After much deliberation, Huang Jianjun arranged a grand fireworks display for the island.
Many tourists come specifically for this, hoping to catch a glimpse of it and take some beautiful photos.
The island began to liven up. Although many shop owners were unhappy with Huang Jianjun, they could still coexist peacefully because he could bring them wealth.
Two days later.
Ah Qing was the first to wake up. He went to the deck to stretch, looked around, and realized they had miraculously returned to the island...
He also saw the boss guarding the shore, which startled him. He immediately ran back to the cabin and woke them up.
"Quick, quick! Wake up, all of you! We've drifted back to the island!!"
The three of them sat up groggily, and Shen Yizhou ran to the deck to check. They had indeed returned to the same spot.
Does that mean they have to live on the island?
The boss, who was guarding the shore, was dozing off when the sailboat suddenly thudded to the shore, startling him awake.
Seeing the returning ship and the four people, he was overjoyed, knowing that there weren't that many bad people in the world!
"Hey, you four old men, you need to pay up, I'm telling you!"
Ah Yu was the first to react, "Okay, okay, Grandpa, it was raining heavily yesterday, so we couldn't come back for a while."
The boss understood, "Oh well, there's nothing we can do about the weather. We won't charge you, just come back."
The four of them disembarked and chose a new guesthouse to stay in.
This time they booked a two-bedroom apartment, and the four of them began a melancholy review of the situation.
Aqing: "Do you think the system might have deliberately sent us back?"
Shen Yizhou: "That's possible. There must be a defined area for survival..."
Ayu: "Doesn't that mean we're doomed?"
He Tiantian: "Isn't the goal to kill us?"
Shen Yizhou: "Well, let's not talk about that now. Let's just try our best to survive."
Aqing: "What if there's really no other way?"
He Tiantian: "Even if I'm just a nobody, I'll still be a hero 18 years from now!"
Ah Qing: "Okay!! Let's do it!"
Ayu and Shen Yizhou also laughed, instantly enlivening the previously lifeless atmosphere.
He Tiantian thought that if the system wanted them to die, it would have a million ways to do so, so why not enjoy the present moment first?
"How about we go diving tomorrow?"
"Great! Ah Yu and I have been wanting to go for ages!"
"But we don't have any money in our pockets..."
The three men turned their attention to Shen Yizhou, who was currently the only wealthy person here, and also their bank.
Shen Yizhou chuckled, "Alright, I still have money in my account, you can spend it as you please."
The three men stood up and cheered, chanting, "Long live Shen Yizhou!"
After the cheers subsided, He Tiantian started yawning. She chose a room to sleep in, with Shen Yizhou following behind her.
Aqing and Ayu also went back to their room to catch up on sleep.
Huang Wei and Xiao Li were also inexplicably sent back to the island. Xiao Li stumbled and almost knelt on the ground.
Fortunately, Huang Wei stopped her in time, saying, "Let's go back and rest for a few days, and then prepare properly, okay?"
Xiaoli was on the verge of a breakdown; she was really going crazy and didn't want to go on like this anymore.
"I don't want to! I really want to break down, Huang Wei!"
"I know, calm down first."
Huang Wei hugged Xiao Li, realizing that his recklessness had ruined her life. He wondered if things would have turned out differently if he hadn't taken her with him.
He found a hotel to stay in, and Xiaoli cried herself to sleep on the bed.
Huang Wei looked at her with some guilt, feeling that he had made her suffer along with him.
He went out of the hotel alone, went to the street and bought Xiaoli's favorite food, as well as some necessities and food.
Xiaoli sat up groggily. She couldn't find Huang Wei in the room and assumed he had abandoned her and run away.
She started sobbing again while sitting on the bed; she could clearly feel that she was emotionally breaking down.
Not long after, they heard the door open; Huang Wei had returned.
She ran barefoot to Huang Wei and hugged him tightly, saying, "Don't leave me."
Huang Wei was stunned for a moment, "How could I leave you? I just went out to buy some things."
He carried Xiaoli to bed, saying, "Sleep a little longer, I'll stay with you."
Xiaoli nodded, hugged him, and fell into a deep sleep. Huang Wei buried his head in her hair and soon fell asleep as well.
Looking at the truckloads of fireworks, Huang Jianjun suddenly had another idea: he could hire people to put on a show.
As long as this publicity campaign goes well, he won't have to worry about making money; he can just hold fireworks banquets on a few fixed days.
He acted immediately and devised a plan, setting up an event on the 10th, 17th, and 25th of each month, as well as on certain holidays.
Tourists on the street were all talking about the fireworks.
"Hey, I heard the fireworks display tonight is absolutely gorgeous!"
How did you know? Have you seen it?
"No, the scenery here is all over the internet right now, and many online celebrities have been here."
"I feel like this is just baseless gossip; the hygiene here isn't good enough either."
"Is it because there are more people? I think it's pretty good."
"You young girls like coming to places like this, but I don't."
"If you don't like it, why did you come along?"
The people at the next table also heard the three arguing and secretly laughed out loud. How embarrassing to be arguing when you're out having fun!
Time flies, and the grand fireworks display is about to begin, taking place on the hotel's rooftop.
Huang Jianjun had arranged everything well in advance, and as the time came, it was exactly 8:00 PM.
