Chapter 79: Surprise in the Blind Box
“Su Ling?”
“Don’t, don’t faint away!”
Fortunately, Mi Xue Zhou was right beside her and immediately supported Su Ling, preventing her from actually fainting.
But even so, the pink-haired girl started to cry and said, “Wuwu… Spiders, I really can’t! I hate this kind of thing, I really can’t eat it.”
The rule of the blind box game was that whoever drew a blind box had to eat whatever was inside.
But eating spiders was too much, wasn’t it?
This was no longer a joke, but a complete torment!
Therefore, Lonis looked at the Eight-tailed Fox. In her impression, only the Eight-tailed Fox would act so out of line and do something as bullying as this to a girl!
But the Eight-tailed Fox wagged her tail innocently and quickly said:
“It, it wasn’t me! Although it was my fault for making everyone’s clothes transparent last time, I would never put spiders inside. At most, I would only put some spiderwebs as a garnish!”
“Huh?”
“Then who exactly did this…”
Now, the girls were a bit at a loss.
Although they didn’t want to suspect each other, in reality, someone had really done this.
Could it be…
Had the blindly chosen boxes of the girls been swapped?
Was it that Silia who did it?
…
Elus also frowned, seemingly contemplating the situation.
However, at this moment…
Zhisheng Luo patted her forehead and shouted, “Ah, it’s bad!! I put it in, ah, ah, I forgot to explain!”
“Senior Zhisheng Luo?”
“Junior Su Ling, everyone, I’m sorry, I…”
Zhisheng Luo quickly ran to Su Ling’s side and carefully removed the blind box.
The spider was huge, looking as big as a person’s head, which was somewhat chilling.
But upon seeing this spider, Xinglu and Lian Lan also showed surprised expressions:
“This, this is…”
“Zhisheng Luo, is this the blind box you chose? I didn’t expect you to take out something so precious?!”
…
“Precious…”
The girls were stunned, and Zhisheng Luo bowed and said apologetically, “I, I’m sorry! I forgot that you guys didn’t know about this… This isn’t actually a spider, but a local specialty of our Dulan Islands called a Mao Di Crab.”
“Mao Di Crab?”
“Yes, these furry things are actually the fuzz that grew from it. These four pairs of legs are also crab legs, not spider legs…”
“!”
…
Now, the girls finally understood what was going on.
It turned out that because the light at night was a bit dim, and the appearance of the Mao Di Crab did indeed resemble a spider, Su Ling and the others had mistaken it!
However, Zhisheng Luo still sincerely apologized:
“I, I’m sorry… Su Ling, should I exchange a blind box for you? I’m really so sorry.”
“Ah, no, senior, it’s fine! Wuwu, it’s my fault for failing to appreciate your good intentions.”
Such a large crab was very valuable.
And judging by Xinglu’s reaction, Zhisheng Luo had prepared such a gift, which seemed to have taken a lot of effort.
But now that this had happened, it made Zhisheng Luo look like a bad guy who bullied others… so Su Ling was very regretful.
“Wuwu… Senior, I’m really sorry.”
“Su Ling did nothing wrong, it was my lack of consideration… If I had directly labeled it as a crab, it would have been fine. It was all me, I forgot that everyone hadn’t seen this before.”
…
The situation was a bit chaotic, but at this moment, Elus sighed and said:
“Alright, none of you are wrong. Since it’s a blind box game, it’s normal to have such small accidents, right? Su Ling, aren’t you feeling very lucky now, a sense of post-disaster joy?”
“Ah… indeed!”
“Then this is the fun of the blind box. And you guys, please look forward to it. Although what I prepared is edible, it’s also very terrifying~~~”
“Huh?”
“It’s something that the idiot Lonis will be so scared that she’ll kneel on the ground and beg for mercy at the sight of it, you know? I wonder which lucky person will eventually choose it?”
“Junior Elus, you wouldn’t have put the remote control in, would you…”
“Who would put that kind of thing in!”
…
…
Thus, although there was a small interlude.
But the subsequent blind box selection and unpacking session became even more exciting because of it.
Lonis’s chosen cookie set was finally picked by Miss Lian Lan—although it was already a very good “barbecue,” Lian Lan also showed a troubled expression.
“Lian Lan, you… do you not like sweet things?”
“No, overcoming difficulties is also a part of the hero’s path forward!”
“You don’t have to force yourself like this, right? Um, we’re just having a dinner party…”
“Then, I’ll start enjoying it. Uh… Thank you for the hospitality…”
Although Lian Lan’s forehead was furrowed into a mess while eating the cookies, she still ate them all seriously, without leaving a single one.
“Lonis, thank you. If it weren’t for your blind box, I probably would never have tasted sweets.”
“Ah, ah…”
Although it was a sense of accomplishment to have one’s chosen blind box tasted by someone else, Lonis, at least, did not want this to become a part of training!
Meanwhile, Elus’s chosen squid blind box?
It was also eaten by Candelle!
However, for this “Queen” of the Blood Race, squid had no impact at all, but instead seemed very petite and cute: “How… How surprising, someone actually chose such normal barbecue food.”
“Indeed… I wonder which partner chose it, is it Bai Ye? It seems only Bai Ye would choose such kind and gentle ingredients.”
“No, it’s not Bai Ye. I… I chose the set made with the Tranquil Fruit.”
“Tranquil Fruit?!!!”
“Ah, but it’s been sweetened, so it shouldn’t be bitter!”
“Shouldn’t be bitter, right, hmm… (Relieved sigh of escaping danger)… Then, was this chosen by Princess Cécile? Wow, I’m so happy, I actually ate Sister’s blind box.”
Candelle placed the squid on the grill to cook, already salivating happily.
And Cécile also shook her head in a panic: “It, it wasn’t me either. Hmm, although I also thought about putting squid in, in the end, I chose some jelly.”
“Hmm… So my jelly was chosen by Princess Cécile? Thank you, each jelly has a cute little animal in it, they look too adorable to eat.”
“As long as Senior Isumi feels happy. Hehe, each little animal has a different flavor, you know?”
With things having turned out this way, Elus felt embarrassed to say that the squid monster was her choice!
Because her tsundere persona was already precarious, and now she had chosen such a “cute” blind box, wouldn’t she be seen as a soft girl if she admitted it?
Therefore, Elus could only “impassively” vent all her anger on the Lonis beside her.
“Hmph, you little loli idiot, hurry up and open your blind box. Don’t dawdle.”
“Wu ah…”
Having a tsundere wife is indeed bothersome.
It seemed that even if the contents of her blind box weren’t strange, she would still be teased by Elus… Moreover, she was now sitting at the same table as Elus, so she couldn’t run away.
(However, this is also everyone’s kind intention. Let me see what’s in my blind box!)
The little loli opened the big blind box.
And what greeted her eyes was…
