Chapter 609: Chapter 607 Why_1
Xia Ningxing winked at him and returned two heart-stabbing words, "Very much!"
Lu Tingli’s face immediately soured.
Xia Ningxing quickly shook his arm, "Come on, Lu, I was just joking with you. You’re not really angry, are you?"
"Not at all!" He said, but it was clear that Lu Tingli was indeed angry, and then at a moment when they were alone, he fiercely pushed her into a secluded spot and pinned her against the wall.
Followed by a round of intense kissing.
...
By the time they went back for lunch, Xia Ningxing’s lips were swollen.
Upon seeing this, Chuanchuan immediately stared at her with big, curious eyes, then in a babyish voice asked, "Mom... Mommy... your lips... lips... swollen... "
The little guy tried to express himself with his fuzzy ability to speak.
Xia Ningxing’s face instantly reddened at a visible rate, and thinking back to what had happened earlier, she glared fiercely at Lu Tingli in secret.
However, the latter was completely calm, as if it had nothing to do with him.
Chuanchuan stared with big eyes again, "Red... it’s red... your face is red again."
Xia Ningxing felt both awkward and embarrassed at this moment, wishing she could find a crack to crawl into.
"Can’t you keep your mouth shut, just eat your meal quietly, you little rascal." Lu Tingli, seeing him stammering on and on, immediately fed him a spoonful of puree into his mouth.
The little guy then looked like a hamster that had stolen some corn, with his cheeks bulging full as he chewed the food in his mouth instinctively.
Finally, the little fella closed his mouth, and Xia Ningxing’s burning face gradually returned to normal.
Being cross-examined by a child about ’that’ ’that,’ this feeling was truly hard to put into words!
Mrs. Xia Ning, on the other hand, covered her mouth and snickered a few times, naturally knowing what was going on as someone who had been through it.
However, they all underestimated Chuanchuan’s curiosity; after finishing the meal, he continued to ask.
"Why... why is it... swollen?" The little guy continued to stare at Xia Ningxing’s mouth with a face full of inquiry, not understanding how it had ended up like this.
Xia Ningxing, feeling both embarrassed and helpless, knew she had to give him an explanation today, or the little guy would never let it go, so she could only fib, "Mommy was bitten by a bee."
She let out a sigh, glancing at Lu Tingli as she spoke.
Yes, bitten by that bee!
"Bad... bad bee... hit it... bit Mommy!" The little guy’s chubby baby face immediately puffed up with indignation, as if he wished he could personally take care of the bee.
Lu Tingli’s face turned from black to purple, and then back to black, finally squeezing out a few words through clenched teeth to the little one, "Sooner or later, you’ll get bitten too."
Chuanchuan’s eyes widened immediately, and he hurriedly covered his mouth, as if afraid that a bee might come to bite him.
He certainly didn’t want to be bitten by a bee!
It wasn’t until many years later that the little guy realized that this ’bite’ was not that ’bite,’ and this ’bee’ was not that ’bee.’
The exam period lasted for five days.
There was one assessment project each day.
The second day’s test was about pulse diagnosis and treatment.
That day, there were many patients in the exam venue, but they were all separated behind curtains, only stretching their wrists out to the candidates.
Contestants could only rely on taking the pulse to judge what illness they had, and then write down the diagnosis and treatment on the exam paper separately.
As the words "begin the assessment" fell, Xia Ningxing and the others immediately began to take the pulse.
The Ning Family knew that pulse diagnosis was Xia Ningxing’s weak point, so they were all waiting to see her make a fool of herself.
But regrettably, Xia Ningxing remained just as composed as she was in the first exam, moving effortlessly.
After the exam ended, everyone couldn’t help discussing—
"Did you see that? Xia Ningxing seemed quite confident in the second exam too!"
"Have you forgotten what her real job is? An actress! It’s all just an act!"
"I think so too!"
"Tsk! Such great actors!"
"They’re all Oscar-worthy, how could they not know how to act?"
When Xia Ningxing and her family of three were walking on the street, they heard a lot of gossip and scornful looks around them.
Xia Ningxing chose to ignore it.
Instead of wasting her breath,
Xia Ningxing could ignore it, but Chuanchuan and Lu Tingli couldn’t bear it.
"Chuanchuan, do you find the barking dogs around us noisy?" Lu Tingli suddenly asked.
As a civilized person, even if you’re insulting someone, you should do it with elegance.
"Noisy! Very noisy! Dogs!!" The little guy was very clever, instantly understanding what his dad meant. He nodded immediately, his baby voice not stumbling even once.
Moreover, he deliberately shouted it out loud, making many faces around them turn dark and sour.
They wanted to take issue with it, but since they weren’t directly named as dogs, if they spoke up, wouldn’t that be like admitting it?
So, many just snorted coldly and left with a flick of their sleeves.
Xia Ningxing looked up at her son and husband, who were so protective, and couldn’t help but embrace them, "It’s so nice to have you both."
The feeling of someone sticking up for you!
So nice!
"It’s nice... nice to have Mommy... Mommy!" Chuanchuan said in a milky voice, clapping his hands.
"It’s nice to have you," Lu Tingli said as well.
Xia Ningxing’s smile deepened.
This father and son really knew how to make someone happy!
The next challenge consisted of three more rounds.
The third round was to upgrade and modify prescriptions.
The fourth round was to test acupuncture skills, which play a significant role in traditional Chinese medicine and are therefore very important.
The fifth round was to personally go into the wild to gather herbs, which actually tested the survival skills of the future Family Head.
The wilderness was full of fierce beasts and poisonous insects.
It could be said that this round was very dangerous.
The proctor picked up the microphone and said, "I’m sure everyone is aware that this round is dangerous, so we will distribute a distress fireworks to each of you. If you encounter danger, you can set off the fireworks, and guards will come to rescue you..."
"However, this will also mean forfeiting your place, and all previous rounds’ scores will become null and void," the proctor raised his voice seriously.
"Has everyone understood clearly?"
"Understood!" all contestants answered in unison.
Then a guard came to distribute the distress fireworks.
Even with this item, Lu Tingli was still worried and repeatedly instructed Xia Ningxing, "Be sure to be careful. Life comes first, don’t try to be brave, and do things within your limits."
He had said it so many times that Xia Ningxing went from confidently promising with a loud voice to simply deflating in the end.
"I know, I know..." Xia Ningxing replied listlessly.
"I’m doing this for your own good," Lu Tingli patted her head.
"I know, but Lu, you don’t have to worry too much, I’ll come back safely!" Xia Ningxing said with a smile, making a group promise.
"Safe! Safe!" Chuanchuan kept muttering.
"Don’t worry, Mommy will come back safe. Be good," Xia Ningxing said, before she followed the group into the nearby forest.
