Chapter 229: Chapter 197: Kiss an Eel Chapter 229: Chapter 197: Kiss an Eel “`
Bringing ho a cute, well-behaved, and beautiful girlfriend, Chu Mingcheng wasn’t surprised when his parents warmly welcod her, so warmly that they practically ignored him.
But he was quite happy with this, as it ant he didn’t have to deal with the headache of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationships.
As a child, he had seen his fair share of conflicts between his own mother and grandmother, so much so that it nearly caused Chu Yongxin to stress into white hair.
After coming back from his regular work, he had to console one side, then the other. This was partly the reason he bought a house in town later on.
In the evening, Chef Chu took charge of the kitchen, and Jiang Luoluo wanted to help, but An Xiuwen quickly shooed her out.
“Ah Cheng, why don’t you take Luoluo for a walk nearby? Co back for dinner when it gets dark,” An Xiuwen suggested.
Chu Mingcheng nodded and then took her hand, “Let’s go, we’ll stroll around the back hill.”
“Okay!” Jiang Luoluo agreed cheerfully.
As they walked out the door, they saw Xiao Bai had sohow returned, holding a mouse in its mouth.
“Huh, I rember Xiao Bai stopped eating mice when we were in Xia City, so why start again as soon as we co back ho?” Jiang Luoluo found it odd.
Chu Mingcheng pondered, “Maybe, this is the taste of ho?”
“Haha, maybe it really is!” Jiang Luoluo wasn’t planning to leave, but instead took out her phone, quite interested in watching Xiao Bai play with the mouse.
Its situation was now different from when she first t Chu Mingcheng. Back then, it had to fend for itself, and with babies in its belly, nutritional supplents were the first choice.
So back then, it rarely played with mice. When it caught them, it was usually in a state of hunger and would go straight for the kill.
But now, without the pressure of food, eating mice was more of a habit, and possibly because the mice had sothing it needed.
So now it kept teasing the mouse in the yard, attracting three kittens to co over.
The three kittens were now almost two months old. Though they were still little, with the protection of the adult cat, they had no problem ganging up on a decently sized mouse.
The poor mouse was in for a rough ti, getting pumled with six Cat Fists whenever it encountered the three kittens.
And with Xiao Bai, it occasionally got to experience the thrill of being a flying mouse in the air.
Xiao Bai, holding on to it, liked to toss it into the air and then stand up to catch it with its Cat Fists.
Battered and hamred, the mouse was beyond disheartened and at one point, it suddenly leaped up, delivering itself right into Xiao Bai’s mouth.
The next scene would require a mature mouse accompanying the younger viewer!
They no longer watched Xiao Bai and its family feast on the mouse but held hands, ready to wander out and about.
“Where shall we go?” asked Jiang Luoluo.
“How about we head to the reservoir on the mountain? I’ll perform a magic trick for you.” Yann Island had no real attractions for Chu Mingcheng.
As for beaches, weren’t the beaches in Xia City beautiful enough? Jiang Luoluo must have gotten tired of them.
What could impress her now, must be sothing like the crystal-clear waters near the Xisha coral reefs!
So he thought of the fishing function of High-quality Aquatic Products, which might attract so premium aquatic animals close to the shore if they were lucky.
Otherwise, he really didn’t know where to take his girlfriend to kill ti.
Jiang Luoluo, hearing Chu Mingcheng ntioning magic, was skeptical, “You know magic? What kind of magic requires going to the reservoir?”
“You’ll know when we get there.”
With that, Chu Mingcheng grabbed a bucket and a clam rake from the house, placed them on the car in the backyard, and then drove towards the reservoir on the mountain.
The drive was quick, about ten minutes, but walking there might take more than an hour.
They got out of the car and approached the reservoir.
The cold weather couldn’t dampen the ardor of the fishing aficionados, and they saw five Fishing n sitting quietly on their tackle boxes by the reservoir.
Chu Mingcheng and Jiang Luoluo did not disturb them. He took the bucket and clam rake from the car and went to an open area with patches of aquatic plants in the shallows.
“What are you going to catch?”
Jiang Luoluo followed, sowhat puzzled.
“Do you believe that sothing will co out of the water on its own soon?” Chu Mingcheng had already activated the fishing function, now just waiting for the premium creatures within a ten-ter radius to co forth.
He chose the shallows with aquatic plants considering there was a higher chance of finding sothing there, which would greatly increase the chance of success.
“Co out of the water on its own? Are you saying they’re dumb, or am I easily fooled?” Jiang Luoluo felt there had to be so basis for Chu Mingcheng’s words, but still did not believe it.
Chu Mingcheng, with a sly smile, pointed to his own face and said, “Actually, it’s very simple. Just give a kiss and you’ll understand.”
“You’re not just trying to take advantage, are you?” Jiang Luoluo glanced at him suspiciously. But since he was her boyfriend, and they had been even more intimate, a peck on the cheek surely wasn’t a big deal.
So she leaned in and tiptoed to lightly kiss his face, “There, does that satisfy you? Now you should tell the reason, right?”
Chu Mingcheng was about to ask her to wait, but his sharp eyes caught a thick aquatic creature crawling towards them.
Startled, he first thought it was a snake, but upon closer inspection, it turned out to be an eel.
So he imdiately pointed at the eel, “Look, here it cos!”
“…” Jiang Luoluo didn’t expect to be proved wrong so quickly, but she still thought it a coincidence.
However, the eel kept crawling towards them. She kept quiet, waiting for Chu Mingcheng to catch it first.
Chu Mingcheng certainly didn’t want to miss this opportunity. Before the eel could get too close, he was already poised with his clam rake.
Holding his breath, he watched the eel erge from the water, crawl ashore, and co close. Only then did he swiftly clamp down with the rake, and before the eel could react, he had already placed it in the bucket.
“`
Jiang Luoluo finally spoke up, “This eel is way too big! But I feel like it’s kind of dumb, it keeps crawling towards us even with two big humans standing right here.”
“It’s not dumb, I used magic to lure it over.”
“Since when can you perform magic?”
“That was when you kissed !”
“Uh… surely they wouldn’t co out to beat us up just because they can’t stand to see us being affectionate?”
“Oh, my Luoluo is so clever.”
“Stop kidding around, I’m seriously asking you!”
While Chu Mingcheng verbally placated her, his eyes were firmly fixed on the situation in the waterweeds!
He was expecting one or two fish to swim by, but instead, another eel appeared, so he pointed to his left cheek again and said, “If you don’t believe it, then kiss again to see!”
Without any hesitation this ti, Jiang Luoluo went straight in for the kiss.
Right after she kissed him, Chu Mingcheng imdiately pointed to the eel in the water and said, “Look, here cos another one!”
“…” Jiang Luoluo looked in the direction Chu Mingcheng pointed, and sure enough, there was another one, which truly made her doubt life, “How is that possible?”
“There’s nothing impossible about it. Haven’t you noticed? Every ti you co out to sea with , I always end up with exceptionally good catches,” Chu Mingcheng bluffed non-stop.
Yet, Jiang Luoluo’s heart was swayed, “Really?”
“Of course, I’ve noticed it a long ti ago,” Chu Mingcheng nodded earnestly, “That’s why we are a match made in heaven.”
“All nonsense!” Jiang Luoluo was a bit embarrassed by his words, but she started to believe it deep down.
After that, Chu Mingcheng began to roam the shore. Every ti she kissed him, an eel would crawl onto the land, and there were also crucian carps.
However, the crucian carps were difficult to catch and got away.
It was a bit of a pity that the fish escaped, so Jiang Luoluo simply gave Chu Mingcheng a deep kiss, and unexpectedly, a wild turtle crawled up.
Though not very big, only weighing a little over two pounds, this was enough to surprise her.
In just that short ti, they caught six eels and one wild turtle.
Of course, Jiang Luoluo thought it was all because of their kisses.
But in reality, it was all because Chu Mingcheng saw them first and then asked her to kiss him.
He was just casually checking the situation and teasing his girlfriend when he discovered that the reservoir was teeming with eels.
The fish-attracting effect was only 10%, but it had already lured in six eels. Wouldn’t it be even more exciting if the level were higher?
But he knew when to stop, especially since the fishern on the shore were already giving them strange looks.
It couldn’t be helped; now that it was cold, the fish had retreated to the depths and weren’t feeding much.
Almost all of these fishern were catching nothing, maybe just a few small whitebaits at best.
Now here they were, not only flaunting their love but also occasionally catching eels and even a wild turtle.
They had both love and harvest in such a short span of ti.
If he kept at it, that would be downright inhuman, and he would surely invite envy.
To avoid turning into a dog, he decisively pulled Jiang Luoluo away.
And at the mont their figures disappeared, the fishern on the shore sprang into action, packed up their fishing rods, grabbed their tackle boxes, and imdiately ran towards the spot where they had been.
Chu Mingcheng had no idea what the fishern were up to; he was in a good mood.
With the fish-attracting feature, looking for prey in the coral reefs or among the rocks while diving would beco much easier!
And he would also have a better chance of catching live ones, which after all are more expensive than the dead ones.
“Ah Cheng, where to next? Shall we also go to the seaside?” Jiang Luoluo, sitting in the passenger seat, looked eager to try, clearly finding this kind of fun and not yet satisfied.
“No rush, we’ll play like this when we go for a picnic. We’ll tease Chen Yang and the others. Plus, the coast here doesn’t have much to attract envy.”
“Oh, that’s a good idea, let’s do that then.”
Afterward, the couple who had been out for less than half an hour returned ho.
After parking the car, Chu Mingcheng carried the bucket into the kitchen, “Dad, I caught so stuff, you decide what to do with it.”
Chu Yongxin looked down, “Where did you guys buy this?”
“Not bought, we just caught them at the reservoir up in the mountains.”
“Who are you fooling? How could you have caught these so quickly?”
“Uncle, it’s true, I saw Ah Cheng catch them myself. It’s just that these eels are a bit dumb and crawled out on their own, so it was easy to catch them.”
Chu Yingxin might not believe Chu Mingcheng, but with Jiang Luoluo saying so, he had no choice but to believe it, although he still found it strange.
“How could they possibly co out in this cold weather?”
He could overlook the eel, as it might have had a spasm and crawled out from its hiding spot.
But turtles hibernate during the winter, and he was indeed curious about how Chu Mingcheng had managed to catch one.
However, he was busy at the mont, so he held onto his questions, deciding to ask later when he had the ti.
