will take some time, if you dont mind, there is a swimming pool on the top floor for me.

Ge Xiu shrugged: Okay.

At this moment, he suddenly stopped and tilted his head and glanced at Rowett, then spread out his slender arms, and said in a natural tone:

Im too lazy to walk.

Rowett was stunned for a moment, then the smile at the corner of his mouth gradually deepened. He stepped forward, bent over and said,

Yes, as you wish.

Ge Xiu was indeed tired.

His feet were not adapted to walking on land for long periods of time, and they were aching now, but this was not the reason why he had to be carried upstairs.

To be precise Ge Xiu was just curious.

He was very curious about what Rowett said: Do what you want, ask about whatever you want, where were the boundaries and restrictions?

Ge Xiu raised his eyes and fixedly stared at the curve of the mans jaw.

The chest pressing against his cheeks was firm and warm. With the breathing it went up and down evenly, he could hear the beating of the heart in the others chest. The body temperature different from the mermaid wrapped around him, and it was warm to the point of being a little hot.

Can watch military conferences, can be ordered with his commands

Other than that, what else can you do?

Ge Xiu blinked, his eyes flashing with interest.

The top floor was sunny.

Without the cover of the top glass, the gentle breeze was flowing, bringing the faint fragrance of tulips, and the golden warm sunlight poured down from above their heads, reflecting on the blue water of the swimming pool, spreading bright glittering sparkles.

The pool was really big, taking up almost half of the top floor.

The water vapour floated in the air with a pleasant humidity.

The rippling water in front of them was irresistible.

especially for a merman.

Ge Xiu broke free of Rowetts arms, threw off his coat and shoes, and threw himself into the pool impatiently.

Rowett rubbed his fingers regretfully, recalling the cold and soft touch of the merman he felt just now, and couldnt help but regret that he didnt walk any slower.

Rrrip

An ear-piercing sound of tearing fabric sounded, and the blue-purple fishtail broke through the clothes and was dyed with a layer of splashing water, flashing with a metallic lustre under the sun.

Ge Xiu turned his head to look at his fishtail, only to realize that he had broken another pair of pants.

He looked at Rowett who was standing by the swimming pool, and said in a low voice,

I forgot.

Rowett laughed: Ill have someone send you another set later.

Ge Xiu was relieved.

He raised his hand and undid the hairband on his head, and threw it ashore together with the broken clothes floating on the water. The long wet blue-purple hair spread out on his shoulders and floated in the water.

Ge Xiu plunged his head into the water, and a few seconds later surfaced with his head at the other end of the pool.

Rowett narrowed his eyes, watching the merman from the distance.

The dazzling sunlight fell on his body, outlining his thin shoulders and slender arms, and the incurved lines of the spine gracefully ended under the water surface. In the blue rippling water waves, his complexion became more and more white, almost as if shining brightly.

His Adams apple moved, and there was a indistinct light in his eyes.

Rowett raised his hand, slowly unbuttoned the buttons one by one, and the shirt placket gradually opened, revealing a clear-lined and muscular chest.

Ge Xiu already came back a good swim.

He raised his hand and pulled back the hair on his forehead, and was stunned when he saw Rowett: What are you doing?

Swimming. Rowett replied without changing his face.

Ge Xiu blinked, and didnt respond for a while.

Rowett threw his shirt aside, made a gesture to the attendant in the distance, and then strode towards the locker room, before turning around, he gave Ge Xiu a slight smile: This is my swimming pool too, isnt it?

Bamboo has something to say:

These chapters feel very fulfilling even if nothing much is happening. Lets applaud the relationship progress
