Xie Yulu pointed the camera at the courtyard and walked around. “This is where I’m going to stay for the next few days. How is it? Is it pretty?”

At this moment, there were already hundreds of people watching the live broadcast. The number of comments was not bad.

​ 

[Little Streamer, is this a lodgings? It’s so big. It can’t be cheap, right? ]

Xie Yulu looked at the screen and shook her head. “I’m staying at a friend’s house for the time being. I just need to pay for the room. It shouldn’t be too expensive.”

[You need to spend money to stay at a friend’s house? Little Streamer, you’re doing really well.]

[My friend asked me to ask, is your friend pretty?]

Xie Yulu was speechless. “He’s a boy… why are you guys always interested in my friend?!”

[You know you can’t get the streamer… Wait, what did you just say? A boy?]

Instantly, the comments exploded.

[Living in a boy’s house?]

[Could it be?]

[Could it be?]

“Stop it!” Xie Yulu blushed and said, “I’m just a normal friend with him.”

[Just a normal friend, why are you blushing!]

[We understand, he’s a normal boyfriend.]

[I want to know where I lost!]

[Brothers, draw your swords, I have already prepared the plane ticket!]

At this moment, Qi Hang walked out with a bucket in his hand.

Just then, the camera was aimed at this side. Qi Hang’s handsome and sunny face, as well as his strong but not boorish figure, was instantly reflected in the eyes of everyone in the live stream room.

The screen interaction came to an abrupt end as if everyone had forgotten to type.

He slowly walked over and stood in front of Xie Yulu.

“I’m going out for a while. I’ll be back later. I’m going beachcombing when the tide goes out later. Are you going?”

“Of course I’m going, but I don’t know how to comb the beach. You have to teach me.”

Xie Yulu looked at him with a smile and suddenly tilted her head as if she was admiring him from another angle. There were no blind spots.

Qi Hang nodded and left.

“Yulu!” Zhang Zitong leaned out from a window on the second floor and waved at her. “Come up and take a look. There are fruits and vegetables growing in the backyard here, and the beach is right down there!”

Xie Yulu’s eyes lit up and he quickly went up to the second floor.

As Zhang Zitong had said, there were all kinds of fruits and vegetables growing in the backyard. The colorful colors were connected together, and there seemed to be a cliff behind it. However, it was not very high, and the beach was right below it.

At that moment, Qi Hang’s figure appeared there. He was constantly pouring the water from the bucket onto the beach. No one knew what effect it had.

Xie Yulu’s gaze wandered between Qi Hang and the sea from time to time, and she even forgot to look at the screen.

Zhang Zitong held her chin and leaned against the window. The sea breeze blew over, and she felt relaxed and happy.

“Why do I feel that your Prince Charming’s living condition is not bad? His life seems to be much better than that of a well-off person.”

“Hey, I’m live streaming!” Xie Yulu glared at her. How could she say something like that? There were so many people watching. She did not want to lose face.

“Oh my, oh my, I forgot…” Zhang Zitong stuck out her tongue cutely. “He’s not yours yet.”

“…”

Xie Yulu had a headache. There was really nothing she could do when she had such a close friend.

Looking at the screen again, it was already filled with wails.

[I was wrong. The goddess seems to have unrequited love. This is really a common friend.]

[I still don’t know where I lost, but I’m sure that I can’t win anymore.]

[Sob, sob, sob! So the goddess also has a male god, and it’s the kind that can’t be pursued!]

Xie Yulu did not know how to explain it.

Qi Hang made four or five trips back and forth. By the time he had filled more than half of the beach with the fish lure liquid that he had concocted, several hours had already passed.

Looking at the time, it was past five in the afternoon. It was almost time for the ebbing tide to reach its lowest point.

It was a little late.

The other sea-faring people on the island would go to pick up the goods earlier before the seawater had completely receded. At this time, they could basically only pick up the leftovers of others.

However, with the two girls, they did not expect to get anything good. What they needed was to enjoy the experience.

It was important to participate, it was important to participate…

Moreover, things like going to the sea depended on the weather. Leaving aside the detailed search, luck was even more important.

Qi Hang returned home and prepared some things to put in the trunk of the pickup truck. Then, he went up to the second floor and knocked on the door.

The one who opened the door was Zhang Zitong.

“We can go catch the sea now. Shall we go?”

Zhang Zitong immediately turned around and looked at Xie Yulu.

“Coming, coming, coming!”

She grabbed the live broadcast equipment with one hand and ran over in small steps. She covered her chest with the other hand to prevent her body from losing balance due to her large movements. “Where are we going to catch the sea?”

“To the east coast. Get in the car.” Qi Hang smiled slightly. “What you can eat tonight will depend on your luck.”

“Okay!”

The two girls were very excited. Although it was not their first time coming to the beach, the thought of being able to find and capture the ingredients for their dinner with their own hands made them excited.

Soon, they arrived at the beach. There were already many people looking here.

Qi Hang parked the car first. Then, he took the plastic bucket in the trunk of the car and led the girls to a place with fewer people.

“Let’s look around here.”

He took a look at the sand surface. There should be some goods here.

He took out the shovel and the bottle filled with fine salt from the bucket.

“I’ll do it once first. You girls watch and learn.”

“There are many small holes like this similar on the beach. You can dig a few more times. If the hole becomes bigger, squeeze the salt into the hole. Then, the bamboo razor clams hidden inside will come out by themselves.”

As he spoke, Qi Hang demonstrated once. He first spat out two mouthfuls of water, and then a slender, milky-white object emerged. However, he did not reach out to grab it.

Almost in the blink of an eye, the bamboo razor clam went back in.

“Here, they move very quickly, so you have to seize the opportunity and take it down the moment it pops out.”

Qi Hang smiled and said, “Just like whack-a-mole when we were young. It’s just that we changed from smashing to catching.”

“I understand, I understand!”

Zhang Zitong immediately raised her small hand, eager to try.

Qi Hang then handed the shovel and salt bottle to her.

Zhang Zitong also found a small hole and dug it up in a decent manner. However, she did not notice that the hole did not become bigger, so she poured salt into it.

After waiting for a long time, there was still no movement.

Zhang Zitong was confused. “What’s going on? Did I find the wrong place?”

“Didn’t Qi Hang say that he would only pour salt into the hole when it became bigger?” Xie Yulu complained mercilessly.

Zhang Zitong suddenly understood, so she found another hole. After digging and confirming that the hole had become bigger, she sprinkled salt again.

Some seawater was spat out from the hole. Zhang Zitong was fully focused and reached out her hand the moment the razor clam appeared. However, she forgot that she was still holding the shovel in her hand. In the end, the shovel was blocked by the hole that was dug, and she missed the opportunity.

Xie Yulu closed her eyes and held her forehead. This idiot…

However, although Zhang Zitong made a series of mistakes, there were still some benefits.

At least the program’s effect was not bad. The audience in the live broadcast room was amused.

“I will definitely succeed next time!” Zhang Zitong clenched her fist and said.

“Don’t!” Xie Yulu did not want to see the best friend emoji package produced by her fans the next day. She quickly stopped her. “Let me do it. Help me hold the equipment.”

“I won’t! I must catch this razor clam!”

“Okay, then you continue…”

Thus, she went to the thatched cottage three times, but her hand speed slowed down and she failed again.

“Give up…” Xie Yulu advised.

“I can definitely do it this time!”

Zhang Zitong persevered.

“I’ll go look elsewhere.”

Qi Hang could not help but laugh and shake his head. He started to search nearby.
