Chapter 1144: We Want to Eat Seafood
“Who lights up fires these days, that’s something cavemen do! People use electricity these days!” Taizao said gleefully. “Look at Lin Yi, lighting a fire there like an idiot, not eco-friendly at all! Also, he might burn himself, too!”
“Fuck, you damn idiot. Where are we supposed to get electricity out here? You didn’t buy one with a cable, did you?” Jianwen was a little panicking.
“Ah... Ganglou probably wouldn’t make a low-level mistake like this!” Taizao said, worried. There weren’t any sockets on the beach!
“Then what’s going on here? Don’t tell me that we’ll be able to use it without plugging it in somewhere!” Jianwen was pissed off.
“An Bro, this is solar-powered, it should be fine....” Taizao was reading the manual. “See, Yang Ganglou’s a pretty smart man. He wouldn’t make low-level mistakes like this!”
“Sun my ass, there’s no sun right now! We might as well get a moon-powered one!” Jianwen was getting pissed off now- solar-powered? It was night time!
“An Bro, calm down! I’ll call him right now, ask what’s going on!” Taizao wiped the sweat off his brow. Why did this damn Ganglou buy something like this??
“Hurry then!” Jianwen said impatiently.
“Ganglou, what’s with this solar-powered barbeque equipment? It’s nighttime right now, how are we supposed to use it?” Taizao scolded right away.
“Taizao Bro, this is the newest high tech product out there now, it’s three in one, the hottest model!” Ganglou said, feeling wronged. “Not only is it solar-powered, but you can use your hands to start a fire, too, and you can also connect it to the car for electricity...”
“Ah, so that’s what it was! Why didn’t you say so earlier?” Taizao said, thinking that this was pretty high tech. He let out a breath of relief. “How’s An Bro’s car coming along?”
“It’s being repaired right now. I’m working on it!” Ganglou said.
“Alright, work on it then–I’ll start the barbeque with An Bro.” Taizao hung up and turned to Jianwen. “An Bro, this isn’t just reliant on solar energy, you can use your hands, or you can connect it to the car for electricity...”
“I see. It seems I’ve misjudged him–this is pretty good stuff. Hurry and plug it to the car, we’re starting!” Jianwen said, happy again.
As expected, it started heating up after getting connected, even glowing rainbow colors.
Taizao took out the meat skewers and chicken wings and all that, putting them on the barbeque equipment and starting the barbeque. The sweet smell of meat filled the air!
“You work on that first- I’ll go get Chu Mengyao’s group to come to eat!” With that, Jianwen walked over to Lin Yi’s side, where Mengyao was helping him. “You guys are here too? Lil sis Yao Yao, we’re doing a barbeque over there, you guys want to come and eat? I’ll let Taizao get you guys your favorite food!”
Mengyao frowned. She thought that it would take a while before Jianwen came over to bother them, but he was here right after they reached!
“We already prepared–you guys enjoy. Thanks for the offer, though.” Mengyao said, not being too cold or passionate.
“Haha, it’s fine–it’s just us two, and we have a lot. We’ve got mutton skewers, ribs, veggies, wings...” Jianwen said as he started advertising.
“Yao Yao, and I want to eat seafood!” Yushu interrupted.
“Huh? Seafood??” Jianwen blinked. He didn’t go through the stuff in his trunk, but he saw that it was all lamb and chicken and cow, there was no seafood! “What’s the point of doing a seafood barbeque at the beach, right? Why do you have to eat seafood?”
“Of course we have to eat seafood at the beach, that’s how you set the mood! You eat it with the sea breeze, that’s the point. You can eat regular barbeque anywhere. We can even do it in our backyard! If you don’t have seafood, then scram, don’t interrupt us!” Yushu’s words rendered Jianwen speechless.
“But... But there’s no seafood here too?” Jainwen asked bitterly.
“Isn’t their plenty of seafood in the sea? What a joke!” Yushu said as she pointed at the sea.
“UGh... I see... Alright, you guys wait...” Jianwen had no choice- he had to go back and discuss strategy with Taizao.
He felt that he’d messed up–he should’ve asked them what they wanted to eat back at the villa, it was already too late now!
“Shu, you’re so bad–you’re not trying to get them to go into the sea to get seafood, right?” Mengyao couldn’t help but smile- wasn’t this torture?
“I’m not trying to do anything at all–but he could do that if he wanted to!” Yushu shook her head gravely.
Mengyao shook her head as well. From what she knew of Jianwen’s personality, he would probably send Taizao to fish out seafood, but what were they supposed to fish out when it was so dark?
As expected, that was exactly what they were discussing!
Lamb skewers and chicken wings were great, but the girls weren’t interested, so there was no point! Jianwen’s purpose here was to attract Mengyao’s attention, after all, and now that she wanted seafood, he had to try and fulfill her desires!
“You go drive the car to the beach and shine a light on it. We’ll two will go down and try to get some seafood!” Jainwen gritted his teeth.
“Alright!” Taizao would naturally carry out any of Jainwen’s orders. He didn’t want to go down the sea in the middle of the night to fish for seafood, but Jainwen was going himself. He had to follow suit!
Jianwen and Taizao changed into swimwear, and, in the light of the headlights, they jumped into the sea!
But where the hell were they supposed to get seafood in a situation like this? They wouldn’t be able to get anything in shallow waters like this in the day, let alone the night! They’d had to go to deeper areas, but it was completely dark in those places right now. He may be brave, but Jianwen didn’t want to go too deep. He would die if he wasn’t careful! This wasn’t a swimming area, who knew what dangers lurked down there?
And so, the two only searched around in the shallow areas, only finding a couple of conches and clams. There were fish and crabs nearby, but those weren’t something you could just find at night.
