Ye Xingguang took the photo. The boy in the photo was wearing jeans and a short-sleeved white T-shirt. He looked neat, refreshing and handsome, a perfect âheartthrobâ. Compared to his present âuglyâ self, he was simply too naive and youthful!
Ye Xingguang exclaimed, âIs this you when you were younger?â
Seeing her excitement, Night Lordâs deep gaze turned gentle, âOf course, who else could it be, Qin Junye?â
âI didnât expect you to be so handsome when you were young.â
Night Lordâs temper completely subsided and he huffed, âNow you know who gave you your name, right?â
âIt was Qin Junye.â
As soon as her words fell, the man gave her a heavy, domineering look: â!!!â
Ye Xingguang was taken aback, her beautiful eyes filled with confusion as she faced his burning anger, and said, âWhatâs the matter? I didnât like my old name, and Qin Junye suggested that maybe we could give me a new one. That night, when we were escaping in the sea, we looked up and saw a shower of starlight. Then Qin Junye said that I might as well be called Ye Xingguang.â
Night Lord took a deep breath, reminding himself to be magnanimous as a man, and not to bicker with a petite mermaid with a memory disorder. Reminding himself that she gave herself to him last night, so he must dote on her repeatedly, but no matter what, he couldnât suppress the anger in his heart. Words seemed to burst from his throat, âXia Qiongqiong, you idiot!â
After saying that, he left in his fury!
If he didnât leave, he wouldnât know if he would get so angry that he would hurt her!
Ye Xingguang was stunned on the spot. What did he just call her?
A few seconds later, she quickly chased after him, âListen, although Iâm a mermaid, Iâm definitely not Xia Qiongqiong. You shouldnât call me that.â
She wanted to hold onto Night Lordâs arm, but he lifted his hand and prevented her from doing so. He looked down at her and angrily said-
âXia Qiongqiong, listen good, ten years ago, at the Crescent Strait, a boy was injured and the smell of his blood attracted a group of sharks. He was on the verge of becoming shark food when a little mermaid bravely swam into the shark group and positioned herself before the boyâ¦â
âThat little mermaid was only twelve years old, yet she was more fearless in the face of danger than the sixteen-year-old boy. She attempted to use her song to scare the sharks away. When the sharks didnât listen, she played her tiny fists and punched a shark. She seemed weak, but her punches were not a joke, she was even better than the boy at fighting, and had a shark run away in fear. Afterwards, the other sharks also ran. While she was beating up the shark, her tail was scratched by a shark tooth about three inches from the left of her backbone, leaving a scar.â
âThe boy, having had a narrow escape from death, asked the little mermaid her name. The little mermaid coolly replied: Donât fall in love with me, itâs not gonna work!â
âAs she was about to leave, the boy chased after her and asked: Are you Xia Qiongqiong?â
âThe little mermaid roared: âI am not Xia Qiongqiong, get lost, and if you donât leave quick enough Iâll cut you down!â
âThen the little mermaid swam away. The boy didnât leave; he followed her. Later, when the little mermaid ran into trouble, he grabbed her hand and escaped with her. During their escape, she still wouldnât tell him her name, so the boy looked up at the night sky and said: âSince you donât want to tell me your name, I will give you one. You are more beautiful than the night stars, so why donât I call you Ye Xingguang?â
