Lin Yue dragged the big yellow croaker that Qingfeng had caught to the back of the kitchen to deal with it. Qingfeng also put down her fishing rod and followed him.

Gou Houxing’s face was filled with envy. Was this the happiness of having a partner?

When would he be able to have a partner?

He suddenly remembered that Chu Tianbao had promised him that he would find the Great Empress to introduce him to a partner when he arrived at Guangling.

He walked up to Chu Tianbao, wanting to talk to him.

Chu Tianbao’s attention was all on Bai Wutong. The fishes kept coming up, and he kept retrieving the fishes and hanging bait for Bai Wutong. He couldn’t be bothered to give him a look.

On the other side, Sheng Huaixuan took care of Stinky while instructing Cui Lingyi to fish. The two of them looked at each other and smiled from time to time. The fishes in the sea could not help but jump up when they smelled them being lovey-dovey.

Everyone was in pairs, except for Cui Muzhi, who was alone at the side. Gou Houxing felt like he was in the same boat as Cui Muzhi. He ran up and patted Cui Muzhi’s shoulder, sighing as if they were close friends. “Sigh, we’re the only ones who don’t have a partner. How pitiful.”

Cui Muzhi looked at him indifferently and retracted his gaze. He pulled up the fishing rod. It was a heavy black fish.

Everyone was pleasantly surprised. Only Gou Houxing realized that he had been despised just now.

After another hour, as if they had poked a fish nest, they kept catching fishes. Basically, as soon as they put down the fishing rod, they could catch a fish.

The fishing rod in Bai Wutong’s hand suddenly became heavy. The fishing line straightened in an instant and was very, very fast. She was almost pulled out.

Chu Tianbao quickly helped her hold the fishing rod, but this fish was really not small and was especially strong. If she wanted to pull it to the side of the boat, she had to wait until it was exhausted.

After a while, the fish finally couldn’t swim anymore. Chu Tianbao pulled it over and everyone finally understood why. There was an extremely huge bass floating on the water. It was estimated to weigh 10 to 15 kilograms. Its huge mouth looked like it could swallow a baby.

It felt really good to catch such a big fish.

Bai Wutong couldn’t help but arrange for the next time they were going to fish in the sea.

After fishing for four hours, Stinky was so tired that he went to the kitchen to see what delicious food Lin Yue had made. Only then did they put away their fishing rods and prepare to eat.

Lin Yue stewed pickled vegetables with yellow fish and made dishes with flagfish, bass, and other fish. In addition, there were cold fish, braised prawns, boiled fish slices, fishball soup, prawn balls, and other delicacies.

Gou Houxing looked like he had never seen the world. His eyes widened. “You made all this? This is too amazing!”

Lin Yue scooped a bowl of fishball soup for Qingfeng and smiled. “I only made pickled vegetable with fish. The rest was made by the chef.”

The pickled fish looked especially appetizing. The fish was exquisitely decorated, and the fish slices were as thin as cicada wings. It was obvious that they were at the professional level.

Gou Houxing could not think of anything to praise him. He just exclaimed, “Amazing, amazing, amazing!”

Stinky finished a mouthful of delicious fishball soup and praised with a smile, “Because Auntie Qingfeng likes to eat fish, Uncle specially went to learn it.”

Gou Houxing couldn’t help but look at Lin Yue in admiration. It was no wonder that he had a partner.

After dinner, everyone played mahjong in the boat. Cui Muzhi walked to the bow alone, took out the jade pendant, and fell into deep thought.

Gou Houxing walked over and realized that he was in a daze with the jade pendant. He could not help but tease, “Who are you thinking of?”

Cui Muzhi suddenly asked him in a daze, “Has General Gou ever seen a person at the border of the southern frontier?”

“Who?”

Cui Muzhi suddenly fell silent again.

After a moment, he shook his head. “Nothing.”

For some reason, he looked like he had been possessed.

Gou Houxing judged that he must be troubled by love, so he comforted him casually. “The falling flowers have feelings, and the flowing water is heartless. There are plenty of fish in the sea. Let it go. You’ve grown up to be so handsome. Many women must be attracted by you.”

Cui Muzhi forced a smile. When Gou Houxing saw the depression in his eyes, he couldn’t help but secretly ask Bai Wutong when he returned, “Sister-in-law, does that kid from the Cui family like anyone? He looks a little troubled by love.”

At the mention of Cui Muzhi, Bai Wutong’s smile suddenly froze.

Chu Tianbao glared at Gou Houxing. “Why are you worried about other people’s matters? Did you train today? If not, go quickly!”

Gou Houxing said in confusion, “It’s my day off!” Seeing Chu Tianbao’s silent expression, he hurriedly said, “Then I’ll go back first today. Remember to call me if there’s an activity next time!”

Gou Houxing ran far away in a hurry before he remembered that he had forgotten to ask Chu Tianbao and Bai Wutong to introduce him to someone.

Bai Wutong really hoped that Cui Muzhi could be with the person he loved, but whether they could be together depended on whether the two of them could withstand all the obstacles.

She would not interfere. However, she still had to tell Cui Lingyi about the things that Cui Muzhi was suppressing and think of a way to counsel him first.

If he suffered from severe depression, it would be extremely harmful to his body and mind.

When Cui Lingyi heard Bai Wutong finish, she sighed. “Didn’t I persuade him? I’ve tried many times, but he won’t listen at all. Untying a bell requires the person who tied it. I think this will remain unresolved unless Jingbai comes back.”

When Lan Jingbai returned to see Cui Muzhi, Cui Shiji was probably the one who would be depressed.

Bai Wutong shook her head. “Then let’s think of a solution.”

Cui Lingyi sighed heavily. “Why have it come this far?”

Bai Wutong smiled and said, “Who can say for sure when it comes to relationships?”

Everyone had the right to pursue love.

Chu Tianbao came to the martial arts arena to practice his spear. Gou Houxing immediately put down his spear and ran over. “Brother, Young General! Have you forgotten what you promised me!”

Chu Tianbao shot the bullseye a few times and frowned at him. “What is it?”

Gou Houxing’s eyes widened. “You forgot?” His face was filled with condemnation for Chu Tianbao being so irresponsible.

Chu Tianbao thought for a moment and finally remembered. “I told your sister-in-law before, but she was busy and probably didn’t remember. I’ll help you ask when I get back.”

Bai Wutong was indeed very busy, but he also wanted to have a partner!

It was time for him to start a family.

Gou Houxing rubbed his hands and licked his lips. “Brother, I’ll leave my lifelong happiness to you! You must not forget!”

Bai Wutong had good taste and would definitely be able to introduce him to a particularly good partner.

Chu Tianbao nodded. “Okay!”

When he returned home, Bai Wutong was still at work.

Chu Tianbao walked over quietly and massaged her.

Bai Wutong glanced at him, closed the book, and leaned back in enjoyment. “Today’s tasks are settled. I’m so tired. You came at the right time ~”

Chu Tianbao bent down and kissed her face. Bai Wutong chuckled and narrowed her eyes in bliss.

Then, she heard Chu Tianbao ask, “Is there any progress on Houxing’s marriage?”
