Chapter 222 Fishing



"Be careful with the medicine..."

Before Su Huaiyue could finish her cry, Wei Che had already jumped into the water.

The black robe spread out like ink among the green waves, startling the red carp so much that it swung its tail and dived into the deep pool.

Jing Zhiwan looked at the crystal drops of water when he broke through the water, and suddenly remembered that she had heard by chance that he had a leg disease when he was in the capital.

My heart couldn't help but tighten. What if I caught a cold?

The worry on Jing Zhiwan's face did not diminish at all.

The worry on Jing Zhiwan's face did not diminish at all. She did not care about the hem of her skirt that was burned by the soup, and her eyes followed Wei Che's figure in the water closely.

It was not until he emerged from the water, his black robe clinging to his body and water dripping down his hair, that she came to her senses as if awakened from a dream. She quickly took out a handkerchief from her bosom and walked forward a few steps.

Her voice was filled with concern: "Master Wei, please wipe yourself quickly. The lake water is icy cold and you're soaked. What if you catch a cold?"

Wei Che took the handkerchief and wiped his face casually a few times, frowning slightly and said, "It's okay, I'm still strong and won't catch a cold so easily."

As he said this, he handed the handkerchief back to Jing Zhiwan with a hint of alienation in his eyes.

Su Huaiyue also came forward at this time. Looking at Wei Che's wet clothes, a trace of worry flashed in her eyes, but she quickly concealed it. She said softly, "Wei Che, you should change into dry clothes first. Don't catch a cold. It's windy by the lake. Let's go back to the carriage first. After you change your clothes, how about we continue fishing?"

Wei Che nodded, turned around and walked towards the carriage without saying anything else.

Seeing this, Jing Zhiwan hurriedly followed him and said as they walked, "Master Wei, I have some clean clothes. Although they are not your size, they should be fine for emergency use."

Wei Che paused slightly and turned to look at Jing Zhiwan, with a hint of surprise in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure and said lightly: "Thank you, Miss Jing, I'll be very grateful."

Jing Zhiwan showed a hint of joy on her face. She quickly quickened her pace, walked to the carriage, took out a set of clothes from the carriage, and handed it to Wei Che.

Wei Che took the clothes and simply wiped his body in a secluded place next to the carriage and changed into dry clothes.

Su Huaiyue and Wei Yunrou stayed by the lake, cleaning up the messed up fishing gear and snacks.

As Wei Yunrou cleaned up, she couldn't help but complain, "Fishing is supposed to be an elegant activity, but I didn't expect it to become such a mess because of my disturbance. I even caused my sister-in-law's medicine box to fall into the lake. Damn it."

Su Huaiyue patted Wei Yunrou's shoulder gently and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's just an unfortunate coincidence."

Wei Yunrou stuck out her tongue, stopped talking, and just helped clean up silently.

After a while, Wei Che changed his clothes and came back. Jing Zhiwan saw that he seemed to be fine, and she felt a little relieved.

"Master Wei, do you think this dress fits me?" Jing Zhiwan asked with concern.

Wei Che stretched his arms and legs, nodded, and said, "It fits me well. Thank you, Miss Jing."

Seeing that everyone was ready, Su Huaiyue smiled and said, "In that case, let's continue fishing. The scenery is so beautiful today. If we don't catch anything big, wouldn't it be a waste of Miss Jing's painstaking preparations today?"

After hearing this, everyone nodded, picked up their fishing gear again, and walked to the lake.

Wei Che still stood in the same position, skillfully hanging the bait on the hook and throwing it into the lake.

Jing Zhiwan sat aside, her eyes drifting towards Wei Che from time to time, with a thousand thoughts in her mind.

After the ordeal just now, Su Huaiyue and Wei Yunrou became much more cautious. They fiddled with the fishing rods carefully, fearing that anything would go wrong again.

The lake is sparkling and a breeze blows by, bringing coolness.

Everyone sat quietly by the lake, enjoying the peaceful time.

Time passed slowly, and the fish on the lake seemed to be infected by the tranquil atmosphere and took the bait one after another.

Wei Che's fishing rod shook from time to time, and every time he reeled in the rod, he would catch a fat fish.

Seeing this, Jing Zhiwan's eyes were filled with admiration. She quickly stepped forward to help put the fish into the bucket, while praising him: "Master Wei is indeed a good fisherman. This fish seems to be flying towards your hook on its own."

Wei Che smiled faintly and said, "It's just practice makes perfect. If Miss Jing is interested, I can teach you a few tricks."

Jing Zhiwan was delighted and said quickly, "Thank you very much, Master Wei. I have wanted to learn fishing for a long time, but I have never had the opportunity."

Su Huaiyue and Wei Yunrou also gathered around, looking at the increasing number of fish in the bucket, their faces full of surprise.

Su Huaiyue smiled and said, "It seems that we will return with a full load today. After returning, I will make these fish into delicious dishes for everyone to enjoy."

Wei Yunrou clapped her hands and cheered, her eyes full of anticipation.

Jing Zhiwan took the opportunity to sit next to Wei Che and humbly asked him for advice on fishing techniques.

Wei Che did not hide anything and patiently explained to her the essentials of fishing, from how to choose bait, to how to control the strength and angle of casting the rod, to how to observe the movements of the fish, every detail was explained very clearly.

Jing Zhiwan listened with great interest, nodding from time to time to show that she understood.

Under Wei Che's guidance, she gradually mastered the skills of fishing, and her fishing rod began to move.

When she caught a fish for the first time, her face was full of excitement and surprise. She quickly handed the fish to Wei Che and said, "Master Wei, look, I caught a fish too!"

Wei Che took the fish and said with a smile: "Not bad, Miss Jing has a high level of understanding. This fish is well caught."

After hearing this, Jing Zhiwan was even more delighted, and her eyes were full of gratitude and admiration when she looked at Wei Che.

Su Huaiyue and Wei Yunrou also came forward to congratulate them. Everyone was in a happy mood and their laughter echoed on the lake.

As the sun gradually set, the wind on the lake gradually grew stronger.

Everyone looked at the sky and knew it was getting late, so they began to pack up their fishing gear and prepare to return.

As Jing Zhiwan packed up, she said, "Thanks to Master Wei, we were able to catch so many fish today. I'll definitely treat everyone well when I get back."

Wei Che smiled slightly and said, "It's just a small favor, Miss Jing, you don't have to be polite."

Su Huaiyue also smiled and said, "It is indeed thanks to Wei Che today, otherwise our trip would have been in vain."

After everyone packed up their things, they boarded the carriage and prepared to return.

In the carriage, Jing Zhiwan sat next to Wei Che, her eyes full of tenderness.

Su Huaiyue and Wei Yunrou sat opposite each other, talking in low voices with smiles on their faces.

The carriage moved slowly on the official road, and the afterglow of the setting sun added a touch of warmth to the tranquil atmosphere.

Wei Che closed his eyes and rested, enjoying this rare moment of tranquility.

Jing Zhiwan secretly looked at Wei Che's profile and secretly vowed in her heart that she must do everything she can to win his heart.
