After finishing their barbecue, the group continued along their original route in one direction with unwavering determination. After all, the assessment lasted for a month, and they couldn't possibly spend a whole month in the desert; just thinking about it would drive them crazy.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, one of the candidates ran ahead to scout the way and then ran back excitedly.

"Miss Lan, there's an oasis ahead, let's hurry over there."

"Really, I want to take a shower."

"I want one too, I want one too."

"Shut up! Ladies first, let Miss Lan wash first."

Watching the four boys chattering away, Lu Yulan blankly interjected, "Why don't you drink water first? Aren't you thirsty?"

Although she had cactus fruit to eat and water to drink, she was still thirsty!

Several people turned to look at Lu Yulan, and answered in unison, "Thirsty!"

The five people, along with Xiaozhu, quickly headed towards the oasis that one of them had discovered.

Oases in the desert are masterpieces of nature, the source of life for all creatures in the desert. You might not see a green plant or a spring in your daily life, but that's not what you need.

Only under such extreme circumstances do people truly cherish these things.

Looking at the clear water, several people couldn't help but swallow unconsciously; they were so thirsty that they didn't hold back much.

I guess I was full after drinking just water.

The four people looked at each other and instinctively took a step back. "Miss Lan, you go ahead and wash. We'll watch over things for you."

Clothes do have the function of automatically removing dust, but if a person doesn't shower for a few days, they will subconsciously feel uncomfortable.

Forehead?

This was the first time Lu Yulan had ever bathed in the open air, in broad daylight. After thinking about it, she still couldn't bear it, especially since her son was a germaphobe.

The large banana leaves next to it first washed the fuzz off its own little bamboo, and then it hid behind the banana tree and washed itself a little.

"I'm all better now."

With his back to Lu Yulan, Lu Yuanhong could hear everything that was happening behind him, even pinpointing where a water droplet had slid to if he wanted to.

The days when he was injured and turned back into his beast form were definitely the most awkward days of his life, but they were also the most relaxed and carefree days in his more than twenty years of following the rules, when he truly had the nature of a feline.

Lu Yulan looked at the little bamboo on the ground with its back to her, as if it were patrolling for her, and couldn't help but smile again.

Its silvery-white fur shimmered in the sunlight, rivaling even the most beautiful ribbonfish in the deep sea.

Hearing the sound, Chi Huo turned around. Lu Yulan's face was without makeup, fair and radiant, with her cheeks even slightly reddened by the sun. Her hair was casually draped behind her head, half-dry, which further highlighted her beautiful features, full red lips and bright black eyes that seemed to be filled with water.

"Lan...Girl! Ah!"

Thump!

A huge splash of water erupted in the oasis, and not only Chi Huo, but the other three were also kicked directly into the pool by Lu Yuanhong.

Their little girl is someone they can look down on; she has no talent, is average-looking, and doesn't learn good things at such a young age.

Lu Yulan wasn't standing too close, which allowed her to avoid the splashes, or perhaps Xiaozhu's calculations were quite precise.

Lu Yulan leaned against a smooth rock, picked another banana leaf to shield herself from the hot sun, and then, out of boredom, made a small parasol out of the banana leaf for her little one.

After all, she gets jealous so easily, so we need to appease her.

"Help!!"
