I Go to the High Seas for Fishing But Get Hunted by an Aircraft Carrier
Chapter 212: Eating Crocodile Meat

Chapter 212: Chapter 212: Eating Crocodile Meat

In the end, the lady boss and the boss brought out several platters of crocodile meat from the kitchen.

There was braised crocodile meat, sweet and sour crocodile meat, steamed crocodile meat, and grilled crocodile.

There was also a dish of crocodile sashimi, but the old men couldn’t take it.

Ye Chen and Liao Xuexue, the two youngsters, also found it hard to accept, so the boss eventually set up a small hot pot for everyone to enjoy the crocodile meat.

Spicy crocodile meat!

Inside the house, Ye Chen and the others were in high spirits, not expecting to have crocodile, which none of them had ever eaten before.

The old men were even more excited as they began to drink baijiu.

Ye Chen was naturally in an even better mood.

Although they didn’t catch any fish today, they caught a crocodile instead.

After all, crocodile also has the word "fish" in it.

He believed this was a small step for him, but a big step in his fishing career.

Maybe in the future, he could catch real fish?

Therefore, today Ye Chen also joined the old men in drinking some alcohol.

Everyone enjoyed their drinks and conversations, savoring the hot crocodile meat while chatting enthusiastically.

The braised crocodile and crocodile hot pot were the tastiest dishes of the feast.

Despite the crocodile’s odd appearance, the meat was indeed delicious, especially in the hot pot, where the crocodile meat was cooked and then scooped out, giving a tender and fresh taste.

The crocodile meat had a texture similar to rabbit meat, yet it also had the freshness of fish.

The meat was fatty but not greasy, lean but not dry, making everyone’s mouth oily.

Especially the braised crocodile meat, with the owner’s special braised sauce poured over the tender crocodile meat, created an explosion of flavor with each bite, leaving everyone extremely satisfied.

At this moment, old Zhang head, who wore a white cap, was enjoying the meat and took a sip of alcohol.

He then asked, "By the way, Teacher Ye, where are we going fishing tomorrow?"

Ye Chen wiped the oil from the corner of his mouth and slowly said, "Let’s take a break tomorrow since it’s Friday."

After saying this, Ye Chen turned to Liao Xuexue and said, "This little girl hasn’t attended her classes properly these days as she has been following us; let her attend her classes properly tomorrow, and we will go back to fishing on Saturday!"

Fishing every day had indeed been tiring.

Mainly because they hadn’t caught many fish, which was mentally exhausting...

Hearing this, Liao Xuexue was startled, and then her heart began racing.

Was he showing concern for her?

With this thought, she glanced shyly at Ye Chen sitting next to her, blushing.

At that moment, hearing Ye Chen’s words, the old men immediately started murmuring among themselves.

"Teacher Ye, you don’t just want to rest, you want the girl to study properly, right?"

"Teacher Ye, how does the trendy online saying go? You’re such a warm man!"

"Hahaha, Teacher Ye, your mind isn’t on the liquor!"

"But kidding aside, how far have you progressed with the young lady?"

Hearing these old men joking about his granddaughter, old Liao head snorted coldly.

"Nonsense, maybe Teacher Ye just wants to rest."

And Ye Chen didn’t say much about everyone’s teasing.

After everyone was full of food and drink, they went their separate ways and went home.

Before leaving, old Liao head, with a strange expression, stopped Ye Chen and asked him to take Liao Xuexue back to school.

Under the street lights, Liao Xuexue’s little face was particularly charming.

Ye Chen didn’t say much, glancing strangely at old Liao head, then gestured to Liao Xuexue.

"Since old Liao head said so, I’ll take you back to school then."

Liao Xuexue obediently nodded and climbed into the back of Ye Chen’s tricycle.

Early autumn nights are still quite cool.

The two remained silent as Ye Chen escorted Liao Xuexue to the school gate.

Liao Xuexue hopped off the tricycle, her face flushed as she approached Ye Chen.

Ye Chen was startled and gave Liao Xuexue a quick once-over, asking puzzledly, "What’s wrong, is there something you need?"

Liao Xuexue nodded without saying a word.

This only added to Ye Chen’s confusion.

"Hmm? What’s up?"

The next second, Liao Xuexue tiptoed and gently pecked Ye Chen’s cheek.

"Thank you for taking me back!"

Having said that, the girl dashed off into the school without looking back.

Ye Chen stood there stunned, somewhat taken aback as he touched his cheek.

This girl...

With a wry smile, Ye Chen helplessly shook his head and then rode his tricycle back to his small courtyard.

After returning home, he first cleaned up and then went back to his room to, as usual, check the live stream earnings on the Kuaishou platform.

He was surprised to find that today’s live stream earnings were off the charts, reaching as much as five hundred thousand for a single session!

Ye Chen gasped in astonishment and glanced once more at his followers.

Now his follower count had reached forty-seven million!

Just yesterday, it was forty-two million. In just one day, he had gained five million followers!

Truly terrifying!

It was probably because he had been featured in the national media news flashes continuously twice.

Plus, with the discovery of the Tang Dynasty tomb cluster in Jiang City and various other trending issues accumulating.

Hence he was able to gain so many followers in such a short time...

It really was thrilling!

Afterward, he checked his private messages.

The private messages were overwhelming, he glanced over them briefly, and most were expressions of admiration and adoration for him.

Speaking of which, ever since the issue with Cui Ruogou came up.

He no longer had any detractors or keyboard warriors online, which was indeed a relief...

At the same time, Ye Chen noticed a few top-ranking private messages.

One of the IDs was named Zeng Hui Kuaiyi Martial Arts World --- Zeng Jupen.

Ye Chen raised an eyebrow, wasn’t this Teacher Zeng?

He clicked into the private message with interest and read it.

Turns out, Zeng Jupen also wanted to collaborate with him.

In the message, Zeng Jupen suggested taking Ye Chen along to corner a notorious boss, making him truly cry.

Ye Chen smacked his lips, indicating no problem to Zeng Jupen.

After all, even before he became active, Zeng Jupen was already a leader among fishing streamers.

He certainly deserved respect.

What Ye Chen did not expect was that Zeng Jupen would reply to him immediately.

After chatting briefly, they added each other on WeChat.

At the same time, Ye Chen received a message from Teacher Deng Long on WeChat.

"Teacher Ye, the national fishing competition starts next month, just over twenty days away. It will be held in Liucheng, and fishermen from all over the country will gather there. I’ve submitted your application for participation, and I guess the organizers will contact you in the next few days."

Looking at Teacher Deng Long’s message, Ye Chen pondered.

Liucheng...

He had indeed heard of this place.
