Reborn in 1994, escaping from marriage and going sea fishing, I won!

Chapter 1175 Expensive Gift

Liu Meilan had never been looked down upon like this when it came to fishing, and she immediately felt rebellious. "Uncle, today you don't need to give way to me. I'll show you what a true master is, the undefeated one!"

Wu Fengdeng laughed heartily, "Alright, let's begin!"

Liu Meilan smiled and said, "I'll catch a big yellow croaker on my very first try!"

Wu Fengdeng squinted slightly, "I can catch fish, I'm sure, but I can't guarantee that the fish I catch will definitely be big yellow croaker!"

Liu Meilan smiled smugly: "I can guarantee it! Let's begin!"

Liu Meilan cast the bait into the sea, and the fishing line sank gradually with it. Not far below the bait, many fish swam around, and they were large, golden yellow croakers.

Less than three minutes later, the large yellow croaker began to bite. After a short wait, Liu Meilan began to reel in the fish!

Holding the landing net, Wu Yuning waited until the fish was about to surface before quickly scooping it up from the water. "Cousin, it's yellow, is it a large yellow croaker?"

As the fish was brought out of the water, Liu Meilan smiled and said, "Yes! Uncle, how was it?"

Wu Fengdeng's eyes widened in surprise: "Amazing! You can catch whatever fish you want! I may not be as good as you, but my fish have come too!"

After a series of maneuvers by Wu Fengdeng, the fish gradually surfaced. Wu Yuze then used another landing net to scoop the fish up!

Wu Yuze asked in surprise, "Dad, this fish of yours is black, it should be a grouper!"

Wu Fengdeng glanced at it and said, "Sure enough! This fish tastes pretty good too! As for the price... I don't know about it here!"

Liu Meilan smiled and said, "When we get back, we'll have the person in charge of grocery shopping at home calculate the price based on the market's quotes!"

“Okay, that’s fair!” Wu Fengdeng nodded.

But no sooner had he finished speaking than Liu Meilan caught another one, a large yellow croaker.

Wu Fengdeng looked puzzled. "We're not far apart, so why can you catch big yellow croakers one after another, but I can't? They're golden and look quite festive! My father actually loves to eat big yellow croakers, and he airfreights some over every year."

Liu Meilan smiled and said, "That's the secret! Uncle, please continue."

The other people were fishing, but when they saw the contest between Liu Meilan and Wu Fengdeng, they were immediately drawn to it.

After fishing for about two hours, Liu Meilan's fish box was full of all kinds of good fish, including eels.

Although Wu Fengdeng also caught quite a lot, he didn't catch as many as Liu Meilan, and the value of his fish wasn't as high as Liu Meilan's.

Seeing this situation, Wu Fengdeng conceded defeat, "No wonder he's called Captain Meilan! So amazing!"

Liu Meilan cupped her hands and smiled, "You flatter me! For lunch today, we'll have braised yellow croaker, steamed yellow croaker, and yellow croaker with pickled cabbage..."

Wu Yuning's eyes were now sparkling as she looked at Liu Meilan. This cousin Meilan was so interesting! She had completely overturned her previous impressions of Chinese women!

“Cousin Meilan, I used to read in the media that women in China were oppressed! But now I think that’s not the case!”

Liu Meilan nodded. "The reports from outside are indeed biased. We believe that women can hold up half the sky. Our feminism is not just talk; it's about putting our beliefs into practice!"

Wu Fengdeng and Wu Fengnian had a better impression of Liu Meilan and liked her more.

He's always laughing and joking, full of energy and boundless vitality.

She excels in every role she plays in society.

They returned home with a full catch, everyone beaming with joy. The children all ran over to look at the fish in the tank!

At this moment, the four elderly people also smiled and announced on the spot that Liu Meilan had won.

After that, they kept their eyes on the fish in the fish tank, wondering what to eat for lunch.

The family gradually got to know each other and integrated through eating, drinking, and having fun.

Professor Xie had other matters to attend to and went home early. Liu Yiwen will be going home tonight to handle some things.

Aunt Xie and Uncle Xie also need to rush back to the inland province to continue making their beef jerky; they can't stay here for long.

In the end, only Liu Meilan and Xie Tianyi remained. As for Xie Tianli, she still had to go back to handle some trivial matters and help sell Xie Tianyi's company.

Wu Fengdeng stayed in China to arrange investment and factory establishment, while his son returned to the United States to take charge. Wu Fengnian, on the other hand, returned to China with his wife, leaving his daughter behind without hesitation.

As for his son, Wu Yuze, he still needs to complete some procedures. After the summer vacation, he can come here as an exchange student and attend university for two years.

Liu Meilan stayed here with her child, continuing to keep her maternal grandparents company and the relatives who remained.

The hospitality during this period was made so smooth thanks to Qin Zheng's tireless efforts.

Qin Zheng also gained more friendships, and there will be more investment projects in the future.

After he finished his work, he remembered to send an email to someone to have the clothes he bought for Cao Yuanyuan delivered, and also to inform Cao Yuanyuan.

When Cao Yuanyuan saw the four outfits—two business skirt suits, two business trouser suits, shoes, scarves, bags…and pearl necklaces, earrings, and pendants…

Seeing so much stuff, Cao Yuanyuan was at a loss and wanted to call immediately to ask what was going on. But looking at the time, it was already late at night, so she chose to send a message on QQ instead.

"Qin Zheng, why did you buy me so many things? You already gave me a gift when you came, and now you're giving me so many more!"

Qin Zheng is still awake. He's looking at some documents when he hears a beeping sound. He clicks on it, then smiles.

"Just accept what I'm giving you! You helped Liu Jia find her family, and that's a favor you've done for me! Now I can use that favor to get a really big project and make even more money! Shouldn't I give you a little something in return?"

Cao Yuanyuan was both amused and exasperated upon hearing this. "It was just a matter of a word for me. It really didn't help at all! You should return all of these things!"

"For you, it's just a matter of a word, but for the Liu family, it's a reunion after half a century of separation, which is extremely rare." Qin Zheng replied, "This favor has fallen on my shoulders, and I've benefited. Please don't be shy with me. These clothes can only be exchanged, not returned! Now that you're an intern, you should dress better! I know that no matter where you are, clothes make the man, otherwise you'll be looked down upon! Especially in the financial industry where you work, people are often prejudiced! If you wear ordinary clothes, you'll be looked down upon!"

Cao Yuanyuan understood Qin Zheng's words; they made sense. The clothes were all designer brands, made of high-quality materials, and the tailoring and workmanship were excellent.

Wearing these clothes does indeed make her look more glamorous, and it can also make those who look down on her at the company behave themselves.

"Since you can't return it, I'll take it! But I've written down the price, and I'll pay you back when I make some money!"

Cao Yuanyuan didn't want to owe anyone anything, after all, Qin Zheng was her classmate and had already given her a gift; she couldn't be greedy.
