Su Mu quietly sat on the green stone, his gaze fixed on the water's surface.
Beside him, Elder Bai Mei appeared somewhat tense and a bit restless.
At this moment, Su Mu also noticed something amiss with Elder Bai Mei, observing his rapid breathing as he alternated between staring intently at the water, taking deep breaths, and standing up to stretch, constantly on the move.
"Brother Yang, what's wrong?"
"Are you feeling unwell?"
Su Mu inquired.
Upon hearing this, Elder Bai Mei realized his demeanor was off, and with a smile said, "No, no, I'm just a bit sleepy."
"Why don't you go rest first?"
"I can fish here by myself."
"No, no, I can't leave Brother Su here alone. It's just that I haven't rested well recently." Elder Bai Mei dared not leave, keeping his eyes on Su Mu's float the entire time, really fearing that Su Mu might reel in something unexpected...
...
A few breaths later, Su Mu's float wobbled slightly—there was a fish testing the bait.
