Thinking of all this, Gu Qing did not speak again.
He should wait until the girl has wasted her effort and looks disappointed before he starts to teach her; that would be much more effective.
only……
Ten seconds later.
White waves surged, and a dark shadow drew an arc in mid-air.
The splashing waves crashed onto Gu Qing's head, wetting his hair.
Looking at the half-meter-long fish struggling helplessly on the shore, Gu Qing's lips twitched again.
If this is also considered a beginner's luck, then Su Xiyue's luck is a bit too good, isn't it?
Looking at his buoy, which remained motionless, Gu Qing couldn't help but begin to have doubts.
"Hu-hu-"
Su Xiyue was panting heavily; this fish had really taken a lot of effort for her.
Upon seeing the half-meter-long fish she had caught, she couldn't help but say with disappointment:
"It's only this small! I used so much effort, I thought it was a huge fish!"
Her tone was somewhat indignant.
Having watched videos of people catching giant fish, she thought she could catch one herself—a fish so big that one person couldn't even lift it.
Gu Qing explained, "Fish can exert force in water far beyond their size, and your fish is already big enough."
Looking at the fish, Gu Qing's tone held a barely perceptible hint of envy.
The biggest fish he ever caught in his past life was probably only slightly bigger than this.
Luck, it's all just luck!
We're the ones with real skills; we rely on technique. Luck can't last forever!
Shaking her head, Gu Qing withdrew the envy from her eyes.
This is just the beginning, so we can't rush it. Fishing is all about patience.
After 3 hours.
The morning sun was hot enough.
Su Xiyue disassembled the makeshift sunshade attached to the electric scooter, set it up for Gu Qing, and then sat down next to Gu Qing.
"What? Not fishing anymore?"
Gu Qing looked at Su Xiyue and asked.
"I'm done fishing, I'm taking a break."
Looking at her nearly full fish basket and then at Gu Qing's empty one, the girl realized she had no desire to fish anymore.
What's the point of catching more fish if the one right next to you isn't biting?
Moreover, she had already subtly sensed that Gu Qing's current state was somewhat off.
"Then you should take a break. Fishing is all about endurance; you should rest when you need to!"
As Gu Qing spoke, he continued to keep his eyes on his buoy.
Even though the fishing spots are very close, and his hook was placed at the baited area, why aren't the fish biting his hook?
Are all these fish male, and therefore repelled by him?
Gu Qing said she couldn't understand it.
At that moment, the buoy, which had been motionless, finally began to sink.
"coming!"
Gu Qing's eyes lit up and she immediately stood up.
He felt the trembling of the fishing rod in his hand and the pressure on the line as he reeled it in, and smiled slightly.
"Looks alright, but we need to put it to the test!"
Study hard and watch carefully!
With the intention of teaching Su Xiyue, Gu Qing explained while reeling in and letting out the line:
"We choose different wire-retrieving methods based on the pressure from the sensor."
"If the pressure is high, pull slowly and deliberately; if the pressure is low, you can try pulling all the way to the bottom in one go!"
As Gu Qing spoke, she began to maneuver the fishing line in a winding path.
Su Xiyue listened attentively from the side, but her gaze was mostly fixed on Gu Qing's earnest and focused face.
Gu Qing looks absolutely stunning when she gets serious!
The girl thought so.
Thirty seconds later, Gu Qing sped up the reeling speed, his eyes fixed on the approaching waves on the water's surface.
"Took the bait!"
Gu Qing let out a soft sigh, a faint smile playing on her lips.
It's time to show off your real skills!
"Shh!"
The splashing waves refracted a silvery light in the sunlight.
Under Gu Qing's gaze, and amidst Su Xiyue's longing.
With a final, forceful pull, Gu Qing dragged the fish ashore.
"Sometimes, that's just how it is..."
Gu Qing continued explaining to himself, without even glancing at his catch. He could tell that it was a fish of decent weight.
Instead, Su Xiyue looked over immediately, but did not find the scales that reflected light as she had imagined.
"Uh……"
Looking at Gu Qing, who was calmly explaining, the girl really didn't know whether she should interrupt him or not.
Sensing something was slightly off, Gu Qing finally looked at the fish he had pulled ashore.
A black woman's high heel was hanging on the fishing hook, along with several dark green and yellowish water plants.
No wonder the sensor seemed to be under a lot of pressure at first; it was stuck on the aquatic plants...
However, that doesn't seem to be the main point.
Where is my fish?
Where is my fish, which is that big?
Gu Qing pursed her lips, then gently bit her lower lip with her pearly teeth, a fleeting look of disbelief flashing across her beautiful eyes.
"call--"
He quickly breathed a sigh of relief.
He crouched down, slowly untangling the shoe from the fishhook, and said calmly without looking up:
"The greatest joy of fishing is that you never know what you're going to catch until you reel it in."
After rearranging the fishhook, Gu Qing looked at Su Xiyue and said seriously:
"Life is like fishing, you never know what you're going to catch."
The boy rebaited the hook and cast it.
But it seems that he used too much force, because this time the hook landed a little further away than before.
"Gu Qing, you're right. That's life. You never know what will happen next!"
Su Xiyue nodded her head as hard as she could.
Although she really wanted to try to undermine Gu Qing and see how he would react.
But thinking about the big fish she was trying to catch, the girl felt it was best not to embarrass the fish.
What if we scare the fish away?
When it comes to fishing, the most important thing is patience!
The girl always kept in mind the skills personally taught to her by the "big fish".
Meanwhile, the two people enjoying fishing on the reservoir bank were unaware of what was happening.
On that calm sea, a raging hurricane had already taken shape and deviated from its original trajectory.
At the Typhoon and Marine Forecasting Center of the Meteorological Bureau, several researchers and computers are frantically calculating the deviation of Typhoon Doksuri from its intended path.
Where is it going?
