To Cheng Tian Ji, survival was more important.
There was no time for such a person to think about love.
Thus, at that time, they would not think about this matter.
This was the pyramid of human needs.
Maslow's pyramid of human needs clearly stated that the lowest and most basic are physical needs.
The second level is a security requirement.
The third level is the need for belonging and love.
The fourth level was the need for respect.
The fifth floor was a place where knowledge was needed.
The sixth level was the need for beauty.
The seventh level was the need for self-realization.
Cheng Tian Ji, on the other hand, was living in the lowest level of biological survival needs when he was young.
Therefore, why would such a person need love?
He couldn't afford it!
His love would kill him!
That was why he had ignored love and resisted it.
Only after he left the organization did he dare to hope for the requirements of the third level, which was belonging and love.
However, he was so unfamiliar with love that he did not know how to love it.
After Yang Lin understood this point, she suddenly felt his heart ache.
It turned out that the person she liked was not so easy.
Compared to Cheng Tian Ji's misfortune, she was already very lucky!
At her most difficult moment, it was only her father who was hospitalized. She might not be Cai De Fa's lover.
And this matter, to Cheng Tian Ji, was not considered difficult at all.
As expected, people can't compare with each other. There's simply no way to compare at all.
Humans could always continuously refresh the lower limit, while constantly raising the upper limit.
Only when humans were within this pyramid could they truly feel their own level and future direction.
Therefore, this was the so-called self-knowledge.
After she understood this point, Yang Lin decided to no longer hold grudges against Cheng Tian Ji. She decided to open her heart and hug Cheng Tian Ji again.
This time, she would not easily retreat!
She would definitely become Cheng Tian Ji's savior!
Cheng Tian Ji took off his outer clothes, and after finishing his warm-up on the spot, he ferociously dived in.
Yang Lin sat on the shore and watched as Cheng Tian Ji stretched his body out into the water like a fish.
Seeing Cheng Tian Ji being so free, Yang Lin was very happy for him and also felt very lucky for him that they had finally escaped that terrifying place.
Cheng Tian Ji swam in the water for a while before landing back on the shore, unwilling to stop. He started to use the various tools he had created to fish.
One had to say, catching fish was indeed a matter of talent and luck.
Due to the storm from yesterday, all the fish today came out of the water to breathe. Cheng Tian Ji caught quite a few fish in a short while.
Cheng Tian Ji caught basket after basket, Yang Lin was responsible for bringing the caught fish over to be slaughtered and cleaned.
It had only been half a day, yet the two of them had managed to get so many fresh fish.
In addition, Cheng Tian Ji also picked up a lot of seashells, starfish, and other seafood.
By the time they got back at noon, the two of them were already back home, full of loot.
Probably because he would be happy whenever he saw food, Yang Lin was in a great mood. From time to time, he would hum a tune and hang all the baskets under the eaves of the house to dry.
Those that can't be dried by the wind, eat them as soon as possible.
Because today's lunch had added quite a lot of different types of food, this meal was extremely satisfying for both of them.
After eating their fill, the two of them fell onto the bed together, not wanting to talk anymore.
After a long while, Yang Lin finally understood the situation and asked, "Brother Tianji, we won't be staying on this island forever, right?"
Cheng Tian Ji intentionally asked her: "If no one comes to pick us up, what will you do?"
Yang Lin laughed and said: "What else can we do? Just stay here! In any case, my parents are on your island, and they're living a good life, so I don't have to worry. I don't have anyone to worry about outside here. Even if I am in the ends of the world, what difference does it make? "
Cheng Tian Ji turned his head to look at Yang Lin, "Really? "I thought you would say that as long as I'm here, it doesn't matter even if I have to live here for the rest of my life."
Yang Lin's heartbeat suddenly sped up!
What he had just said had several meanings.
This was simply fatal!
Did he know that just a single word from him could make him think for a long time?
Cheng Tian Ji seemed to know the power of these words, so he quickly changed the topic and said: "Don't worry, Xiao Qi and the rest probably just wanted us to rest here for a few days, they won't let us stay here forever. We have no enmity with her. "
Cheng Tian Ji's last sentence was spoken jokingly.
Yang Lin smiled successfully. "Mn, I understand."
Then, both of them fell into silence.
After a very, very long time, Yang Lin finally could not hold back and broke the silence: "Actually, if you have the ability to leave, why don't you? With your ability, this place won't be able to hold you, right? "
Cheng Tian Ji did not deny it. He replied: "Because, I also want to rest for a while. I also want to know if I can get used to such a calm and tranquil life. After all, after experiencing so much, it would be hard to calm down. But, luckily, with you around, I suddenly feel like this life isn't that bad after all. "
Yang Lin's heart once again involuntarily started to beat faster.
He was about to die!
Did Cheng Tian Ji even know that when he said those words, other people did not even have the ability to resist him?
Cheng Tian Ji suddenly turned his head slowly, and just like that, he looked at Yang Lin who was lying on the side.
Cheng Tian Ji's voice was very low, but it was so pleasing to the ears that it was hard to refuse.
Yang Lin's eyes instantly widened, as she looked at Cheng Tian Ji without moving: "Mn?"
Yang Lin's voice trembled a little.
"You like me, don't you?" Cheng Tian Ji asked.
Yang Lin was stu
ed.
She never thought that Cheng Tian Ji would be so straightforward, but she didn't want to retreat, didn't want to avoid him, so she nodded her head heavily.
"Do you still like me as much as before?" Cheng Tian Ji chuckled: "Even if you know about my past, do you still like it that much?"
"I like it." Yang Lin answered with absolute certainty. She looked straight into Cheng Tian Ji's eyes as she conveyed her thoughts to him through his eyes, "So what if you're an assassin? Those are not things you want to do. Now that you have left that place, you are free. I like the current you, I like the free you. Brother Tianji, I won't let you down, and I won't burden you. As you once said, a smart girl is bound to be a little more tiring than a stupid girl. But I like it. "
