"What methods does this guy plan to use to make the girl realize he's a jerk and find happiness? Is he going to just break up with her and steal her away?"
"No, no." Shi Jing shook her head repeatedly, quickly denying it. "It wasn't in this way. Although this boy has a bad temper, he still knows his limits. He knows that if he just resorts to any means to snatch her away without saying a word, it will make the girl look like she's cheating. So he came up with his own method."
"What method?" Zhu Jinchao asked again.
Shi Jing: "His method was divided into two steps. First, he wanted to make that scumbag leave the girl willingly; second, he wanted the girl to know that the scumbag didn't love her. The reason the scumbag had been unwilling to break up with her was simply because he didn't want to lose a suitable backup option."
"Hmm..." Zhu Jinzhao nodded, finding Shi Jing's method quite acceptable. However, she still had a question: "Which of these two steps comes first?"
Shi Jing thought for a moment and said, "It should be one in front and two behind, or one and two can be done at the same time."
"I see..." Zhu Jinzhao finally understood what he meant.
Shi Jing blinked, looking at her expectantly: "So, Chaochao, do you think this guy's 'homewrecker' behavior is forgivable?"
“I think…” Zhu Jinzhao squinted, thinking about the question seriously, but finally shook his head.
"This is someone else's relationship, and I can't say whether it's worth forgiving or not. I can't say."
"...Can't say?" This answer was completely unexpected by Shi Jing. Shi Jing shifted his position, angrily picked up a crab that was trying to escape, and roughly threw it into the small bucket.
"Smack—"
The crab bounced once in the bucket, splashing up a tiny drop of water.
"Okay." Although she didn't like the answer, Shi Jing understood Zhu Jinzhao's unspoken feelings. Zhu Jinzhao was indeed a bit naive, but she took other people's questions very seriously. Even if the questions were just casual remarks, she would think them over carefully before answering.
Shi Jing didn't want to force her, and was also afraid that she would say the wrong thing and be scolded in her haste, so he temporarily skipped the topic.
After pondering for a while, Zhu Jinzhao suddenly asked, "Shi Jing, why are you suddenly asking me this? Do you know this boy?"
"..." Shi Jing's eyes were empty, and he was stunned for a moment.
His brain raced, and within two seconds he came up with a brilliant excuse: "I know him. This guy is my friend. My friend has been troubled by this problem for a long time, so I thought I'd ask him for him."
[Hahaha, what a classic "I have a friend" line! Shi Jing, you're not making up a friend out of thin air, are you...?]
[Bao is making up a story! Young Master Shi is only bullying Chaochao because she's a simpleton and can't understand these things. If it were someone even slightly more clever, Bao would have seen through him instantly.]
[Huh? That doesn't make sense, does it? Shi Jing said that friend couldn't possibly be him... As far as I know, Chao Chao is currently single, so where would Shi Jing be a mistress?]
[That's right, Chaochao is single. Even if Jing wanted to be a mistress, she wouldn't have had the chance. A bunch of idiot netizens are talking nonsense. Be careful, Young Master Shi might hire a hacker to ban your accounts.]
[Does Young Master Shi know he has such awkward fans?]
I am the examinee of Jingjin's examination: [It's okay, I'll remember it for Young Master Shi. Even if he doesn't know, I have to find out! (Pervert)]
"Oh." Zhu Jinzhao trusted Shi Jing's words completely. If Shi Jing said he was asking for a friend, then he must be asking for a friend. Zhu Jinzhao had no doubt at all.
As the sun climbed higher, the sunlight on my back began to feel scorching.
Master Yu walked over at this moment and said to Zhu Jinzhao and Shi Jing, "The best time for beachcombing today ends at 10:10. It's 7:50 now, so we still have more than two hours."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Jinzhao quickly showed his small bucket to Master Yu: "Brother Yu, I've already caught a lot of seafood."
Master Yu came over for a look and immediately laughed: "Silly girl, all you've caught are shellfish and whelks. You won't be full after cooking them. You need to find some bigger ones."
Shi Jing: "Are octopuses and crabs considered large items?"
Master Yu nodded: "That's fine, but what you have in your bucket won't be enough to fill you up. Come with me, I'll take you to find some different big trucks."
"Okay!" Zhu Jinzhao immediately jumped up from the ground and stood up straight.
Shi Jing tried to imitate her by suddenly jumping up, but as soon as he straightened up, his brain felt dizzy due to insufficient blood supply.
"Ouch..." He shook his head, froze in place for two seconds, and then strode after Zhu Jinzhao.
May you walk steadily and move with strength today, with a rosy complexion and no signs of dizziness.
Shi Jing couldn't help but ask, "Chao Chao, don't you feel dizzy when you suddenly stand up from the ground?"
Zhu Jinzhao shook her head: "I don't think so. What's wrong, are you dizzy?"
"..." Shi Jing held her head high and said, "I'm not dizzy, I'm perfectly fine."
[Hahaha, Young Master Shi is really obsessed with saving face, even to the point of death!]
[Shi Jing on the surface: I'm not dizzy, I'm perfectly fine, I'm strong and healthy enough to have a baby! Shi Jing on the inside: I want to die, my head is spinning...]
[Laughs aside, aren't you all amazed by Zhu Jinzhao's physique? She squatted on the ground for so long and didn't even feel dizzy when she stood up. If it were me, I would have been dizzy and had an accident.]
Haha... To be honest, I get dizzy just standing up after tying my shoelaces. (Heart emoji)
[Zhu Jinchao's energetic appearance is more like that of a college student. Those of us who get out of breath after just a few steps are at best disabled seniors in our twenties.]
Master Yu led his two assistants across the rocky shoals and stopped near the estuary.
There are no reefs in this area, but there are a few sections of abandoned iron pipes and some oddly shaped rocks.
Mr. Yu carried the empty water bucket he had just replaced and walked to the few sections of abandoned steel pipes.
The steel pipe was covered with a thick layer of rust, and there were all sorts of messy things attached to the rust.
Master Yu put down the bucket, reached into the steel pipe and pulled out two palm-sized mussels.
"Wow!" Zhu Jinzhao exclaimed, his big, bright black eyes wide open. "There are mussels hidden in here!"
Master Yu said with a smile, "There are not only mussels here, but also oysters. Just look around this area, and you'll definitely find plenty."
"Brother Yu!" Zhu Jinzhao raised his hand politely, looking at Master Yu with hopeful eyes, "Since there are mussels and oysters here, could there be king crabs and lobsters?!"
