The two went home. After arriving home, Zhong Tingyue put away Chu Fang's fishing gear and locked it in the cabinet. Then she gave the bait to the old fisherman downstairs. This series of actions broke Chu Fang's heart.

His source of happiness is gone.

Zhong Tingyue also knew that quitting fishing was not an easy thing, just like quitting smoking and drinking. She downloaded the virtual fishing software on Chu Fang's phone and said, "This thing can also be used for fishing."

"This is different!" Chu Fang shouted, protesting Zhong Tingyue's blockade against him in a loud voice.

Then he clasped his hands together, puffed out his cheeks, and ignored Zhong Tingyue. The latter shrugged helplessly, went to the kitchen to cook dinner, made a few simple dishes, and brought them out to ask, "Is dinner ready?"

"I'm not hungry!"

"what ever."

Chu Fang raised his eyelids and saw Zhong Tingyue sitting at the dining table, eating by herself. He felt extremely wronged.

No, I said I wasn't hungry, so you're really not going to let me eat?

Why don't you ask me a few more questions?

Zhong Tingyue, you are cold-blooded, ruthless, and heartless!

"You really won't eat?"

"I won't eat it!"

Chu Fang ignored Zhong Tingyue all night, fuming and using his 'silent violence' to resist Zhong Tingyue's punishment.

"Whoosh~~~, I'm back!" Late at night, Zhong Rou slid into the living room, struck a very cool pose, and then sensed that something was off about the atmosphere in the house. She asked Chu Fang, "Brother-in-law, what's wrong?"

"Your sister is no good person!"

At this moment, he finally understood his sister-in-law's feelings—the feeling of being oppressed by a cold and heartless woman.

Sad, upset...

Late at night, the bright moonlight slid into the room. Chu Fang opened his eyes and saw Zhong Tingyue sleeping peacefully, like an elf. He then quietly got up, went to the kitchen, and made himself a bowl of noodles.

"Oh dear, I'm starving."

"That woman Zhong Tingyue is so heartless; she actually let me go hungry."

While eating his noodles, Chu Fang pondered a solution: "How can I break through Zhong Tingyue's blockade and go fishing?"

He thought of many ways, such as drugging the woman to sleep for three days and three nights while he fished for three days and three nights, but as soon as the idea came to him, he slapped himself.

Others drug people for beauty, money, or sex, but he drugged them to fish for money.

That's really pathetic!

She even considered learning the Shadow Clone Technique, so one could accompany Zhong Tingyue at work while the other went fishing, but the Shadow Clone Technique didn't exist in this world.

That's difficult.

He either lied about going to work for Founder Group and used the opportunity to fish.

That won't work either.

My job is a joke, that's too fake, it doesn't fit my persona, that woman can see through it at a glance.

After thinking it over and over, Chu Fang still couldn't come up with a solution. He sighed, "Life is hard these days. Chu Fang, you're living a miserable life."

... ...

The next day, Zhong Tingyue pulled Chu Fang to her studio, fearing he might sneak off to go fishing and damage his eyes again. She wanted to keep her fiancé under her watchful eye so she could keep him under control.

Chu Fang lay slumped over the table: "I don't want to work."

“I’m not making you work, you can just play,” Zhong Tingyue said softly. “I’ll have someone upgrade your computer so you can play those big games, which will also help you pass the time.”

To keep Chu Fang from getting bored, Zhong Tingyue came up with many ways to pass the time, including games, playing with him...

Sometimes, arrangements would be made for Chu Fang to meet with clients and take a walk around outside.

Unfortunately, Chu Fang is no longer a child, and these forms of entertainment can no longer satisfy his needs. Now, all he wants is to be a fisherman, casting his line a few times every day, living a life of blissful happiness.

Zhong Tingyue walked out of the office and saw that Chu Fang's workstation was empty. She then asked, "Where did Chu Fang go?"

“Sister Zhong, didn’t you arrange for him to meet with a client?” Jiang Wenzhen replied.

"They should be back on time. Why don't you call the client and ask how it's going?"

Jiang Wenzhen made a phone call to inquire, and then said to Zhong Tingyue, "The client said the gathering ended a long time ago, and Chu Fang left a long time ago. We don't know where Chu Fang is. Did something happen to him on the way?"

Zhong Tingyue frowned, crossed her arms, and left the studio.

... ...

"Hey, Xiao Chu, long time no see."

"Yes, it's been a long time since I've seen you. Have you been kept at bay by your fiancée?"

When they saw Chu Fang reappear carrying his fishing gear, the group of fishermen laughed and teased him.

He fiddled with his fishing rod: "Bullshit! I have a very high status in the family. She wouldn't dare to disagree with me. I'm like a dragon in the sky, how could I be bound by a woman!"

He deliberately ended his social engagements early today, just to save some time to play a few rounds of golf.

Chu Fang had just set up his fishing gear and cast his line when a graceful figure suddenly appeared in his line of sight. Her face was so beautiful, her eyes were calm as still water, and her lips were pressed into a straight line as she quietly looked at him.

Chu Fang was startled and stammered, "Um... Ms. Zhong, do you believe me if I said I didn't mean it?"

Zhong Tingyue crossed her arms and remained silent for about half a minute before replying, "Do as you please."

After saying that, Zhong Tingyue left directly, her beautiful hair fluttering in the air as she strode away, leaving behind a beautiful silhouette.

"Oh ho!"

"I messed it up!"

"Xiao Chu, I'm passing on my years of experience to you. You'd better apologize right now, or you'll be in for a world of hurt with women."

“... ..."

Chu Fang ignored the fishermen's words, quickly packed up his fishing gear, and chased after them, but Zhong Tingyue had already disappeared.

He hurriedly drove back to the studio, only to find the office empty. He asked, "Has Zhong Tingyue returned yet?"

The chubby boy shook his head.

Chu Fang thought for a moment: "He should be at home."

He immediately left the company and headed home. On his way home, he bought a bouquet of flowers, 999 roses, which cost several thousand yuan. He also bought Zhong Tingyue's favorite roast duck.

As Chu Fang entered the Tanhua residential area, carrying flowers in one hand and roast duck in the other, the security guard said, "You little rascal, did you anger Ms. Zhong?"

"How did you know, sir?"

The security guard leaned against the guard booth: "You look like a loser!"

Chu Fang didn't refute, but instead asked, "Grandpa, you're from an old generation, how can you make a girl not angry?"

The security guard gave a peace sign, and Chu Fang took out his phone to take a picture of the old man. The old man angrily said, "Are you asking for a favor by taking a picture of someone? Don't you know what's hidden in my peace sign?"

"You should have said so earlier."

Chu Fang quickly went back to the car, found some cigarettes, and lit one for the old man. The old man took a deep drag of the cigarette, then slowly exhaled, his eyes slightly narrowed, looking extremely content. He then said, "No."

Chu Fang: "Huh?"

The security guard said, "I have no way to stop girls from getting angry."

Watching Chu Fang storm off into the residential area, the security guard scoffed, "Kid, if I knew how to stop girls from getting angry, would I still be in this position?"

Thinking about it, the old man felt a pang of sadness.

Damn it!

My wife is no pushover either!

Chu Fang reached the door, took a deep breath, and went inside, but to his surprise, Zhong Tingyue was not there.

Chu Fang: "..."
