The Fisherman Who Never Catches Fish-Chapter 48 - 47 Experience the Perils of the Adult World
Fang Hao shifted his belongings behind him, especially the empty fish guard.
"I can't hold it, I'm about to laugh so hard I'll cry."
"Whoa-haha, I was just wondering if the kid would ask the host how many fish he had caught, and sure enough, he really did ask."
"The kid's awesome, I love this finishing touch."
"The host has got to be feeling that one in his heart."
"Host, let him experience the wicked world of adults, 'accidentally' release the fish in the guard into the water and see if he cries."
"Hahaha, then I bet the kid's dad will be out for blood with the host."
A bunch of friends in the live stream happened to witness the scene of the child politely greeting Fang Hao.
They were laughing so hard that they were near tears.
...
Of course, Fang Hao wouldn't do as the viewers suggested.
He looked over at his fellow angler, Brother Zhang, with a particularly special smile on his face.
It felt like the warm and comforting sunshine of March shining on his face.
"Brother Zhang, what grade is your kid in now?"
"Just started second grade, why?" Brother Zhang was a bit puzzled.
"Second grade..."
"I see the kid is so smart and nimble, he must be a good seed for academics in the future. Second grade is the time to lay the groundwork. The competition in studying is fierce, and the middle school exam is a big hurdle. Falling behind once means falling behind at every step, we can't afford to neglect this. So, I plan to gift him a wee bit of study materials to enrich his childhood a bit more!"
Fang Hao spoke earnestly.
Children, after all, should have a little bit more 'care' in their childhood.
"Yes, the pressure of studying on kids these days is indeed great."
"There's so much homework even in the first grade."
Fisher Brother Zhang sighed, speaking from experience.
"But giving study materials is unnecessary, how could I let you spend money like that."
"Eh, Brother Zhang, how can you consider this spending? I just want to give the kid a little gift since he likes it!"
"You don't want your own kid to fall behind others, do you?"
"Well... okay then." Brother Zhang no longer refused.
"When your sister-in-law gets back, I'll invite you over for a meal."
"That sounds great, I would love to taste sister-in-law's cooking." Fang Hao smiled and nodded.
Child: "???"
What happened?
What are these two adults talking about?
Why do I feel such a strong sense of crisis?
The little boy's eyes were filled with puzzled light.
"Well, Brother Zhang, I have some other things to take care of, I'll head back now."
"Sure."
For some reason, Fang Hao felt his mood had significantly improved.
"Oh my."
"The host is too cunning."
"Host, is this something a person should do?"
"Aren't you afraid the kid will grow up and seek revenge?"
"The host couldn't outfish the kid, so now he's taking revenge on him."
"But I don't know why, it feels kind of satisfying watching this."
"Heh heh, now I know how to deal with my annoying little cousin, thanks for the tip, host."
"Hahaha, this is the wickedness of the adult world."
"The host is too bad."
The crowd in the live stream were all stunned after seeing Fang Hao's move.
They never imagined Fang Hao would do such a thing.
Their jaws dropped.
But with this move, he gained a bunch of new fans.
The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.
The whole live stream room was boiling with excitement.
The number of people sending gifts surged again.
Super Fires one after another.
"What do you all know, I'm doing this for the kid's sake."
"When he grows up, he'll thank me."
Fang Hao hummed, his mood really good.
"Watch out in case he grows up and does the same to your kid."
"Not scared, I'm single, worst comes to worst, I'll just stay childfree."
"Tsch, single dog."
"Passing by with my girlfriend while watching the live stream."
"Alright, brothers"
"I'm ready to end the stream for today."
After Fang Hao put his things back into the car, he was also ready to end the live stream.
He had been fishing live for about two or three hours today, so the timing was pretty decent.
"That quickly!"
"Ah, I haven't had my fill yet, and you're ending the stream?"
"Streamer, why don't you hang out in the live room for a few more minutes and chat with us?"
Everyone seemed reluctant to let go.
They were just getting into it.
Why did it have to end so soon?
"I've been streaming for several hours already."
"Plus, I have to drive later, so I need to pay attention to safety."
"Don't worry, everyone. I'll notify you in advance before my next live stream."
After saying this, Fang Hao finally turned off the live stream.
His debut on Hu Ya had come to a perfect close.
Seeing Fang Hao end the stream, Su Baige was ecstatic.
The effects of this stream had far exceeded her expectations.
The numbers were explosive.
At its peak, the viewership had reached one and a half million!
What did that mean?
She had thought that if Fang Hao could hit a viewership of three to four hundred thousand in his first Hu Ya stream, it would be considered quite good.
Even with the heat and traffic from Weibo, at most, it might reach five or six hundred thousand.
But to her surprise... the numbers had reached one and a half million!
His first stream had such excellent results.
She realized she might have underestimated this streamer.
She had discovered a treasure.
Could she be anything but excited and happy?
Fang Hao's success also meant a validation of her good judgment.
Her position at Hu Ya might even have a chance to move up further.
A perfect first stream.
She and Fang Hao were the biggest winners of this live broadcast.
Su Baige also used this opportunity to send Fang Hao a congratulatory message, celebrating his perfect debut on Hu Ya.
...
After driving home, Fang Hao noticed the message from Su Baige.
"Thank you."
He politely sent a reply.
His impression of Su Baige was limited to what he knew from social media.
He had never met her in person.
But her photos on social media had left a significant impression on him.
Fang Hao didn't dwell on it too much, deciding to see what would happen when they eventually met.
Then he would know if the photos were real or photoshopped.
Once home, Fang Hao placed the wooden box and secret manual he had fished today next to the radio.
This corner of the room had become the place where he kept all the things he caught while fishing.
After putting everything away,
Fang Hao finally turned his attention back to the rewards.
The biggest gain from this live session was the "Platinum Treasure Box".
All in all, the fishing expedition wasn't exactly fruitless.
He immediately felt better.
Any frustration from not catching fish earlier had been swept away.
After inspecting the Treasure Chest, Fang Hao prepared to see what was inside.
With the experience from opening two chest previously, he was very much looking forward to the rewards inside this one.
He wondered what it could be.
The level of the reward chests was higher than before, so the contents were bound to be better.
Fang Hao was filled with anticipation.
The fishing gear he wore today fitted him perfectly, and he didn't feel hot at all.
Looking at the other anglers, who were all sweltering in the heat,
He felt as if he were sitting in an air-conditioned room.
The automatic temperature adjustment feature of the clothing was amazing.
If it was hot, it could cool down; if it was cold, it could warm up.
Fang Hao loved this feature.
It was the dream clothing of every fisherman.
