Just after replying to Hua Xinrui, Xu Kun also sent a private message: "Send [harpoon], harpoon has strong attack power, Mianmei, you use this shark."
Gu Mian: "?"
Gu Mian: "Why did you send me a harpoon?"
Aren't they just a normal customer relationship?
Is Xu Kun really this nice to all his clients?
Xu Kun looked completely bewildered: "Huh? It's just a harpoon, what's the big deal? Besides, I have the blueprints for a harpoon, I can make one anytime."
After a pause, Xu Kun continued, "Besides, aren't we friends? It's not surprising that I hope you can survive longer, is it?"
No, it's still quite strange.
When did we become friends...?
Gu Mian thought for a moment and replied, "Okay, thank you for your kindness. I'll send you some roast duck to try."
Xu Kun: "[Laughing and crying] Mianmei, you've revealed your foodie nature."
Gu Mian: "..."
This was destined to be an unsettling night, with players' rafts constantly being damaged and lost due to shark attacks, leaving them back to square one after all their hard work.
Some players got so excited while attacking sharks that they fell into the sea and died in the shark's mouth.
However, such unlucky individuals are always in the minority; most people successfully repelled the sharks and protected their rafts.
Liu Haitao: "Xu Kun, could I borrow your harpoon for a bit? I'll return it to you as soon as I've driven the shark away!"
Xu Kun: "Brother, it's not appropriate for you to try and get something for nothing, is it? As a veteran player who has survived until now, I don't believe you don't have a weapon."
Besides, even if you really don't have weapons, can't you exchange them for resources?
Liu Haitao: "I just borrowed it for a bit, it's not like I'm not going to return it, you can't be that stingy, can you?"
Xu Kun: "Hehe, I won't lend it."
...
There really are people with such thick skin; it's truly astonishing.
After finishing our meal, it was already 1 a.m.
After pulling the boxes from the resource network up, Gu Mian yawned and went to sleep.
After staying up most of the night, she felt like her brain was turning to mush.
At seven o'clock sharp, Gu Mian was woken up by the heat.
He gulped down a bottle of mineral water in one go, relieving the dry cough in his throat, and then pulled on his clothes and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
It seems she's almost gotten used to waking up every day with her clothes soaked in sweat.
Taking out a new ice bucket and placing it in front of the electric fan, Gu Mian comfortably half-closed her eyes, feeling the cool breeze blowing on her cheeks.
Her enjoyment was interrupted when her stomach started growling.
"What should we eat for breakfast? Something cool would be best." Gu Mian took out a cookbook and slowly flipped through it.
"Yes."
[Double-skin milk pudding: Consuming it can lower body temperature by 10 degrees Celsius, lasting for 3 minutes.]
Gu Mian took out two portions of milk, one portion of flour, and one portion of ice and put them into the food processor.
Thirty seconds later.
[Ding! You have received a serving of double-skin milk pudding.]
The milky white double-skin milk is bouncy and looks very appetizing.
Gu Mian scooped out a piece with a spoon and put it in her mouth, instantly filling her mouth with a rich milky flavor. "Mmm...so delicious!"
After finishing a serving of double-skin milk pudding, Gu Mian felt extremely refreshed, both physically and mentally.
He smacked his lips, still wanting more, and made another one to send to Xu Kun, as a way of repaying the kindness he showed by giving him the harpoon yesterday.
It was still early, and Gu Mian had just sent the double-skin milk dessert when Xu Kun replied:
Wow! This double-skin milk pudding tastes amazing! Not only is it delicious, but it can also lower body temperature. It's a divine product!
"Good sister, how many do you have left? I'll trade you 10 coconuts!"
Gu Mian's lips twitched: "Not much. I can only exchange a coconut for one serving. If you want more, you'll need to exchange the blueprint."
Xu Kun: "I don't have the blueprints yet, but I have a [rice cooker], is that okay?"
Gu Mian paused for a moment before replying, "Sure, but the rice cooker can only be exchanged for one serving of double-skin milk pudding."
While food processors are useful, they do have limited durability. It's also nice to use a rice cooker occasionally to cook rice.
Xu Kun: "Okay, okay."
After trading with Xu Kun, Gu Mian went to the chat channel to collect weeds again, then created 5 resource nets. Braving the high temperature, she quickly ran out and placed the resource nets next to the raft.
"It's so hot! It's so hot!" Gu Mian was sweating profusely again after only a few minutes outside, making her previous shower pointless.
There wasn't much purified water left in the wooden tub, so Gu Mian didn't take a shower. Instead, she put a towel in the tub to wet it and simply wiped her body.
Just as she threw her clothes into the wooden tub, Xu Kun sent her another private message: "Mianmei, are you asleep?"
Gu Mian: "No, what's wrong?"
Xu Kun: "If you're not going to sleep, how about we go to the island together and have some fun?"
This was the second time Xu Kun had invited her to join a team to go to the island. Gu Mian hesitated for three seconds, but still refused: "I don't want to go. It's too hot, and I have no motivation."
Xu Kun: "...Come on, come on, the temperature on the island isn't high, don't you want to meet me in person..."
Gu Mian replied coldly, "Hmm, I don't want to."
Why do you have to try meeting up with other people in person? Aren't you afraid of getting solo-killed offline?
Xu Kun: "Little sister, you're so heartless... I like you even more now..."
Gu Mian: "Don't say such perverted things."
...
Although she rejected Xu Kun, Gu Mian didn't plan to be idle for even a day. She still had 10 island access cards left, and she couldn't just leave them gathering dust in her backpack.
Before using the island access card, put all the ice cubes in your backpack into a wooden bucket and then put it in the locker in the cabin.
This way, the backpack will be more than half empty, and you won't have to worry about not having enough backpack space to find supplies after arriving on the island.
