Chapter 164 It's not fear, it's guilt

Jiang Zhiyue ran away and was busy looking for Chu Junche.

After searching for a long time, Chu Junche stayed leisurely by the stream, happily picking wild flowers.

Seeing her coming, he smiled brightly and handed her the bouquet of colorful wild flowers in his hand.

"Zhiyue! I picked this especially for you. Do you like it?"

Jiang Zhiyue breathed a sigh of relief, feeling relieved to see that he was okay, and quickly led Chu Junche onto the boat.

Chu Junche firmly put the flowers into her hands, blushed and said, "Zhiyue, this is the first time I give flowers to a girl."

After a while, everyone arrived.

As the cruise ship's loud whistle sounded until it slowly sailed away from the coast, all the scenes on the deserted island shrank little by little in my eyes until nothing could be seen, as if heralding the end of everything.

Perhaps it’s because life is too hard that many people cannot get rid of this strong feeling of detachment, as if their energy has been drained away.

So many students were standing on the deck, shivering in the sea breeze, but their bodies did not react at all.

Distorted, empty, unreal.

Just a few days ago, they were freezing and hungry, complaining about the lack of clean water and food, and forcing themselves to eat disgusting food.

On the cruise ship, after crossing the Danube Strait, the communication equipment was restored to the network. A ding-dong message popped up, and everyone returned to the modern era from primitive society.

"I'm so tired and hungry. I really want to lie in bed and sleep for ten days and ten nights." I don't know who spoke first.

Everyone was exhausted physically and mentally. One boy fell asleep on the deck and said before going to sleep, "I hope this is not a dream. If I wake up and find myself back on that broken island, I will commit suicide."

"Please, please stop toying with us. We are going crazy from being tortured!"

They were a group of rich young men who had never experienced hardship. It could be called a miracle that they could survive on the island for more than 20 days.

The blue sky and white clouds float lightly in the air, as if they were a feather gently blown by the wind.

It was unbelievably quiet on the cruise ship.

Everyone is resting.

Jiang Zhiyue charged her phone, which kept vibrating. She quickly replied to Jiang Wanrou to let her know she was safe.

Messages on LINS keep popping up.

Someone posted a photo with a blue sea and a haggard face.

[It’s finally over, I’m free! ]

This event was very grand.

During the more than 20 days that they were isolated from the world, many mainstream media outlets reported on this incident.

The media hyped it up, saying that this was an absolutely fair and just test, which allowed the nobles to lose their privileges for the first time, temper their wills, and survive in hardship.

The previous groups of students who had completed the activities all posted photos on social media platforms as evidence.

They were all in a miserable state and had been tortured terribly.

Jiang Zhiyue saw Cui Miaomiao’s lins and sent a few crying emojis, [//crying//help, this is the first time I’ve eaten roasted grasshoppers in my life, who understands...]

Cui Miaomiao also sent her several private messages: [Zhiyue, are you still not done with your activities? Why don’t we have a group? We are classmates. Aww, it must be because the music department joined and took my place! ]

[Zhiyue, you didn't expect that Zuo Qing would be in the same group with me. She is such a kind girl, and likes to help others just like you.]

[Zhiyue, there is a storm at sea today. I have arrived home safely, but I have bad news for you. The boat that will pick you up will be delayed.]

[Zhiyue, do you want to go out and play during the winter vacation? If you don’t have time, then we’ll see you when school starts. ]

【Zhiyue, I wish you peace and a speedy return. 】

Jiang Zhiyue was in a trance for a moment, thinking about what happened on the deserted island and what happened in the public school.

Those people who originally planned to stay away from each other, she and him had some inexplicable interactions since they boarded the cruise ship.

Jiang Zhiyue thought of Chu Junyue.

He finally listened to her prayers.

Her tent was far away from Chu Junyue's. Ever since Gu Zhaoye sneaked into her tent at night, the man's tent appeared next to her the next day.

For this reason, Gu Zhaoye even complained that Chu Junyue had a hobby of eavesdropping. When Gu Zhaoye kissed her secretly, Chu Junyue would stand in the distance and watch them without blinking.

If he frowned, Gu Zhaoye would restrain himself.

It's not fear, it's guilt.

Chu Junyue has a special identity. His father is an upright and strong-willed man. Chu Junyue has inherited this character to a certain extent. In front of serious people, Gu Zhaoye is not allowed to play too much.

Jiang Zhiyue replied to the message and opened the anonymous reward post.

The pure gray avatar becomes offline.

After she refused to pay five million, the other party no longer responded.

Jiang Zhiyue was a little tired. After washing up, she lay on the bed, trying to relax herself, but she tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.

She didn't know why, even though everything was over, her nerves were still tense and her brain couldn't stop thinking, recalling what had happened during this period over and over again.

Chu Junyue's promise and Xiao Jingrun's words made Chu Junche fall into a pit.

The scenes keep changing.

She finally fell asleep, and when it was time for dinner, her body had already developed a biological clock and could wake up at a fixed time.

It was already completely dark outside, and the entire cruise ship was shrouded in darkness.

Jiang Zhiyue made a simple sandwich in the kitchen. Gu Zhaoye hadn't woken up yet, so she preheated the food in the oven.

Everyone is still resting.

The huge cruise ship is empty and quiet.

Jiang Zhiyue returned along the same route. A gust of cold wind blew and she sneezed.

Turning around, I found that fog had suddenly risen on the sea, making it hazy and giving people a vague and chaotic feeling.

She had a bad feeling and involuntarily quickened her pace and hurried back to her room.

However, every time she took a step forward in the quiet corridor, fog suddenly appeared in the cabin, like a wisp of smoke, filling the entire cabin in the blink of an eye.

Every door was shut, and everybody was fast asleep.

Jiang Zhiyue stood in the curling white smoke and quickly covered her mouth and nose. In an instant, she couldn't even tell the direction.

Her heart skipped a beat, and she thought to herself that something was wrong, so she ran towards the exit.

Before she could run a few steps, she felt exhausted.

At this moment, none of the students on the entire cruise ship who were in deep sleep noticed the light smoke spreading in the room.

As the smoke cleared, a group of people wearing gas masks came out and began to count the number of people and room numbers.

Seeing Jiang Zhiyue lying on the ground, someone immediately lifted her up and put her on a stretcher.

The cruise ship continued to move forward and disappeared into the night.
