As for Liao Xuexue hugging him, Ye Chen knew very well that Liao Xuexue had done it out of reflex.

Liao Xuexue’s face was as red as a ripe apple. At the same time, there were still tears at the corner of her eyes from the shock just now. She looked so delicate and lovely.

Even so, Ye Chen did not have any thoughts about getting together with Liao Xuexue.

For all the male fishing pros in the world, the biggest obstacle they encountered on the road of fishing was their wives at home. In the worst case, a male fishing pro would be threatened by his wife to have his fishing rod or fishing gear broken, or forced to choose between her and fishing.

Many male fishing pros couldn’t withstand the pressure and eventually gave up fishing.

As a man whose goal was to become the King of Fishing, Ye Chen would naturally not dig a hole for himself.

However, Liao Xuexue did smell nice.

Moreover, it was not the smell of cheap perfume.

If Liao Xuexue assisted him in fishing every day, Ye Chen could accept it.

After all, who would reject a sweet-looking and tender girl?

The only disadvantage was that he would become a family with Mr. Liao and obliged to address him as “Grandpa”.

At that thought, Ye Chen turned to look at Mr. Liao and couldn’t help but shiver.

Meanwhile, Mr. Liao was standing in the same place angrily, staring at Ye Chen with an unfriendly expression. The veins on his neck were about to pop out, and his eyes were as wide as saucers.

Mr. Liao had a strong urge to rip Ye Chen into pieces.

To make things worse, the fishing pros by the river bank of Jiang City were chattering about Ye Chen and Liao Xuexue.

Knowing about the bet between Ye Chen and Mr. Liao, they really hoped that Ye Chen could win over Mr. Liao’s granddaughter.

Aside from taking Mr. Liao down from his high horse, they would probably get to enjoy a free banquet meal if that happened.

In an instant, from mocking Ye Chen, everyone began mocking Mr. Liao.

Mr. Liao’s granddaughter was standing there, holding the corners of her clothes helplessly.

In Mr. Liao’s eyes, that was the shy look of an obedient wife.

Mr. Liao was so angry that his face turned purple. “F*ck!”

At the same time, the live stream room was very lively.

“As expected of Mr. Liao’s granddaughter. This situation is exactly the same as what Mr. Liao went through last night!”

“Hahaha, the commentor above, I was in the live stream room yesterday too. I almost laughed to death watching it. The only difference is that Mr. Liao was so scared yesterday that he fell into the water, while Mr. Liao’s granddaughter was so scared that she rushed into Mr. Ye’s arms!”

“Mr. Ye, awesome!”

“This is killing two birds with one stone! Not only did he catch a water snake, but he also caught a young lady!”

“Oh! So this girl is the granddaughter of the Mr. Liao in the video!”

“Mr. Ye is indeed amazing. Although he still didn’t catch any fish, he can be considered a winner. Hahaha!”

“Mr. Ye had such an innocent expression on his face, and he actually raised his hands. How adorable!”

“This young lady is really beautiful, and her skin is so fair. She’s a perfect match with the bronze-skinned Mr. Ye!”

…

Obviously, the people who were sending the comments in the comments section were those who had watched the entire live stream last night or those who had watched the entire recording.

As for the bystanders who didn’t know what happened the previous day, they were all dumbfounded.

They had thought that Liao Xuexue was Ye Chen’s girlfriend.

From the scene just now, they had thought that the girl had caught a snake and was frightened, and the young couple was showing off their affection.

Therefore, the focus of this group of people was still on the snake.

“My god, he actually caught a water snake?”

“This water snake looks quite big. I think it’s at least 12 kilograms.”

“It’s really terrifying. This streamer can really catch anything except fish!”

“Not to mention girls, even men would be scared by the snake!”

“Hahaha, I’m dying of laughter. I thought this streamer’s already displayed the full extent of his fishing skills, but he actually caught a water snake?”

“This… Is this still considered getting skunked? At least the streamer caught something, even though it’s a snake.”

…

The topic had been diverted by the viewers who didn’t know the truth about Ye Chen and Liao Xuexue’s relationship.

The viewers believed that other than fish, there was nothing Ye Chen could not catch; as soon as Ye Chen cast his rod, he got a bite, though it wasn’t a fish.

Of course, Ye Chen had the same thoughts as his old fans.

It was purely an accident that he had hugged Liao Xuexue and touched her hand.

In fact, as a fishing pro, all Ye Chen thought about was fishing. Therefore, Ye Chen was rather frustrated at the moment.

What made him even more speechless was that even though the system had not been upgraded, he had unlocked new achievements.

“Snake Fisher: acquire the ability to fish for water snakes; increases the chance of catching water snakes.”

If the system materialized in front of him, Ye Chen would definitely beat it up without a second thought.

Nevertheless, it was not like the system was completely useless.

Ye Chen felt that he got a bite so quickly thanks to the system, though it was a snake that got hooked. After all, it was proof that the skill “Never Get Skunked” was working.

In fact, Ye Chen felt that the reason he was able to enjoy Liao Xuexue’s embrace was probably due to the system skill “Evil Warder”.

However, Ye Chen was bitter about the new skill “Snake Fisher”. The skill was too useless; it was not even as good as the Corpse Harvest skill.

After all, there was at least a chance of getting some reward for fishing up a corpse.

However, snakes were different.

Ordinary water snakes were not valuable at all, and some of the more precious snakes were protected animals. If one was not careful, one could get themselves into the police station for catching protected snakes.

Ye Chen knew that he could not rely too much on external help like the system when it came to fishing.

Nevertheless, the system was slowly progressing.

Fishing up a corpse granted Ye Chen the Corpse Harvest skill, and fishing up a water snake granted Ye Chen the Snake FIsher skill.

At this rate, if Ye Chen caught a live fish later, wouldn’t he be able to become the King of Fishing?
