Hearing Li Wei’s words, the plastic girl, Liu Yufan said, “Is he trying to poison us to death with that grass?”

Chang Yuan was speechless when he heard it. He thought, “I didn’t give you anything to eat. How could I poison you?”

“Young man, I know you mean well. No matter what the result is, I’ll thank you on behalf of Auntie Wang!” Director Zhang said to Chang Yuan with a smile. He had already eaten more than half of the rabbit meat in his hand.

His mouth was full of oil.

There was initially half of the rabbit meat left, and this Director Zhang had eaten one-third of it.

There was also a Director Liu, who was also a management-level male. He also ate one-third of the rabbit meat. The remaining five people could only eat a tiny piece. They divided the meat so “evenly”!

As time went by, the thunderstorm had stopped. It was already nighttime.

It was too dangerous to go out in the dark, so Director Zhang’s group stayed in the cave for one night.

It was not until the next morning, when the sky had just brightened, that the group came out.

“Young man, thank you. If it weren’t for your help last night, I’m afraid we would have been drenched!” Director Zhang smiled and said to Chang Yuan, “We promised that we will only stay for one night, so we are leaving now!”

Before leaving, Auntie Wang held Chang Yuan’s hand and was filled with gratitude. If it weren’t for Chang Yuan’s help, she probably wouldn’t be able to get up now.

Now, her illness was much better. “Young man, What’s your name? I don’t have anything good to give you. I only have money. When we’re saved, I’ll give you money every day…”

Chang Yuan was stunned. This Auntie Wang was really wild. Was she trying to make him her godson?

But he replied, “Call me Chang Yuan! We can talk about that after we are saved…”

He originally wanted to send this group of people away, but Auntie Wang took a few steps back and pulled Chang Yuan to a side and whispered to him.

The few of them saw this scene, but Director Zhang only smiled and did not say a word.

Li Wei and Liu Yufan looked at Auntie Wang in disdain. “That old rich woman takes a fancy to that guy, how shameless!”

In reality, Auntie Wang whispered into Chang Yuan’s ear, “Be careful of these people. They seem to be very interested in this place. I heard them secretly discussing it!”

After saying that, Auntie Wang turned around and left.

Chang Yuan watched them leave, but he was deep in thought.

“They’re finally gone. If they dare to come again, we’ll definitely not take them in. We won’t care even if they got wet in the rain! We’re all stranded on this deserted island. We can only take care of ourselves!” Qiao Yuran looked at the backs of those people who had entered the forest, she clenched her fists and cursed fiercely.

“Forget it. We’re all the same. It’s not easy for them either!” Tong Wei was still as soft-hearted as ever.

Zhuo Qianqian waved the wooden stick in her hand, full of vigor. “That plastic woman, what’s her name again? When I see her next time, I’ll definitely stab her nose into pieces!”

As Qiao Yuran spoke, she pointed at the direction where the other group had left and cursed loudly.

However, she suddenly saw the scene below the cliff in front of her.

It was a patch of emerald-green woods. In the middle of the woods was a deep blue island lake! There was also some hazy morning fog around the lake.

She did not see it because of the thunderstorm yesterday. Today, the sun had come out, and she could clearly see the beautiful scenery on the island.

“Wow, this is too beautiful, it’s like a fairyland on earth!”

Qiao Yuran was overjoyed. She covered her face and cried out in excitement.

The other two women were also interested and came over to take a look.

The moment they saw the scene, they were stunned. Such beautiful scenery was breath-taking. Even Chang Yuan was deeply attracted.

He did not look carefully at the edge of the cliff yesterday. Now that he looked again, he found that the lake at the center of the island was exceptionally clear. With a glance, he could see the scene in the lake.

There were many groups of sea fish, forming a colorful pattern in the lake.

There were also many small animals by the lake, drinking water with their heads lowered. The scene was beautiful and harmonious.

“You guys come here quickly. You can see the scenery of the entire island from here!”

Qiao Yu ran to a flat area above the cave.

It was about ten meters away from the cave and was a good viewing platform. From there, one could see the view of the entire island, but they could not see the side behind the mountain.

The few of them followed him up to the viewing platform. At a glance, they could see the lonely island standing in the endless sea.

The waves in the distance were hitting the rocks and the beach. From time to time, they could see water jets shooting out from the sea. There were also groups of dolphins jumping out of the sea along with the waves.

Looking further into the distance, the flying fishes rode the wind and broke through the waves. They were flying together with the horizon. It was a spectacular sight.

The few people lost in their thoughts while watching the breath-taking scenery. For a moment, they forgot that they were on a deserted island.

Suddenly, Tong Wei cried out in pain.

Tong Wei had not fully recovered from her foot injury, so she was standing with one hand supporting a giant rock. Then, the rock suddenly rolled, giving Tong Wei a fright.

“Stay away from the rock!” Chang Yuan said as he pulled Tong Wei away from the rock.

There were some small gravels around this rock. It should have been washed down from the mountain yesterday during the rainstorm. Fortunately, it fell onto this flat platform. If it continued to fall, it would definitely hit the entrance of the cave.

If they were hit by those gravels, they would be dead.

“Alright, stop looking. We can’t feed our stomach by just staring the beautiful scenery! Come, we’ll distribute today’s work!”

Back in the cave, Chang Yuan found that all the cans and bottles of rainwater that he had prepared yesterday had been lost.

It was really infuriating.

“We now have a place to live, but you know the situation. It’s not safe!” Chang Yuan said to the three women and took out a small knife.

He cut one end of the three women’s wooden sticks into a long spear, making it more convenient to use as a weapon.

“Will this work? I don’t know how to use a weapon!” Tong Wei held the wooden spear with a troubled expression. She felt that the thickness of the spear in her hand was quite strange.

She couldn’t help but think of the scene of Chang Yuan wetting his underpants.

“Even if you don’t know how to use it, you must learn it. You’ve seen that group of people. Not only did they eat our food, but they also stole our water!” Zhuo Qianqian was very used to the stick and played with it in her hand skillfully. She even demonstrated a stick dance.

Her move shocked even Chang Yuan. He did not expect Zhuo Qianqian to know martial arts.

“Hmph, I know a lot of things!” Zhuo Qianqian was not modest at all. She rubbed her nose with her thumb. She did a good impression of Bruce Lee.

“Today, you guys will in charge of gathering the wood. When we have enough wood, we can build a house!” Chang Yuan instructed the few of them.

He then dived into the forest.

The three women knew that Chang Yuan was looking for food for them..
