Chapter 289 The Silly and Sweet Mermaid Story (19)
Zhang Chong was a little stunned when he saw that Lou Shuhan didn't look nervous at all. He then asked, "Lou Shuhan, where is the mermaid? Where is the mermaid? Where did you find the mermaid? And how is your research progress?"
When Zhang Chong said this, his eyes were full of anticipation and excitement.
There are actually mermaids in the world!
Not only Zhang Chong, but also the others present were staring at Lou Shuhan, as if they wanted to see through him, their eyes full of greed.
Lou Shuhan still maintained a nonchalant attitude and said calmly, "I don't know what you are talking about. Director Zhang, did you misunderstand? How could there be such a ridiculous species as mermaids?"
Lou Shuhan was not panicked at all. Even if Zhang He was facing him face to face, he was not afraid.
The Jiang Zui that Zhang He saw had a fish tail, but Jiang Zui was already an adult.
He once examined Jiang Zui's body which had transformed into legs and it was almost identical to that of a human.
If he had not witnessed with his own eyes Jiang Zui's fish tail turning into legs, he would have thought that Jiang Zui was a human being.
"Lou Shuhan, I urge you to tell the truth.
Don't worry, as long as you tell us the whereabouts of the mermaid, we will naturally not make things difficult for you, and we will continue to support your research. By then, you can no longer conduct research secretly."
After a pause, he continued, “Your research progress has been seen by other researchers and has been confirmed.
Lou Shuhan, you are the first person to study mermaids. You know more about mermaids than anyone else. Mermaids can delay aging and can even be used as medicine.
If you continue your research, you may be able to extend human life expectancy.
What a great discovery this is!
Lou Shuhan, if you know what's best for you, cooperate as soon as possible."
Zhang Chong's words were filled with threats and inducements.
Unfortunately, Lou Shuhan doesn't care at all.
He has seen many cases of people being forced to leave after their work has been done.
Even if he figured it out, so what? !
But this also pushed oneself into the abyss.
If humans knew that mermaids could greatly increase human lifespan and even had so many benefits, he, as a mermaid researcher, would be standing in the center of the storm, with countless conspiracies and assassinations targeting him.
Is he stupid?!
What's more, he now likes Jiang Zui. Although Jiang Zui seldom tells him about the mermaids, he knows very well that Jiang Zui has deep feelings for them.
For Jiang Zui, he would not conduct this research.
Jiang Zui watched the conversation between Lou Shuhan and Zhang Chong silently, with darkness in his eyes.
Bullying his wife?!
I have to ask him if he agrees or not? !
Jiang Zui opened his mouth and was about to speak, but Lou Shuhan spoke first, "I want to ask a question, who is the informant?"
In fact, Lou Shuhan saw that Jiang Zui wanted to talk, so he casually asked a question in order to weaken Jiang Zui's presence.
Zhang Chong raised his eyebrows and said, "This... I think you should know, right? Your junior fellow apprentice Zhang He."
Zhang Chong thought that someone like Lou Shuhan should know who leaked the news. What's more, he learned from Zhang He that besides Lou Shuhan himself, he was the only one who knew about the mermaid.
As expected, Zhang Chong did not see any surprise on Lou Shuhan's face.
"Oh." Lou Shuhan said lightly.
"Aren't you surprised?" Zhang Chong couldn't help but ask.
Lou Shuhan glanced at Zhang Chong and said calmly, "I can guess it."
"Hahaha." Zhang Chong laughed and said, "Mr. Lou, you are so smart, you should know how to do it...to be better for yourself, right?"
After saying that, Zhang Chong glanced casually and happened to see Jiang Zui sitting next to Lou Shuhan. His heart skipped a beat and he frowned with a cold expression, thinking to himself:
According to information, Lou Shuhan does not like to make friends and has almost no friends.
At this moment, he saw Lou Shuhan's right hand tightly holding the man's hand, and the two looked very close.
Zhang Chong turned his gaze to Jiang Zui and asked, "Excuse me, are you Mr. Lou's..."
Before Zhang Chong finished asking, Jiang Zui replied with a smile: "I am Lou Shuhan's husband."
"Husband?!" Zhang Chong was stunned when he heard Jiang Zui's words. He immediately looked at Lou Shuhan with questioning eyes.
Lou Shuhan coughed and said, "Yeah."
"What's your name? Where are you from? Where do you live now? How old are you?" Zhang Chong asked Jiang Zui a series of questions.
The more Lou Shuhan listened, the more flustered he became, and he couldn't help but hold Jiang Zui's hand tightly.
Zhang Chong asked him, and he was fine. But when he asked Jiang Zui, Jiang Zui was a mermaid, so how could he know that people's hearts were sinister.
Jiang Zui seemed to be unaware of fear and said, "My name is Jiang Zui. I live with my wife now. I used to live on the island. I just came of age."
There was absolutely nothing wrong with Jiang Zui's answer.
There are many small islands around Hai City, and these islands are unnamed, so it is not surprising that Jiang Zui said his home is on an island.
However, when the people present heard that Jiang Zui had just come of age, they immediately looked at Lou Shuhan with contempt in their eyes.
Depend on!
Lou Shuhan is almost twenty years old, but he actually kidnapped a young man who had just reached adulthood.
What a sin!
Lou Shuhan curled the corners of his mouth, and the expression on his face was a little difficult to describe.
Jiang Zui's words obviously made this group of people think in the wrong direction.
On second thought, who could have guessed that the well-behaved boy sitting opposite me was a mermaid? !
But...the looks from this group of people were a little too much for him to bear.
He is so wronged!
Although Jiang Zui has just reached adulthood, he is already a hundred years old.
How much older than him!
It’s a pity that only Lou Shuhan himself knows his pain and he cannot express it in words.
"Jiang Zui, how did you and Lou...Lou Shuhan know each other?" Zhang Chong asked with worry in his eyes.
"On the sea." Jiang Zui recalled his first encounter with Lou Shuhan, his brows full of joy, and he said tirelessly: "You don't know, my wife was in danger on the sea at that time, and I happened to save her. After that, she brought me to Haishi."
After saying that, everyone's attitude towards Lou Shuhan became even worse, and they all speculated that Lou Shuhan was attracted to Jiang Zui's face.
Zhang Chong tempted, "Have you ever seen a mermaid?"
"Mermaid?" Jiang Zui thought for a long time and said, "I have seen it before."
These two words instantly brightened the eyes of everyone present. On the contrary, Lou Shuhan's face was full of frustration.
Ahhhhh——
Silly mermaid!
Jiang Zui, you are such a fool!
Lou Shuhan suddenly felt an urge to beat Jiang Zui up.
Cast yourself in the net!
Depend on!
Seeing that Jiang Zui actually knew about the mermaid, Zhang Chong hurriedly asked, "Where did you see the mermaid? Where is Lou Shuhan hiding the mermaid now?"
"Hide?! Why would my wife want to hide?" Jiang Zui asked puzzledly: "In the aquarium! My wife and I just went to the aquarium today, and there were so many mermaids in it."
Lou Shuhan once took Jiang Zui to an aquarium, where there was a special mermaid show.
At that time, Jiang Zui was a little jealous and said, "Wife, you are not allowed to look at other people's tails. If you want to look, look at mine."
"Okay, okay, okay." Lou Shuhan replied happily: "These are all fake, only you are real."
Hearing this, Jiang Zui was very happy.
He kissed Lou Shuhan on the face on the spot as a reward.
When Lou Shuhan heard this, he also remembered this incident. The anger in his heart instantly dissipated, and was replaced by joy.
Zhang Chong and others were very disappointed.
Lou Shuhan said coldly, "Director Zhang, you have finished your questions. Can we go now?"
"Sorry." Zhang Chong refused: "You...can't leave now."
