Chapter 2384: Chapter 2388: This Hopelessly Devoted Dad Can’t Be Saved!
"Such an exciting match, everyone is focused on the people, but you’re focused on the fish. If you’re not the fool, who is?" Gu Chi sneered at him.
Ye Xingbei couldn’t help but laugh, "Actually, what Xiao Chi said makes sense. There are indeed a lot of dumb fish here."
"Why?" Gu Chi asked, "Is it because this type of fish is particularly dumb?"
"No," Ye Xingbei smiled and said, "It’s similar to why there are many wild animals in the forest. This place is rarely visited by people, and few would come this far to fish. These fish have no natural predators, so they multiply and no one catches them, which makes them indeed dumber than fish that have predators over time."
Gu Cheng nudged Gu Chi, "See? The Young Madam said I’m not dumb."
"Not really," Gu Chi said, "The Young Madam only said the fish are indeed a lot and dumb, never said you’re not dumb."
Ye Xingbei was amused by the two of them and kept laughing.
In the creek, Xiao Shumiao ran to Lingyue and Qin Junye, waving his little hands, "Alright, alright, there are enough fish now, you guys don’t need to catch more!"
Lingyue immediately stopped and looked at Xiao Shu.
Seeing Lingyue stopped, Qin Junye also stopped.
Xiao Shumiao looked at the two very seriously and said, "We want to eat fish, so we catch fish. This is natural selection, but we should only catch as much as we need and not waste, otherwise, it is disrespectful to life."
Lingyue nodded, "Mm-hmm."
Qin Junye glanced at Lingyue and nodded too, "We’ll do as you say."
Gu Junzhu was very pleased and tilted his head towards Ye Xingbei, "Not bad, right? Our son is the youngest, and yet they all listen to him!"
Ye Xingbei: "..."
This dad, who is obsessed with their son, is beyond saving!
Lingyue held Xiao Shumiao’s hand and went ashore with him.
Xiao Shumiao seemed a little down.
Noticing this, Lingyue asked, "Xiao Shu, what’s wrong with you?"
Xiao Shumiao looked up, bewildered, "Huh?"
Lingyue pointed at his little face, "You’re upset, what’s wrong?"
"Oh," Xiao Shumiao was a bit dejected, "I was too busy watching you and the little brother catch fish. I didn’t have a chance to catch any myself, and you guys have already caught enough."
Lingyue looked at the fish on the ground, "No worries, you can go catch one more. We can eat a bit more at lunch and finish all the fish."
Ye Xingbei: "..."
She couldn’t believe she heard Lingyue say so much in one breath, it’s really rare!
Lingyue absolutely loves her son!
"Yes, you can catch one more," Qin Junye agreed, "I haven’t had a full meal in over a month. I can eat a lot, not just one more, even if you catch a few more, I can eat them all!"
Gu Chi said too, "Young Master, you go ahead, there are so many of us, even if you catch a few more, we can still finish them."
Seeing their Young Master frowning and feeling down, Gu Chi felt heartbroken.
Ye Xingbei, holding onto Gu Junzhu’s arm, whispered, "Qin Junye and Lingyue are getting along quite well. I thought they’d end up fighting."
"Senior Master Qin raised this kid well," Gu Junzhu quickly said, raising his voice to Xiao Shumiao, "Go on, Xiao Shu, be careful."
Ye Xingbei: "..."
Look at Fifth Lord of Gu’s distressed face!
It’s just forgetting to catch fish, right?
If someone didn’t know, they’d think his son was being abused!
Ye Xingbei thought, compared to these people, she seemed a bit unlike the biological mother.
