Chapter 87 Four Adorable Little Old Men
That evening, the Shen family held another celebratory banquet, as an early celebration of Shen Linchuan's excellent exam results.
During this period, Shen Linchuan was preparing for the exam and didn't have much time to relax or rest. Whenever he had a spare moment, he would spend it in his study doing practice questions.
Now that he has some free time, he's like Shen Zhi's mount, carrying her everywhere he goes.
Fortunately, students who have finished the physics competition receive an extra two days off, so he can stay in Beijing for two more days to spend with Zhizhi.
After dinner, Shen Mobai and his wife prepared to set off for the airport to return to Jiangcheng.
"Linchuan, you're the eldest brother, you have to take good care of Zhizhi."
"Mom and Dad, don't worry, Zhizhi is a good girl, I will take good care of her."
Shen Mobai stole a glance at Old Master Shen, then whispered to the old man behind his back:
"I'm sure I can trust you and me, but you have to keep an eye on your grandfather and make sure he doesn't take your sister to squat by the fishpond all day. Zhizhi has delicate skin; if she gets sunburned or bitten by insects, it will break my heart."
Shen Linchuan chuckled and shook his head, readily agreeing.
As the saying goes, no one knows a son better than his father.
The next morning, when Shen Linchuan got up and went to Zhizhi's room to find her, he was told by the nanny that the old man had already taken the little girl out before dawn.
Shen Linchuan: ...
How could he forget that these fishermen never stop working day and night, never tiring of their work?
But why did Grandpa take Zhizhi away?
Could it be because Zhizhi is a lucky star who can bring good fortune?
Poor little Zhizhi, her eyes weren't even fully open when Grandpa Shen scooped her up, changed her into a full set of sportswear, and put a fisherman's hat bigger than her face on her before taking her out.
Shen Zhi sat on a small stool next to her grandfather, nodding her head. It wasn't until they reached their destination that the sky was fully bright.
"Grandpa... Zhizhi doesn't want to fish, Zhizhi wants to sleep." The little girl pouted, looking quite aggrieved.
"Hey Zhizhi, the sun's already high in the sky, are you still sleepy?"
Grandpa Shen hummed a little tune as he adjusted his bait, muttering that it was excellent bait and that he would definitely catch a good fish today.
Shen Zhi puffed out her cheeks and pulled at the hem of her shirt to cover her bottom:
"If Zhizhi covers her bottom, can she go back to sleep now?"
Before Old Master Shen could react, several hearty laughs suddenly rang out around him, the kind that sounded like they came from wealthy people.
"Old Shen, is this the little granddaughter you were talking about in the group chat? She sounds like a clever little devil."
Hearing the sound, Shen Zhi turned her head and saw five grandfathers behind her, each holding a fishing rod and carrying their own bucket. After a while, they put down their fishing gear and surrounded Shen Zhi.
"Little girl, call me grandpa."
"Old Shen, do you have to be so cunning? Bringing the little kid to the fishpond so early in the morning, just to try and get some luck catching a big fish?"
"I could tell he was just showing off. 'This little baby is so pretty! I want one too…'"
As Shen Zhi listened to the old men talking all at once, she looked up and felt that the future was so bright that she couldn't open her eyes.
The grandfather on the left is surnamed Qian and is a professor in the Department of Physics at Peking University; the second grandfather on the left is surnamed Li and is a professor of finance at Peking University. At the same time, his Huasheng Group is the second-ranked company in Peking University; the grandfather on the far right is the dean of the Department of Computer Science at Tsinghua University. He is currently leading a team to develop AI-related projects and is a leading figure in the industry.
They're all big shots... Her grandfather knew so many talented people!
Shen Zhi immediately woke up, rubbed her eyes, stood up, and obediently followed her grandfather's introductions, greeting each person one by one.
The sweet little voice made each of the grandfathers smile broadly.
Grandpa Sun stared at the dimples at the corners of Shen Zhi's mouth and fell into a brief moment of contemplation.
Why did this little girl look so familiar? Where had he seen her before...?
Grandpa Shen pouted smugly, feeling incredibly pleased with himself: "Alright, alright, calling me Grandpa once is enough. Don't let these old folks get carried away."
"Hey, you stingy little thing, you're not happy even though I called you grandpa."
"Tsk! Are you here to fish, or to steal my granddaughter? If you want her, let your own sons have her!"
Grandpa Qian, Grandpa Li, and Grandpa Sun: ...
I really want to give old man Shen a good beating for being so disrespectful to his age.
When fishing was mentioned, the grandfathers became serious, though a hint of worry appeared on their faces.
"Hey, did you guys see Old Lu's post on WeChat Moments yesterday? How come he always manages to catch such big fish?"
"That's right... I used the same bait as him, in the same spot, but I didn't catch a single small fish, let alone a big one."
Grandpa Li shook his head self-deprecatingly: "I, Old Li, pride myself on being good at everything, but fishing is really... haha."
The four old men sighed in unison, each resting their left cheek on their hand, gazing at the calm lake and questioning the meaning of life.
They were all leaders in their respective fields, and in their later years, they developed a passion for fishing that they couldn't stop.
But the four of them were just like unlucky guys, each catching fewer fish than the last.
Every time they went out, they were laughed at by their peers. Over time, the four old men developed a strong desire to secretly hone their skills and catch a stunning fish to amaze their friends.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have gotten up so early and driven an hour to this desolate, ghostly place.
Shen Zhi cupped her face in her hands and rested them on her knees.
Oh~~
She understood.
It's just fishing, with her there, there won't be any problem!
Shen Zhi touched the jade gourd on her chest and looked carefully at the calm lake surface. There were large fish in this area.
However, the four grandfathers were indeed a bit unlucky; Yu Yu avoided the places where they were.
Shen Zhi took a small piece of bait from her grandfather's bait bowl, rolled it into a small ball, and as she rubbed it, a wisp of golden energy flowed into it.
Shen Zhi casually tossed the fish into the water, and only she could see the movement of the fish at the bottom of the lake. The little girl smiled mysteriously.
Greedy little fish, come on, come on, all of you come and eat her bait!
The fish at the bottom of the lake all became restless the moment they sensed Shen Zhi's energy.
It was as if wild wolves, having been starved for ten or fifteen days, had smelled fresh meat and were swarming toward the shore.
Shen Zhi waited quietly until one slippery fish head after another emerged from the water.
"Grandpa, there are so many fish here!"
Grandpa Shen squinted, intently staring at his fishing float. He wouldn't have turned his head at all if Shen Zhi hadn't called him.
"Zhizhi, be good, fishing requires calmness and quiet. You can't shout... Holy crap!"
Grandpa shouted out a traditional Chinese phrase with great force.
Grandpa Qian, Grandpa Li, and Grandpa Sun, who were standing nearby, all turned their heads away in displeasure.
then--
"Wow!"
"Oh my god!"
"My God!"
The four old faces were all filled with shock, each one more so than the last.
