Chapter 1097 - Muir’s First Time to Dine at the Table (2) (2/2)
Bai Qingqing was very worried that he might not be accustomed and thus constantly paid attention to him. When she saw this, she wanted to take more food for him.
However, Winston was one step faster than her, picking up the soup ladle that Bai Qingqing was reaching for, and placed fish balls into Muir’s bowl. He said, “If you want to eat something, look in its direction and I’ll get it for you.”

Muir heaved a sigh of relief and cast him a thankful gaze.
Parker threw an angry sideward glare at Winston. He was unaware that even if Winston didn’t do this, Bai Qingqing would be there to help him. That would only make them feel even more upset.
Bluepool didn’t understand all the happenings taking place on the table and only thought to himself that this family looked very united and loving.

However, this wasn’t something that he wanted. He felt more at ease with the way the merfolk got along with each other. He might be able to stand having a few males squeezing together for a meal once or twice, but he was afraid that if this were to happen every day, he might not be able to withstand his instincts to protect his food.

This wasn’t appropriate. His mindset wasn’t appropriate. If he wished to become Bai Qingqing’s mate, he must change this mindset.
Bluepool suppressed his discomfort and tried to think of this scene in a better direction.
The great spread on the table was completely wiped out, and all of them were stuffed full of food. Muir was no exception.
Parker didn’t stand on ceremony and chased the dawdling Bluepool away, who was refusing to leave. He then cleaned up the place with Winston. Muir was injured and was naturally chased out again, so he walked out alongside Bai Qingqing.
Muir’s strides were very regulated till they seemed intentional. It was as if he had to try hard to move his legs to maintain this rhythm.
Bai Qingqing felt a little uneasy. She lowered her head and looked at the sleepy An’an, trying to find a conversation topic. “Look, this is An’an. She’s almost nine and a half months old. It was thanks to you that we managed to get the antidote successfully. She’s a lot better now.”
