Reborn As Super Heiress

Chapter 1714: Chapter 1618: Infighting

Edwin really didn’t expect the result to be like this. All these testing instruments were provided by the FLW officials, making it absolutely impossible for any side to be favored. So, even though he was unwilling to believe this outcome, he had no choice but to accept the report from the organizers.

If the bait was not a problem, then what exactly was the reason that their American team didn’t catch a single fish, while that woman from the Huaxia team named Huo kept reeling them in one after another? Even after changing locations, the situation didn’t change.

Edwin, not willing to believe in such misfortune, just thought it was a coincidence. He looked hatefully at Huo Sining and shouted to the boatman, ”Let’s move to another spot!”

Everyone, including Edwin, thought that Huo Sining had just whimsically had the boatman follow them simply to irritate them with this act of tailing.

Additionally, just earlier, the American team had managed to occupy the Huaxia team’s territory because of Huaxia team’s tracking, so Edwin just naturally assumed that the Huaxia team would learn their lesson this time and stop following them.

But what Edwin never expected was that just after he called the boatman to set sail, Huo Sining didn’t care about the fishing rod that had already caught a fish, yanking it back abruptly, and shouted directly to the boatman, ”Master, follow them again!”

Seeing the Huaxia team following the American team again, and looking determined to stick to them, the onlookers and the audience in front of the TVs were suddenly in an uproar.

Edwin was practically furious beyond belief; he never imagined that the Huaxia team would follow them so blatantly, sticking like a piece of gum that couldn’t be shaken off. And Huo Sining, while following, even flaunted a proud smile, clearly determined to stick to them to the end.

The expression on Huo Sining’s face screamed for a punch, almost spelling out words.

Bullying you all the way, so what? If you’re not convinced, bite me!

Edwin had no choice but to grit his teeth and signal the boatman to stop, and then let his team members sit down to focus on fishing, trying to divert their attention in hopes of boosting the team’s morale through this method.

Unfortunately, no matter how many methods he thought of, they couldn’t compete with the big bass that Huo Sining was catching one after another.

The other members of the Huaxia team didn’t actually catch many bass. In total, they could be counted on ten fingers, but they had Huo Sining, a team member with explosive fighting power.

In less than two hours, this girl had caught no fewer than forty or fifty bass, and that was even with Huo Sining controlling her speed, while also dividing her attention to taunt the American team, catching so many as if it was a game.

In contrast, the American team really hadn’t caught any fish. Even when they finally had a bite, before they could get excited, the fish was gone.

Edwin’s expression grew increasingly dark; he was absolutely seething with rage.

Even if he were more foolish, by now he understood. Remembering how that Huaxia woman tricked them into betting before the match and even harshly stated they wouldn’t catch a single fish, though Edwin was reluctant to admit it, he had already sensed something was amiss.

He feared all of this was the handiwork of Huo Sining. The things she said before weren’t just jokes!

Edwin already guessed that the woman named Huo must have used some underhanded tactic to lure all the fish to her side, deliberately setting a trap for them to fall into. Her harsh words were just to lull them into a false sense of security.

If they hadn’t fallen for it then, maybe so many things wouldn’t have happened afterward.

Edwin felt a hint of regret, but it was too late by then because he knew clearly that he had offended that woman named Huo. That woman, in front of so many audiences worldwide, had said those words and would certainly follow through, absolutely not letting him catch a single fish!

Edwin’s face gradually turned pale. He didn’t originally think there was anything to fear about a Huaxia woman, but seeing Huo Sining over there, calm and with a serene face, he only felt a chilling sensation in his heart, feeling a bit bewildered as a strong sense of dread arose within him.

This Huaxia woman seemed quiet and unassuming, but when it came to teaching someone a lesson, her methods were surprisingly ruthless, without any hesitation.

Edwin could already foresee how embarrassed and miserable their American team would be after the team competition ended today. With a score of 0, even without an agreement with Huo Sining, their team wouldn’t have the face to continue competing.

Moreover, this FLW was being broadcasted live to the whole world; many fishing enthusiasts would be watching. By then, the American team would truly be humiliated to the ends of the earth, probably becoming the laughingstock among fishing enthusiasts worldwide by the end of the day.

Thinking about this, Edwin felt a bit panicky. He knew that after today’s battle, it would be impossible for him to continue in the fishing circle with the same glory as before.

If he hadn’t been lustful last night, making a move on that woman’s cousin; if he’d listened to Matthew and stopped revengefully after being taught a lesson; if he hadn’t sought revenge after meeting Huo Sining today, then all of this would have been different.

But in this world, where can you find an ”if”?

Edwin felt regret, and among his good teammates were two who went to the bar with Edwin yesterday. They recognized Huo Sining after seeing her, but they never thought she’d be so formidable in fishing and insist on going after them.

Seeing their miserable performance while Huo Sining was reaping a great harvest, these two teammates, shocked, also grew strongly dissatisfied with Edwin.

They all knew Huo Sining was doing this because of Edwin, so they felt today they ended up like this because Edwin provoked a formidable enemy, which led to their predicament.

The two teammates were very angry with Edwin, venting their dissatisfaction, and when the other teammates heard the reason, they realized they’d been used as tools by Edwin and immediately became irritated themselves.

The American team, already not very united and without morale, now crumbled into a complete mess because of internal strife.
