At this late hour, how can he be at sea? Qin Shen stared at his phone for a while and found that the location was particularly far from the coast, but the speed of the movement was very fast, it was not like the normal speed that should be on a boat.

Qin Shen suppressed the thought of calling and asking, saw the direction of the movement, and drove in the direction of the beach.

The software can only show the approximate location, so when Qin Shen drove to the beach and looked in the direction Jiang Yu was moving, he stopped the car and looked around.

This was a very secluded beach, not to mention that it is dark and no one is there now, even in the daytime, there were not many people. Linghai City is a seaside city with pleasant scenery. There are several well-known bathing beaches. Citizens usually spend their activities in those places and do not come to such remote beaches.

He also looked down at the software on his phone. Jiang Yu’s location was still moving fast, but because it is too far from the coast, he will not arrive here for a while.

What secret is Jiang Yu hiding? Qin Shen looked out the window of the car not far from the dark beach. With the silence, one could only hear the sound of the waves gently lapping the beach. He had a feeling that Jiang Yu’s secret was related to the sea.

The phone rang suddenly, he glanced down, it was his assistant who was calling, and when he picked it up, he heard him say on the phone, “Mr. Qin, there is news from Young Master Gu. He called Mr. Gu at noon saying that he and Lin Cheng are in the mountains, and he will come back when he has had enough fun.”

In the mountains? Absolutely impossible. Qin Shen wrinkled his brows and asked, “Gu Yang didn’t say anything else?”

The assistant said: “No, Young Master Gu only reported that he was safe, and then hung up the phone. He also said that he had a bad signal there so that Mr. Gu don’t call him, he will call back if something happens.”

Qin Shen lowered his eyes thoughtfully. Gu Yang called back today, and Jiang Yu went to the sea for some unknown reason. He thought for a moment, then instructed his assistant, “Check what Jiang Yu has done when I’m not here for the past two days.”

Hanging up the phone, he took another look at the location on the software, then looked at the time, took off his jacket to cover his body, leaned back in his chair, and closed his eyes to rest.

Qin Shen waited in the car all night. He didn’t fall asleep. He woke up from time to time to check the location of the software. When the sky turned white, Jiang Yu’s movement speed slowed down slightly. However, looking at the direction of movement, it is still probably towards his position.

The day was getting brighter, and Jiang Yu was moving closer and closer to the beach. Qin Shen found that the parking position was a bit off, so he rubbed his eyebrows to wake up some and drove slowly towards the location shown on his phone.

He drove along the coastline while turning his head to look for Jiang Yu’s figure on the beach not far from the side, and the software showed that the person had arrived at the beach and was nearby.

The day had just dawned and there was not a single figure on the beach. Qin Shen was looking for, the phone rang, he took a look and picked up, “Checked?”

The assistant said on the other side: “Found it. In the two days that you were not home, Jiang Yu first bought a large number of things online, then went to the east coast pier rented a boat, and finally sent Jiang Naonao to Lu Qing. The night before last, the boat he rented went out to sea and came back a few hours later. I don’t know if he was on that boat or not, but there was no sign of him all day yesterday.”

Buying a lot of things and renting a boat again. Qin Shen turned his attention from the beach to the phone and asked, “What did he buy online?”

The assistant said, “Pots and pans, noodles and cookies and the like, and some mineral water.”

Qin Shen frowned, as soon as he was not there, the young man did so many things behind his back. He had been to the house where the young man lived, and there was no shortage of these things. Such a move is more like buying it sent it over to someone.

He turned his eyes to the beach again and saw Jiang Yu cautiously poking his head out from behind a huge rock on the beach not far away. He was wet all over, standing beside a big rock and wringing the water from his clothes and pants.

Qin Shen looked at his back, and a storm surged in his heart. There was nothing around him, did he swim ashore by himself? However, no matter how good the water is, it is impossible for a person to swim all day and night, not to mention that was not a speed that a human being can do.

And he disappeared for a day. Where exactly did he go? Did you buy something for Gu Yang and Lin Cheng and went to send it over?

The original plan was to catch the young man on the spot and ask what was going on, but now Qin Shen has changed his mind. If there is a first time, then there will be a second time. If the young man really sent something to Gu Yang and Lin Cheng, then he will definitely go there again. At that time, he must find out his secret.

Qin Shen sat in the car and didn’t move. His car has parked some distance from the beach. Jiang Yu looked in his direction suspiciously and couldn’t see if anyone was in the car. At this moment, another car drove over, the window was lowered, and Lu Qing stuck his head out of the window holding Jiang Naonao. Jiang Yu withdrew his attention and quickly ran towards the car.

When the car that Jiang Yu was in left, Qin Shen drove slowly in the opposite direction.

Lu Qing brought Jiang Yu a change of clean clothes, and Jiang Yu changed in the car. He sent Jiang Yu and Jiang Naonao to their house before Lu Qing left.

Because he brought pots and pans and so on, Jiang Yu brought food but he thought he would go again in a couple of days and bring more food to Lin Cheng and Gu Yang, so he placed many more orders online.

Qin Shen heard that Jiang Yu had bought a lot of food on the Internet again, and calmly made people keep an eye on the boat that Jiang Yu rented at the East Bank Pier. He checked and found that Jiang Yu had rented the boat for a whole month.

After two days, Jiang Yu was ready to send Jiang Naonao to Lu Qing again, and just when he went out, he bumped into Qin Shen.

“Where are you going?” Qin Shen came out of the elevator and looked at him and asked calmly.

“…… I have work to do these two days. Naonao has no one to take care of, so I sent him to a friend’s place for two days.” Jiang Yu made an excuse, and at the same time his heart was beating hard in case Qin Shen asked about what work it was or what friends he was talking about because he didn’t know how to answer. Who knows why, but Qin Shen did not ask anything, and only said: “Leave Naonao with me. I help you take care of him.”

“You are busy with work. I didn’t want to bother you.” Jiang Yu said embarrassed.

“No trouble, I like him a lot.” Qin Shen reached out and touched Jiang Naonao’s little hand; Jiang Naonao grabbed his finger and babbled towards him with a happy little grin.

Seeing that he looked at Jiang Naonao with soft eyes, and Jiang Naonao was also very affectionate with him, Jiang Yu’s heart softened and he agreed: “Okay.”

After thinking about it, he added: “Naonao has had a runny nose these two days, so when bathing, it will be fine to just use a wet towel to wipe him, do not put him in the water, I’m afraid he will get sick again.”

Qin Shen nodded and picked up the little cub from his arms.

After taking the cub back home, Qin Shen asked someone to keep an eye on Jiang Yu and call him once he went out.

Until the evening, there was no news of Jiang Yu going out. Qin Shen looked at the tracking software on his mobile phone. Jiang Yu’s location was always at his residence and he hadn’t moved.

As a little cub who is only a few months old, Jiang Naonao goes to bed very early every day. Qin Shen knew that Jiang Yu would move at any time, so he didn’t go to the company, and asked the nanny to heat some water to wipe Jiang Naonao with a wet towel as Jiang Yu said, and prepared him to sleep after feeding him milk.

The nanny put the water in, and Qin Shen carried the kid into the bathroom and asked the nanny to go out to boil water and make milk powder for the kid. The little brat who was lying on his shoulders quietly at first, when the nanny went out, suddenly became excited and twisted restlessly in his arms.

Qin Shen frowned, seeing the little boy’s round and big eyes staring at the water in the bathtub, his heart suddenly moved. It was like this when he was around him a few times before, and the little brat was so excited when he saw the water. The last time he was at Jiang Yu’s residence, seeing him holding the cub in the bathroom, Jiang Yu was very nervous and snatched the cub. This time, he even told him not to put the cub into the water.

Could it be that if you put the cub into the water, something will happen?

Qin Shen looked at the cub in his arms for a moment, and slowly bent down close to the bathtub, and sure enough, the cub excitedly stretched out his little hand to touch the water in the bathtub. Naonao kept wriggling in his arms, seemingly wanting to get into the water.

Qin Shen bent down and squatted by the bathtub, reaching out to hold the little cub and put him into the water of the bathtub. Worried about the little cubs wouldn’t swim, he did not dare to let go after putting him in the water and stared at the cub nervously.

Jiang Naonao threw happily in the water with his little legs but suddenly wrinkled his face, flattened his mouth, and tugged at his small trousers with his little hands. He seemed uncomfortable wearing trousers and wanted to pull the trousers off his body.

Only then did Qin Shen realize that he had put the little guy in the water without taking off his clothes. A little embarrassed, he quickly took off the little brat’s clothes and pants, got up and threw the wet little clothes into the laundry basket next to him, lowered his head again, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he was stunned.

He saw that in the bathtub Jiang Naonao was joyfully swimming around in the water, and under his tender and white belly, the pair of short legs were gone, replaced by a beautiful little fishtail.

Jiang Naonao was unaware of how much of a scare he gave his father, babbling and laughing happily, but also sank into the water, sucked a large mouthful of water, and then emerged again, open dark round eyes, puffed up the little cheeks, “Goo” spat a water bubble at his father.

There were footsteps outside the bathroom door. Qin Shen was still in shock, and he didn’t have time to think about it, so he picked up a bath towel on the side, and quickly bent over to wrap the little brat into his arms.

“Sir, the water is boiling.” The nanny appeared at the bathroom door preparing to help him with giving the little cub a bath.

“No, you go down and get busy.” Qin Shen tensed his body, turned his back on the nanny to hold the little cub in his arms, and ordered in a deep voice.

When the nanny went out, Qin Shen immediately turned around and locked the bathroom door, then looked down at the little brat wrapped in a bath towel in his arms. Remembering the scene that he saw just now; he forced his hand to lift off the bath towel and found that the little brat’s short legs were back.

The earlier one should be an illusion, right? Qin Shen rubbed his temples, reached out, and poked the little cub’s short legs, the fleshy feel, the little cub sucked his thumb and looked back at him innocently.

Yes, it was an illusion. Qin Shen breathed a sigh of relief, he was too tired these two days, he should listen to Jiang Yu’s words and wipe the little brat with a damp towel.

He stood for a while holding the cub, and then suddenly bent down and put the cub into the water. Then, he watched the little cub flutter in the water, swoosh, and the little short legs turned into a small tail.

In the bathtub, the little mermaid baby was carefreely swimming around, outside the bathtub, Qin Shen was completely shocked and even in a trance.

Qin Shen stared blankly at the bathtub, the cell phone in his pocket suddenly rang, he looked back, took it out and answered, it was the person he asked to guard outside Jiang Yu’s place and said that Jiang Yu carried some things out of the door.

Qin Shen hung up the phone, entered the software, and really saw Jiang Yu moving, and judging by the location, it was towards the east coast pier. He looked down at the little cub in the bathtub again, lingered on the little tail for a few seconds, closed his eyes, and called his assistant to come over to the house immediately.

After making the call, he put away the phone and bent down to carry the little cub out of the bathtub again. The little fishtail turned into a little short-legged again, and the little cub didn’t seem to find anything wrong, babbling and opening his little hands, trying to hug his neck.

Qin Shen was in a trance and in a complex mood as he dried the little cub’s body and changed him into a clean change of little clothes, then changed his shirt that was wet by little cub wet shirt. Just when he finished, he heard the doorbell ringing downstairs, he carried the little cub downstairs. The nanny opened the door, and it was the assistant came.

“I have to go out for something tonight, you guys take care of him.” Qin Shen handed the little cub to the nanny, “Feed him milk and put him to bed.”

After a pause, he said in a trance, “Before I come back, don’t let him touch the water, not even a bit of water.”

Although they did not understand why the assistant and the nanny still nodded their heads.

After settling the little cub, Qin Shen quickly went out the door, got off the elevator, and drove to the east coast pier. While watching the speed of Jiang Yu’s movement on the cell phone software, he sped up the car. When he arrived at the east coast pier, the boat that Jiang Yu had rented had just left the pier.

Qin Shen also quickly got on another boat on the pier, which he had rented a long time ago to follow Jiang Yu and see where he had actually gone. He had already called on the way here just now, and the boatman was waiting on the boat.

With the tracking software in place, there was no fear that Jiang Yu would disappear again. In order not to be discovered, Qin Shen asked the boatman to slowly follow behind.

After traveling on the dark sea for about an hour or so, the wind at sea gradually became stronger, and inside the cockpit, the boatman worriedly said to Qin Shen: “Sir, the weather seems to have changed, further ahead is the deep sea, if we meet a storm, it will be bad.”

Qin Shen pursed his thin lips and looked at Jiang Yu, who was still moving forward on the cell phone software, and said in a deep voice: “Keep following.”

He added three times more money, and the boatman gritted his teeth and continued to follow the boat where Jiang Yu was as he wanted.

After about half an hour, the boat where Jiang Yu was suddenly stopped, but in a few minutes, Jiang Yu was moving fast again, several times the speed that he was going before.

Qin Shen’s intuition was not right, and he asked the boatman to speed up his advance. No matter how far he went, he collided with Lu Qing who was going back.

The wind on the sea was getting stronger and stronger. Qin Shen asked the boatman to stop Lu Qing’s boat, then opened the searchlight on the bow of the boat, and went to the bow of the boat on the deck.

Lu Qing on the opposite side of the boat saw him and was taken aback. The way ahead was blocked, and could only stop the boat.

Qin Shen stood at the bow of the boat and raised his voice to ask Lu Qing in the opposite boat, “Where did Jiang Yu go?”

The sea wind blew and the boat swayed uncontrollably, the sound of the waves lapping was louder than ever, and some rain began to drip down. Lu Qing could clearly feel that a huge storm brewing in the sea was coming.

He looked expressionlessly at Qin Shen on the opposite bow, he didn’t know how Qin Shen had followed him here, but since he could follow him here, he should already be suspecting Jiang Yu. If Qin Shen found out the secret that Jiang Yu was a mermaid, would Qin Shen also become another Pei Yun, and Jiang Yu and he, as well as the clan, would be in danger again?

Lu Qing looked at the storm that was coming outside and pursed his lips tightly, this might be a chance given by God, a chance for Qin Shen to be buried in this storm and for their secret to never be discovered.

“Sir, the top can’t hold, we must go back.” The boatman came out of the cockpit and said sharply, braving the heavy rising rain.

The person opposite never responded, Qin Shen, stood at the swaying bow clutching the railing, sinking his face and squeezing his voice out of his teeth: “Go back.”

Jiang Naonao was still with him, so as long as Jiang Yu go back, he will be able to find out the truth.

The boatman hurried back to open the boat, but the sea wind and waves were getting bigger and bigger, even with full horsepower, the ship couldn’t withstand the raging storm, not much farther, it was swept up by the waves and sank into the sea.

Lu Qing’s boat was not spared, and he closed his eyes the moment the boat was swept over by the waves and finally made a summoning sound inaudible to humans before jumping into the sea.

Qin Shen could swim very well, however, in the raging sea he was quickly exhausted, the moment he closed his eyes. He saw a behemoth breaking the water; however, it was Jiang Yu who jumped from the behemoth into the water, slender legs into a fishtail, swimming toward him.

He only had time to take a look before he lost consciousness.

When he woke up, the sunlight was a bit harsh, Qin Shen opened his eyes with a frown and heard the sound of seawater lapping the beach around him. He turned his head to look around and found himself on a beach with a huge rock behind him and a shirt that didn’t belong to him on his body.

He sat up propped up on the beach and found some pain in his fingers, looked down and saw that a small crab had caught his finger somehow, he reached out and took the crab off and threw it to the side, when he heard Gu Yang’s voice ringing from across the street, “Gee, you’re finally awake.”

Qin Shen looked up at Gu Yang and was immediately shocked by what he was wearing. Gu Yang was bare-chested with only a grass skirt woven leaves around his waist. The grass skirt was short and spicy in the eyes, if he did not know Gu Yang, he may think that the island’s aborigines.

“You…” Qin Shen said and found that his throat was a little hoarse. Gu Yang came over and took out a bottle of mineral water from a bag on the ground and handed it to him, “Drink a mouthful of water to moisten your throat, you drank a lot of seawater.”

Qin Shen took the water bottle and unscrewed it. He stood up and took a sip of water to look around. He saw the seawater on the beach and the verdant trees behind him. He realized that he should be on an island.

“You’ve been here all this time? Did Lin Cheng get you here?” After drinking water, his throat felt better. Qin Shen opened his mouth to ask.

Gu Yang sighed and looked at him with difficulty, “Jiang Yu dragged you here on a small shark, you should know that too, right?”

Qin Shen remembered the scene he saw before he lost consciousness, clenched the water bottle in his hand, his throat moved, and he said in a low voice, “Where’s Jiang Yu?”
