Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Huo Xunzhou fell silent for a long time after hearing Lin Shanchu’s words.
“I see.”
“Then can you forgive Ming Yao?”
“Yes.”
Yun Yi’s voice came from the riverside.
“Shanshan, do you want to catch some fish?”
Miss Jiang was standing next to Yun Yi. She had taken off her shoes and rolled up her pants, looking as if she was going to catch fish with Yun Yi at any time.
“I’ll come right away, ” Lin Shanchu said to Yun Yi after looking at Miss Jiang with interest.
Lin Shanchu averted her gaze and asked Huo Xunzhou excitedly, “Let’s catch some fish, shall we?”
She pushed Huo Xunzhou to the riverside.
Miss Jiang already entered the river. She bent over and happily reached into the river to grab a handful of mud. The more she grabbed, the more energetic she became.
Ming Yao said that there were many men in Capital City.
However, she thought that the women in Capital City had their own unique characteristics.
Miss Jiang looked dignified and gentle, but she was quite frank when it came to catching fish in the river.
“I caught a crab!” Miss Jiang stood up excitedly with a crab in her hand. Since the atmosphere reached this point, Lin Shanchu decided to support them.
bne gave MISS Jlang a mumos up. “Amazing.’
“Come down and have fun,” Miss Jiang said delightfully after being praise.
To be honest, Miss Jiang was pretty.
It was really hard for her to refuse an invitation from a beauty.
Lin Shanchu turned to Huo Xunzhou and said, “I’m going down to catch some fish.”
It was neither an inquiry nor a discussion, but a notice.
It was because she had already started to take off her shoes.
Huo Xunzhou remained silent and just bent down to help her roll up her pants. “Be careful,” he warned Lin Shanchu before she went into the water.
“Got it.” Lin Shanchu stepped into the river without turning back.
Miss Jiang enthusiastically leaned over to Lin Shanchu to share her experience.
“Crabs may be hiding under the rocks in shallow water like this.”
“Really?” Lin Shanchu immediately moved a stone away from her feet after hearing those words.
There really was a mini crab hidden under the rock.
“Ah!” Miss Jiang exclaimed excitedly, “It’s a baby crab!”
Lin Shanchu was struck by her adorable tone.
Some young ladies looked gentle and dignified on the surface, but in fact, they were adorable people who would say “baby crab” secretly. Miss Jiang picked up the mini crab and looked at it carefully. “It’s so small…”
Lin Shanchu thought she would say, “Let’s set it free.”
However, the truth was…
“One bite at a time. It must be delicious, right?” Miss Jiang looked at Lin Shanchu with sparkling eyes, trying to seek her approval.
Lin Shanchu blinked in a daze. She quickly followed Miss Jiang’s train of thought and agreed, “You can deep-fry it. Do you like the crispy texture?”
“I like it!” Miss Jiang nodded excitedly at first, but then she was a little disappointed. After that, she relaxed and said with a smile, “Having high calories is no big deal. I’ll go on a diet for two days after I go home!”
“Diet?”
“Yeah, I want to control my weight. Every time I indulge in eating and drinking, I have to go on a diet to control it.”
As if remembering something, Miss Jiang asked Lin Shanchu, “Don’t you have to control your diet to keep your figure as an actress?”
“I do.”
After receiving Lin Shanchu’s affirmative answer, Miss Jiang seemed to have found a confidant. “It’s really difficult to lose weight and control your diet. Life is too difficult…
Miss Jiang had a spirit of comedy.
Lin Shanchu nodded and echoed, “It’s quite difficult.”
However, she did not seem to have deliberately controlled her diet.
Normally, one had to control their diet to maintain their figure.
No matter how much she ate, her weight and figure remained unchanged.
When she was terminally ill, she could say that she looked fat because she was sick.
But now that she was cured…
It felt like a cheat code.
Could this be the female lead’s aura?
After Miss Jiang put the baby crab into the bucket, she looked more serious and said, “I find you quite easy to get along with.”
“Yes, I am.” She was easy to get along with in the first place. Miss Jiang laughed. “It seems that rumors can’t be trusted.”
Lin Shanchu keenly got wind of the rumors.
‘Who spread rumors about me?”
She put on a straight face and looked like she was ready to fight with the rumormongers at any time, which made Miss Jiang laugh out loud.
“Many people spread rumors about you.”
..Am I the center of the world? Or is their life so boring that they have nothing to do but mess with me?”
Lin Shanchu knew that she had a lot of anti-fans online, but she did not expect that there would be so many idle people in real life trying to spread rumors about her.
Miss Jiang laughed even harder. “You are more interesting than you are rumored to be.”
Lin Shanchu smiled and politely complimented her, “You’re more interesting than you look.”
Miss Jiang had strong execution ability. Shortly afterwards, she and Lin Shanchu caught half a bucket of baby crabs.
After getting ashore, Miss Jiang leaned on her knees and stared at the baby crabs in the bucket with a frown.
“What’s wrong?”
Miss Jiang turned around and asked Lin Shanchu, “How do I deep-fry the crabs?”
Lin Shanchu sized her up for two seconds before she replied, “You don’t know how to cook?”
“It’s not that I don’t know…” Miss Jiang said hesitantly, “I just don’t have the time to learn cooking.”
Lin Shanchu was confused.
What was the difference?
Lin Shanchu had never made deep-fried crabs before, so she searched for the recipe on the Internet. After reading it twice, she started to cook. Miss Jiang watched from the sidelines the entire time.
“Wow!
“It smells so good!
“You really know how to cook!
“You’re so awesome!
“No wonder your fans love you so much…”
Lin Shanchu gradually lost herself in Miss Jiang’s praise.
She gently brushed her hair behind her ear and said, “It’s just deep-frying a fried crab.. ‘
“Cooking is a survival skill, but I don’t know how to cook.” Miss Jiang looked sincere as she said, “That’s why I think you’re very capable.” Lin Shanchu accepted her compliment and spoke, “Have a taste.”
Miss Jiang replied, “Alright.’
In the distance, Li MO stood behind Huo Xunzhou and looked at Lin Shanchu thoughtfully.
“How did Sister-in-law get so close to Miss Jiang so quickly?”
He had known Lin Shanchu for so long, but he had never seen Lin Shanchu accepting anyone on their first meeting.
“It’s fine as long as she’s happy,” Huo Xunzhou said sourly as he watched Lin Shanchu feed Miss Jiang a fried crab.
It did not matter whether he was happy or not.
Anyway, she only cared about whether Miss Jiang liked to eat her fried crabs.
“Big Brother, why are you jealous of a woman?” Li MO was puzzled.
“…How do you know that I am jealous?” Huo Xunzhou glanced at Li MO expressionlessly.
Li MO said, “I heard it with both ears.” Huo Xunzhou was speechless.
On the other side, Lin Shanchu’s phone rang.
When she saw the word “Ming Yao” on the screen, she gradually woke up from her daze.
She almost forgot that she had not done what she promised Ming Yao.
Lin Shanchu glanced at Miss Jiang, who was deep-frying the fried crab until it was crispy, and wondered if she should betray her right away…
