Marry Me Quick

Chapter 518

In the afternoon, Ziyue changed into a lightweight tracksuit. She parked a nondescript vehicle in the garage and left.

After boarding a car, she double-checked the address Yuchuan had supplied her, and a tinge of shock lighted her eyes.

For both parties, the individuals were fully aware of the true reason for their appointment.

Old Mr. Qin wasn't sure why he picked a resort with fishing activities as the location, but the meeting site was decided.

Miss Ziyue will drive to the address, which was an hour away to the suburbs.

Whatever the case, Yuchuan would have to make a stop to meet up.

She traveled to the estate with the clear conviction that she had scheduled a meeting with Yuchuan.

...

When she turned around after stopping the car at the resort's entrance, she saw Qin Zheng standing not far from the gate.

Ziyue looked around and found that there were no guests at the gate of the resort.

She had researched this resort before coming. The local economy was thriving as a result of the distinctive natural surroundings. There was never a slow time for the business; it would always be packed with guests.

But it was probable that Yuchuan had already reserved the resort, given the current desolate scene.

Ziyue pondered this internally but didn't let her guard down.

Her car door opened, and she was approached by Qin Zheng.

The assistant looked at the visitor.

"Miss Ziyue," Qin Zheng addressed her. She greeted her with a small bow.

Ziyue queried, "Where is Grandpa?"

"Inside. Mr. Qin is expecting you."

"Get someone to carry the bags."

Although Ziyue spoke in a very polite manner, she remained guarded.

Qin Zheng couldn't help but eye her. She turned around and led her in, "Please follow me."

...

Behind the property was a lake.

Qin Zheng brought Ziyue there, where she met Yuchuan. The old man was seated and occupied with his fishing activity.

Today, Yuchuan donned casual attire and appeared at ease.

Behind him, several bodyguards stood, and a person standing next to him was holding an umbrella for him. It was June, after all, and the midday light was scorching.

It was formerly a small, naturally occurring lake, but the topography was quite steep. There were jungles all around the area, and it was generally cool from the mountain mist.

The area's natural beauty caught the attention of a developer who invested in the project. In Yunzhou City, it was now a well-known resort.

The lady adjusted her uniform and knelt beside the fisherman. Qin Zheng called to him, "Mr. Qin, Miss Ziyue is here."

Yuchuan continued to scan the lake's surface. He didn't move when he heard Qin Zheng's voice but instead nodded, "I see."

Ziyue moved toward Yuchuan's side after taking a stride. "Grandpa," she called.

At last, Yuchuan turned to face her.

Interestingly, Ziyue noticed the fishing rod moved when she stepped onto the pier.

It had hooked a fish.

When she observed the fishing rod move, the woman couldn't help finding a sense of irony in this whole situation.

I've taken the bait, haven't I?

Yuchuan sat down and reeled in the line, revealing a fat and tender fish hanging on the other end. He got to his feet and collected a net.

Wild fish were present in the natural body of water. The resort did not artificially feed the lake after it was fenced; instead, it preserved its ecological environment. As a result, lots of people came here to fish.

When Yuchuan drew the line in, the bodyguards rushed forward to retrieve the catch.

When Yuchuan saw this, he waved his hands and retorted, "No, I'll handle it myself."

He took the fish out and placed it in the bucket he had prepared earlier in the morning.

The fish began to swim fluidly as soon as they were placed in the bucket, with more than half of the water in it.

Yuchuan queried as he turned to face Ziyue, "What do you think of this fish?"

Ziyue pretended not to grasp the profundity of Yuchuan's remarks. She nodded and said, "A textbook example of its species." She looked beyond the lake's horizon and continued, "I heard that all the fish here are wild. Sadly, my knowledge only extends to preparing fish as a meal."

"If you like, I can make it tonight," Ziyue implored. Yuchuan raised his eyebrows to look at her as if dissecting the intentions behind those words.

Then, he quickly averted his gaze and said, "In that case, let's eat tonight."

Ziyue received a fishing rod from someone after Mr. Qin had done speaking.

Inevitably, Ziyue was incapable of fishing with her lack of experience; she could only take a seat next to Yuchuan.

This went on for the entire afternoon.

Yuchuan finally concluded the activity as the sun lowered, "It's late. You previously stated that you wanted to prepare the fish. Yes?"

"Mm-hm." Ziyue gingerly got up and followed Yuchuan while the bodyguards organized her belongings.
