Chapter 77: Helping Her Cheat

Su Ruan held the railings and stared at the water with a dazed look on her face. She could see that there were a lot of fishes swimming around the boat but after waiting for a while, none of the fishes seemed interested in the bait she had thrown two minutes ago.

A chuckle could be heard coming from her side.

Su Ruan turned to the voice and saw that Long Fei was looking at her with a smile on his face. The thought that this man was laughing at her made her blush. She wondered if she was being too silly?

"Miss Su, you need to be a little patient. It would probably be a while before the fish caught your bait."

She had always known that fishing is more of a waiting game. But now that she could see the fish in the clear water, she became impatient. There were many of them swimming around but none of them wanted to take the bait. Why was it?

Su Ruan turned to look at the water again and frown. "How long do you think I should wait?"

"It depends on your luck," Long Fei said. "Sometimes, if you a lucky, you might catch a fish within a few minutes. Sometimes, you might have to wait for a few hours. And sometimes, you might come home empty-handed."

His words made her a little unhappy. Although Su Ruan was not looking forward to this fishing trip, she had a little expectation as well. Especially after she saw the big fishes swimming in the lake water.

She did not want to come home empty-ended.

As if sensing his gaze, Su Ruan turned to Long Fei again. It was then that she realized that he had not cast out his fishing rod.

"Are you not going to cast out your fishing rod as well?"

There was a complicated look on his face when he heard her question. Long Fei was a little worried that once he cast out his fishing rod, the others on the boat might be suffering from low esteem. The moment he cast out, those fishes in the water would fight to take his bait.

"It's fine. I'll keep an eye on you for a while."

Su Ruan shot him a puzzled look. "Didn't you say that it might be a while before I might catch one? President Long, you don't have to keep an eye on me. I'll call you when there's a movement."

The corner of his lips began to twitch.

Just a while ago, this woman had obediently called his name but now, it was reverted back to President Long.

"Long Fei," he corrected her.

Su Ruan stared back at him for a few seconds before she realized what he wanted to tell her. She let out a cough and mumbled. "Long Fei."

The corner of his lips tilted up into a faint smile. Seeing the impatient look on her face, Long Fei turned around and walked at the rear. He crouched down and touched the water as if he was washing his hand.

However, Long Yu Heng saw what he was doing and rolled his eyes.

It seemed that someone was trying to help Su Ruan cheat.

Long Yu Heng was dissatisfied but there was no way that he could say anything about it.

Long Fei returned to Su Ruan's side and glanced at the fishing rod by Su Ruan's side. After a few seconds, the fishing rod jerked.

Su Ruan noticed the movement and began to panic. She turned to Long Fei with an expression screaming for his help.

She has been looking forward to seeing some movement, but now that she had seen it, Su Ruan did not know what she should do.

"You should pick up your fishing rod," Long Fei said. "Otherwise, it might fall into the water."

"Oh!" Su Ruan snapped out of her trance and picked up the fishing rod as instructed. However, the moment she gripped the rod tightly, the fish started to pull hard.

Su Ruan yelped and a trace of panic appeared on her face. The force was too big and she had almost let go of her rod.

"Relax, I'll help you."

Long Fei's voice came from behind her.

Su Ruan turned her head quickly and realized that the man was standing close to her. Her back was leaning on his chest. However, she did not have much time to think about this strange position. At his time, Su Ruan was focusing on the fish that had caught her bait.

"Miss Su, it seemed that you have caught a big fish." Long Fei clasped her hand on the fishing rod. "Hold it tight and don't let go."

On the other side, Ma Yu Xi seemed to notice the commotion and wanted to take a look. However, her movement halted when she saw how Long Fei and her cousin stood close together. Her eyes widened, realizing that this scene almost looked like a back hug.

A while ago, the two of them were still very distant from each other but after a while, they were very close! Isn't this development a little too fast?

Suddenly, Ma Yu XI did not know whether she should step forward or not.

She wanted to join in the fun and give Su Ruan her encouragement but at the same time, she was a little worried that she might ruin this moment.

Su Ruan continued to scream in excitement. Her focus was all on the fishing rod.

A while ago, she had thought that fishing was boring and had promised herself that this was only a one-time thing. But now that she was playing tug of war with the fish, Su Ruan began to think that fishing could give her this excitement.

After working hard for more than five minutes, Su Ruan finally reeled the fish on the boat. Her eyes widened at the size of the fish. Su Ruan did not expect that she would catch a big fish. However, seeing the way the fish was struggling made her pity it for a bit.

"Sister Ruan!" Ma Yu Xi could not hold her excitement. "What great luck! It was your first time and you already caught a big fish."

Long Yu Heng could only laugh when he heard Ma Yu Xi's words. What luck? Someone was helping her cheat, okay?
