As a Fisherman, My Fish Can Level Up-Chapter 82 - : Classes Begin
Chapter 82: Chapter 82: Classes Begin
The taxi stopped in front of a dive club named Snow, and just as Chu Mingcheng got out, he noticed a muscular man in a t-shirt standing at the door.
“Ah Cheng?”
Seeing that a handsome young man had alighted from the car, the man quickly walked over and asked.
“Yes, it’s me. Hello, Daqiang!” Chu Mingcheng smiled, nodding and shaking hands with him.
The reason they called him Daqiang was that all of these coaches seemed to have nicknames.
According to Lu Zheqiang, they had coaches named Gold and Coffee; his was the most normal of the bunch.
...
He took the initiative to grab Chu Mingcheng’s suitcase, then led him towards a building next to the club. “Your room has already been arranged, you rest for a day to recover, and we’ll start classes tomorrow.”
“Alright.”
Chu Mingcheng followed him to his room, a single with an en suite bathroom, laid out just like a hotel room.
Lu Zheqiang wheeled his suitcase into the room, then asked, “Have you had lunch? If not, I can take you to eat.”
“I have, on the plane.”
“Okay, I’ll come back for you tonight, and I’ll take you to try some of Lu City’s local delicacies.”
“There’s no need to go to all that trouble; I’m fine with something simple.”
“Don’t be polite, Brother Jun specifically told me to take good care of you. So I won’t disturb you now, I’ll come to get you tonight.”
“Then thank you.”
“Haha, I said there’s no need for thanks.”
After seeing Lu Zheqiang off, Chu Mingcheng shook his head with a smile; this guy was pretty straightforward and hearty.
He turned on the air conditioning and lay down on the bed, then took out his phone to report his safety to family and friends.
He should have explored this new city properly, but the weather here was too hot; it was like summer, with daytime temperatures still reaching thirty degrees.
The evenings would cool down, offering the perfect time to take a stroll.
Because he went to bed late and had to catch an early flight, he hadn’t rested well. Now, he could definitely take a good nap.
When he woke up, it was already after three o’clock.
He washed his face in the bathroom and immediately felt refreshed.

Picking up his phone to browse some harpoon recommendations and prices, he noticed he had received two messages from Jiang Luoluo.
Opening them, the first thing he saw was a photo with a line of text underneath: “Just dyed my hair, what do you think?”
It was sent at two-thirty. Chu Mingcheng immediately tapped on the photo to take a closer look at her fair and tender…
Cough cough, wrong direction, let’s start again!
This time, he shifted his gaze upwards and discovered Jiang Luoluo had dyed her hair light brown.
“Huh~” She had black hair before, and it was pretty long, almost reaching her waist, which gave Jiang Luoluo a classical beauty.
But after dyeing it and cutting it shorter, he found she looked like a completely different person?
So he replied, “I was napping this afternoon and just saw your message. You look so good, any color would suit you! But after you dyed your hair, I find your style has changed a lot from before.”
“You had a classical air about you before, but now you seem very modern, and even your features make me think you look a bit mixed.”
After sending the message, it wasn’t long before Jiang Luoluo replied, clearly free at the moment.
“(*^__^*), now that you mention it, I do remember! My grandma once told me that my great-great-grandmother’s mother was from Belarus, so I do have a bit of Belarusian blood. But your impression of me being mixed is mainly due to the makeup in this photo.”
“Usually, I wear light makeup, which you shouldn’t be able to tell.”
Chu Mingcheng agreed. Having met her a few times, he really couldn’t tell she was mixed; he just thought she was particularly beautiful, with skin too white.
Soon after, he thought of another question.
“By the way, weren’t you supposed to shoot a classical dance, is dyeing your hair okay?”
“This time, I’m collaborating with another video creator for a modern pop dance, so I dyed my hair on purpose. Plus, for ancient style costumes, we often wear wigs, so it’s really not a big issue.”
Jiang Luoluo had a rare day off to relax at home today.
But when she had nothing to do, her mind tended to wander, making her think of her previous visit to Wen City to rescue Chu Mingcheng, the leisure of catching fish and grilling shrimp in the mountains in the afternoon, and the little awkwardness of meeting his mother in the evening…
Feeling slightly agitated inside, she took several selfies and then sent the one she was most satisfied with to Chu Mingcheng.
Rather than asking whether her hair color looked good, she was actually asking if her mother looks pretty, so hurry up and compliment me.
Seeing the only man she had a good feeling about say she looked so beautiful, Jiang Luoluo’s sense of pleasure surged UP↑↑.
“You also do modern dance? Then I’ll have to take a look when the video is released.”
Chu Mingcheng had watched all of Jiang Luoluo’s dance videos, and from LSP’s point of view, each video was so beautiful, except that the costumes in the historical ones were too conservative, which was a negative mark.
From an appreciative perspective…
Engrossed in their chat, time had unknowingly reached the evening, and Lu Zheqiang came over to invite him out for dinner, so Chu Mingcheng temporarily paused his chat with Jiang Luoluo.
However, he hadn’t mentioned his plan to learn free-diving fishing and then develop a career in Xia City.
Chu Mingcheng was somewhat looking forward to her reaction when he would suddenly show up in Xia City.
“Ah Cheng, I’ll take you to try coconut chicken tonight, a local Qiongzhou specialty that should suit your taste.”
“Sure! I’m actually looking forward to trying the local flavors.”
Chu Mingcheng gladly agreed, planning to repay Lu Zheqiang with a meal after being treated today.
Isn’t that how relationships work? You treat me, I treat you, and it builds up over time. He would surely continue with his three-star and four-star free diving certifications, meaning they would continue to cross paths.
Lu Zheqiang had driven over and took him to a restaurant called Qiongzhou Restaurant.
You could find all kinds of famous Qiongzhou dishes here, especially the coconut-flavored roasted chicken. The aroma of coconut blended perfectly with the roasted chicken flavor, stunning Chu Mingcheng.
After the meal, the two walked around some of the bustling streets of Qiongzhou before heading back since there wasn’t much for two guys to explore.
The first day in Qiongzhou went by quickly, and the next day Chu Mingcheng got up early, ran a big loop, and casually ate some Qiongzhou rice noodles. When he returned, he was holding a coconut milk custard.
Perhaps because he was from the south, he was fairly accustomed to the local cuisine. If he were from the north, he probably would have found the food quite unpalatable.
After taking a bath, it was just before 8am when he arrived at the club’s classroom.
Lu Zheqiang was already there, and after greeting each other, they waited for the other students to arrive.
Soon, the students gradually trickled into the classroom.
Chu Mingcheng noticed there were only eight students including himself, with two men and the rest women, each with decent looks and figures.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Lu Zheqiang stood up and clapped his hands, drawing everyone’s attention.
Then, he had everyone introduce themselves so that the students could get a preliminary understanding of each other.
“Alright, now that everyone is acquainted, let’s dive right into the subject.”
“This morning, our focus will be on practicing the Frenzel technique, an introduction to the equipment, and a safety briefing. In the afternoon, we’ll go to calm waters, that is, the pool, to practice underwater skills.”
“Let’s start with Frenzel.”
“What is Frenzel? It’s about ear pressure balance. As you free-dive deeper, the water pressure increases. The difference in pressure inside and outside the eardrum will cause pain, and that’s when you need to balance the ear pressure.”
“Among our eight students, six female students are only going for the PADI one-star certification, while one male student is aiming for the AIDA one-star.”
“However, if you wish to attempt the two-star certification, you must pass the Frenzel technique assessment.”
