My Arms Can Turn into Blades

Chapter 587: Chapter 58: Xia Yue

"..."

Xia Panqiu noticed Chen Lusi’s gaze, paused for a moment, then seemed to think of something. She slightly turned her head, using her chic short hair to cover her face, "You have to admit I can wear it too, but only in this appearance..."

"I didn’t mean that."

Chen Lusi realized and was about to explain.

"...My hand is the scale! My fish is clearly heavier than yours by four ounces! Undoubtedly!"

"Then you’ve used Heart Sound Reflection on the fish."

"What the heck! Listen to what you’re saying? You use Heart Sound Reflection on a fish? Show me!"

"Then why does your fish look dazed and confused?"

"What the heck! Aren’t all fish like that? Ever heard of dead fish eyes? Xia Yue, are you going to die if you admit someone is better than you? I can’t beat you in fighting, can’t my fishing skills be better?"

"I’m not denying... but why does my fish look so clear?"

"What clear! Yours is clearly dead! Look closely! Completely dead!!"

"..."

Xia Yue and Wu You each carried a sea fish, arguing loudly as they walked over.

Chen Lusi, Si Yujie, and Xia Panqiu couldn’t help but look over.

As they reached the temporary table, Wu You immediately lifted his fish, boasting, "Look! I caught a big fish, four ounces heavier than Xia Yue’s!"

Xia Yue smiled beside him and interrupted, insisting, "Caught using Heart Sound Reflection."

"Hey! You’re such a sore loser!"

Wu You, feeling deeply insulted, lifted his fish high with urgency, almost swinging it into Xia Panqiu’s face, "Look! Everyone judge! How could I have used Heart Sound Reflection to fish? I did it fair and square!"

"..."

It was dead silent.

Xia Panqiu rolled her eyes disdainfully.

Si Yujie did the same.

Even the little girl put down her tiptoes and secretly rolled her eyes at them.

No one paid any attention to him.

"Hey! Say something!"

Wu You, frustrated that everyone had their heads down, busy with their own tasks, yearned intensely for acknowledgment.

Eventually.

The little girl, unable to bear it, sighed and muttered, "Uncle Wu You, Uncle Xia Yue, maybe you should just go back to fishing... Feels the same with or without you. We might be better off without you..."

Wu You: "..."

...

In the end.

Wu You, teased by the little girl, took his fish and went to grumble on the side.

Xia Yue didn’t leave, confidently tossing his fish to his niece and starting to help out.

Soon, the group set up the grill.

Wu You finally recovered, handled his fish, and rejoined everyone, occasionally glancing at the little girl, sighing and muttering strange comments like ’might grow up crooked.’

The air was filled with a happy atmosphere.

As the marinated lamb met the charcoal, sizzling with fat, the aroma of meat began to waft.

Wu You finally regained some confidence.

Watching the little girl who just teased him, taking over from Chen Lusi to turn the skewers, he tried to restore his image, "Xiaoyan... Uncle Wu You isn’t just good at fishing, my grilling skills are also top notch. Watch me show you a special trick."

The little girl nodded, scanning around, enjoying the lightness of the beach, watching her mom Si Yujie and Chen Lusi chatting leisurely, Xia Yue and Xia Panqiu bickering over how to handle the fish — such a harmonious scene. She gently stood on her tiptoes, then suddenly turned her head to look at Wu You, "Uncle Wu You, I know you’re amazing."

Wu You paused, exhaling in relief, "You’ve finally noticed..."

The little girl added, "Though clearly not as good as Uncle Xia Yue and Brother Chen Lusi, and you usually seem a bit silly."

Wu You: "..."

The little girl gave him a bright smile, "But I like you all... Mom, Brother Chen Lusi, Uncle Xia Yue, Sister Panqiu, and of course, the not-so-useful Uncle Wu You."

"..."

Wu You, at a loss, unsure whether to be thankful or glare...could only sulkily continue fiddling with the skewers. freewebnoveℓ.com

On the other side.

Chen Lusi also took a break, observing the busy group, silently.

Actually, for him, this kind of experience...was quite rare.

Besides returning to his hometown for ancestral rituals, he really hadn’t had similar experiences.

And compared to the formulaic ancestral rites...this moment obviously allowed him to relax more.

Honestly.

He really liked this scene. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm

"..."

At this moment.

Xia Yue seemed to notice Chen Lusi’s look, tossed the fish to his niece, then clapped his hands and approached Chen Lusi, smiling, "What’s on your mind?"

"Nothing, just feels like a rare experience."

Chen Lusi shook his head, gazing at the beautiful scene in the distance, sniffing the aroma of the grilled meat, listening to the waves and conversations, and softly said, "Feels good."

"Right?"

Xia Yue also glanced back, then laughed, "I also really like this scene, feels like all worries can be forgotten..."

Chen Lusi nodded, "Yeah."

Xia Yue joked, "No wonder there are so many family heroes."

Chen Lusi: "..."

"Actually, each of these people has their flaws."

Xia Yue, noticing the peculiar expression on Chen Lusi’s face, couldn’t help but chuckle again. Turning back to look at everyone, he softly said, "There’s no need to mention my niece. Teenage moods can be as unpredictable as the weather, mostly cloudy with occasional rain."
