Chapter 40 Look at that crab, it's so fat and big! (1/2)

Yan Yu looked at Ruan Tang with a smile.

Looking into the little girl's bright almond-shaped eyes, the image of the king crab was clearly reflected, and her eyes were full of longing.

He smiled indulgently.

That's enough.

No matter how dazzling those jewels and diamonds were, they couldn't compare to the light in her eyes at that moment.

As long as she's happy, he'll find a way to pluck down even the moon from the sky and present it to her, let alone a few crabs.

Thinking of this, the last trace of frustration in Yan Yu's heart instantly turned into sweetness.

He resignedly stood up, casually closing the dozens of display boxes filled with rare jewels. His actions lacked the solemnity he had shown earlier, as if they were not priceless jewels, but a pile of worthless stones.

"Wait."

The man ruffled Ruan Tang's fluffy little head, uttered two words, and then appeared on the beach a hundred meters away in a flash.

Ruan Tang immediately stood on tiptoe and excitedly stood on the stone platform at the edge of the dock to look out.

Yan Yu didn't even make a move; he merely glanced indifferently at the large creatures that were running rampant on the beach.

The next second, the largest king crabs closest to him seemed to have their massive shells gripped by an invisible hand.

Its eight legs moved rapidly through the air, and then it was lifted up by an invisible force, slowly flying into the air.

Ruan Tang stared wide-eyed.

Good heavens!

What kind of object manipulation technique is this? It's so convenient!

As she marveled, Yan Yu had already "escorted" the several menacing king crabs over and landed them steadily on the beach not far away.

The man flashed back to her side, and looking at the little girl's adorable, greedy expression, he couldn't help but chuckle and reached out to gently stroke the tip of her small nose.

"So greedy?"

Ruan Tang chuckled and nodded repeatedly like a chick pecking at rice, her gaze fixed on the crabs on the ground, which were bigger than her two heads.

"Look at that crab, it's big and fat!"

Yan Yu was amused by her surprised expression and a happy laugh escaped his throat.

Without further delay, a brand-new outdoor barbecue setup appeared out of thin air on the open ground of the dock, with various seasonings and tools neatly arranged next to it, along with a picnic mat covered with a checkered tablecloth and two soft cushions.

Yan Yu casually took out a few more bottles of chilled ginger ale, his preparations were even more thorough than Ruan Tang had imagined.

Yan Yu handed the opened ginger ale to Ruan Tang, gesturing for her to sit down and rest for a while before skillfully preparing the seafood.

His hands, with their distinct knuckles, were now holding a small utility knife, deftly and elegantly processing the king crab.

The hard crab shell was as easy to dismantle in his hands as if it were made of paper, revealing the plump, white crab meat inside.

Next, he scooped up a net full of lively lobsters, shrimps, capelin, squid, mackerel, and oysters from the sea, cleaned them quickly, and skewered them one by one with bamboo sticks.

Then clean the scallops, put them in a steamer, add vermicelli, minced garlic and sauce, and steam the scallops in the pot.

Ruan Tang squatted down to the side, drinking her beverage while watching intently.

The man's focused expression possessed an indescribable charm. The lines of his profile were strong and distinct, his long eyelashes casting a small shadow beneath his eyes, and his expression was focused and serious, as if he were disassembling some intricate machine.

The salty sea breeze ruffled his short hair, carrying a clean and refreshing scent, mixed with his unique aroma, that drifted into her nose.

Ruan Tang stared blankly, her cheeks burning without her realizing it.

By the time she came to her senses, Yan Yu had already started the fire and neatly arranged the prepared seafood on the grill.
