Chapter 35: Catching Fishes in the Lake in the Moonlight
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
It was a lake.
It was past seven, and the moon was hanging high up in the night sky. At this very moment, a gentle breeze was blowing, and moonlight was shining splendidly across the entire lake, making the lake seem like a giant jewel.
A phrase appeared in Ning Fei’s mind — shining, gleaming, shimmering waves.
This was way too beautiful.
The viewers also gasped in surprise.
‘Dear me. What did I see?’
‘It’s too beautiful!’
‘Absolutely beautiful.’
‘Nature is simply too magical.’
‘The scenic lake and the pure autumn moon… The surface is just like a mirror, untouched and spotless.’
‘Excellent words!’
‘That’s the advantage of being educated and cultured. We can only curse!’
‘Brother, you’re right!’
The webcast room was booming with comments.
The drone continued to film the lake.
The lake was on top of a slope, with two creeks flowing towards the lake. It looked as though the stream of water from the top of the mountain had flowed down and reached a hollow area. And over time, it had turned into a lake.
A lake was great!
It was much more convenient than a river or stream.
Ning Fei hastened his footsteps towards the lake.
No one had imagined that a lake would be found in the depths of the mountains, miles away from human habitation.
Most of the viewers were envious of the webcaster. Ning Fei had encountered and experienced something they might never do so in a lifetime — true, unspoiled nature.
Ning Fei took off his shirt and removed everything on him. He then bundled Little Falcon with his shirt.
“Little Falcon, wait here.”
Little Falcon nodded in response. Little Falcon was very smart as it lay quietly in the shirt, screeching softly in contentment.
Ning Fei was topless once again. He had half the idea to remove his pants, but after some contemplation, he didn’t as he was being filmed.
He had planned to even remove his underwear.
But it was certainly a terrible idea. He could already imagine the various headlines tomorrow — Mysterious Man Swimming Naked During Webcast.
Besides, there might be piranhas lurking beneath the surface or some other danger. However, Ning Fei was quite confident that this lake was safe as the water came from the top of the mountain. If a lake was surrounded by hot springs or volcano rocks, then it might be dangerous.
Ning Fei dove into the lake bravely. He wasn’t a professional swimmer, but he had been swimming since he was a young boy. Thus, he was pretty good at it.
He had been climbing the whole day and was drenched in perspiration. He would definitely feel better after a swim.
‘Look at his swimming pool.’
‘I used to admire the private pools that belonged to the rich. But now, I am even more jealous of this host’s pool.’
‘The water looks so clear and sparkling.’
‘The cleanest spring water.’
‘Taking a bath in a lake of spring water? No one can compare to that!’
The viewers exclaimed with surprise.
Most people had only seen a lake in parks, and those lakes were dirty. And the only thing they could do was to look at it or, at most, take a boat across it.
Those who had seen the Chaka Salt Lake would know how spectacular and beautiful a natural lake could be.
A lake in the midst of a jungle was gentler.
This lake by the light of the moon and stars had fish occasionally diving out from the smooth lake’s surface, their wiggling tails producing pretty and loud splashes.
Ning Fei swam in the water leisurely as he tried to touch the fishes.
The water was cold, but he didn’t feel it.
The drone ascended up to take in the entire lake that resembled a mirror. Ning Fei was swimming in it, looking relaxed and content. It was a pleasing sight for the viewers.
‘How delightful!’?the viewers exclaimed.
At this moment, they felt as if they had been transported by Ning Fei, as he swam with enjoyment.
At an ancient mansion furnished with antique furniture…
Jiang Feng knocked on the door with a bowl of medicine.
A sweet voice answered from the room. “Brother.”
It was a cold night, so after Jiang Feng put the bowl on the table, he went to shut the windows.
At this time, a young girl ambled out.
The delicate, lovely girl should be around 18 or 19 years old. She wore a pale pink traditional Chinese dress. She was graceful and gentle, and had a pair of bright, beautiful eyes that resembled a sparkling spring. Her skin was soft, and she had a sharp, tiny nose.
This young lady was extraordinarily beautiful and seemed poised and regal. She looked as though she was a pretty maiden who had just walked out from an ancient painting. If she had been born in ancient times, her beauty would have incited wars between kings who fought over her.
The girl looked rather pale, and seemed fragile and tired.
She lifted a fair hand to raise the bitter medicine to her lips and drained it in one gulp.
This girl was the young mistress of Vessel Medicine Pharmacy. She was Jiang Xue, Jiang Feng’s sister.
She was Vessel Medicine Pharmacy’s unsolved complication.
As a corporation that was renowned for its medicine and treatments, no one could treat Jiang Xue’s mysterious illness, despite the numerous talented physicians who tried.
“How do you feel today?” Jiang Feng smiled gently at his sister.
“Brother, I feel much better. Don’t worry.” Jiang Xue gave a lovely smile.
Jiang Feng’s spirits lifted at the sight of her smile.
“Why are you so happy today? Did you find a dress that you like?” Jiang Feng asked gently. “I got the designer from the Chinese Cultural Association to design several more dresses for you. All of them will definitely be beautiful.”
Jiang Xue loved wearing dresses with traditional elements and designs. Jiang Feng would spare no expense to fulfill his sister’s wishes.
“Brother, I’m watching a livestream!” Jiang Xue whipped out her phone as she beamed at him.
“Livestream?” Jiang Feng frowned in confusion.
He glanced at Jiang Xue’s phone and immediately recognized the man to be Ning Fei.
Ning Fei had just caught a huge fish as he hugged the squirming fish to his chest. He looked as though he was wrestling with it.
“Oh, that priest.”
“I saw that you bought the Curded Blood Lingzhi for me.” Jiang Xue nodded.
“His webcast is so interesting. I’ve always wanted to experience all of that,” Jiang Xue remarked with envy.
“I feel so much better and happier after watching his livestream. Brother, can you help me to link my credit card to my account?”
At the sight of Jiang Xue’s excitement, Jiang Feng was taken aback.
It had been a long time since his sister looked so happy. There was delight in Jiang Xue’s eyes and expression.
Jiang Feng had no idea how he should thank Ning Fei.
“Sure, I’ll do it now. You can reward him any amount you fancy.”
