Lan Qian, who had been worrying, began to sincerely hope that Jiang Yang's enthusiasm would only last for three days. After all, a fish, no matter how good-looking, was still a different species. She hoped that Jiang Yang would quickly get tired of it after satisfying her curiosity, just like the courtesans in the brothel before.

Although Jiang Yang was dissolute and prodigal, she was also known for her gentleness towards delicate flowers. With her good family background and exceptional looks, she had even enchanted many courtesans, making them take the initiative to fawn over her, crying and begging her to accept them.

But after all, Jiang Yang was the legitimate second daughter of a prestigious family. She had seen all kinds of men. She was promiscuous yet sober, just playing around. Once she put on her skirt, she wouldn't recognize anyone. It was a pity for those courtesans who wept in front of the mirror every day, hoping that Jiang Yang would visit again, but Jiang Yang never came back.

Thinking of this, Lan Qian calmed down quite a bit and snorted coldly, "Don't be too smug. After all, you're just a fish. Our Second Miss is just playing with you. Maybe she'll be tired of you before the ship even reaches the shore."

"Shut up! Ah Yang wouldn't treat me like that." Chi Mei was angry and wanted to slap her, but he refrained because she was Jiang Yang's personal maid. However, her words did remind Chi Mei.

Seeing the crew's extremely respectful attitude towards Jiang Yang, her background must be good, probably from a noble family or something. With her good looks, gentle personality, and no family ties, even in the sea, such a female mermaid would be the object of secret admiration for countless male mermaids. Then there must be many men on the shore who had their eyes on her. That wouldn't do!

Lan Qian saw his impotent rage and laughed loudly, "What if I shut up? This is the truth. You don't know how many men on the shore are waiting for our lady's favor. You're just a plaything."

"I'm not a plaything. Ah Yang is sincere to me." Chi Mei said angrily.

Lan Qian sneered, "That's what the courtesans in the brothel said when they were fighting for favor. Tsk, they really don't know their place."

"You–" Chi Mei's anger swelled. He had just driven away three flirtatious men, and there would definitely be more seductive and whorish men trying to seduce Ah Yang in the future. Thinking about the future, with many flirtatious men embracing his Ah Yang, making love to her, impregnating her and having children with her, the anger in his chest seemed to surge even more.

No, he couldn't just sit and wait for his doom.

Although Lan Qian disliked Chi Mei, she still followed Jiang Yang's orders and added new tables, chairs, and stools to the room. For the convenience of lighting, she even specially picked out a lamp pillar from the Nalong Kingdom.

The pillar was made of ordinary wood, but the lampshade was made of extremely smooth and polished sea moon shells. This kind of shell only lived in the southeastern coastal area and was extremely thin and clear, like deep-sea dragon scales. The shells were pieced together by craftsmen into the shape of a lotus flower, with a special place in the center of the lotus to put candles. At night, when the candles were lit, the orange-yellow warm light would be cast on the sea moon shells, refracting a magnificent light like seven-colored glaze, looking extraordinarily gorgeous.

So much so that when Jiang Yang brought Angry Bird to see the handsome merman, her attention was immediately drawn to it. "Wow, what a glowing white lotus."

Jiang Yang marveled at this 'prosperous white lotus', while Chi Mei's eyes showed a hint of desolation. What was so good about a shell-made lampstand? There were countless such lampstands in his palace in the ocean. And there was no need for fire for lighting at all. Night pearls could be used for lighting directly, with a gentle luster that wasn't dazzling, much better than this.
