I Can Fish Up Everything!

Chapter 182: Chapter 131: Unlocking a One-time Beachcombing Map

"Ah Nan, want to go hang out at the big beach on Lingdou Island tonight? I hear there are a lot of bikinis."

Gu Nan’s pupils contracted when he saw the message from An Jun. He glanced at the two women washing dishes and pots by the door and replied, "Are we bringing your girlfriend and Yi Chen?"

"Are you stupid? If we bring them, how are we supposed to have any fun?" An Jun was exasperated, his fingers flying across the screen as he typed.

Gu Nan thought about it and realized he was right. If they brought the two women along, they might not do anything out of line, but they’d definitely have to be on their best behavior. They couldn’t even let their eyes wander.

If he wanted to see Yi Chen in a swimsuit or watch her swim, it would be better to take her out on his boat himself.

Thinking about her figure, Gu Nan suddenly felt it was essential to visit the fishing club and ask if the diving instructor had arrived yet. He wanted to learn.

Fishing to make money was his top priority, but the lewder things in life couldn’t be neglected either.

The two buddies agreed to close up shop early that night and drive the two women home first.

Afterward, Gu Nan drove An Jun all the way to the beach on Lingdou Island. It was a bit far, taking about forty minutes by car.

During the day in the height of summer, the beach was pretty empty, but at night, it was packed.

After paying the entrance fee and changing into their new swim trunks, the two walked in and were immediately greeted by the sight of a brightly lit beach filled with long legs and bikinis.

Never mind Gu Nan—even An Jun, who was shamelessly horny, was acting all serious. His gaze would only occasionally drift over to the scantily clad young women, as if he were worried they might catch a cold.

At that moment, however, a game-like notification sound echoed in Gu Nan’s mind.

[Ding! A foraging location has been detected with over 90% compatibility with the Fengqi Coast game map. Would Host like to spend one thousand Gold Coins to unlock it?]

[Once unlocked, Host may enter the one-time foraging map at any time. Note: The map will close when its resources drop below 50%, and resources will not regenerate while the map is in use.]

’Holy crap, it can do that?’

Gu Nan was filled with regret. If he had come to the beach on Lingdou Island sooner, he could have unlocked this feature earlier.

The resources from his last foraging trip were still fresh in his mind. If he had unlocked this map earlier, he might not have needed to borrow money to buy his boat.

Besides, foraging in a resource-rich area was a great recreational activity. Now that fishing had become his profession, fishing every day was tiring him out, both physically and mentally. Foraging would be a perfect way to relax.

Now that his daily attempts could be accumulated, Gu Nan could afford to take a break once in a while, unlike at the beginning when missing a single day was a huge loss.

Gu Nan decisively spent the one thousand Gold Coins to unlock it. Fortunately, once it was unlocked, he could enter the map from anywhere and plunder it until it closed.

"So, what do you think? Not bad, right?" An Jun asked with a grin.

"It’s alright. Definitely a good place to unwind." Coming back to his senses, Gu Nan glanced around. ’These legs are so long... ahem, I mean, these swim rings are so white.’

Walking barefoot on the beach, he could feel the warmth of the sand under his feet. It was obvious that coming in the afternoon would have been scorching hot.

The beach wasn’t small, either; it was about five hundred meters long.

Although the sun had already set, a faint glow remained on the horizon, allowing Gu Nan to see a shark net partially submerged in the water not far away.

Even though sharks had all but disappeared from the coastal waters, these nets were probably a mandatory government requirement.

Who knew if a lost great white shark might show up? It was for everyone’s safety.

Both sides of the beach were flanked by reefs, and he could faintly see people fishing on them. It seemed to be the beach resort’s designated fishing area, which also required an entrance fee.

Seeing a group of girls in bikinis playing in the water nearby, An Jun grinned and sauntered over to join the fun.

Seeing this, Gu Nan went off on his own to buy a twenty-eight-yuan cup of freshly squeezed iced orange juice, found a lounge chair, and lay down to enjoy the sea breeze.

’It’s enough to just admire the beautiful scenery. Taking a bite is out of the question—that requires wit, emotional intelligence, and money, and I’m pretty average in all those departments.’

Just then, a girl in a relatively conservative one-piece swimsuit walked past him.

The girl was tall, and though the beach was full of long-legged women, her legs still managed to stand out. Gu Nan’s gaze was inevitably drawn to her—it was purely an appreciation for beautiful things.

The passing girl seemed to notice his gaze and casually turned her head, only to be captivated by his prominent eight-pack abs.

A physique like that—natural, not exaggerated, and brimming with masculine hormones—was equally eye-catching.

Plenty of women had been sneaking glances at him earlier, but women in the country were relatively reserved and too shy to openly hit on him.

There were bold women out there, but in reality, they were a small minority.

Gu Nan’s eyes met the girl’s. They both froze for a moment, a strange sense of familiarity washing over them.

Seeing this, the girl confidently sat down on the lounge chair next to him and smiled. "Have we met before?"

Gu Nan thought for a moment, then a photograph suddenly came to mind. "You’re Lin Mengqi!"

"You know me?" Lin Mengqi looked puzzled.

The next moment, before Gu Nan could answer, she recalled the photo she’d seen when her family introduced her to a blind date. Her expression cleared with understanding as she laughed, "Oh, it’s you! My blind date!"

Being rejected always leaves a stronger impression. If it had been anyone else, she might not have remembered them.

"What a coincidence. Are you here to relax too?" Gu Nan hadn’t expected to run into her here.
