Chapter 133: Chapter 133 An unfair game
Xiao Yike raised her chin and eyebrows as if she was provoking Chu Yuan and Dongfang Lianren!
Chu Yuan had never fished before, so naturally, she would not be interested in this game. On the contrary, Dongfang Lianren was very interested. She threw the hook into the water clumsily and asked with a smile, “Is there any benefit to winning?” She was a typical example of someone who places benefit over everything.
“Benefits?” The little minx’s eyes lit up, and she looked at me suddenly, smiling like a little devil. I seemed to see a pair of bat-like wings growing behind her, “Within one hour, the person who catches the most fish can pick one of the losers and do anything to that person, how is it?”
Dongfang Lianren and Chu Yuan unanimously said in shock, “Anything? !”
“Yes, anything,” the little minx sniggered, “Even if you ask the loser to run naked, they still can’t refuse!”
I immediately voted against it, “No!”
You must be kidding, what if Dongfang little brat wins, and she wants to have a french kiss with my little sister?
“One vote is invalid, this a democratic decision, and the minority must obey the majority.” The little minx was definitely thinking something bad. However, she seemed to be very confident about it, whether it was the result of the vote or the result of the game.
Then I saw she said with an ambiguous smile on her face, “Yuanyuan, little sister Dongfang, how is it? Do you want to participate? You can ask the loser to do anything~ anything~”
She is tempting them! This girl is clearly inciting them to join the game!
Sure enough, Dongfang Lianren glanced at Chu Yuan secretly and said excitedly like a perverted uncle, completely forgetting herself, “Yes! I want to participate!”
Now it is two votes against one! Then we all look at Chu Yuan!
Her vote is as vital as the decision of life and death!
“Yuanyuan, you won’t participate in this kind of boring game, right?” I was not very worried, because Chu Yuan doesn’t know how to fish. According to her arrogant personality, she definitely wouldn’t do something that is without a chance of winning.
“I am in!”
“What? !” I suspected that my ears had a problem.
Chu Yuan didn’t dare to look at me. With a ruddy face, she, Dongfang, and Xiao Yike placed hands on top of each other as a form of agreement. As her eyes revealed firm gleams. she said resolutely, “I will also participate!”
“Okay! Yuanyuan, although we are competitors, I really hope you can win,” the little minx laughed and raised her chin at me proudly, “Uncle, three to one, you have no right to refuse~”
Three to one, it’s really three to one… Why do I feel like the three girls are united to give a hard time? Could it be… They formed a united front, wanting to defeat me by collective strength and let me run naked around the lake?
When did I offend them?
Dongfang Lianren’s eyes looked sinister and vicious, and she covered her mouth and smiled: “Elder Brother Nan, you had a lot of fun last night, right?~, you even threatened me…”
Little minx also pretended to be scared, but she couldn’t conceal the slyness in her eyes, “Yes, uncle, even my dad never talks to me like that before. You scared me yesterday.”
Chu Yuan also had a sly smile on her face, not having her usual cute look at all. Waving her clenched small fists at me, she said excitedly: “Humph, you have been acting very harsh these days. If I win, I will be able to get even with you openly!”
Openly? So you have been thinking about getting even with me secretly? I could not help but break out in a cold sweat, I vaguely saw three little black tails swaying triumphantly behind the three girls’ butts.
Confucius said: Only women and small-minded men are hard to deal with…
Confucius was right. I couldn’t help but think this to myself with tears running down my face.
. . .
“Elder Brother, the bait is too fishy, you help me hang it on the hook!”
“Ah~ Elder Brother Nan, the fish hook hooked on my clothes, please help me to get it off~!”
“Ah, Elder brother, I flung the bait away, hurry up and help me hang another!”
“Oops, the hook is caught in the water plants, Elder Brother Nan, come and help this little girl~!”
“…” Someone was speechless, tired of running back and forth…
“Yes! Got another one~ Uncle, the place you picked is really good, there are so many fish~”
The little minx’s triumphant laugh immediately attracted Chu Yuan and Dongfang’s jealous gazes, and because I was called by these two big laymen back and forth, I watched the fish that had bitten the hook break free again and again.
God damn it, this minx is really crafty. She proposed the competition not because she was so confident in her fishing skills that she could beat me, but because she knew that Chu Yuan and Dongfang would trouble me all the time, so I would not have time to catch the fish at all!
From the very beginning, it seemed that the minx’s victory and my defeat had already been decided. Chu Yuan and Dongfang also realized that they were being used by Xiao Yike. However, they were embarrassed to condemn Xiao Yike for being crafty. Because in that way, they would be admitting that they were as dumb as those fish that bite the bait voluntarily. So, the more anxious they were, the more desperately they asked me to help them…
Unfortunately, the minx still overestimated herself and underestimated me. Her fishing skills were really not good. Several times the fish bit the hook tentatively, but she reeled in too early because she was too anxious, or the fish broke free when she reeled in too fast.
The character of the minx is really doomed to her fishing skills. I remember that my old man once said before that fishing is meaningless if you go fishing just to catch fish. Fish is secondary. What you should be catching is the warm sun, the gentle breeze, the fresh air in the fields…
Now I understood what my old man said at that time. Fishing is actually a pursuit of a state of mind, the biggest gain is that state of mind – Don’t just stare at the hook, or only care about the gains and losses in front of you, you should look far. In fact, besides fish, there are countless things waiting for us to discover…
After all, the little minx is still young, and she was impatient and only concerned about gains and losses. How can she beat me if all she thought was to catch fish?
After solving the problems of Chu Yuan and Dongfang, I finally had the opportunity to touch my fishing rod, and soon, I caught two carps. However, it is not that my fishing skills are superb, but I know how to cheat…
While a few girls didn’t pay attention, I grabbed a handful of bait and threw it into the water…
The things I said about fish like to gather around the bridge piles, grass, and rocks were just me trying to pretend that I was a knowledgeable person. The fish in the artificial lake is raised for the guests to catch. The experience of choosing a fishing position is simply unnecessary here. The reason why I chose here was that I just happened to see a staff member standing on the stone bridge throwing fish food into the water before I came here. In other words, this is a place where fish is often fed, so the fish will naturally gather here.
To put it plainly, this resort is a place for the rich to have fun. For most of the rich, fishing is not for pursuing a state of mind that blends into nature, nor to temper patience in the long and boring wait, nor even meditation or reflection. Their pleasure lies only in how much they have gained, and in further enriching their sense of accomplishment. Therefore, the resort naturally would do their best to help their customers to reach their satisfaction. After all, meeting the needs of customers is the basis of their profitability.
Knowing that, of course, there would be ways to cheat. As long as you have a little fishing skill, it is too easy to win, Xiao Yike, you have really underestimated me!
Twenty minutes into the game, the results: zero scores for Chu Yuan, zero scores for Dongfang, I and Xiao Yike, two fish each, temporarily tied. This result obviously made little minx very anxious. You have to know that, I only cast the hook twice, my efficiency was way better than her.
Just when we were in a fierce battle, I saw Liusu carrying a fishing rod and a folding stool and trotting towards us, followed by Shu Tong, this clumsy woman.
“Nannan, are you serious? How could you leave me alone and have fun just by yourself…”
Have fun? They are having fun, not me! Once I accidentally lose, anything that these three girls would ask me to do would be deadly! How can I have fun? I smiled bitterly and explained: “There are all the teachers from Yuanyuan and Dongfang’s school over that side. Staying with them will only make them feel nervous. Hehe.”
“That’s true,” Liusu put down the folding stool casually and sat down beside me. Seeing we were waiting with a serious expression, all staring at the fish floats in the water, she asked curiously: “What are you doing?”
