The village beauty and me!

The old man's son-in-law across from Chen Huan scoffed, "That makes sense, so what?"

"You're not convinced, are you?"

Grandpa Qiao was a little worried that Chen Huan would continue to make moves.

He knew Chen Huan's fighting prowess all too well.

If those two jerks on the other side were actually kicked into the reservoir, it would be a difficult situation to handle.

Subconsciously, I wanted to persuade Chen Huan not to take it so seriously.

But Chen Huan said in a serious tone, "Grandpa, don't worry about it. I have to back you up today."

After saying that, he looked at the other person and said, "Let's stop arguing and see who's the best."

"Let's have a direct competition and see who catches more fish. The winner is awesome, and the loser has to apologize. How about that?"

Seeing Chen Zheng's provocative expression, the two people opposite him exchanged a glance.

The old man pointed and said, "Let's compete then! Who's afraid of who?"

His son-in-law chimed in, "The loser isn't allowed to fish here anymore, okay?"

Chen Zheng readily agreed.

The other anglers nearby also packed up their rods and stopped fishing, all rushing over to watch the spectacle.

This is much more exciting than fishing.

The two sides set up the arena in their original positions and set a time limit for the match.

The two people next to him were full of confidence.

After all, I brought enough equipment, and the bait I used today was just right. My luck was on a roll.

On the contrary, Old Man Qiao was not so good.

He's a complete novice at fishing; he didn't catch a single fish today.

If things continue like this, we're bound to lose.

So the old man, looking worried, quietly said to Chen Huan, "Why are you doing this?"

"I know you're trying to save face for me, but when it comes to fishing, I'm really not good at it."

"I've been fishing here for three days and only caught one fish, which isn't even as big as my palm. How can I compare to others?"

Chen Huan raised an eyebrow. "With me here, you don't need to panic."

"In short, I'll help you win this matter decisively today, give them a good slap in the face, and let them know what it means to be outmatched and have a higher level of expertise."

Qiao Zhenshan laughed when he heard this, "Your condition really gives me confidence."

"Fine, let's fight them. At worst, we'll never come fishing again."

"But if you really do win and let me finally get my revenge, I'll have to thank you properly."

"Have you started dating anyone lately?"

Chen Huan grinned, "Don't worry about this. Qiao Lingling and I can be brothers or sisters, but we just can't get along."

"If you really want to thank me, just do me a small favor sometime."

Qiao Zhenshan nodded. "Alright, since neither of you are interested, then I can't play matchmaker anymore."

"But I'll definitely help you out, anything is fine with me."

The two of them are chatting right now.

A fellow angler nearby couldn't help but remind him, "Stop nagging, everyone else has already cast their lines. Time is limited, hurry up!"

Turning my head, I saw that the father-in-law and son-in-law next to me had indeed started fishing.

The two men each held a rod, baiting the bait and adjusting the float, cooperating perfectly and performing their actions in one smooth motion.

He's definitely a veteran.

On the other hand, Qiao Zhenshan only had one club, so he was already at a disadvantage as soon as he took the first turn.

Before the old man could even cast his fishing hook into the water, a fish had already been caught next to him.

"Ten minutes is the limit. Whoever loses less should admit defeat and never be allowed to appear here again," the young man shouted.

Chen Huan couldn't be bothered to pay him any attention.

He took the bait that Qiao Zhenshan had mixed and secretly kneaded in the crumbs of the Golden Elixir.

Using the body's internal energy, the medicinal effects are dispersed throughout the dough.

Then he encouraged the old man to cast the fishing hook into the water.

"Pretending to be proficient, the bait flavor is off, and the placement is wrong. No wonder you can't catch any fish," the old man next to him mocked sarcastically.

As soon as he finished speaking, Qiao Zhenshan suddenly raised his hand upwards.

The fishing rod instantly taut and fully extended.

"The fish is served!" The old man exclaimed excitedly, his face flushed.

Judging from the feel of it, the fish is quite large.

As a result of his excitement, he accidentally cut the line on the fish, almost causing the old man to fall over. He was so angry that he kept slapping his thigh.

The father-in-law and son-in-law next to them breathed a sigh of relief, then started teasing them again, "You were given a chance but you still couldn't do it."

Chen Huan glared at them. "If you want to fish, shut up and fish honestly. If you want to get beaten up, just say so."

The two men immediately fell silent, only casting disdainful and provocative glances at each other.

"I'll take over," Chen Huan said, switching places with Qiao Zhenshan.

They re-attached the hook, baited it, and cast it back into the water.

The two people next to them whispered, "A big fish must have gotten away just now. It stirred up the whole spot. There definitely won't be any more fish."

Before he could finish speaking, a cloud of bubbles suddenly rose to the surface of the water, and Chen Huan immediately pulled up the rod.

Another big fish.

Chen Huan knew that if the hook was too small and the line too thin, the fish would escape if he didn't control the force properly.

This is also why he replaced Qiao Zhenshan.

With his keen senses, Chen Huan easily flipped the fish over and pulled it out of the water.

The people around immediately went wild, "What a huge one! It must weigh seven or eight pounds! This is so rare!"

"If we're talking about weight, this one definitely wins."

Qiao Zhenshan was extremely excited and picked up the landing net to catch fish.

After they got ashore, the father-in-law and son-in-law next to him said through gritted teeth, "It was agreed that it was a contest of numbers, and now it's at most a tie of one to one."

They felt they still had a chance.

Little did they know that after Chen Huan threw the bait mixed with the golden pill into the water, all the fish around began to gather at the spot where they had thrown the bait.

It completely ignores other baits.

Next, Chen Huan and Grandpa Qiao worked together, one fishing and the other catching fish with a landing net. In the blink of an eye, they caught seven or eight fish.

The father-in-law and son-in-law next to them caught nothing except the first palm-sized crucian carp.

I tried several different fishing methods and three or four different baits, but it was all in vain.

"What's going on?"

"They're so lucky! It's like all the fish are actively trying to get on their hooks." The two men looked at each other, their previous smug and arrogant expressions gone.

Ten minutes later, Chen Huan and the old man had caught more than a dozen fish, all of them fresh, plump, and delicious, making everyone around them extremely envious.

Grandpa Qiao was beaming, his eyes practically sparkling.

He straightened his back and started trash-talking the people next to him, "You two stinking idiots, what do you have to say now?"

"You've been babbling in my ear for hours, but have you caught as many fish as we have?"

"Why are they all suddenly mute? According to the rules, shouldn't they be kicked out?"

Those two couldn't beat them in a fight, nor could they compete with them, so they eventually gave up, packed their things, and left dejectedly.

The onlookers started to murmur and expressed their envy of Old Master Qiao.

Chen Huan was stunned when he saw the old man cursing for the first time.
