Chapter 337 - 337 Going Fishing

337 Going Fishing

After she was done making the desserts in the morning, she was worried about the shaved ice melting before they got to enjoy it, so she placed it with a pile of ice cubes to keep it cold. When the kids were done playing, they moved to a spot that was nearer to the residence to rest. After which, she got Jiang Danhe to go back and get the desserts for her.

Knowing that the ice would melt during transportation, she wrapped everything with a layer of ultra thick cotton. When she received the bundle, It was still freezing cold.

“There’s nothing missing.” Xiaoguo checked the contents and realized that the five portions were all there. There was also a pot of iced fruit tea that she made earlier. “Stop playing. Come and eat the iced porridge!”

The two children had been looking forward to this since the morning. When they heard Xiaoguo call them, they immediately let go of Li Shouji and ran over.

“Coming, coming!”

“Ice porridge, ice porridge!”

The two children scooped out a spoonful of porridge and put it into their mouths. They relished the desserts with their eyes closed and kept saying the word delicious.

Xiaoyi excitedly scooped out a spoonful and brought it to Zhuang Zhuang’s mouth. He couldn’t wait to share it with him. “Zhuang Zhuang, try my strawberry flavored porridge!”

Zhuang Zhuang’s eyes lit up after eating. “It’s delicious! Try mine with the mango jam!”

Hence, the two little ones each hugged a bowl of cold porridge and started feeding each other. They looked extremely adorable.

Li Shouji managed to shake off the two children and came to sit beside Jiang Danhe. He looked exhausted, seemingly overwhelmed by the brainwashing session.

Xiaoguo handed him the mango-flavored ice porridge and asked in amusement, “Do you know Sun Wukong now?”

Li Shouji took the ice porridge and chuckled. “What Sun Wukong? He’s the Great Sage.”

Xiaoguo and Jiang Danhe looked at each other and smiled. Alright, the brainwashing was a success.

The three of them finished their iced porridge and continued playing for a while. They took breaks when they got tired. When they felt thirsty, they drank some iced fruit tea.

Apart from the workers, there was no one else on the entire island. Among the group of people who came to the resort, only Xiaoguo and her gang often ventured outside. The others were comfortably cooped up in their rooms, fanning themselves and staying beside the ice cubes.

As the island was located near the sea, seafood was served as part of their daily meals. Even though Xiaoguo loved seafood very much, she was starting to get tired of eating it.

Of course, the most important reason was they always cooked the seafood in the same way. The dishes were either steamed or boiled. The chefs were too focused on keeping the original flavors of the seafood.

Xiaoguo wasn’t the only one. Although Zhuang Zhuang and Xiaoyi were still young, they were also getting sick of eating seafood. Whenever they saw seafood, they felt like vomiting.

Jiang Danhe was still okay with it since he was not picky about food. But he was starting to get tired of eating seafood.

“Mother… cook for us once…”

This was the umpteenth time Zhuang Zhuang had pleaded with her today. Even Xiaoyi started doing the same too.

Jiang Danhe looked at her expectantly when he heard the kids. He looked like he was waiting for her to say yes.

Xiaoguo pretended to be troubled and thought for a moment. “I’m here on vacation. I don’t feel like working.”

“Mother…”

“Xiaoguo…”

“Please…”

Unexpectedly, after hearing her words, the three drama kings immediately displayed their unhappiness. They started to act cute and tried all sorts of ways to persuade her. They shook her arms and kissed her on the cheeks, leaving her with no room to resist. Even Jiang Danhe took the opportunity to kiss her a few times.

“Alright, alright…” Xiaoguo quickly broke away from them and wiped the saliva off her face. She looked at their expectant faces and said helplessly, “Alright, I will cook.”

“Yay!”

“That’s wonderful!”

“Thank you…”

The three of them looked like they had won a battle. They smiled and tried to push her to the kitchen.

“We just finished lunch!”

Xiaoguo grabbed the door frame and looked back at them.

The three of them suddenly remembered that they had just eaten. They looked at each other and had no choice but to give up. It would be dinner time again after their nap.

As long as Xiaoguo was willing to cook, they could wait no matter how late it was.

“Where are we going today?”

Li Shouji’s excited voice sounded.

“What do you mean?” Xiaoguo asked back. Then she saw his attire, and asked him curiously, “Where are you going?”

When Li Shouji heard her question, he disregarded his last question. Instead, he swung his fishing rod happily and said energetically, “We’re going fishing!”

“Fishing?”

“Going out to sea?”

Xiaoguo and Jiang Danhe spoke at the same time, but they were concerned about different things. She was interested in fishing, but Jiang Danhe was more interested in going out to sea.

“That’s right!”

Li Shouji grabbed his equipment tightly and was about to leave when Xiaoguo quickly stopped him. “How are you going? I want to go too.”

“We’ll take a boat out. There are small boats specially made for fishing. We won’t go far, we’ll just fish in the waters nearby.”

“Let’s go together!”

Although she didn’t want to eat seafood anymore, she was still interested in fishing. With that, she got ready to set off with Li Shouji.

Seeing this, Jiang Danhe quickly pulled her back and said pitifully, “Let’s go together.”

It would seem like a great injustice if Xiaoguo did not allow him to follow her.

“Let’s go.”

Xiaoguo was extremely excited. With a wave of her hand, she led the way towards the sea.

...

Li Shouji, Xiaoguo, and Jiang Danhe were getting ready to set off together, but the three of them seemed to have forgotten about the two younger ones.

When they finally thought of the kids, they spotted the two little tails following behind them. Fortunately, they had not gone far when Jiang Danhe grabbed them and brought them back. Children could not sit still. When the time came, they would make a fuss and ask for the adults to bring them back. Moreover, what if they fell into the water?

“Go take an afternoon nap. Otherwise, I’m not going to make dinner.”

The two children were unhappy at first and wanted to kick up a fuss, but as soon as Xiaoguo uttered those words, they immediately calmed down and obediently returned to the house. They lay down on the bed and closed their eyes to rest.

Xiaoguo nodded in satisfaction and turned to say to the two men, “Okay, let’s go.”

With a single sentence, Xiaoguo managed to settle the kids. Whereas Jiang Danhe spent a long time coaxing them but to no avail. Looking at her confident back view, he heaved a sigh of relief. while exclaiming in his heart, “Wife, you’re so mighty and domineering!”

When they arrived at the beach, they happened to come across a small boat docked by the sea. There was an empty fishing net on it. After asking the guards, they found out that this was docked by the stewards from the kitchen and they had just returned from fishing. The boat was free and available for use.

The few of them were relieved when they heard that. They started pushing the boat and the net into the sea.

The boat was a medium-sized one. There was more than enough space for three people. The two men each took one end while Xiaoguo sat in the middle. When the boat was some distance away from the shore, she threw down the anchor and started preparing the fishing gear.

There were two sets of fishing rods to share between the three of them. Li Shouji took one set and Xiaoguo took the other. Jiang Danhe wasn’t very interested in fishing. He had only come along because he wanted to stay by Xiaoguo’s side to protect her. Hence, he casually threw over the fishing net in a random spot after throwing in some fish food. He didn’t keep watch beside the net but lay down on the boat instead. He rested his chin on one hand and admired Xiaoguo’s side profile in fascination. “Just look at his beautiful Xiaoguo, even her side profile was so beautiful.”

The few of them had come out in a hurry and had forgotten to bring their umbrellas. There were no big trees to shade them from the sun. The two men were fine, but it was hard on Xiaoguo. Her fair skin quickly turned red under the sun, and then it slowly looked like she was getting sunburn.

...

Seeing this, Jiang Danhe did not delay any longer. He quickly took off his robe and used himself as a support to shield her from the sun.

Xiaoguo’s narrowed eyes instantly opened. She rubbed her eyes and realized that it didn’t seem so sunny all of a sudden. Just as she was looking up in wonder, Jiang Danhe’s laughter rang in her ears.

“You silly girl.”

Xiaoguo turned around and saw that he was shielding her from the sun. Her heart ached for him. He must be feeling sore from holding up his arms. “Are you tired?”

“I’m not tired. I’ll never get tired of shielding you.”

Jiang Danhe was very good at uttering sweet nothings nowadays. He always managed to make Xiaoguo blush and get her heart racing.

It was the same this time. However, the romance in the air was interrupted by the insensitive Li Shouji.
