Chapter 772: Don’t Be Scared, Leave It To Me.

Lea raised a fire before putting a flat stone plate on the fire rack. He placed the shellfish on the plate, which all opened up after a while.

Fresh, organic seafood didn’t contain any impurities and Gu Mengmeng just used a simple marinade to flavor the shellfish, before using skewering the shellfish meat on a tree branch to roast.

No choice. There were no baking pans here and they could only eat cooked shellfish roasted on skewers.

Boiled shellfish... tsk, not interested.

After Gu Mengmeng demonstrated the first skewer, she handed the cooking task over to Lea. Gu Mengmeng was more interested in the hard shell itself. That nameless shell emanated a rainbow-like glow under the sun. Gu Mengmeng and Melinda each took one and couldn’t bear to put them down. Especially after discovering a few pearls in one of the shells—the two females became as excited as if they had just discovered a new country.

The pearls were as luminous as the shells, but wasn’t well-shaped. They were not in your regular shape but instead looked a bit... erm... like a lazy hairstyle.

Although this type of pearls were not any premium items in the ocean, the two female treasured them to no end.

Gu Mengmeng held a pearl up against Melinda. Pearl earrings would suit Melinda’s face perfectly.

She used a tree branch to draw a simple illustration on the sand, which Melinda gazed with rapture.

A female’s desire for jewelry could probably be compared to Auretin’s craving for food.

The earring was eventually completed, thanks to Fei Rui’s water-spitting abilities.

He spat a stream of water, as fine as a needle, directly at the pearl. With dead accuracy, it pierced through the pearl right at the spot indicated by Gu Mengmeng, forming a tiny perforation.

Gu Mengmeng was very pleased. She took a hair from Melinda and passed it through the hole before tying it into an exquisite flower knot.

Buried within the generations’ worth of memories in Gu Mengmeng informed her that a mermaid’s hair was extremely durable. Moreover, Melinda’s hair was long and of good quality. Using her hair to make earrings to adorn her own ears was perfect.

Everything had been prepared and the last stage was to pierce Melinda’s earlobes.

It must be said that one was not afraid to die for the sake of beauty.

So that she could wear those earrings, the petite little girl presented her earlobes without hesitation, for Fei Rui to pierce with his water-spitting abilities.

Fei Rui was scared witless. She must be kidding him. His heart ached even at the slightest frown shown by his precious little sister. She wanted him to attack her now? No way!

Gu Mengmeng clicked her tongue. Really useless.

“Carter, come over here.” Gu Mengmeng waved him over.

Carter walked over silently and stood beside Gu Mengmeng. His eyes never left Melinda.

Gu Mengmeng pointed at the center of Melinda’s earlobes. “Pierce a small hole here, can you do it?”

Carter frowned and looked at Melinda. “Do you really want to pierce a hole in your earlobes?”

Melinda was scared of Carter and instinctively wanted to hide. But she looked at Gu Mengmeng and then at the tiny pearl earring. She hesitated, but nodded in the end.

This was the first time Melinda had asked something from him. No matter how hard it was for him, Carter would never disappoint her.

Slowly leaning in close to her earlobe, Carter’s steady voice was comforting. He said gently, “Don’t be scared, leave it to me.”
