"Look, something seems to be moving over there!" Chaoyan suddenly shouted, pointing into the distance.
The three of them ran over quickly and saw a big crab waving its claws and running rampant on the beach.
"Haha, it's a crab!" Chao Yan bent down excitedly and tried to catch it.
The crab seemed to sense danger and quickly burrowed into a hole. Chaoyan reluctantly dug with her hands, but couldn't reach it.
"Let me try." Bai Ren said, and found a branch. He carefully reached into the hole and tried to drive the crab out.
After some effort, the crab was finally driven out, and Chaoyan caught it with his quick eyes and hands.
"Great, we got a catch!" Chaoyan held the crab and was as happy as a child.
They continued along the beach, occasionally finding shellfish and small fish, and cheered excitedly with each new seafood they found.
"Look, there are so many shells there!" Lin Zhirou said in surprise, pointing to a beach.
When the three of them got closer, they saw that the beach was densely covered with shells of various colors and shapes.
"Wow, so beautiful!" Chao Yan exclaimed, "These shells can be used as decorations!"
They bent down and began to pick out the shells they liked. Bai Ren picked up a large shell, put it to his ear and listened, as if he were listening to the sound of the sea.
"Oh, there's a big fish over there!" Chao Yan suddenly shouted.
They looked in the direction Chaoyan pointed and saw a slightly larger fish swimming in the shallows. Bairen quietly approached, ready to catch it.
The fish seemed to sense danger and swam away quickly. Bai Ren chased after it unwillingly, but accidentally fell into the water.
"Hahaha..." Chaoyan and Lin Zhirou couldn't help laughing when they saw Bai Ren's embarrassed look.
Bai Ren climbed out of the water, wiped the water off his face, and started laughing too.
"It's okay, let's keep looking!" Bai Ren said.
"Oh, it's getting late, we should go back!" Lin Zhirou said after looking at her watch.
"Well, it's time to go back. Tonight has been sumptuous enough! Look, there are plump crabs, fresh fish, some scallops, plus the fruits and vegetables prepared by Qingdai and the others. It's simply perfect!" Chao Yan said with satisfaction.
"Well, that's indeed the case. We've gained a lot today!" Lin Zhirou smiled and nodded in agreement.
"Okay, it's time to go back." Bai Ren also agreed, with a happy expression on his face.
With their bountiful catch, the three of them set off on their journey home. In their hands were bags filled with seafood: crabs waving their claws, fish struggling in the bags, and scallops lying quietly within. Smiles graced their faces, the sea breeze caressing them gently, and the sunset stretched their silhouettes far and wide.

On an open lawn, Qu Qingdai, Qin Yunie, and Tan Changqing were busy setting up a simple cooking area. Working together, they arranged some stones into a circle and placed some branches in the middle, creating a simple stove.
As Qu Qingdai sorted the vegetables she had obtained from the guardians, she said, "These vegetables look quite fresh. We must make good use of them and make a delicious meal."
Qin Yunie smiled and replied, "Of course. Chef Qingdai will definitely be able to make amazing food if he cooks it himself."
Tan Changqing was selecting cooking utensils on the side. He picked up a frying pan and said, "The production team was kind enough to prepare some cooking utensils for us. This should be useful. We can fry some vegetable pancakes for tomorrow's breakfast!"
"Oh, yes, there's also breakfast tomorrow! I almost forgot, we still have some compressed biscuits, which can also be eaten as breakfast tomorrow!" Qin Yunie said, slapping his head.
"Then let's prepare together!" Qu Qingdai sorted and arranged the vegetables and began to wash them. As she washed the vegetables, she said, "Yunie, go get the water pitcher over there. We need water."
Qin Yunie immediately ran to get the water pitcher, and when she came back, she didn't forget to tease him, "Qingdai, don't ruin the vegetables, otherwise we won't have anything to eat."
"You just know how to talk nonsense. Hurry up and help me cut the vegetables." Qu Qingdai rolled her eyes at her.
Qin Yunie picked up the knife and began to chop the vegetables carefully. As she cut, she said, "Qingdai, Changqing, how about we make some vegetable soup?"
Tan Changqing nodded in agreement and said, "Sure, if you add some mushrooms, it should taste great."
Qu Qingdai took over the conversation: "Then we can also make stir-fried seasonal vegetables and use all these vegetables."
They discussed the recipe while busy preparing the ingredients. After a while, the fire in the stove was lit, and Qu Qingdai poured some oil into the pot and started to stir-fry.
"Wow, it smells so good!" Qin Yunie came over and smelled it, "Qingdai, your cooking skills are really good."
Qu Qingdai smiled and said, "Stop flattering me and bring the plate over there."
Qin Yunie quickly handed over the plate and watched Qu Qingdai skillfully stir-fry the vegetables with admiration in her eyes.
Tan Changqing was adding water to the pot, preparing to make soup. As he stirred, he asked, "Do you think we'll miss our time here when we return?"
Qin Yunie thought about it and said, "Of course, these memories are very precious."
Qu Qingdai also said: "Yes, although we sometimes encounter some difficulties, it is also very happy that we are together and help each other."
"And we can cook together, it feels really great." Tan Changqing said with emotion.
