"Hmm." Lin Xiaoxiao also glanced upstairs. "The production team just delivered the food. They were planning to call you guys anyway."
Tang Xue was silent for a moment, then glanced upstairs again. She had been so focused on talking to Chen Mo about Lin Xiaoxiao that she had completely forgotten about calling Chen Mo downstairs.
"What's wrong?" Lin Xiaoxiao also glanced upstairs. What was going on? There was only Chen Mo upstairs now; everyone else had come down.
Tang Xue went to see Chen Mo, and now she's paying so much attention to Chen Mo?
Lin Xiaoxiao is now genuinely curious about what Tang Xue and Shen Mo talked about.
"I forgot to call her down," Tang Xue said, turning to go upstairs.
“I’ll go with you,” Lin Xiaoxiao said. “I’ve said everything I needed to say, so this time you can let me come along, right?”
Tang Xue looked at Lin Xiaoxiao seriously for a moment, then smiled and said, "Well, little Lin really does love to act cute."
"That's because Miss Tang Xue is a very nice person." Lin Xiaoxiao grinned, revealing her clean and even teeth.
"So, you only act like this in front of me?" Tang Xue raised an eyebrow, a hint of anticipation in her eyes.
"When Sister Bingbing called today, well, cough!" Lin Xiaoxiao touched her nose and lowered her head a little embarrassedly, "I just flirted with her a little."
She was forced into it; it was a completely subconscious act. She had no choice but to coax Bai Bing properly, otherwise, what would she do if Bai Bing insisted on making her leave?
"Sister Bai!"
Tang Xue wasn't too surprised. Lin Xiaoxiao's relationship with Bai Bing was far beyond what she could compare to. The two had known each other for so many years, so their relationship was naturally very deep.
“Yeah.” Lin Xiaoxiao pouted. “If I hadn’t argued my case, Sister Bingbing was going to take me back.”
As she said this, Lin Xiaoxiao looked up at Tang Xue, her dark eyes full of anticipation. "I successfully persuaded Sister Bingbing to let me stay. Isn't that amazing?"
"That's really impressive." Tang Xue ruffled Lin Xiaoxiao's hair. "Great job!"
Looking at the little girl with her eyes narrowed and a satisfied expression, Tang Xue's eyebrows curved slightly, and her aura softened.
Wow, Miss Tang Xue is so gentle! That look in her eyes... ah, I'm dying! If someone looked at me with such gentle eyes, I would definitely be willing to die for her.
[I must say, President Lin really knows how to do it; she clearly understands that our Miss Tang Xue is susceptible to this kind of thing.]
[President Lin looks so cute like this, I really want to hug him and pet him a few times.]
[Does the person upstairs want to have a one-on-one match with Miss Tang Xue first?]
Hahaha, I don't have the guts to say that, I'll just vent.
[Who is this "Sister Bingbing" that President Lin mentioned? They seem to have a very good relationship, and Miss Tang Xue didn't seem jealous at all.]
[It's Bai Bing, right? The top agent at the Lin Group, a very powerful figure. I think she's Tang Xue's agent now.]
No wonder!
"What are you doing? Are you ever going to stop?" Chen Mo opened the door and the moment she saw Tang Xue, the words were already out of her mouth. By the time she saw Lin Xiaoxiao behind Tang Xue, she had already finished speaking.
"President Lin." Shen Mo's eyes lit up, and she took a few steps forward, trying to push Tang Xue aside.
Tang Xue frowned, her expression not very good. She pulled Lin Xiaoxiao aside and said, "It's time to go down for dinner."
After saying that, Tang Xue pulled Lin Xiaoxiao away, not giving Chen Mo even a second glance.
She and Shen Mo had already made things clear, so there was no need to do anything more to save face.
“This Chen Mo…” Lin Xiao stopped halfway through her sentence. She looked at Tang Xue and said seriously, “Let’s try to stay away from her from now on.”
Lin Xiaoxiao made a decision: if she could avoid contact with this Chen Mo, it would be best to avoid contact with him altogether.
"Okay." Tang Xue's dissatisfaction was dispelled by Lin Xiaoxiao's words. She had limited energy and would always miss things, but as long as Lin Xiaoxiao consciously avoided them, things would be much easier.
What does this mean? Are they openly isolating our little Momo?
[What do you mean by isolation? Judging from Xiao Momo's attitude, she's practically writing her ambition on her face.]
[I just don't understand, how can she be so shameless? She even tried to push aside our Miss Tang Xue, doesn't she have any shame?]
Lin Xiaoxiao followed Tang Xue downstairs. As for Chen Mo, she didn't care too much. As long as she didn't have too much involvement with people she disliked, that was fine.
"We've been waiting for you. Come and eat quickly." Seeing Shen Mo come downstairs, Shen Yang waved to her. He was starving, but since everyone hadn't arrived, they couldn't start eating yet.
Honestly, if Shen Mo didn't come downstairs soon, Shen Yang was about to rush up and call for help.
"These dishes!"
When she got to the dining table, Chen Mo noticed that all the food was packed in boxes.
The production team probably never imagined they would have to provide meals for the guests today.
These meals were bought by the program crew from the county.
Since they had already packed it up and brought it back, the others felt that was enough and didn't ask the production team to do anything more.
"What's wrong with the food?" Shenyang shoveled a mouthful of rice into his mouth. "Isn't there anything you like?"
Shenyang was a little puzzled because there were quite a few of them, and the food prepared by the production team was quite plentiful, with eight dishes and a soup. In Shenyang's opinion, there must have been one or two dishes that Shenmo would like.
Shen Mo glanced at Shen Yang but didn't say anything. Her gaze swept over Tang Xue and then shifted to Xiao Yu, who was sitting next to Lin Xiaoxiao.
Just as she was about to say something, she saw Xiao Yu look away, pick up her chopsticks, take a bite of the rice in front of her, and show no intention of communicating with her at all.
Shen Mo's smile froze for a moment, she glanced at Xiao Yu meaningfully, and finally sat down next to Shen Yang.
"I heard our mission this afternoon is to go fishing." After quickly eating a few mouthfuls of rice to fill his stomach, Shenyang looked at Lin Xiaoxiao.
"Where did Mr. Lin and Teacher Tang catch the fish? Is it far from here?"
Because of her midday run, Shenyang is now more concerned about the distance.
If he could, Shenyang didn't want to go anywhere. He just wanted to eat his fill and go back to his room for a good night's sleep.
"It's not far," Lin Xiaoxiao swallowed the rice in her mouth. "But the production team hasn't said where we're going to fish yet, so it might not be a place we've been before."
The place they went to before was too small; for their dinner needs, they should go to a bigger place.
"Mr. Lin, you're so good at catching fish, could you teach me how to fish later? I don't even know how to fish yet."
Shen Mo looked at Lin Xiaoxiao with anticipation, "President Lin, please."
She clasped her hands together, adopting a little girl's posture. If you ignore her true purpose and the bad impression she left on others, her appearance is quite likable.
Unfortunately, Lin Xiaoxiao really wasn't interested in Chen Mo at all.
She raised her eyelids slightly and slowly uttered a few words, "Sorry, I'm injured and it's inconvenient for me."
“Fishing? I know how,” Shenyang interjected, patting his chest proudly. “If you don’t know how to fish, I can teach you.”
"I guarantee you'll learn it in no time. My skills are top-notch, right?"
Shen Yang gestured towards Shen Wei with his lips, eagerly hoping to gain Shen Wei's approval.
Shen Wei put down the soup bowl in his hand, looked at Shen Mo, and gave her a very polite smile.
"He doesn't have any other skills, but he's really good at fishing." After saying that, Shen Wei looked at Shen Yang, who was beaming with pride. Shen Wei smiled and thought, "It's good to be brainless. At least you don't have to think too much and you don't have any worries."
"Did you hear that?" With Shen Wei's confirmation, Shen Yang became even more smug. If he had a tail, it would probably be wagging its tail to the sky.
Shen Mo was speechless. Why did Shen Yang always jump out and ruin her plans? Did she have a grudge against this bastard?
[Hahaha, I can't stop laughing! Shenyang did a great job! Look at Shenmo's frustrated face, I feel so relieved.]
[She clearly knows our CEO Lin is injured, yet she still wants him to teach her how to fish. Dream on! Even if our CEO Lin weren't injured, he wouldn't teach her how to fish.]
[Yeah, her face is ridiculously big, and she's trying to act cute. It's disgusting.]
Although it was indeed a bit much to say that about a girl, when I found out that this person was Chen Mo, I felt that she had only herself to blame.
It's certainly not good to slander someone, but there will always be some people in this world who make you want to speak out.
Chapter 100
===================
The program team's subsequent arrangements were quite to Lin Xiaoxiao's liking; the fishing location they arranged was not the small lotus pond where she and Tang Xue had previously gone to catch fish.
Instead, it was a lake behind Taoyuan Village. Lin Xiaoxiao didn't know how deep the lake was, but it covered a very large area.
The production team must have taken into account that there were many of them and that they would need to exchange the fish they caught for food, so they took them to a place where it was easier to catch fish.
"Ahhh, I saw fish! I just saw fish swim by. There are so many fish here! We're going to have a great catch today!"
Shenyang leaned on the edge of the boat, pointed to a spot not far away, and shouted excitedly, "That fish just now must have weighed at least four or five pounds. Let me tell you, my fishing skills are pretty good. I'll definitely catch a big fish later."
Shenyang rolled up his sleeves, looking ready to unleash his power.
"Our dinner tonight depends on you." Lin Xiaoxiao patted Shenyang on the shoulder. "Let's see how you display your great power."
"Don't worry, I'll take care of dinner tonight." Shenyang patted his chest. "With my skills, catching a dozen or twenty fish is a piece of cake."
Shen Wei glanced at Shen Yang, shook his head with a somewhat unspeakable expression, but he didn't say anything, instead tidying up his fishing gear.
"Alright, this is your fishing spot." The boat stopped in the middle of the lake. "We asked the villagers beforehand, and they said the middle of the lake is the best place for fishing. We hope you all have a good catch today."
Is fishing just fishing? Are there any other requirements? Or are there any hard criteria?
Will there be any penalties if I don't catch enough fish?
Lin Xiaoxiao glanced at the staff behind her and rattled off all her questions.
"There are no hard and fast rules. Some of the fish you catch today can be used for your dinner, and some can be traded with the production team for other ingredients."
There are no team requirements, everyone can join as they please.” After saying this, the staff member watched Lin Xiaoxiao wait for a while to make sure she had no problems before stepping back.
"It's good that there's no punishment. If there were, I would definitely hold you back."
Lin Xiaoxiao rested her chin on Tang Xue's shoulder. "Xiao Xue, how was your fishing?"
"It wasn't very good," Tang Xue sighed. "I've never gone fishing before; this is my first time."
Tang Xue didn't have any particular hobbies before; acting was the only thing she was interested in.
So, you could say she's poured all her energy into this, and she really doesn't have any other hobbies.
"It's okay, let's treat today as a learning experience." Lin Xiaoxiao patted Tang Xue's head. "The result isn't important, just enjoy the process."
Tang Xue turned her head, but turned it halfway and then turned it back. Lin Xiaoxiao was currently leaning on her shoulder, and if she turned her head back, her lips would touch Lin Xiaoxiao's face.
"President Lin!"
