Chapter 273 Bad luck, no one to blame but yourself
Li Qin stayed at the steel rolling mill until almost the end of the workday in the afternoon before riding his bicycle away from the mill.
He leisurely made his way back to the courtyard house.
Because he already left work earlier than other employees, and he was riding a bicycle, it took him a while to get back to the courtyard house.
The other employees working in the courtyard might not even have left the steel rolling mill gate yet.
Just as Li Qin pushed his bicycle into the courtyard, he saw Yan Bugui looking at him with a disapproving expression.

At the same time, Li Qin heard a system notification.
Li Qin was absolutely certain that he hadn't done anything, or even said a single word.
As a result, Yan Bugui had given him so much emotional power, and Li Qin's face immediately showed a blank expression.
Just then, Yan Bugui strode up to Li Qin:
"Xiao Li, you used to live in the front yard, we were neighbors for over a year, how could you want me?"
Yan Bugui's tone was full of resentment.
Li Qin subconsciously stopped in his tracks, then looked at Yan Bugui with some confusion and said:
"Third Uncle, what are you saying? When did I ever ask for your help?"
Although there had indeed been some friction between them before, Li Qin immediately retaliated.
After that, as long as Yan Bugui did not provoke him, Li Qin never sought revenge.
At this moment, Li Qin was genuinely puzzled. When had he tricked Yan Bugui again?
Seeing that Li Qin still wouldn't admit it, Yan Bugui's dissatisfaction grew even stronger.
"Li Qin, you haven't forgotten, have you? Last time you caught a lot of fish, and I asked you where you caught them?"
Not long after this incident, Li Qin naturally wouldn't forget it.
Li Qin nodded slightly;
"That's true, and I've already told you where to fish."
"It's good that you admitted it!"
Upon hearing this, Yan Bugui's face immediately showed displeasure, even anger.
Then Yan Bugui said in an annoyed tone:
"I went to that place as you said, and I stayed there all day, but I only caught a few small fish."
We didn't catch a single big fish, let alone compare to your catch that day.
Upon hearing this, Li Qin also realized what was happening.
He now understood why Yan Bugui had come to him this time, and he also understood the meaning behind the other party's previous words.
A playful look flashed in Li Qin's eyes.
A strange smile flashed across his face.
When Yan Bugui asked him where he was fishing, Li Qin did indeed tell him.
However, Li Qin did not reveal the real reason why he was able to catch so many fish.
The key to Li Qin's ability to catch fish, especially big ones, is not his skill or his tools.
It was Li Qin's secret bait.
Without this, it would be impossible to achieve results similar to Li Qin's.
A strange look flashed across Li Qin's face and in his eyes, but he quickly concealed it.
Then he feigned innocence and asked:
"But that's exactly where I caught the fish. Many people saw it at the time, which definitely proves that I'm not lying."
As for why you couldn't catch fish in that spot, that's none of my business, is it? And certainly not my fault.
Yan Bugui, who was originally furious, suddenly froze.
Although he didn't want to admit it, what Li Qin said was indeed very reasonable.
At first, Yan Bugui did suspect that Li Qin hadn't revealed the real fishing spot.
However, he later confirmed with other anglers in the area that a young man had indeed caught a lot of fish in the same spot.
Moreover, through these people's descriptions, Yan Bugui found that they indeed matched Li Qin's.
This proves that Li Qin was not lying.
But it was a fact that Yan Bugui hadn't caught any fish, and he felt very upset, which is why he subconsciously stopped thinking about the facts.
Instead, they wanted to pin all the blame on Li Qin.
This would not only make Yan Bugui feel better, but there might even be a slight possibility that he could get some benefits from Li Qin.
Unfortunately, Li Qin explained the facts in just a few words.
Thus, neither Yan Bugui's attempt to shirk responsibility nor his scheme to scheme against Li Qin could succeed.
Yan Bugui became increasingly annoyed and angry the more he thought about it.
Most importantly, he still can't get angry at Li Qin.
Yan Bugui would never forget how Li Qin had frightened the old men in charge with just a few words.
He didn't think he was any better talker than Li Qin.
Most importantly, he was in the wrong from the very beginning;
His inability to catch fish only proves his own lack of skill and bad luck; it has nothing to do with Li Qin.
Seeing Yan Bugui's distressed expression, Li Qin's lips curled up slightly again.
Ignoring Yan Bugui's reaction, he pushed his bicycle and left.
Yan Bugui watched Li Qin's retreating figure, a helpless expression flashing across his face.
After a final sigh, I went home.
Li Qin hummed a cheerful tune as he continued walking towards the backyard.
His face was full of smiles at that moment.
It's clear he's in a pretty good mood. The reason, of course, is that our generous and magnanimous Third Uncle has been constantly boosting his mood from the very beginning until now.
He had been slowing down the collection of emotional power recently.
But I never expected Yan Bugui to be so helpful.
In just a short time, it has already contributed tens of thousands of emotional energy.
If conditions allowed, Li Qin would have liked to shout out loud:
Thank you so much for the gift, top donor!
Li Qin originally thought that he would return to his home in the backyard of the courtyard house without any problems.
Unexpectedly, when he passed by the Intermediate People's Court, he was stopped again.
Li Qin had to stop.
"Little Li, look at that smiling face of yours, did something good happen?"
The person who stopped him this time was very special.
This person was none other than the High Priestess of the Courtyard, Jia Zhangshi;
Li Qin clearly remembers that ever since he moved into this courtyard house, whether he used to rent the front yard or now he lives in the back yard.
Jia Zhangshi and he rarely spoke.
Even if they meet, they'll only nod at most.
More often than not, Jia Zhangshi would simply pretend not to see Li Qin and wouldn't even say hello.
Not to mention communication.
Therefore, when Li Qin heard Jia Zhangshi call his name, his face was full of surprise.
However, since the other party took the initiative to greet him, even if it was just out of politeness, Li Qin should respond.
"Hello, Jia!"
Li Qin immediately smiled and said:
"I'm quite happy because after these days of hard work going to the countryside to purchase goods, I've finally completed my work tasks for this month."
Li Qin naturally couldn't say that he was happy now because Yan Bugui was giving him emotional support.
Therefore, I could only make up an excuse.
Although he came up with this excuse on a whim, it sounded perfectly normal to others.
That's perfectly reasonable.
