Female Master: Why doesn’t my wife love me yet?

Chapter 260 Torturing the Mermaid

Ling Yu licked his dry lips with a sad look. He didn't want to die, he wanted to see his benefactor.

His eyes turned to the window through which light came in. Perhaps she was looking for him.

Thinking of this, he struggled in the fishing net with all his strength, trying hard to bite the net with his teeth.

Just then, he heard someone coming and looked over expectantly.

But to his disappointment, the person who came to see him was not Gu Qingyuan, but the woman who brought him back.

After seeing the princess, he said with anger: "Bad woman! You lied to me, my benefactor is fine, right?"

"benefactor?"

Hearing Ling Yu's address to Gu Qingyuan, the princess repeated it. It turned out that Gu Qingyuan had saved him. No wonder he was so attached to Gu Qingyuan.

"Let me out. I want to see my benefactor."

The princess walked in, closed the door, and said, "I advise you to save your energy. If you behave yourself and reveal your true form, I can give you a drink of water, or even be so kind as to allow you to meet your benefactor."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Ling Yu.

Lingyu turned his head away and said in a dumbfounded manner, "What true form? Do you think I'm a monster? And you're showing your true form?"

Seeing him so ungrateful, the princess slammed the table. "Do you think I didn't see it that day? It's this face, and your lower body is a fish tail. Besides, if you're not a mermaid, why would you appear underwater at night?"

Lingyu held his breath and didn't want to pay attention to her.

The princess walked over to his side, looked at his legs, and said seductively, "You are actually a mermaid, right? I can give you double what that woman promised you."

Lingyu remained silent, leaving her with only his back.

As time passed, the princess's patience wore off.

"You fish are so ungrateful!"

She couldn't help but kick Lingyu, who was curled up on the ground.

"Don't think I can do anything to you just because you don't speak up."

She said this with a sinister smile.

Next, she asked someone to bring water to Lingyu.

But salt was added to the water, so I don’t believe he could still hold it in.

The princess had someone cut open part of the fishing net, held down his head, and poured salt water into his mouth.

"Well, it's bitter."

After drinking the salt water, Lingyu's face turned pale.

It seems that the fish tail can no longer be hidden.

He wanted to turn his legs into a tail and throw all these people out.

Ling Yu's legs were trembling. The princess stared at his legs and laughed, "I knew it. You can't hide it now, right?"

But what surprised her was that even though she treated Lingyu like this, he could still hold back.

I thought that if I really showed my true colors in front of so many people, it would be even more dangerous.

Lingyu bit his lower lip hard to prevent them from pouring salt water into his mouth.

He glared at the princess and said, "My benefactor will not let you go!"

The princess seemed to have heard a joke, "Do you know who I am and who she is?"

"If she wants to attack me, she has to consider her own strength and the Gu family behind her."

"So, I advise you to listen to me. Otherwise, you don't want to implicate her, right?"

Ling Yu's already limited brain capacity was trying hard to think. He still remembered that his benefactor had told him that he must never let anyone except her know his identity.

Otherwise, he will face a catastrophe.

The princess thought that after she said so much, the mermaid would be moved.

But no matter whether she threatened or bribed, the mermaid acted as if she didn't hear anything, and even covered her ears, as if she didn't want to listen to her.

The always respected princess had never been treated like this before. She roared, "Don't be ungrateful. I can kill you with just one word!"

When Lingyu heard her call herself "this princess", her ears finally moved and she showed some reaction.

Princess? What is that?

Lingyu didn't move at all, not even bothering to look at her.

If she wanted to kill me, she would have done it long ago, but the fact that she threatened me again and again proved that I was still useful while I was alive.

Therefore, he does not have to worry about his life safety for the time being.

"Okay, I'll see how long you can endure." The princess said coldly.

Then she led her people out, locked the door, and told no one to leak any information.

Haha, this mermaid who doesn’t know how to live or die, look how tough his bones are.

After the princess left, Lingyu in the fishing net was sure that her footsteps were getting farther and farther away. He tried to move to the window and looked out.

His body was tightly entangled in the fishing net, and because he had not eaten for several days and had just drunk some salt water, he now felt that his body was so dry that it was about to break.

He couldn't reveal his true self in front of others, and he wanted to see his benefactor again.

With this belief, he jumped. The window was some distance from the ground. He tried to jump but couldn't see outside.

Lingyu sat down on the ground in a state of self-abandonment, leaning against the wall, unable to hold back her tears.

"Oh, I may never see you again."

At night, Gu Qingyuan tiptoed out of the room.

She walked to the place where she had met Ling Yu before and tried to call him.

"Ming fish?"

"Silly fish?"

The river was extremely calm, without even a splash of water.

The wind blew, lifting Gu Qingyuan's long hair. She stared at the river intently, waiting for the white figure to appear.

But she waited for a long time and he didn't show up.

She suddenly thought of the uneasy feeling in her heart when she went to Xiancheng.

Without thinking too much, she jumped into the water. The place where Lingyu originally lived was empty.

"He couldn't have been arrested, could he?"

Gu Qingyuan was extremely worried and went up from the river again.

Water was still dripping from her clothes on her head. The river water was very cold at night, and she couldn't help sneezing.

"Lingyu, are you there? Or are you angry?"

Holding on to the last glimmer of hope, Gu Qingyuan shouted towards the water.

The river was still calm and the surroundings were quiet.

The feeling of uneasiness grew stronger and stronger, and Gu Qingyuan looked for Lingyu nearby.

He couldn't be stuck again, could he?

She walked around the area for a long time but couldn't see any trace of the Lingyu.

"Forget it, let's go back first."

Gu Qingyuan rubbed his hands and felt a little cold.

When she returned to her residence, she saw that the light on the princess's side was still on.

Without thinking too much, Gu Qingyuan planned to go back, dry himself and change his clothes.

"Where has Young Master Gu gone? Why is he all wet?" The princess suddenly appeared in the dark night, like a ghost.

"I just went to the river to relax, and I didn't stand firmly and fell down." Gu Qingyuan said lightly.

After she finished speaking, she looked at the princess again and asked, "Your Highness, why haven't you rested yet at this late hour?"
