After a Contractual Marriage, Little Taotie Went Viral!-Chapter 100: Take a Bold Guess

[The boss’s expression makes me feel something’s off. Looks like Leqi and the others are about to get scammed.]

[Ah ah ah, Leqi darling, run! This boss is a black-hearted one!! There must be no fish in the pond, they’re just trying to scam money!!]

[From my years of experience, this pond seems to be accustomed to being fished in, probably not easy to fish, especially since these two are beginners. Oh no, those two hundred bucks are probably not coming back, and they’re already in debt at the start. And it’s a hundred bucks every two hours, this boss is a bit ruthless. At this rate, making even a hundred would be hard...]

[No wonder the boss had that expression earlier, they probably know there’s no way they’ll catch any fish, right?]

[It’s been so long, not even a shadow of a fish, is there really any fish in this pond?]

[Probably not, if there really were fish, there should’ve been some movement by now.]

[Whoa, so many fish!! These fish must weigh several pounds, right?]

[There are actually fish?]

[But it was so quiet before, why did they suddenly appear?]

[No wonder the boss charges a hundred per person; these fish are pretty big. Catching a few should cover the cost.]

[Could it be that Qin Yun is some kind of animal whisperer? Otherwise, why are they all so obedient?]

[...This can’t be real, right? It’s staged, right? How can someone catch a fish in just a few seconds?]

[I refuse to believe this is real. This fishing speed is clearly not something a normal person can achieve! It must be staged by the production team; otherwise, there’s no explaining how the fish bit the hook just as Qin Yun put it down. Fish may only have a memory span of three seconds, but they’re not dumb. How could they bite one after the other, seamlessly, like they’re afraid of missing the hook?]

[The production crew wouldn’t be able to stay in the pond for that long, and I suspect, rather than it being a mystery, that Qin Yun has something especially attractive to fish on the hook. But there’s nothing like that on the market; it’s baffling.]

The fish were desperately jumping towards Qin Yun’s bait, as if afraid of being a second too late.

[You guys are all focused on the fish, but I’m focused on the boss’s shocked expression. From that, you can tell the pond wasn’t prepped by the production team; otherwise, the boss wouldn’t be so shocked. So, there are two possibilities: Qin Yun used some special method to make the fish bite, or there’s something extremely attractive to fish on the hook, prompting them to bite so eagerly.]

[Ah ah ah, this boss is so black-hearted! Seeing them catch so many fish, he even charges a rental fee of 100 for a big bucket!!]

[But to be fair, the fish in here really aren’t small.]

[Qin Yun’s skills are quite impressive! Regardless of the reason, I’ve never seen fishing like this in my life! Catching so many in such a short time, outstanding! If there were a fishing contest, Qin Yun would undoubtedly be the winner!]

[Hahaha... the boss is panicking, he’s even offering a refund! Afraid that Qin Yun might actually fish all the fish out of his pond.]

[No kidding, do you know how long it takes for a fish to grow this big? If Qin Yun fished them all out, how would the boss attract any more customers?]

[Hahaha, Yunyun is awesome!! So powerful!!]

[Did you see the boss’s expression? Looks like he’s about to cry, hahaha...]

[Hahaha, regardless of why Qin Yun managed to fish, this ending is so refreshing! I’m very satisfied!]

[The stark contrast in the boss’s expression is so satisfying.]

[Even though they only refunded a hundred bucks, seeing this boss so frustrated makes me happy.]

[Do you think the boss, after losing so many fish to Qin Yun and the others, might introduce them to another shady shop? Doesn’t seem too reliable.]

The boss took Qin Yun and the others to the hotel and agreed on a price.

[Hmm... this price is quite fair, not a scam.]

[Buying from the seafood market would probably cost about the same, but since he’s buying so many fish at once, a discount makes sense. Plus, it’s a hotel, so I don’t think they were overcharged.]

[In this light, the boss isn’t that black-hearted; the fish are indeed big and worth the hundred bucks. Whether or not you can catch any depends on personal skill. Apart from the hundred rental fee for the bucket, which they refunded, and finding a suitable hotel to sell them to, the boss isn’t too bad in the end.]

Afterward, they saw Qin Yun give 76 bucks to the pond boss after earning 1,176, causing everyone to burst into laughter.

[Pond boss: I ran around all day, and I’m not even worth a hundred?]

[Hahahaha! Seventy-six... After deducting the 200 given to the production team, they have exactly seventy-six leftover. Qin Yun is truly meticulous, not an extra penny over!!!]

[Did you see the boss’s indescribable expression? I’m dying of laughter. Anyone else would’ve at least given a hundred, but with Qin Yun, sorry... I can only give you my excess change, nothing more! Oh dear, this stingy little look, I find it adorable!! Haha... Qin Yun is a treasure!] 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

The scene then shifts to Chen Yao and Qin Hao, dressed in mascot costumes, handing out flyers and giving hugs to passing pedestrians.

[Wearing a mascot costume in this weather must be hot, I feel hot just looking at them.]

[I’ve worn one before, three hours for 150, it’s hot and exhausting.]

[But this part-time job earns money quickly, usually a couple of hours for a couple hundred bucks.]

[Seeing them make money this way makes me think that celebrities aren’t that unreachable?]

[Wake up! This is just temporary! They earn a lot from appearing on variety shows! They’re not actually so broke to need to take a part-time job in a mascot costume.]

Not long after, Qin Yun and Yang Leqi ran over to announce they’d made a thousand bucks.

[Why does this guy sound a bit dubious?]

[Whoa, did I just see the male version of a green tea?]

[This entire screen is full of green tea vibes, so manipulative... I remember during the introduction, this guy seemed to be from the same company as Qin Yun, right? Manipulating his own company’s artist... What kind of trick is this?]

[I initially had a good impression, but now I just feel... emmmmm... not as good as Qin Yun though. Looks like there aren’t many decent celebrities at Qin Yun’s company?]

[If this guy compared fishing skills with Qin Yun, wouldn’t he just get destroyed? Why am I kind of anticipating their competition?]

The two quickly finished their part-time work and went to find Qin Yun and the others, and upon being asked if they could order freely for lunch, the director’s grumpy expression was deemed the most pitiful one by the netizens.

[Director: I let you guys earn money, but I didn’t let you earn it so quickly!! What am I supposed to film? An episode of you eating lunch? Suppress laughter.jpg]

[The director’s expression is quite deep in meaning; could he have set a trap for Chen Yao from the start?]

[I’m going to boldly guess that this is what Chen Yao was referring to as hiding something?]
