Chapter 66 Don’t mess it up
Shen Lai was immersed in the excitement of catching a fish and didn't pay attention to what Pei Jingyan said. He nodded vigorously, "You are the best!"
Pei Jingyan's smile deepened.
Huo Chilin's face suddenly became as gloomy as if thunder was pressing down on him, and his breathing became heavy.
Shen Lai did not deny that Pei Jingyan was her husband.
Pei Jingyan took the fish down and handed it to Shen Lai, "Here."
Shen Lai stretched out his hands to take the fish, "Then I'll take it up and put it away first, so that it won't run away."
Pei Jingyan reached out and rubbed Shen Lai's head, "Well, go ahead."
Shen Lai was stunned for a moment. Looking at Pei Jingyan's calm expression, her cheeks flushed and she muttered softly: "I just did my hair this morning, don't mess it up."
A smile flashed across Pei Jingyan's eyes.
Seeing that there were outsiders present, Shen Lai didn't bother with him and carefully went ashore with the fish in his hands.
Seeing Shen Lai bring an iron bucket, add some sea water, and put the fish in, those who didn't know would think she was raising fish, not eating them.
Pei Jingyan withdrew his gaze and turned around to see Huo Chilin, whose face looked extremely grim. He raised his eyebrows slightly, as if nothing had happened, "Mr. Huo, let's continue."
Huo Chilin breathed heavily as he watched Pei Jingyan continue to catch fish, his every move revealing his skill and ease. Suddenly, a bad thought flashed through his mind.
Huo Chilin came to Pei Jingyan with a harpoon and said coldly, "Boss Pei, I've never caught fish before, so let me learn from you."
Pei Jingyan looked at him deeply and said nothing.
After waiting for a long time, a fish finally swam over. Just as Pei Jingyan was about to take action, Huo Chilin beside him suddenly took the initiative.
Water splashed everywhere, the harpoon in Huo Chilin's hand missed the target, and the fish was scared away.
Seeing Pei Jingyan turn his head to look at him, Huo Chilin explained calmly: "I'm sorry, I didn't expect you to see it too."
Pei Jingyan sneered in an ambiguous manner and continued to catch fish.
However, in the following time, whenever Pei Jingyan took a fancy to a fish, Huo Chilin would follow suit. After struggling for a long time, not only did the two of them fail to catch a single fish, but they scared all the fish away.
Now even the audience in the live broadcast room noticed that something was wrong.
[No, they're catching fish. Why is Huo Chilin always messing around?]
[Not only can he not help, but he also makes things worse. How ridiculous!]
[Boss Pei has a really good temper. If it were me, I would have slapped him in the face a long time ago.]
Huo Chilin doesn't eat himself, so please don't let the other guests go hungry. Can the production team kick him out? I really don't want to see him!!!
Pei Jingyan raised his eyebrows and said, "Mr. Huo, if you have nothing to do, why don't you go and see if there are any crabs under the rocks that you can catch."
Huo Chilin was somewhat dissatisfied with Pei Jingyan's orders and said coldly, "I just don't have much experience. I just need to learn more."
Seeing Huo Chilin refused to leave, Pei Jingyan narrowed his eyes slightly, with a dark look in his eyes.
After a while, another fish swam to their feet.
Huo Chilin stared at Pei Jingyan. Seeing that he was about to attack, he seized the opportunity and planned to get ahead of him.
Just as Huo Chilin was about to make his move, he suddenly felt something tripping him. He lost his balance and fell heavily into the water. Sea water and sand poured into his mouth and nose, and his clothes were instantly soaked.
Pei Jingyan heard the noise and turned around to see Huo Chilin lying in the water in a mess. He raised an eyebrow and asked, "Mr. Huo, why are you so careless?"
Huo Chilin's forehead veins throbbed wildly, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Did you do this on purpose?"
Pei Jingyan remained calm, "What are you doing on purpose?"
At this time, Bai Hansui heard the noise and ran down from the shore. She struggled to help Huo Chilin up and asked worriedly, "Chilin, are you okay?"
Huo Chilin knew clearly that it was Pei Jingyan who did it, but he couldn't say anything.
After all, the camera didn't capture it, so it was useless for him to identify Pei Jingyan alone.
Huo Chilin could only swallow his anger and said stiffly, "It's okay, I accidentally lost my balance and fell."
Bai Hansui looked worried, "Then I'll take you to change clothes first, so you don't catch a cold."
Huo Chilin hummed a serious face and was helped ashore by Bai Hansui.
Shen Lai looked at the direction the two left and asked in confusion: "What's wrong with him?"
Pei Jingyan said lightly: "Maybe he is too weak to stand steadily."
Shen Lai had no suspicion of anything. Huo Chilin's absence would actually cause less trouble for Pei Jingyan.
Although a lot of time was wasted because of Huo Chilin, fortunately Pei Jingyan still caught a few fish before it got completely dark.
At this time, the entire island was shrouded in darkness. Everyone sat around the campfire roasting fish, and the aroma filled the air.
Dai Jingxuan said: "It must be difficult to catch so many fish. Thank you for your hard work."
Bai Hansui took the initiative to answer: "Everyone divides the work and cooperates, it won't be hard."
After saying that, she looked at Huo Chilin and jokingly said, "Chilin accidentally got his clothes wet while fishing just now, but it's worth it as long as we can have dinner for everyone."
For some reason, Shen Lai felt uncomfortable when he heard Bai Hansui stealing Pei Jingyan's credit.
Shen Lai suddenly said, "I remember these fish were caught by Pei Jingyan, right? What does it have to do with Huo Chilin?"
Bai Hansui was stunned.
"If I remember correctly, not only was he of no help, he was also causing trouble." Shen Lai sneered, "If it weren't for Pei Jingyan's quick hands and feet, I guess everyone would have gone hungry tonight."
Being exposed right in front of her, Bai Hansui immediately looked embarrassed.
Huo Chilin's face beside him looked even uglier. "That's because I don't know how."
Shen Lai said calmly: "If you don't know how to do it, just stay aside quietly and don't cause trouble for others."
[Isn't Chen Lai's words a bit too harsh? ]
[Hilarious! Huo Chilin deliberately targeted Pei Jingyan, yet Shen Lai still showed him mercy? I hope you can be this generous when you encounter a teammate as stupid as Huo Chilin in the future.]
[The person above is probably someone as shameless as Huo Chilin, right? If I had a teammate like that, I'd not only scold him, I'd beat him up.]
[Chen Lai is still too respectable. She is so accommodating when talking to her cheating ex-boyfriend and her fake bestie.]
Seeing that Chen Lai actually spoke up for him, Pei Jingyan approached him with amusement and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Did the sun rise from the west today? Someone actually spoke up for me."
Shen Lai coughed lightly and said, "I just saw how hard you worked and I didn't want others to take away your credit."
Pei Jingyan stared at her with deep eyes and said nothing.
Shen Lai felt uncomfortable being stared at by him and quickly changed the subject, "Is the fish grilled? I'm hungry."
After hearing her say this, Pei Jingyan turned his eyes away and turned the grilled fish in front of him.
Shen Lai secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
She didn't know why she was nervous.
After a while, Pei Jingyan handed over the grilled fish and said, "Try it and see how it tastes."
Shen Lai could smell the fragrance from a distance. She took the grilled fish from Pei Jingyan, took a bite, and then her eyes widened in surprise, "Delicious!"
Seeing her eyes sparkling, Pei Jingyan raised his thin lips and asked, "Is it really that delicious?"
Shen Lai thought he didn't believe what he said, so he handed the grilled fish to Pei Jingyan's mouth and said, "If you don't believe me, try it."
Pei Jingyan's gaze fell from Chen Lai's face to her hand. He did not reach out to take it. Instead, he bit the place where she had just bitten according to Chen Lai's action.
