As a Fisherman, My Fish Can Level Up-Chapter 171 - 159: Never Been So Wealthy

Chapter 171: Chapter 159: Never Been So Wealthy

The date had come to December 1st. Chu Mingcheng was expected to come home for the lunar New Year around forty days later, which was around the twentieth of the twelfth lunar month, and Jiang Luoluo was also planning to return home during that time.

When she suggested buying a boat together, Chu Mingcheng felt that he should carefully plan a confession ceremony that could give her a sense of security.

The sense of security Jiang Luoluo needed was a bit metaphysical and difficult to grasp for him.

After all, for many women, having money equates to having “security,” which is easier to achieve.

But the easy achievements come with side effects… like affairs, using your money to support their own family, or even moving to separate beds shortly and then smoothly initiating a divorce.

Of course, the occurrence of side effects is contingent.

For instance, if you have a lot but only give a little which still appears generous to her, she will definitely be obedient.

Or if you don’t have much, but give nearly everything you have, it’s likely to trigger side effects.

However, a good and independent woman with strong career ambitions like Jiang Luoluo cannot be judged by those standards.

Chu Mingcheng thought that it was normal for good women to be hard to win over.

He agonized all last night about how to confess his feelings, but the idea-oriented Chu Mingcheng ended up only getting out of bed with heavy bags under his eyes, which took a transformation of life to dissipate.

As for the number of life transformations currently available, he had already found out last night.

[Scavenger (invasive species)]

[Ecological Destruction Index: 5-star]

[Eliminate Scavenger: 571 counts]

[Tracking: 1/day]

[Unlock Special Equipment: Net]

[Attract Fish: 1/day]

[Life Transformation: 11 times (21/50)]

Chu Mingcheng had not expected to eliminate over five hundred Scavengers, which was genuinely horrifying in terms of their proliferation.

However, he had gained eleven life transformations, and with the one leftover, he currently had twelve uses available.

He had never been so well-off before!

Twelve life transformations, perhaps… Chu Mingcheng suddenly had an inhuman plan!

The income during this period had relieved the pressure of repaying his parents’ money.

But when Jiang Luoluo, the small rich woman, suddenly forked out millions to support him, it touched him deeply and, at the same time, put him under even more pressure than before.

Being a gold digger was of course a joke; if he actually did that, whether she would still be willing to support him “unconditionally” was questionable.

Jiang Luoluo seemed to have been blinded by love, spending millions on a person with whom she hadn’t even confirmed the relationship.

But Chu Mingcheng knew very well that she saw potential in his future and his ambitious drive, which was why she was willing to do it.

Had he still been the office worker from before, they might have had the chance to be friends after an accidental meeting, but upon getting to know him a little, Jiang Luoluo might not have fallen for him.

She had such standards for herself, so she would definitely expect certain things from her future man.

“Ah, life is really tough!” Chu Mingcheng sighed unenthusiastically after washing up.

Today, he didn’t go to Jiang Luoluo’s house for breakfast first but went to the market to buy some groceries before heading to her place.

Jiang Luoluo was momentarily taken aback by the groceries in his hands, but said nothing; instead, she served him today’s breakfast of pumpkin porridge and egg pancakes with sausages.

After eating, Chu Mingcheng took the groceries and began cooking.

Naturally, he was making lunch since he planned to be at sea and wouldn’t return at noon. He wanted to prepare the meal in advance to prevent her from ordering takeout again.

“Ah Cheng, what’s this?”

Jiang Luoluo didn’t guess his intention for a while and looked puzzled.

“I won’t be back for lunch, and I was worried you’d order takeout, so I prepared it in advance for you.”

Chu Mingcheng blanched the chopped ribs he had prepared and then started peeling potatoes.

He was making a rib soup, which he planned to leave in the pressure cooker, guessing it would be just the right temperature when eaten at noon.

“Is that so? Well, thank you!” Jiang Luoluo’s eyes curved into crescents upon hearing it was specially prepared for her.

“Just a thank you? Shouldn’t you give something in return? Maybe like a little something here?” Chu Mingcheng pointed at his own face teasingly and glanced at her rosy, moisturized lips.

Today, she seemed to have applied some lip balm, looking irresistibly shiny.

But Jiang Luoluo crossed her arms, tilted her chin up, and retorted with a haughty air, “Precondition not unlocked; reward cannot be issued!”

“Uh, what precondition?” Chu Mingcheng was taken aback.

Jiang Luoluo didn’t explain but hinted, “Someone sure lives up to being called the Fishing Man. In terms of fishing, you’re really in a league of your own!”

“…” Chu Mingcheng was stunned for a moment before he understood, then couldn’t help but laugh and cry. Was this her way of criticizing him for catching her but not confessing his feelings?

Though he had been pondering over confessing,

he hadn’t thought of making it too grand; he just felt that a meaningful opportunity was needed.

“It looks like I need to prepare well to catch this little fish!”

Jiang Luoluo’s eyes sparkled, and a slight joy appeared on her face.

Seeing Chu Mingcheng turn around, she quickly changed her expression and dismissively said, “Be careful of the hook coming loose and the line breaking, and the fish escaping!”

“Someone spending hundreds of thousands for love surely wouldn’t want to escape!”

“Drop the ‘for love’ nonsense!!!”

The person who couldn’t argue back now became annoyed and resorted to her ultimate move: Cat Fist.

In the end, Chu Mingcheng had to beg for mercy to finish up, mainly because time was pressing, and he still had to go to the sea.

Otherwise, from the enjoyful expression on his face, one could tell he didn’t want to stop.

Don’t get the wrong idea—it wasn’t like he was submissive. But as with playing basketball, it’s normal to have a bit of physical contact in a scuffle!

Having prepared the rib soup for Jiang Luoluo’s lunch, he then washed the rice and put it in the rice cooker, set to start cooking at eleven.
