Chapter 500: Chapter 498 Lu Xia Getting the Certificate 4_1

Ever since the Base Commander’s wife chased him with a stick yesterday, he had already seen Xia Ningxing as a thorn in his flesh, and he swore to himself that he must expose Xia Ningxing’s ugly face in front of everyone.

To make her lose face completely!

The reason he thought Xia Ningxing was ugly was because he found it extremely odd that she always covered her face.

If she wasn’t terribly ugly or disfigured, then why would she do such a thing?

"Seriously, I’m even better than this kid; I know to get up early!" Xiaoyu kept babbling complaints: "If I ever find a wife in the future, I definitely won’t choose this kind!"

As he spoke, he lifted his chin with an air of arrogance.

If he were to find a wife, he would only choose a girl like Baby Xing who is beautiful, kind-hearted, skilled in medicine, and can cook!

Upon hearing this, everyone couldn’t help but burst into laughter, amusedly watching him.

A young kid whose hair hadn’t even fully grown, already thinking about getting married—were they trying to laugh themselves to death with his antics?

Lu Tingli couldn’t help but lift his gaze to stare at the kid, gruffly saying, "First of all, there’s no sun here to shine on your butt; secondly, my girl wouldn’t be interested in you, so stop flattering yourself!"

Lu Tingli didn’t bother to mince his words just because the kid was young.

Xiaoyu immediately glared back with indignation: "What’s wrong with how I look? I’m clearly very handsome!"

"I’m telling you, even if your girl was willing to marry me, I wouldn’t want her. I am Baby Xing’s man, no other woman can even think about it!"

"Please go to the bathroom," Lu Tingli suddenly said.

"?" Xiaoyu was genuinely confused: "What do you mean by that?"

Lu Tingli added four more words: "Take a look at yourself."

"!!!"

This was simply asking him to pee and take a good look at himself!

Xiaoyu gnashed his teeth: "Lu Tingli, you’ve gone too far!"

This was an outright insult to his character, and Xiaoyu felt his little heart was hurt as tears welled up uncontrollably: "Wuwuwu!"

After all, he was just a child, and when he couldn’t outtalk an adult, he immediately switched to the shameless tactic of crying.

Lu Tingli: "..."

"A man still crying like that, aren’t you embarrassed!" At that moment, the Base Commander walked over, looking at his son who was sobbing heavily: "I think Chief Lu is right; you should really take a piss and look at yourself. Do you think you’re worthy of Baby Xing with that attitude?"

"You’re like a toad lusting after swan meat, beyond your reach!"

Compared to Lu Tingli, the Base Commander, his actual father, was clearly more proficient at putting someone down.

"Wah!"

Xiaoyu immediately cried even louder, mortified to the core, stomped his feet, and then covered his face and ran out.

How was he not worthy of Baby Xing!

Those words really struck at his heart, didn’t they!

Seeing this, the sisters-in-law in the dining room almost bent over laughing: "Ahahaha!"

Is this really his father?

"Little Lu, I’m really sorry, this child has been spoiled since he was young, and he speaks without respect for elders," the Base Commander said with an embarrassed face, but mostly helpless.

Which parent didn’t wish for their child to become a promising prospect, yet they ended up dealing with such headaches.

Lu Tingli shook his head: "You’re thinking too much; I’m not so petty."

The Base Commander smiled at him, then looked at the lunchbox in his hand: "Did you pack lunch for your wife?"

"Yes," Lu Tingli nodded.

The Base Commander urged, "Then go quickly, otherwise it won’t taste good once it cools."

As he turned to leave, he added, "Oh, by the way, we just harvested a batch of sea clams, and everyone can have one. Remember to bring your wife to pick one too, Lu. It’s a free benefit you shouldn’t pass up. Who knows, you might find a pearl!" He said with a laugh.

"Okay, I’ll go ask my wife right now," Lu Tingli nodded.

By the time he returned, Xia Ningxing had just finished her bath and was now drying her hair with a towel.

"Ningxing, it’s time to eat."

In front of her, Lu Tingli immediately dropped his icy armor and placed the lunchbox before her.

"Thank you, Lu!" Xia Ningxing picked up the chopsticks while looking at him: "Have you eaten yet?"

"Not yet," Lu Tingli shook his head.

Xia Ningxing handed him a pair as well: "Then let’s eat together."

Lu Tingli accepted them, then relayed what the Base Commander had told him.

"Sea clams?" Xia Ningxing blinked as she ate.

"Yes." Lu Tingli nodded. "Do you want to go get one?"

"Yes, yes, yes! Of course!" Xia Ningxing’s eyes lit up immediately as she replied eagerly.

This is too good an opportunity to pass up!

If she happened to find a pearl, she could sell it for some money!

Considering that sea clams rarely produce pearls, and they can only spawn one at a time with such a long growth cycle and of such high quality, they are very valuable.

Although...

For families like the Xia family and the Lu Family, it really wasn’t much.

Lu Tingli took a sip of water, his Adam’s apple bobbing, and then chuckled, "Little money-grubber."

Xia Ningxing felt embarrassed: "Even a mosquito is meat!"

"Absolutely right, if we find a pearl, we can sell it and buy diapers for our child in the future," Lu Tingli said with a smirk.

A few lines of confusion crossed Xia Ningxing’s forehead, and then, as if something had occurred to her, she hastily asked, "Speaking of which, did you... forget to... last night?"

"No." Lu Tingli coughed lightly. "It wasn’t intentional, I didn’t expect that we would..."

"It’s okay, it’s okay, you were unprepared but I always carry medicine with me!" Xia Ningxing said while digging out the medicine from her purse.

Seeing her pour out a handful of pills to pop in her mouth, Lu Tingli panicked, "Don’t eat that, it’s harmful."

Xia Ningxing gave him a reassuring look: "Don’t worry, I made these myself, they won’t have any adverse effects on the body."

"Do you really have to take it?" Lu Tingli’s brow furrowed again, almost tight enough to trap a fly.

Seeing his expression, Xia Ningxing couldn’t help but tug at the corner of her lips.

To someone in the know, she was just taking a pill, but to anyone else, it might look like she was deciding to get an abortion.

emmm!

She couldn’t help but sigh. How could she not know what he was thinking? "Lu, it’s not that I don’t want to have children with you but I have a movie to shoot next and now’s not the right time for a child."

Ruan Ruanruan’s upcoming script was an action movie, where the heroine is either handling knives or wielding swords, zipping around on wires. If she were pregnant, that would be impossible.

"If that’s the case, then go ahead and take it, I’ll get you some water," Lu Tingli relented and got up to give her some lukewarm, palatable water.

He cared more about her than about having a child.

Xia Ningxing took the water glass, fingers grinding against the glass for a moment: "Lu, are you upset with me?"

She bit her lip and looked up at his silent face.
