Became a salted fish pretend heiress and handed over the system-Chapter 436 - 425 Grilled Fish

"What are you looking at? Let’s go," Xia Yue said to it.

The sea otter acknowledged humanly with a nod and followed her into the sea.

Xia Yue brought the sea otter to a nearby deserted island, where the sea was filled with yellow croaker fish and juveniles she had released before. To placate this feisty sea otter, she decided to treat it to a feast today.

In truth, she herself also wanted to eat.

Thanks to the bonus provided by the vacation area, most of the sea fish in this region were edible, just not available for sale yet.

They swam deeper into the sea and soon found a large yellow croaker.

Xia Yue signaled to the sea otter with one of her forelegs, asking it to corner the fish from one side while she chased it from the other to prevent it from escaping.

Understood, the sea otter swam off to the front.

Having previously hunted using her dragon form in a different space, Xia Yue was now less stiff with it.

Seeing that the sea otter was ready, Xia Yue swiftly swam toward the yellow croaker.

Seeming to sense danger, the yellow croaker swam faster, but was still slower than Xia Yue. Within a minute, Xia Yue had caught the big fish with her two claws and swam back toward the surface.

Upon seeing that she had caught the yellow croaker, the sea otter swam over and followed her up to the surface.

Once they reached the shore, Xia Yue left the fish on the beach and said to the sea otter, "Watch it, and don’t you dare nibble at it. Wait for me to come back."

Then, she ran into the bushes of the deserted island, entered a different space, changed her clothes, and came out again.

On returning, she found that the sea otter had set up vigil beside the yellow croaker, which was still flopping around.

"We’ll split it half and half," Xia Yue told the sea otter.

She took a bucket of water, a knife, and a cutting board out of her bag, then grabbed the fish and walked to the water’s edge.

She rinsed the fish clean and then started preparing it.

Although she was lazy, she cooked occasionally and had prepared fish a few times, so it wasn’t too challenging.

After preparing the fish, she divided it in two, giving one half to the sea otter.

"This is yours," Xia Yue said.

"Arf." The sea otter nodded, took the portion, and started eating immediately.

Xia Yue held the cleaned fish in one hand and poured the water from the bucket over the cutting board and knife with the other. They would be properly cleaned later.

She then took out grilling equipment from her system bag and began to grill the fish.

As she brushed seasoning over the fish, its fragrant aroma started to fill the air.

The sea otter, which had been eating its raw fish, paused as it caught wind of the grilled fish’s scent. It followed the aroma and fixated its gaze on the grilled fish in Xia Yue’s hand.

"Arf, arf", the sea otter pointed to the grilled fish and cried out to Xia Yue.

"You can’t eat cooked food; your share is right there in your hand," Xia Yue replied.

"Arf, arf, arf!" the sea otter voiced its discontent.

"Stop whining, I’ll give you a little bit." Xia Yue thought it fast approaching the development of Spiritual Wisdom and figured it wouldn’t hurt to give it a tiny bit of cooked food.

Only after hearing Xia Yue’s consent did the sea otter stop its protests. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

Xia Yue quickly tore off a bit of the fish that had been grilled without much seasoning and held it to the otter’s mouth seeing as she hadn’t yet seasoned much of it.

The sea otter opened its mouth wide.

Xia Yue put the piece of fish in its mouth.

The sea otter started eating immediately. Its eyes lit up as it tasted cooked food for the first time.

"Arf arf arf," it seemed to want more.

"That’s it! If I give you more, what will I eat? Hurry up and finish yours," Xia Yue reprimanded the otter, putting on a stern face.

Seeing Xia Yue’s darkened expression, the sea otter didn’t dare to continue begging. Flustered, it went back to eating the raw fish in its hand.

After it had finished eating, it ran off into the bushes on the island.

"Don’t run about!" Xia Yue called out to it.
