I Go to the High Seas for Fishing But Get Hunted by an Aircraft Carrier-Chapter 343: Falling in Love

Ye Chen nodded, then fell silent. After a while, he gently held Liao Xuexue’s hand and softly said, "Xuexue, don’t be afraid, leave this scum to me to deal with."

Upon hearing this, Liao Xuexue’s beautiful eyes misted with tears. She looked at Ye Chen’s broad and sturdy chest and gently leaned against his shoulder.

"Thank you, Brother Ye Chen," Liao Xuexue gratefully said.

She had thought that she would have to face a fate of being humiliated or even sold, but she didn’t expect Ye Chen to stand up and help her.

This feeling made her heart flutter.

Liao Xuexue felt the warmth and firmness of Ye Chen’s shoulder, and her heart was filled with a sense of security and peace.

Perhaps, in this world, apart from her father, only Ye Chen could make her feel this way.

"By the way, Brother Ye Chen, I am going back to school to report tomorrow," Liao Xuexue slowly let go of Ye Chen, lowered her head and said softly.

Ye Chen slightly nodded, "Have a safe journey, and if you encounter any difficulties, feel free to come to me."

"Yes!" Liao Xuexue nodded vigorously, then looked at Ye Chen and asked, "Brother Ye Chen, are you sure you don’t want to consider being my boyfriend?"

Liao Xuexue asked with all her courage.

Having never been in love, she was very defensive towards suitors. She wasn’t sure if she liked Ye Chen, but she knew he was outstanding and willing to help her voluntarily, which gave her a vague feeling.

Hearing Liao Xuexue’s query, Ye Chen burst into a bitter laugh and said, "You’ve got it wrong. I just think you’re a kind person, so I wanted to help."

Liao Xuexue pouted and snorted, muttering, "Cut it out, hypocritical man."

"Eh, what did you say?" Ye Chen asked.

"Oh, nothing... nothing!" Liao Xuexue said with a flushed face.

Ye Chen didn’t say much else.

They soon arrived near Liao Xuexue’s home.

"Brother Ye Chen, I’m going back now,"

Ye Chen nodded and said, "Alright, hurry back."

After watching Liao Xuexue go home, Ye Chen also went back.

The next morning, as soon as Ye Chen woke up, someone came looking for him.

"Little Ye, I found a great fishing spot yesterday, do you want to go?" Old Liu excitedly approached Ye Chen.

Ye Chen was instantly interested. Since it had been a long time since his last live stream, he decided to seize this chance to go live fishing, and it was a good choice.

Thus, Ye Chen got ready with his fishing gear and followed Old Liu in the car to a riverside.

This river is called Baima River, and not many people fish there.

Ye Chen and Old Liu picked a nice spot, and then Ye Chen started the live stream.

By this time, the live stream room already had quite a number of people, and the number kept rising.

"Wow! God Ye is live streaming, I wonder what he will catch today?"

"God Ye God Ye I love you!"

...

Soon, Ye Chen’s fans started flooding the chat.

Ye Chen glanced at the barrage and smiled as he replied, "Hello, everyone, today I’ve decided to live stream a fish-eating session!"

"Damn, is God Ye turning into a gourmet streamer now? 666666"

"I love it, I just want to know what delicious food Ye Chen will make!"

"Ye Chen is awesome, even as a streamer he doesn’t forget to learn cooking skills!"

The barrage of comments quickly flies past, while Ye Chen opens the camera on his phone and points it at the various small fishes swimming in the water.

Ye Chen picks up the fishing rod and forcefully casts the line into the water, waiting for about a minute, when suddenly his eyes light up.

The fishing rod is suddenly yanked, Ye Chen cracks a smile, and with a sudden strong pull, snags a lively crucian carp out of the water and casually places it into a bucket.

"Ye God, you’re truly amazing!"

"Ha-ha, actually caught a fish, I’m going to buy ten jin of fish!"

Ye Chen continues to keep the camera on, allowing the viewers to clearly see everything.

Afterward, Ye Chen would catch two or three fish every five minutes, quickly filling an entire bucket with over twenty fish.

And the number of followers in the live stream room is also rapidly increasing.

"Wow, Ye God’s technique is really awesome!"

"Ye God, keep it up! I support you!"

"Wow! Ye God is fantastic!"

...

The live stream audience is highly enthusiastic, continuously cheering Ye Chen on, and he enjoys the feeling of their ardor.

Finally, when the entire bucket of fish is sold out, Ye Chen starts to pack up his stuff, ready to leave, but at this moment, he stops in his tracks.

"Eh, what is this..." Ye Chen stares into the depths of the fishpond, a dark area that seems to hide a prehistoric giant beast.

After hesitating for a moment, he decides to go over and take a look.

Then, Ye Chen starts walking towards the dark fishpond.

The deeper Ye Chen walks into the fishpond, the colder the surroundings become, almost as though he is inside an ice cellar, goosebumps sprouting all over his body.

The fishpond is very quiet, with only the occasional sound of insects, nothing else.

"Hmm?" Ye Chen frowns, feeling something is not quite right.

Suddenly, Ye Chen seems to realize something, turns around wanting to run, but at this moment, his legs are frozen, unable to move an inch.

Just then, a cold wind blows, sweeping up the fallen leaves on the ground and blocking Ye Chen’s view.

Immediately afterward, an extremely pungent smell wafts up from under Ye Chen’s feet.

It’s a rotten corpse, emitting a strong stench.

When Ye Chen sees the rotten corpse clearly, he gets a shock; it’s a woman’s body, dressed simply, with a very tragic appearance.

The woman must have been dead for a long time because the clothes on her body had already decayed into ash, revealing pale bones underneath, still emitting a faint smell of blood.

Ye Chen, resisting the surge of gastric acid and the urge to vomit, bends down and picks up the decayed clothes; though they are torn and worn, even their color faded, but Ye Chen still recognizes that these are women’s clothes.

Suddenly faced with this situation, Ye Chen doesn’t dare to delay, promptly takes out his mobile phone and calls the police.

Soon, the police arrive according to the address given by Ye Chen, and upon seeing the girl’s body, their expressions turn notably grim.

"I suspect this girl was victim to a homicide," the police captain muses. "We need to immediately inspect the scene."

"Alright, I’ll join you," Ye Chen nods, very curious about the girl’s identity.

Soon, Ye Chen follows the police to where the girl’s body lies.

At this moment, the girl’s body is covered with a tattered old coat, which looks quite old and stained with many splotches.

The police captain squats down, carefully examines the girl’s body, and finally concludes, "This girl appears to have been abused while alive, and there are no apparent injuries on her body."

"If my conjecture is correct, the cause of her death should be drowning or suffocation!"
