I Go to the High Seas for Fishing But Get Hunted by an Aircraft Carrier-Chapter 372 Concert

"Sigh, this is a problem too." Ye Chen felt a headache coming on, not sure what to do.

Back in school, Ye Chen had received a lot of care from Teacher Xia Bing, and by all rights, he couldn’t refuse his invitation.

But now the situation was really special, Ye Chen hadn’t been back to the store for a long time, and if he kept delaying, his newly opened little store might just go out of business.

Seeing Ye Chen’s dilemma, Lin Yuqing smiled and said, "How about this, I’ll go to the concert in your stead, and you hurry back to Jiangling to take care of the store."

"Ah, really?" Ye Chen was somewhat surprised to hear Lin Yuqing say this.

Lin Yuqing nodded, "Of course it’s true, you’ve been hanging out with me for so long, consider this a repayment of the favor."

"Haha, you’re so kind!" Ye Chen happily planted a kiss on Lin Yuqing’s face and said.

And so it was settled. The two agreed to part ways in Haibin City, with Ye Chen returning to Jiangling and Lin Yuqing buying a high-speed train ticket to Taiyang City to attend Xia Bing’s concert.

...

After returning to Jiangling City, Ye Chen threw himself into managing the fishing gear shop.

One day, Ye Chen suddenly received a call from Li Fu.

"Hello, Old Li, is there something you need from me?" Ye Chen asked as he answered the phone.

Li Fu’s voice came from the other end: "Ye Chen, my boy, do you have any free time recently? Why don’t you accompany this old man on a fishing trip to the seaside?"

Hearing this, Ye Chen thought that he hadn’t gone fishing for a while and then nodded, "Okay, I’ll drive to pick you up tomorrow."

After scheduling a time, Ye Chen continued with his own business.

Early the next day, Ye Chen packed up his fishing gear, picked up Li Fu from the villa area, and took him to a pier, finding a nice spot, they started fishing.

Ye Chen was an excellent fisherman; he soon reeled in a lively, big fish from the water.

It was a large carp, weighing over ten pounds.

Looking at the big fish in his hands, Li Fu laughed heartily, "Ye Chen, your fishing skills are really something, even this old man can’t match up to you."

Hearing this, Ye Chen chuckled and replied, "Oh come on, don’t tease me, my skills are still lacking!"

At that moment, Li Fu asked again, "Ye Chen, you’re already 23 years old this year, what do you think you’ll do in the future? You can’t be working in that little shop of yours forever, right?"

Hearing this, Ye Chen scratched his head and said, "What to do... I don’t know yet, I’ll decide when I find the right job one day."

"Hmm." Li Fu nodded and said, "You’re a capable person. Are you interested in working at my corporation? I can arrange a good position for you."

Hearing this, Ye Chen quickly shook his head and said, "Thank you for your kind offer, Old Li, but I’m not planning on changing jobs for the time being. I still plan to develop and expand this family business and only leave when the time is right."

Li Fu smiled at this and said, "You certainly are ambitious. But don’t get discouraged, I can provide you with a lot of help. For example, are you short of money now? I can lend you twenty million to start."

Ye Chen was suddenly startled and quickly waved his hands, "Old Li, I appreciate your generosity, but I can handle my own affairs, there’s no need to trouble you."

"Ah, why don’t you understand flexibility, young man?" Li Fu frowned and said, "I’m doing this for your own good. I know you’re ambitious, but you also have to consider your own practical circumstances."

"I don’t need it." Ye Chen firmly refused.

Seeing this, Li Fu sighed helplessly, "Alright, if you’re not willing, then I won’t force you."

Li Fu suddenly changed the subject and asked, "So, what are you up to these days?"

Ye Chen replied, "What else could I be doing? I’m running a fishing gear shop of course. Don’t worry, I’ve made quite a bit of money now."

Hearing this, Li Fu laughed heartily and said, "Made quite a bit of money? You’ve really got some skills, kiddo. I always said you wouldn’t settle for mediocrity. You’ve indeed soared high!"

At these words, a faint blush crept onto Ye Chen’s face as he touched his nose awkwardly.

"Alright, you’ve got to work hard. Who knows, maybe one day I’ll collaborate with you," Li Fu said with a smile. Then, he swiftly changed the topic again.

"By the way, Ye Chen, there’s a dance party tonight that you should attend. I’ve already had someone prepare an invitation for you. There will be a lot of young elites from high society there, and you can mingle with them."

"A dance party?" Ye Chen was taken aback when he heard the term, as he had never been to one before.

At that moment, Li Fu patted Ye Chen’s shoulder and said, "You’ve got a lot to learn, kiddo. This is a good opportunity. You might meet more wealthy and influential people."

Hearing this, Ye Chen nodded and said, "Thank you for the advice, Mr. Li. I’ll keep it in mind."

"Mhm." Li Fu nodded slightly and then said, "Alright, I should get going. My better half must have finished preparing by now."

Ye Chen said, "Take care, Mr. Li."

"Goodbye then!"

After waving his hand, Li Fu turned around and left.

Once Li Fu was gone, Ye Chen quietly waited alone for the evening to fall.

...

As night deepened, Ye Chen sat on the luxury yacht, looking at the splendid lights all around and feeling somewhat emotional.

At this time, a waiter approached Ye Chen, bowed, and said, "Sir, this way please."

Ye Chen followed him to the other side of the cabin, then took his seat.

At that moment, an extremely beautiful lady came over and sat down beside Ye Chen. She was tall and wore a short black skirt, revealing her fair and slender legs.

"Good evening, sir. What drink can I get for you?" the lady asked sweetly with a smile.

Ye Chen returned the smile and said, "I’ll have a cup of Blue Mountain coffee, please."

The lady smiled and left after hearing his request.

Before long, a cup of aromatic and rich Blue Mountain coffee was brought over. The lady set it down on the table and said with a beaming smile, "Please enjoy this cup of Blue Mountain coffee, and have a wonderful time tonight."

Ye Chen nodded, picked up the coffee, and gently blew on it.

"Great, thank you!"

Seeing that Ye Chen meant no harm, the lady did not linger and walked away.

Once the lady had left, Ye Chen began to savor the coffee carefully.

The coffee had a smooth texture, a sweet taste, and a lingering aftertaste—it was made from high-quality Bordeaux coffee beans from France, truly a product of a Fortune 500 company, and very impressive indeed.

However, Ye Chen found it strange that the lady did not, like others, call a waiter to serve him. Could it be that she, like the other guests, was there specifically to seduce men?
