It was a little after five in the morning, just as dawn was breaking.
The sky was still dim and he was half asleep. He rubbed his eyes and saw a figure pacing back and forth in front of the door, which startled him.
In addition, the morning sea breeze was a bit damp and cool, and a chill suddenly ran from the soles of my feet to the top of my head, making all the hairs on my body stand on end.
Upon closer inspection.
It's Mao Wang!
He cursed, "You bastard, what are you doing loitering around my door so early in the morning? Trying to mess with me?"
"No, no, I said I have something to tell you." Mao Wang said as he walked over, a somewhat stiff smile on his face.
Wu An's mind was now clear, and he immediately realized why Mao Wang had come to him.
He's been so busy these past few days that he'd almost forgotten about it.
One is willing to hit, and the other is willing to be hit.
Chen Long wanted revenge, and Shen Fang begged to be the one to be retaliated against; these two were practically together.
It's hard to imagine something not happening.
However, it's quite simple for him to resolve this matter; he just needs to ignore it.
He shook his head: "I won't listen, I won't listen."
"..." Mao Wang said sullenly, "Wu An, what I'm about to say is very important."
"I won't listen, I won't listen, you're just a turtle chanting scriptures."
"Wu An, I've been waiting for you here all night." Mao Wang scratched his hair and shouted, "Look how wet my hair is!"
Wu An heard him say that.
I couldn't help but sneer.
They really went all out to get him.
Needless to say, it was Shen Fang who requested it.
He had originally wanted to advise Mao Wang to stop being such a sycophant, but seeing this, he gave up and decided it was pointless.
He shook his head: "If that's what you're saying, I'm even less willing to listen."
"Get out of here right now."
"Don't touch me."
Mao Wang was dumbfounded.
What should we do?
He came under strict orders.
If he fails to complete the task, Shen Fang's disappointment will be far more than just a matter of being disappointed in him.
In Shen Fang's words, he now shoulders the responsibility for Shen Fang's happiness for the rest of her life.
Such a heavy burden rests on his shoulders!
He has to do it.
For Shen Fang!
He knew that the fishing season was opening today, and Wu An, having a fishing boat, would definitely be going out to sea.
Last night, he was already in bed, but he couldn't fall asleep no matter how much he tossed and turned, and the images of Shen Fang and Wu An kept flashing through his mind.
In order not to delay things, he simply got up and went to Wu An's house to guard it in the early morning.
A simp's perseverance is immense; otherwise, they couldn't keep licking one person's boots for so long.
He lived up to expectations and waited from dawn until now, finally seeing Wu An.
He was moved by his own words. If Shen Fang knew, she would surely be moved too.
Wu An will surely be impressed by his own perseverance.
But Wu An dealt him a heavy blow.
His perseverance was worthless in Wu An's eyes.
Wu An fetched water to wash up.
Mao Wang followed closely behind and said, "Aren't you even a little curious about what I've been waiting for you to tell me?"
Wu An shook his head.
"Even if you're not curious, I'm going to tell you!" Mao Wang said urgently, "It's about Chen Long and Shen Fang, you..."
Before he could finish speaking, Wu An poured a basin of cold water on his face.
Mao Wang coughed repeatedly, choked by the fumes.
Wu An said coldly, "You keep going on and on with me. Next time, I won't let you drink my wash water."
"This iron basin will be smashed directly on your head."
Do you believe it or not?
Mao Wang took two steps back; he trusted him too much.
"roll!"
Wu An waved his hand, turned around, closed the doors and windows, and headed straight for the dock.
Mao Wang was unwilling to give up and wanted to follow, but Wu An suddenly turned around and kicked him.
Mao Wang let out a miserable cry and said pitifully, "Why did you kick me?"
"Today is the opening of the fishing season, it's a good day, I don't want to see blood, don't force me."
Wu An left after uttering those harsh words.
Even if he actually kicked Mao Wang and seriously injured him, he wouldn't think it was a big deal, since Mao Wang came here to scheme against him.
The main reason is that I don't want to get entangled with Mao Wang; that guy is hopeless.
We arrived at the dock.
There were only a few fishing boats left moored. Someone greeted him, and he learned that those few fishing boats never went out to sea.
"Has Ah An eaten?"
Good morning, I haven't eaten yet.
"It's still early. Others went out to sea earlier and are already working in the area."
"Ah An, you're not enthusiastic at all?"
"Setting out to sea at this hour might attract gossip, but don't worry, if anyone does, I'll yell at them."
"Damn, that makes you look good."
"Ah An, the fishing season has started, what preparations have you made?"
Everyone was very enthusiastic along the way.
Wu An responded to each person, making sure no one was left out, and addressed them all appropriately, leaving no room for criticism.
Wu An didn't hide anything and said that he had prepared shrimp traps, crab traps, and longline fishing.
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.
Going out to sea to fish is like playing around.
They would have started criticizing anyone else, but they really didn't dare to say anything to Wu An.
It would be upsetting to be proven wrong.
Old Xie was there too.
When Wu An saw him, he said with a smile, "Good morning, Lao Xie."
Old Xie nodded with a smile.
No one said much; everyone understood.
Aqing and Mai Hangyu have already arrived.
Old Mai didn't come along.
Since the fishing season opened today, it was impossible to go fishing, so he didn't go with them.
Wu An was invited, but it wasn't accepted.
And then he'd have to work as free labor; Old Mike is shrewd.
Mai Hangyu brought back a lot of breakfast from town, but he hadn't touched it yet when he got on the boat.
"Why are you waiting for me? You guys eat first."
"It cools down very quickly once it's opened."
We're not that hungry yet.
"It tastes better when we eat together."
After a good breakfast, his father, brother, and sister-in-law arrived and watched him complete the ceremony before disembarking.
Wu An waved to them.
Then the boat set sail, and with a rumbling sound, the fishing boat slowly started moving.
The fishing boat grew smaller and smaller until it disappeared from sight.
Wu Yingwei lit another cigarette and said, "Alright, stop looking. It's not like it's our first time at sea. We'll be back tonight."
Wu Ping added, "It's calm here, no need to worry, it seems like nothing will happen."
Mei Yueqin found it amusing; these two were saying these things, but in reality, they were worried.
These words were meant to comfort themselves.
She didn't point it out.
As they walked into the village, someone greeted them, "Where have you been so early in the morning?"
"Send Ah An out to sea."
"Oh, right, the fishing season opens today. I heard that Chen Gui was the one who reported A'an before. Is that true?"
"Who told you that?"
"I heard it from someone last night."
"We don't know either."
Mei Yueqin gave a perfunctory reply, secretly wondering to herself how this matter had spread so suddenly.
When they arrived at her doorstep, Sister Duan stopped her and told her about it.
