Chapter 504: Chapter 502 Lu Xia Getting the Certificate 8_1
"Congratulations, Miss," the Oyster Opener Master couldn’t let go of it either. After looking over and over again, he finally handed the pearl and the clam together to Xia Ningxing.
Xia Ningxing played with it for a while; the pearl was as smooth as jade and felt exquisitely fine to the touch.
"The pearl is very nice," Lu Tingli nodded, then glanced at her empty earlobes, "When we get back I’ll buy another pearl like this and make you a pair of earrings."
"I’ll listen to you," Xia Ningxing said with a flush of embarrassment on her face.
"Why buy when you still have another clam in your hand, Miss? There might be a pearl inside that one too!" The Oyster Opener Master stared eagerly at the clam, rubbing his hands together in anticipation, "Miss, shall I open this one for you too?"
Even though any pearls wouldn’t be his after opening, he could later brag about these events!
"Sure," Xia Ningxing replied without hesitation and handed it to him.
If another pearl could be found, it would save the money for buying one.
The Oyster Opener Master took it carefully, as if handling a rare treasure, swallowed nervously, and then picked up his tools to continue opening.
Seeing this, everyone crowded around once more.
Feeling a bit cramped, Xia Ningxing asked Lu Tingli to stay and watch on her behalf while she stepped out of the circle to find a place to sit down.
Afterwards, she watched Xiaoyu with a playful smile, not far away and looking embarrassed, and reminded him, "Little boy, you lost."
"Hmph!" Xiaoyu’s face turned red with embarrassment, never having imagined that he, a proud young man, would lose to a girl.
His fair skin turned bright red as he stuttered, "Losing, losing is whatever. Grandpa said that victory and defeat are common in war, there’s, there’s nothing to fuss about!"
His words said one thing, but his heart couldn’t accept the defeat.
If he had lost to a pretty girl, it might have been fine, but now he had lost to an ugly girl, and that was an insult to him!
Xia Ningxing could see what the boy was thinking and was about to make a sarcastic remark when, unexpectedly...
The boy ran over and pulled off the mask on her face.
Shit!
Can’t he accept a loss?
The moment the mask came off, Xia Ningxing’s stunning beauty was revealed.
The girl’s face was fair and delicate, like flawless milk, her eyes clear and distinct with a hint of enchantment, bewitchingly alluring.
Her elegant nose was high and straight, and her lips were a lustrous red.
The entire face was the epitome of perfect craftsmanship.
This ’ugly girl’ was actually so beautiful!
Xiaoyu was completely dumbfounded, staring unblinkingly at her radiant beauty.
But why was she covering up such a beautiful face?
If he had known she was this beautiful, he definitely wouldn’t have been so mean to her!
No, something’s wrong!
Xiaoyu finally realized something was off and couldn’t help muttering to himself, "Your face, how is it so similar to my wife Baby Xing’s?"
Xia Ningxing furrowed her brows, "When did I become your wife?"
"!" Hearing her say this, now it was Xiaoyu’s turn to be shocked.
It took him a moment to finally react with astonishment, "You, you, you’re Baby Xing?"
"Shh, keep your voice down," Xia Ningxing snatched back her mask and put it back on her face.
Luckily everyone had run off to open clams, or else she would have immediately turned into a zoo monkey for people to gawk at.
"Little brat, don’t go spilling my identity, understand?" Xia Ningxing warned him, slightly annoyed.
It wasn’t often she and Lu had the chance to travel; she didn’t want to be surrounded by people asking for autographs or photos all the time.
Right now, all she wanted was to be an ordinary couple with Lu Tingli and happily explore the underwater world.
Xiaoyu nodded dumbly, clearly still not quite over the fact that she was Baby Xing.
Who could tell her why she ended up being Baby Xing!
Ahhhh!
She was his favorite female celebrity and the daughter-in-law he longed for in his dreams!
He had it all figured out; he would confess to her when he grew up and ask her to be his wife!
But now, well...
He had been so mean to her!
He even acted shamelessly just a moment ago, forcefully removing her mask when he lost the bet, trying to embarrass her.
With such terrible behavior, how could she possibly accept him!
"Wah!"
The more Xiaoyu thought about it, the sadder he became, until he simply sat down on the ground and started wailing.
Xia Ningxing was startled by his sudden outburst, "Hey, why are you crying!"
She hadn’t revoked his fan membership! What’s there to be sad about!
Xiaoyu was crying too hard to catch his breath, let alone answer her question.
Everyone was disturbed by the crying and turned to look at the two of them.
"What happened?" Lu Tingli asked with a furrowed brow, then looked Xia Ningxing up and down. Seeing she was unharmed, he felt relieved.
Xia Ningxing: "..." Lu didn’t think she was being bullied by the bratty kid, did he?
"After I mentioned the bet to him, he started crying." Then, Xia Ningxing passed the buck, not willing to admit that it was her identity which had scared him into crying.
Hearing this, the Base Commander’s wife immediately understood and shook her head speechlessly, pulling Xiaoyu over, "You brat, you lost, so what’s with the tears? I feel ashamed for you!"
Xiaoyu glanced at her pitifully, "You don’t understand, none of you do. I’m not crying over that!"
He was clearly crying because his image in Xia Ningxing’s heart had been destroyed!
Compared to the outcome of the bet, this was what mattered most!
"I..." Just as he was about to say that Xia Ningxing was Baby Xing, he suddenly remembered that Baby Xing did not want to be exposed.
He had no choice but to swallow the words that reached his mouth.
"Alright, stop crying." The Base Commander’s wife just thought he was stubborn and, after wiping his face with a tissue, reminded him, "Xiaoyu, a man must honor his promises. You must never bother Miss Xia again, you got that?"
"Don’t worry, I definitely won’t do that again!" Xiaoyu immediately nodded vigorously without a second’s hesitation.
She was his wife now, and he couldn’t spoil her enough!
Lucky for Xia Ningxing that she had no idea what he was thinking, or else she would probably kick him straight into the sea.
Who the hell is his wife!
Just a little brat!
Seeing how readily he agreed and with no sign of unwillingness on his face, the Base Commander’s wife arched her eyebrows in surprise.
Could the kid have taken the wrong medicine?
Although she had her doubts, the Base Commander’s wife didn’t ponder it deeply.
At that moment, the oyster had been opened.
Oyster Opener Master announced excitedly, "There are pearls! There are pearls! And several of them!"
How could a small oyster yield so many pearls?
Is that even possible?
People who had been watching Xiaoyu cry now lifted their gazes towards Oyster Opener Master’s hands.
They hadn’t cared much at first, but upon looking, everyone’s eyes couldn’t help but redden.
