One Meet By Chance novel Chapter 406

They didn't wait long before Mr. Forrest came with a young man carrying fishing tools. It seemed that the fishing tools in this farmhouse here were quite complete.

"Dad, brother, I would hand over three gentlemen to you. I'll take the others to the strawberry shed."

"Okay. Go ahead."

Forrest waved his hand with a smile. The young man next to Forrest looked like Forrest. It seemed that he was the son of Forrest because Peggy called him brother just now.

"Gentlemen, please have a seat. My name is Hubert Meng. I'm a master of fishing here. Even my father is no match for me. Do you three Gentlemen usually go fishing?"

Harris looked up at Hubert Meng with a smile. Albert was putting the chair, and Gavin said.

"Young man, is Peggy your sister?"

"Yes."

"She is a clever and considerate girl. She takes good care of us."

Hubert Meng smiled. He was a straightforward young man.

"Yes, she has been very considerate since she was a child. I think it's also because you three gentlemen are looked about the same age as my father, so she feel very close to you three."

"Ha-ha, young man, you're such a good talker and emotionally intelligent. You are good at flattering."

Harris burst into laughter. Apparently the young man was complimenting the three of them that they three were looked younger than their real age. It was really pleasant to hear that. He hadn't been flattered for a long time. Albert didn't think so. He didn't listen to what the young man was talking about at all. He was studying the fishing rod in his hand. He also came out of the countryside and often went fishing when he was a child, but the fishing rod that time was not as complicated as it was now. He couldn't even figure out how to use this fishing rod.

He had planned to show his real capacity in front of Harris and Gavin, but he found that he had thought too simply about the fishing rod. It was a disgrace, and he might be mocked by Harris if Harris found out. So he wanted to figure it out as soon as possible before Harris and Gavin noticed. But the more anxious he was, the more he couldn't figure out how to use the fishing rod. The sweat came out of his forehead.

Hubert Meng soon found out the situation of Albert. Just now, his father put down the things and rushed back to work. Before leaving, he asked him to entertain the three distinguished guests well.

"Sir, you don't often go fishing, do you? Let me help you."

Harris and Gavin also saw Albert's situation. Seeing his red face, they couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Ha-ha, Albert, do you want to pretend to be capable in front of us again? Do you want to show off how good your fishing skills are? But how can the fishing tools nowadays be the same as those in the past? In the past, the fishing rod just included a hook, a fish line and a wooden stick."

Harris's words hit the nail on the head. Albert had no choice but to snort at him, and turned around. He didn't talk to him anymore and just let Harris be proud for a while now.

As a result, Harris seemed to sit next to Albert casually and pick up the fishing rod beside him. He used the fishing rod skillfully. He threw the fishing line with the bait into the water and then sat down leisurely. Not long after, he caught a big fish of more than two pounds.

"Ha-ha, Mr. Harris, you are still so awesome."

Gavin couldn't help giving a thumbs up to Harris. He even called Harris Mr. Harris. Albert was furious. He didn't believe that he couldn't catch a fish today! However, every time when the float floated, Albert pulled the fishing line back and then he would see that the bait was eaten and the fish escaped. He didn't catch a fish.
