Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure

Chapter 958: Warm face to a cold butt

The crown prince's eyes lit up when he heard this.

He wasn't a fool, he could tell that based on the way that the talks were going, it seemed like it was very likely that the engagement would have been cancelled.

So he could also tell that his father was trying to figure out a way to keep this engagement.

As for the method, he was very confident in the method used.

The crown prince was very confident in his own abilities after all, he considered himself a very eligible bachelor. This was true whether it was in the Tide Empire or outside of the Tide Empire.

So if he was given a chance, he would surely be able to seduce Ariel.

The Merman King didn't say anything, but that was because he knew that it was impossible to use words to convince these people. The best way to convince them was to let them play their tricks and then shut them down.

After all, he was certain that his daughter wouldn't fall for this fool of a crown prince.

After what he saw, he knew that this crown prince was the last kind of person that his daughter would fall for.

Seeing that the Merman King didn't say anything, the crown prince took this as a silent agreement and moved forward to approach Ariel who had been sitting on the side the entire time. She didn't say anything, it didn't even seem like she had been listening the entire time even though this matter was about her.

But she did notice the crown prince approaching her, so she narrowed her eyes to look at him. The crown prince took this as a good sign.

He took this as her showing her interest in him, which made him reveal a confident smile.

It was just that by doing this, he actually hurt his own impression in her mind.

He made himself seem like a fool in her eyes.

"What an idiot, why is he smiling all on his own?" Ariel thought to herself.

That's right, he had been reduced to a complete idiot in her mind all because of this confident smile.

However, that confidence that the crown prince was riding on made him stand there in front of her with that same smile that made him appear a fool in her eyes. He was just standing there as if he was allowing her to get a good look at him.

Not knowing that by doing this, he was reducing himself to an idiot.

After seeing that Ariel wasn't saying anything, the crown prince couldn't help feeling that something was off. It was just that this fool was filled with confidence in himself that he didn't think that it was something that he could have done wrong.

His first thought was...

"It seems like she's quite the shy girl, isn't she?"

Then his second thought was...

"Well, if she's a shy girl, I guess I have no choice but to make the first move."

There wasn't a single second where he thought that she was acting this way because she didn't like him.

That was just how confident he was in himself.

With an even wider smile on his face, the crown prince came forward and said, "Miss Ariel, if possible, may I invite you for a walk on the beach?"

"No thank you." Ariel said right to his smiling face without any hesitation.

The moment that he heard this, the smile on the crown prince's face froze before it slowly faded away. His eyes slowly started to fill with shock as he just looked right at Ariel, as if he couldn't believe what he had just heard.

Ariel didn't care about the way that he looked at her.

If it wasn't for the fact that this was a meeting between the Tide Empire and the Merman Empire, she would have already left the room without a single care.

There was an awkward silence that just hung there in the air as the crown prince didn't know what to do next. After all, this was a situation that he had never encountered before.

It was already rare for him to take the initiative to invite a girl, but for her to reject him like this...

It really was the first time.

After a long awkward silence, the crown prince gave an embarrassed cough to adjust himself before saying, "Yes, it is a bit cold outside today, so how about we go relax by the fire in the

lounge?"

"Can you not hear me? I'm not interested." Once again, Ariel didn't mince her words as she directly rejected him.

The crown prince looked even more shocked after hearing this.

He just looked at her like he felt that there was something wrong with her.

Ariel didn't even bother looking at him after she rejected him as she looked around for something, anything more interesting than the crown prince.

The crown prince didn't know how to feel.

After all, he had never experienced the situation of sticking a warm face onto a cold butt before. It was always him who had ignored people, it had never been the other way around...

So now that it was happening to him, he just didn't know how to act.

As if to save him from his embarrassment, the Merman King said with a cough, "It seems that she's not interested. I think that we can just forget this matter."

The Tide Emperor had a shocked look at first before slowly knitting his brows.

The look on his face made it clear that there were more things that he wanted to say, but there wasn't anything that he could say in the end.

After all, the situation had already been embarrassing enough, so it would only make it worse if he said anything.

Regardless of what he said, it didn't seem like there would be any progress today.

So the Tide Emperor just had to suck it up and say, "It seems like we won't be able to reach an agreement today. How about we discuss this another day?"

The Merman King just gave a simple nod without saying anything, but the look in his eyes said more than enough.
