I Go to the High Seas for Fishing But Get Hunted by an Aircraft Carrier
Chapter 67: Got Pinched?

Chapter 67: Chapter 67: Got Pinched?

One thousand a day, seven thousand a week.

So this seven thousand yuan isn’t actually a salary from Teacher Ye, but money that my own grandpa put up himself!

What’s more hateful than my grandpa losing a bet and not telling me is this guy called Ye Chen.

He clearly knew about this.

Yet he took advantage of the information gap, claiming he would increase my salary, and then made a bet with me...

And conned another seven thousand yuan from my grandpa!

To put it simply, it was because my grandpa made a bet and got swindled by Ye Chen.

And for the sake of his pride, my grandpa swindled me!

And I didn’t even know about it, so I got swindled by Ye Chen!

Willing to abide by the outcome of a bet, with Liao Xuexue’s strong personality, she wouldn’t fail to acknowledge her loss.

So...

I’ve lost seven days of my time, and my grandpa has lost fourteen thousand yuan!

While Ye Chen has become the ultimate winner.

At this moment, Liao Xuexue finally understood why, when she first arrived here, the few old men around were looking at Ye Chen with newfound respect.

And also why my grandpa repeatedly warned me that Ye Chen was no good, telling me to stay away from him.

Especially to not bet with Ye Chen.

Now she had thought it through.

Later, when grandpa realized that the fourteen thousand yuan ended up in Ye Chen’s pocket, he was so angry that it looked as though he wanted to tear Ye Chen apart.

She understood now!

Unbelievable!

It seems like the whole world knew about it, and only I was kept in the dark!

Liao Xuexue lifted her head, pouting, her face full of resentment.

But seeing how these two were acting right now, her anger dissipated instantly.

At this moment, Old Liao was hanging his head, not daring to look Liao Xuexue in the eyes, like a child who had done something wrong.

No matter what, this was still her grandpa.

At the time, her grandpa wanted to use the opportunity to give Liao Xuexue some pocket money.

Moreover, in this matter, her grandpa was also a victim.

Liao Xuexue well knew that her grandma always controlled her grandpa’s money, and she didn’t know where he had scrounged up this fourteen thousand from.

In the end...

Liao Xuexue sighed helplessly and transferred her own money to grandpa.

"Grandpa, I’ve transferred the money to you, please don’t bet with anyone again..."

Old Liao was taken aback, feeling even more ashamed after hearing this: "No, no, how can an elder take money from the younger? This isn’t right..."

Perhaps he realized that he was the elder and was being lectured by his granddaughter at this moment.

So, after saying that, he added in a low voice: "Don’t mention it, you also bet with someone and lost, didn’t you?"

A twinge appeared in the corner of Liao Xuexue’s eye.

Heh, this old man truly...

But if she were to get angry at Ye Chen, she would be even less justified.

At this moment, Ye Chen was staring intently at Liao Xuexue.

Though Ye Chen hadn’t spoken.

Liao Xuexue could still discern his thoughts from his gaze.

Ye Chen’s expression right now clearly was...

You can’t be serious, right? You’re not thinking of reneging, are you?

Thus, poor Liao Xuexue could only let out a long sigh and choose to accept the loss.

"Teacher Ye, since my grandpa lost the bet, I’ll honor the bet and be your assistant for a week, helping you bait and catch fish."

"As for the bet between you and me, I won’t go back on my word, after all, it was me who bet and lost to you."

Hearing this, Ye Chen was somewhat surprised and felt even more favorable towards Liao Xuexue.

This girl doesn’t seem to take after her grandfather; she has quite a backbone.

Thinking this, Ye Chen nodded and gave Liao Xuexue a thumb up, admiringly saying, "Hmm, a true warrior...no, a true heroine!"

Who would have guessed, Liao Xuexue actually huffed coldly, and resentfully said, "Hmph, my grandfather was right after all, you are not a good person!"

"Why didn’t that Hand Grenade explode next to you just now?"

Ye Chen pursed his lips, teasingly saying, "Tsk tsk, do women’s minds change this quickly?"

"When you first held me, you were still calling me Teacher Ye."

"Now you’re saying I’m not a good person again..."

"Tsk tsk, oops!"

"What did you say!" Liao Xuexue stomped her feet in irritation, her pretty face flushed red.

She naturally knew what Ye Chen meant by the holding; it was when she almost fell into the water from shock after seeing the little Water Snake that Ye Chen fished up.

So, in a rush, she had no choice but to hold onto Ye Chen.

But as angry as she was, it was true that Ye Chen saved her.

For a moment, the naïve sweet Liao Xuexue was at a loss for words.

In desperation, she clenched her teeth and said, "Ye Chen, just you wait, between us..."

"It’s not over!"

Having said that, she turned around and left.

Ye Chen looked at her frustrated figure and flowing long hair and sighed with a bitter smile.

At the same time, if someone who knew Liao Xuexue well, like Old Liao for instance, saw her acting this way, they would be greatly surprised.

At this moment, Old Liao’s feelings were complicated.

Perhaps because his granddaughter had been excellent from a young age.

So, whether at school or at home, she was always composed and polite.

Especially after she grew up, she was exceptionally courteous to everyone.

Her emotions rarely fluctuated.

Old Liao hadn’t seen Liao Xuexue get this worked up in a long time.

Suddenly, he felt a foreboding feeling.

If a girl’s emotions are controlled by a boy, it’s not far before her heart is also controlled by him.

Thinking this, Old Liao just wanted to shout: Damn it!

Ye Chen really has excellent fishing skills, utterly merciless!

Of course, since he himself had deceived his granddaughter...

Right now, Old Liao felt a bit too embarrassed to advise his granddaughter anymore.

He hoped tomorrow, she wouldn’t follow that kid Ye Chen again.

Even if she does follow Ye Chen, she shouldn’t show him any good attitude.

As Old Liao was pondering these things.

The corner of his eye twitched violently again.

The girl who had walked far away was turning back halfway through?

"Xuexue, you... why did you come back?"

Liao Xuexue glanced at Ye Chen with annoyance and said in a low voice, "I haven’t finished my work yet, I need to help Teacher Ye clean up the fishing gear and scrub the bucket, right?"

Having said that.

Liao Xuexue went to help Ye Chen pack up the fishing gear.

As for the other anglers, they had already packed up their gear earlier.

Now they were quietly discussing on the side as they watched Old Liao’s granddaughter help Ye Chen tidy up.

"Seriously, this girl is way better than Old Liao, I think she’s quite a match for Teacher Ye."

"Old Liao? That guy’s too concerned with face and has a thick skin; by comparison, his granddaughter really is pretty great."
