Chapter 1282 The Beachcombing Girl Streamer and the Aloof Campus God (9)

The Beachcombing Girl and the Cool Campus Heartthrob (Part 9)

Lance is very reliable. He not only recorded a video for the package he sent, but also sent the tracking number to Song Ning when he sent it.

Song Ning checked the tracking number and found that Lance had sent the package using the fastest next-day delivery service in China, which meant he would receive the luggage from Lance tomorrow.

"Wait a minute, does that mean the hairy crabs will arrive tomorrow too?"

The problem is that if he does this, won't he have to think about how to eat all these crabs tomorrow?

Song Ning hesitated.

He was thinking of inviting Ah Xing and the others to dinner, but then he thought it would be disrespectful to use Lance's things to treat others.

After hesitating for a while, he couldn't help but glance at his phone again.

It's perfectly normal and reasonable for him to ask, right?

It doesn't seem like he was deliberately making up an excuse just to contact Lance, does it?

He pondered for a while, but couldn't resist sending a message.

Song Ning: Um, are there a lot of hairy crabs? I'm a little worried that one person might not be able to finish them all.

He regretted it a little after he sent it.

If someone gives you a gift and he asks you this question, won't that make people feel bad?

Lance replied quickly.

Lance: I think it should be fine? It should be just right for your appetite, don't worry ^_^

My appetite?

But how did Lance know my appetite?

There were more and more things she couldn't understand, and Song Ning couldn't figure them out even after thinking for a long time.

Since things have come to this, let's go to sleep.

The next morning, the appliance store worker called first.

They delivered and installed it to my door.

"Your place is a bit remote; we almost couldn't find it."

Two technicians arrived, and they specifically asked Song Ning to inspect the three machines before installing them.

Song Ning: "Everything is fine. The roads here are quite difficult to drive on. You've worked hard."

Master 1: "We're used to this job. Back when we were doing the rural appliance subsidy program, we went to even more remote places. At least here there's a main road, which is already quite easy to travel. It's just that the location is a bit remote."

Master Number Two: "There are very few people here. How can a young person like you live in a place like this? There's nowhere to go if you want to go out and have fun. It's very boring."

This small three-story house is built on the edge of a cliff. Although there is a proper road leading to it, most people would not want to live in such a place.

Song Ning: "If we don't live in the house we built, where else would we live?"

Master Number One: "Oh, I see. Then you should stay here. You young people don't have much choice."

Although the two masters were talkative and loved to gossip, they mostly talked about mundane family matters.

Song Ning initially replied with a few words, but later simply took two bottles of drinks from the old refrigerator and handed them to them. The two workers probably realized that he was no longer talkative, so they buried themselves in their work.

After the appliances were installed, Song Ning cut a lemon and put it in the new refrigerator to remove the smell of the new machines. This refrigerator was much bigger than the old one. He bought it specifically so that it would be convenient to store any big fish he caught in the future if he wanted to eat them himself.

In addition, he also bought some oxygenation equipment online. These things are available in town, but the prices weren't ideal when he inquired, so he gave up on them.

After doing all that, Song Ning suddenly received a phone call.

The crabs Lance sent yesterday arrived at the courier point, along with his luggage.

Song Ning: "Have we arrived yet? I'll go get it."

Deliveryman: "Oh, no need. I'll bring these things over for you. You can just wait at home. The delivery fee includes door-to-door delivery."

Song Ning only realized after the package arrived that while other courier services in the area did not deliver to the door, Lans's courier service was the most expensive and had specifically selected the door-to-door delivery option.

The deliveryman helped him unload the package. "Not many people choose this one. My boss specifically told me to make sure it's delivered to my door."

Song Ning wanted to help him, but the deliveryman refused righteously.

"My unloading is included in the package, so you don't need to lift a finger. I've earned this money, so I should do this job."

He even added Song Ning as a friend, saying, "If any of your friends send you things in the future, I'll send you a message. If it's inconvenient for you, I can come and unload them in your garage for you. That way, it won't bother you or me."

The luggage that was sent consisted of three large boxes, which Song Ning temporarily placed in an empty space in the garage on the first floor.

Then there was that box of hairy crabs.

He opened the box, and the nine hairy crabs were still very fresh.

Song Ning didn't know much about prices, so he thought for a moment, took a picture, and sent it to Ah Xing privately.

Song Ning: Brother, a friend sent me a gift, and I wanted to ask if you know what the price of hairy crabs is now? I want to think about how to repay the favor.

Ah Xing replied about half an hour later.

Ah Xing: I just went to pick up my niece. You're such a kind friend! This box of hairy crabs doesn't look cheap. These crabs look like they weigh eight or nine ounces each, right? They must cost at least two hundred yuan each these days.

Ah Xing: If you want to return the favor, why don't you come with us to catch some eels tomorrow? If you find any eels that weigh a pound or two, that would be a good gift for your friend. Many bosses buy these kinds of eels, and they're not cheap.

so expensive?

Song Ning stared at the nine large hairy crabs in the box, her mind buzzing.

He had expected the items to be expensive, but he hadn't imagined they would be this pricey.

What he couldn't understand most right now was, were these expensive crabs just given to him, the temporary landlord? It was obvious that Lance wasn't short of money, otherwise he wouldn't have paid five thousand a month to rent such a place.

The crabs in the box looked very fresh. Song Ning turned one over, and it was very plump with a bright yellow color that could be seen through the shell, making it look even more valuable.

Crab roe noodles, steamed hairy crab, spicy stir-fried crab, fried crab—all sorts of cooking methods immediately came to mind. He could even vaguely smell the aroma, so incredibly delicious.

Song Ning stared at the hairy crab for a while before picking up her phone and sending two messages.

Song Ning: Okay, Brother Xing, then call me when you guys catch eels tomorrow, and I'll come along too.

Song Ning: Your luggage has arrived in Lans. I also received the hairy crabs. Thank you. They look delicious.

Ah Xing: OK, I'll tell them and they'll call you later.

Lance: You're welcome, I'm glad you like it, landlord. Please keep my luggage safe for me, I probably won't be able to get there for a few more days.

The replies clearly revealed two completely different personalities. Ah Xing was quite enthusiastic, while Lance was polite but with a hint of aloofness and indifference. Song Ning stared at her phone for a while, then looked down and opened her phone to start searching.

How to cook hairy crabs to make them taste best?

Since things have come to this, of course we should eat first.
