With a single sentence, Shi Chui made Shi Tian too afraid to show his face. The two of them played off each other, and Shi Tian felt as if he had been set up by Shi Ye!
Glancing at the group chat, Shi Chui's words had dragged the entire Old Shi Family into the fray. Even the three onlookers were drawn out, discussing what to prepare for their trip to Xisha. Did he dare to say no now? If he had known it would come to this, he should have just agreed with Shi Chui from the start. It was only three times, after all—much easier than making a trip to Xisha!
However, Shi Ye and Shi Chui had escalated the matter to a family gathering level. What could he possibly say? If he opened his mouth, Yun Wan'er would likely create a group chat just to mute him!
In the hotel next door, Li Yunfei and Hu Shuyi were compiling their assessment report on Shi Tian. After spending a day fishing with Shi Tian, how did it go? Was this kid reliable? After reviewing the videos on Li Yunfei's wrist device, Hu Shuyi asked.
Cancel tomorrow's flight; we’ll return to Beijing the day after. First, let Hu Shuyi cancel tomorrow's flight. She had made plans with Shi Tian to go fishing at Luosho River, where they heard there were big fish.
By the end of the day, Li Yunfei had formed a rough understanding of Shi Tian. He dabbled in both indulgence and moral compromise but didn’t fully commit to either.
In just one meal, Cai Mingli had thrown away years of family business to follow him to Sanya. Yet, he had also taught Cai Mingli a skill that would serve as a foundation for his career. Although some tricks were involved, it turned out that Cai Mingli didn’t lose out and was willing to do so.
Would Cai Mingli become completely devoted to Shi Tian after learning this skill? From Li Yunfei’s perspective, Cai Mingli wasn’t foolish; if he made money, would he really abandon such a strong ally in Shi Tian?
Aren't you going back tomorrow? What are you planning to do instead? Upon hearing Li Yunfei ask her to cancel her flight, Hu Shuyi quickly inquired.
Did Li Yunfei discover something? Was there an issue with Shi Tian’s character? If that were the case, she needed to hurry and bring Li Ziyu back to Beijing before things got too deep.
I have plans to fish at Luosho River with Xiao Tian tomorrow; I want another day to assess him properly! Setting down his cup, Li Yunfei said seriously.
Hearing this, Hu Shuyi punched Li Yunfei lightly and gasped for breath. She thought he had discovered some problem!
Are you going there to assess Shi Tian? Or are you just eager to go fishing?
Wait a minute! Isn’t Old Li supposed to be bad at fishing? How did he get hooked after spending just one day fishing with Shi Tian?
Looking at Li Yunfei, Hu Shuyi thought for a moment before saying: I’ll join you tomorrow! You’re unreliable; after just one day you’re already calling him Xiao Tian—those few fish must have won you over!
Hu Shuyi wanted to go, and Li Yunfei was taken aback and firmly refused.
"What are you following me for? You look just like Xiao Yu; won't you give yourself away the moment you show up?"
Li Yunfei was quite satisfied with Shi Tian, and it didn't matter whether Hu Shuyi would give anything away. However, if they went fishing and Hu Shuyi tagged along, would they be able to enjoy it?
Early the next morning, Shi Tian cleaned up the Air Force vehicle and drove to Cai Mingli's shop to critique his cooking skills. They had agreed to meet here with Li Yunfei, and after giving Cai Mingli some pointers, they planned to grab breakfast before heading directly to the Luosho River.
"Brother Fei, there aren't any big fish in the Lancang River; all the big ones are in its tributaries. Once we find a good fishing spot, let's see who can catch the bigger fish!"
Driving on the highway with Li Yunfei, it would take them about an hour to get there.
"Sounds good! Same old rules: whoever loses treats. Tonight, we’ll go to the riverside for some skewers!"
Yesterday afternoon, they had a competition, and to solidify Li Yunfei's interest in fishing, Shi Tian intentionally lost by a small margin. Last night, they took a cruise around the Lancang River and enjoyed the scenery under the night sky.
After seeing the poorly made food provided on the cruise compared to the vibrant street stalls along the riverbank, Li Yunfei had been craving something delicious all night.
As they cast their lines, Li Yunfei no longer needed Shi Tian's help with adjusting his float. However, Shi Tian still needed to perform well when it came to baiting; he wanted Li Yunfei to remember him fondly when he returned to Beijing!
Worried that Li Yunfei might get bored catching only carp, Shi Tian mixed in a few other types of bait to keep things interesting.
"Xiao Tian, I noticed those old men nearby were hardly catching anything. Why are we constantly reeling them in?"
As he lifted his rod and caught a fish weighing about a pound, Li Yunfei casually chatted.
Shi Tian hadn't thought much about it while fishing yesterday, but later that night he realized something was off, keeping him awake for half the night.
"Brother Fei, judging by your expression, you must have some thoughts on this! Why is it that some people can make a fortune while others barely scrape by or even lose money?"
Shi Tian retorted without intending to delve into details; let Li Yunfei guess at it!
Today’s outing with Li Yunfei was simply for the sake of fishing together; he wanted some company while enjoying the experience.
The Air Force wouldn't be coming; he had to keep an eye on Lu Ya. He couldn't let him steal from home.
Lu Ya definitely couldn't come either; he was busy with the Customized Rod. Today he needed to finish setting up his shop quickly so he could ask Shi Tian for his rod later. Once he got his Customized Rod in hand, he could think about other matters.
"There must be some underlying reasons! Is it an equipment issue? A technique issue? Or perhaps a bait issue?" Li Yunfei pondered all night long. He quickly ruled out technique as a factor.
With one hand, both his rod and float were adjusted by Shi Tian; where was the technique in that?
So if technique was out of the equation, it must be related to equipment or bait.
Li Yunfei ultimately believed it was still a matter of bait. After all, when he used his own rod in the morning, the fish were biting quite well. Switching rods didn’t make much of a difference either.
"Brother Fei, fishing is not just a science; it’s also an art!" he exclaimed. "Look up the protection period for fishermen's hands later, and you'll see how mystical this can be."
Shi Tian himself hadn’t prepared any bait spots today; he was just going with the flow, using worms and hoping to catch whatever fish came his way.
