Chapter 738: Leaping into the Lake to Catch Fish

~7 min read 1,289 words

A few days later.

Yunsheng, Kunming.

Lake-side Villa.

Liang Shishi was holding her daughter Lin Jingru while fishing.

Sitting in Liang Shishi's arms, Lin Jingru stared with her pair of black grape‑like eyes, unblinking, at the fishing float a few meters away.

Lin Jingru's temperament, like the "quiet" in her name, prefers peace.

Things that adults find impatient, she can endure at her tender age, not so restless.

Suddenly, the float sank a little.

"Moving, it's moving…"

One‑year‑and‑one‑month‑old Lin Jingru pointed at the float and shouted urgently.

Liang Shishi was looking at her phone and didn't notice.

Hearing her daughter's voice, she quickly lifted the rod.

"Whoosh," the fishing line snapped taut, and the rod bent.

After several minutes, Liang Shishi finally slipped a carp weighing over four jin onto the shore and scooped it up with a net.

Seeing the lively, leaping carp, Lin Jingru drooled with hunger.

The reason she loves fishing is simply that she loves eating fish.

She can have braised carp again!

Lin Jingru clapped joyfully, giggling.

The nanny beside her laughed along.

Liang Shishi set the net down and sat on a stool.

Lin Jingru watched the nanny place the big carp into a bucket.

Liang Shishi glanced, smiled, and picked up her phone again.

She was contacting Yang Caiwei, asking about the Enhancement Agent.

Yang Caiwei didn't hide it, saying they still lack two units, can't allocate them yet, everything depends on how Boss Lin arranges it.

Liang Shishi slightly furrowed her brows, looking thoughtful.

A mother can't help but consider her own daughter.

She wondered whether to make a claim this time.

Liang Shishi turned her head again to glance at Lin Jingru.

The daughter is undoubtedly clever, patient since childhood.

If they don't enhance now, who knows how long it will take later.

What if it's two or three years later?

Lin Feng's other children have each become little adults.

Like Lin Shiyi and Lin Chang'e, they can already help dad with tasks.

But Lin Jingru is still an immature child.

Yet if they push for it, might the others be displeased?

While Liang Shishi was conflicted, two silhouettes appeared in her peripheral vision.

Somewhat familiar.

Zai Dingqing glanced, his face showing a complex mix of panic and delight.

His heart suddenly fluttered, he stood up, tried to run, but his legs wouldn't move.

Where to escape?

Seeing the glittering lake, Liang Shishi leapt, "Splash," and plunged into the water.

Lin Jingru and the two nannies who saw it did not panic.

Lin Jingru instead clapped and shouted, "Mom's catching fish!"

Liang Shishi is impatient when fishing. Xinbi Quge

Sometimes, watching her daughter crave fish, yet the fish wouldn't bite for ages,

In a fit of anger, she plunged headfirst into the water and hauled several big fish straight from the lake.

It should be noted that Liang Shishi is an Enhancer; in water she can hold her breath for a long time and her senses are extremely sharp,

Her movement speed is also very fast.

Of course she can't outrun fish, but she stays motionless in the water, waiting for big fish to pass.

"Is that so?"

"Yes! Seeing us is like seeing a ghost."

Lin Xiangdong and Liang Shiyun walked to the lakeside, murmuring.

"May I ask, you two are…"

One of the two nannies asked.

Lin Xiangdong smiled, "We are her brother‑in‑law and sister; Lin Jingru is our granddaughter."

"Uh~"

The two nannies looked stunned.

This generation sounds off!

But the nannies, being somewhat worldly, knew that's how the rich world works, and said no more.

"Let's see how long you can hide!"

Liang Shiyun frowned and shook her head.

Then they stepped forward, holding Lin Jingru in their arms, smiling and said: "Jingru, we meet again!"

"Grandpa, Grandma!"

Lin Jingru obediently called out.

A few days ago at the Sihe Courtyard gathering, Liang Shishi didn't go,

but they had Guo Yanqiu bring Lin Jingru, their daughter, over.

Yesterday Lin Jingru only returned to Kunming with Guo Yanru.

"So obedient!"

Liang Shiyun kissed Lin Jingru on the cheek, smiling as they said.

Lin Jingru said: "Grandpa, Grandma, you previously gave me gifts; today I'll treat you to fish!"

"But..."

"I alone need a big fish; with Grandpa, Grandma, and Mom, four of us, one fish isn't enough!"

"Then let's catch another one! By the way, wait for Mom to come ashore."

Liang Shiyun sat down holding Lin Jingru.

Lin Xiangdong picked up the fishing rod, skillfully baited it, and cast the bait into the water.

Lin Jingru shook her head: "No need to fish, Mom went down to catch fish."

"Does Mom often catch fish?"

Liang Shiyun asked with a smile.

Lin Jingru nodded, "Mm! I like eating fish; Mom has no patience, if she can't catch a fish by fishing she jumps into the lake to grab it."

Saying that, Lin Jingru shrugged, looking helpless.

As for Liang Shiyun's fishing skill, the daughter shows disdain.

Then Liang Shiyun and Lin Xiangdong teased Lin Jingru while speaking.

Until half an hour later, with a "splash" sound.

Liang Shishi finally climbed up from the water not far away.

In her hand she still held a carp weighing four or five catties.

Such a large carp is most suitable for making braised carp.

"Sister, brother-in-law!"

Liang Shishi shook off the water on her body, embarrassedly calling out.

Liang Shiyun wore a helpless expression: "You! Seeing us is like a mouse seeing a cat!"

"This... this..."

Liang Shishi felt guilty for a moment, not knowing how to explain.

As the saying goes, a rabbit doesn't eat the grass beside its burrow.

She gave this burrow-edge grass to Lin Feng to nibble.

The key is that this grass is the precious grass that Lin Xiangdong and Liang Shiyun have nurtured for over twenty years.

"Forget it! Things are already like this, let's just leave it as is!"

Liang Shiyun waved her hand.

"From now on... how should we address each other?"

Liang Shishi asked.

Liang Shiyun said: "Let's each stick to our own!"

In this regard, Liang Shiyun also finds it quite difficult.

The elderly couple also thought about it for a long time, but really there's no way.

"Okay!"

Liang Shishi laughed.

Liang Shiyun glanced at Liang Shishi, furrowed her brows, and said: "Haven't you gone back to bathe and change clothes?"

Liang Shishi hurriedly ran away.

Originally dressed thinly, after going into the water and coming ashore, she looked somewhat unsightly.

Lin Xiangdong has always been keeping his gaze on the float.

Just as Liang Shishi left, Lin Xiangdong picked up the fishing rod.

Unexpectedly, the hook had a dead fish attached, and it was still biting.

"Really unlucky! A dead fish biting..."

Lin Xiangdong shook his head.

Lin Jingru, however, laughed and said: "It's Mom who hung the fish up there! This fish has a mark, its tail was pinched off a piece, Grandpa, take a look, is it?"

Lin Xiangdong looked at the carp that had been pulled up; indeed a piece was missing from its tail.

This was a joke played by Liang Shishi.

Lin Xiangdong gave a wry smile.

Then, together with Liang Shiyun holding Lin Jingru, they walked toward the not-far-away villa.

The pile of things behind them was naturally tidied up by the two maids.

After entering the villa, Lin Xiangdong and Liang Shiyun discovered that Guo Yanqiu had also brought the child Lin Qingxia.

Guo Yanqiu had also just arrived.

Seeing Lin Qingxia, the elderly couple became even happier.

Lin Jingru and Lin Qingxia ran off to the side to play.

The four of them sat in the living room chatting.

Soon they got to talking about the Enhancement for the child.
