Chapter 801
Zhou Shuangshuang’s voice was brimming with excitement, “Wow! Your queen is actually a mermaid as well? Our national treasure is also a mermaid, that Miss… Xia, come over here, you’ve found your own kind.”
Xia Yanyan gracefully walked over, proudly shown off by Zhou Shuangshuang, “This is our A-country’s national treasure, the unique and most beautiful mermaid in A-country. Isn’t Miss Xia also considered a goddess of the sea in your nation? With such a noble status, could you possibly open up a VIP lane so we can go first?”
As the local guide, Zheng Qufeng looked at Xia Yanyan but said, “We have long heard of A-country’s national treasure, and we never imagined we’d meet her in person today. Miss Xia, actually, many people in our nation are also filled with curiosity and respect for you.”noveldrama
“Really?” Xia Yanyan was pleasantly surprised, her vanity greatly satisfied.
“Of course, we are not an isolated country. Many pieces of information from the land are also reported on our television stations. Whatever needs you may have today, feel free to tell me. It would be my honor to serve you.”
Standing nonchalantly to the side, Han Chengbei watched as Xia Yanyan displayed an air of superiority and couldn’t help but snort in disdain.
Seeing Xia Yanyan and Wang Zimei on the registration list, Han Chengbei initially wanted to refuse their application. But after a second thought, he found it amusing. What if Xia Yanyan knew that the queen of this underwater empire was his precious Xingguang? Would she die of envy?
Chewing on gum, Han Chengbei was eagerly anticipating that moment.
Just then, the cordoned-off VIP lane up ahead finally let through a large group of people.
The grand procession, stars surrounding the moon.
The underwater citizens screamed with excitement, crowding around the barriers so tightly that all those standing behind could see nothing more than a sea of heads. Han Chengbei couldn’t help but worry—was his precious Xingguang going crazy with anxiety now?
After settling into the hotel, he would make sure to visit the palace first thing and reunite with his precious Xingguang.
“All right, everyone, we can go now. Please follow me, keep the group together and don’t get lost,” the guide, Zheng Qufeng, announced after the barrier in front was removed.
The group boarded a sea serpent submarine at the dock’s exit—similar to a land-based bus that could hold many passengers.
The sea serpent submarine transported all the tourists to the designated underwater hotel, arriving at the hotel’s “parking lot” before directly checking into the hotel. No one got a drop of water on them as they moved into luxurious rooms with large glass windows.
Standing in front of the grand glass windows, looking up, one could see the most iconic landmark of the underwater empire—the Imperial Shrine.
Xia Yanyan stood at the floor-to-ceiling window, watching as many underwater residents moved freely through the water on the streets below, shuttling back and forth. She also saw the statue of a mermaid at the very top of the Imperial Shrine, and her heart began to stir.
“Mom, I want to go out.”
Wang Zimei: “Oh, how can we go out? We can’t move around freely underwater and breathe freely like the locals here. Just now, the guide warned us repeatedly not to leave the hotel carelessly, saying that they would not be responsible if we drowned.”
“Mom, others might not be able to, but why can’t I move around freely underwater? Think about it, if I appear outside, and those people see me as a mermaid, how will they worship me?”
