Shang Yueling was dumbfounded after pulling it down.
"How could this happen?" Why is it a black bucket!
To mislead Lott, Meng Lai, and others, the young merman was most skilled at pretending to be obedient and compliant, understanding how to read the room to achieve the most favorable outcomes swiftly.
The young merman immediately acted as if frightened by her, trembling while looking at Shang Yueling, appearing innocent and pitiful as if scared by her.
In the presence of everyone, he left behind panicked tears, shrinking back into the bucket so that only his eyes were visible, and silently cried toward Lu Xining and Cheng Cang, occasionally glancing at the gritting Shang Yueling, putting on a perfect act of a manipulative young man.
