“That’s right, we’re moving to the mountain!”
As Chang Yuan said this, Zhuo Qianqian was instantly unhappy.
“Are you joking? You said that we should pick up branches, and now you want us to move to the mountain. We are not your slaves!”
Chang Yuan was surprised. He wondered that if Zhuo Qianqian was a real chairwoman. Shouldn’t the chairwoman be very calm when facing the problems?
“You can stay here if you want. When the storm comes, the sea level will rise, and the beach will be flooded. Don’t blame me for not telling you beforehand!” After Chang Yuan said that, he picked up his suitcase and walked into the forest without looking back.
The three women looked at each other in dismay. They did not have any idea how to survive a storm at a beach. They were completely at a loss!
As Chang Yuan expected, in less than half a minute, the three women caught up with him.
Qiao Yuran was petite, but she was dragging a pile of tree trunks and coconuts behind her.
Zhuo Qianqian did the same. She tied the logs together with grass and dragged them with great effort.
Tong Wei’s foot was injured, but she walked in front of the two of them with the smashed iron pot, some metal cans and bottles.
“Wait for us!” Qiao Yuran shouted at Chang Yuan.
Not long after, Qiao Yuran stopped because she was tired. She was a little mad and grumbled again, “How could you let a weak woman like me carry so many woods!”
Chang Yuan glanced at her and said, “Everyone has their own duty. It’s not easy for any of us.”
“Hmph!” Qiao Yuran put down the woods and sat on the ground, not wanting to speak.
However, as soon as she sat down, she screamed and jumped up, “Ahhh, bugs!”
A rhinoceros beetle the size of a baseball flew out under Qiao Yuran’s feet. She was so scarred that she kept running around. She was running very fast and didn’t look tired at all.
“Ha! Woman!” Chang Yuan criticized in his heart.
Finally, after a long walk, the group arrived at the mountainside.
“Wow, the scenery here is so beautiful!”
They were exhausted, but Qiao Yuran was actually in the mood to look at the scenery. What a weirdo.
The three women were curious. How did Chang Yuan find this place? Besides the nice view, there was a natural cave. The cave was not deep, probably only three meters deep, but it was a hundred times better than the rock pit they slept at last night.
It could also shelter them from the wind and rain, and the height was just right.
Just as they thought of taking a break, a strong wind started to blow. Then, a muffled thunder instantly made the three women nervous.
“Don’t rest now, come here and give me a hand!” Chang Yuan shouted at the three of them.
Chang Yuan had already lined up the logs one by one on the ground and wove them together with grass and hemp rope to make a fence.
He also lifted a few large rocks from the side and placed them at the entrance of the cave.
He sandwiched the fence in the middle with rocks and fixed it, leaving only a small entrance to the cave.
The three women carried their luggage inside.
It was not real “luggage” of course. They were only some trashes that they had picked up from the beach.
“Rumble!”
The muffled thunder became more and more intense.
Chang Yuan was still collecting hay outside. Before the storm arrived, he rushed back to the cave.
Now the dark clouds covered the entire sky. It was completely dark outside, and not far away, a bolt of lightning struck the sea from the sky.
The lightning spread and disappeared like a spider web above the sea.
Then the lightning struck again, and again.
The three women hid in the cave, frightened by the sound of thunder.
Even when they were watching the thunderstorm at home, they would be a little scared when they heard the ear-piercing thunder, not to mention now that they were right in the middle of a storm.
“Whoosh!”
Huge raindrops fell on the mountain, the sea, and the leaves. They could hear the loud noise caused by the raindrops.
Chang Yuan returned to the cave and spread some grasses on the ground to keep them warm.
Zhuo Qianqian looked at Chang Yuan with gratitude. If it weren’t for Chang Yuan’s foresight, they would have spent the night in the storm.
It was impossible for these logs to withstand such heavy rain.
Some trees were broken and fell by the storm.
The interior of the cave was quite spacious. It could accommodate four people. At the same time, there was still some space for their luggage and miscellaneous items. The only miscalculation was they did not bring any fruits.
The few of them listened to the sound of the thunderstorm outside and the sound of their bellies. It was really miserable.
They could only use coconuts to ease their hunger, and it was not enough.
Chang Yuan sat at the entrance of the cave. The barrier he made at the cave entrance blocked the rain. When lightning struck, Chang Yuan suddenly caught a glimpse of something shiny.
“Ka-cha!”
Another bolt of lightning.
This time, Chang Yuan was prepared. He saw that thing clearly. It was his fruit knife.
This meant…
Immediately, Chang Yuan took off his clothes.
“You… What are you doing!” All three women were alarmed. Zhuo Qianqian was the first to speak. She asked vigilantly while holding a wooden stick in her hand.
Tong Wei and Qiao Yuran subconsciously covered their chests and collars and took two steps back.
Chang Yuan paid no attention to them. He quickly took off his clothes. Before stripping completely naked, he stopped and left a pair of underpants on.
Then, he rushed out of the storm without looking back.
“What is he doing?” Qiao Yuran was curious, but she was scared of the thunderstorm and dared not poke her head out to look.
“Ignore him, he’s a weird guy. If he dares to make a move at us, we will teach him a lesson!” Zhuo Qianqian held a wooden stick in her hand and handed wooden sticks to Tong Wei and Qiao Yuran.
A moment later, Chang Yuan came back.
His body was drenched like a waterfall. Both his hair and underwear were soaking wet, and he was holding a shining knife in one hand!
The three women were really frightened. They thought that Chang Yuan was going to attack them.
“You…” Zhuo Qianqian was to threaten him. Then, she stopped when she saw that Chang Yuan was holding a dead rabbit in his other hand.
“Hehe, we have meat to eat tonight!” Chang Yuan said to the three of them excitedly, completely unaware of their hostility towards him.
The three women looked at each other and then looked at Chang Yuan’s almost naked body awkwardly.
It was impossible not to look at him. They couldn’t ask him to turn around, either, because the back view was not much difference.
The three women didn’t know whether to laugh or cry when they saw how embarrassing Chang Yuan was.
“Just wipe your body. If you catch a cold and get sick, what are we going to do!” Tong Wei was the most understanding one. She took out a towel from her suitcase and wiped the rainwater off Chang Yuan’s body.
Chang Yuan was astounded. It was a wonderful feeling to be served by a beautiful flight attendant..
