Deep affection knows no origin; remember the polar bear's love for you.

Chapter 37 Winning and Losing Results
Guo Mi took in all of Caesar's subtle actions.

She expressionlessly withdrew her gaze from Caesar's raised buttocks, which were sticking up from digging the hole, pretending she hadn't seen them.

In fact, she had already taught Caesar how to catch fish by this point; as for the techniques for success, he would have to figure that out for himself.

After a while, Caesar raised his head from the pit, a string of leftover fish spines dangling from his mouth. He sneakily walked to the lakeside, and perhaps afraid that Guo Mi would notice, he buried his entire bear face in the water before letting go of the bones.

And so, with great excitement, they watched the fishbone slowly sink.

Caesar blinked, raised his paw and scratched at the water's surface again. His furry paw dug a shallow trench in the water, which quickly closed and disappeared without a trace.

The fish bones that had just been put in the ditch also disappeared along with it.

"Pfft—" Guo Mi finally couldn't help but burst out laughing.

A rare feeling of embarrassment welled up in Caesar's heart. He awkwardly turned his back to Guo Mi, avoiding her gaze, and muttered to himself:

Since Guo Mi had already seen it, she wasn't angry. She decided to just go over and take another look later.

So Caesar pricked up his ears, and as soon as Guo Mi's laughter subsided, he immediately turned around, jogged over to Guo Mi, stood close to her by the lake, and craned his neck to look at the bait Guo Mi had placed in the water.

Guo Mi was amazed by his shamelessness. She stopped laughing and moved aside. Caesar looked at the lake and moved closer to Guo Mi.

The two bears are snuggled together again.

Guo Mi glanced at him, then took a big step to the side.

Caesar, with his thick skin, pretended not to see it and followed suit, sticking close to the side.

"……"never mind.

Guo Mi simply sat down and let Caesar watch her to his heart's content.

Caesar glanced at the remaining fish that Guo Mi had thrown aside, then at the water, and quickly realized that she hadn't just randomly torn off a piece of fish and thrown it into the water; she had chosen the oiliest part of the fish.

The male bear immediately ran back to the snow pit where the wreckage was buried and began searching.

Fat is an important source of energy for polar bears, and it's not easy to find fat in the remains of prey like fish, which are already low in fat.

Caesar picked and chose, and finally found a small piece of leftover meat that was still attached to the fish's pectoral fin.

He doesn't like the pectoral fins of fish, and this is the part he left over when he was eating it because he was too lazy to clean it. He never expected it would come in handy now.

With only a few pieces of meat left, and fearing that there would be nothing left after a couple of bites, Caesar had no choice but to put the whole piece of meat directly into the water.

The fish meat sank suddenly in the water, then gradually floated to the surface.

Caesar breathed a sigh of relief and, like Guo Mi, stood on the shore and waited patiently.

There was another splashing sound in her ears, and when she looked up, she saw another lively fish jumping around next to Guo Mi.

The male bear grew anxious, standing on the shore, tilting its head back and scratching its ears, making constant small movements.

In this anxious wait, finally, a blackback fish visited the bait that Caesar had put in!
The male bear, who had been waiting for a long time, instantly straightened its body, stretched its neck, and raised its paws impatiently, just waiting for the fish to come close so it could swat it down!

Guo Mi sat not far away watching him, also looking forward to the outcome of the hunt.

The little blackback fish had barely touched the bait before Caesar's huge bear claw slammed into it!
Water splashed high as he confidently awaited the feeling of the bear's claws touching its prey, only to be met with the sensation of water rushing through its fur.

Looking down again, there was no sign of the fish.
Only that piece of flesh with the side fins remained, swaying in the water.

Guo Mi sighed. Caesar was too hasty; the fish were still tentatively testing the waters, and he had already made a move. How could he possibly touch the fish?
She looked up at the darkening sky; the sun was slowly getting closer to the mountaintop, and time was running out.

"Caesar, the sun is about to set," Guo Mi reminded the dejected bear.

Caesar looked up at her words and remained motionless, staring at the dusky sky.

Guo Mi hesitated. Could it be that the disappointment of catching fish was too much for him, and he no longer wanted to try?
Just as he was about to speak, Caesar swiftly scooped the meat out of the water and stuffed it into his mouth, then the whole bear jumped into the water!
The male bear swam quickly in the water, waving its front paws and chasing the fish. The fish were chased around wildly, and ripples spread across the water!

Guo Mi watched the fish darting around in the lake, then decided to stop looking at her bait and instead carefully observed the direction Caesar was chasing the fish. She got up and walked towards the direction where the fish were darting the most.

Just as Caesar chased the fish and drove it to the shore, Guo Mi suddenly lashed out with her claws!

With a "smack," another fish was slapped ashore!

Time passed by, and after a long period of hard work, Master Xiong finally reaped the rewards.

Caesar, panting, climbed ashore with a large fish in his mouth. Just as he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, he saw Guo Mi slowly gathering the fish she had caught together.

So he had to abandon his idea of ​​resting and jumped back into the water.

The so-called ice lake is just a huge hole in the glacier, and this lake is connected to the sea.

Caesar had just caused such a ruckus that most of the fish in the lake had already fled.

By the time he finally caught his second fish and climbed ashore, the sun had already hidden behind the snow-capped mountains, the sky had darkened completely, and only the cold white moonlight shone on the earth.

A small pile of fish had formed around Guo Mi; a quick glance revealed seven or eight of them without even needing to count them.

At Caesar's feet lay a pitiful two fish, a rather empty space.

The results are obvious.

Caesar's eyes flickered.

Having known Caesar for so long, even if Guo Mi didn't fully understand him, she had at least a basic understanding. Before he could even try to cheat, she coldly said:

"I don't play with bears that cheat in games."

Caesar's little scheme was exposed, so he could only eagerly try to get his way again.

Unfortunately, Guo Mi's attitude was unusually firm, and her gaze was piercing, leaving the male bear, who wanted to cheat, nowhere to hide!
Unable to resolve the conflict, Caesar chose the latter—the possibility of future reconciliation—between offending Gomi and keeping his promise as he slowly left the lakeside.

Guo Mi breathed a sigh of relief after watching him walk away, then turned around and called out to him.

Two bear cubs, who had been hiding behind the snowdrift for a long time, popped out and ran over with a cheer!

Guo Mi gathered the two fish that Caesar had caught together and pushed them forward:

"Eat."

……

After Caesar left, he didn't go far, but found a high snow slope with a view of the lake and a headwind.

The wind blew the long white fur slightly, giving the huge polar bear a silvery sheen.

He lowered his head and, by the moonlight, quietly watched the three bears—one large and two small—sharing the fish they had caught by the lake, his eyes never leaving them.
