Chapter 691: Chapter 691
Solid heavy-duty soft fishing line for catching carnivorous fish like catfish, soft-shelled turtles, and turtles, Liu Zhizhong of course learned this from his foster father, Old Liu, and he learned it well.
He knew the hiding spots for these creatures in the river, where they would seek refuge when the water level rose.
The river swelled, the current was too strong, and even the most cunning aquatic creatures needed to find a stable place to stay.
After everything was set up, he found himself drenched in sweat, his clothes completely soaked.
But, having set a whopping 36 hooks into the water, he sat and waited for a catch, his heart filled with anticipation.
On the way back to the RV camp, he picked up his phone and checked his messages in detail.
When he saw Zhao Han's message, he was totally flabbergasted... Well, great... That bastard Zhang Hongyang is determined to screw me over! So Zhao Yan avoids a clash with Zhao Han, but now I have to agree to Zhao Yan's demands?
Could he tell Lu Yumei about this? Even though she's into me and wants me to marry Zhao Han after the divorce, this would reveal too much, such as our affair before Zhao Han's wedding, and if Zhao Yan got pissed off, even Zhang Qixiang would spill the beans, and that wouldn't look good.
What could Liu Zhizhong do? Other than catching the adulterer quickly, he was left with no choice but to divorce.
With a heavy heart, he replied to Zhao Han, telling her not to worry and that, for safety's sake, he'd temporarily agree to Zhao Yan's demands.
Of course, Zhao Yan also sent a message, saying she had given Liu Zhizhong enough face and that even Zhang Hongyang had no spirit left to argue against her. It was up to him whether to divorce or not. If not, don't blame Zhao Yan for running out of patience.
How could Liu Zhizhong reply to her? He simply responded, "Thank you, wife, for being magnanimous and putting the bigger picture first. I'm still traveling with mom, we'll talk after I get back!"
Zhao Yan immediately shot back, "You shameless man, traveling with Ms. Lu Yumei, alone together, I hope something happens to you two, best wishes, haha..."
Liu Zhizhong replied, "Wife..." and added a helpless emoji.
Zhao Yan gave him an eye-rolling emoji and added, "I don't have time to waste words with you. Be careful and don't make a fool of yourself, that's my advice!"
Liu Zhizhong was speechless...
It seems she really isn't his flesh and blood ah, the current Zhao Yan actually dared to joke about him and Lu Yumei.
Couldn't let Lu Yumei know about this, could he? That just wouldn't do...
When he got back to the RV, Lu Yumei was still cooking, the delicious smell wafting through the air.
After praising Lu Yumei, she said, "Cut it out! Look at you, all drenched. Go wash up, it's almost time to eat."
"No problem! I'm going to take a swim in Ru River and then come back! The water is so clean, cool and refreshing, haha..."
Lu Yumei laughed and nodded, "Yeah, the water quality is pretty good, about five or six meters visibility? I'm almost tempted to take a dip myself."
"Come on, let's swim together!"
"Off you go, I have cooking to do! Besides, it's not very convenient for me."
"What's inconvenient? I'll swim in this cove, you swim in that one, the Hua Jian Gou Ridge is in the middle, you won't see me and I won't see you!"
"Forget it, you swim, I'll cook." Thıs text ıs hosted at 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘦•𝘯𝘦𝘵
Lu Yumei's face turned red, her heart thumping, but she still declined.
This woman was still conservative at heart, she had her limits.
Liu Zhizhong then took some clothes to change into and eagerly went for a swim.
If mother-in-law wasn't swimming, he would rush onto the huge Hua Jian Gou Ridge between the two coves. He executed a beautiful dive and plunged into the water, swimming back and forth in the cool, refreshing river. It felt amazing!
In the outdoor kitchen of the RV camp, just twenty meters away, Lu Yumei could see him completely.
As she cooked, she watched a man with a model's physique swimming in the river—the beautiful lines of his muscle defined by masculine energy.
Broad shoulders, narrow waist, a wide and slightly protruding chest, long legs and narrow hips, strong and robust—the scent of masculinity seemed to permeate the entire valley and seep into Lu Yumei's heart.
Unknowingly, Lu Yumei struggled, wanting to look but not daring to stare too much, sigh...
Especially that guy's package, so robust and bulging, leaving much to the imagination about what the sight would be without the fabric of swim trunks, what a spectacular sight it would be.
Lu Yumei was experienced. Having been widowed, her healthy constitution still possessed natural desires.
Otherwise, would she have considered suicide, time and again?
But facing Liu Zhizhong, her inner desires and aspirations made her feel bashful and scared, ultimately resigning to integrity and resilience.
And Demon Liu? He was a decent man, too. He had natural inclinations and ideas, not that he was devoid of them.
Yet, he managed to keep himself in check, never acting on wicked impulses.
This little lapdog of a mother-in-law—if he ever took the initiative, it probably wouldn't take many tries for Lu Yumei to capsize, unable to resist and throwing herself into his arms...
Of course, Lu Yumei also knew Liu Zhizhong was a decent man, quite reliable. At least she felt assured of his good character without knowing anything else.
On this journey, just the two of them, Liu Zhizhong's behavior had always shown respect, understanding, and care—a tender-hearted man, ah...
