Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Uncle He’s boat wasn’t a big one. It was four meters long and two meters wide, and one of the plainest fis.h.i.+ng boats around.
They had to get to a certain area before they could throw the cast net. Wen Shan was an energetic girl who hadn’t been quiet since she boarded the boat, and was busy learning from Uncle He the proper way to row a boat.
“We use mostly motorboats now anyway.” Nalan Chunbo sat at one side of the boat and looked at the two of them interacting.
Wen Shan was disappointed at first, but quickly found other things that she was interested in.
Nalan Chunbo had his eyes on Wen Shan the whole time without Wen Shan noticing.
Wen Shan had just learned how to throw a cast net and was sorting out a net at one side of the boat.
“You should seize the opportunity while you can. She seems like a nice girl,” Uncle He said as he sat down beside Nalan Chunbo and smoked tobacco.
“She is too young. I am twelve years older than her,” Nalan Chunbo chuckled softly.
“Do townspeople nowadays care about age? I can tell that she cares a lot about you,” said Uncle He.
Nalan Chunbo didn’t say anything this time. They had many other obstacles besides age, and those could never be solved.
“Look at how well I did, Papa Nalan,” Wen Shan turned to look at Nalan Chunbo and shouted.
Nalan Chunbo put his hands on the deck and looked at the girl who was radiant in the suns.h.i.+ne. She was so breathtakingly beautiful.
“Don’t play with Uncle He’s net,” said Nalan Chunbo quietly. She was so beautiful that it dazzled him.
Wen Shan’s expression instantly turned gloomy and she put down the cast net quickly before sitting down next to Nalan Chunbo. She started looking around not long after, then stood up again to start taking pictures with her phone.
Nalan Chunbo leaned back against the boat and watched the girl who was happily taking pictures, then quickly whipped out his phone to snap a picture of her.
Wen Shan took a few pictures and then pointed her phone camera at Nalan Chunbo who had already put back his phone away without Wen Shan noticing.
“Smile, Papa Nalan. Let me take a picture of you for Sister-in-law.” Wen Shan was smart enough to use Ye Yuwei as an excuse to take a picture of Nalan Chunbo. She would really send the picture to Ye Yuwei, but at the same time she would also save the picture in her phone.
Nalan Chunbo put on a faint smile. Wen Shan took his picture quickly and sent it to Ye Yuwei, then showed it to Nalan Chunbo.
Nalan Chunbo kept quiet throughout the journey, his gaze focused on the sea.
When they finally arrived at the fis.h.i.+ng area, Wen Shan offered to throw the cast new for Uncle He and Uncle He kindly offered to teach her how to.
After the net throwing, it would take a few hours before they could haul the net back into the boat. Wen Shan who had been so excited finally got tired out and fell asleep at the side of the boat.
Nalan Chunbo noticed that Wen Shan had fallen asleep and removed his jacket and put it on her. She was resting her head on her arm. Although she wasn’t in her teens anymore, Wen Shan had very good skin that looked almost transparent in the evening sunlight.
Nalan Chunbo squatted beside her and reached out to brush a strand of hair on her face away.
“Why are you so silly?”
What was so good about him? Why did she like him so much?
“Papa Nalan,” Wen Shan mumbled his name even in her dreams.
Nalan Chunbo looked at her fair skin and her lips that were slightly parted. He began to stare at her lips without looking away.
