There are still 3 days left until they reach Yuanyun Island.
There are 4 days left until they reach Qiyun Port.
This means Fang Yu only has 4 days left.
However, Fang Yu was not in a hurry. He looked at Lu Kun in front of him and couldn't help but let out a slight smile.
This guy, with an extravagant look, had given trouble to both Luu Yuan and Ma in his presence.
So now this guy was very relaxed.
But...
"What is this awful blanket? It's cold and hard! I've never slept on such a bad bed; is this where beggars sleep?"
"I want to go back, I can't stay for a day. Mr. Lu, I want to go back. There's no sunscreen on this broken ship; my skin will get tanned. Even a day is too much!"
When he sent Luu Yuan and Ma away, Lu Kun was very carefree, but now he was completely helpless.
The young lady, referred to as his niece, was having a fit in her room, her spoiled temper completely on display.
Although Lu Kun awkwardly closed the door, Fang Yu, with his enhanced hearing, still accurately caught the woman's complaints.
Alright, alright...
Can't stay for a day, huh?
Fang Yu's eyes lit up. Fortunately, this woman had a spoiled temper. Finally, he had found a way to break the deadlock.
Can't handle you, old fox Lu Kun? But can't handle the spoiled young lady?
The woman was obviously used to living in luxury, with a spoiled, picky attitude.
Quite normal, but such people are... quite easy to manipulate!
Thinking of this, Fang Yu called Du Ran and whispered, "Haven't we caught a lot of fish these few days? Let's not waste them. Process them and serve them to these two to eat."
After thinking for a moment, Fang Yu grabbed Du Ran and instructed, "Remember, do not give them any of our stored food. Be sure to let them eat fish, every day!"
Du Ran scratched his head, not quite understanding, but since it was the captain's order, he just went along with it.
Watching Du Ran's figure leave, and hearing the young lady's complaints from the adjacent room, Fang Yu couldn't help but smile.
...
2 days until Yuanyun Island.
3 days until Qiyun Port.
Yesterday, Lu Kun and the young lady's meal was fish, various kinds of fish.
And today, when Du Ran once again placed fish on Lu Kun's dining table, Lu Kun didn't think much of it.
The past two days, he found this ship very strange, with the crew doing nothing all day but fishing on the deck, yet they really managed to catch fish.
It was really peculiar.
But Lu Kun only regarded this as Fang Yu's Extraordinary Ability as the captain.
Uh...
Extraordinary Ability is fishing...
Alright, a truly practical and creative Extraordinary Ability.
Since they caught fish, it wasn't surprising that Lu Kun and his "niece" were given fish to eat.
After all, the stored food on sea vessels is limited. Originally, this ship should only have prepared food for four people, but now with him and the "niece," there's not enough food, so they have to eat the freshly caught fish.
This is understandable.
For those living in the Ocean World, fish is the primary source of protein.
In this world, more than 60% of meats are fish and seafood, which is quite normal.
Eating fish for two consecutive days, Lu Kun didn't find it peculiar.
But...
The "niece" seemed to have some complaints.
"Why is the fish boiled? Can't it be fried in oil? Do people on this sea ship even know how to cook?"
The "niece" was dissatisfied, flipping the fish with a fork and having little appetite.
In Qiyun Port, the cooks preparing her meals were all top chefs, who could make even ordinary fish taste uniquely delicious.
But the crew on this sea ship...
Their cooking skills are... average.
Neither good nor bad, but compared to what this little princess usually eats, it falls short by several levels.
But what can be done?
This little princess has a luxurious life, yet she listened to the coaxing of the servants and sneaked out, calling it "adventure."
What adventure are you talking about!
Is this what you call adventure? This is called torture!
Lu Kun complained inwardly but still tried to appease the "niece" in front of him.
"Miss, the captain saving us is already a great favor. Our sea ship has encountered trouble, so we can only endure for a couple of days. We will soon return to Qiyun Port."
Lu Kun said quietly.
The young woman glanced at Lu Kun, pouted, and looked out the window.
Only to see Fang Yu lying leisurely on the deck, holding a plump, golden chicken leg, munching it with relish.
His mouth greasy with oil.
...
She glanced at Fang Yu's chicken leg, swallowed hard, and suddenly found the white fish on her plate in front of her unappetizing...
"I want to eat chicken leg..."
The woman muttered softly, looking enviously at Fang Yu.
...
1 day until Yuanyun Island.
2 days until Qiyun Port.
Both of their meals still consist of fish...
Fish... Fish...
Still that damn fish!
Now even Lu Kun would subconsciously frown a little when he saw fish, finding it hard to swallow.
Eating it for several days, even Lu Kun grew tired of it.
But he was, after all, a mature and wise businessman, understanding how to control his emotions, showing nothing outwardly, still chatting and joking with Fang Yu every day as usual, leaving no gaps.
But...
The "niece" had an outburst again.
After several days of sleeping on a cold and hard bed, eating unappetizing fish.
She cried harshly... cursed fiercely...
Lu Kun was very embarrassed...
But there was nothing to be done, he couldn't scold this little princess himself, and he could only try everything to appease the "niece."
At the same time, a faint sense of vigilance arose in Lu Kun's heart.
Based on his many years in the business world, he keenly perceived a certain deliberate atmosphere, making him wary.
Wait... the depthless captain seems to haven't given up probing the lady's identity and is proceeding in a more subtle manner.
What does he intend to do?
Lu Kun's heart, no longer dared to underestimate Fang Yu.
Don't be fooled by this young captain, lazily basking in the sun on the deck every day, doing nothing, and looking harmless.
But his mind was keen!
At this moment, Lu Kun only felt like he was facing a cunning hunter, who was gradually relaxing his prey, slowly tightening its movement space, and ultimately delivering a fatal blow.
Lu Kun no longer had the initial carefree feeling and began to act more cautiously in front of Fang Yu.
...
That day.
The food was still the awful fish.
The little princess's emotions were even more unstable, and her yearning to return home was increasingly strong, even starting to urge Lu Kun to request chicken legs and other food from the captain.
Lu Kun sighed, though helpless in his heart, his attention was not on the little princess but carefully watching Fang Yu.
Today was the day the ship was sailing to Yuanyun Island.
Whatever calculations this captain has, it's likely to be revealed today.
Lu Kun was on guard, his body taut.
At that moment, the crew fishing on the deck suddenly cried out:
"Ahead is Yuanyun Island!"
