"Truly worthy of being called a Fake Phoenix." Lizzy sneered. "Of course, this test is meant for us to show our determination and patience. Not many people know how to catch a fish and most importantly, not many people have the patience for it. Aren't these two necessary skills that we can bring to college?" Lizzy's voice was extremely loud, making the other youths turn their heads towards her. However, she was not planning on stopping. "Li Yue, don't take this the wrong way. Brother Li came from the prestigious Mo Family. If you really want to be with him, it is best that you show us you can become one of us, even if you don't really have the blood of the rich and influential!"
Li Yue sneered inwardly. On the outside, her face still looks dumb as she stared at Lizzy's face in daze. By now, she already knew that something was wrong with this woman. "Do you— Do you like Mo Li?" she asked. Her question immediately made Lizzy blush.
"We grew up together! I like him as a friend.Of course friends protect each other from sketchy people like you!" Lizzy answered almost immediately while observing Mo Li's reaction. To her disappointment, Mo Li didn't have any trace of reaction. He just stood there as if they weren't talking about him. However, the fact that Mo Li didn't refute her previous words that they grew up together still made her hopeful.
"Oh…" Li Yue nodded. "Then no. I am not betting with you." She turned her back away and started walking away from Lizzy Lu. As a woman, she already knew that Lizzy liked Mo Li. So she walked a few feet away from her, giving the woman a chance to interact with Mo Li. She was hoping that Lizzy would stop pestering her and would just talk to Mo Li instead.
But how could Mo Li allow such a thing to happen? He immediately followed Li Yue and ignored Lizzy who was standing in daze. "Why didn't you make a bet with her?"
"We have canned goods." Li Yue said. Who needs fish when they have canned goods? Li Yue didn't have any plans to join this contest at all. Wasn't that a waste of energy? Moreover, she truly had no idea how to catch a fish! "That Lizzy Lu likes you. In the future… you should say hi to her so she doesn't pester me." She uttered. In response, Mo Li let out a low chuckle.
"If I say hi to everyone who likes me, I would probably have to spend my whole day saying hi to everyone."
Li Yue ignored the other's words. "We need to hide while eating."
"Why?"
"I don't want to catch a fish." With everyone catching a fish at the same time, there was no way that everyone would get a catch. Unless of course, they move to a different location which was highly unlikely. "That Lizzy Lu is also very suspicious." Li Yue suddenly said. She could not help but feel something was wrong with that woman. However, she had no way of knowing what it was. All she had was some sort of bad instinct— something that she also felt when she met Sun Fengmian. "Hey, do you think your step mother is also weird too?"

"Everyone around me is weird." Mo Li answered seriously. Even this rat is weird too. The two maintained their silence until they reached a boulder that was enough to hide two people, the two immediately started eating the canned goods that Mo Li had brought with him while maintaining their silence.
By now, the two seemed to understand each other's temperament and fell into their own thoughts. After a few minutes, they left the boulder and went back to where everyone was standing to watch a show. When they arrived, the people who were catching fishes by the river were still there, trying to use every method that they could think of. Some were using makeshift bows and arrows while some were trying to catch a fish using their hands.
Some of these students were of course trained in martial arts. Therefore, their body was good and energetic. Coupled with the excitement that they felt for this adventure, their voices soon occupied the river. However just as Li Yue had expected, not one of them was able to catch a fish. That was of course with the exception of Li Weiwei and Xia Jin as well as a couple of students who were smart enough to stay away from the group and fish in the different parts of the river.
In the end, some students ate the food that they brought in their bags while some seemed to become Li Weiwei and Xia Jin's best friend and shamelessly asked the couple for the fish that they caught.
"Aren't you jealous?" Mo Li suddenly asked.
"Aren't you being so talkative today?" she countered and drank some water. On the outside, her appearance looked lazy and casual. However, Li Yue's eyes were very vigilant. She had been observing everyone around them, trying to see if someone was planning to attack the young master next to her. After that encounter with Lizzy Lu, Li Yue immediately concluded that Sun Fengmian must have sent that woman to provoke Li Yue. After all, Lizzy immediately mentioned that she and Mo Li were close.
That is proof enough that she was close to Sun Fengmian too.
However, that incident only made Li Yue more resolute to protect this man sitting next to her. She needed to accomplish her quest this time and to do that, Li Yue already convinced herself that being ruthless might be the only way to do that. Speaking of ruthlessness…. She eyed Lizzy who was sitting a couple of meters away from them.
She needed to start with that woman.
