Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

As soon as Xie WenAn boarded the ship, he was overcome by seasickness and couldn’t even stand up, let alone cast a net. He was lying on the deck dry heaving over the side of the boat, while Wang Hanshao held a bottle of mineral water to care for Xie WenAn.

Xi Shuang was like a fish in water, standing at the bow of the ship, with an excited expression as he looked out at the sea. However, when he turned his head and saw Su Jinjiang next to him, holding onto his clothes with a panicked expression, he couldn’t help but darken his face.

Su Jinjiang seemed genuinely thick-skinned when it came to shamelessness. No matter how coldly Xi Shuang treated him, Su Jinjiang would greet him with a smile, appearing submissive and compliant, which was really teeth-gnashing.

Wenren Shuangshuang didn’t understand what Su Jinjiang was thinking, especially since this was all being filmed in front of the camera.

Aside from the fact that they were live streaming, this was going to be shown to a nationwide audience afterward. If she behaved like this in front of everyone, wouldn’t it just make the audience think less of her?

Xi Shuang’s father is wealthy, ranking among the nation’s top billionaires, but so what? If someone likes you and wants to spend money on you, it only matters if they have feelings for you.

But Xi Shuang had clearly shown he didn’t like Su Jinjiang, so he naturally wouldn’t spend money on him. Watching Su Jinjiang act like this just made Wenren Shuangshuang think less of him. If you belittle yourself, no one else will respect you.

Everyone has their own aspirations, and Wenren Shuangshuang didn’t plan to be annoying and persuade Su Jinjiang. She was now standing at the bow, contemplating whether there might be any fish beneath the dark blue sea.

Su Jie was swaying as she stood at the bow, peering over the side, just as a big wave struck, causing the boat to dip dramatically and almost making Su Jie fall.

Luckily, Wenren Shuangshuang was standing right next to her and reached out in time to steady Su Jie, preventing her from falling.

But who could have guessed that Su Jie was particularly brave at this moment? Just as she let out a scream from almost slipping, she quickly regained composure once Wenren Shuangshuang helped her.

Instead of being scared off by the previous scare, she laughed loudly and said to Wenren Shuangshuang, ”I’ve never been on the sea like this before; it feels so interesting. Let’s cast a net, and see if we can catch a big fish.”

Su Jie’s eyes were filled with eager excitement, although she was constantly off-kilter with the boat’s movement, needing Wenren Shuangshuang’s support to stand steadily. Yet, her determination to cast a net to catch fish remained unshaken.

Wenren Shuangshuang was momentarily intrigued by Su Jie’s eagerness. Since she had painstakingly made the net, not casting it a few times would mean weaving it for nothing.

”Why not? The water here is so clear, pollution must be minimal. The fish inside must be delicious. If we manage to net a few big ones, whether we stew, braise, or grill them, they should taste great.”

Su Jie was drooling over what Wenren Shuangshuang said, and remembering Wenren Shuangshuang’s impressive culinary skills, she immediately got excited and said, ”Then what are we waiting for, let’s cast the net!”

Wenren Shuangshuang and Su Jie just got into position, preparing to mimic the fishermen they had previously seen casting nets, when they heard two screams coming from behind.

The sound was sharp and brief, accompanied by the noise of something heavy falling into the water, suddenly startling Su Jie, nearly dragging Wenren Shuangshuang into the sea with her.

After steadying themselves, the two hurriedly turned around and saw that where Xi Shuang and Su Jinjiang had been standing, there was now no one, and two people were bobbing up and down in the sea, shouting for help.

Wenren Shuangshuang’s heart skipped a beat, and she immediately jumped into the water to rescue them. Fortunately, the two had just fallen in, their sanity still intact, and seeing someone coming to save them, they didn’t grab hold and refuse to let go.

Nearby was a lifeguard, and as Wenren Shuangshuang jumped in, the lifeguard who noticed something was wrong jumped in as well.

Soon, with the combined efforts of several people, Xi Shuang and Su Jinjiang were successfully rescued from the ocean within minutes without further danger.

However, the sudden fall into the water meant they couldn’t avoid swallowing some seawater, and once back on the boat, they coughed and vomited for quite a while.

Because of the two who fell in and one who couldn’t stand due to seasickness, Zhang Huijuan arranged for Xie WenAn, Su Jinjiang, and Xi Shuang to be sent back to the fishing village to rest.

Wenren Shuangshuang, Su Jie, and Wang Hanshao didn’t want to leave, so the three stayed on the boat to continue learning how to cast nets, first using their handmade small net. Unfortunately, the quality of the net wasn’t good enough, so nothing was caught.

The fisherman driving the boat laughed nearby and handed over a large net he had woven himself, demonstrating to Wenren Shuangshuang and the others how to cast it. The net cast by the fisherman was exceptionally graceful.

The net flew from the fisherman’s hand, blooming like a flower, spreading out completely in an instant before falling into the water. When it was pulled back up, seven or eight sea fish were bouncing around inside.

The fisherman smiled deeper and said to Wenren Shuangshuang and the others, ”This catch is alright; the fish are fairly big. Take them back to make soup or braise them; either would be good.”

Seeing the fisherman’s swift net casting and the beautiful drop of the net, Wenren Shuangshuang, Su Jie, and Wang Hanshao were all eager to try.

Su Jie stepped forward: ”Teach me how to use this large net to cast, big brother. You were really cool just now.”

The fisherman blushed at Su Jie’s praise: ”It’s nothing. If you want to learn, I’ll teach you. Casting nets is easy once you grasp the technique.”

Next, Su Jie, Wenren Shuangshuang, and Wang Hanshao followed along to learn net casting, their laughter filling the air as time flew by. By the time they set off to return, all three had learned to cast nets decently.

Among them, Wenren Shuangshuang learned the best; she cast a net as well as the fisherman did on her first try, and luckily managed to net herself a huge lobster and several small fish.

The fish were released by Wenren Shuangshuang, mainly because they were too small. She was excitedly holding onto the lobster, determined to showcase her skills with such a big catch.

Upon returning, everyone gathered around Wenren Shuangshuang’s lobster, marveling at her luck. Catching such a big lobster was indeed fortunate.

Before preparing the lobster, Wenren Shuangshuang ensured it was drained of urine first, to enhance the taste of the lobster dish. She made lobster two ways: cheese cream baked lobster and lobster roe fried rice.

Though the lobster was large, split among six people, it only amounted to a bite each. Zhang Huijuan watched Wenren Shuangshuang’s culinary skills, swallowing her saliva.

Wenren Shuangshuang shared a portion with Zhang Huijuan, but the single bite wasn’t satisfying, leaving her craving even more.

Wenren Shuangshuang laughed and said that if they could catch several more lobsters during the filming tomorrow, she’d make lobster eighteen ways to let everyone savor her cooking skills.

Without hesitation, Zhang Huijuan generously waved her hand, deciding not to bother with catching them. Given their proximity to the seaside, where seafood is plentiful, she directly bought a heap of lobsters, sea prawns, and shrimp.

True to her word, Wenren Shuangshuang devoted a whole day, asking everyone to help process the shrimp, while she personally prepared and certainly ended up making lobster eighteen ways.

She went on to make oil-braised prawns, butterfly shrimp, golden shrimp balls, shrimp paste, shrimp cakes, drunken shrimp, and various shrimp delicacies, inviting the whole crew to a shrimp feast.
