It's Useless Even If You Call Him Husband

Wen Wan's hand almost touched the Orangutan Sea Chrysanthemum Clam when a fair hand grabbed its longest thorn and picked it up.

Wen Wan's pupils constricted violently. She abruptly looked up at Sister Jiang Xia, 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 to hurt people. Should I throw it away?"

Sister Jiang Xia carefully studied the Orangutan Sea Chrysanthemum Clam in her hand. She remembered the plot from the book, and she had even specifically looked up pictures, but she wasn't sure. She asked Brother Zhou, "Do you recognize this guy?"

"Orangutan Sea Chrysanthemum Clam," Brother Zhou replied.

Even if Sister Jiang Xia didn't pick it up, he was planning to. This big guy had a chance of producing pearls, although the chance was very small.

As soon as Sister Jiang Xia heard that, she put it in the bucket. "This guy is quite pretty. I'll take it back to use as a decoration."

Wen Wan: "..."

She didn't give up and said, "With so many thorns, aren't you afraid of accidentally getting pricked when you bring it home? I think you should still throw it away! Doesn't Sister Jiang Xia have a child at home? Children are playful, and it wouldn't be good if they played with it."

Sister Jiang Xia: "Don't worry, I'll put it on the wall to ward off thieves and protect the house."

Wen Wan: "..."

Ah! She was so angry!

Just a little bit! Just a little bit! Who kicked it? Why didn't they kick this Orangutan Sea Chrysanthemum Clam towards her?

Sister Jiang Xia ignored the female lead and said to Brother Zhou, "I'll continue to look over by the reef."

Brother Zhou was worried about her being alone.

"I'll go take a look too."

Wen Wan then came back to her senses: Right, there's also a Pearl Conch! She quickly ran back to the reef to look for it.

This time, she absolutely couldn't let Sister Jiang Xia find it first.

The couple didn't notice Wen Wan, who had come and gone inexplicably.

After the Typhoon, the sky was still gloomy, and the waves were large, but the tide was gradually receding, and many reefs were exposed.

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

White Clams and Flower Crabs were quite delicious, and Sister Jiang Xia loved to eat them.

They picked some to take back and kept them in seawater. The next day, they would spit out all the mud, but she was a little afraid that they wouldn't survive and would die.

Now the beach was full of people picking shrimp and shellfish. There weren't many people near the reef, because the waves were still large there, and seawater would occasionally hit the reef.

The waves were very large, and Brother Zhou told Sister Jiang Xia not to go to the places where the waves were hitting, but to look in the exposed reef.

Sister Jiang Xia responded.

The two searched separately, keeping a distance that was neither too close nor too far.

Sister Jiang Xia quickly found a crab in a crack in the rock that was bigger than her palm. She immediately picked it up with tongs.

When the crab saw the iron tongs reaching over, it raised its two pincers and clamped the two legs of the iron tongs, so Sister Jiang Xia clamped it even more firmly.

She directly put the crab into the bucket and continued to look forward, picking up another Flower Crab. People here didn't like to eat this, but Sister Jiang Xia did.

After searching like this, it didn't seem like she could find as many good things as she had imagined.

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

She didn't know if it was edible, but she still walked over.

Wen Wan occasionally paid attention to Sister Jiang Xia. Seeing Sister Jiang Xia's gaze fixed in a certain direction, she looked over and her pupils shrank! A conch!

A big conch! The conch in her dream that produced pearls!

Wen Wan ran over directly.

When Sister Jiang Xia saw her running, she immediately jumped up.

Damn it! Where was the sportsmanship? She clearly wanted to snatch it!

Seeing Sister Jiang Xia carrying a bucket and jumping and running on the reef, her body swaying like the bucket in her hand, Brother Zhou's heart was in his throat. If she slipped and fell, it would be no small matter!

He quickly ran over.

Jiang Xia made a few leaps and arrived in front of the conch, picking it up directly. Goodness, it was heavy! She held the conch, looking at Wen Wan provocatively.

Wen Wan wasn't as fast as Jiang Xia and was a step behind. Seeing Jiang Xia pick up the conch, she got anxious, her foot slipped, and she fell.

Wen Wan's knees were scraped, and a burning pain spread throughout her body, but she couldn't bother to check.

She hurriedly got up and shouted, "Jiang Xia, that Emperor Tang Guan Conch is mine! I saw it first."

Jiang Xia, such a civilized, high-quality, gentle, and beautiful person, couldn't help but curse: "You're talking nonsense! You found my ass!"

Wen Wan: "..."

Zhou Chenglei: "..."

The corner of his mouth twitched slightly, but his eyes were tinged with a smile.

Wen Wan had always been gentle, and she really couldn't say such rude words, nor would she argue with people.

But thinking of the two pearls she missed, her heart ached, and her eyes turned red. She looked at Zhou Chenglei: "I just found this conch, but I thought it was too heavy to pick up, so I was going to pick it up when I left. Brother Zhou, this conch is mine! Jiang Xia picked up my conch."

Jiang Xia: "There's no need to call him Brother Zhou, it's useless even if you call him your husband! Even if the Heavenly King came, this conch is mine!"

Zhou Chenglei strode to Jiang Xia's side, ignoring Wen Wan, and said to Jiang Xia with a dark face, "What nonsense are you talking about? Why are you running? Don't you know it's dangerous?"

What husband? Could such words be said randomly? Whose husband was he? Was she not clear? Jiang Xia: "This White Lotus wants to snatch my conch, how could I not run?"

If she didn't run, she would be stupid! Zhou Chenglei didn't understand why Jiang Xia called Wen Wan a White Lotus, but he tactfully didn't remind her that she had misspoken.

Wen Wan was furious. Having been reborn, she naturally understood what White Lotus meant.

She couldn't argue, and Jiang Xia's words made her blush. She hated the sarcastic tone and said to Zhou Chenglei, "Brother Zhou, I really saw this conch first, it should be mine."

Jiang Xia: "Just because you saw it first, it's yours? According to you, I was the first to arrive at this beach, so aren't all the seafood on the entire beach mine? What are you picking?"

Zhou Chenglei: "Just because you saw it first, it's yours? Jiang Xia arrived first, so isn't everything on the entire beach hers?"

Wen Wan: "..."

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

After Jiang Xia finished speaking, she couldn't help but glance at Zhou Chenglei, not expecting him to say almost the same thing as her.

After Zhou Chenglei finished speaking, he ignored Wen Wan. He reached out and 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 helped away by Zhou Chenglei, his mumbling full of concern. She lowered her head and rolled up her trouser legs. Her knees were indeed scraped, with a wound the size of a fist, and it was bleeding. Immediately, a wave of injustice, unwillingness, and grievance surged into her heart, and her eyes turned red.

She had clearly been reborn, had a golden finger that allowed her to dream of the future, and gained the upper hand.

She had even dreamed of two Pearl Conches.

And she was the first to arrive at this reef area, so why was she still a step slower than Jiang Xia? She and Jiang Xia discovered the conch at the same time, but she was farther away from the conch.

The heavens were always so unfair to her!

The first Pearl Conch was delivered to Jiang Xia, and the second was also discovered by Jiang Xia at a glance, and she was relatively close, allowing her to seize the opportunity.

Wen Wan looked at Zhou Chenglei carrying the bucket in one hand and gently supporting Jiang Xia with the other, and the unwillingness in her heart grew even greater.

Sooner or later, Zhou Chenglei would become her husband.

She would call him husband openly and rightfully.

Wen Wan thought of Zhou Chenglei saving her from being swept into the waves in her dream. She looked at the sea with rolling waves and walked over.

He was a soldier and wouldn't stand by and watch someone die.
