Chapter 217: Leisure Time
The image flashed by, like a meteor streaking across the night sky, leaving no trace at all. Ah Da tried hard to remember, but unfortunately, there was nothing.
"What’s wrong?"
Qin Yu walked over and squatted down, placing his palm on her head to stroke her dark, soft hair, his eyes intent on Ah Da who lay motionless on the couch, lost in her own world.
Ah Da turned to look at Qin Yu. Her delicate brows furrowed slightly and her eyes were filled with sadness, her voice slightly hoarse, she murmured, "Qin Yu, after watching the mermaid performance, I remembered something. They were such strange images, the moonlight was very bright, deep under the sea, there was a group of Merfolk gathering together. They were singing and dancing, holding pearls as if in prayer..."
Qin Yu said nothing, listening quietly.
Ah Da’s long lashes cast downward, her expression somewhat sorrowful, "I’m wondering, if I once had many of my kind, where did they go? Did they all die?"
And her family. Did she have a family?
Qin Yu gazed at her for a while before suddenly lifting her into his lap, "Things from so long ago, no one knows for sure, and no one can change them."
"Besides, how do you know there are no more of your kind now? Maybe in some corner of the world, there are still Merfolk, just that you’re unaware. The world has records of creatures with human heads and fish tails, in Z country they call them Merfolk, and in foreign countries they’re called mermaids, which shows they appeared in many places."
"As for your family..." Qin Yu tapped her forehead and then pinched her cheek, his dark eyes filled with undissolvable tenderness, "Let’s look for them together, after all, I don’t want any regrets at our future wedding."
