Chapter 2374 Reality
Several days had passed since he saw another side of Jinse.

But since Jinse didn't mention it, Shanzhe also started to act like a coward.

Avoiding a direct confrontation with Jinse.
Shan Zhe only thought about "covering up the truth".

Everyone be well.

……

but……

Nightmares for several consecutive days reminded him that this was not possible.

He couldn't go on like this.

Jinse...

Now, whenever he thought of this name, he no longer felt a heart full of love, but only panic and fear.

He didn't want to see the other person.

But I don’t even dare to go home late.

Because Jinse will be angry.

……

He was like a worm caught in a spider's web.

His body was entangled in layers of spider silk.

Unable to move.

Powerless to struggle.

Because, the powerful predator... is right in front of him.

……

"You don't like this..."

The mermaid frowned slightly.

Then his brows relaxed.

"I will never appear in front of you like this again."

"That's good-"

"not good!"

Shan Zhe's voice was sharp.

He gasped for air.

He just glanced at Jinse and then looked away.

"Even if you always stay like that, I'm still going to break up with you!"

……

"why?"

The mermaid was puzzled.

Obviously, Shan Zhe has always liked her human appearance.

"you will not……"

"You like-"

"I do not like you!"

Shan Zhe yelled.

"I-"

"You said you liked me."

The mermaid's voice was still sweet and melodious, like the calm surface of the water without too many waves.

"Many times."

"You gave me flowers..."

"Many times."

"besides-"

"shut up!"

Shan Zhe clutched his clothes tightly on his chest.

"Hu Chi... Hu Chi..."

"Yes……"

"I gave you flowers, I gave you perfume, I gave you many gifts..."

"I even let you live in my house..."

"Do not."

Shan Zhe shook his head, "You were the one who appeared in my bathtub at the beginning..."

That day, he found a mermaid in the bathtub of his bathroom.

Just like what is depicted in fairy tales.

The mermaid has a beautiful face.

Has a beautiful big tail.

With a singing voice.

……

He was dumbstruck.

There was undisguised amazement in his eyes and on his face.

beautiful.

I don’t know if it’s the refraction of water under the light, but in his eyes, the mermaid seemed to be glowing all over.

He thought...the mermaid from the fairy tale appeared in front of him.

……

Fairy tales are beautiful.

In his eyes, mermaids are also beautiful.

He quickly accepted the mermaid's presence.

Even if the other party told him that she was a monster.

After knowing that the other party had nowhere to go and could not leave the water for a long time, he invited the other party to stay in his house temporarily with almost surprise and trepidation.

The other party agreed.

He was overjoyed.

Everything that happened afterwards was like something out of a fairy tale.
He and Jinse fell in love with each other over time.

Jinse is the name of the mermaid.

This also made him realize that Jinse was not a mermaid. Because how could such an ancient name be a mermaid in Western fairy tales?
But he still regarded Jinse as a mermaid in his heart.

……

That time was so beautiful that it seemed unreal.

He seemed to have become the lucky silly boy protagonist in the story.

I actually have such a perfect girlfriend.

His girlfriend is a mermaid.

He once posted a few ambiguous remarks in a space he hadn't visited for a long time.

The few messages all asked whether he was missing his girlfriend so much that he was going crazy.

……

Adong even teased him in person about this.

He felt bad.

Knowing that he has such an outstanding girlfriend, he wants to tell the world that Jinse is his girlfriend, but... he can't.

No.

It's him who can't do it.

Yes.

Jinse told him at the beginning.

Jinse is a monster.

Except for special people, most people cannot see it.

If he didn't want to be surrounded by strange looks, it would be better not to tell others about its existence.

……

He was still somewhat unwilling.

But after trying a few times, he had to accept the fact.

Jinse is right.

Apart from him, no one else can see Jinse.

……

This is special...

It's not like he hadn't been secretly happy before.

Jinse belongs to him alone.

Only he can see Jinse...

……

However, as time goes by...

Some problems gradually emerged.
He is nearly thirty years old.

Now he is considered successful in his career.

The job is stable and the salary is decent.

His parents kept asking him questions about his girlfriend.

Urge him to find a suitable partner and get married.

This way the two old people can feel relieved.

He actually couldn't bear to hear this.

Things like marriage depend on fate and cannot be rushed.

He's fine being alone now.

Besides, he is not alone now.

He has a girlfriend.

Such a beautiful girlfriend.

She is not at all squeamish like a pretty girl and is very nice to him.

The cooking is delicious and the housework is also good
When it comes to his girlfriend's strengths, he can talk about them for a whole day.

However, his girlfriend is great in every way, but there is one thing that is not good.
His girlfriend is not human.

It doesn't matter if he's not a human being.

His girlfriend is still invisible to everyone except him.

That.
How does he make people believe that he has a girlfriend?

Sometimes when he’s annoyed by his parents’ words, he’ll say that he has a girlfriend.

But when his parents asked him to bring his girlfriend home to visit, he lost interest.

He wanted to too.

But even if he took Jinse back, his parents wouldn't be able to see Jinse.

Besides, he had no way to take Jinse home.

Jinse cannot stay out of water for long.

Although he didn't know how long this period of time was.

But it takes three hours to get from here to his home by high-speed rail, and another hour by bus.

Jinse definitely can't last for such a long time, right?

Only he can see Jinse.

What once satisfied him became what bothered him most as time went by.

After the initial excitement, reality slowly set in.
If he continues to be with Jinse, he must be prepared to be single for the rest of his life in the eyes of others.
First of all, how is he going to explain this to his parents?

He didn't want to make his parents worry about him.

It is said that girls look forward to weddings.

In fact, as a boy, he also fantasized about his future wedding.

Especially as he gets older.

He longed to hold the hand of his beloved, and with everyone's blessings, make a vow to each other.

He also made an agreement with his friends that whoever got married first would be the other's best man.
He even had several options for his honeymoon.

But these.
If his girlfriend was Jinse, it would be impossible to achieve this.
He received no blessings.

The enthusiastic elderly people in the community will ask you to introduce someone to you.

Will be forced to go on a blind date by parents.

People will point fingers at you behind your back.

A world of only two people
It sounds romantic.
But no.

He is not a hermit or a great hero.
