Chapter 407: The Fiancé Ran Away with the Most Beautiful Girl in the World (32)
Shu Shichu didn't want to ask any more questions, but Mu Zhangqing clearly wanted to continue. "Rongrong, aren't you curious about who my family is and what they do? If you want to know, I can tell you."
"No, no, although I'm a little curious, but since this is your secret, I won't delve into it. I respect your family's privacy, hehe..." Shu Shichu said with a dry laugh. She thought that although she and Mu Changqing were friends, it would be a bit too much to mention his family.
How could Mu Changqing not understand her excuses? He was a little disappointed, but knowing that Shu Shichu was very defensive towards him, he did not force her, and only thought of boiling the frog in clear water, and then slowly soften her attitude.
Because Xiao Yihan and his friends didn't know the exact location of Liuyu Island and only knew a rough idea, they basically had to rely on their luck in the sea.
Sometimes, if you are lucky, you can find an inhabited island and go there to replenish some fresh water and food; sometimes, if you are unlucky, you can't find an island for several days, or the only islands you find are deserted, and then you get nothing.
Fortunately, Mu Changqing had stored enough food on the boat, so they were safe. However, they had not been able to find the legendary Liuyu Island for such a long time. Moreover, they were on the boat every day, facing the endless sea. Gradually, everyone became more and more impatient and became impulsive and irritable, especially Ji Feibai, Wei Taozhen and Le Wanrou, who had weaker willpower.
Ji Feibai and Wei Taozhen couldn't help but keep asking the captain when they could find Liuyu Island. When the captain replied that he didn't know, they got furious and scolded him. In the end, Xiao Yihan pulled them back with a sullen face.
Le Wanrou was originally a gentle and kind beauty, but after drifting on the sea for a long time, she couldn't help but reveal her true nature. She began to complain about the bad food and not being able to take a bath every day...
Especially seeing Shu Shichu being able to relax every day, cooking for himself and eating delicious bacon fried with bamboo shoots, ham stewed with sea pigeon and mushrooms... sometimes he even had juicy fruits to eat...
Her eyes turned red with jealousy, and she became more and more hostile to Shu Shichu, but who told her that all the food Shu Shichu ate was bought by her before she went out to sea? She wanted to say righteously that Shu Shichu had no right to eat alone - after all, it was not that there was no food provided for her on the ship, it just wasn't that delicious. Who told her not to think carefully and buy food before getting on the ship?
"Ah, this soup of ham stewed with sea pigeon and mushrooms is absolutely amazing! So delicious." Shu Shichu said loudly on purpose. She saw Le Wanrou glaring at her, so she deliberately envied her.
Mu Changqing agreed: "It's because the ham you bought is so good. I should have bought more." When Shu Shichu bought the ham, he thought she bought too much, but now he thinks she bought too little.
"The boss said that this ham was made by his mother herself, using the hind legs of pigs raised by the family, and using a secret recipe. It's really delicious!" Shu Shichu exclaimed, "When we get back, we'll ask the boss if he has any stock."
"Okay." Mu Changqing agreed immediately.
Le Wanrou looked at the two people who acted as if no one was around, stomped her feet angrily, and went to find Xiao Yihan.
Shu Shichu looked at her from behind and couldn't help laughing. This heroine was just weird. If she had told him openly that she wanted to eat, Shu Shichu might have really given her some. But she just didn't say anything. She just appeared from time to time when Shu Shichu was eating, staring at Shu Shichu with accusatory and dissatisfied eyes, as if Shu Shichu should take the initiative to offer her food and beg her to eat without her asking...
Bah! She was dreaming! Shu Shichu was not one of her servants, so she would not spoil her. She wanted to eat but she had to put on airs and pretend to be reserved, waiting for others to serve her food. Who would have the patience to tolerate her temper?
"Brother Xiao, you haven't seen how arrogant that woman named Zhan is! She did it on purpose. She deliberately used delicious food to win over Hero Mu, and she deliberately ate deliciously in front of us to embarrass us..." Le Wanrou complained to Xiao Yihan angrily.
Xiao Yihan had a slight headache. Although he was also tormented by the delicious food made by Shu Shichu, he knew that he had no relationship with the other person. So he was just envious of Mu Changqing for being able to eat for free, and did not think much about other things. But Le Wanrou's complaints to him made him not know what to do.
"Then Wanrou, what do you want me to do?" He had no choice but to ask Le Wanrou directly, "Should I go ask Miss Zhan and ask her to send us some food?"
"Of course not!" Le Wanrou immediately refused. "If we go to her begging for food, wouldn't that just be asking her to laugh at us?"
Xiao Yihan was at a loss, "Then when she's eating, should we go to the stern and hide away?"
"No! Why should we get out of the way?" Le Wanrou refused again.
Xiao Yihan sighed: "So what do you want?"
Le Wanrou was choked suddenly, because she didn't know what she wanted to do, and she was stumped for a moment. She felt that she was suppressed by Shu Shichu, and she was very dissatisfied in her heart. It was like there was a breath stuck in her chest, making her very uncomfortable. She had to release it to feel comfortable.
She couldn't say this dark thought out loud. She wanted to complain and hint at it as she had done before, hoping that these men would help her. However, due to the situation and venue, these men who seemed to be omnipotent in the past seemed to be restrained and could do nothing to the arrogant Shu Shichu.
Le Wanrou raised her head and wanted to continue fanning the flames, but when she saw the impatience and irritability on Xiao Yihan's face, it was as if a basin of cold water was poured over her head, making her feel cold all over and she sobered up instantly.
It seemed that because she had been on the sea for too long, she had forgotten to conceal her true nature and her temper had become worse and worse, which was very different from her previous considerate and gentle image. This was not a good thing. What if they stopped liking her because of this?
Le Wanrou calmed down and instantly regained her rationality. She became considerate and gentle again. She smiled bitterly and said to Xiao Yihan, "I'm sorry, Brother Xiao. I probably stayed at sea for too long and almost lost my temper. I was too paranoid. In fact, Miss Zhan did nothing wrong. She just made some dishes that smelled too good. I can't blame her just because I can't eat them."
"Brother Xiao, have you forgotten what I said before? Don't create a conflict with Hero Mu and Miss Zhan. We still need Hero Mu's ship to find Liuyu Island on the sea.
We should focus on the real things.”
When Xiao Yihan heard that she had thought it through on her own and was not determined to cause trouble for Shu Shichu, he glanced at her in surprise and found the familiar gentle expression on her face. He was relieved. After all, he liked this kind and considerate Rou'er more and didn't want to face the Le Wanrou who had a bad temper and seemed to have changed her personality.
