Chapter 417 Alice: Lucy, I've actually been putting up with you for a long time.
Ling was devastated upon returning to the resort. Her hands hung limply at her sides, swinging as she walked.
She had just experienced something that could change her life, and she couldn't imagine what kind of person could be so capable of producing such a large quantity of goods.
When Tetsu saw Rin looking bewildered as she came down, he couldn't help but go up to her and ask what had happened.
"Brother," Ling asked Zhe, somewhat dazed, "Do you think there really is anyone in this world who can catch a big fish every time?"
"?"
Zhe looked at Ling with a puzzled expression. He didn't quite understand what Ling meant. After Ling gave a brief explanation, Zhe also fell into deep thought.
Finally, it was the captain who patted them on the shoulder and brought them back to their senses. Looking at the captain's nonchalant expression, the two still couldn't understand.
Do such people really exist in this world?
This was the information the captain gleaned from the pure gazes of the two women. The captain simply sighed softly and said, "Kiana's luck has always been this good. It's probably best not to overthink it."
After listening to the captain's words, the two decided to abandon their own thoughts and, together with the captain, moved all the remaining fish they had caught to the aquarium. The vast majority of these were Kiana's catch, and after seeing Kiana's exaggerated performance, Rin gave up on trying to catch them herself and joined in cheering.
After the fish were placed in the tank, the aquarium was officially revived. Of course, seeing that there was nothing else in the tank except the fish, everyone knew that it would take a while before the aquarium was fully revived.
The good news is that Igi has already contacted relevant manufacturers to customize various landscapes, which will be delivered in a while.
Just then, Alice received some good news: she and the Herrscher of Knowledge had been spotted by a TV program team while testing the slide.
The show's director wanted Alice and Herrscher of Knowledge to contribute a spectacular surfing performance to their show. Alice initially intended to decline, but after being persuaded by Herrscher of Knowledge, she realized it was a good opportunity to boost the resort's reputation and agreed.
The director told Alice that the show would officially start filming the next day and hoped that they could arrive as promised. Upon hearing this news, Yuzu immediately hugged Alice happily.
"Great, Alice! You're my lucky star!"
"But... but can I really do it?" Alice asked with some confidence. "After all, I'm not a professional surfer. Can I really go on the show? What if I fail? No way! I'd better turn it down."
Yuye grabbed Alice's hand: "Hey! Don't be so quick to refuse. Isn't this a great opportunity? Besides, we're recording a show tomorrow. If it doesn't work the first time, we can try again. What's the big deal?"
"But the director said there will be a live broadcast in four days, and it will be broadcast live the whole time. I'm afraid I'll fail at that time..."
"Hey! There are still several days left. We can think about what happens four days from now. Besides, why don't we just start practicing now?"
"Exactly!" The Herrscher of Knowledge patted Alice on the shoulder casually. "I think you just lack confidence. You just need to work on building it up. Your surfing skills are absolutely no problem!"
As he spoke, the Herrscher of Knowledge gave Alice a thumbs up again. After bowing her head and remaining silent for a while, Alice ultimately did not refuse to continue practicing.
However, her tendency to lose confidence at the drop of a hat still gave the Herrscher of Knowledge a headache. The Herrscher of Knowledge wasn't good at encouraging people to begin with, and Fu Hua was even worse. She would start by spouting all sorts of ancient Chinese sayings, leaving Alice with a face full of confusion.
The Book of Azure was alright, but it didn't quite work for Alice's personality. In the end, Rin found Lucy and told her about it, and then began extreme training with Lucy.
The effect was only so-so; Alice's confidence was indeed boosted by Lucy's training. However, in Rin's view, it was mostly just the shame that was triggered after the shouting and yelling.
"By the way, should we ask Kiana to come and give it a try too?" Rin suggested.
"Huh?!" Lucy asked, looking at Bell. "Really? That guy's still here?!"
"Lucy, you don't need to be so surprised."
Kiana said helplessly while licking her popsicle. Lucy turned to look at Kiana behind her and remained silent for a long time. Then she stepped forward and punched Kiana in the stomach, but Kiana dodged it by turning to the side.
"Don't hide, you bastard!"
"Are you going to stand there and let me hit you if you don't dodge?"
Ling quickly stepped in to smooth things over: "Alright, alright, Lucy Kiana had a special reason for disappearing, so please forgive her."
"What, are you worried about me?"
"I...who...who was worried about you!"
"Okay, okay, you weren't worried about me, so why did you come to see me, Ling?"
"Actually, the thing is..."
Rin began to explain the cause and course of events to Kiana...
"Yes, I understand. The specific thing is that you want Alice to be able to confidently perform her live surfing show in four days, right?"
“That’s right,” Ling nodded. “But there’s something I’ve been curious about for a long time.”
Kiana gestured for Rin to continue, and Rin first looked back and forth between Kiana, Lucy, and Alice before asking a question.
"Kiana, you said you were Lucy's classmate, right?"
"Yes, that's right, so what?"
"Lucy is Alice's classmate, right?"
Kiana was drenched in sweat: "Is...is that so?"
"And Alice is a student, so Miss Kiana, you..."
"Ah ha ha……"
Kiana scratched her head awkwardly, unsure how to explain herself.
"You guessed right, because Kiana was found later. So her education level is somewhat worrying. Although she got into St. Freya Academy through connections, that's all. She repeated several grades afterward. It wasn't until Mei graduated from university that Kiana worked hard and successfully entered university. Because this matter is quite famous, and because she belongs to the Kaslana family, we usually consider the reputation of the other family and don't mention this matter in public."
Alice nodded, agreeing with Lucy.
"Forehead……"
"Don't look at me like that, I've already graduated."
Kiana waved her hand and said, "Besides, Nicole can testify to this!"
"I-I understand the situation now, so Kiana, could you come and help me?"
Kiana looked at Alice. Although Alice's eyes were firm, Kiana could still see a hint of insecurity deep in her pupils.
“Okay, I can help.” Kiana then analyzed, “Actually, Alice’s lack of confidence is ultimately because she cares too much about what others think. This is a common problem for heirs of large families. After all, they need to constantly worry about whether they fit the image of an heir in the eyes of outsiders, and over time they will inevitably start to care about other people’s opinions.”
Kiana then thought of Hoshimi Miyabi and added, "Of course, it varies from person to person. Speaking of which, wasn't Alice and Lucy yelling there earlier because Lucy was training her not to care about other people's opinions? That's why I came here."
Upon hearing Kiana's words, Alice blushed and nervously fidgeted with her fingers.
