Mu TianChi has always allowed this fish to do everything he wanted. After learning that it was going to the ‘mystical mountain’ where the carp demon lived (the Crown Prince had believed that Xiao Yu lived on a mountain this entire time) for a visit, the Crown Prince was very happy and willing.
The kids couldn’t go with them however. They were still too young and if they brought them along, it might not be easy to take care of them. Therefore, they can only leave them in the estate.
The Crown Prince quickly got ready. Actually, it was only instructing people to guard the house that he and Li Yu were in and order Wang Xi and Xiao Luo to take good care of the kids.
Li Yu didn’t know how to add the Crown Prince into his party. So first he hugged the Crown Prince’s arm tightly, then he entered the System.
Li Yu said: I’m ready. I want to bring the Crown Prince with me. How do I do this?
The System said: “Host, you can just press the button to head to the modern era.”
Li Yu pressed it tentatively. Then suddenly, he completely lost all consciousness, sinking into the darkness.
When he woke up again, he wasn’t in the System. Nor was he in the Crown Prince’s arms.
He was laying on a desk, a crease mark being pressed into his face by the edges of a cell phone.
Li Yu raised his head in confusion and looked around his surroundings. This– he was super familiar with, was his home in the modern era. Meanwhile the cellphone pressed into him……
This was indeed his cellphone. Li Yu grabbed it over for a look. What came into his view was surprisingly a web novel that he had been reading before bedtime– The Tyrant and His Little Pampered Wife!
Che, why this one?
Interest waning, Li Yu threw the phone to the side.
Felt a bit like he was lacking something. What was it?
Oh fck!
Li Yu jolted and jumped out of his chair. His hubby. He didn’t see his hubby. The hubby, who came with him from the ancient world for this two days field trip, was gone!
“TianChi, TianChi, are you here?!” Li Yu yelled in panic.
The room was empty, with only himself in it.
Oh right, the System!
Li Yu hastily entered the System. The System was still the same as usual. The button that he pressed showed the words “in progress” and the countdown for 2 days’ time limit.
Seeing the countdown, the stone in Li Yu’s heart dropped. There really was a 2 days time limit for staying in the modern era.
However, he had originally planned to bring the hubby to visit his hometown. Now his hubby had disappeared in his hometown. What to do?
System, I got separated from the Crown Prince. Can you tell me where he is? Li Yu asked.
We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.
The shitty System did not answer as usual.

The System said: “Host, please rest assured. You will find him.”
Li Yu: “…….”
What’s the point of standing here stunned then? Since the System said it, it’s time to search!
Li Yu exited the System. His modern home was one bedroom, one living room, and one bathroom. It wasn’t more than 50 ping in total. Li Yu’s parents passed away when he was still young. It was his grandparents who left this residence behind for him. Li Yu’s current state was single, well fed, and without worries. Therefore when Li Yu transmigrated into a novel, he didn’t particularly miss anything about his original world. He had long been used to living by himself.
Li Yu looked around in his house a bit. It wasn’t a big place. It was obvious to see that there was no second person here.
The Crown Prince knew nothing about the modern era. Li Yu needed to find the other as quickly as possible. Li Yu had a feeling that since the Crown Prince “came” with him, he shouldn’t be too far away.
Li Yu grabbed his phone and rushed outside. He walked around but also didn’t see the Crown Prince.
Originally he had already planned out where he wanted to bring the hubby in the modern world. Along the way, he had wanted to soothe the hubby’s heart by telling the Crown Prince that the carp demon’s old nest was actually filled with people; that the carp demon was actually also a human, so that the Crown Prince could stop thinking nonsense all the time. However, he never expected that as soon as they returned to the modern era, the Crown Prince would be separated from him. The other stuff was no longer as important as finding the Crown Prince first.
“TianChi, TianChi–” Li Yu yelled at the top of his lungs. No one answered. Occasionally some pedestrians would even give him a curious look.
Don’t panic. Remain calm……
If the Crown Prince could hear or see him, he definitely wouldn’t ignore Li Yu. Second, Li Yu recalled how he received quite a shock after coming back. Did the Crown Prince get frightened as well?
Originally, Li Yu wanted to give the Crown Prince a pleasant surprise. Yet in the end, it became an enormous fright. According to how cautious the Crown Prince was, perhaps he’d first run somewhere to hide?
This was possible!
Other than the roads near Li Yu’s house, there was only a supermarket and a park. Li Yu felt like the latter was a good place to hide. He charged energetically into the park. This park wasn’t very big. Li Yu looked behind every tree, but he still didn’t see the Crown Prince.
Could it be… the Crown Prince didn’t go to a place with a few people, but instead went to a place with a lot of people?
Li Yu turned around and ran to the supermarket. However, this supermarket was extremely big with an ocean of people. It wasn’t easy to find someone here. Li Yu was frustrated. However, this little thing couldn’t stump him. With a bright idea, Li Yu ran to the management area of the supermarket.
A little while later, the loudspeakers placed in different areas of the supermarket all sounded in unison: “Little Mu TianChi, your daddy Li Yu is searching for you. Please come to the management area to reunite with your daddy Li Yu!”
Because the staff from the supermarket’s management office expressed that they can only help parents find their kids, Li Yu had to use this extremely audacious announcement. If the Crown Prince hears this, he’d definitely be unable to sit still. The management area was also very easy to find because of its huge eye-catching sign. Li Yu felt like it wasn’t very easy to find the Crown Prince amongst all these people inside this supermarket. Then, why not have the Crown Prince come find him? He can give the Crown Prince an apology and make up for it later!
Li Yu had everything all planned out. However, after waiting at the management area for a long time, still no one showed up. The staff who helped him make the announcement said in concern: “Hey lad, how come your son’s not here yet? Do you need me to call the police?”
Li Yu: “…….”
You can forget about calling the police. The Crown Prince was an unregistered individual. How were they supposed to tell the police this!
Li Yu thanked the staff and left his phone number, asking them to keep waiting for him. He headed off in search again.
Although the announcement sounded everywhere, what if the Crown Prince just happened to miss it?
Li Yu made his way around the supermarket once, without any gains. His phone didn’t ring either.
It’s already been half a day since they transmigrated over, but he still hasn’t found the Crown Prince. What should he do? What if the Crown Prince wasn’t inside the supermarket……
Li Yu stood in the middle of a crowded group of people. For a moment, he didn’t know where he should go.
“Li Yu? Is it Li Yu?” A voice floated over, grabbing Li Yu’s attention.
Li Yu followed the sound and looked over. He saw a skinny tall white man wearing a pair of gold rimmed glasses looking at him in pleasant surprise.
Li Yu didn’t recognize this person. He said vigilantly: “Who are you?”
The man adjusted his glasses and said with a smile: “I used to be a neighbor of yours, then I moved away. I kept you in mind all this time. You don’t remember me?”
Li Yu really didn’t have any impression at all. The house complex that he lived in was very old. Many of the neighbors have moved away. However, because the rent was cheap, there’s always people moving in. Therefore, he had quite a large number of neighbors. He can’t possibly remember them all.
However, since this person was able to state his house address, it meant that this person should have seen him a lot before, but never really spoke to him.
Li Yu carefully examined this person and said in a light tone: “How can I help you?”
This person said: “It’s nothing really. I just suddenly saw you and wanted to say hello to you. You should be in college right now right? Where are you going to college?”
Li Yu just finished his college entrance exam this year and received his letter of notification. He didn’t even have time to apply, then he transmigrated.
Because his grades weren’t very good, the school that he applied to was very ordinary. Li Yu said the name of the school.
That person said happily: “I live very close there. How about I take you on a tour to your future college? I’ll invite you to a meal along the way and we can catch up?” The man patted his pants pocket, revealing the keys to a luxury car.
Li Yu furrowed his brows and took a step back. He was not used to this person’s sudden familiar attitude, nor how he was flaunting his wealth, intentionally or otherwise, as if he was hinting at something. Living a palace life in the other world made Li Yu much more guarded towards strangers.
“Thanks, but it’s not necessary.” Li Yu decisively shook his head.
This person replied: “It’s fine, don’t be courteous. We’re neighbors after all.”
Saying this, he stepped forth to pull Li Yu’s hand. The two of them were right next to the fresh seafood shop. The people here were relatively less. Li Yu was just about to move away and refuse firmly when a big long shadow suddenly jumped out from behind this person.
What the fck is that?
Li Yu was dumbfounded. The man in front of him was still attempting to hit on Li Yu, however, Li Yu had already turned his complete focus on the black shadow behind the person!
This black shadow was a living creature– kind of like a long thick towel. After twisting violently in midair, it whipped towards the man’s head.
“Pa!” A crisp loud sound later, the man was utterly stunned by this strike that came out of nowhere. Even the wig that he was wearing was whipped off, revealing a shiny bald head.
Li Yu: pfft!!!
This scene… strangely looked a bit familiar.
The man let out an ‘ao” sound. Turning his head, the black shadow just happened to whip over again, quickly, accurately, and viciously. The man was also slapped in the face this time. Within seconds, it became red like a boiled egg.
The ferocious black shadow continued to slap several times in succession without stopping. The man screamed repeatedly. He didn’t even see what was whipping him and only felt that his body was all wet and damp, both painful and gave him the chills. The man had a guilty conscience to start. At this moment, he couldn’t have been more embarrassed. Not daring to say another word, he hastily picked up the wig on the floor and immediately ran off.
Li Yu clicked his tongue, too lazy to bother with the smooth talker who had escaped. Instead, he crouched down to look at the black shadow.
The black shadow laid quietly on the floor, not moving at all.
Now Li Yu finally saw it clearly. This was an impressive looking big black fish that was the length of an arm and the thickness of a bowl. Its black scales shone in the light.
Li Yu: “……………………..”
It’s fine if it were something else…… but this was a fish…….
Oh fck, could this be– it can’t be that much of a coincidence right?
Li Yu hastily picked this big black fish with his arms and then looked left and right.
Not far in front of him was a big fish tank at the fresh seafood shop. Before the fish tank was a pile of water. It can be presumed that the big black fish jumped out from this fish tank.
This fish was extremely heavy. However, while Li Yu was holding it, it didn’t even struggle and just nested inside Li Yu’s arms, completely lacking the threatening aura it had just now while it was slapping that man. A pair of pitch black fish eyes gazed at Li Yu as the fish wagged its tail slightly.
The more Li Yu looked, the more shocked he became. With an extremely soft voice, he said: “Your highness, hubby? If it’s you….. Can you nuzzle my hand please?”
He was afraid the fish couldn’t hear him and said it two more times. However, the big black fish didn’t actually move.
Li Yu gave a sigh, thinking to himself, he must be going crazy. How can the Crown Prince turn into a fish?
Even though Li Yu had turned into a fish when he transmigrated, that didn’t mean that the Crown Prince would turn into a fish when he transmigrated back. This strange idea was completely without any logic.
Li Yu did his best to convince himself. Then suddenly, the body of the fish in his arm carved as the fish nimbly nuzzled Li Yu on the face with its mouth. After nuzzling, it also curled its tail around Li Yu’s finger.
Li Yu: “…………………….”
After this series of actions by the big black fish, Li Yu was completely dumbstruck. Oh fck, he was really in big trouble. This black fish was really the Crown Prince!
The Crown Prince couldn’t bear watching a vulgar man hitting on his young wife. Even as a fish, he still needed to jump out and protect his wife……
No no no. It should be, the hubby changed into a fish in this not very long two days field trip. What the fck should he do?!
HAHAHAHAHA NOOO
