Chapter 55: The Tankless Group Separates Briefly
After Meng Chuyuan finished speaking, Lu Jinsen took a toothpick and a bag of shrimp and went outside the kitchen to process them.
Lu Jinsen sat under the eaves, opened the plastic bag, looked at the shrimps that were still jumping around, and a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes.
He held a toothpick in one hand and the other hand was still on the plastic bag. His eyes were fixed on the shrimp but he didn't touch it.
After a while, Lu Jinsen finally reached out.
Just when the audience was expecting him to pick out the shrimp thread, they saw him just reach out and try. When he saw the shrimp move, he was so scared that he retracted his hand. He held his breath and tried to reach down again, then picked up a shrimp, but it fell down before he took it out of the bag.
He never expected that his action would be laughed at by tens of millions of viewers.
[No way? The young master can't even handle a bag of shrimp? ?]
[I'm dying of laughter, hahahaha, is Lu Jinsen afraid of being bitten by shrimp?]
[I can't believe Lu Jinsen is such a comedian. Will that shrimp bite or eat you?]
[You are indeed my daily source of joy. Why is everything the young master does so funny?]
[I didn't expect this shrimp to be so cunning, it fell off as soon as I squeezed it, hahahaha]
We have received professional training and are not allowed to laugh unless absolutely necessary.
It was Lu Jinsen's first time handling live shrimps. He felt really at a loss when he saw them jumping around. When he first touched the shrimps, he was a little scared so he didn't hold them firmly.
He adjusted his breathing, then picked up the shrimp again, pinched the shrimp body tightly, and then poked a toothpick into the shrimp's back, successfully removing the shrimp thread.
After Lu Jinsen found the feeling, his speed gradually increased, and he soon successfully completed the task assigned to him by Meng Chuyuan.
He returned to the kitchen with a basin of shrimp and helped to light the fire.
[That's great! This kid can already find work for himself.]
The young master is quite self-aware this time. He has mastered the skill of making fire.
[From the way he picked up the shrimp thread just now, it was obvious that he was really changing.]
[Is there a possibility that he is hungry? Hahaha, through my observation in the last issue, I found that the young master is particularly active in doing things when he is hungry]
They exchanged shrimp, a yellow croaker, kelp and eggs in the afternoon.
Meng Chuyuan made shrimp scrambled eggs and used the remaining shrimp to make a plate of pepper shrimp, as well as a dish of cold kelp and yellow croaker soup.
Because they didn't have a refrigerator at home, they didn't exchange too much, and it was just enough for a meal.
In the evening, there was still a hint of colorful clouds hanging in the gray sky.
Meng Chuyuan and his friends set up a table in the yard to eat, and they enjoyed their dinner leisurely while listening to the sound of boats coming from afar.
Because we promised the village representatives at noon that we would go night fishing with them in the evening, so after everyone finished their meal, they changed into warm clothes and went out.
It was already dark when the six guests gathered at the pier.
Qi Yan hadn't planned to come at first. In fact, she could have asked for leave again on the pretext of the afternoon, but she thought about it carefully. The recording for the day was almost over, and she didn't seem to have many shots.
After some thought, she decided to go night fishing with them.
The other guests were quite surprised when they saw Qi Yan appear.
Liao Jiake asked with some concern: "Sister Qi Yan, are you feeling better?"
Qi Yan smiled and responded, "Much better."
I heard that she felt uncomfortable because of the wind in the morning. Now Meng Chuyuan felt that Qi Yan's condition was just average and didn't seem to be much better.
Meng Chuyuan glanced at Qi Yan and kindly reminded her, "Sister Qi Yan, the wind is stronger at night. Aren't you cold wearing so little?"
Qi Yan's face froze.
Although she really didn't want to bother with Meng Chuyuan, but when she thought about how many people were watching in the live broadcast room, she could only force a smile and say, "It's okay."
[Is this the first time Qi Yan and Sister Meng have spoken to each other? ]
Does anyone feel like something's off? I always feel like there's something strange going on between these two. Is there something going on behind the scenes?
Qi Yan's smile is so forced, it seems like she doesn't really want to pay attention to Sister Meng.
[If you don't want to bother with it, then don't bother with it. Sister Meng is just kindly concerned about her health.]
Meng Chuyuan wore a baseball cap, a low ponytail, a white thermal underwear, and a blue jacket with the zipper pulled to the top, resting on her chin. She wore black wide-leg jeans and a pair of white sneakers.
She really dressed tightly, put on a mask, and put her hands in her pockets, leaving only her eyes exposed.
Qi Yan's hair was disheveled, covering her shoulders. She wore only a short grey sweater, black high-waisted trousers and a pair of white boots. When the evening breeze blew, she seemed to be shivering slightly.
After a while, the village representative appeared in a fishing boat.
"Did you all wait a long time? I'm really sorry, we were just cleaning up our fishing gear, so we're a little late."
Meng Chuyuan: "It's okay, we just got here."
The village representative came to the shore from the boat, glanced at them, and silently counted the number of people. He didn't expect that everyone had come.
After a while, the village representative said with a smile, "Since there are too many of us, we need to take two boats. Let's divide the space among ourselves now."
Meng Chuyuan asked, "Does that mean the three of us will take one boat?"
"Yes."
Liao Jiake said in surprise, "If that's the case, then one of our groups might have to be separated temporarily."
[Help! My damn choice dilemma strikes again. Which pair should I break up?]
Can't we prepare an extra ship? It feels awkward to dismantle either team.
[We're used to having three groups, so suddenly splitting into two feels a bit awkward.]
[There's nothing we can do. The fishing boat is only this big and can't carry so many people. Let's see what they choose.]
The six guests looked at each other and did not make a decision for a long time.
The village representative stood by and watched for a while, then couldn't help but urge, "How's it going? Have you decided who's going to be with whom?"
Everyone thought that keeping silent would lead to a final compromise, and Qi Yan had already decided not to go.
Qi Yan opened her mouth and was about to express her thoughts when she heard a cold voice interrupting her.
"I'll go with Qi Zhen and his sister."
Qi Yan: “…”
The words just now were spoken by Meng Chuyuan. When Lu Jinsen heard them, his eyes widened and he looked at her in disbelief.
Qi Zhen couldn't help but be stunned. He didn't expect this result, but he also admired Meng Chuyuan for standing up at this time.
He looked at Meng Chuyuan tenderly and responded with a smile: "Okay."
Seeing that Meng Chuyuan had made a decision, Liao Jia took the initiative to step forward to help smooth things over. She looked at Lu Jinsen with a smile and generously invited him to come: "Then Xiao Lu, come with us."
Meng Chuyuan looked up at Lu Jinsen and said, "Go and take good care of the two sisters."
Lu Jinsen felt choked up, and couldn't understand why Meng Chuyuan pushed him to someone else.
