“I am not a kid.” Meng Yuran frowned and asked unhappily, “What kind of a bet?”
“A bet with you and Mr. Gu… of course, Miss Lin is also welcome to join us. That the number of fish that I caught today will be more than all of yours combined.”
The boy looked at him coldly, as though in contempt.
Everyone could brag. This man must not know how mighty his grandpa was at fishing!
He had seen how many fish his grandpa had been bringing back with him every day. He was starting to get sick of having so much fish!
His grandpa was so good at it he even had to borrow his buddy’s bucket a few times just to bring home all the fish that he had caught!
“Sure!”
A man so arrogant must be taught a lesson.
Lin Yiyi, “……”
Just what was going on between you two eh? What’s up with that passion and fireworks between the two of you and completely ignoring her?
“Alright, you two go. I’ll stay and barbeque the fish for everyone.”
Perhaps it was just her imagination, but she didn’t want to become the innocent bystander between those two.
Lu Xun smiled at the boy while exuding tremendous calmness backed by confidence.
The boy, too, snickered as he stared at him, chalked full of confidence and certainty.
Hearing about the bet, all the other uncles gave way to the two of them.
Yes, they might all be older gentlemen, but they were also still very competitive. To them, it was only natural to compete over who could catch more fish.With both the young man and the boy being quite attractive, just looking at them was in and off itself a pleasure.
Gu Chengyi’s forehead throbbed after learning about the bet between Meng Yuran and Xiao Lu.
He had a bad feeling all over again.
“Little Yuran, since when have you learned how to fish?”
Mr. Gu asked his own grandson.
Meng Yuran shook his head calmly. “I don’t know how to fish. But no worries; grandpa is so mighty and you will have my help on top of that. We can’t lose going against him 2 to 1.”
Fishing wasn’t like any other competition. Exactly how stupid was that guy who’d bet against two people by himself?
What a waste of that smart-looking face?
Gu Chengyi, “……”
Whatever floats your boat.
Mr. Gu sighed, handed his grandson a fishing pole, showed him a few simple techniques before he added, a little concerned, “When you see movements with the bobber, don’t try to pull it out. Come and get me, okay?”
Meng Yuran nodded in acknowledgement.
Knowing was one thing. This was still the boy’s first time fishing.
As a newbie who had just started fishing, it was only normal that he was clueless about what was going on.
Sometimes he was oblivious about it when the bait was completely eaten by the fish. He just continued to sit there until Mr. Gu noticed that something was off.
Other times when the bobber was bobbed, he was so anxious he didn’t even try to call out to his grandpa and just tried to pull on the fishing pole himself…. Of course the fish got away.
Finally, he had gotten no fish the entire afternoon.
The boy, who wasn’t too happy, tossed away the fishing pole and went over to look into his grandpa’s bucket.
Meng Yuran, “……”
His grandpa did better than him for sure.
There were two fish the size of a palm and one the size of a thumb…
Did you get the entire family of three, grandpa?
Such a neat group of two large ones and one small one…
