bride as a paranoid mermaid

Chapter 13 Picked up a mermaid

Xia Shenlan studied it carefully, and found that the golden thread pearls need to be sealed one more time, and the time in the morning is a bit tight, so after Jiang Chenxing takes a nap, there will be enough time.

Throughout the morning, Xia Shenlan once again handed over the right to use the mobile phone to the mermaid, and let him watch videos or whatever.

The mermaid is obviously very fond of this kind of high-tech products that are not available in the sea, and often can't take their eyes off the phone for a long time as soon as they get it.

It wasn't until Xia Shenlan started to do Jiang Chenxing's nails in the afternoon that he was willing to look away from his phone and look at Xia Shenlan.

Xia Shenlan was sticking gold thread on Jiang Chenxing, and she was able to realize this because the sound of the mermaid's video stopped.

His initial thought was that the mermaid would stop because the phone might be out of battery. After attaching the gold thread to Jiang Chenxing, he asked him to bake the lamp twice, and took the power bank to go to the mermaid during this time.

As soon as the data cable was connected, the phone screen immediately lit up.

"Isn't there still electricity here? You don't want to see it?" Xia Shenlan asked.

The mermaid stretched out her hand, with the back of her hand facing up, showing her hand and nails in front of Xia Shenlan.

Xia Shenlan's expression was indescribable, "You don't want to do your nails too, do you? Your nails are so beautiful."

The mermaid's nails plus the nail bed are about five centimeters long. The overall color is gradient gold, with a gold thread around the edge, which is about the same color as the scales. It is not an exaggeration to say that the manicure is specially made.

"Don't be so overwhelmed."

However, the mermaid is still determined and just wants to get a new nail.

Xia Shenlan's head hurt so much that she could only reluctantly respond: "Okay... let's do it. I'll try it for you when Jiang Chenxing finishes. But I still think your original nails are the best, and they are very similar to your scales. It fits perfectly, and the color is very natural, let me do it, I will definitely not be able to make such a perfect gradient."

Back at the table, Jiang Chenxing asked, "Does he want to do nails too?"

"That's right." Xia Shenlan sighed helplessly, "His nails are so beautiful, I'm afraid that the effect I made will not be as good as one-tenth of the original."

Jiang Chenxing raised his hand, revealing the nails that had already been pasted with gold thread and pearls, and said with a smile: "No, Xiao Xia did a great job, even more beautiful than the original picture."

"Be sober, it's because your hands are pretty."

"I'm sober, I think Xiao Xia did a great job."

"……as long as you are happy."

After pasting the decorations, you only need to strengthen a layer of glue, and then seal the baking lamp. The whole process is very simple.

Xia Shenlan told Jiang Chenxing to bake the lamp twice more, checked the matter carefully, and made sure there were no flaws, and said with a smile: "Okay, just wash your hands and apply some hand cream."

Jiang Chenxing has done these things countless times, so he is naturally familiar with them.

Xia Shenlan brought his toolbox to the aquarium, intending to test whether his tools could mend the mermaid's nails. As for what color to paint, he hadn't decided yet.

To his surprise, the mermaid handed the phone in front of him, and there was a gaudy manicure picture on it.

Xia Shenlan was silent.

What did he miss these two days?Why have mermaids learned to find pictures by themselves?

Besides, how fancy are the pictures the mermaid found?

None of the ten fingers have a repeating pattern, and the background colors are as different as the rainbow, with gradients, pictures, and diamond stickers. This level of complexity can't be bought by a nail salon outside.

"Don't you think...that's a little too gimmicky?"

The mermaid pushed the phone forward with a very firm attitude.

Xia Shenlan: "...All right then, I'll show you if you can do your nails first, if you can't do it, you can just paint it."

Judging from the sharpness of the mermaid's teeth, his nails are probably also very hard.

Xia Shenlan was mentally prepared, but she didn't expect the mermaid's nails to be so hard—the nail clippers fell off, and the mermaid's nails didn't even leave a scratch.

How is this still playing?

Xia Shenlan had no choice but to give up the step of clipping the nails and directly apply the dead skin softener. If she wanted to shovel off the dead skin on the mermaid nails, she would apply primer.

However, he miscalculated again.

The dead skin softener he bought can even soften the old dead skin on the toenails, but it can't be helped with the mermaid's nails, there is no sign of softening at all, and it is no different from applying some water to it.

Xia Shenlan bit the bullet and pushed the mermaid's nail edge, not surprisingly, there was no reaction.

"Forget it, let's just apply primer directly."

The base oil does not need a baking lamp, it can be applied directly after drying in the air for a while. Xia Shenlan took out the corresponding bottle and applied a light layer of base color to the nails of the mermaid's right hand.

"Bake the lamp, and be careful not to touch the lamp with your fingernails."

While talking, Xia Shenlan grabbed the mermaid's hand and sent it into the roasting lamp.

Fortunately, he was wise at the time and bought a relatively large roasting lamp. Otherwise, the mermaid's length might not be able to fully illuminate the light.

After baking the lamp once, the mermaid took out her nails and looked at it happily for a while.

"Let me see." Xia Shenlan grabbed the mermaid's hand and rubbed it on the nails.

God knows, this is just an action to test whether the nail polish is firm, and it is useless most of the time, but Xia Shenlan encountered Waterloo at the mermaid for the first time.

——The nail polish glue was wiped off!

He wiped off all the nail polish with just a light wipe, as easy as wiping off watercolors painted on a mirror.

Xia Shenlan was greatly shocked, and quickly added a layer of base color to his index finger.

"It should be because the time of the lamp is not enough, you bake it twice... no, bake it three more times."

Before the mermaid realized the seriousness of the problem, Xia Shenlan asked him to bake it, and he did it.

After three times, Xia Shenlan lightly wiped the mermaid's nails, and it was exactly the same as last time, and it still fell off as soon as she wiped.

"I'm going... Are you nails or diamonds? Nail polish can't stick firmly?!"

Xia Shenlan was at a loss for words, looked at the mermaid silently, and after a while, said helplessly: "You also saw it, it's not that I don't want to do it for you, it's that your nails can't be put on nail polish. This has already touched my blind spot of knowledge ..."

The mermaid still didn't understand the seriousness of the matter, and looked at Xia Shenlan urgingly.

Xia Shenlan demonstrated the process of applying nail polish glue on her own hands and then baking the lamp. The color can't be wiped off at all, but the mermaid's nails still fall off after being baked four times.

"I understand now... Besides, your nails are pretty pretty, so let's just let it be like this..."

The mermaid angrily wiped off the nail polish on her nails, flicked her tail and swam back into the water to sleep, leaving Xia Shenlan behind.

Xia Shenlan is so helpless, it's not his fault, why are you still angry with him?

After going back and forth for a long time, it was time to cook.

Before that, Xia Shenlan went to the balcony to take a look, and the black cat really brought salted fish over.

Xia Shenlan was a little worried, and continued to let the black cat go. If someone caught him, there would definitely be a lot of trouble. After Jiang Chenxing finished checking, he should find a way to stop the black cat from doing this.

The day ended with Xia Shenlan's various worries.

On the 18th, Xia Shenlan took Jiang Chenxing out in the morning. They made an appointment for an inspection at 10:[-] in the morning, and it was just in time to catch the second bus.

The doctor had been in charge of Jiang Chenxing's illness for a long time, so he asked Jiang Chenxing for a checkup after casually asking about the situation.

After completing several tests, Xia Shenlan took Jiang Chenxing out for a meal, and then borrowed a place from the doctor for an afternoon nap.

After the examination results came out, the doctor called Xia Shenlan aside alone.

"He's not doing well."

Xia Shenlan asked calmly: "If you don't have surgery, how long can you last?"

"Less than a year..."

"Why? Didn't you say last time that there will be at least one more year?"

"His condition is worse than I imagined. After he becomes an adult, the load on his heart will increase. With his current heart condition, maybe this time will continue to shorten."

"Is there no other way?"

"If there is any other way, I won't let him drag it until now. It's still a commonplace question, do you want to have surgery?"

"What about the success rate?"

The doctor shook his head, "Less than twenty."

"So low..."

Xia Shenlan wiped her face, looked out the window and exhaled, but her chest was still heavy, as if a big rock was pressed on it.

The success rate of the operation has decreased again, from about [-]% at the beginning, to less than [-]%, to about [-]%, and even to less than [-]% now.

If it continues like this, maybe [-]% of the chances will be lost.

He should have persuaded Jiang Chenxing earlier.

Jiang Chenxing has always been unwilling to undergo surgery. In Jiang Chenxing's words, he has never been a lucky person. It is almost impossible for him to succeed with a [-]% chance, so it finally caused the current situation.

What should he do?Accompany Jiang Chenxing to spend the last period of time?Or must Jiang Chenxing undergo this operation that is almost equated with failure?

"Think about it carefully. His condition is too bad. This number will continue to decrease. In another two months, maybe one month, even if you agree, I will not be able to operate on him again."

"We'll think about it carefully."

Xia Shenlan used to persuade Jiang Chenxing to undergo surgery, but now, he hesitated.

After losing his grandfather, he couldn't imagine what it would be like to lose Jiang Chenxing, and he even felt that he really wouldn't be able to survive.

Let Jiang Chenxing decide.

No matter what decision Jiang Chenxing made, he would support it. He could not accept Jiang Chenxing's departure because of him, so he would not interfere with Jiang Chenxing's decision anymore.

On the way home, Xia Shenlan pondered for a long time, and finally asked, "Jiang Chenxing, do you want to undergo surgery?"

Jiang Chenxing looked out the window, his voice was so calm that he didn't seem to be talking about his own problems: "How much time do I have?"

Xia Shenlan replied with difficulty: "...less than a year..."

"Then I don't want to either." Jiang Chenxing turned to look at Xia Shenlan. It turned out that his eyes had a faint gleam, but he smiled and said, "I knew my end a long time ago, and I can accept it all. But I can't die on the operating table with regrets."

For some reason, Xia Shenlan's eyes were sour, and a tear fell without warning.

"Okay, I support your decision. But I believe that there will always be a way. There is still a year to go. Medical technology is advancing with each passing day, and there will always be a way."

No matter how slim the hope is, we must move forward with hope.
