Master Huang was originally overjoyed to have caught a big fish, but when that man said he wanted to buy it, he was somewhat displeased, intending to decline the man's request. He never expected that the park staff would be so shameless as to try to snatch it away.
The master had taken up fishing on a whim and had never imagined catching such a large catfish.
Having enjoyed the joy of fishing and the admiring gazes of others, Master Huang felt very satisfied, and that was enough for him.
That fish hadn't had an easy life, surviving over a decade, probably just as eager to cling to life as he was at his age.
'He who cherishes life is favored by Heaven,' he had planned to take the fish home to raise it and had never thought about selling or eating it.
But the park workers' logic, akin to a robber's, infuriated Master Huang.
He was naturally stubborn. You want to take advantage of me? Well, I'll make sure you don't get your way!
