Chapter 496 You're Noisy
The farmhouses at the Guardian Base are indeed very well-equipped; they have everything you should have, and even things you shouldn't.
For example, Lu Fan took Ling Ran to see the pigs, cattle, and sheep raised at the base, and let Ling Ran choose whichever she wanted to eat, which would be served on Ling Ran's table at noon.
After wandering around for a while, Ling Ran didn't forget about shrimp fishing.
Although there is still plenty of seafood in the space, when it comes to shrimp fishing, the important thing is not the shrimp or the fish, but the fishing process.
This process was what she enjoyed most.
Ling Ran went fishing, and the others naturally had to accompany her, but she sent away those who didn't like fishing, such as Su Yimo.
What's so great about fishing?
Chen Le also ran away.
I'm afraid Pei Xiu will say he wants to hold a fishing competition.
He didn't want to wash the dishes anymore.
It's not that he's lazy, but washing dishes is an insult to him! He'll do anything else from now on, but not washing dishes!
Those who liked fishing stayed, while those who didn't left.
As for Lu Fan, whether he likes it or not, he pretends to like it. He can't run away. His focus recently is to keep the adults company and make them happy.
Ling Ran sat down on a small stool, cast her fishing rod, and then sat quietly fishing for shrimp.
Lu Fan, who was standing next to her, wanted to say something, but she gestured with her eyes and immediately shut up.
This is a pond, and the roads around it have been repaired, so there's no fear of getting muddy or anything like that. The grass has also been cut very clean, and there aren't many flying insects.
Ling Ran quietly fished for shrimp. She didn't speak, and no one dared to disturb her. If they wanted to talk, they could go to another pond.
This area specializes in shrimp farming, so after fishing for a short while, there was some activity.
Ling Ran pulled up the line and saw a huge freshwater prawn biting the hook. She quickly reeled in the line, and Lu Fan next to her praised, "Sir, you're really amazing! You caught a prawn as soon as you cast your line. Unlike me, I can't catch any at all. I think catching prawns requires a certain skill. Do you have any secret tips you can share?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Pei Xiu and the others all put away their fishing rods, and they had all caught something.
Not only them, but Lu Fan's own fishing rod was also swaying slightly. Lu Fan pretended not to see it, stepped on the fishing rod to stop it from moving.
Ling Ran tossed the shrimp into the bucket, glanced at him, and said casually, "The secret is to not step on the fishing rod."
"Ouch!"
Lu Fan glanced at his feet: "So I accidentally stepped on the rod. No wonder I couldn't catch anything. You're really good, you found the key to the problem right away."
Ling Ran: "..."
The last time she was this speechless was the time before.
Lu Fan gripped the fishing rod, waited patiently for a while, and then pulled it up, exclaiming with delight, "Wow, I caught one! You're truly an expert, Master! With just a little guidance, I caught one!"
"..."
"My lord, you are my god!"
"You're noisy."
"..."
Lu Fan shut up.
Silently, she put the shrimp into Ling Ran's bucket, only to hear her say again, "Get your stinky shrimp out of my sight."
"..."
He saw the two shrimp in the bucket, his own being the bigger one, and reached out to grab Ling Ran's, then said, "It's your stinky shrimp."
Lu Fan silently moved his hand away from the bucket, grabbed the one he had caught, and put it into his own bucket.
Sigh, it turns out being a simp is so hard.
He thought it would be very simple.
Come to think of it, before the apocalypse he was in a high position and others always fawned over him and watched his every whim. After the apocalypse he was in charge of the base and there was no need for him to fawn over anyone anymore.
This was the first time he had ever licked someone's boots.
Sitting on a small stool, Lu Fan looked at the streetlights not far away, where some small flying insects were flying around. He counted how many there were out of boredom.
I don't know how many I counted before I finally heard some movement from the side.
Ling Ran stood up, carrying a half-bucket of shrimp. Lu Fan quickly stood up as well. Before he could speak, he heard her say, "We've finished fishing for shrimp. Now let's go fishing."
"..."
To be fair, Lu Fan actually really enjoys fishing.
Previously, his mind was calm; he was the one who wanted to go fishing.
But today was different. His purpose wasn't fishing, but to keep Ling Ran company, so his heart suddenly became restless.
"Xiao Lu, if you don't like fishing, you can go and do your own thing."
"No, no, I really enjoy fishing."
As Lu Fan spoke, seeing that Ling Ran seemed somewhat skeptical, he emphasized, "It's true. If you don't believe me, ask the other people in this garden. Whenever I have free time, I come here to fish."
"Um."
Ling Ran cast his line, and Lu Fan immediately shut up upon seeing this.
He has already sent a flying ability user to the Weiyang base, determined to recruit the cook from Weiyang base who was praised by the adults to his guardian base.
In fact, Lu Fan didn't think too much about it. After all, the biggest problem of the base was the problem of eternal night, which even Lord Ren couldn't solve, no matter how powerful he was.
So he just hoped to be rewarded with some rice like Hao Ren.
This way, he would have the confidence to provide some benefits to the superhumans, which would help maintain the base for longer. Perhaps, by delaying this time, he could wait until dawn.
Ling Ran fished for more than two hours before reluctantly packing up.
Lu Fan stood up and quickly had someone carry the catch that Ling Ran had brought over. He then approached her and said, "My lord, it's lunchtime. Shall we go to a restaurant for lunch? And what about these shrimp and fish? How would you like them cooked?"
"Okay, you can do it as you see fit."
Seeing that Ling Ran did not refuse, Lu Fan was overjoyed.
For the next few days, Lu Fan arrived at Villa No. 8 on time every day and prepared a lot of fun things to do at the base.
It has to be said, Lu Fan is really something.
I don't know where he got the equipment, but he actually built a small amusement park.
Ling Ran had never been to an amusement park before, so she found it quite interesting to ride it for the first time.
Compared to thrilling high-altitude rides, Ling Ran prefers simpler amusement rides like bumper cars.
After all, she herself could fly on a sword, so this kind of facility, which was extremely fast and high, only made her a little dizzy, and she didn't feel anything else.
The others, on the other hand, despite having very high levels of superpowers, still screamed like ghosts.
Ling Ran expressed her incomprehension.
In the following days, Lu Fan was able to come up with something new every day, until one day while eating, Ling Ran suddenly felt that the taste of the dishes had improved significantly.
"They changed chefs?"
"Yes." Lu Fan thought to himself, "It was definitely the right thing to spend a lot of money to poach the chef. I hired this chef from the Weiyang base at a high price. Is the food to your liking, sir?"
"I knew it, this cooking tasted a bit familiar."
Uncle Chen and Liu Xiuping: "..."
I'm numb.
It's really numb.
Having finally left the Weiyang base and the chef praised by the adults, Lu Fan, to his dismay, invited him to the Guardian base.
You're a real jerk! When you hired people, didn't you even bother to find out if there were two chefs in the team?
The two exchanged a glance, knowing they couldn't continue like this.
I've decided... to steal their kitchen!
