Chapter 222 Size Modification
Jiang Yu took Moya back to his room. Moya was clearly very satisfied with the place.
“This is the first time I’ve had my own room.” Moya happily turned around. “You know, that old bastard Triton used to hide me in a trunk, and then after I came of age, he locked me on the altar.”
Jiang Yu was heartbroken and felt incredibly foolish. He was so powerful; if he really wanted to escape, it would have been a piece of cake. Yet he had been locked up for so long, forced to activate the sacrificial array time and time again, devouring so many innocent lives. The karmic consequences of those wrongful deaths were now falling on his own body.
“I had nowhere to go back then, and my entire clan was wiped out. Triton was actually quite good to me.” Moa touched his nose. “I can live a long time; a few hundred years is nothing to me.”
"And now I have you."
He knew Jiang Yu felt sorry for him, so he explained a few more words, hoping she wouldn't be too sad.
"I thought you went to the sea to feed, but you ended up killing a sea monster along the way." Jiang Yu didn't want to continue reminiscing about those less-than-pleasant past events with him, and she was still a little speechless when she thought about that sea monster.
"I went to eat, and I even brought back plenty of gold coins and gems, which I stuffed into that... Bai Lie's... belly." Moa couldn't remember the sea monster's name.
“King Bailie,” Jiang Yu reminded him.
“Oh right, King Bailie,” Moya repeated. “What kind of trash is this, daring to call itself a king in its name?”
"When I hadn't yet transformed into my true form, I was suppressing my aura. This reckless guy actually dared to ambush me. He's wasting his big, ugly eyes."
"..." Upon hearing his description, Jiang Yu thought that Mo Ya's perspective was probably quite one-sided. He probably barged into someone's vault and wanted to loot it completely, which is why the other party wanted to rush out and fight him.
"Damn it, Fan Qingyin put me on such a high pedestal. What would I do empty-handed? I had no choice but to give away the food I had painstakingly gathered myself. Waaah~" The tall man was on the verge of tears, feeling more and more aggrieved the more he thought about it.
"That little white dumpling looks like a bag, doesn't it? I emptied it out and it's just the right size to hold my goodies." Moya was almost in tears.
Delicious food = gold and silver treasures = forcing a duck onto a shelf = the cooked duck flies away = sorrow arises from within.
"It's alright, it's alright," Jiang Yu quickly reassured him, picking up a delicate little box from the table and opening it to show him.
"Take a look at these and see if you like them?" Inside the box were samples of small cookies made of pure gold. Slightly larger than gold coins, they were engraved with all sorts of lifelike and adorable little designs by goldsmiths.
"Wow, what is this?" Moya's eyes widened. Such a small box, could it be food for him?
He was right: "Yes, but these are just samples. The goldsmiths are already working overtime, and huge boxes of gold cookies will be delivered to you soon."
"Aww~" Jiang Jiang is so good, Jiang Jiang is simply the best person in the world.
Moya, moved to tears, hugged Jiang Yu tightly. He was already sitting on his own soft sofa, and Jiang Yu was standing right in front of him. He buried his face in Jiang Yu's soft belly and rubbed against her affectionately.
"Qingyin has arranged an identity for you. You need to be careful in front of others so that you don't give yourself away. Ordinary people don't fully understand the origin of the world, so they probably can't accept that a legendary demigod has appeared beside them and become the lord's husband."
Jiang Yu stroked Moya's smooth hair and patiently advised him, "Don't cause unnecessary panic. People accept you well now. In their eyes, you are both an aristocrat and a hero. Maintaining the status quo is the best thing to do."
“I know,” Moya agreed. “Although Fan Qingyin doesn’t like me and I don’t like him either, I have to admit that his arrangement is the most appropriate one.”
"That's wonderful." Qingyin is always so thoughtful, always able to anticipate and make the best arrangements. It's truly fortunate to have such a husband.
"Moya, take a look. Is there anything in the room that you're not satisfied with, or that you need to add?"
"There's one thing I'm not satisfied with," Moya pouted. "It would be perfect if Jiangjiang moved in with me."
"..." Jiang Yu flicked Mo Ya's forehead, "Stop joking." Then she pulled him to the large desk. The desk lamp was designed by her, and it was the decoration she was most satisfied with in the whole house.
The entire lamp is shaped like a large bubble made of transparent crystal, inside which is a girl and a stunning mermaid. Moa once kept her in the bubble at the bottom of the sea, and she briefly transformed into a mermaid, leaving a deep impression on her.
The legend of the siren seems to exist in every world, invariably described as beautiful and mysterious. Moa was the only real mermaid she had ever seen, far more beautiful than any image she had ever imagined.
Moya, of course, also noticed the lamp. His gray eyes lit up immediately, and he exclaimed, "It's so beautiful! This is a scene from when we were underwater."
“I’m so happy.” Moya looked at Jiang Yu with some emotion. “I know our meeting wasn’t a pleasant thing for Jiang Jiang. I was afraid that when you think back to the days we spent together at the bottom of the sea, it will feel like a nightmare. But now I understand that the time we spent at the bottom of the sea wasn’t all disgust and bad memories for you, right?”
"Of course." Jiang Yu gently embraced the tender-hearted man before her. "Just like my feelings for you didn't happen suddenly."
The encounter was not pleasant; the relationship began with calculation.
But as long as the ending is happy, that's enough.
“Oh right, Moya, take a look at these.” Jiang Yu flipped through a thick stack of design drafts spread out on the desk, all of which were clothes designed by tailors for Moya. “I have already sorted them by type of clothing. Pick out the ones you like and have them made now. If it’s not enough, I will ask them to design more.”
"The dress for tomorrow's banquet has already been made. It wouldn't be enough time to make it when you get back, so it was made according to the size of the dress you wore before. If there are any minor issues, we can make alterations."
"I'll call a tailor over right now to take your measurements." Moya was still wearing clothes that the Fan family in the Aurora Empire had hastily made for him; there weren't many sets of them available.
The climate of the Ocean Empire was quite different, so making clothes became an urgent matter.
“You’ll be living here permanently from now on, so we need to fill up the wardrobe first.” Jiang Yu patted her head, somewhat annoyed: “There are too many things to do, and my brain is always forgetful. How could I forget to ask the tailor from the Fan family for your measurements? That would have saved us a lot of trouble.”
“It’s alright, Jiangjiang, you can take a closer look. If there’s anything about my body that you’re not satisfied with, I can adjust my body size.” Moya said proudly, tilting her head back.
What size do you like me? I can change!
"..." Jiang Yu's eyes widened. What was going on? Could you drive on this shabby little road?
