After becoming rich overnight, I handed over the system.

Chapter 158 Judging by Appearance

The two were unsure whether to agree with or disagree with Grandma Liu, but regardless, they still hoped that the couple could be happy.

Just as everyone was preparing wedding gifts for Liu Mingyue, Lan also pulled in her best friend tide.

"Come on, tide. Ever since you came back from the human world, you've been staying at the bottom of the sea and haven't even left the house. Come with me, let's go out for a walk!"

Lan was speechless. Her best friend seemed to have really suffered a blow. Before, she would drag her to the sea to look around, but now, apart from coming to her place for meals, she would go back to her room to cultivate. The whole fish was extremely quiet.

"Oh, I don't want to go! If you want to give a gift, you can pick some up from the seabed. Humans really like these seafood products!" tide blinked, not wanting to go out.

"I've prepared this, but I want to go to the human world and have them set the pearls into the hairpin. Come with me!"

Lan was telling the truth. She wanted to have pearls, conch shells, and coral set into a hairpin. She had seen the humans on those ships, and some of their jewelry was quite exquisite. More importantly, she wanted to take her girlfriends out for a walk. How could mermaids be afraid of humans?

tide couldn't refuse Lan, so she had no choice but to go ashore with her.

"These clothes?" tide asked, holding up the exquisite clothes in her hand.

"Don't worry! I'm all ready!" Unlike her best friend, who had to pretend to be rescued to get ashore, she had secretly observed the styles of clothing worn by people here and then asked Liu Mingyue to help her prepare a number of similar styles.

That way, even if the two of them walked in the crowd, they wouldn't stand out. Besides, she had inquired and found out that no identification documents were needed to enter the city.

And so, the two sisters successfully entered the city.

"Steamed buns, steamed buns, delicious steamed buns!"

"Miss, look at this hairpin! These are genuine mermaid pearls! Do you know what mermaid pearls are? I heard that the tears shed by mermaids turn into pearls. Look how bright the pearls on this hairpin are! And look at this seashell wind chime, they're all made from large seashells, all sorts of colors, so beautiful!" The peddler chattered on and on, trying to sell the things on his stall.

"These are too small!" tide muttered, how could these be their tears?

Lan tugged at her sleeve and asked where the jewelry-making place was. The two of them then went to the Treasure Pavilion together.

"Ladies, is there anything you need?"

Lan carefully asked the shopkeeper if he could make hairpins, and then took out the materials. Of course, she did not miss the shrewd look in his eyes.

After agreeing on the style and other details, Lan agreed to use the remaining materials to offset the labor cost. With the shopkeeper's repeated assurances, they arranged a time to pick up the jewelry. Lan then planned to take her girlfriends shopping. Since they had finally gotten out of the house, how could they not go shopping?

"Xiao west?" tide heard the voice and her whole body stiffened instantly. She didn't dare to turn around at all.

Lan sensed something was wrong and quietly asked her friend, "What's wrong?"

"What should we do? What should we do? This is that human prince!"

Lan breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. Fortunately, she was prepared. Liu Yi had said that her friend and the human prince might develop a tragic relationship at any time, and she had given her many examples, including but not limited to the current situation.

Therefore, she made thorough preparations when she decided to bring tide out.

"Don't worry, have you forgotten what I did?" Lan comforted tide, feeling a little more at ease as she thought about how Lan had painted on her face before they entered the city.

"This young master must have mistaken me for someone else, right?" Lan was a little annoyed as she watched the human young master staring at tide with a furrowed brow.

She blocked tide's body and looked directly at her.

The human young master persisted, "I didn't mean anything by it, it's just that the people around Miss look somewhat like my lost maid!"

"Young master, this is very impolite. My sister is a good daughter of an ordinary family, how did she become your maid!"

The human prince did not give up because of Lan's words. It was just that Xiao Xi's appearance was too captivating. Unfortunately, he had not yet succeeded in getting her when she ran away.

Lan also noticed that the human prince seemed to want to see tide's face. Since that was the case, then let him see it.

"Xiao tide, we should go!" tide slowly peeked out from behind Lan.

The human prince had initially held some hope upon hearing the same name, but upon seeing Xiao Xi's plain and unremarkable face, he immediately lost interest. She wasn't even as pretty as his maid.

"I apologize for my rudeness!" The human prince said and then left.

"No, then what was he dawdling about for just now!" Now it was tide's turn to be angry; she had scared Yu to death just now!

"What do you want? I just want to see your face! If you're not good-looking, I don't want to look at you anymore!"

"Not good-looking? How could I not be good-looking! I am the most beautiful woman in the clan!" tide retorted.

"Yes, yes, you are the most beautiful woman in the world. What man has no taste!"

"Exactly!" With her best friend's comfort, tide finally felt better.

The shopkeeper, who had watched the whole thing, twitched his mouth upon hearing this. "Looks like that? A real beauty? Forget it."

After confirming the time with the shopkeeper again, Lan took tide away. This time, no one stopped them, and the two of them had a great time.

Later, when Lan went to pick up her jewelry, she ran into that young master again, but this time he didn't even glance at her.

Sure enough, Lin Liuyi was right; men are all about looks.

That's good, now she can bring her girlfriends out to play without worry. But when her girlfriends go back, they'll ask her if she looks good, and they'll even ask her about a fish they catch.

Soon, the day of Liu Mingyue's wedding arrived, and the scene was lively and extraordinary.

"Father, don't cry. Eldest brother, second brother, you should also try to comfort Father!" Liu Mingyue was both amused and exasperated. She, the one who got married, hadn't even cried yet, but her father was already heartbroken.

"Mingyue, your father can't bear to part with you!" Lord Liu cried, tears streaming down his face.

Liu Mingyue's nose also felt sore. "Dad, I'm not leaving today!"

After finally persuading her father, the wedding ceremony officially began.

Dressed in her wedding gown, she was as beautiful as an angel, and the groom was also dashing and handsome. Liu Mingyue thus gave herself to another person.

A few days after their marriage, the two packed their bags and prepared to head to the border.

Along the way, Liu Mingyue looked at the ever-changing scenery through the carriage window, feeling both nervous and expectant.

Fortunately, the sisters in the group chat would send her caring words from time to time, which warmed her heart.

"Sisters, it's an emergency! I've brought a new sister here, please help her!"

Just as Liu Mingyue relaxed from her tension, she suddenly became nervous for someone else because of Lin Liuyi's words.
