Chapter 168: Back To That Key Moment ④
五个月后，尚可开始带小人鱼下海玩耍。人鱼和海豚一样，不能长时间沉在水底，需要交替呼吸，但对于还没学会游泳又非常喜欢玩水的小人鱼而言，如果没有人在旁边看着，他随时都有可能把自己淹死。
Five months later, Shang Ke started bringing along the baby merman into the sea to play. Merfolks and dolphins were similar, they could not stay underwater for long and had to emerge to breath. But for the little merman who had still not learned how to swim, he loved playing with water. If no one was watching him, he was likely to drown himself.
小人鱼的生长速度比正常人类要慢，体型也比普通婴儿小，但手脚却十分结实，适应性也很强。只是不能长时间脱水，否则水嫩的皮肤就会开始干燥龟裂。
The growth rate of merfolk was slower than humans and they were also smaller. But their limbs were very strong and had high adaptability. Their main weakness was their inability to stay out of the water long or they'll dry out and have their skin chapped.
"放风时间结束，小呆，你该回去休息了。"尚可捉住小人鱼的尾巴，不让他继续疯。
"Play time's over, little idiot. We need to go back." Shang Ke caught the merman by the tail and prevented him from going wild any longer.
小人鱼扭动着尾巴，企图挣脱尚可的控制，结果发现挣扎无果，只能泄气地放软身体，随着水波轻轻晃荡。
The little merman waved his tail in an attempt to escape Shang Ke. But he discovered the futility of his actions and gave up struggling, allowing the waves to move his body as it pleased.
这个小家伙，别的没学会，装死倒是学得有模有样。尚可好笑地将他抱起来，顺手塞给他一只海螺："抱着它睡觉，可以听到海浪的声音。"
This little guy, he didn't learn much but he learned how to pretend to be dead pretty well. In a good mood, Shang Ke picked him up and slipped him a conch, "Sleep with this, you can hear the waves."
远处的海浪以为是在叫它，屁颠屁颠地游过来，结果一波浪潮退去，它差点被搁浅在沙滩上。
The dolphin Waves in the distance thought he was being summoned and eagerly swam over. But on his way, he was caught in a tide and almost got beached.
尚可提醒道："说过多少次了，不要靠沙滩这么近。"
Shang Ke reminded him again, "How many times did I remind you? Don't get so close to the beach."
海浪翻着白肚皮，郁闷地在海里挺尸。
Waves flipped over onto his back, gloomily pretending to be a corpse as he blew bubbles.
"待会安松会过来陪你，记得对人家好点。"尚可又补充一句。自从尚可接管照顾秦渊饮食起居的工作后，安松就空出不少时间跑到海浪面前刷好感度。不过海浪总喜欢捉弄他，每次都把他弄得很狼狈，但安松的脾气倒是挺好，一点都不在意。
"An Song will come by in a bit to play with you. Remember, be nice to him." Shang Ke added. Ever since Shang Ke took over Qin Yuan's schedule, An Song obtained a lot of free time to come over to Waves and build up their relationship. But Waves always liked to tease him and leave him in a very sorry figure. However An Song had a very good temper so he never minded.
海浪兀自吐着泡泡，也不知道听进去没有。
Waves was still blowing bubbles, who knows if he heard him or not.
