Chapter 17 You still have the mood to go fishing...
Chapter 17
Luo Xiaoran was very satisfied with the look in Chu Xingli's eyes when he saw him wearing the hoodie.
The more Chu Xingli's vision went black, the more it proved that Chu Xingli cared about it.
Whether you care about him as a person or what he wears, it doesn't matter.
Chu Xingli's current reaction is enough to make Luo Xiaoran happy.
After washing up and tidying up, the two went downstairs, where the staff had already prepared breakfast for them.
"Judging from this, the director is going to really mess with us all today," Chu Xingli keenly sensed something unusual.
The director chuckled: "Xing Li is really smart. Eat up, today's going to be hard work."
[Haha, what a clever hug!]
[Today's hug is gentle and sweet, a pure and innocent young man.]
When confirming the contract details, Luo Xiaoran had instructed that overly strenuous exercise should not be arranged for the program, so as not to overwhelm Chu Xingli's physical condition.
Because it was a matter of privacy, Luo Xiaoran naturally did not tell the production team the reason behind it.
However, even just the above requirements were enough to make the production team not dare to even think about asking Luo Xiaoran the specific reasons, and obediently and seriously carry them out.
Everyone went to bed early last night and was in good spirits today, chatting and laughing as they finished breakfast.
"Our activity today," the director announced, seeing that everyone had almost finished eating. He gestured for everyone to look at the equipment that the staff were tidying up inside the yard, "is fishing."
Zhou Maidong's eyes lit up instantly.
The director didn't miss his reaction and asked with a smile, "I heard that Teacher Zhou really enjoys fishing, is that right?"
Zhou Maidong is a complete social phobia.
But when it comes to fishing, he becomes very proactive.
Upon hearing the director's question, he immediately stood up: "Can we go fishing today?"
Lu Yunxin rolled her eyes.
[Haha, Sister Lu doesn't want to hold back for even a second longer!]
[Zhou Ge: Finally, I'm in my comfort zone]
[It seems that Ranzi also enjoys fishing; his studio previously posted a photo of him fishing from behind.]
【Oh dear, how did Ranzi get this at such a young age? (in that tone)】
The chief director kept a close eye on the actions of the viewers in the live broadcast room.
Upon noticing someone in the comments section mention that Luo Xiaoran likes fishing, I quickly chimed in, "I heard Xiaoran likes fishing too?"
Luo Xiaoran nodded: "I quite like it."
The director silently celebrated his enormous year-end bonus in his mind for a few seconds, then continued in a serious tone:
"Each couple forms a group. The group that catches the most fish in total will get a good meal tonight. The top three will have a big meal, and the bottom two will get boxed lunches."
Zhao Anyu and Chen Xuanqi have almost resigned themselves to their fate and given up.
Upon hearing the director's words, he instinctively raised his hands and clapped.
The staff distributed the equipment to everyone and led the group up the mountain.
"Why do we have to go up the mountain?" Bao Keming pointed to the fishpond not far from the villa's yard. "Can't we fish there?"
Zhou Maidong rarely spoke up: "You can still catch more fish in a proper fishpond, so it's worth the effort of climbing the mountain."
Since parting ways with Lin Ning and Zhu Ji last night, Chu Xingli has only seen Lin Ning this morning.
During the hike, he went to Lin Ning's side to check on him.
Why do you look so pale again? Didn't you sleep well?
Lin Ning shook her head, hesitated for a moment, glanced at Zhu Ji's retreating figure, and then lowered her gaze dejectedly.
In fact, Chu Xingli was also very curious about the reasons why Lin Ning and Zhu Ji wanted to divorce.
They get along so well most of the time, and there are no insurmountable obstacles between him and Luo Xiaoran, so why would he want a divorce?
The fishpond on the mountain is very large.
Zhou Maidong adjusted his position and sat silently waiting for the fish to bite.
"Zhou Maidong even saved someone while fishing." Lu Yunxin didn't want to fish; she just wanted to chat.
Upon hearing Lu Yunxin's words, Chu Xingli suddenly remembered something and turned to ask, "So the movie star who saved people was Brother Zhou?"
Zhu Ji quickly chimed in, "How did you know?"
“A friend told me this,” Chu Xingli said, automatically omitting the name of the Beast Brothers, “saying that the person who was rescued wanted to jump into the river to commit suicide, but was chased away by the people fishing on the bank. The person didn’t listen and still jumped in. As a result, he got cramps as soon as he entered the water, regretted it on the spot, and started shouting for help. In the end, it was the older brother who was fishing who threw off his fishing rod, jumped into the water, and pulled the person out.”
Lu Yunxin slapped her thigh: "That's right! Zhou Maidong was furious when he got back, saying that the fish were scared away by that person diving into the water."
"Those in the know said that the movie star wouldn't allow them to expose this," Chu Xingli said with a smile. "Brother Zhou, this is a good thing, why wouldn't you want everyone to know?"
Zhou Maidong stared at the water with a serious expression and replied to Chu Xingli, "I'm afraid someone might be lying in wait for me in the future, which would startle the nest again."
Chu Xingli burst into laughter on the small stool, but Luo Xiaoran, who was fishing with one hand, grabbed her back and helped her continue laughing.
[Ranzi's reaction was so quick! It was like he anticipated that the hug would make him burst out laughing.]
[I'm dying of laughter! Hugs are so cute! Zhou Ge is hilarious too, hahaha]
[I'm afraid someone might stake out my nest in the future, which would scare the whole operation away.]
[Ranzi Bro: I ran into my wife again, so happy!]
Bao Keming was not interested in fishing.
In contrast, he prefers to sit with a cigarette in his mouth, randomly grab a member of the production crew, and chat about life.
They have a very despicable and annoying personality.
Chu Xingli had already heard Bao Keming harassing others, so she figured he would definitely bother her later as well, and made preparations accordingly.
"Xingli! How many have you caught?"
Sure enough, before Chu Xingli could even count to five in his mind, Bao Keming quickly walked up behind him and started acting like a jerk.
Fortunately, Chu Xingli didn't have high hopes for his fishing, otherwise Bao Keming would most likely have been kicked into the fishpond by now.
“I’m not good at casting,” Chu Xingli warned him coldly, “If I accidentally get caught on a pig’s snout, I don’t know if I can claim it as a work injury.”
Unable to win an argument, Bao Keming turned and left.
After looking around, he set his sights on Zhou Maidong.
Teasing honest people is his favorite thing to do.
Chu Xingli has been following gossip for many years and has seen Sister Lu's figure in various entertainment news.
He knew all too well how fiery Lu Jie's temper was.
So he simply rested his chin on his hand and watched the spectacle.
Just as Zhou Maidong was about to put away his rod, Bao Keming, who was standing behind him, suddenly patted him on the shoulder: "Hey!"
Zhou Maidong was startled, and his hand trembled violently.
The big fish leaped back into the water with a "whoosh" and disappeared instantly.
"My fish! My fish!" Zhou Maidong was so anxious that he almost fell into the water and went down with the fish.
Seeing this, Lu Yunxin grabbed Zhou Maidong by the back of his collar with one hand to stop him from jumping into the river, and with the other hand grabbed a handful of earthworm-shaped biscuits, which she threw hard at Bao Keming's face.
"roll!"
Bao Keming, who had just eaten a mouthful of earthworm-shaped cookies: "..."
[Hahaha, this is hilarious! Although, Sister Lu's fierce protectiveness of her husband is so cool!]
At this moment, Brother Zhou, who had watched helplessly as his big fish escaped, gently shattered.
[Serves you right for being such a jerk, are you satisfied now?]
[hahaha, Bao Keming, you're really lucky with your food! (doge)]
When people are happy, they are more likely to subconsciously share their joy with others.
Chu Xingli is that kind of person.
Seeing Bao Keming covered in earthworm-shaped cookies, he laughed so hard he slapped Luo Xiaoran's thigh, urging him to watch the spectacle of Bao Keming's misfortune.
The next moment.
Luo Xiaoran's hand trembled, and the big fish that was about to reel in the line was slapped off the hook by Chu Xingli, and it flicked its tail and sailed away.
It left behind ripples that resembled a protest.
Chu Xingli: "..."
Luo Xiaoran: "..."
Zhu Ji, who was fortunate enough to witness the entire story, promptly added insult to injury: "Do you really want Xiao Ran to look at you with eyes full of disappointment?"
Chu Xingli took a deep breath: "I'll jump in and bring you back."
Luo Xiaoran took a deep breath: "No need, I still have to go save you."
This is something you really shouldn't just watch blindly, hugs!
[Haha, my husband lost his fish too!]
[One second before the hug: Hehe. The next second: No hehe]
[My emotions are stable, and I'd like to talk.]
[That's Luo Xiaoran, even if he's emotionally unstable, I still want to talk to him.]
Chu Xingli became as honest as Bao Keming.
However, he wasn't stuffed with earthworm cookies by Luo Xiaoran.
So he wanted to make it up to Luo Xiaoran.
"Hey? I saw a little red fish, I'll go scoop it up." Chu Xingli grabbed the small net and was about to reach out to scoop it up.
Realizing that the pond was a bit dangerous, he turned around and glanced at Luo Xiaoran, only to find that the other party had already reached out his hand to him: "Be careful not to slip, I'll hold you."
Looking at the hand with its distinct knuckles in front of him, Chu Xingli subconsciously wanted to grasp it, but then she had another thought: "...That's too ambiguous. Why don't you hold my belt instead?"
Luo Xiaoran: "..." Isn't this even more ambiguous?
The two still held hands tightly.
Chu Xingli wore glasses today, and her movements were swift and decisive.
Before their hands had even warmed each other, he had already pulled in the net and handed the small fishing net to Luo Xiaoran with a smile: "Here, take it back."
The little red fish hopped and swung its tail.
Clear water droplets splashed onto Chu Xingli's forehead and hair, shimmering in the sunlight.
The young man's eyes were bright and his gaze was lively. Looking at him, he was just like that summer afternoon when he was seventeen.
Luo Xiaoran's eyes were slightly red.
[Waaaaah, baby, you're such a sweet little cake!]
[I'm speechless, Luo Xiaoran, you still have the mood to go fishing?! Kiss him!]
Please don't blame Ranzi, everyone; he's more anxious than anyone else here.
Wait, I finally see it! Hugs has a tongue piercing!!!
[Ahhh, help! Wouldn't it feel amazing when Ranzi kisses him?!]
