The sun was just right,
Chen Yuan watched the leisurely sunbathing Run Run Duck, deep in thought: "How can I manage to kidnap it?"
He pondered for a long ti, but he didn’t really understand this Run Run Duck, so he had no plan at the mont.
Just then,
Cola saw his defeated foe, a sly glint flashed in his eyes, and he ran towards Run Run Duck as if by accident.
"Owooo!"
He barked a few tis at Run Run Duck, and when the latter turned to look at him, he imdiately raised his head, his eyes full of amusent.
Yaya, isn’t this my defeated foe?
What a coincidence?
"Quack?"
Run Run Duck stared at Cola for a mont, the light blue eyes first showed a trace of confusion, then suddenly rembered sothing and looked angry.
But as the gentle sunshine spilled all over his body, the warm feeling spread all over, instantly dispersing all negative emotions.
"Quack quack quack～"
Fighting and killing are too troubleso, sunbathing is still the best duck～
Imdiately,
Run Run Duck wiggled his plump rump, turned around, and lay back on the rock in a more comfortable position, allowing all the sunshine to fall on him.
"Owo?"
Seeing that Run Run Duck was ignoring him, Cola got annoyed and barked at Run Run Duck several tis, but the latter still paid no attention.
Cola imdiately wilted, his fluffy tail hung dejectedly behind him.
Chen Yuan couldn’t help but quip: "Just like a retired old cadre."
With things like this, it wasn’t easy to lure the Run Run Duck away.
"Forget it, let’s fish first."
Chen Yuan shook his head, deciding to temporarily ignore this seemingly very laid-back Run Run Duck.
Anyway, Water-type Pet Beasts should be common, and the personality of this Run Run Duck wasn’t suitable for the farm.
The hardworking and reliable Steel-headed Ground Rat personality is more suitable for farm work.
As ti passed,
There were already quite a few small fish in the bucket next to Chen Yuan’s feet, but not a single long-awaited Spirit Fish.
Chen Yuan couldn’t help but doubt life: "Did all my luck get used up on the first ti?"
Fortunately, he had long prepared for a long battle, directly taking out a portable cassette stove from the cart and putting a pot on top.
He occasionally camps outdoors with colleagues and doesn’t lack the necessary equipnt.
Then,
Chen Yuan washed this group of small fish clean with water, handled the scales and gills, marinated them with ginger, garlic, and cooking wine for fifteen minutes to remove the fishy sll.
For many experienced anglers, fried small fish is the best snack to pass the ti and replenish energy.
After marinating, Chen Yuan sprinkled a thin layer of cornstarch on the surface of the small fish, covering their entire bodies.
With this step done, Chen Yuan directly got the oil heated up.
Once the oil temperature was right, he directly put the small fish into the pot one by one, and the sizzling sound of frying was like the sound of pattering rain constantly ringing in his ears.
"Owooo～"
Cola was already waiting expectantly by the side, and when the small fish went into the pot, he kept bouncing around, his wagging tail like a broom constantly brushing against Chen Yuan’s calf.
"Wait patiently." Chen Yuan said with a smile.
He used low heat for frying the whole ti, until the bones of the small fish were crispy and thoroughly cooked, and their bodies turned a golden yellow, then he turned off the stove.
"All done."
Chen Yuan clapped his hands, waited for a mont, then used his unyielding iron hand to scoop out a fried small fish and took a big bite.
The crispness was imdiate in the mouth, and within two to three bites, the small dried fish was eaten up.
Although the flavor wasn’t particularly outstanding, just like a snack, finishing the first one left him wanting a second, he couldn’t stop.
"Owooo!"
Chen Yuan didn’t forget Cola waiting for a long ti, directly feeding it one.
"Owo～"
Cola jumped happily, swallowing it in one go, still unsatisfied, he looked at Chen Yuan eagerly.
"Don’t rush."
Chen Yuan patted Cola’s head, signaling him to be patient, while turning his head to look at Spark.
"Chirp～"
Spark lowered his head to examine the fried small fish carefully, and then shook his head slowly.
"Huh? Don’t like it?" Chen Yuan was taken aback.
"Chirp."
Spark’s deep blue eyes flashed. First, he nodded slightly, then realizing that this answer might make Chen Yuan sad, cautiously glanced at him.
He liked the things Chen Yuan made, but didn’t like fried stuff.
Chen Yuan felt a connection with Spark, understanding what he ant, and warmly smiled: "It’s okay, we all have things we like and dislike."
"Chirp～" Spark sighed in relief.
"Owo～"
Cola was happy and grinning, now he could enjoy this heap of fried small fish all by himself!
Eat eat eat!
I damn well eat eat eat!
One by one, small dried fish were devoured into his mouth, but Cola suddenly noticed a shadow appearing on the ground in front of him, looking up curiously.
Run Run Duck was staring intently at the fried small fish in the pot, his eyes shining with unprecedented brightness, drool trickling from the corner of his mouth.
"Owo..."
Cola glared warily, stepping forward to protect the fried small fish behind him.
He knew Run Run Duck’s reaction well; this was the instinctive behavior of soone who can’t resist taking two steps when seeing delicious food.
He often exhibited this behavior.
These are mine! Get away!
Cola’s eyes glowed fiercely, issuing a low growl at Run Run Duck.
Chen Yuan noticed this uninvited little buddy as well, his heart stirred, and he smiled: "Cola, good things should be shared with friends."
"Owo?"
Cola turned to look at Chen Yuan, full of surprise.
Owooo!
This guy is not my friend!
"Quack quack quack!"
But Run Run Duck, hearing this, nodded rapidly, his fluffy hairstyle swaying with the motion.
He fixed his hairstyle, grinning at the nearby Cola: "Quack quack quack."
We’re friends, duck～
In the next mont, Run Run Duck placed a hand on Cola’s shoulder, his smile warm and eyes sincere: "Quack quack."
Isn’t sharing delicious food with friends the right thing to do?
"Owo?"
Cola was sowhat bewildered at this point, his mind dizzy, instinctively making way for Run Run Duck to step up to the pot.
"Quack quack quack～"
Run Run Duck picked up the small dried fish and tossed it into his mouth, visibly excited, his slightly widened eyes showcasing his current thrill, as his cotton-like tail gently swayed.
So delicious, duck!
I’ve finally eaten sothing good, duck!
Then,
He pointed to the fried small fish in the pot, inquiring if he could have another one?
"Owo."
Cola reluctantly responded, but when confronted with those sparkling eyes filled with anticipation, he gritted his teeth and agreed.
"Quack quack～"
Run Run Duck again beca excited, skillfully picked up the small dried fish and swallowed it, the happy feeling spreading throughout his body, closing his eyes in enjoynt.
This is what it ans to savor, duck.
It wasn’t long,
In the midst of "Owooo" and "Quack quack quack" playing warmly, the two little ones put aside past grievances, hugging each other’s shoulders while devouring small dried fish.
Beside them, Chen Yuan couldn’t help but break out in a sweat.
You two, slow down eating!!!
My fishing speed can’t keep up with your eating speed!!!
