After Guang Liangjun left, Mr. Zhao, the owner of the fishing tackle shop, called to say that the casting nets, shrimp traps, crab traps, and longline fishing were all ready.
Wu An's face lit up with joy: "Boss, do you have any space in your shop? I'll put this away for a while."
"The fishing season hasn't opened yet, so I'm not in a hurry to use it."
Mr. Zhao said, "Yes, yes, you can come and pick it up anytime."
"Anyway, you have my phone number. You can call me anytime if I'm not at the store."
We chatted for a couple more minutes, then hung up.
Aqing asked, "Brother, why don't we bring it back? We can use it when we go out to sea tomorrow."
Wu An shook his head: "The sea hasn't opened yet, so it can't be used."
Aqing said, "What's the big deal?"
"Many people in the village do their homework secretly."
"Seafood caught at this time of year is most valuable."
Wu An reclined on the chair and smiled, "We won't do it that way."
"Make the safest money."
"It's not worth risking your life by operating a sewing machine, understand?"
Aqing nodded.
Wu An didn't care whether he listened or not. Anyway, A Qing was very obedient. As long as he told her what to do, A Qing would know what to do.
He was even more worried about the personnel situation.
If he remembered correctly, he had ordered three casting nets, ten shrimp traps and ten crab traps, as well as a 1,000-meter longline. So much stuff, especially the shrimp traps, crab traps and longline, even though you could just throw them into the sea and leave them there until the time came to collect them.
However, it will take time to put it in the sea.
It also takes time to collect the money.
He had no idea how long the assignment would take, how troublesome it would be, or whether he and Aqing could manage it.
We can only take it one step at a time.
There's no way to gain experience through shortcuts; you can only accumulate it little by little.
We played until noon, then went home for lunch.
After dinner, I went back to my old house for a nap and slept until I naturally woke up.
After waking up.
The hangover completely disappeared, and I felt refreshed.
Ah, that feels so good.
This is life.
I called Aqing, and she arrived shortly after with her tools.
Aqing was a little anxious: "Brother, the tide will come in in a little over two hours."
Wu An nodded and led him straight to the east side of the dock.
It's still that same rocky beach.
Gu Anran was indeed there.
Wu An sometimes admired Gu Anran. She was always busy. She would come to the beach to collect seafood, then go back to clean up, set up a stall the next day at noon, and then come back to collect seafood again in the afternoon.
They probably made quite a bit of money that day.
Gu Anran didn't look wealthy; she only had a few pieces of clothing.
He didn't ask.
But through her father's notebook, she also learned that Gu Anran spent all the money she earned on her grandmother.
Her uncle never cared about her and would occasionally come to freeload.
He strode over.
Aunt Gu saw that he was quite enthusiastic and took the initiative to greet him: "Handsome boy, it's been several days since I've seen you."
"You're not being diligent enough."
"It's one thing if you're not actively trying to make money by beachcombing, but don't you want to see Anran every day?"
Wu An laughed and said, "Auntie, is it possible that even if I don't come here to go beachcombing, I can still see Anran every day?"
Aunt Gu immediately became gossipy.
Wu An said nothing.
Gu Anran simply smiled and shook her head.
Aqing quickly struck up a conversation with Aunt Gu, asking if there was any seafood over there and asking Aunt Gu to take him there. Aunt Gu was so busy with this that she didn't have time to tease the "young couple."
Gu Anran asked, "You didn't throw up when you got home, did you?"
Wu An shook his head: "No."
"I feel so comfortable after drinking the lemon honey water you made."
“I tried making it at home, but it just doesn’t taste the same as yours.”
“Then I’ll make it for you next time.” Gu Anran paused here, looked up at him, and said, “You remember it quite clearly. I thought you would black out after being so drunk yesterday.”
Wu An chuckled awkwardly twice: "I don't black out when I'm drunk."
Gu Anran gave him a "you'd better be" look.
Wu An quickly asked, "How's it going over here?"
Gu Anran said, "It's the same as usual, nothing special."
Wu An was too lazy to run around, so he distributed his luck points evenly and started working not far from Gu Anran. Anyway, he only had so few luck points, and even digging for clams would use them up.
After digging for a while, he looked up at Gu Anran and didn't feel tired at all.
Occasionally, Gu Anran would glance over, and their eyes would meet, creating a unique feeling in their hearts.
Not far away.
Mao Wang and Shen Fang were also beachcombing. Seeing the two of them chatting and laughing while beachcombing, Shen Fang angrily threw down her shovel and said, "I'm not digging anymore."
Mao Wang looked up and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing?"
"Then why did you stop digging?"
"I don't want to dig anymore."
Why?
"Aren't you annoying? There's no reason why."
"Really?"
Every word Mao Wang said seemed to hit a nerve. Shen Fang wasn't that angry at first, but as he kept asking her questions, her temper started to rise rapidly.
Mao Wang only noticed Wu An and Gu Anran at this moment, and quickly comforted them, "Don't look at them, just pretend they don't exist."
Shen Fang stamped her foot and walked towards the road.
Mao Wang quickly caught up with him, smiling and talking apologetically.
I just got onto the main road.
Shen Fang suddenly stopped walking, which startled Mao Wang, who quickly dodged to the side. He wiped his sweat and thought with lingering fear, "That was close, I almost bumped into Shen Fang."
What if I bump into her and hurt her?
Mao Wang thought he was such a warm-hearted man, but Shen Fang was like a piece of ancient ice that could never be warmed.
Why did you suddenly stop walking?
"I'm not reconciled!"
"..."
"I'm going to take Wu An back."
"...So what do you plan to do?"
"I heard that Chen Long has been released. He suffered such a huge loss, he certainly won't let it go."
"Right, you're planning to have Chen Long take revenge on Wu An?"
"No, I want Chen Long to take revenge on me!"
"ah?"
"If Chen Long bullies me, it's Wu An's fault. I want to make Wu An feel guilty and sorry for me, so I can take advantage of the situation to control him."
Will this work?
"Whether it works or not, we have to try." Shen Fang said, turning to look at Wu An and Gu Anran not far away, and said through gritted teeth, "Otherwise, if I have to watch them showing affection every day, I'll be driven crazy sooner or later!"
Mao Wang said, feeling wronged, "Didn't you say before that you had already let it go?"
Shen Fang snorted coldly: "So what? Are my words an ironclad law of Heaven that cannot be changed?"
"I can't let go of it now."
"Is that not allowed?"
She felt that Wu An had become so much better because of her.
One generation plants the trees, another enjoys the shade.
Why should Gu Anran get such a huge advantage? She's going to take back what she lost.
She's bound to lose if she relies solely on her looks and figure, so she has to take a risky gamble!
She looked at Mao Wang: "You have to help me."
Mao Wang remained silent.
Shen Fang continued shouting, "You said you would make me happy!"
"Are you just saying that?"
"Men are all the same, never mind..."
Mao Wang's eyes flickered, and he lowered his head and said, "This...this...okay."
"I'll help you."
He agreed anyway.
Everyone says that a warm-hearted man comes after a simp, but what about the ultimate combination of a warm-hearted man and a simp?
Even though Mao Wang was on the verge of collapse, he still chose to help Shen Fang.
