Free Web NovelChapter 463: Chapter 459: Collectively Acknowledging a Big Brother
The man held up the fish, a blatant look of smugness on his face.
The few men watching him gritted their teeth.
They decided they would never bother with this guy again.
Just as they made up their minds, they heard several shouts. "I caught a fish, too!"
What?
Someone else caught a fish?
They had all arrived around the same time, and none of them had caught anything. All it took was watching that little contest to start catching fish?
They couldn’t believe it.
They all whipped their heads around toward the source of the shouts and saw two people who had caught fish at the same time. They were holding up their catches, faces alight with excitement.
’They really caught some?’
The people who had been watching Sun Yecheng’s competition were completely stunned.
Before they could snap out of it, the people around them started gearing up. "Brother Leng’s explanation just now was super detailed. I need to go put it into practice right away."
Now, he finally understood the meaning of the saying, "experience is the best teacher."
Thankfully, this statement snapped one of the bystanders out of his daze, and he immediately reached out and grabbed the man.
"What’s going on? What did you just say?"
The man jutted out his chin.
"Just now, while we were watching Brother Leng fish, he gave us a detailed explanation of fish behavior. Once you master their habits, you can catch them much faster."
"Ah, I can’t talk to you anymore. I’m going to go try it too."
With that, he quickly walked back to his spot to fish.
The remaining seven or eight men exchanged glances, then all turned to Leng Yuan with smiles. "Brother Leng! Brother Leng! We want to learn how to fish too! Can you explain it to us?"
Leng Yuan’s expression remained as cold as ever. But when he nodded, that frosty look instantly seemed to soften in their eyes.
Several men rushed over to Leng Yuan. While continuing to fish, he started explaining, using the fish he caught as an example. The men listened intently.
Those who hadn’t quite memorized it the first time also ran over. In an instant, Chen JianShe was shoved to the side.
Chen JianShe stared at Leng Yuan, who was now swallowed by the crowd, and was furious enough to die.
’What is wrong with these people?’
’The title ’Brother Leng’ is mine to use! Why are all these people just calling him that willy-nilly?’
’Besides, look at your ages! Still calling him ’Brother Leng, Brother Leng.’ Have you no shame? You’re even embarrassing the fish.’
’Even the fish would be speechless watching you.’
Chen JianShe tried to push his way back in to reclaim his status.
But not only did he fail to get in, he ended up dragging someone else out with him.
"Chen JianShe, why did you pull me?"
Chen Jie was furious.
He had wanted to hear Brother Leng share his expertise! But then Chen JianShe had dragged him out.
Chen JianShe didn’t care.
’If I can’t have Brother Leng’s attention, then neither can Chen Jie.’
As for Gu Jiaojiao, she remained seated in her spot.
Whenever anyone got too close to Gu Jiaojiao, Leng Yuan’s dark eyes would instantly flick in their direction, and he would simultaneously stop his explanation.
Under these circumstances, anyone with a brain could see that Leng Yuan was protecting his wife. Whoever dared to bother her could forget about learning any fishing skills.
For a while, no one dared to venture within a meter of Gu Jiaojiao.
After Leng Yuan finished his explanation and sent everyone away, he began to pack up, ready to take Gu Jiaojiao home.
It was cold on the ice, and people couldn’t stand it for too long.
This was especially true for women, who were more susceptible to the cold.
Gu Jiaojiao had also had enough fun and was about to help Leng Yuan pack up their things to go back.
Seeing this, Chen JianShe immediately walked over to help pack. He even spoke with fawning diligence.
"Brother Leng, you help sister-in-law so she doesn’t slip. Just leave this to me. I’ll carry it back for you."
Chen Jie also started packing up, and upon hearing this, he wanted to help carry their things back too.
But Chen JianShe gave him no such opportunity.
"Hey, Chen Jie! Your stuff is still lying over there! Don’t you want it anymore?"
