Chapter 31 Encountering Ye Mei



I walked cautiously along the way, afraid that the water in the coconut bowl would spill out, but I didn't dare to slow down my steps, for I was afraid that something might happen to Qin Lan if I went back too late.

When I returned to the cave, everything was the same as when I left. Qin Lan was lying quietly on the bed. Perhaps she heard me coming back, and she waved her arm symbolically.

"Drink it quickly."

I quickly helped Qin Lan up so that she would look less weak.

"Hmm, that's so hard to drink."

Qin Lan just took a sip and then turned her head away in disgust. I can still clearly smell the taste of sea water, and that feeling is really unpleasant.

"Only by drinking this can the disease be cured. Just bear with it for now. I will think of a way after this period of time."

I knew in my heart that Qin Lan was not the kind of willful girl, so she drank the water obediently after hearing what I said.

After drinking, I let Qin Lan lie down and rest. After experiencing this incident, I also understood that it is indeed not appropriate to rely solely on eating fruits to survive.

"You should rest in the cave today. I'll go out and find some food. We won't eat wild fruits today."

I touched Qin Lan's pretty head lovingly.

But when I just walked out of the cave, I became worried again.

"Remember to take your gun and protect yourself when I'm not around."

After giving a few instructions, I took my tools and went out with peace of mind.

The only food I have seen on this island in the past few days is almost nothing except wild fruits and coconuts.

I had heard earlier that breadfruit trees are common in some tropical rain forests, but I haven't seen a single one in all the days I've been here.

I searched aimlessly for a long time, but I really didn't find anything to fill my stomach except a few fruits.

At least they are edible, so I put the fruit in my backpack.

I don’t know how long I walked, but I marked the trees along the way.

Before I knew it, I had arrived at the other side of the island. The dangers everywhere here were within my budget.

After half a month, I don’t know what happened to the other guys.

Just as I was looking around, a figure suddenly moved in front of me.

My instinctive vigilance made me hold the saber tightly in my hand.

But when the figure got closer and the face became clearer, I realized it was Ye Mei.

"Chen...Fade Chen?"

Ye Mei looked a little surprised when she saw me.

"Why are you here? Where is Mr. Qin?"

Seeing that I was alone, Ye Mei asked where Qin Lan was going.

"You are alone, aren't you? Where is your good brother?"

As for Qin Lan's whereabouts, I naturally didn't plan to tell Ye Mei, so I simply avoided the important point and changed the subject.

As for her younger brother Ye Bin, I naturally can't forget him. He was an ungrateful person who was rescued by us but now relies on us. Although I usually don't hold grudges, anyone would become petty if they were in this situation.

"My brother... woooo"

When Ye Bin was mentioned, Ye Mei couldn't help sobbing.

"Hey, hey, hey, don't try that on me. I won't fall for it."

The old tricks are so overused that I am disgusted with this woman.

"Why are you running here if you don't want to stay in the cave?"

Unable to bear the sound of this woman crying, I decided to take the opportunity to find a topic to avoid her.

"A few days ago, two men and one woman came to our cave and demanded that we give them our place without any explanation. Xiaobin got so angry that he started fighting with them and ended up getting injured. Now I've put him in a place to recuperate.

Listening to Ye Mei's description, I roughly guessed who the three-person team was. If it was as I expected, it should be Yan Hai and his two companions.

As the saying goes, people's hearts change, and they finally kept Yan Hai. Now I suddenly understand that the origins of these three people are really not that simple.

"Is your brother injured?"

Although I somewhat believed what Ye Mei said, I had heard the story of the boy who cried wolf at least a dozen times. This woman had deceived me, and I had already developed a barrier against her in my heart.

"Xiao Bin is seriously injured. I know you have experience, so could you please come with me to take a look?"

Ye Mei looked at me pleadingly, her face covered with tears, looking extremely miserable.

Haha, they want me to save Ye Bin. I don’t rule out the possibility that this might be a trap.

We have seen with our own eyes that Yan Hai has eaten human flesh. Now, as Ye Mei said, the brother and sister were driven out by those three people. If only Ye Bin was injured, then I really find it hard to believe.

"If you're willing to help me, I can share the food with you."

Seeing that I didn't respond, Ye Mei gradually became a little anxious.

When she mentioned sharing the food with me, I was really surprised. It turned out that the brother and sister were still living so well after so many days. It turned out that they had food.

"What kind of food? Wild fruits? I have plenty of them. Sorry, I don't like your food."

I casually picked up a fruit, took a bite, and then turned to leave.

"Wait a minute, you misunderstood. I can't possibly give you fruit to fool you."

Just as I was about to leave, Ye Mei called out to me, blocking my way.

Not fruit? I started to wonder. In a place like this, it was hard for me to imagine what kind of food she would bring out besides fruit.

"If it's not fruit, then what is it?"

"yes…"

Ye Mei looked up, glanced at me, then lowered her head again. She hesitated for a long time but couldn't say what it was.
