Fish Tide

This cat was so annoying that he wanted to chase it away.

"If he's human, shouldn't we save him?" Liao Ning asked. Seeing that her little cub was angry, she said patiently, "We're companions. If you were in danger, I would save you without hesitation."

"Even if the price is…" Even if she got severely injured or lost her life.

Liao Nai was halfway through her sentence when she saw Liao Ning's injured hand.

At that time, if not for saving him, his aunt wouldn't have been injured.

Her aunt was an adult, so she knew what it felt like to be pierced by an iron needle, but she still endured that blow in order to protect him.

If he despised the kitten for being weak and wanted to chase it away, how was he different from those adults who bullied him?

Liao Nai looked down in dejection.

Liao Ning was still treating the little white cat's wound when she felt another furry creature rubbing against her.

It was Liao Nai in his wolf form.

Liao Ning hugged him and stroked his back as she said, "Xiaonai, I won't abandon you. Be good now. I'll accompany you after I treat the kitten's wound, okay?"

At this point, the wolf cub was still lying at her feet. His ears drooped and he let out a low whimper while his claws were still pushing the white cat out restlessly.

Seeing this, Liao Ning immediately understood the wolf cub's intentions.

After she gently placed the white cat wrapped in a towel beside the sofa, she hugged the wolf cub.

At that moment, the wolf cub's ears pricked up and he stuck out his tongue at her.

Haha, where else could she find such a cute wolf cub? How could she bear to abandon him?

Liao Ning caressed the wolf cub's fur as she said, "Be obedient now. I'll make roasted fish for you tonight, okay?"

After witnessing his aunt's culinary skills, Liao Nai drooled at the mention of food. He immediately nodded and jumped down from Liao Ning's arms to return to his human form.

"Then can I hug the kitten?" Liao Nai asked.

Liao Ning didn't refuse. She gently placed the kitten in Liao Nai's arms and taught him how to treat the wounds on the kitten.

As Liao Nai carefully applied medicine to the wound with a cotton swab, he could clearly feel the cat's breathing on his thigh.

Liao Nai was overwhelmed with emotions as he felt the kitten's breathing and heartbeat.

Was this his companion?

The fragile kitten needed protection. Now, he understand his aunt's desire to save the kitten.

"Aunt." Liao Nai looked at Liao Ning happily.

The AI butler, Little V, popped up a hologram and said, "Master, I sense a large group of fish approaching the lake."

"Very good. It didn't take much effort." After Liao Ning studied the map for a while, she patted Liao Nai's shoulder and said, "Xiaonai, we have fish to eat tonight."

Liao Nai was still staring at the map on the holographic projection, but his expression froze when he saw the red dots floating on it flashed.

The weather on Blue Planet was special. After the snowstorm yesterday, there would be a short warm tide.

As the cold and hot air converged, the ground was more or less affected. The place where the cold and hot streams merged in the water was where the fish gathered.

Perhaps they could really eat grilled fish tonight.

After the aunt and nephew settled the kitten, they rode the sled back to the ice lake. At that moment, the snow on the ice lake gradually melted and the ice on the lake showed signs of cracking.

The fishing net Liao Ning had set up in advance showed signs of being pulled into the lake.

It was a big fish!

Liao Nai stood above the hill excitedly as he waited for his aunt to reel in the net.

She estimated that she had caught a lot of fish and was afraid that Liao Nai would accidentally fall into the water. The ice lake had just melted, so it would be dangerous if he fell into it.

After Liao Ning put away the net, she tied it up with ropes and threw it to Liao Nai.

Just like that, the two of them worked together to pull the net up.

The moment the net was pulled up, water kept splashing on the surface of the lake. A total of two tons of fish were sent onto the sled.

This was the first time Liao Nai had seen so many fish. After careful inspection, she realized that there were fish and pliers inside.

"This is Blue Planet's unique river shrimp. It's edible," Liao Ning said.

After she obtained the geographical blueprint of the Blue Planet, she had already recorded the knowledge about creatures here into the AI.

She knew what was edible and what wasn't. She even knew how to handle the food contaminated by the blue crystal yesterday.

As for these river prawns, someone from the Star Federation Research Institute had been monitoring them since long ago. They were similar to the river crabs on Earth in the early days. Their meat texture was the same. After some time, they were neglected because there were no vegetables to cook along with them.

Now, the market price of vegetables in interstellar space was so low that five interstellar coins could buy a catty, but no one was interested.

Liao Ning pondered over it. Perhaps this could be a breakthrough point for her food live broadcast.

She opened the mission tool the system had given her for free—Cantonese Recipe.

It recorded many recipes related to prawns.

When she saw a simple recipe, her eyes lit up. "Why don't we eat more black shrimp tonight?"
