Chapter 3: Beautiful Spring



"Ephedra, Cimicifuga, Angelica, Atractylodes, Poria, Licorice..."

Lin Xiao frowned. It was a pity that he only found these herbs. He was still missing a few. There was nothing he could do. He could only deal with it for now. Hopefully, it would be useful.

Lin Xiao built a fire to boil the medicine and roasted the cleaned bamboo rats at the same time. Zhao Liying squatted beside him holding the little white tiger and stared at it intently.

Lin Xiao turned the bamboo rat around, occasionally glancing at Zhao Liying. The large expanse of white skin that was exposed, the charming scenery...

Unexpectedly, Zhao Liying looks skinny, but she looks so sexy in a swimsuit, which is a feast for the eyes for Lin Xiao, who has been single for more than 20 years.

Zhao Liying pursed her lips and her face turned red, but she didn't say anything. After so many years of acting, even her kissing scenes were watched by hundreds of people, not to mention Lin Xiao alone.

It was just that Lin Xiao's gaze was too scorching, and Zhao Liying couldn't stand it.

Zhao Liying leaned slightly to the side and asked, "Hey, Lin, Lin Xiao, do you think this herb can cure Reba?"

Lin Xiao pondered for a moment, feeling uncertain, but to reassure Zhao Liying, he nodded and said, "This is a Chinese medicine prescription I looked up online. The ancients used this prescription to treat illnesses."

"Um!"

Zhao Liying nodded heavily, sat on the sand, grabbed the little white tiger and held it in front of her, letting the little white tiger continue to struggle.

“Zizi—”

The bamboo rat was roasted until it sizzled and released a meaty aroma.

"By the way, how did you end up here?"

"Um?"

Zhao Liying looked away with difficulty, her expression gloomy. "Dilraba and I were filming at sea, and the boat was capsized by a megalodon. Everyone in the crew fell into the water, and we don't know if the others are alive or dead..."

"Megalodon?" Lin Xiao opened his mouth wide, his face full of disbelief. "You mean a Megalodon that's over 20 meters long?"

"Well, the one that hit us was almost thirty meters long, and it immediately tore the yacht apart."

Lin Xiao's pupils shrank, and he knew that he must not be in the original world. After all, the megalodon in that world had become extinct and could only be seen in movies.

Lin Xiao comforted him, "Everyone has their own destiny. Maybe they were saved too."

Zhao Liying nodded and looked into the distance, hoping that rescue would come soon. Although Lin Xiao in front of her looked upright, who knew when he would turn beastly.

After all, she and Reba, two weak women, kept hanging around him in their swimsuits, like two bones in a dog's mouth. The dog would eat them if it was hungry.

"By the way, filming? Are you celebrities?"

"Huh? You don't know us?"

Zhao Liying's eyes were filled with doubt and suspicion. She was not a household name, but she was well-known. With over 50 million followers on her blog, she should be more familiar to these young men. After all, these LSPs...

"Well, I've been living abroad. I was stranded on this island after my yacht crashed."

"oh!"

Zhao Liying was a little disappointed. It would be great if this man was her fan. After all, a goddess is someone who can be admired from afar but not touched!

"for you!"

Lin Xiao tore the bamboo rat in half and handed it to Zhao Liying.

Zhao Liying took it subconsciously and nodded in thanks. The little white tiger immediately ran away, allowing Lin Xiao to see the beautiful scene.

"ah-"

Zhao Liying quickly closed her legs, her face flushed, she bit her lips tightly and didn't dare to look at Lin Xiao at all.

Lin Xiao coughed lightly to suppress the excitement in his heart, and took a few breaths to suppress the signs of raising his head.

"Gulp!"

The two of them fell silent at the same time, speechless for a moment, quietly eating the barbecue in their hands, with only the sound of boiling herbs as the only sound.

Lin Xiao sprinkled a layer of fine salt on the barbecue. It tasted salty and delicious. He immediately felt satisfied and felt that all his hard work was worth it.

Looking at Zhao Liying eating the barbecue dryly, Lin Xiao handed her the salt shaker and said, "It will taste better if you sprinkle some salt on it."

"Thanks!"

Zhao Liying thanked him shyly. After taking a bite, her eyes lit up and she looked at Lin Xiao with a smile, "It's really delicious!"

Looking at Zhao Liying's smile, it seemed to warm the whole world. Lin Xiao also smiled unconsciously. It was so nice to have a beautiful woman to accompany him for dinner!

"What kind of meat is this? It's so delicious?"

Zhao Liying's mood changed quickly, and she quickly suppressed her previous embarrassment. She looked at the barbecue in her hand curiously, and felt that it had a chewy texture and was full of meaty aroma.

"Well!"

Lin Xiao was choked for a moment, not knowing what to say. After all, bamboo rats are still rats. If he told the truth, he wondered if Zhao Liying would accept it.

"It's a rabbit, a rabbit."

Zhao Liying's heart skipped a beat. How could she, who had been acting for many years, not see that Lin Xiao was lying? In the eyes of an old actor like her, Lin Xiao's acting skills were too immature.

Zhao Liying stared at Lin Xiao intently, her face extremely serious, and for a moment the air seemed to be stagnant.

Lin Xiao touched his head, gave a wry smile, and told the truth: "It's a bamboo rat!"

"Bamboo rat?"

Zhao Liying's eyes widened as she looked at the thin calf in her hands. It was as if she saw a rat scurrying around in a city trash can, and she suddenly felt extremely disgusted...

“Ugh~~~”

The only remaining bamboo rat in his hand fell to the ground and was snatched away by the little white tiger who was staring at the barbecue.

Lin Xiao sighed and patted Zhao Liying on the back. "A bamboo rat is not a mouse. Didn't you see that this meat weighs seven or eight kilograms? What kind of mouse is this big?"

"Ugh, that's enough, stop talking," Zhao Liying slapped Lin Xiao's arm away, still feeling her stomach churning. "I'd rather starve to death than eat bamboo rats again."

"Uh, drink the coconut water then. You can't stand not eating. I can't take care of two people if you get sick again."
