Compared to the harmless tuna that Gou Fugui caught yesterday evening, which was large but within everyone's acceptable range, the giant swordfish that Xie Tianlang dragged back today is a real test of the tolerance of ordinary people.
When Xie Tianlang and the three-meter swordfish appeared together, half of the people in the stadium looked at him as if he were a triumphant hero, while the other half looked at him as if he were an alien invasion.
But no matter how shocked everyone was, Xie the werewolf, who was not one to back down, still carried his huge prey in and headed towards the cafeteria chef amidst all the stares.
However, unlike yesterday when the wealthy and beautiful woman was surrounded by a group of people wanting to buy fish, even though this swordfish was twice the size of yesterday's tuna and looked much meatier, not a single person dared to go up and ask the price.
That's probably the difference in aura.
Looking at the huge fish whose tail was dragging on the ground, Jin Mantang rubbed his hands full of rings and couldn't help but mutter, "Awesome, 666!"
He thought that the rich young man from yesterday was already a formidable person, but he only realized today that there's always someone better.
While everyone was stunned by Xie Tianlang and the big fish, Gou Fugui calmly dragged his net bag, quickly swiped his ID card, and walked in a straight line back to his tent in the center of the second row.
Because he was fast and wasn't carrying his net bag, only a few people in the middle of the first and second rows noticed that Gou Fugui was also returning fully loaded.
Of course, Jin Mantang saw it too.
Even Gou Fugui was dragged over from next to his tent. Just by listening to the sound, Jin Mantang knew that the large package covered by the two sun protection clothes must be full of good things.
Jin Mantang rubbed his ring again, and a look of joy, which he tried hard to suppress, appeared on his honest-looking face with thick eyebrows and big eyes.
He was wrong!
Even if that handsome and brave cool guy is very powerful, his rich brother is definitely not weak either!
Moreover, his wealthy brothers know how to make a fortune quietly, which is a wonderful quality that allows them to survive for a long time!
So Jin Mantang covered for Gou Fugui when he passed by. Although the cover wasn't very useful.
But Gou Fugui also realized Jin Mantang's goodwill and nodded to him.
The wealthy beauty breathed a sigh of relief after dragging her net full of food back into the tent.
Only then did he feel the fatigue and hunger of his belated return to human form, so he ignored everything else and directly opened a can of meat, a well-sealed self-heating hot pot, vacuum-packed chicken feet, and dehydrated snacks and vegetables, putting them all into the self-heating hot pot.
At this time, no matter how fierce the wind and rain were outside, his small tent was quiet and dry enough.
While waiting for the self-heating hot pot to start steaming, Gou Fugui took off all his wet clothes and changed into dry ones. He then wrapped his hair in a large towel that had been prepared in the tent, making a cloth bag about the size of a chef's hat on his head before lying down on the mattress and sleeping bag next to him to rest.
Indeed, there's no place like home. And, to be able to live an ordinary, peaceful life... that's truly wonderful.
Even though his original world was full of conspiracies and schemes, dangers and enemies, at least the world was intact.
You never have to worry about waking up to find the sky collapsing and death looming, or that even the most ordinary act of living requires an all-out effort.
As the self-heating hot pot began to bubble with fragrant aroma, the wealthy beauty with her head wrapped in a blanket suddenly sat up from the mattress, picked up her bowl and chopsticks, and prepared to start eating.
Just then, a tall figure suddenly appeared outside his tent, and Gou Fugui heard Xie Tianlang's very magnetic low voice: "Fugui, are you there? It's me, Xie Tianlang."
When the wealthy and beautiful woman looked up, I always felt that there was something strange added to his title.
"Is there something wrong?" This tent can't hide anyone at all; you can tell what's going on inside just by looking at the shadows. He can't very well say he's not here.
Xie Tianlang's voice rang out with a laugh: "I caught a big fish. It's a swordfish, a top predator in the sea. It's three meters long and weighs three hundred kilograms. It's huge."
“Very big.”
Gou Fugui: "..."
"Because it's too big, we can't finish it, so we came to bring you some."
"After all, I admire Brother Fugui and would like to be your friend."
Gou Fugui: "..."
There are so many things to criticize in these few sentences that he simply doesn't know where to begin.
Just as Gou Fugui was about to say no, Xie Tianlang spoke up first: "Although the fish I caught is bigger than the fish you caught, I don't think little brother Fugui is such a sore loser, is he?"
The wealthy and beautiful woman: "Ha."
That's really getting on my nerves! Do you really think your dad doesn't know how you caught that fish?!
The wealthy beauty stood up abruptly, then bent down and unzipped the door of her little tent.
He poked his head out from the small door, squinting at Xie Tianlang who was carrying a large plate of fish.
"Come in."
"I'm also quite curious about how you caught that fish, Brother Wolf."
"After all, that fish looks fiercer than you."
Xie Tianlang spotted Gou Fugui, who was wrapped up like an Indian, at a glance. His appearance was clearly laughable, but perhaps it was because the young man was so good-looking, or perhaps it was because the way he looked at him from below with his head tilted up was too much like a dashing wild otter. Xie Tianlang was not angry at all after being glared at and mocked, but instead laughed.
Xie Tianlang carefully placed the plate of swordfish slices next to the self-heating hot pot so that Gou Fugui could cook them.
Then he said with a smile, "It wasn't just me who caught that fish."
"Thanks to my beloved Yuanyuan for her help."
"Round, soft, and cute, it's also incredibly clever, knowing when to deliver a fatal blow to the enemy. If it hadn't stunned that fish with a frying pan at the crucial moment, I probably would have ended up with both of us dead."
As Xie Tianlang spoke, his sharp gaze quickly swept over the small tent. Finally, his eyes settled on the somewhat messy, not fully concealed, net bag.
Gou Fugui had been watching Xie Tianlang's movements, but when he followed his gaze, his scalp tingled with dread!
"Longlong brand spicy strips, and Niuhuahua milk powder..."
Gou Fugui choked, "These are the supplies I collected at a supermarket today. Brother Wolf, you wouldn't be trying to rob me, would you?"
Xie Tianlang looked at the young man whose face was slightly red from choking, curled the corners of his mouth and shook his head: "How could that be? I just think these two brands are very good, and my smart and cute little sea otter likes them too."
Gou Fugui felt he couldn't go on living like this anymore.
At the same time, they gained a deeper understanding of Xie Tianlang's cunning and shamelessness.
Who the hell is your pet otter?!
Xie Tianlang seemed to suddenly remember something and looked at Gou Fugui: "Brother Fugui, do you know that little sea otter? The one that's shiny and smooth, that can give the middle finger and say 'fuck'?"
Fu Gui's younger brother finally couldn't take it anymore. This guy's probing and traps were coming one after another, and getting entangled with him was just wasting too much of his time.
So Fu Gui's younger brother put down his chopsticks, his phoenix eyes narrowed as he looked at him expressionlessly: "I also know that he not only gives the middle finger and curses, he'll also ask if your ancestors are well."
Xie Tianlang's expression finally froze.
Fu Gui's younger brother continued to mock, "And another thing, have some shame and don't just adopt wild sea otters like that, okay? I've raised him on the beach for years, fed him sea cucumbers, abalone, and big clams every day, given him sugary drinks and spicy snacks, and even told him stories and taught him to speak human language, and I've never said he was my pet otter. You've only seen him twice, how dare you be his father?!"
"If he truly acknowledges a master, then he's mine, not yours, understand?"
"And his name is Xiao Fugui, not Yuanyuan!"
Xie Tianlang rested his chin on his hand and looked at Gou Fugui: "So it was you who brought me to the beach?"
"But if you raised the sea otters, why didn't we see you when the shipwreck happened?"
Gou Fugui rolled his eyes: "I wasn't on the ship. I found you guys when I was feeding the otters on the beach, so can't I just save your lives?"
Xie Tianlang raised his eyebrows and said nothing more.
Now that you put it that way, everything seems to make sense, and it's pretty much what I guessed. After all, no matter how intelligent a sea otter is, it's impossible for it to speak human language so fluently and know about human supermarkets and snacks without being taught.
But for some reason, even though the truth was right in front of him, he still felt that something was wrong.
This was a cry from his instincts and intuition, telling him that the handsome young man before him was lying, and that he still had a great secret to hide.
However, Xie Tianlang did not continue to ask. He restrained his overly sharp gaze and the probing expression on his face, and even suppressed the curiosity and desire in his heart.
Know when to stop.
Everyone has their own secrets and boundaries.
Not probing excessively or crossing the line is the most basic respect.
Even if he is extremely curious and concerned, he will not investigate further until the relationship has progressed to the point where the other party has taken the initiative to speak.
The wealthy beauty, who was still on guard, suddenly noticed that the werewolf opposite her had become harmless and gentle: "Then I really have to thank you for saving me, and also thank you for raising Yuanyuan to be so smart and cute."
Xie Tianlang's smile and eyes actually carried a hint of sincerity and frankness, which made it impossible for Gou Fugui to be tough.
Moreover, Gou Fugui understood from Xie Tianlang's eyes that this strong and overly perceptive person had chosen to back down.
This is very...
"Ahem, Xiao Fugui said you helped him at sea too... No need to be so polite. Also, I told you his name is Xiao Fugui, not Yuanyuan, so don't call him that!"
Xie Tianlang stretched out his long legs and laughed, but this time he shook his head firmly: "Compared to Xiao Fugui, I still think Yuanyuan sounds better. Anyway, it's a dashing wild otter, you can call it your name and I can call it mine, it doesn't matter."
The wealthy and beautiful woman: "Hehe."
I must have been mistaken in thinking that this person was sensible and gentlemanly!
After delivering the fish, Xie Tianlang left, leaving the wealthy and beautiful woman to finish the hot pot with mixed feelings.
After eating and drinking his fill, Gou Fugui wanted to sleep, but in the middle of the night, he suddenly heard someone speaking in his ear.
Gou Fugui opened his eyes instantly and reached for the fruit knife under his pillow.
However, he quickly put down the knife because he recognized the voice of the person calling him.
Jin Mantang.
Gou Fugui frowned slightly, unlocked the door, and let Jin Mantang into the tent.
Jin Mantang started with two sentences:
"I've come to find my brothers to get some more food."
"By the way, tell Brother Fugui to be careful when he goes out tomorrow, and not to be followed."
The wealthy beauty narrowed her eyes instantly.

Xie Tianlang: Although I'm fierce and ruthless, a real wolf killer, I'm also considerate and a gentleman. I especially love my wife! And, she's big!!
Gou Fugui: ...
