Chapter 134 Talent

Pei Wu took the medicine and was enveloped by gentle pheromones all night. When he woke up the next morning, although he still had a sore throat and dizziness, he was not too uncomfortable overall. He wanted to go out with the fishermen to take a look, but Lu Xiwen unilaterally rejected his request.

Fortunately, the rainstorm came and went quickly, and the sun shone brightly again around noon.

The sea returned to calm. Pei Wu, dressed warmly, wrapped himself in Lu Xiwen's coat and urged him to hurry up and go fishing.

"You know how to fish, right?" Pei Wu asked.

"Is this question even relevant?" Lu Xi asked, casting his line. "Is there anything I can't do?"

Pei Wu: "..."

Pei Wu sat down on a small chair nearby, the sea breeze blowing in her face carrying a warm and refreshing scent.

Not far from them, an old fisherman was also fishing.

As a result, three people had already come up, but Lu Xiwen had been holding back.

"Don't panic," Lu Xi said. "The big fish are all behind us."

The old fisherman seemed to chuckle softly, and Pei Wu suggested, "Why don't you go and learn from their experience?"

After hesitating for a moment, Lu Xiwen actually took his fishing rod and went over.

Pei Wu squinted comfortably, and after coughing twice, he suddenly saw a bright spot appear on the sea.

It wasn't light reflecting off the surface; the spot grew brighter and closer. Pei Wu stared intently for a long time before confirming that it was the windshield of the yacht.

Pei Wu stood up.

Lu Xiwen also noticed this and looked up.

Hi~~~

The other person's voice drifted from afar, but was disturbed by the wind and couldn't be recognized at first.

As the yacht drew closer, Pei Wu clearly saw Chu Lin, who was gripping the steering wheel with one hand and waving it vigorously with the other. Behind him sat Guan Yan, whose expression was clearly grim.

"What are you doing..." Lu Xiwen was halfway through his sentence when he suddenly realized that Chu Lin showed no sign of slowing down.

"The engine is broken! Get out of the way!!!" Chu Lin's voice was clear.

The old fisherman didn't need Lu Xiwen to say anything; he just got up and left. Lu Xiwen threw down his fishing rod and ran to safety with Pei Wu immediately. Less than half a minute later, Chu Lin drove the yacht at high speed onto the shore, kicking up a large amount of sand. The engine was covered by mud and sand in a few seconds. A fan-shaped barrier was smashed in front of the yacht, and a long shallow crater was dragged behind it. Finally, it crashed into a ram's horn tree with great force.

Squeak—

The ram's horn tree swayed heavily, then broke off where it was attached to the yacht, crashing to the ground and dying in front of everyone.

The moment the yacht crashed ashore, Chu Lin grabbed Guan Yan and then leaped high into the air.

He seemed to have an obsession with keeping Guan Yan clean, and he managed to prevent any sand or gravel from splashing onto him.

It then landed steadily.

Chu Lin breathed a sigh of relief, then looked down at Guan Yan and smiled, "See, I told you, with me here, it's alright. Even without a yacht, I can still get you ashore." After saying that, he looked up and met Lu Xiwen's expressionless face.

"You two bumped into my tree while you were dating?" Lu Xiwen sneered. "Do you know how long it takes for such a thick ram's horn tree to grow?"

Guan Yan immediately reassured her: "I'll make up for it. When you get married, I'll cover all the drinks."

Lu Xiwen: "That's more like it."

Pei Wu strode forward: "Why did you come by yacht?"

Guan Yan immediately facepalmed: "I just bought it yesterday. Chu Lin was interested and suddenly had the idea to ride this thing. We set off at seven in the morning and only just arrived. If it weren't for the pheromone barrier this person provided, I would have been blown into a dried-up corpse, you know that?"

Pei Wu chuckled softly.

Lu Xiwen: "What happened to the engine?"

"We encountered a school of fish," Guan Yan said. "This is what happened after we ran into them."

Lu Xiwen looked at Chu Lin and said, "You're quite a talent too."

Guan Yan: "Actually, it was quite fun. We even watched a group of killer whales hunting along the way."

Lu Xiwen: "..."

The workers on the island happened to be free, and soon came up to inspect the yacht. They told Lu Xi that it could be repaired.

Lu Xiwen told them to handle it themselves, and then took Guan Yan and Chu Lin to visit his wooden house.

Guan Yan knew Lu Xiwen's current behavior and was quite supportive, frequently exclaiming "Ah!", "Beautiful!", "Exquisite craftsmanship!", and even seeing the peacock tail behind Lu Xiwen suddenly spread out. Guan Yan found it amusing and teased Lu Xiwen for a while longer.

Pei Wu and Chu Lin lagged behind.

"I heard your private tutor gave you another test a few days ago?" Pei Wu asked casually.

Chu Lin immediately straightened his back and stood up straight.

"Ah, yes."

Pei Wu held out her hand: "Let me see your report card."

Chu Lin: "Who carries this thing around with them?"

“I’m talking about the photos.” Pei Wu wasn’t buying it: “Don’t tell me you don’t have them. If you don’t like it, I’ll ask Guan Yan for them.”

"Yes, yes, yes." Chu Lin still respects his teachers quite a bit; Pei Wu had taught him for a couple of months.

Chu Lin showed Pei Wu a screenshot on his phone. Pei Wu took it and glanced at it. He was immediately startled by a certain number, and after taking a breath of cold air, he coughed violently on the spot.

Chu Lin exclaimed "Holy crap!" "No, no, no, Pei Wu, I'll try harder next time, please don't do this."

Pei Wu waved his hand.

Lu Xiwen's expression changed, and he strode over.

Chu Lin quickly moved to a safe location.

After clearing the itch in her throat, Pei Wu eagerly handed Lu Xiwen her phone before he could speak: "Physics 113, Chemistry four points short of full marks!" Pei Wu's voice, which had been hoarse, rose even higher as she said to herself, "There's a reason for such high scores, Guan Yan. Shouldn't you frame such good results?"

Guan Yan: "..."

Lu Xiwen glanced at Chu Lin with a confused expression.

Chu Lin relaxed immediately when he heard that it wasn't a reprimand. "I've said before that as long as I want to learn, there's nothing I can't learn."

"If you don't pass the exam on time, I'll turn you into a specimen," Lu Xiwen retorted.

Chu Lin retrieved her phone and happily returned to Guan Yan's side.

Guan Yan couldn't help but whisper, "What are you laughing at?"

Chu Lin paused for a moment before saying, "I've noticed that Pei Wu and the others don't mind me at all."

"What do you dislike about me?"

"You're surrounded by top students and rich kids, while I'm the only one with no connections struggling with adult college entrance exams..."

“This is not something for you to consider.” Guan Yan interrupted him somewhat sternly: “Besides, as I’ve told you before, everyone starts from a different point in time. I’m already very happy that you’ve taken any action.”

Chu Lin would never tire of hearing this a hundred times.

Surrounded by towering trees, he took advantage of the time while Lu Xiwen and Pei Wu were walking ahead to pull Guan Yan behind a thick tree.

Guan Yan exclaimed in surprise, "You did..."

He was kissed before he could finish speaking.

"You're so nice." Chu Lin wasn't very well-educated, and even though her heart was fluttering, all she could manage to say was a cloying "You're so nice."

Guan Yan gently pushed him away, "Walk properly!"

Lu Xiwen scratched his ear, sometimes feeling quite helpless about his superhuman hearing.
