Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 862: Never Do a Losing Deal

Seeing that Xinyan didn’t want to talk, Jiang Peiqin didn’t press further, so she changed the topic: "Then let’s have a little competition and see who can catch more fish."

Xinyan’s lips curled into a smile: "Sure, I haven’t fished in ages. It’ll be fun."

Soon, the two of them cast their lines.

Not far away, a lively voice was heard: "Wow, this reservoir is really beautiful. It’s so big! Can we row a boat here?"

Shu Xiaoi, who brought them over, replied with a laugh: "Boats used to dock here for fishing, but a while back, so kids from the nearby village sneaked out to the center of the reservoir and got into trouble, so the boats were taken away. They’re only brought out when needed."

"As for the patrol boats, it’s even less likely that they’d let just anyone on them."

Just then, soone noticed Han Xinyan and Jiang Peiqin fishing by the shore: "When did they get here?"

Gu Yingying had spotted them a long ti ago but pretended not to see them, since she had seen that car many tis before and knew it belonged to Jiang Peiqin’s family.

A classmate who knew Xinyan and Jiang Peiqin jogged over: "Did you bring fishing gear too?"

Jiang Peiqin glanced at the speaker: "Isn’t the whole point of coming to the reservoir to fish?"

That person thought about it and laughed: "My mistake, my mistake."

Jiang Peiqin saw that she wanted to say more and made a ’shush’ gesture, then pointed to the water.

The classmate imdiately understood, nodded to Jiang Peiqin, and walked back: "Shu Xiaoi, do you have a fishing net?"

Shu Xiaoi waved her hand: "This reservoir is collective property. They catch fish twice a day, and the team usually turns a blind eye to hobbyists fishing but putting a net in would be a different story."

The classmate said apologetically: "Sorry, I didn’t know about that."

Shu Xiaoi smiled: "No worries. I’ll head ho and grab so fishing rods for everyone. You might get lucky, and we can have grilled fish."

After that, she added: "Do you guys want to co back to my place for so water first?"

Geng Yanfen from the German class asked: "Shu Xiaoi, is your place far from here?"

Shu Xiaoi pointed in a direction: "Not far, just over there. Only a few minutes away."

Geng Yanfen whispered in Shu Xiaoi’s ear: "I’m on my period and didn’t bring anything. Can you help figure sothing out?"

Shu Xiaoi was taken aback for a mont but then realized what Geng Yanfen ant.

Looking around and seeing that no one was watching, everyone was enjoying the scenery of the reservoir: "Sure, co with ."

Originally, Shu Xiaoi only planned to invite a few close friends, but word got around, and suddenly so many people showed up.

She thought that if it were just a few people, she would bring them ho for a al, but seeing the number of attendees grow, she quickly shifted gears and treated it as an outing.

Just like a spring picnic, everyone naturally needs to bring their own food.

They weren’t gone long before Shu Xiaoi returned to the reservoir with several borrowed fishing rods and two buckets from her ho, along with Geng Yanfen: "I got so fishing rods for everyone, anyone interested can give it a try."

She indeed was lively by nature, but she never engaged in unprofitable ventures.

Bringing classmates over served two purposes: first, the scenery here was truly beautiful and worth a visit, and second, she wanted to build closer relationships with her classmates. Who knows, after graduation they might stay in the city, and it’s always good to prepare in advance.
