Chapter 2063

Since Gu Chen had participated in fishing with Zhang Jingde before, his fishing skills were barely acceptable.

In other words, the fish in the pond were strong, and after Gu Chen came to the Furong Fishing Ground, a big fish was hooked in the bucket.

Lu Weiwei stood beside her happily from ear to ear, as if fishing was easy.

But today everyone's purpose is to wait here for Xu Tiankai's appearance and explain to him.

Since it was a meal, but Xu Tiankai was not seen for a long time, Lu Weiwei decisively took out a few French buns from her backpack to satisfy her hunger.

At a quarter past seven in the evening, at the entrance of the fishing ground, a tall and thin figure came.

With his back facing the entrance, Gu Chen's ears trembled slightly, and he heard the familiar footsteps walking slowly towards him.

Someone from behind came behind Gu Chen, and suddenly stopped in his tracks.

But Gu Chen didn't turn his head, just casually said: "You seem to be 15 minutes late, Xu Tiankai."

"Gu Chen, why did you put the talking place here?" Xu Tiankai saw that Gu Chen had already guessed himself, so he took the initiative to walk to Gu Chen's side and sat on the empty seat next to Gu Chen.

Seeing that Lu Weiwei was leaning very close to Gu Chen at this moment, Xu Tiankai immediately understood, and hurriedly asked, "Gu Chen, is this your girlfriend?"

"Oh, I'm his colleague." In order to avoid the embarrassing conversation between the two, Lu Weiwei felt that it was more appropriate to be a bystander.

So before Gu Chen could speak, he replied directly.

"Oh, hello, I'm Xu Tiankai, Gu Chen's friend." Xu Tiankai greeted Lu Weiwei on the other side across Gu Chen.

Lu Weiwei also smiled and said, "My name is Lu Weiwei."

"Hey, here's another one." At the same time that Xu Tiankai greeted Lu Weiwei, the buoy of Gu Chen's fishing rod sank, so Gu Chen immediately reeled in.

But after a while, a medium-sized carp was instantly caught by Gu Chen from the water.

Gu Chen easily took off the hook and put it in the bucket beside him.

Seeing this, Xu Tiankai smiled and said, "These fish are really stupid. The owner of the fish pond feeds them every day, and they are still willing to take the bait."

"Well, it's all like this." Gu Chen prepared the bait again, continued to put the hook into the water, and then said again:

"No matter how full the fish farmers feed them, these fish don't feel good. Later, when fishermen like us came, they just sprinkled some scented bait casually. These fish were very excited. .”

"Hehe, is that so? But what's so fun about fishing?" Xu Tiankai looked at Gu Chen who was only focused on fishing, and couldn't help asking.

Gu Chen chuckled, and said softly, "You don't understand that, do you? The moment when the fish bites the hook is the most enjoyable."

"Especially after pulling it up, you will find that it is still the kind of fish you like."

"Really?" Seeing that Gu Chen spoke with philosophy, he always felt that there was something in his words, but Xu Tiankai couldn't figure it out, and just reluctantly agreed.

Gu Chen nodded slightly: "Yes, the interesting part is here."

Seeing the two fish caught in Gu Chen's bucket, Xu Tiankai also took the initiative to find a topic and said:

"Is it difficult to fish?"

"It's not difficult." Gu Chen still looked at the water.

Xu Tiankai joked, "Then why is it so easy to get the fish hooked? Teach me?"

Gu Chen glanced at Xu Tiankai beside him, and said meaningfully, "Do you really want to know?"

"I really want to know, so many skills don't overwhelm me." Xu Tiankai also talked eloquently.

"Yeah." Gu Chen nodded in agreement, then explained to the water:

"There are several types of fishing. Use different rods and baits to catch different fish. It depends on which one you want to catch?"

"This is a different fish, so there are different methods."

"Is that so?" Seeing that he was just asking casually, Gu Chen was explaining seriously.

Xu Tiankai nodded silently, and hurriedly spoke up: "I used to be able to fish, but I used to fish blindly, no wonder I couldn't catch anything."

"You are a novice at first glance." Lu Weiwei saw that the two came here and started to discuss fishing skills, and Lu Weiwei couldn't help but interrupt immediately.

Gu Chen said with a smile, "That's right, this fish is what you want to eat. Before you catch it, you need to make a nest and let these fish gather together, so that it will be much easier to catch."

Seeing Xu Tiankai nodding silently, Gu Chen immediately said: "Oh, by the way, and there is another thing, when you make a nest, you can't give too much bait."

"Otherwise, these fish will not be so easy to take the bait when they are full."

After finishing speaking, Gu Chen glanced at the two fish in his bucket, pointed to the big fish and said, "I'll give you the big one."

"Send me?" Seeing that Gu Chen invited himself to come over for a meeting, he gave himself a fish instead.

Although Xu Tiankai was puzzled, he still accepted it happily. With a faint smile, he took a plastic bag from the side and filled some water in it.

Afterwards, Xu Tiankai grabbed the big fish in the bucket, put it into a plastic bag filled with water, and couldn't help thanking him, "Thank you, Gu Chen."

"You're welcome." Gu Chen sighed softly, still looking forward.

Holding his own fish, Xu Tiankai couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Oh, you said that the fish raised by others was eaten by fishermen in the end."

"Yes." Gu Chen nodded slightly, and said with a smile:

"In the end, these fish will all become meat on the eucalyptus board. If people want to steam it, they can steam it, and if they want to braise it, they can braise it in soy sauce."

Seeing that the time was about the same, Gu Chen glanced at the small fish in the bucket, lifted the bucket directly, and tilted it into the pool.

In an instant, the small fish in the bucket swam back into the water in an instant, and soon disappeared without a trace.

When Xu Tiankai saw this, he said regretfully, "Oh, I said Gu Chen, you've worked so hard to catch this fish, why... why did you let it go?"

"Because the fish I catch is not for eating." Gu Chen cleaned the bucket by the pond and put it on the side, then said again:

"If I want to eat fish, I can just go to the vegetable market to buy it. Isn't that all right? What I enjoy is this process."

"It's almost the same after playing, let them go back, and it's the same when you come back to fish in two days."

"Hehe." Hearing what Gu Chen said, Xu Tiankai immediately felt that it made sense.

Glancing at the little fish that was released by Gu Chen, Xu Tiankai couldn't help but sigh:

"That fish is considered lucky, but next time it is caught by someone else, maybe it will really become the meat of someone else's mouth."

Gu Chen packed up the tools at hand, stood up and said: "The so-called someone fishes, someone fishes, someone entertains, someone feeds the fish, let's go."

"Ah? This...is leaving?" Lu Weiwei, who was sitting beside her, was also a little confused.

Obviously it was Gu Chen who wanted to come here with him by himself, so he had to communicate well with Xu Tiankai.

But now, Gu Chen just caught two fish here, and ended the conversation in such a hurry.

Lu Weiwei felt, did Gu Chen forget the main task of coming here this time?

And Xu Tiankai on the side was also in a daze. Now that he was impoverished, he was so destitute that he would rub off whenever he had food.

And Xu Tiankai's purpose is also very clear, he is here to eat tonight.

After all, Gu Chen called and said that if he wants to treat himself to dinner, he has an empty stomach tonight, so he just came to eat.

Looking at the big fish in his hand, Xu Tiankai also smiled and said to himself: "Someone is a fish? Fish like water so much, the water still boils the fish."

Shaking his head, Xu Tiankai quickly followed behind Gu Chen and walked towards the restaurant on the side of Furong Fishing Ground.

Most of the restaurants here serve fish as their main dish.

Due to the proximity to the pond, the dishes here have distinctive characteristics.

And the chef who cooks the fish is also quite skilled.

Holding the bag of fish, Xu Tiankai saw Gu Chen walk into the pre-booked box, so he also quickened his pace and followed in.

After the three of them were seated, the waiter reminded, "Is the food ready?"

"Yes." Gu Chen said.

The waiter nodded slightly and left the private room directly.

But Xu Tiankai hung the big fish on the side, thinking that it could become his own delicacy.

But remembering that Gu Chen invited himself over tonight to discuss something, so he asked:

"By the way, Gu Chen, you said on the phone before that you have something to discuss with me in detail. What exactly is it?"

"I've already told you." After Gu Chen took the initiative to pour a glass of water for Lu Weiwei, he poured another glass for Xu Tiankai.

Xu Tiankai was a little confused, and asked weakly: "I already said it? What did you say?"

"Fishing." Gu Chen said.

"Hehe, fishing?" Does it feel like Gu Chen is joking with himself?

But thinking back, Gu Chen was chatting with himself about fishing skills and how to make nests, it seemed that there was something in the words.

Xu Tiankai didn't have this kind of awareness before, but thinking about it now, something seemed wrong.

Xu Tiankai, who noticed the abnormality, looked at Gu Chen again.

Seeing Gu Chen looking at him meaningfully, Xu Tiankai seemed to understand something? So he hurriedly asked Gu Chen:

"Gu Chen, what do you mean, I am the fish that was caught?"

"I never said that." Although Gu Chen also meant the same thing, he used fishing methods to tell Xu Tiankai that he was Zhou Min's fish.

But there are some things that Gu Chen can't explain too clearly, so he used a cryptic way, hoping that Xu Tiankai could understand it himself.

However, Xu Tiankai is not stupid. After Gu Chen mentioned it, he soon realized that he might really be that fish.

"It's not you waiting." Xu Tiankai calmed down, and said slowly: You, Gu Chen, have spent so much energy, it's not as simple as simply wanting to invite me to a meal, right?

"Hey, forget about Junior Brother Gu, let's talk to him directly." Lu Weiwei didn't seem to be playing around.

Seeing that Xu Tiankai was not stupid, Lu Weiwei simply told him: "That's right, you, Xu Tiankai, may be someone else's fish."

"It's Zhou Min, right? Have you investigated Zhou Min's situation?"

Xu Tiankai frowned.

Seeing that neither Gu Chen nor Lu Weiwei spoke, Xu Tiankai nodded silently, and said with a wry smile:

"Sure enough, it seems that Zhou Min does have a problem. She may have left me just to avoid me."

With a heavy sigh, Xu Tiankai rested his forehead with one hand, and said with a downcast expression:

"I should have thought about it a long time ago. I'm too lazy to communicate. Now she said that I can see the sun at night and I agree, but I'm not a pessimist."

"If I were a pessimist, I'd be standing there worrying about the rain, but I'm already drenched."

Looking up at Gu Chen, Xu Tiankai was also unwilling to say: "Gu Chen, do you know? My soul is like a dumb, never talking to my body."

"Zhou Min once told me that she said she was lonely, just like a long time ago, long stars shone on thirteen state capitals, and loneliness is the smallest unit of freedom."

"Sometimes she dresses up for a long time, and then she goes downstairs to buy a bottle of Coke and comes back. At that time, I sympathize with her."

"Then you don't need to sympathize." Seeing that Xu Tiankai was holding back his stomach at the moment, Lu Weiwei quickly comforted her:

"This man, there are always times when the horse stumbles."

"That's right." Gu Chen picked up the disposable paper cup, and while waiting for the food to be served, he took a sip of water and said:

"This man, there will always be a period of time to waste, there will always be some powerless time, let you stop and think seriously from the confusion, let you thank these bad days when the future is shining .”

"These moments often have special value, but only if you get through it, and you make all the bad times worth it."

"You don't need to comfort me." Xu Tiankai lowered his head and choked up a sob, then said again:

"I believe everyone has a different time zone, and there are moments when you feel like someone else has everything and you have nothing."

"In fact, other people have experienced it or have to experience it, so don't compare your vulgarity with other people's glorious moments."

Looking up at Gu Chen, Xu Tiankai smiled wryly and said, "Actually, we will shine brightly one day, and everyone will envy us."

"I used to think that I was the one envied by others. Many years later, I met Zhou Min who I liked in junior high school again."

"At that time, I believed it. I believed that I was the one who was envied."

"Can……"

Having said this, Xu Tiankai suddenly rubbed his face with his hands, as if he was on the verge of speaking, but stopped talking.

And Gu Chen also said meaningfully: "To tell you the truth, Zhou Min's disappearance is to hide from you on purpose."

"According to my investigation, she has been staying in Jiangnan City, and frequently stays with a group of other social youths."

After a pause, Gu Chen looked up at Xu Tiankai, and then said, "Just like she met you in the bar back then, the same plot is happening to Zhou Min."

"You mean..." Hearing Gu Chen's words, Xu Tiankai seemed to understand Gu Chen's intentions.

Gu Chen also mentioned to himself before that maybe there is something wrong with those creditors.

But now thinking of his downfall in the past few months, Zhou Min who suddenly disappeared seems to have a lot of doubts about the timing.

When Zhou Min was at a loss, he stood up for her and promised to help her pay off her debts.

But when he had no money in his hands, Zhou Min suddenly played disappearing at this sensitive time.

This made Xu Tiankai feel terrified for a while, as if he had really fallen into a deep trap as Gu Chen said.

And Gu Chen's earnest words here seem to want to make himself aware of the current environment he is in.
