Chapter 2427: Plot
Zu An had been wondering how he was going to talk to the Mermaid Queen without hurting her too much, but he was stunned as soon as he heard what she said. It seemed his imagination had gonea bit too far.
The Mermaid Queen grinned when she saw his reaction. She'd already guessed what he was going to say before he even spoke. That was why she'd immediately changed the topic to seize the initiative. She'd had way too many men around her over the years, so she was very familiar with this kind of conversation. And while dealing with all of those men, she couldn't offend them, but neither could she let them take advantage of her. If she didn’t have any tricks up her sleeve, how could she survive?
She initially hadn’t wanted to use these kinds of methods, but she knew that if she didn’t do anything, this person would likely completely disappear from her life. She would never be able to see him ever again. She didn’t want that, so she'd decisively chosen to carve open a different path.
If he didn’t want to get too close to her, she would just talk about some other matters. Judging from their earlier interactions, she keenly sensed that he seemed to have been paying special attention to the Peacock Princess.
“Let’s talk inside.” The Mermaid Queen took the chance to invite him in. Her previous palace had been sliced in half by Mojard’s blade, but Peach had already brought the others off to the side to prepare a new place for her.
