Chapter 42 It’s no use calling him husband

Wenwan's hand almost touched the orangutan sea chrysanthemum clam, but a white and tender hand grabbed the longest thorn and picked it up.

Wen Wan's pupils suddenly contracted, and she looked up at Jiang Xia abruptly. Realizing something, she tried to keep her tone calm and said softly, "Sister Jiang Xia, this thing has so many thorns. It's not good to leave it on the beach and hurt people. Should I throw it away?"

Jiang Xia carefully studied the orangutan sea chrysanthemum clam. She remembered the plot in the book. She even looked up the picture at that time, but she was not sure. She asked Zhou Chenglei: "Do you know this guy?"

"Orangutan Sea Chrysanthemum Clam." Zhou Chenglei replied.

Even if Jiang Xia didn't pick it up, he was also prepared to pick it up. There was a chance that this big guy would produce pearls, although the chance was very slim.

Jiang Xia put it into the bucket as soon as he heard it: "This thing is pretty, I'll take it back and make it into a decoration."

Wen Wan: “…”

She said unwillingly, "With so many thorns, aren't you afraid of getting pricked by accident if you bring them home? I think we should just throw them away! Sister Jiang Xia has a child at home, and the child likes to play. It would be bad if he plays with them."

Jiang Xia: "Don't be afraid, I'll install it on the wall to protect against thieves and to keep the house safe."

Wen Wan: “…”

Ah! She was so mad!

Just a little bit! Just a little bit! Who kicked it? Why didn't they kick the orangutan sea clam towards her?

Jiang Xia ignored the heroine and said to Zhou Chenglei, "I'll go to the reef and take a look."

Zhou Chenglei was worried about her being alone.

"I'll go take a look too."

Wen Wan came back to her senses: Yes, there is another pearl conch! She also hurried back to the reef to look for it.

This time, Jiang Xia must not be found first.

Neither the couple noticed Wen Wan who came inexplicably and left rashly.

After the typhoon, the sky was still gloomy and the waves were huge, but the tide gradually receded and many reefs were exposed.

The couple walked toward the reef together, bending down from time to time to pick up a shrimp or dig a shellfish from the blowhole and throw it into the bucket.

For example, white clams and clams are both delicious, and Jiang Xia also likes them.

I picked some up and brought them back to keep them in sea water. They spit out the mud the next day, but I was a little worried that I wouldn't be able to keep them alive and would die.

Now the beach is full of people picking shrimps and shellfish. There are not many people on the reef side because the waves are still big there and the sea water hits the reef from time to time.

The waves were very big, and Zhou Chenglei told Jiang Xia not to go to the place where the waves hit, but to look for it among the exposed rocks.

Jiang Xia responded.

The two of them were searching for themselves at a distance not too far from each other.

Jiang Xia quickly found a crab bigger than her palm in the crevice of the rock, and she immediately picked it up with her pincers.

When the crab saw the iron pincers reaching out, it raised its two pincers and clamped the two legs of the iron pincers, so that Jiang Xia could clamp it more firmly.

She put the crab directly into the bucket, then continued to look forward and picked up another flower crab. People here don’t like to eat this kind of crab, but Jiang Xia likes it.

It seems that after searching so hard, I can't find anything as good as I imagined.

Suddenly Jiang Xia saw a very large white conch, about the size of a watermelon, in the crevice of the reef not far away.

She didn't know if she could eat it, but she walked over anyway.

Wen Wan would occasionally look at Jiang Xia. When she saw Jiang Xia's gaze fall in a certain direction, she looked over and her pupils shrank! Conch!

The big conch! The conch that opened the pearls in her dream!

Wen Wan ran straight over.

Jiang Xia saw her running and jumped up immediately.

Damn! Do you still have any moral principles? He's clearly trying to rob me!

Zhou Chenglei saw Jiang Xia jumping and running on the rocks with a bucket in her hand, her body swaying like the bucket in her hand.

He was very nervous. If he slipped and fell, he would be seriously injured!

He ran over quickly.

Jiang Xia jumped to the conch and picked it up. Wow, it's so heavy! She held the conch and looked at Wen Wan provocatively.

Wen Wan was not as fast as Jiang Xia and was a step slower. When she saw Jiang Xia picking up the conch, she got anxious, slipped, and fell.

Wen Wan's knees were bruised and burning pain spread throughout her body, but she didn't have time to check.

She quickly got up and shouted, "Jiang Xia, that imperial conch is mine! I saw it first."

Even a person as civilized, well-mannered, gentle and pretty as Jiang Xia couldn't help but swear: "You farted! You found a fart!"

Wen Wan: “…”

Zhou Chenglei: “…”

The corners of his mouth twitched, but a smile appeared in his eyes.

Wen Wan has always been gentle and would never say such vulgar words, nor would she quarrel with others.

But when she thought of the two lost pearls, she felt so distressed that her eyes turned red. She looked at Zhou Chenglei and said, "I just found this conch, but I didn't pick it up because I thought it was too heavy. I'll pick it up when we leave. Brother Zhou, this conch is mine! Jiang Xia picked up my conch."

Jiang Xia: "No need to call you Brother Zhou. It's no use calling him husband! Even if the king of heaven comes, this conch shell will be mine too!"

Zhou Chenglei came to Jiang Xia with his long legs, ignoring Wen Wan, and said to Jiang Xia with a stern face: "What nonsense are you talking about? Why are you running? Don't you know it's dangerous?"

What do you mean by calling him husband? Can you just say that? Whose husband is he? She doesn't know. Jiang Xia: "This Bai Lian wants to steal my conch. How can I not run?"

If she doesn't run, she's stupid! Zhou Chenglei didn't understand why Jiang Xia called Wen Wan Bai Lian, but he was tactful enough not to remind her that she called her the wrong name.

Wen Wan was so angry that she died. After being reborn, she of course understood what Bai Lian meant.

She was not good at quarreling, but Jiang Xia's words also made her face turn red. She hated being spoken in a sarcastic tone, so she said to Zhou Chenglei: "Brother Zhou, I really saw this conch first, so it should be mine."

Jiang Xia: "If you see it first, it's yours? According to what you said, I was the first one to arrive at this beach, so all the seafood on the beach belongs to me, right? What are you picking up?"

Zhou Chenglei: "Whatever you see first is yours? Jiang Xia was the first to arrive, so is everything on the beach hers?"

Wen Wan: “…”

Jiang Xia and Zhou Chenglei said in unison, leaving Wen Wan speechless.

After Jiang Xia finished speaking, he couldn't help but look at Zhou Chenglei. He didn't expect that he said the same thing as him.

Zhou Chenglei ignored Wen Wan after he finished speaking. He took the conch from Jiang Xia's hand and put it in the bucket, supporting her: "Let's go! Don't run next time. It's just a conch. It's not worth it to fall."

Jiang Xia ignored him.

Zhou Chenglei added: "Nothing is more important than your body..."

Wen Wan watched Jiang Xia being supported by Zhou Chenglei as they walked away, her mumblings full of concern. She lowered her head and rolled up her trouser legs, and sure enough, her knee was scraped open, with a fleshy wound the size of a fist, which was bleeding. Suddenly, a feeling of injustice, resentment and grievance surged into her heart, and her eyes turned red.

Clearly, she was reborn, and with the golden finger she could dream about the future and gain the upper hand.

She dreamed of two pearl conches.

Moreover, she was the first to arrive at this reef, so why was she still a step behind Jiang Xia? She and Jiang Xia discovered the conch at the same time, but she kept herself farther away from it.

God is always so unfair to her!

The first pearl conch was presented to Jiang Xia, and Jiang Xia also spotted the second one at a glance. It was relatively close, allowing her to seize the initiative.

Wen Wan looked at Zhou Chenglei holding the bucket in one hand and supporting Jiang Xia with the other, and she felt even more unwilling.

Sooner or later, Zhou Chenglei will become her husband.

When she calls him husband, she does so openly and as a matter of course.

Wen Wan thought of the dream in which Zhou Chenglei saved her when she was caught in the waves. She looked at the rolling sea and walked over.

He was a soldier and would not stand by and watch someone die.
