This legendary Mr. Leng is just as his name suggests. Although he is stunningly beautiful with a good figure and a pretty face, he is cold as ice in his daily dealings with people, especially men. It seems as if all the men in the world owe him something in their previous life, and he will never even smile at you.
In Lu Xuan's impression, the only time he saw Leng Mengyao smile at a man was when he was receiving an assessment team from a listed company. It was really not easy, but for the sake of the company, Mr. Leng forced a smile from between his teeth, but that smile was creepy.
Compared to the person next to him, Shen Keyin, who was already much more well-behaved and could even tidy up the cave without him saying anything, and now he obediently made the bedding for him and got into his sleeping bag to keep it warm for him, that person's personality could only be described as "cold".
"Don't think too much. Leng Mengyao was able to single-handedly support such a large company that her father left her. This shows that she is very capable in all aspects. I believe that such people are also lucky people with good fortune. Relax your mind. Maybe we will meet her in a few days."
Lu Xuan could also sense that Chen Keyin had become somewhat sad since Leng Mengyao was mentioned. The two of them had become best friends because they indeed had many similarities. Both had lost their fathers when they were young, so they lacked tolerance and empathy for men, which in turn gave them the impression of being superior and arrogant.
After close contact with Shen Keyin these days, Lu Xuan felt that this girl was much easier to get along with than he thought. Although sometimes she gave people the illusion of being aloof, as if she was born with a nature that kept people at a distance, in fact, it was just a false protective color.
"Let's take care of the house and then take a walk along the coastline, okay?"
When Shen Keyin heard Lu Xuan's words of comfort, a glimmer of hope seemed to rise in his heart.
Lu Xuan was stunned. Firstly, he didn't expect that this woman had already regarded this place as her "home". Secondly, he didn't expect that this woman really wanted to find Leng Mengyao. Lu Xuan's words were obviously just to comfort her.
"Okay, when I'm done, I'll take you east along the coastline. But first we have to go to that wreck again."
Lu Xuan couldn't bear to extinguish the fire of hope in Shen Keyin's heart. Anyway, he did have to explore the beach to the east. After all, he had made some discoveries on the cliff, so he might as well help her.
Of course, Lu Xuan did not immediately tell Shen Keyin that he had observed supplies suspected to be left by humans on the east beach while standing on the cliff, because he was afraid that this woman would be impatient and drag him to look for her best friend in the middle of the night.
"Okay, that's great...ah~~~"
Hearing that Lu Xuan agreed to her request without doing anything, Shen Keyin immediately turned around to express her gratitude. However, she always had her back to Lu Xuan, and when she suddenly turned around, Lu Xuan was not on guard at all. Now, the two of them had close contact again, and this time their heads bumped into each other.
"I'm sorry..."
Chen Keyin hung her head like a little woman who had done something wrong. She wanted to turn around and go back immediately, but then she felt that it seemed a bit impolite. But wouldn't it be even more embarrassing to just stare at each other like that?
Looking at Lu Xuan's strong upper body lines, Shen Keyin's heart was pounding.
"However, you have to work hard with me tomorrow. You can't go out until the work is done."
In order to avoid embarrassing Shen Keyin, Lu Xuan turned his face to look above the cave, then left a word and closed his eyes.
"Don't worry, I promise to cooperate fully. I've already dug more than ten holes with that spatula today, and I dug behind the cave as well."
Shen Keyin showed Lu Xuan her "homework" seriously.
Lu Xuan slept very comfortably that night. In the second half of the night, Shen Keyin, who had already entered a deep sleep, seemed a little cold and unconsciously hugged Lu Xuan's strong arms.
Here, Lu Xuan has no worries about food and drink, and he has a warm and safe haven. The most important thing is that he can sleep soundly until dawn with his beloved in his arms.
But Zhang Cong and Yang Yaqi on the other side of the cliff were not having such a good time.
The two of them had been sleeping in the open for two days, surviving on some scattered compressed biscuits and two opened bottles of mineral water that Yang Yaqi picked up from the beach when she woke up.
On the first day, the two were lucky enough to find a bottle of water and a bag of bread that had been soaked by sea water and floated ashore on the beach.
But on the second day, there was no gain. After much difficulty, they found a stranded ship, but Zhang Cong got almost nothing. He just picked up the broken wine bottles in the cabin, tried to drink a few sips, and then vomited. This expired stuff was ten thousand times more unpalatable than horse urine.
With Zhang Cong's skills and eyesight, he naturally couldn't find the hidden small door, nor did he have the ability to crawl into the kitchen to look for food like Lu Xuan with his agility, so naturally he got nothing.
He had originally planned to punish Lu Xuan and then have him run errands for him, but not only did he fail, he even got beaten up. Fortunately, the gold-digger next to him shared half of the burden for him.
On weekdays, Zhang Cong, who usually eats delicacies and drinks to excess, would definitely invite a few beautiful women to accompany him at night. But now he has not even solved the problem of food and clothing, and has no time to think about that. He is cold, hungry and sleepy, and he is almost eating dirt.
"Brother Cong, go find some more food. Also, see if there are any coconuts on this tree."
Yang Yaqi, who was curled up under a big tree, was not in a much better condition. She was shivering with cold. She hadn't slept for two nights in a row. She wanted to sleep, but her stomach was growling with hunger.
"Looking for food? Where the hell am I going to find food for you? Are there any coconuts on this tree? Open your eyes and look at it. Is this a coconut tree? Besides, do you think I can climb a tree? Stop talking nonsense. I support women like you on a daily basis. You are useless at the critical moment. What are you still sitting here for? Go find food at the beach. If you can't find it, I will eat you!"
Zhang Cong was already full of anger, and Yang Yaqi came to him and scolded him.
Zhang Cong swung his feet and kicked Yang Yaqi, who was curled up on the ground.
“Woo…”
Yang Yaqi ran towards the beach with tears and snot. She hated Zhang Cong so much at that moment. He was completely irresponsible. He usually ordered her around and treated her like a servant. It was okay for her because of the money, but now that her life and death were uncertain, this man was still useless.
What's the point of following this useless man?
Yang Yaqi sat on the beach and thought for a moment, and suddenly a strong figure flashed in her mind.
By the way... go find Lu Xuan!
As long as I show some attentiveness, at most I can make a sacrifice and spend a night with him. This man will definitely serve me with gratitude!
Thinking of this, Yang Yaqi was full of confidence. She turned around and trotted in the direction Lu Xuan left...
