Chapter 849 - 847: So-Called "Fishing Rod

"You also fish? Looks more like the fish are fishing you."

Candy looked at her skinny arms and legs; any half-pound fish could just pull her into the water.

"Brother, you’re underestimating me again, aren’t you!"

"I’ve got super good luck."

Mo Jingchun turned and quickened his pace, who doesn’t know you have good luck, no need to say it out loud.

That afternoon you were so lucky, catching fish non-stop, while he, as the brother, caught nothing.

As they entered the mountain, Mo Jingchun and his group felt the interior’s coolness.

The further they walked in, the lower the temperature dropped.

Given the situation, the quick-witted Candy quickly finished her ice cream.

Passing by the production workshop, Mo Jingchun and others arrived at the other side of the mountain—the future space shuttle hangar.

"So many engineering vehicles."

Walking out of the hangar, the view suddenly opened up, and there lay the still unpaved airport runway.

At this moment, a line of engineering vehicles was neatly arranged on the airport runway, and a bunch of people was already gathered in front of them.

"Wow, looks like we’re the last to arrive."

Su Wenyan smiled but didn’t speak, can’t really say they were waiting for the boss to arrive before officially starting.

Saying that could really cost a meal ticket.

Watching the workers basking under the sun, Mo Jingchun sped up once again.

"Zero, it’s hot outside, you and Candy stay here and watch."

"I definitely won’t..."

Taking a step outside and feeling the sun’s intensity, Candy wisely shut her mouth and retreated back into the hangar.

It’s only a hundred meters away; watching from inside is the same.

Mo Jingchun didn’t notice Candy’s little action.

Focused on the kickoff ceremony, Mo Jingchun planned to keep things simple and get everyone on the vehicles to start working quickly.

Under this sun, Mo Jingchun didn’t need to think too hard to know everyone below was probably cursing him.

Under Su Wenyan’s surprised gaze, Mo Jingchun directly took the microphone from the host, said three sentences about safety, and then immediately let them set off fireworks.

Looking at the host’s bewildered expression, Su Wenyan rubbed her forehead with her left hand and sighed helplessly.

"That’s so boss-like."

Fireworks rang overhead, and the workers in front were all smiles.

No need to ask, Su Wenyan could tell they all really liked the boss’s style, or rather the style of millennial bosses.

A hundred meters away, Candy, who had just found a stool to sit on, looked dumbfounded at the fireworks outside and at her brother walking towards her.

"Is it over already?"

In such a short while, Mo Jingchun’s forehead was already sweaty.

"What did you expect? Like your principal, starting off the New Year’s show with half an hour of speaking?"

With that, Mo Jingchun shook his head, "Do you know why we millennials don’t go for this formalism? Because we’ve heard enough of it in school."

"Every school assembly, the leaders could talk for hours, but what they actually have to say is very simple, just about safety and such."

Candy nodded in deep agreement, at the New Year’s eve gala, students want to see performances, not speeches.

Of course, no student would say this directly to a teacher at school.

.............................

In the afternoon, after finishing their meal, Mo Jingchun took Candy to the lounge to rest.

Meanwhile, back in the office, Su Wenyan curiously picked up some fishing rods laid on the office floor.

Like Candy, she’d never gone fishing in her life.

"Huh?! Aren’t these sea rods?"

She hadn’t eaten pork, but she’d seen pigs run; she could distinguish between regular fishing rods and sea rods.

"Yes, President Su."

"Tsk tsk, in that small reservoir, who needs these things."

Shaking her head, Su Wenyan put the sea rod down.

With such complex sea rods, she wouldn’t even know how to cast the line.

"Put them all away, when the boss wakes up from his nap, I’ll hand them over to him."

With the air conditioner on, the suitable temperature made Candy sleep soundly, but Mo Jingchun couldn’t fall asleep no matter what.

"Could it be that my excitement about fishing is keeping me from sleeping?"

Raising an eyebrow, Mo Jingchun, unable to sleep anyway, carefully climbed out of bed.

Seeing Candy blowing a bubble and still asleep, Mo Jingchun quietly slipped on his shoes and tiptoed out.

Outside, the bodyguards were puzzled as Mo Jingchun stepped out after less than half an hour of sleep.

Mo Jingchun waved at Zero, who was looking at something, and quietly called:

"Zero, come here a sec."

"What’s up, boss."

"I’m going fishing, you stay here with Candy, and when she wakes up, bring her to find me."

"This..."

"Is there a problem?" Mo Jingchun rubbed his hands with a blank face.

"No problem!"

"Great."

After the boss left with his crew, Zero rolled his eyes, then returned to his spot, gazing at a distant pine tree’s top.

There, an oval wasp nest hung, with wasps buzzing in and out.

For some reason, Zero really wanted to poke that wasp nest with a bamboo stick.

Right now, if Mo Jingchun knew what Zero was thinking, he’d definitely give a thumbs-up.

"Worthy of being the AI I created, thinking exactly like I did as a kid."

Zero was just pondering, Mo Jingchun and his buddies actually did it!

As a kid, they really weren’t afraid of death, more accurately, they were oblivious to the danger of poking a wasp nest.

After watching the boss’s group grandly moving towards the small reservoir, Zero glanced back at Feiyan standing at Candy’s door.

"Did you see it?" Zero pointed at the wasp nest.

Feiyan looked confusedly in the direction of Zero’s pointing, "What?"

"The wasp nest!"

Seeing Zero’s eyes gleaming with excitement, Feiyan felt a bit panicked inside.

This guy can’t be planning to poke the wasp nest, right???

Wait, Zero doesn’t have to worry about getting stung by wasps.

Zero couldn’t read from Feiyan’s gaze if she understood his implication.

"Hehe, you hide inside, I’m going downstairs to find a bamboo stick."

Not giving Feiyan any chance to protest, Zero directly vaulted over the railing from the second floor.

Jogging away, Zero soon found a steel pipe over fifteen meters long that he had noticed in the morning.

Yes, that’s the bamboo stick Zero referred to.

When Feiyan upstairs saw Zero wielding the steel pipe like a warrior charging forward, her pupils dilated.

The next second, without any hesitation, Feiyan opened and closed the door in one swift motion.

A wasp sting can be extremely dangerous.

Through the window, Feiyan couldn’t see Zero, only the steel pipe standing upright.

No need to see, Feiyan could imagine the devilish smile on Zero’s face.

Simultaneously, Feiyan silently mourned for three seconds for the wasps in the wasp nest.

Encountering Zero is their "fortune."
