Liao Ning raised an eyebrow, impressed by the accuracy of the system’s information. It seemed that Zhou Ye and his wife were indeed on the Golden Rice Planet.

“How is that possible? The individuals sent by the Su family specifically reported that they couldn’t find any traces of Brother…” Lan Yin’s expression also grew perplexed. He knew that the Su family had extensively searched for Zhou Ye’s whereabouts in the empire. With their vast intelligence network, the Su family should have been able to uncover any leads. It was difficult to believe that they had obtained this information so casually from the mermaid they had saved.

The mermaid sensed the disbelief in Zhou Ling and Lan Yin’s reactions, and it irked him. He felt insulted by their doubts about her character.

His voice turned colder once again as he retorted, “If you don’t trust me, why bother asking? Mermaids never lie!”

Zhou Ling met the mermaid’s gaze and tried to explain, “It’s not that I don’t believe you, but I’m simply overwhelmed by shock. If I’m not mistaken, the person you’re referring to is my long-lost brother. I have searched tirelessly for his whereabouts and accumulated an abundance of information. However, every lead I pursue eventually turns out to be a dead end. It’s not that I doubt you, but I fear my hopes will be dashed once again. I apologize.”

The mermaid remained silent, shifting his attention to Lan Yin, awaiting his explanation just as Zhou Ling had provided.

Lan Yin swiftly responded, “I apologize as well. Due to the Alliance’s covert investigation into Zhou Ye’s whereabouts on the Golden Rice Planet, we were unable to find any substantial evidence. This made me hesitant to confirm the authenticity of this news. Please understand that my intention was not to doubt you.”

Liao Ning had been attentively listening to their conversation, but she was taken aback when the mermaid turned to look at her after hearing Zhou Ling and Lan Yin’s explanations.

The mermaid’s demeanor remained icy as he asked, “Their explanations seem plausible, but what about you? Why do you differ from them? Why did you choose to believe me?”

Surprised by the mermaid’s astute perception of his beliefs, Liao Ning responded in astonishment, “How did you know that I believed you?”

Instead of receiving an answer, the mermaid posed a question in response. He furrowed hisr brow, displaying his dissatisfaction. “Different emotions emit different scents. You haven’t addressed my question.”

Liao Ning smiled warmly at him. “Because I’ve always believed that Zhou Ye is on Planet Golden Rice. Despite the reports from the investigators suggesting otherwise, I choose to believe that Zhou Ye is indeed on Planet Golden Rice. Therefore, I believe in what you’re saying.”

The mermaid sensed a distinct difference in the woman before her. Although she trusted the mermaid’s words, the mermaid felt that her trust stemmed from something beyond the words spoken.

Nodding, the mermaid turned his attention to Zhou Ling. “I remember now. Zhou Ye mentioned having a younger brother who is an exceptional soldier in the Alliance.”

Zhou Ling, currently dressed in his military uniform, caught the mermaid’s glance at the epaulet on his shoulder. “Zhou Ye’s brother is a colonel in the Alliance, and you’re also a colonel. You are Zhou Ye’s brother.”

With the mermaid’s affirmation, Zhou Ling smiled. He was now certain that the individual who had guided the mermaid to the Alliance was indeed his brother. “It’s me. Thank you for bringing news of my brother. Rest well for now. We’ll discuss this further once you’ve recovered.”

Before leaving the room, Liao Ning reminded the mermaid, “There’s seafood porridge on the cabinet over there. I made it specially for you. Mermaids are known to enjoy seafood, right? But if you don’t like it, there’s nothing I can do. I only made seafood porridge today. If it’s not to your liking, I’ll prepare something different next time.”

“Thank you.”

“You’re welcome.” Liao Ning waved her hand and exited the ward, accompanied by Zhou Ling.

As the mermaid watched them leave, he couldn’t help but wonder what porridge was. He had never heard of it before. From Liao Ning’s words, it seemed to be something edible.

Lan Yin, who stayed behind to care for the mermaid, noticed his curiosity towards the thermos on the cabinet. Thinking that he must be hungry, he opened the thermos and handed a portion of the porridge to the mermaid.

“Would you like to try it?”

Accepting the bowl from Lan Yin, the mermaid sniffed the aroma of the steaming seafood porridge. After confirming the scent of seafood and rice, he picked up the bowl and began savoring the porridge.

However, when Lan Yin turned around to fetch a spoon, he realized that the mermaid was using the bowl to drink the porridge. “The porridge is quite hot.. Use a spoon!”
