Even the adult males in the room were enchanted by the tale; they would glance towards their little ones, then towards Bai Qingqing, from time to time.
Unable to withstand, Bai Qingqing continued with the story as she patted the fur of her own cubs.
The story was essentially about a female of the merfolk tribe rescuing a young male, helping the young male out of his predicament. Thereafter, the two of them lived happily ever after. This story satisfied the males' desires of having a spouse, bringing about a look of anticipation and immersion on the faces of the little ones, as well as the adult males who already had a partner.
"But aren't mermaids heavily protected by the merfolk tribe? How could she float to the water surface to rescue the young male?" The one who raised this question was an adult, so he considered things more thoroughly.
Bai Qingqing had no answers to that. It was merely a fairytale, but they seemed to be taking it for real.
