"Seven Colors, let's see if you and Rong Qi can give us some extra food later," Yun Rucheng joked with a smile as he twirled the mahjong tiles.
Cheng Qicai boasted, "Of course, Uncle. Wait for me to catch a fish weighing over ten kilograms to make you grilled fish."
"Haha, we're just waiting for your fish to arrive."
Because the river where they set up the canopy was shallow, they took their fishing gear and went to deeper water.
It's a bit far from Ms. Yun and the others, but there's a forest behind it, so this spot is perfect for fishing in the shade of the trees, without having to fish under the blazing sun.
Cheng Qicai baited her fishing rod and then cast the hook into the water.
After waiting for half an hour, the float did not move at all.
She looked at Gu Rongqi, who was sitting calmly beside her, and said, "I doubt we can catch any fish. I should have known better than to make such a boast."
Gu Rongqi laughed, "It's alright, they should be used to it by now."
Cheng Qicai was stunned and realized that Gu Rongqi was actually laughing at her!
She immediately retorted, "You're on my side. If neither of us says anything, we'll both be criticized."
Gu Rongqi was amused by her mention of "a group," and said, "Okay, I'll take the scolding with you."
Before Gu Rongqi had finished speaking, his fishing float started to move.
He stood up, picked up his fishing rod, and with a flick of his wrist, he caught a crucian carp about four fingers wide.
He unhooked the fish and put it in the bucket next to him.
"Looks like we won't get scolded later." Gu Rongqi raised an eyebrow as he looked at her.
Cheng Qicai, "..."
Why is it that Gu Rong always gets all the good things?
"Sigh..." Cheng Qicai looked at her fishing float, which wasn't moving at all, and sighed, "I feel like you're much luckier than me at everything!"
Fishing, finding money, winning the lottery... Cheng Qicai envied his luck.
"Perhaps it's because of your 'luck'." The emotion in Gu Rongqi's eyes was like the river in front of him, deep and unfathomable.
Although there is an element of flowery language in these words, they are undeniably pleasant to hear!
Cheng Qicai pretended not to understand the sentiment in his words, or rather, she deliberately misinterpreted Gu Rongqi's meaning. She hugged him tightly, her face saying, "Finally caught you."
Her tone was full of accusation, "Well, so that's why I'm so unlucky. Turns out you stole my luck."
"But I belong to you completely."
Gu Rongqi held Cheng Qicai, who was placing all her weight on him, steadily in his arms.
Handsome guys have incredibly sweet words when they talk about love.
Cheng Qicai couldn't help but smile. She looked up at him, her cheeks slightly flushed, her eyes filled with a starlight of dependence, but what she said was, "Gu Rongqi, you have such a thick skin."
They can say such cheesy things without stuttering.
Because they were at a bend in the riverbank, the tall trees concealed their figures and, at the same time, their lewd appearance.
"Mmm." Gu Rongqi lowered his head and lightly rubbed his nose against Cheng Qicai's nose a few times in an ambiguous manner.
That nasal tone, with its seven colors, somehow had a sexy quality to it.
A gentle breeze blew, lifting Cheng Qicai's colorful hair as she ran towards Gu Rongqi, while the rustling of leaves in the forest seemed to urge her on.
Cheng Qicai tilted her head back at a greater angle, and pressed her lips directly onto his.
Gu Rongqi went along with it and deepened the kiss.
The sweetness between their lips and teeth was something Gu Rongqi could kiss without ever getting tired of it.
After the kiss, Cheng Qicai's hazy eyes were filled with even greater dependence, her gaze fixed on his image.
He really liked Cheng Qicai in this state; at this moment, it seemed like she regarded him as her whole world.
Cheng Qicai suddenly remembered something, "Did I forget to tell you? Actually, I also kept the hundred yuan you won!"
Gu Rongqi was taken aback. He hadn't expected this at all; he thought Cheng Qicai had already spent the money.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Cheng Qicai thought he didn't believe her, so she repeated, "It's true, I still have your money at home. I'll find it and show it to you when we get back."
Gu Rongqi tightened his grip on her, and his voice deepened, "Okay."
Out of the corner of her eye, Cheng Qicai saw her fishing float move. She immediately broke free from Gu Rongqi's embrace and hurriedly lifted her fishing rod.
The tender atmosphere was immediately interrupted, and Gu Rongqi's embrace fell short. But this time, he didn't feel empty inside. Instead, he felt like his heart was a sponge soaked in sugar water, swelling and sweet.
Looking at the fish on her hook, a crucian carp even bigger than Gu Rongqi's, Cheng Qicai was instantly overjoyed. It seemed that it didn't matter if her luck came a little late!
Looking at the fish in the bucket, she became smug. "My fish are bigger than yours."
Gu Rongqi praised without reservation, "Truly amazing!"
Cheng Qicai felt even more proud.
The two had been fishing for two hours, and with only these two fish, they felt they had done their job. They picked up their fishing rods and headed back.
Ms. Yun and her group had just finished a round, and they stood up to look at the fish in Cheng Qicai's bucket.
Mr. Cheng saw that there were two. "Oh, not bad. I thought you were going to catch nothing. You actually caught two, and they're not small either."
Gu Rongqi said to them, "The big one is the one that the rainbow catches."
“Yes.” Cheng Qicai was very satisfied with Gu Rongqi’s understanding.
"Impressive!" Yun Rucheng gave a thumbs up. "Okay, I'm tired of playing Qicai too. You play with your mom and the others for a bit."
"good."
Mr. Cheng chimed in, "Xiao Qi, you can cover for me for a bit. I'll take a break and kill the fish while I'm at it."
Cheng Qicai sat down at the table, skillfully shuffling the mahjong tiles and arranging them.
The cool river water washed over my feet, relieving the heat and dryness.
Cheng Qicai was having a bad day, but Gu Rongqi was having an even worse day.
This shouldn't be done, after all, Gu Rongqi knows how to remember cards, unlike her who plays entirely on her own initiative. She thought about it for a moment and secretly looked at Gu Rongqi.
Gu Rongqi noticed her gaze and smiled at her.
The two exchanged a knowing glance.
Cheng Qicai exclaimed in admiration at Gu Rongqi's skill; he let Gu Rongqi pass the cards without leaving a trace.
Ms. Yun urged, "Cheng Qicai, it's your turn to play. What are you two whispering about?"
"Two of bamboo." Cheng Qicai threw out her card.
"Beixiu, the barbecue is almost ready, you can come and eat now," Mr. Cheng called to them from the shore.
Their game was coming to an end, and they packed up the mahjong tiles on the table and moved the empty table to the shore.
Cheng Qicai counted her money. Oh, she didn't need to count her money; she just had a bright red 100-yuan note.
Ms. Yun and Song Luo earned more, 400 and 300 respectively, while Gu Rongqi's earnings were negative.
Cheng Qicai walked over to Gu Rongqi and quietly nudged him: "The water you put in here is something else!"
Gu Rongqi chuckled softly and remained silent.
