Chapter 35 Ye Chen's Prophecy

My granddaughter is usually such a bright and clever little girl.

And her grades in college are top-notch, how could she be so easily duped by that brat Ye Chen?

Indeed...

Love makes a fool out of anyone.

My granddaughter must be lovesick!

But...

Speaking of which, if anyone truly tricked my granddaughter, it was me.

At this point, Old Liao has realized that he has only himself to blame for this mess.

But what can he do now that things have come to this?

He doesn't mind giving the money to his granddaughter.

The problem is, there's only a bit over two thousand in his bank account.

This little over two thousand is the private savings Old Liao secretly saved up; where is he going to find the other twelve thousand for her?

But if he doesn't give it to her, the truth will soon be out.

Thinking of this, Old Liao couldn't help but glare at Ye Chen in annoyance and embarrassment.

This little rascal, it's his own money, yet he made it look like a favor to his granddaughter.

But there's no helping it, having deceived her, how could he reveal the truth to his granddaughter without losing face?

After much contemplation, Old Liao reluctantly took out his phone and transferred two thousand to his granddaughter first.

Liao Xuexue, receiving only two thousand, frowned slightly and looked at her grandfather with a suspicious expression.

With no private savings left, poor Old Liao could only scratch his head with an awkward smile.

"Er..."

"Xuexue, Teacher Ye did give me fourteen thousand, but that twelve thousand..."

"That twelve thousand was borrowed by an old classmate of mine, I'll get it back from him right away!"

Liao Xuexue looked even more puzzled, with a face full of surprise.

Fortunately, Old Liao quickly borrowed the twelve thousand from his old classmate and transferred it to his granddaughter.

After receiving the money, the girl was overjoyed, happily saying, "Grandpa, I'll hold onto this money for now."

"This is like the first pot of gold I've earned from working; I'll buy you something to eat with it when I get back!"

She had no idea.

That the money was actually her grandfather dipping into his own pockets...

So, after receiving the money, she left contentedly, leaving Old Liao behind sighing with a bitter face.

Sigh!

God damn!

First, I lose my granddaughter, and now the money!

Ye Chen, that kid, is really something else!

...

Before long, Ye Chen saw Liao Xuexue return.

He quickly asked, "Um... has your grandfather given you the money?"

Liao Xuexue nodded, "Yeah, he's already given it to me, thank you, Teacher Ye!"

Ye Chen almost couldn't hold back a laugh, he forcibly suppressed his amusement and said, "Good, then get to work properly."

"If you want to come here after seven days, you can, and if you do well, I'll even give you a raise!"

Old Liao, who was just about to cast his rod, nearly choked on his own saliva upon hearing this.

However, whether it's fishing for Water Snakes or catching Liao Xuexue in the act.

This matter could be considered closed.

Time slowly passed, and the group of anglers around them also entered their "fishing state".

Just as the fishermen here before had said, today the fishing at Jiang City River is indeed excellent.

Every angler's keepnet had its fair share of catches.

Even old man Liao beside them had forgotten the previous hardships.

Yelling "Holy mother!!!" while constantly reeling in fish.

After just an hour, old man Liao had already caught three silver carp weighing seven to eight pounds each.

As for smaller crucian carp, they were too numerous to count.

With nothing else to do, he picked up his keepnet, watching countless fish tumbling inside.

But today's Teacher Ye...

After catching a Water Snake, the fishing float had remained eerily still.

Liao Xuexue sitting nearby was also quite surprised.

Five hundred pounds of bait had been thrown out, most of it already gone. Why couldn't Teacher Ye catch even a single fish?

Wasn't it said that Teacher Ye was a master angler?

And also comparable to a precision athlete.

Although her temperament and looks seemed very naturally dazed, it did not mean she wasn't smart.

Liao Xuexue's IQ and EQ were both exceptionally high.

So, she did not ask Teacher Ye why he hadn't been able to catch any fish.

After all, at this moment, everyone could see that Teacher Ye was not only anxious but also looked frustrated.

The audience in the live stream room was divided into two camps.

One camp was the new audience who had just joined the live stream.

These viewers were as perplexed and clueless as what Liao Xuexue had in mind.

Each one of them was confused, uncomprehending, puzzled...

"What is the streamer doing, why isn't he pulling the rod?"

"How can he pull the rod if he didn't catch any fish?"

"It's been an hour, I see the old men around have caught a dozen fish each, what's up with the streamer?"

"Yeah, it's outrageous, a fishing streamer not fishing, what is he doing?"

"Could this streamer be here for charity, feeding the fish?"

"Looking at the streamer's fishing technique, he seems pretty good. He's casting spells on the riverbank and educating us about fishing terms."

"That's right, and the streamer seems very professional in making bait, mixing so many together, how come there are no fish?"

...

The other camp, naturally, was Teacher Ye Chen's old fans.

Of course, the audience that watched Ye Chen's live stream last night can now be considered part of the old fans.

This group of people didn't feel as clueless as the new audience in the live stream room.

Instantly, the barrage was filled with teasing at Ye Chen, as well as explanations for those new viewers.

"Who told you guys the streamer knew how to fish? Do you know what Teacher Ye's nickname is? The Air Force Commander!"

"Yeah, there are so many fishing streamers out there, but we don't care for that; we just love to see Teacher Ye not catching fish!"

"Let me report to you new viewers about Teacher Ye's performance yesterday. Yesterday, Teacher Ye fished at the Jiang City River from 7 in the morning until 1 o'clock at night, a total of over ten hours, and only caught a stinky old shoe, an urn, a rotten fish, and a corpse..."

"In short, we old fans are telling you, this streamer can catch anything except fish! Just like the snake earlier!"

"We've been waiting for the streamer to catch a fish for a month and a half, how long have you been waiting? Don't rush!"

"Haha, shocked, aren't you? Let me tell you, the Air Force is Teacher Ye's normal state; the moment Teacher Ye catches a fish, I'll unfollow!"

...

As the audience in the live stream room continued to banter and Liao Xuexue was bewildered, suddenly.

The previously confused Ye Chen suddenly twitched the corner of his mouth.

Then, he revealed a confident expression.

Ye Chen spoke to the camera: "I'll tell you, six minutes!"

"Within six minutes, I'll definitely catch a fish!"
