Chapter 885 Competition
On the bank of the Huishui River, there is a small river created by mining and excavation. It connects to the main river channel, but it does not flow along with the river water. It is rather calm.
Nearby, a middle-aged man was fishing. Like the water in the stream, the old monk sat still, as if he was not disturbed by the noise here. That was the patience that only belongs to fishermen.
A fishing rod and a pack of cigarettes can last forever.
The young man, on the other hand, didn't have that kind of patience. Li Qingyang's good mood was instantly ruined. She replied coldly, "Yao Yiyao!"
When Li Qingyang was in elementary school, she learned that her grandfather was the director's Chinese teacher. In class, he openly praised her for her good name. As the Book of Songs says, "There is a beautiful person, clear and graceful," so she must be a gentle and lively beauty when she grows up.
After hearing this, Li Qingyang, a primary school student, was overjoyed. From then on, he spoke in a soft voice, without any affectation, and vowed to be a gentle and lively girl.
Well, if it weren't for the famous 'Clear Shampoo', she might have become a gentle girl...
Li Qingyang hated being called by her nickname the most in her life. In her opinion, Yao Yiyao's behavior was undoubtedly a signal of provocation!
Yao Yiyao was not afraid at all and fought back fiercely: "Why are you calling me sister?"
Li Qingyang suddenly smiled, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she blinked: "I was free today, so I was planning to go fishing by the river. Who would have thought that there would be a rocking car here!"
Her hand came out of her pocket, holding a coin between her thumb and index finger. "Open now?"
Yao Yiyao's expression immediately turned into resentful.
Jiang Ning found it interesting. The two girls were quarreling like primary school students, seizing each other's weaknesses and attacking them. It was very childish.
However, when I think of the elections in later generations, which were arguably the world's top stage, people would still insult each other and focus on each other's shortcomings. Perhaps the so-called advanced human beings are essentially like this.
Compared to Jiang Ning's staying out of the matter, Li Han, who came to the river to fish with Li Qingyang, immediately tried to smooth things over: "Sister Qing, Yaoyao, Yuzhou is so big, meeting by chance is fate, everyone, don't be so angry, sit down and fish properly!"
At the same time, Li Han's gaze inadvertently passed over Jiang Ning who was leaning against the poplar tree, and a trace of nervousness flashed across his face.
The boy in the black windbreaker was very handsome and had an elegant temperament. Li Han had to admit that he could rival him when he looked in the mirror after washing his face and hair.
But he didn't wash his hair today!
"Who is he? Why is Yao Yiyao with him?" Li Han became alert.
Li Han changed the subject while asking, "Yaoyao, who is he? Who are you?"
After saying this, he anxiously waited for Yao Yiyao's reply.
"Jiang Ning, my friend." Yao Yiyao looked indifferent. She felt annoyed when she saw Li Han and was filled with physical disgust.
Li Han's family works in the State Grid system. In the past, Yao's mother urged her father to make friends and try to get a project.
Yao Haikuo was very active, treating everyone to meals and giving gifts, and this happened many times. What Yao Yiyao remembers most clearly was that one time at 10 o'clock in the evening, her father was suddenly called away by a phone call, and when he came back it was already early morning, and Yao Haikuo was drunk.
Later she found out that Li Han's father called her father over to introduce him to the leader and to settle the bill. He thought he could get the contracted work this time, but in the end he was just perfunctory.
In comparison, Uncle Jiang Qitian got the Evergreen Liquid project without much work. During that time, Yao Yiyao listened to her father scolding Li Han's family at home every day.
Originally, Li Han’s parents were very arrogant. In the eyes of these leaders, who was Yao Haikuo?
He is just a peasant who contracts a project. They are the leaders of the power grid. Not to mention leaders, in their eyes, even a regular power grid worker can easily earn more than a civil servant in the same area.
However, things change over time. Yao Haikuo is now in a powerful position, earning several million a year. Although his income may not be comparable to that of Li Han's family, the family no longer cares about them.
The dog that had been licking all the time stopped licking, which made Li Han's family very upset.
So some time ago, the Li family asked Yao Haikuo to bring his daughter to his home for a reunion through Yao's mother.
Now, Li Han felt a little uncomfortable when he saw Yao Yiyao's cold look. Yao Yiyao was beautiful, and among the young men in the power grid, she could rival Li Qingyang.
In the past, when Yao Yiyao came to his house for dinner, he secretly told his parents that Yao Yiyao was beautiful.
His mother commented: "He just has a bad temper. He's been spoiled, too spoiled!"
His father pointed at the animal world on TV, where an eagle was flying in the sky, and joked, "It will be fine after a while."
Now, Yao Yiyao's family is doing well, but they are still struggling to make ends meet, leaving Li Han extremely anxious. Today he specially came to the river dam to fish and relax, but ended up getting another piece of bad news.
When Li Qingyang saw Jiang Ning, he was also slightly surprised. Is he Yao Yiyao's boyfriend?
"If it was her boyfriend..." Li Qingyang's eyes flashed with fighting spirit. If he could snatch the rocking car's boyfriend away, would the rocking car still dare to act wild in front of her?
At the same time, she glanced at the little girl sitting by the creek fishing, and the funny little yellow duck fishing rod... Li Qingyang didn't take it seriously at all, was it a mascot?
"Rocking car, wouldn't you like to introduce it to me?" Li Qingyang said this while looking at Jiang Ning.
Even when she met Jiang Ning's gaze, she did not avoid it at all. This was due to her confidence in controlling countless boys.
Sometimes, a person's name will have an impact on his or her life. Since she became shampoo, she has liberated her nature and is no longer a lady. She wants to live a free life.
Yao Yiyao noticed Li Qingyang's murderous look. She took two steps forward, standing between the two of them, blocking her view.
After all, Jiang Ning was her savior, and now she was repaying him with her life.
The corners of Li Qingyang's mouth became more and more smug.
Yao Yiyao shouted to the boys behind her, "Hey, who among you is Shampoo's boyfriend? Cover her up quickly."
Li Han quickly said, "Not here, not here."
Li Qingyang: "Sorry, I don't have a boyfriend."
Li Han: "The athlete from No. 1 Middle School is not..."
Li Qingyang said calmly: "I now announce that we are breaking up."
Li Han: "Sister Qing is awesome."
Li Qingyang took a step to the side, avoiding Yao Yiyao, and appeared in front of Jiang Ning again: "Hello, I'm Li Qingyang, would you like to be friends?"
Jiang Ning looked down at her. Li Qingyang was quite pretty and had a strong personality. He scanned her with his spiritual sense. Although Yao Yiyao said that the other party was playing tricks, after his appraisal, he found that she was still clean.
So he said, "Jiang Ning."
Yao Yiyao said exaggeratedly: "Jiang Ning, she just wants to see you because you are handsome."
Li Qingyang was not embarrassed at all by having her thoughts exposed. She still said straightforwardly: "It really doesn't matter whether you are handsome or not. The main thing is that you look very polite. I want to make friends with you."
Yao Yiyao: "How shameless!"
Li Qingyang was very courageous and not at all stage-shy. He quickly began to ask questions all over the place, while Jiang Ning responded incoherently.
Yao Yiyao wasn't worried that Jiang Ning would be stolen away by Li Qingyang. Just kidding, his family's Xue Chuchu was much more beautiful than Li Qingyang, and she was also good at cooking!
However, in order to ensure that everything was safe, Yao Yiyao stayed by the side to keep watch.
When Li Han saw Jiang Ning surrounded by two girls, he tried to say a few words but was ignored by Yao Yiyao.
Li Han's face flushed, and he was extremely embarrassed.
Jiang Ning looked at Li Han in such an embarrassing state and felt quite unfamiliar with him.
In his previous life, he joined the private company in Yuzhou and became a clerk, while Li Han, who was two years older than him, was already a department manager and had just gotten engaged to the boss's daughter. In the future, he would inherit a company worth hundreds of millions. His future was bright. The difference in their realms was so great that Li Han always looked down on him.
I remember one time, an "excellent" female colleague joined the company. She was a graduate of Ancheng University, had a nice family life, and owned eight restored houses in Yuzhou, worth several million, which was a lot for ordinary people.
Many male colleagues in the department found various excuses to give her snacks and yogurt, but they didn't even look at them. Only in front of Li Han, the beautiful colleague admired him very much. She admired him for coming from a family of state-owned power grid, but he was willing to give up the support of his family and come to the outside world to fight and struggle alone...
At that time, Li Han, who was at the peak of his career, once publicly teased his male subordinates: "Before you chase her, take a look at your family situation. She has seven houses, but you only have one or two. I admire your courage, right?"
Many male students were embarrassed by what they heard.
Jiang Ning was not embarrassed at all because he didn't have a house.
Today, the situation is reversed.
Jiang Ning thought: "Very good."
Li Han was feeling depressed, so he went to the river, picked up a stone, and threw it into the water, as if he wanted to vent all the depression in his heart.
His skill in skipping stones on the water was not very good and he only managed two.
There was a lot of noise. The man fishing in the distance turned his head to take a look, frowned slightly, and then relaxed, feeling relieved: "I found the reason why I couldn't catch any fish today, because someone was skipping stones next to me."
Thinking of this, the fisherman's mood actually improved. People like them who go fishing have always been as calm as water.
Li Han played the game of skipping stones for a while, and it was more and more fun. His depression gradually dissipated a lot.
He began to look for stones along the riverside. As everyone knows, there are certain requirements for stones for skipping. The flatter and smoother the stone, the easier it is to create more splashes.
Li Han's splash increased from two to three, four, and five.
Xue Yuantong sat upright and activated his summoning skill: "Jiang Ning, help me find a stone, and I'll show you!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning gestured to the two women and walked towards the river.
After Li Qingyang took a glimpse, he blurted out: "Who is that mascot?"
"?" Yao Yiyao looked at her, slightly dazed. She said solemnly: "Mascot? That's Jiang Ning's best friend, a top chef, the first in the city's unified exam, and a recipient of honors for bravery!"
Unfortunately, Yao Yiyao still didn't know her well enough. If it was Chen Siyu, she would definitely add titles such as "professional e-sports player", "world-class fishing master", "cosmic-class sleeping player", etc.
Li Qingyang saw her exaggerated look and thought she was teasing him, so he didn't care any more: "Isn't he just a kid?"
……
"Where's Shitou?" Xue Yuantong looked expectant.
Jiang Ning said nothing, just stood quietly on the shore.
The next second, there was a sudden movement from the fishing rod in Xue Yuantong's hand, and she shouted in surprise: "It's hooked!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone present looked at them sideways. Yao Yiyao thought: "Is this true? Can I really catch fish?"
The fisherman, who was about ten meters away, exclaimed in his heart: "Nonsense!"
Then, in full view of everyone, Xue Yuantong lifted up the fishing rod, and a brown round creature broke out of the water, hanging on the fishing line, swaying continuously.
When the shaking slowed down, everyone had already run closer and it turned out to be a little turtle!
Yao Yiyao was the first to question: "Don't turtles hibernate in winter? How can you catch one?"
There was a big word in Li Qingyang's mind: "Fake!"
It turned out that the turtle was indeed hibernating, with its eyes tightly closed and motionless, as if it were dead.
The fisherman came closer to take a look and breathed a sigh of relief, "Luckily it wasn't a fish!"
Seeing a group of young people making a fuss, he couldn't help but say, "We are fishing, what can't we catch? Wild ducks, cultural relics, big snakes, grenades, and even corpses..."
He did not continue speaking, but everyone understood what he meant.
Xue Yuantong said: "So I just can't catch any fish!"
The fishing uncle rebuked: "Nonsense!"
He wanted to take out today's catch and strongly refute the little girl with a toy pole, but he didn't have the confidence!
Xue Yuantong looked at the turtle, then at Jiang Ning: "What should I do if I don't eat turtles?"
Jiang Ning asked, "Why not use it to skip stones on the water?"
Xue Yuantong thought this was a very clever remark. She grabbed the hibernating turtle, ran to the shore in two steps, and threw it violently, shouting, "Let your turtle grandpa go!"
The little turtle glided through the air. The shape of the turtle was perfect for skipping stones. Tongtong had been good at skipping stones when he was a child. This time, a long string of water splashed on the calm, wide, sparkling water, which was a beautiful sight.
Jiang Ning applauded: "That's amazing!"
Yao Yiyao always felt that she was extremely strange, but she also looked at her with admiration.
Li Qingyang didn't know how to comment on this bizarre scene.
Li Han, who was originally enjoying himself, found it a little difficult to maintain his Taoism after this water splash.
My friend by the river bullies me for being incompetent!
Li Han lowered his head to look for stones, ready to find a perfect stone. Then, he found a broken mobile phone in the grass by the river. The screen was broken. He thought it was garbage thrown away by someone else!
He picked up the phone immediately, walked in front of everyone, first showed his phone, then threw it out with a "swish", and "pa pa pa" made several splashes, which was a big improvement compared to before.
When the fisherman saw this, he was amazed: "What a great guy, you can skip stones with your own phone!"
I haven't met such a unique guy in many years.
Li Han smiled and waved his hands: "Hey, how could it be mine? I just picked it up by the river."
The fisherman was stunned for a moment, then quickly ran to his fishing spot, looked down, and was shocked to find that his phone was gone.
He yelled, "Fuck! That's my phone!"
