Chapter 34 Chapter 34 Okay, we don’t have to go home tonight…
The five o'clock sunlight was tinged with a faint orange-red.
Qin Du really didn't expect that Liu Jingheng could play from nine in the morning to five in the afternoon and didn't even want to eat lunch.
Qin Du couldn't figure out what kind of brain structure could produce such a tenacious talent.
It was Penny, who was groaning with hunger, who awakened Liu Jingheng's conscience.
There wasn't much good food in the amusement park, so the two chose a fast-food restaurant and ordered a dish of boiled meat without oil or salt for Penny.
Liu Jingheng does everything slowly, like a sloth. She chews twice, stops to think about life, and then continues chewing.
"Don't you want to eat?" He looked at the indifferent Qin Du and asked.
Qin Du pulled up his mask:
"No appetite."
Liu Jingheng lowered her head and continued to chew while thinking about life.
After more than ten minutes, he finally picked up the conversation:
"You look a lot like someone I know."
Qin Du raised his eyes faintly: "Who."
Liu Jingheng said simply: "My master."
Qin Du sneered.
Owner?
"Are you still living in the Qing Dynasty?"
A mocking remark, Liu Jingheng took it seriously again:
"No. Duck~"
"My master." Qin Du didn't ask, and Liu Jingheng began to introduce him. "The whole family is afraid of him. He's not sociable and has a cold personality."
Qin Du listened, his fierce brows gradually furrowed.
"But he's just like you, cold on the outside but warm on the inside." Liu Jingheng raised her eyes and fixed her gaze on Qin Du's face, trying to see his expression through the mask.
Qin Du raised his face, the shadow of his hat brim covered his deep eyes, and the slightly upturned corners of his eyes made him look a bit arrogant and domineering.
"He's actually a good man." Liu Jingheng picked up the well-fed Penny. "I told him I liked animals, so he traveled across mountains and rivers to find me a kitten, and also Penny."
Penny looked at Qin Du, sticking out her tongue, her wide mouth shaped like a heart.
"But I know that Penny didn't pick it up." Liu Jingheng said again.
Qin Du's brows paused, and he suddenly looked at Liu Jingheng from the shadows.
"I saw a video before, and a breed like Penny costs thirty to fifty thousand yuan at the cheapest."
Qin Du rested his chin with one hand and placed the other on the edge of the table, tapping the table surface twice with his slender fingers.
Liu Jingheng hugged the puppy tightly, her gaze wandering through the air, not knowing where it landed.
"I want to do something for him, too."
Qin Du opened his lips slightly and was about to say "No thanks".
"So I've thought about it for a long time." Liu Jingheng raised her eyes, very seriously, "Wait three years after his death, and you can also help him erect a monument, because no one likes him and it will be easy for people to forget him."
Qin Du slowly turned his face away.
I really didn’t expect this, Liu Jingheng.
The sky outside the window is like the deepest orange in the paint box.
Qin Du saw that Liu Jingheng had finally finished the small plate of food and stood up:
"go home."
Liu Jingheng held the chopsticks and asked in confusion: "Whose house are we going back to?"
"Everyone goes back to his own home."
Behind the amusement park is a natural lake where large flocks of golden-billed ducks float on the surface of the lake in the molten gold of the sunset.
The whole world seemed to have lost its sound at this special time of the day.
The two walked along the lake to the back door.
Liu Jingheng took two steps and stopped again.
Qin Du didn't have eyes at the back of his head, but the moment Liu Jingheng stopped, he felt as if there was less sound in his ears. He turned his head and saw Liu Jingheng standing beside a row of small boats in a daze.
Qin Du said: "You continue to enjoy it, I'm leaving."
Although he said this, his feet remained firmly stuck to the ground.
"Boats." Liu Jingheng pointed to a row of small boats. "Twenty-one."
Qin Du said nothing. He knew that no matter what he said, Liu Jingheng would be able to pick up the thread with her brain circuit. As long as Liu Jingheng opened her mouth, the boat trip on the lake was inevitable.
If the enemy doesn't move, I won't move either. Our eyes met silently through the afterglow of the sunset.
The battle was so fierce that the sky was dark and the sand and rocks were flying.
Liu Jingheng kept pointing like this for ten minutes. By the end, her fingers were shaking.
Almost a century passed, and Qin Du let out a heavy sigh.
Qin Du's words, "We'll leave in a short while," caused Liu Jingheng's lifeless eyes to gradually open wide, and a layer of bright orange-red floated in them.
When Qin Du paid the money, he felt deeply regretful.
I shouldn't have come today, and I shouldn't have agreed to go boating with him.
Because among so many beautiful boats, he chose a duck-shaped boat.
The vendor helped to untie the hemp rope, and kept saying:
"It's getting dark soon. Please row for a while and come up quickly."
Liu Jingheng walked and got on the boat carefully.
The old-fashioned boat was a product from more than ten years ago. It could only be pedaled and equipped with two oars, which surprised Qin Du.
I can’t believe that in 2025, there are still such semi-automatic machines.
He sat on the boat and felt that he had no obligation to use the pedals to start the boat. Liu Jingheng loved rowing so much, so he could do it himself.
Liu Jingheng lived up to everyone's expectations, and the straight and simple action processor took the duck boat straight onto the stone bridge.
Qin Du blinked his eyes, raised his legs elegantly, and gently pressed his knees against Liu Jingheng's legs, stopping him from kicking hard and making the ignorant decision to try to break the stone bridge to pass.
"You work so hard, I'm afraid I won't be able to go home tonight." Qin Du and Liu Jingheng switched positions and stepped on the pedals.
Liu Jingheng said seriously: "It's okay, you can live in my house."
Qin Du: "..."
The duck boat is a power-storage type. After pedaling for a while and accumulating enough power, Qin Du freed his feet and let the boat drift quietly on the lake.
It seemed like it was the first time that Penny saw such a big lake. She stood up and held the edge of the boat, looking around curiously, wading in circles with her little tail.
Liu Jingheng held her chin, looking at the ancient tower not far away that was gradually disappearing in the dusk, and the voice in her heart gradually became louder.
This should be the happiest day he has ever had.
We rode the carousel, ate junk food, and took a boat ride.
When the fantasy suddenly comes true, there is a sense of emptiness and vagueness, and it always feels not so real.
His body, which was slightly tense due to the rocking of the boat, slowly relaxed as the boat drifted farther and farther away.
His head swayed like an unsupported ball, then lightly bumped into Qin Du's shoulder.
Qin Du frowned and looked over.
Liu Jingheng seemed to be asleep, with his eyes closed. Against the sky-blue sky, his row of curled eyelashes appeared even thicker, shading his slightly bluish eyelids.
Against the backdrop of the surroundings, the small mole on the tip of the nose appears even more red, embedded in the sickly pale face, like the last dance before the sunset in the afterglow.
Qin Du gently clenched his fingers on his knees, briefly withdrew his gaze from Liu Jingheng's face, and then looked over at her blatantly again.
During the Qingming Festival, he could have abandoned Liu Jingheng after she fell into the water, but he took a step back and carried her back to the villa.
Liu Jingheng was not good at playing games and did not follow instructions, so it was understandable that he was scolded. Because of a word from the opponent, he put aside all the important work at hand and issued a "solo practice" invitation exclusive to elementary school students;
Boring Werewolf, the Qin family's first competition, meeting netizens, these things should not appear in his life, but he always bowed his head and compromised at Liu Jingheng's casual words or eyes.
All the difficult problems seemed to have vague clues as the sun set.
He knew very well what kind of person Liu Jingheng was.
For the sake of money, he betrayed the concern of his friends and even his own health and returned the hospital with a refund;
In order to marry into a wealthy family, one deliberately creates various opportunities for oneself, even if they are very bad and even if they are despised by others.
Thinking of this, Qin Du moved his shoulders, trying to push Liu Jingheng's head aside.
Liu Jingheng half opened her eyes, her eyelashes trembled, and finally she closed her eyes deeply, arched her head upwards, and nestled into the crook of Qin Du's neck, finding a more comfortable position.
Qin Du's originally furrowed brows slowly relaxed because of this action.
He raised his eyes and looked at the round fireball that gradually merged into the night, and waves of fatigue surged into his mind.
The warm wind brushed past his ears, like a gentle reminder, causing him to relax his guard and take off his indestructible armor.
Qin Du took a last look at the small crimson mole on the tip of Liu Jingheng's nose, tilted his head slightly, and leaned against Liu Jingheng's head, closing his eyes without any defense.
…
"Woof woof!"
“Crash—”
Liu Jingheng slowly opened her eyes.
He couldn't figure out for a moment whether it was Penny's rapid screams, the unfamiliar sound of huge waves, or the violent shaking feeling from under him that woke him up.
The deep darkness pressed down heavily from above, and the warm breeze of May disappeared, replaced by a biting cold wind.
Liu Jingheng looked around.
Liu Jingheng lowered his head and thought for a while.
Thinking fails and the brain crashes.
Qin Du, who was beside her, was also awakened by Penny's cry. When he opened his eyes, his pupils dilated.
It is true that he was not on guard and fell asleep.
Unexpectedly, it is true that the water of the Yellow River comes from the sky and flows into the sea without returning.
Qin Du glanced at his watch. From five in the afternoon to ten in the evening, five hours of baby-like sleep, the small boat they were riding on quietly drifted along the lake into the vast ocean.
Liu Jingheng pondered for nearly a century before finally reacting:
"You actually fell asleep."
Qin Du took out his cell phone and said without raising his head:
"If I remember correctly, you went to bed first."
Sure enough, there were more than a dozen missed calls from Uncle Li on the phone, and nothing else.
Qin Du remembered what Liu Jingheng said, "Because no one likes him, he is easily forgotten."
The sea was windy and rough at night, and their small boat seemed to be made of paper, rising and falling with the waves.
"Have a seat." Qin Du said, and casually dialed Uncle Li's number.
The phone rang for a long time, and the last response he got was "The number you dialed is currently unavailable."
Qin Du looked around and confirmed that they had drifted to the deep sea area. Usually, it was low tide at this time, and the possibility of drifting back to the coast with the tide was almost zero.
"Boss." Liu Jingheng suddenly called him softly.
Qin Du looked up and asked with his eyes.
"I think we don't need to go home for dinner tonight." As he said this, he pointed his finger not far away.
Qin Du looked in the direction of his finger, and the next second, his usually calm expression changed subtly.
On the sea surface a hundred meters away, huge waves built a terrifying high wall, rising up to the sky like clouds, with no end in sight, and rushing towards the tiny duck boat.
"Liu Jingheng." Qin Du gritted his teeth.
Liu Jingheng: "I'm here."
"Say something nice to me."
"Let me think..."
At this moment, the insignificance and fragility of human beings in the face of nature are more vividly revealed.
The huge waves kept pushing the sea water, which was bottomless in the dark night and came overwhelmingly.
Qin Du looked up at the huge wave that was about to come down, and suddenly he put his arm around Liu Jingheng's shoulders, covered his mouth and nose with his other hand, and shouted coldly:
"Don't breathe."
Before the last word was completely uttered, it was drowned by the sudden huge wave.
The overwhelming sea water rushed down from the sky and hit the fragile duck boat hard. All the buoyancy and gravity at this moment were against the existence of gravity, and the duck boat was instantly submerged.
The two people in the boat were hit by the waves and fell out of the duck boat.
Penny did a Thomas spin in mid-air and fell into the sea with a wail.
The sea swallowed up the white duck boat, chewed it, found it unpalatable, and spat it out. A few fragmented white wooden boards appeared on the sea surface.
At this moment, Liu Jingheng felt as if there was a huge hand above his head, squeezing his body and pressing it to the bottom of the sea with irresistible force. Everything in front of his eyes was dark, and the hand that was originally covering his mouth and nose was also washed away by this irresistible force.
The sea water rushed into his body, squeezing his internal organs and causing unbearable pain.
He sighed softly in his heart.
This is the fate of a cannon fodder, but if it does, no one will remember to erect a monument for him.
What a pity.
My body keeps falling, and I don’t know where it will end.
My consciousness began to blur. It was so cold at the bottom of the sea.
Suddenly, he felt a sharp pain in his right hand, and then another force pulled him upwards.
In this way, two forces pulled him up and down, neither of them gave in, and they bullied him alone, almost tearing his body in two.
Liu Jingheng is almost dying×2
Before he transmigrated into the book, he received critical illness notices countless times, and was on the verge of death time and time again, but there was always an angel in white who snatched him back from the hands of death at the speed of life and death.
This time it’s very serious. Even if the most powerful angel in white in the world comes, they will be helpless and will have to sacrifice themselves.
My head was hazy with thoughts, and I felt a sharp pain in my waist as if it was being pulled from both above and below.
“Crash!”
Suddenly, I felt a pain on the top of my head, and my whole body was rushed out of the sea with an inexplicable force.
Liu Jingheng took a deep breath, and this time, what she inhaled was no longer dirty sea water.
The air above the sea is salty, fishy and sweet.
Only then did he realize that he had been pulled up from the sea by the big guy.
The night was dark, and Liu Jingheng tried hard to open her wet eyes and look over.
All that could be seen was a mass of white flesh clinging to the planks of the duck boat that had been broken by the sea.
The boss's heavy breathing came to my ears.
Liu Jingheng understood that he had not yet completed his mission of traveling through the book, and God was unwilling to accept him.
When the two were about to run out of strength, they were washed onto a small island in the sea by a huge wave.
Liu Jingheng felt a pain in her heart and head. She was too weak to close her eyes and had no energy to think about the next step.
The only thing in his mind was the boss's words "Don't breathe", so he held his breath and concentrated his energy. Even after getting ashore, he had to follow the doctor's orders.
But he felt a rhythmic pressure on his abdomen, and before he could figure out what was happening, something cold and soft covered his lips, breathing into his mouth.
Liu Jingheng slowly opened her eyes, pressed her tongue against the man's lips, and pushed them outwards:
"You molested me."
Qin Du's hand paused.
He straightened up and looked down at Liu Jingheng's pale face.
But seeing that Liu Jingheng was not as lively as ever, at least she was as abnormal as before, Qin Du breathed a sigh of relief.
He loosened his collar and ran his fingers through his wet hair, pushing it back.
"It was you who insisted on taking the boat, so you have to endure the molestation." Qin Du's voice was a little hoarse and full of fatigue.
Liu Jingheng sat up and looked around in the night.
All you can vaguely see are the white foam splashed by the waves around you, and the branches that look like ghost hands in the moonlight.
"Where is this?" he asked.
Qin Du: "Thanks to you, we don't have to go home for dinner tonight."
Liu Jingheng was silent for a moment, then said softly:
"Okay, but I'm hungry."
Qin Du paused for a moment, then slowly closed his eyes.
He squatted down, grabbed the back of Liu Jingheng's head and pushed it forward.
Liu Jingheng didn't know what he was going to do next, so she let him kiss her forehead deeply.
Qin Du let him go and said:
"Don't worry about eating now."
At this time, Qin Du's hands were wet and cold, and his perception of temperature was no longer sharp, so he could only use his lips to test whether Liu Jingheng had a fever.
Uncle Li had mentioned several times before that Liu Jingheng was weak and easily got sick.
Liu Jingheng watched Qin Du stand up for a long time, then raised her hand and touched her forehead.
Qin Du walked a little further, to a place with a wider view and fuller moonlight. He touched his pocket and found that his cell phone had been washed away.
Not to mention the masks and hats on the faces.
It was not a problem that the light was too dim to see her face clearly now. When the sun rose, he could imagine what embarrassing words Liu Jingheng would say in a calm tone.
Qin Du raised his hand and tugged at his shirt, which was wet and sticky to his body, making him uncomfortable.
As I pulled, my fingers suddenly felt something smooth.
He looked down and saw that the sunglasses he had brought with him when he went out were still hanging on his collar.
Liu Jingheng sat there, waiting obediently.
The boss told him not to move, so he didn't move at all.
About half a minute later, the boss came back with a bunch of branches in his hands and threw them on the ground.
Drilling wood to make fire is done in one go.
Liu Jingheng stared at the flickering flames. Oh, I still don't know what the boss looks like. Dahai should have already helped take off his mask and hat.
Liu Jingheng leaned forward and stared at——
Liu Jingheng: ...
Why do you need to wear sunglasses so late at night? Can you see the road clearly?
He lowered his head in thought.
I've seen the eyes, and now I've seen the nose and mouth, and I'm trying to piece them together.
Liu Jingheng was like a lifeless sculpture, even her breathing had stopped.
After a long time, he relaxed his body, his eyes became unfocused, and he entered standby mode.
Simple single-core processors cannot handle overly complex instructions and fail to piece together.
After installing the sculpture for a long time, Liu Jingheng finally remembered the important matter that needed to be resolved urgently.
He put his index finger in his mouth and licked it.
After being soaked in sea water, it becomes salty.
Qin Du, who was on the opposite side, was throwing branches into the fire and saw this scene when he looked up.
Qin Du: ...
He thought Liu Jingheng had become stupid after being soaked in sea water and was experiencing reflexive infertility.
The result is not.
The fingertips, wet with saliva, stretched straight towards his lips.
Qin Du stepped back and opened his hand:
"do what."
"You're injured." Liu Jingheng looked at the scratch on the corner of his lip and said seriously, "Dean Dad said that saliva can be used for disinfection."
"Can anyone who talks nonsense be your father?" Qin Du's voice became a little colder.
Liu Jingheng didn't understand, so she tilted her head and looked at him with a puzzled look.
But for now, let God do the thinking.
He stretched forward his saliva-soaked hand again:
“Practice is the sole criterion for testing truth.”
Qin Du raised his hand, not bothering to push it away again, it would not be a big deal.
But his hand just stopped in mid-air.
In the flickering firelight, the outlines of Liu Jingheng's facial features became more distinct. In the interweaving of light and shadow, her brows, which were originally only slightly furrowed, seemed to be twisted all the way to the center of her eyebrows.
He pursed his lips tightly, as if saying, "If you don't let me practice today, I'll fight you."
Qin Du sighed softly.
He finally understood that although Liu Jingheng looked silly, he was actually more stubborn than a donkey.
He firmly believed that if he didn't agree to his request today, he might be covered in saliva after falling asleep.
Qin Du leaned down and moved his cheek closer to him.
But he looked away, clearly showing some impatience.
The moist touch passed around the corner of his mouth, and a faint stinging sensation came from the abrasion.
After the stinging pain, there was the feeling of cool fingers gently touching the wound.
Qin Du leaned forward and half-closed his eyes.
Liu Jingheng withdrew her finger with satisfaction and took a look. There was a thin layer of blood on the fingertip.
He raised his finger to put it in his mouth, but Qin Du quickly stopped him.
"You have no concept of hygiene?"
Liu Jingheng wiped the blood from her fingers onto her clothes and confessed:
"right."
Qin Du lowered his eyes, his eyelashes covered with shadows.
He usually deals with elites. Sometimes those elites don't even need to say anything, they can understand his thoughts with just a glance.
It turns out that communicating with fools is really tiring.
"I'm hungry." A fool's life goal is always to satisfy his immediate appetite.
"Find a way yourself." Qin Du said ruthlessly.
Liu Jingheng stood up, patted his pants, and walked towards the beach step by step.
Qin Du made up his mind that he would not indulge him this time.
Glancing over, I saw Liu Jingheng wading barefoot through the waves, bending down to pick something up, and coming back happily.
He went back dejectedly.
The shells are then thrown back into the sea.
These scallops were very cunning. They escaped in one swift move, causing him to waste his time.
Qin Du held his cheek with his hands, his eyes deep.
Then, a slight smile appeared on the corner of his lips.
At this time, Liu Jingheng was standing on the beach, scratching his head.gif
Why is his sea-hunting different from the one in the video?
After searching for most of the day, he returned still starving.
He wasn't actually hungry because he had eaten a lot at dinner, but he guessed that the boss must be hungry.
He didn't eat lunch, and he didn't dare to take off his mask for dinner. He didn't drink a drop of water the whole day. What if the boss died before him? He wouldn't be able to explain to the police, and there would be no one to help him erect a tombstone.
The hungry boss was still waiting for him to return victoriously, so it would be embarrassing to go back empty-handed.
Liu Jingheng paced back and forth on the beach like a sad robot.
Not far behind him, Qin Du put down his hand that was supporting his chin and stood up.
Liu Jingheng was tired of walking, so she stood facing the sea and thought about life.jpg
“Bang!”
Suddenly something hit his calf.
Looking down, I saw it was a swordfish, struggling to twist its body, but it lay dead in a short while.
Liu Jingheng picked up the fish and thought for a long time. He could only regard it as a gift from God and walked back happily with the fish in his hand.
The fish was thrown to Qin Du's feet, and Liu Jingheng held his head high:
"It's too late today. I can catch more tomorrow."
Come on, praise me.
Qin Du raised his eyes, raised his eyebrows meaningfully, and clapped his hands softly:
"God will bless those who work hard."
A slight blush appeared on Liu Jingheng's expressionless face.
Being praised.
That's great. I want to be with you forever.
*
It is an uninhabited island with not even a passing ship.
There is no communication, no food or water, and the future is uncertain.
When Liu Jingheng woke up, she suddenly felt sad.
He had forgotten about Petunia.
Penny was the first gift he received since he grew up, but because of his stubbornness in insisting on rowing, he lost a little life.
Hunger and thirst were no longer enough to compare to the sadness of losing Penny.
Qin Du came back from picking wild fruits in the woods and saw Liu Jingheng sitting next to the extinguished firewood with her knees hugged. She looked like a line figure that had not yet been colored, shrouded in dark clouds.
He wiped the wild fruit and threw it to Liu Jingheng:
"have eaten."
Liu Jingheng held the wild fruit in her arms, feeling even sadder:
"That puppy loves to eat this kind of fruit the most..."
Qin Du glared at him:
"Don't force yourself to act like this. This is wild fruit. Penny has never eaten it."
Liu Jingheng: "That's right."
After a while, he raised his head and asked: "How did you know?"
Qin Du's heart skipped a beat and he turned his head away:
"This kind of common sense, do you have to get along with each other to know it?"
"I mean, how do you know it's called Penny?" Liu Jingheng was sometimes a very good student, diligent and persevering. "I didn't tell you."
Qin Du: "..."
"Because of the dog, it's either Penny or Wangcai."
Liu Jingheng lowered her head and continued to grieve:
"I see."
"Don't be sad." Qin Du said softly, "I'll buy you another one when I get home."
Liu Jingheng sighed.
He wanted to say that this was different. Compared to losing the baby, he felt more guilty about not taking good care of the little life. Penny must have been very scared when she was struggling in the sea.
Qin Du looked at him for a long time and then raised his head.
The sky was gray and the dark clouds were so low that they seemed to be very close.
"Let's go, it's going to rain soon." Qin Du said.
Liu Jingheng stood up precariously and followed Qin Du silently into the depths of the forest.
Heavy rain poured down, strong winds and huge waves rose on the sea, and the water level around the island continued to rise.
Although there were branches and leaves above their heads to block the rain, they still inevitably got wet.
Although Liu Jingheng was not very energetic, he still knew to pick a potato leaf to keep out the rain.
To say he was energetic, most of the taro leaves covered Qin Du's head.
If I can't take good care of Penny, I have to take good care of someone else.
After walking for too long, Liu Jingheng's heart was overloaded, so she slowed down and stopped.
He held onto the tree trunk, breathing heavily. The heart medicine he had brought with him had long since been lost to the sea.
Qin Du also stopped and turned around:
"What do you want to do now?"
Liu Jingheng was silent for a moment, then touched the small notebook around her neck.
Very good, I can’t make out a single word.
He was too tired and wanted the boss to carry him, but the boss was busy with his own affairs and he felt embarrassed.
The chaotic brain tried hard to search for words related to "Green Tea Quotes".
I vaguely seemed to remember one thing. I glanced at it casually when searching for quotations in order to continue what Cheng Yunqing said.
You must be very tired. Doesn't your girlfriend/boyfriend usually care about you? But I'm not yours, so I don't have the right to show concern for you, even though I'm really anxious.
Unable to remember the original words, Liu Jingheng's poor brain could only piece together the words that she remembered as best she could.
After patching it up, it became:
"I'm very tired, please take care of me, it's urgent."
I have the impression that there are two "cares" in this sentence, so that should be correct.
Qin Du glared at him for a while, then snorted coldly.
There is only one person in the world who is so shameless and open about it.
He wanted to turn around and leave, but he noticed Liu Jingheng's pale face and her obviously noisy breathing.
He just turned around and left.
After taking only two steps, he stopped.
Liu Jingheng seemed to be soaked.
He clearly picked a potato leaf and said it was a small umbrella given to him by nature.
Qin Du's gaze swept downward.
I felt childish for not picking leaves to shield myself from the rain, but my body was actually clean, with only a few dark raindrops occasionally visible.
Qin Du turned his toes and the man who never looked back set out on the way he came.
He walked to Liu Jingheng, leaned over, and his voice was like the cold rain above his head:
"Umbrella, open it."
Liu Jingheng skillfully climbed onto Qin Du's back and diligently supported herself with the taro leaves.
After taking two steps, he said again: "Can't you hold me? The rain is falling on me."
Qin Du glanced at him out of the corner of his eye, put him down, and picked him up horizontally.
Liu Jingheng was shivering from the cold, and tremblingly lifted the taro leaves above Qin Du's head.
Liu Jingheng: "Thank you."
"Just shut up and show your gratitude to me."
Liu Jingheng immediately bit her lips.
Qin Du said that heavy rain would cause the sea level to rise, and the water level around the island would also rise. The place where they had stayed before would soon be submerged. The most urgent thing was to find a cave or something that could shelter them from the wind and rain.
The greatest fortune in life is to follow one's heart and get what one desires. After walking for an hour or so, they actually discovered a cave.
Qin Du put the man down and went into the cave to explore the situation. After making sure there were no snakes, insects, or wolves, he pulled Liu Jingheng in.
Although it was cool in the cave, compared to the heavy rain outside, it was already a warm mansion.
Liu Jingheng sat inside obediently, holding her chest with her hands, taking slow, deep breaths to soothe her beating heart.
Qin Du stood at the entrance of the cave, looked up at the heavy rain falling like beads, and his wet fingers lightly brushed the scar at the corner of his lips.
It's the second day of being stranded on a desert island.
At sea, he couldn't determine his direction and his cell phone had fallen into the deep sea.
Qin Du smiled.
Following Liu Jingheng, you can see everything.
"A-choo!" A loud sound came from the cave.
Qin Du casually propped up the potato leaves and collected some rainwater for future use.
He entered the cave and saw Liu Jingheng hugging her body and shivering, rubbing her nose with her fingers.
Qin Du frowned and reached out his hand.
He retracted his wet fingers again.
He held Liu Jingheng's cheeks with both hands and kissed his forehead deeply.
He closed his eyes and carefully felt the other person's body temperature, and his brows furrowed even deeper.
Like a burning fire. Liu Jingheng has a fever.
It turned out that his body was as fragile as Uncle Li said.
Liu Jingheng didn't know whether she was sleepy or confused due to the fever, her body kept twisting.
"Liu Jingheng." Qin Du supported his body and said in a serious tone, "You are not allowed to sleep."
Catching a high fever on a deserted island is like finding yourself at a dead end.
Liu Jingheng responded in a daze, her wet clothes sticking to her body, and she was shaking uncontrollably.
Qin Du looked outside the cave and saw a heavy rain soaking all the tools that could start a fire.
After thinking for a moment, he took off his shirt, wrung it out, and wiped the water droplets off his body.
Then he squatted down, grabbed Liu Jingheng's collar with both hands, pulled it to both sides, and threw the clothes aside.
In the darkness, Qin Du's still warm body gently wrapped around Liu Jingheng's damp and cold skin.
Liu Jingheng had a dream. In the dream, he was in an extremely cold iceberg and snowfield. He could not find any food or water. He could only lie powerlessly in the snow, waiting for the cold wind to blow away his remaining vitality.
He thought of his father, the director of the hospital, who smoked one cigarette after another late at night in order to raise money for his surgery.
He also remembered the couple who left him without looking back on a rainy night when he was a child, and the crocodile toy that was so old that it couldn't be any older.
Liu Jingheng sobbed.
He is not afraid of death, he should have died long ago.
But when we really face death, we still feel a little reluctant to leave this world.
He didn't even have the time to say goodbye to Uncle Li properly, nor was he able to raise Cube and Penny personally. When he received the gift from President Qin, he didn't even have the time to say a sincere thank you.
He is always slow and slow in doing anything. Even the simplest truth requires him to think for a long time.
Even if you run as hard as you can, you can only barely catch up with the exhaust gas left by others, and live in a daze like this.
"Don't cry, baby." A voice suddenly sounded from the cave.
It seems to come from a very far away place, yet it seems to be very close.
Liu Jingheng sniffed and sobbed even louder.
When you are sad, you can chew and swallow your emotions by yourself. What you should be afraid of is that if someone comforts you at this time, you will not be able to help but ruminate on the emotions.
A soft sigh came from above my head, followed by a voice that tried to be quiet:
"Liu Jingheng is the best. She can cry so passionately."
Liu Jingheng:?
This voice sounds familiar.
Very much like Mr. Qin.
But he couldn't connect such a gentle tone with Mr. Qin's cold face.
Liu Jingheng concentrated all her strength on her eyelids and opened them wetly.
What caught my eye were two dark brown lenses.
If you feel it carefully, you will find that although your body is cold, it seems to be warm at the same time.
Liu Jingheng blinked, lowered her chin and rested it on a strong arm.
"Why did you molest me again..." Feeling wronged and sad.
Qin Du: "Shut up."
Liu Jingheng: "Okay."
He pressed Liu Jingheng's body hard into his arms, and the exposed skin under his palms gradually became warm.
"Thank you." Liu Jingheng couldn't help but open her mouth.
Although he was slow, he was not stupid. He knew that the boss was using his body temperature to keep him warm in the extreme environment.
Even if the big boss took advantage of him, he could accept it.
Liu Jingheng raised her hot hands and gently stroked the boss's smooth back in the dim light. She found his strong and thin waist and clasped her hands together.
"This is the only way to reduce your fever now. I'll go out and see if I can find some herbs to dispel the cold. We don't know how long we'll have to stay here. Before that, you're not allowed to die." The boss's voice was hard.
Liu Jingheng buried her cheek in Qin Du's chest muscles and nodded.
The rain didn't stop until the afternoon. Liu Jingheng kept waking up and falling asleep, her head still in a daze.
Qin Du felt his forehead, and although it was still burning, it was not as hot as before.
He wanted to go out to find some herbs, but he was afraid that Liu Jingheng would not obey him and fall asleep.
Just put the clothes on the person and carry him on his back.
Although Qin Du is a precious flower grown in a greenhouse, it seems that there is nothing in the world that he doesn't know.
He knew that there was a common herb called tonggucao in the area where he lived, which was very effective in treating colds, inducing sweating and relieving muscle pain. This herb generally grew in moist places such as ditches, fields, hillside forest edges, and grasslands.
Qin Du carried Liu Jingheng on his back and searched bit by bit along the bushes.
Liu Jingheng kept coughing on his back, and her already thin body was now as thin as a piece of paper.
Every time he coughed, Qin Du would pat his little butt from behind, as if to comfort him.
Qin Du pushed aside a patch of thorns and saw an egg-shaped green plant with fine soft hairs on its surface among a patch of colorful plants.
Qin Du's tense body relaxed, and he tilted his face slightly:
"Liu Jingheng, you are saved."
He stretched out his hand and was about to pick the bone-penetrating grass.
"Shuashua——"
Suddenly there was a rustling sound in the grass.
Qin Du withdrew his hand, slowed down his pace and slowly backed away.
Although wolves, tigers and leopards are not common on deserted islands in the sea, there is no shortage of deadly poisonous creatures.
And this rustling sound is obviously not something that ordinary insects or small creatures can make.
"Liu Jingheng." Qin Du lowered his voice.
"Hmm..." Liu Jingheng forced her eyes open and responded weakly.
"I'm going back to the cave now, can you hold on?"
Liu Jingheng: "Okay..."
The rustling sound in the grass became louder and closer.
Qin Du stared at the swaying grass and held Liu Jingheng's waist tightly.
"Hold on tight."
Qin Du turned around and took a step with his long legs——
"Hmm..." Suddenly, a small voice of grievance came from behind the two of them.
Liu Jingheng suddenly opened her eyes.
