Chapter 531: Chapter 531: The Aunt with Ulterior Motives (1st update)
After the dolphin show had ended, the two little girls bid a reluctant farewell to the dolphins and left the dolphin pavilion.
“Sister, where are we going now?” Nian Nian asked.
“To see the big sharks!” Xiang Xiang said.
“Ah… What’s so good about that, it’s terrifying!”
“Terrifying?” Xiang Xiang asked.
Nian Nian nodded, “Isn’t it terrifying?”
“That’s because you’re not seeing it right! Just imagine what sharks would look like without teeth, and you’ll find them actually quite adorable!”
After thinking hard for a while with her head tilted, Nian Nian laughed, her eyes curving into crescents, “That’s true, without teeth the sharks do seem cute and cuddly!”
“Let’s go! First, let’s get ourselves two tubs of ice cream, then we’ll go see the sharks, and after that we’ll take a cab home!”
“Mhm!” Upon hearing ice cream mentioned, Nian Nian couldn’t help but show her excitement.
While the two girls were discussing their plans, a soft female voice came from behind, “Hello, two little beauties!”
Xiang Xiang and Nian Nian turned to look.
They saw a woman, about twenty-seven or twenty-eight, whose appearance could barely be considered delicate, squatting on the ground, smiling at them.
“Hello, auntie!” the two little girls said politely.
“Er…” The woman’s expression turned slightly embarrassed, “Call me sister!”
“Okay, auntie! Is there something you need, auntie?” Xiang Xiang asked.
This time, the woman chose to ignore Xiang Xiang’s reference and said with a smile, “Where are you two little beauties off to?”
“To see the sharks!”
“What a coincidence! I also want to see the sharks. Can we go together?” the woman suggested eagerly, her face the picture of sincerity.
“Sure!” Xiang Xiang and Nian Nian had no suspicions and nodded right away.
“Then let’s get to know each other! My name is Xu Jiaojiao. What are your names, beauties?”
“I’m Xiang Xiang!”
“I’m Nian Nian!”
“What lovely names! Are you twins?”
“Yes, we are!”
Xu Jiaojiao was now very excited, feeling that her recent streak of bad luck had finally come to an end.
Ever since the Sect issued the order for its disciples scattered abroad to find children with Spiritual Energy, Xu Jiaojiao had been tirelessly searching for suitable candidates.
But where could you find so many children with Spiritual Energy these days?
Not to mention children with Spiritual Energy, it was also difficult to approach regular children because they were always accompanied by parents when outside.
Xu Jiaojiao dared not do anything too extreme.
In Hua Country, kidnapping was an undoubtedly capital crime.
Even if the law couldn’t punish her, the righteous would pursue her relentlessly.
As the Sect’s deadline approached, she still hadn’t found anyone.
Xu Jiaojiao felt an overwhelming sense of dread.
She knew full well the Sect’s methods.
If she couldn’t produce any children with appropriate qualities by the deadline, she would unquestionably face death.
So, Xu Jiaojiao was at her wits’ end, as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
Today, she had come to the aquarium to try her luck. After walking around and not finding any suitable children, she reluctantly headed to the dolphin pavilion for one last attempt.
It was there, in the audience seats, she saw Xiang Xiang and Nian Nian playing with the dolphins.
Xu Jiaojiao was overjoyed.
