Time passed, all the way until 5 in the evening.
It had been quite rewarding. Even though the interval between each item fished up was quite long, no one disturbed Lin Fan.
The medicinal ingredients that he fished up made him very pleased.
100-year-old ginseng, ling hua grass, and thousand-petaled flower.
Apart from the 100-year-old ginseng, the rest of them didn’t exist in this world.
Lin Fan was assessing the situation. Although the number of items he obtained wasn’t high, he was lucky that most of them were medicinal herbs. He was now one step closer to the path of pill-crafting.
He kept his things and prepared to leave.
…
At that moment, by the river, a young lady was holding a selfie stick and pointing the lens at herself.
“Thank you, brothers, for your gifts. I love you very very much.”
“Thank you, boss, for sending me a plane.”
Fang Qian was a Shanghai local. She was a very popular broadcaster on the Internet. Her broadcasting style was very cheery, so she was well-received by the fans.
This time, she was doing an outdoor broadcast. She had come to the riverbank to let the fans see the sceneries of Shanghai.
“Qian Qian, I heard that there are people who jump into this river every year.”
Fang Qian tidied up her hair a little before replying with a smile, “Brothers, that’s not true. Don’t trust all these rumors on the Internet.”
“I’m here to show you all the scenery. If any of you are interested, you can come to Shanghai to play in the future.”
At that moment, Fang Qian pointed the lens at the riverbank to show her fans the riverbank view.
Suddenly!
The netizens in the broadcast room who had been chatting idly saw a figure in the distance and instantly cried out in shock.
“Qian Qian, don’t move. Don’t move the camera. Is that person in front Master Lin?”
“Master Lin?”
“Which Master Lin?”
“F*ck. Are you really stupid or are you just pretending? You don’t even know who Master Lin is? Besides that Master Lin in Shanghai, which other one is there?”
Fang Qian hadn’t noticed at first but when she saw the comments, she was stunned.
She was a Shanghai local. Of course, she knew who Master Lin was.
In her heart, Master Lin was an extremely mystical person. Anyone who occasionally went on the Internet would see news related to Master Lin.
Earlier on, that incident regarding Nanshan Children’s Welfare Institute had caught her attention in particular.
Initially, she had thought that Master Lin had been corrupted but she couldn’t quite believe it. Eventually, when the truth came out, she heaved a sigh of relief.
She had thought all along that Master Lin wasn’t that kind of person.
At this moment, she gazed forward as if she was trying hard to distinguish if it was him.
“Do you think that person is really Master Lin?” Fang Qian asked her fans in the broadcast room.
“D*mn, hurry up and go take a look. If it really is him, this would be awesome!”
“Although I always see Master Lin on the Internet, I’ve never seen him in real life.”
“Qian Qian, hurry up and go take a look. It looks like Master Lin is about to leave. The opportunity is right in front of you. Don’t let it slip away.”
“Onward goes the gifts. Onward goes Qian Qian.”
…
Although she wasn’t a crazy fan of Master Lin’s, she was exceptionally curious about this person. Hence, without hesitation, she started running forward.
Lin Fan held his fishing rod as he walked towards the car park.
“Master Lin…”
At that moment, he heard someone calling his name. He couldn’t help but turn around to see who it was.
When he saw the figure in front of him, he was stunned.
The young lady was very young and she looked pretty good. She held a selfie stick in her hand, so he assumed that she was a broadcaster.
In the broadcast room.
The netizens were looking at that person in the broadcast. After confirming that it was Master Lin, they started becoming excited.
“D*mn, it really is Master Lin.”
“I didn’t think that Master Lin would come fishing.”
…
When Fang Qian saw that it was Master Lin, she was exhilarated. She ran over with a flushed face. Her excitement was written all over her face. “It really is Master Lin…”
Lin Fan chuckled. “You are…?”
“Hello, Master Lin. My name is Fang Qian. I’m doing an outdoor broadcast now. When my Internet buddies said that it was you, I didn’t believe it at first, so I came over to take a look. I didn’t think that it actually was you. I’m so lucky!” Fang Qian exclaimed.
Lin Fan hadn’t expected to run into a broadcaster while coming out to fish. He felt that this was quite interesting. Then, he went in front of the camera and said, “Hello, everyone…”
The netizens in the broadcast room were very excited.
To them, Master Lin was like a mystical being who seemed to know everything.
When they had seen those news articles on the Internet in the past, they sometimes felt as if they were dreaming. After all, how could there be such a powerful person in this world?
“Qian Qian, it’s not every time you get to come across Master Lin. Hurry up and interact with him more.”
“That’s right. I know that Master Lin’s fortune-telling skills are great. Although I’ve never seen it in person, there’s proof of it.”
“I’ve seen in the news that Master Lin once gave a secondary school teacher some advice and that teacher ended up winning the lottery.”
Fang Qian was looking at the comments. She was so excited that she didn’t know what to say.
“Master Lin, are you here to fish?” asked Fang Qian.
Lin Fan nodded. “That’s right. I came here to fish and now I’m about to head back.”
Fang Qian looked left and right. “Master Lin, it looks like you didn’t catch any fish.”
These words made him feel a little embarrassed.
He had indeed not caught any fish. Then, he chuckled. “I just started learning and my skills are horrible, so I didn’t manage to catch anything.”
When the fans in the broadcast room heard this, the comments were filled with ‘666’.
“Haha, that’s more human-like.”
“I finally know what Master Lin isn’t good at. If he’s great at everything, how is everyone else supposed to keep living?”
“Qian Qian, you’re still single now, aren’t you? You can ask Master Lin to read your fortune to find out where your other half is right now.”
Fang Qian looked at the comments and felt helpless. These Internet friends of hers were too immoral.
But she was a little curious. She had heard about Master Lin’s fortune-telling in the past but hadn’t heard anything since.
“Master Lin, could you do me a favor?” asked Fang Qian.
Lin Fan was in no rush to go back. “Alright, what is it?”
“Master Lin, it’s said on the Internet that your fortune-telling is amazing. Is that true?” Fang Qian asked a question that everyone wanted to know.
Lin Fan chuckled. “It’s not nice for me to say, is it? It’s just average, I guess. It has just been exaggerated by the rumors.:
In the broadcast room.
I feel that what Master Lin said is right. I feel like this kind of thing can’t be that accurate.”
“Yeah. If you can find out about everything with fortune-telling, that would really be scary.”
Fang Qian was all smiles. “Master Lin, I want to ask if you could help me read my fortune. I’m twenty-seven now and I don’t even know where my boyfriend is. Could you help me to see when I’ll leave my single life?”
Lin Fan smiled as he said, “This question is really too easy. You have so many Internet friends, do you even still need to look?”
When the fans heard this, they started spamming ‘666’ in a frenzy…
To them, this Mater Lin was way too smooth.
