Chapter 69
Xie Changxiao was right, his use of the knife to deter Fang Lu only had a temporary effect, while she was nestled in the utility room of Building No. [-], eating a small piece of snake meat given by the mother and daughter who rescued her from the island , she thought of finding Wen Qizhou to take him in again.

She asked someone to inquire for a while, using the weak appearance and Wen Qizhou's dropped things as an excuse to deceive the young man who lowered his guard, and asked him to send her there to find someone when he was out hunting.

Seeing the tent in the middle of the thick fog, she hesitated for a moment, after much deliberation, she decided to start with Chi Yue.

"Mrs. Wen, are you there?" In order to avoid Wen Qizhou driving her away, Fang Lu didn't call him: "I want to talk to you."

Chi Yue, who was reading a book, raised her eyebrows slightly.

She put on a mask and walked out of the tent, cast her eyes on Fang Lu's haggard face, and motioned for him to sit on the picnic mat.

"What are you talking about?" She was very calm, her light brown almond eyes were so clear that she seemed to be able to see all her thoughts.

Fang Lu grabbed the corner of her clothes uncomfortably.

The woman she once regarded as a rival in love is much better than her in terms of clothing and mental outlook.

Looking at the face full of collagen, she felt uncomfortable, and her self-esteem didn't want her to bow her head.

But thinking that they are the only hope that can be grasped at the moment, she had to endure the frustration and bow her head to each other.

"I've had a rough time lately..."

Fang Lu wept pitifully from the hardships of going to the island to the difficulties recently: "I know I shouldn't bother you, but I really have no other choice."

The meaning of her words could not be more obvious.

Chi Yue leaned lazily on the tent cloth, looked directly at the other party with slightly curved eyes, pretending not to understand: "What do you mean?"

"I'm scared to be there alone." She wiped her tears and whispered, "Can you let me move here?"

"No one's name is written on this island. You can build a wooden house wherever you want. There is no need to come and tell me."

"no……"

"Could it be that you want to live with us?" Seeing the other party acquiescing, Chi Yue couldn't hold back a chuckle: "Why?"

Fang Lu's face was flushed red.

She pinched her palm tightly, and lowered her posture against that mocking gaze: "I know your tent can't fit in, but I can't build a wooden house by myself."

"That's your business."

"..."

She was so choked that she couldn't speak.

Chi Yue watched her think of a way with great interest, her eyes were like watching a cricket in a jar, no matter how much she hopped around, she couldn't jump out of the indestructible world.

"Mrs. Wen." Fang Lu was furious from her eyes, but she could only force herself to swallow the breath welling up in her throat: "I just want a safe place, and I won't harm you. Threats will not affect your relationship with Mr. Wen, so why should you be hostile to me?"

"Hostile? You can think so if you want." Chi Yue narrowed the distance with Fang Lu, and covered her neck with slightly cool fingertips: "However, everyone who stands on the opposite side of me is dead."

Her fingertips scratched Fang Lu's skin like needles quenching the chill, and the hairs all over her body stood on end in fright, as if she was on the verge of death, and her whole body was swept by fear.

She suddenly realized that the woman in front of her was not as harmless as she seemed, and if she provoked her, she would really lose her life.

Just as she was about to push away Chi Yue's hand and escape from this place, Wen Qizhou and Xie Changxiao, who were out hunting, walked slowly through the thick fog to the tent with a pheasant and a snake in their hands.

Wen Qizhou, who mistakenly thought she was going to do something, his eyes darkened, and his eyes quickly grabbed the arm that was about to touch Chi Yue.

It was unloaded for her with a click.

"Ah!!" The sudden pain made Fang Lu scream terribly.

The scream echoed in the forest, and the birds perched on the trees were also disturbed, flapping their wings and passing over their heads.

Wen Qizhou didn't look at her more.

He knelt down in front of Chi Yue, and took the hand that was almost touched: "What did she tell you just now?"

"tell a joke."

"A joke? Herself?"

Chi Yue pursed her lips and suppressed a smile, and glanced at Fang Lu who was crying for no apparent reason: "She does have the ability to make people laugh."

"Well, it's also very noisy." He didn't want to be disturbed by the noisy voice, so he gave Xie Changxiao his eyes.

Xie Changxiao understands.

He held Fang Lu by the back collar mercilessly, ignoring her struggle, and walked to the beach with ease.

Then-
There was a "plop" sound of falling into the water.

The dense fog gradually covered the figure flopping in the sea, the begging and howling were blown away by the wind, and finally returned to calm.

*
In a blink of an eye, it was golden autumn.

The temperature has risen to [-] degrees, and the thick fog has not dispersed. More and more people are coming to the island, and hunters can be seen everywhere.

However, the resources on the island are very limited. In less than two weeks, they had almost finished catching pheasants, hares, fish and snakes.

No way, we can only focus on Shanghai products.

Realizing that those people only had seafood to eat, Chi Yue and the others stopped cooking, let alone bringing out over-smelling cooked food, so as not to be smelled by others and cause unnecessary disasters.

They were low-key enough, but they couldn't stand the greed of some people, and they touched this area at night, trying to snatch food.

Wen Qizhou, the one who solved the "night interview" again, kneaded the center of his eyebrows sleepily: "Shall we find another place tomorrow?"

"Okay." Chi Yue put away the knife.

While he and Xie Changxiao were finishing up, she shrugged her eyelids and lay down in her sleeping bag, falling asleep within two or three minutes.

No one came to disturb them in the second half of the night. They slept until they woke up naturally, packed up their things and looked for a slightly hidden place.

Due to the increasing number of people hunting recently, they stayed away from the southwest, found a suitable place to set up their tents, and then used vines and branches as cover to avoid being easily seen.

It didn't take long for Naihe to stop, and another wild mandarin duck rolled in the grass near them.

"I'm going crazy!" Xie Changxiao looked at the top of the tent disinterestedly: "Don't they have any sense of shame?"

"Things that can't be seen, do you still expect them to have a sense of shame?" Wen Qizhou put his arms around Chi Yue who hadn't been woken up, and covered her ears with his big palms to block out the sound from outside.

"Then I'll shine a beam of light on them!" Hearing the unbearable noise of death, he put on his coat and rushed out with a flashlight, so aggressive that he seemed to want to kill a mandarin duck.

After a while, there was a scream.

Wen Qizhou raised his eyes to see the flying beam of light, and exerted a little force on the hand covering Chi Yue's ear.

When the movement outside the tent disappeared and Xie Changxiao returned without incident, he closed his eyes and fell asleep against the top of Chi Yue's hair.

They originally thought that the appearance of wild mandarin ducks was just an occasional event, but they didn't expect another pair to come four days later.

The wild mandarin ducks who came this time were closer to the tent, and Wen Qizhou's hands alone could not cover their voices.

"It's so annoying." Chi Yue, who woke up in a daze, was full of fear of being woken up.
