By the time Qian Xuan had finished washing and changing into clean clothes, he felt refreshed.

Liu Zhizhong also made himself some hot water, feeling much more comfortable afterward.

As expected, Qian Xuan made a phone call to his wheelchair supplier, instructing them to create a new wheelchair according to the original specifications and deliver it to his home via helicopter immediately.

This way, Qian Xuan would receive the new wheelchair by lunchtime tomorrow.

His immense wealth, resources, and status allowed him to enjoy such a privileged lifestyle—damn, it felt good...

Liu Zhizhong also made some cola ginger tea; the two of them drank it to sweat from inside out, driving away the cold from their bodies.

Liu Zhizhong brought his professional, comfortable fishing chair, letting Qian Xuan take the fishing spot and continue fishing with a spare rod.

He then sat back in a leisure chair, sipping tea while fishing.

In such a situation, if the Giant Green Fish appeared, all the other fish would be scared away from the spot, and it would take some time before more fish came back.

The two of them chatted idly, baiting the spot, while occasionally checking the vast waters of Shuangxin Valley for any signs of a floating fishing rod.

Logically speaking, the river surface of Shuangxin Valley opposite was the deepest area, right beneath the opposite cliff, and Liu Zhizhong estimated it to be about thirty or forty meters deep.

If a Giant Green Fish escaped into the deepest part, the fishing rod and float would always have upward buoyancy pulling it; after the fish got exhausted, it would move up to the water's layer, and eventually, the rod's handle would at least show up.

Of course, the fish might also run to the safest obstacle near the shore to hide, but it wasn't the time yet, as there were no signs along the shore.

From time to time, Qian Xuan even took a telescope to search around the water's edge, looking very focused. Because such a big fish represented his dignity, it had to be brought ashore!

Overall, Shuangxin Valley has a narrow, irregular pothole riverbed structure; the further upstream and downstream one goes, the shallower the water becomes. The area beneath the opposite cliff is the deepest, whereas this side has a gentle slope, transitioning from shallow to deep. This underwater geographical structure means that big fish wouldn't come to the shallow water so quickly; perhaps they'd come by nightfall.

The two of them were fishing and chatting, when Qian Xuan suddenly said, "By the way, Zhizhong, based on the mate theory, big fish always come in pairs. Do you think the mate of that giant fish that got away is still in this spot below?"

Liu Zhizhong replied, "If a man's wife suddenly runs out while eating in a restaurant, would the man follow to see what's up? If the wife's in trouble, would he go back to continue eating or stay with her?"

"Uh... hahaha..."

Qian Xuan understood and laughed heartily, saying, "So if I caught that one earlier, would the other still be down there?"

"That would certainly be the case. If its mate struggled here for quite a while and then got taken away after one, two, three, or four hours, the other would be scared and hide. Once things calmed down, it would definitely come over to check the situation, to see if the mate was still around. If the mate isn't there but the hook with the tasty bait is, it would take a bite while continuing to search for its partner."

"Hahaha..." Qian Xuan laughed aloud and slapped his thigh, "Alright, this time I'm definitely going to fish out a couple of old Giant Green Fish lovebirds to have a look, hehe..."
