Alaska Gold Rush Diary

With Edward's help, the fish was quickly hauled onto the deck.

"My goodness, this fish is huge!"

"And it was a mozzarella tuna! This is the first time I've ever seen someone catch one!"

Even among those who mostly favored Sullivan to win, some couldn't help but gasp in surprise.

Zhou Xin took the tissue Zhang Jianing handed him and wiped his sweat, laughing, "I almost got dragged down with it."

Edward had already climbed aboard the ship with the captain's help. He excitedly squatted down and patted the fish's body.

"Hurry up and weigh it, let's see how much this thing weighs!"

The captain quickly brought out a scale, and with the help of Zhou Xin and Edward, the fish was lifted up.

"153 pounds!" Edward shouted.

Another gasp rippled through the crowd.

Although this tuna is only of medium size among adult mozzarella tuna, it is considered very large for a group of amateur fishermen.

Moreover, this has only been going on for less than three hours.

Even professional anglers wouldn't dare guarantee catching such a large fish, especially a very rare tuna, within a few hours.

"Sullivan, there's no need to continue. With just this one fish, Sin can defeat you."

Edward shouted triumphantly to Sullivan, who was standing to the side.

Sullivan's face was extremely ugly, and he no longer had that British gentlemanly demeanor.

He stared intently at the tuna on the ground, and after a long while, he managed to force a smile.

"You're very lucky, I lost."

Although he was very unwilling, he couldn't bring himself to renege on the rule since it had been stated publicly. Even though everyone was on his side, he couldn't bring himself to do it.

Zhou Xin smiled and said, "Then let's keep our promise."

Sullivan suppressed his anger and gave Anjing a wink.

"But..." Anli hesitated for a moment, appearing very unwilling.

She knew that the White Night ice cream was something Sullivan had bought for a lot of money; she had never even seen it before and had originally intended to use it to please Hathaway.

Deep down, she harbored a fantasy that after Sullivan was rejected by Hathaway, he would give this luxurious dessert to her, who had always helped him.

Now, this expensive white night ice cream is going to be taken by the disgusting yellow-skinned pig in front of her. How could she be willing to accept that?

"Go get it quickly!"

Seeing Sullivan's unfriendly expression, despite her reluctance, she went into the yacht and came out carrying a beautifully packaged box.

"Wow, is this the White Nights ice cream that costs nearly $7000?" someone in the crowd exclaimed.

Despite the fact that the United States is a developed country and everyone seems to be very rich, the economic situation of most ordinary people is actually quite average.

They adhere to a hedonistic consumption philosophy and most of them do not have the habit of saving money.

Therefore, these expensive desserts are a luxury that most ordinary people cannot afford.

Sullivan reluctantly used his father's credit card to buy it in order to please Hathaway.

Now he was about to lose this dessert to his rival Zhou Xin, which naturally made him extremely unhappy.

But the challenge was initiated by him, and he also set the stakes himself. He found that he didn't even have anyone to vent his anger on.

He took the box, forcing a smile as he handed it to Zhou Xin: "I hope this luxurious and delicious dessert won't dazzle your eyes!"

Zhou Xin took the box and opened it immediately.

In an exquisite glass dish, white ice cream is sprinkled with white truffles, gold leaf, and other expensive ingredients.

It's only slightly larger than an egg, delicate and petite.

Zhou Xin was stunned. This was far too little. By weight, it was even more expensive than gold. It truly was a luxury item.

A wave of envious glances swept through the crowd, especially from the girls.

These exquisite luxury items seem to have been made specifically to attract women.

This is why Sullivan secretly used his father's credit card to buy things to please the beauty.

However, this luxurious dessert is indeed meant to please the girl he likes, but he won't be the one to deliver it.

"Here, try it and see if it's good. This one bite costs several hundred yuan!" Zhou Xin handed the White Night ice cream to Zhang Jianing.

A blush of happiness appeared on Zhang Jianing's face. She carefully took the package, opened it, scooped out a spoonful, and put it in her mouth.

Sullivan, standing nearby, felt his heart bleeding and deeply regretted betting his life on competing against Zhou Xin.

"Although it's expensive, it's really delicious. Here, you should try some."

After saying that, Zhang Jianing used the spoon she had used to scoop up a spoonful and fed it to Zhou Xin.

Zhou Xin didn't stand on ceremony, took the cup in one gulp, and smacked his lips, saying, "Sweet, so sweet it warms my heart."

Zhang Jianing smiled sweetly, her face flushed even more.

Seeing the two of them being so affectionate, Sullivan's eyes seemed to be spitting fire.

But the blows to him were far from over. Edward clapped his hands and said:

"Very well, Sullivan, you are indeed a gentleman who keeps his promises. The winner's reward has been given, so shouldn't the loser's punishment also be carried out?"

Sullivan's expression changed, and he was extremely conflicted.

He proposed the competition requirements and the rewards and penalties himself, and he said it in front of everyone.

He thought he had victory in the bag and never considered what would happen if he lost.

Now he was in a difficult situation and didn't know what to do.

Do I really have to strip naked in front of so many people and let the birds fly freely?

In that case, I'll definitely become a laughing stock.

However, if you refuse to do it, you will also be secretly ridiculed.

His face turned pale and then flushed, and he stood there for a moment, unable to think.

Zhou Xin smiled and leaned close to Zhang Jianing's ear, whispering, "I'm afraid it will hurt your eyes, so how about we let him go?"

Zhang Jianing nodded vigorously as she ate her ice cream.

Zhou Xin wasn't being soft-hearted or afraid of anything; he simply found the competition boring from the very beginning. For him, watching Sullivan swim naked in public without even eating was more appealing.

Zhou Xin then said with a smile, "He's not a beauty, so I don't think anyone would be interested in seeing his naked body."

I think we should hurry up and process this tuna, then start our seaside lunch as soon as possible. I'm sure many of you are as hungry as I am.

Upon hearing this, everyone echoed his sentiments.

If anyone present was qualified and most suitable to request the cancellation of Sullivan's punishment, it would undoubtedly be Zhou Xin, the victor of the contest.

Sullivan was clearly surprised that he would let him off the hook, and was slightly taken aback, but quickly accepted the way out he was given.

"That's right, it's more important to start our banquet as soon as possible than to watch me swim naked!"

A cheer erupted from the crowd, and several boys carried the tuna from the ground toward the yacht.

Zhang Jianing smiled as she looked at Zhou Xin beside her, feeling as if the sweetness of the White Night Ice Cream had truly seeped into her heart.
