Ye Zhaoling stood up suddenly. The hard river crab was twice as big as her head. This guy must have caused serious internal injuries to her soft abdomen. Ye Zhaoling felt that her stomach was about to be broken.
Her right hand tried to hold the table, but it came up empty. At this critical moment, she successfully touched something. Before she could completely settle down—
The touch in her hand caused cold sweat to break out on her back. This touch! It was a bell! What was even scarier was that she accidentally pushed down the bell in front of her.
"Dingle bell!——"
The bells were rolling, Ye Zhaoling was holding her swollen belly, her expression under the cloak was somewhat twisted in pain.
This damn river crab!
If anyone can understand Ye Zhaoling's feelings now, please do her a favor——
Heat the oil in the pan, thank you.

The name of the story is "The Last Bubble".
It's a beautiful autumn afternoon, which is a very common day in Golden Bay.
The warm ocean makes all things sleepy. For the mermaids living in the golden bay, they are often restless and have a loss of appetite due to the restlessness of the changing seasons.
The sky was hazy, and wisps of brackish sea breeze drifted in and out, without disturbing the sleepy air.
The dazzling light purple and rose gold mist is not water vapor, but a curtain formed by the light projected from the sky. It is quietly hiding in the depths of the island, watching the beautiful creatures in the golden bay.
.
This island stands on the highest ground of the golden bay, like a pool of indifferent smoke. The bay across the middle shines with a dim, gray light like molten lead.
"Small sailboats" made of huge corals can be vaguely seen on the water. Some are lying motionless, and some are flowing into the distance with the slow tide.
The distant Liuli Yuehe soars into the sky. Liuli Yuehe is the nearest human gathering place to the golden bay. It is also known as the Silver Kingdom.
Guarding the Silver Kingdom is a towering mountain range, the Yuehe Mountains. Looking from the golden bay, it is faintly visible in the silver mist, towering majestically at the end of the strait. In the west-slanting sunlight, the strait looks like a
A royal path exclusive to the sun.
Beyond, there is the vast Great Demonic Ocean, a vast expanse of white, with piles of surging clouds rising on the horizon, and they are rushing toward the land——
Warning that the first violent winds of winter are coming.
Bai He was sitting on the coral boat. She looked at the cloud tide in the distance and shuddered.
As a deep-sea mermaid, she was not afraid of the cold. The big-mouthed shark pushing the coral boat forward called Bai He.
"Bai He! Bai He! Your mother called you home for dinner!"
"I...I, I, I..." Bai He nodded uneasily. Through the dark clouds, she smelled an unusual smell.
["Ahem," Ye Zhaoling cleared his throat, "Bai He is a stammerer."]
["At the same time, she is also the most beautiful albino mermaid in the Golden Bay."]
Her snow-white skin is naturally as charming as the pink pearls in the clam shell. When she swims into the water, her long snow-white curly hair is like a breeze soaked in the color of snowflakes, rippling in the depths of the sparkling bay.
A pair of sparkling eyes, with long eyelashes like butterflies shining with pearlescent color, stood guarding them. The light-colored pupils curiously observed the color of the sky, the shells in the distance, and the lonely island by the golden bay; it seemed that
Being stared at by such a pair of innocent eyes, the little fish and shrimp couldn't help but swing their tail fins to chase Bai He's gaze.
Bai He returned to the bottom of the sea and ate three more bowls of "rice" than usual. In order to keep her elegant and beautiful body lines, her mother has only been willing to feed her pearl powder and various seaweed salads for more than a year.
Of course, it's not because her mother is stingy, this is all for Bai He's coming-of-age ceremony, which her mother has been preparing for more than fifty years in advance.
The other mermaid groups in the sea area are looking forward to Bai He's coming-of-age ceremony, when they can send her to marry a powerful mermaid leader in another sea area.
This baby's marriage is a well-known story in both sea areas.
Perhaps only Bai He's mother knew that Bai He had fantasized about the silver kingdom on the other side since he was a child.
She hopes to see the legendary human——
An upright creature that walks on two legs.
I heard that they have no tail fins and do not breathe with gills, but with lungs inside their bodies.
Bai He was very curious, what does it feel like to walk upright on the sand with two legs? What is life like in the human world? Why can't they sleep in the water for a long time?
Bai He eats gracefully, maintaining a graceful posture while also chewing up these tasteless foods quickly, although the nutrients they can supplement the human-fish family are extremely limited.
For mermaids, these things are just skin care products to maintain youthful beauty and immortality.
After dinner, Bai He declined her mother's invitation and told her that she wanted to take a beauty sleep at home.
Today, Bai He was particularly obedient and well-behaved. Her mother stroked Bai He's hair as soft as satin and approved her daughter's plan with satisfaction.
Bai He smiled and watched her mother leave home to attend an event at the Mermaid Palace dozens of miles away. After her mother was no longer visible, she hummed the mermaid's song and coaxed all the shrimp soldiers and crab generals guarding her to sleep.
Immediately afterwards, she swam happily to the sea.
When she jumped out of the water, the sun had just set; she truly felt how beautiful the scene in front of her was, which made her feel extremely novel.
Well, at this time, the entire sky took on a golden and transparent golden coral-like color, and the dazzling light shrouded the skin of everything under the sky. It looked so rich and powerful.
And that naughty cloud ran over her head for a while, and then put an orange-red fur hat on the towering main peak of Yuehe Mountain. It was very naughty.
Even faster than these clouds were a group of wild ravens. They flew clattering through the air toward the sun, and she followed them as they swam toward the sun.
Mothers are always the ones who know their children best. Bai He is like a white butterfly in the bay, attracting the attention of all things.
She was so happy and unleashed her nature to the fullest.
So much so that I didn't even notice that a yacht passed by a distant reef and stopped. The people on the yacht were holding up binoculars——
Ah! Pure white... fish?
She has long hair, her skin is as white as snow, and her whole body is glowing!
This is a beautiful mermaid princess!
What an unexpected surprise!
When Bai He noticed the unusual prying eyes, she didn't feel presumptuous. In fact, she took the initiative to get closer to the yacht and danced around and around the strange "sailing boat".
"Get out of here quickly, human." she said.
"The storm is coming."
But the man on the yacht only heard an extremely pleasant and melodious cry——
He couldn't understand the mermaid's language and didn't know what she was talking about. He only thought she was singing a moving ballad.
The mermaid's warning was soon confirmed, and the sun set.
A rosy sunset slowly disappeared between the sea and the clouds.
