Chapter 236 Who's the coward? Don't cry if you lose.
Miao Yuliu and the others were stunned. They never imagined that the island belonged to Ning Moran, and they were speechless for a moment.
"Alright, just focus on your job and get back to work." Ning Moran gestured to the staff not to disturb him and his mother.
The staff members quickly turned their attention to Miao Yuliu and the others.
If it weren't for their encouragement and instigation, he wouldn't have come to the boss's place to cause trouble!
The staff member's expression turned sour. He lowered his voice and snapped, "You lot, return the seashells and corals you took right now, or I'll call security!"
Tourists who had come to watch the spectacle looked at Miao Yuliu with mocking eyes.
Miao Yuliu and the others were extremely embarrassed. Their original intention was to have everyone come and laugh at Luo Xiyao, but they never expected that they would become the laughing stock themselves. Wasn't this a case of trying to steal a chicken but losing the rice instead?
Miao Yuliu didn't want to continue being a clown here, so she pushed her roommates out and told them to quickly return the seashells and corals.
At the same time, he walked up to Ning Yao and said provocatively, "Luo Xiyao, do you have the guts to compete with us?"
Ning Yao was holding a plastic bucket, looking at the clownfish inside. After hearing Miao Yuliu's voice, she slowly raised her head. Her eyes were clear and bright, and with the fashionable and beautiful swimsuit she was wearing, she looked like a blue sea princess who was not of this world.
Miao Yuliu felt a surge of displeasure. Why was Ning Yao always the center of attention wherever she went, being so beautiful and all-natural?
"A competition?" Ning Yao's eyebrows twitched slightly, as if she was considering Miao Yuliu's suggestion.
"You don't have the guts to compete with me, do you? I'm a complete beginner at diving; I've never done diving before."
“Almost all the girls here are beginners, there are no veterans, so the competition is very fair, isn’t it?” Miao Yuliu said, hands on her hips.
"But why should I accept your invitation to the competition?" Ning Yao asked casually with a slight smile.
Cui Mengmeng was displeased and stepped forward to block Ning Yao, looking warily at Miao Yuliu.
"Miao Yuliu, what kind of wicked idea are you thinking of now? We're here for a vacation, we're not in the mood to compete with you."
"Oh, you guys are such cowards. We're all at the same level. It's just a casual competition, there's no betting involved, what are you afraid of?"
"Forget it, don't you guys know what kind of person Xin Yujue is? When Yu Liu said she wanted her role, she just gave it up. She's such a coward. Anyone who hangs out with her is a coward."
"Cui Mengmeng isn't much better. So, people who live in the same dormitory tend to have similar personalities. There's a saying that goes, 'Birds of a feather flock together.'"
Miao Yuliu's sycophantic girlfriends started to speak up, venting their frustrations about collecting seashells and corals.
"Who are you calling a coward? If Miao Yuliu hadn't used those disgusting methods, would Xiao Jue have withdrawn from the competition? How dare you say that?" Cui Mengmeng was furious. She never expected that people could be so shameless.
Xin Yujue tugged at Cui Mengmeng, unhappy that her roommate was being bullied.
People like Miao Yuliu only get more enthusiastic the more you pay attention to them, so it's better to just ignore them.
"Okay, we can agree to the match, but there has to be a wager. I never play matches without wagers..."
"If you lose, I want you to publicly apologize on the school forum for Xiaojue's withdrawal from the competition!"
"Of course, if we lose, you can also make demands, and both parties can sign a betting contract to prevent reneging on the agreement later."
Just as the two sides were arguing loudly, Ning Yao's clear and cold voice suddenly rang out, instantly breaking the war of words between them.
Xin Yujue glanced at Ning Yao in surprise, a feeling of being moved welling up inside her.
This is the second time Ning Yao has stood up for her.
"Sure." Miao Yuliu smiled triumphantly when she saw that Ning Yao was willing to compete.
"If you lose, I want each of you to record a video message saying that you are a prostitute!"
"Agreed, we can sign the betting contract now. Whoever reneges is a dog!"
Miao Yuliu and her friends got excited. This bet was a good deal. If they lost, Miao Yuliu would have to apologize publicly. If they won, Luo Xiyao and her group would lose face. They wouldn't be implicated either way!
"Yaoyao, do we really have to compete with them?" Xin Yujue was a little worried. She already had a grudge against Miao Yuliu, and she was willing to confront and go against her, but Luo Xiyao and Cui Mengmeng were innocent. If they lost...
Xin Yujue didn't want her two best friends to pay the price for her reputation.
"Of course we'll compete! No one can bully my friend, Luo Xiyao!" Ning Yao said firmly.
“Then, if I lose, I'll just record the video myself.” Xin Yujue changed this clause in the betting contract.
Just as he was about to negotiate with Miao Yuliu, he saw that his two roommates had already signed the bet and happily handed it over.
"Let's choose a tourist who has no connection with any of us as the referee. I believe their decision will be fair," Miao Yuliu thought for a moment and then added.
“Yes, in short, we can’t let the staff on the island be the referees. They’re all Ning Moran’s people, and they might be biased and let the game go unpunished,” said the first sycophant.
"Mmm," Ning Yao replied casually, and started warming up on the shore.
She needs to warm up before going into the water to avoid muscle cramps, which would be troublesome.
Cui Mengmeng also started warming up with Ning Yao. The two of them moved in basically the same way, their expressions full of strong determination to fight for their friends.
Xin Yujue was initially worried, but seeing how seriously Cui Mengmeng and Luo Xiyao were taking the competition, her eyes flickered, and a fighting spirit ignited in her chest, as if a raging fire had been set off.
Her friends are all working hard for her, how can she give up?
“There are many grouper in this deep-sea area. Whoever catches one first wins,” Miao Yuliu proposed.
Grouper is a deep-sea fish, and you have to dive to at least 200 meters to see it. If Ning Yao goes down to that depth, something bad is bound to happen.
"Let's do it your way." Ning Yao nodded in agreement.
Once both sides are ready, they will go into the water.
Ning Moran was a little worried, so he grabbed Ning Yao's hand before she went into the water.
"Mom, are you sure you can do it?" Ning Moran knew that Ning Yao had sea phobia, which was why she was worried.
Ning Moran was unaware that during the time they disappeared, Ning Yao had already overcome some of the difficulties with Wen Tingye's help.
"Don't worry, I can do it." Ning Yao patted her son's hand reassuringly and smiled gently.
Nothing is insurmountable. The more you fear something, the more you should try to overcome it until you are no longer afraid.
When Miao Yuliu saw Ning Moran and Ning Yao holding hands, she felt a sharp pang of sorrow, and a fierce glint flashed in her eyes.
Once Ning Yao has an accident in the water, and Ning Yao is no longer in the world, who else can Ning Moran like?
