Chapter 172 Curiosity will kill the cat

"Sister Lisa, what's wrong with you? I'll call the captain." After saying that, Chen Yanyan raised her feet and ran towards the entrance of the cave, fearing that being a little late would delay Lisa's condition.

Lisa quickly grabbed Chen Yanyan's arm and spoke with some embarrassment.

"Yanyan, I just had some pain just now, but it's much better now."

"Really? Sister Lisa." Chen Yanyan looked at Lisa's arm and found nothing unusual, so she breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm sorry, Yanyan, I was joking with you just now." Lisa pursed her lips and said awkwardly. This was the first time she apologized to others, and she always felt a little weird.

Chen Yanyan shook her head and looked at Lisa with a smile on her face.

"Sister Lisa, it's all because of me that you were injured. Now as long as you can recover, I will do anything you want."

"Fool, we are a family, don't lose your temper again." Lisa looked at the smile on Chen Yanyan's face and suddenly felt as if she had an extra sister, and this feeling was not bad.

She has been an only child since she was a child. Because the family business is huge, she cannot play with other cousins. She is always being plotted against, which makes her always tired of the relationship between sisters.

I have several good girlfriends, but most of them only seek some benefits from her, such as designer bags, or let her introduce some successful people to be their boyfriends.

So Lisa doesn't have many friends around her. Maybe she is afraid of being hurt. Lisa is very cautious in making friends and rarely opens her heart to others.

"What's wrong with you, sister Lisa? Why do you look so ugly? Are you still feeling uncomfortable?" Chen Yanyan looked at Lisa's cold expression and thought it was because she was feeling unwell.

Lisa shook her head, twitched her lips, and forced a smile.

"I'm fine, come here and sit and chat. Don't disturb the captain while he's resting. He's been very tired recently." Lisa led Chen Yanyan towards the fire.

Three women gathered around the fire. It was raining continuously outside. The cold wind blew by, and the three women couldn't help but shiver.

"I'll get some honey water for you to drink." Chen Yanyan remembered that there was a lot of honey in the bamboo basket, so she used a tool to get some, put it in a pot, and rinsed it with low-temperature water.

The three women gathered around the fire, drinking water with honey, which was quite a different experience.

"There has never been such a leisurely time before. I was busy every day." Lisa looked at the honey water in her hand, thoughtfully.

She used to have to go to work and attend meetings even when her aunt was sick. She was troubled by a lot of worries every day. She never dared to stop or fall down.

Because if she falls, no one will work for her to support her.

Whenever something went wrong in the company, her stepmother would come to argue with her. Every time she would break down and want to jump off the building, and her father would follow her stepmother and blame her for her incompetence.

Every time she thought about this, Lisa wanted to escape from that shackles.

Unfortunately, she couldn't let go of her father, so she had no choice but to swallow her anger.

Lisa smiled bitterly, feeling that she was living a very sad life.

"Sister Lisa, there is something wrong with your expression. Are you worried about something?" Chen Yanyan has been observing the changes in Lisa's expression.

I found that something was really wrong with her today. Could it be that the snake venom was not removed, so she felt very uncomfortable?

Lisa forced out a smile that was uglier than crying at Chen Yanyan.

"I'm fine, I just remembered something."

"What's going on? Let's talk about it. It's boring here anyway." Chen Yanyan started gossiping again and looked at Lisa fawningly.

Lisa didn't know what to say for a moment, so she could only say casually.

"I was just thinking that my birthday was coming soon and I didn't know if I could go back." Lisa lowered her head slightly, feeling a little uncomfortable.

It was all because of this damn rainy day that made her so upset.

"Birthday?" Chen Yanyan's eyes widened, she blinked at Lisa and fell silent.

She also doesn't have the ability to celebrate Lisa's birthday, and all her talk is empty talk.

The three women suddenly became quiet, and they could only hear the sound of rain hitting the awning.

About an hour later, Chen Jie woke up, stretched himself, and walked out of the cave.

Seeing the quiet expressions of the three women, Chen Jie rubbed his eyes.

It's really rare that these three women can be so quiet.

"Woof woof." Miracle suddenly walked out of the kennel, came to the entrance of the bamboo ladder, and barked twice at Chen Jie.

"What's wrong, Miracle, are you missing the little bitch?" Chen Jie looked at Miracle with a wicked smile.

Miracle whimpered a few times and looked at Chen Jie with contempt, as if to say, you just miss women.

"Captain, you woke up, how are you feeling?" Chen Yanyan turned her head, and a big smile appeared on her face the moment she saw Chen Jie.

"Refreshed." Chen Jie said with a smile, walked down the bamboo ladder and came to the fire. He looked at Lisa's red eyes, and it was obvious that she had just cried.

Xiao Baihe also looked at the fire with a dull expression, seemingly immersed in his own world and unable to extricate himself.

"That's good. Are you hungry? I'll get you something to eat." Chen Yanyan said enthusiastically, got up and walked towards the meat drying rack, intending to grill some meat for Chen Jie.

Chen Jie shook his head and spoke to stop Chen Yanyan's movements.

"Yanyan, I'm not hungry yet, I'm just a little thirsty." Chen Jie squatted down, picked up the bamboo tube on the ground, unscrewed it and drank.

"Captain, what is that thing you made above?" Chen Yanyan walked towards Chen Jie and pointed to the bowl on the firewood pile. It looked red and delicious.

Only now did Chen Jie remember that he had made sucrose for lunch.

He stood up and walked over. Seeing that the sucrose in the bowl had solidified into lumps and seemed to be of good quality, Chen Jie smiled. It seemed that his craftsmanship was pretty good.

Holding one of the bowls, Chen Jie walked to the fire, took out a knife, made a few sharp cuts in the bowl, took out the sucrose inside, and put it in the bowl.

"Boil some water. Let's drink some hot water today." After Chen Jie finished speaking, he picked up the spare bamboo tube on the side, poured the water in the pot, placed it on the fire, and started to boil.

"Oh, captain, you are almost killing me. Tell me quickly, my good captain." Chen Yanyan's mentality was like a cat's paw, and she was very curious about Chen Jie's operation.

"Yanyan, haven't you heard the proverb, curiosity will kill the cat." Chen Jie smiled, but it wasn't that he was trying to show off.

I just want to see Chen Yanyan’s anxious little face, it’s really cute.

"Captain, I'm not a cat, so it's okay to be curious." Chen Yanyan said with a smile, holding Chen Jie's arm and shaking it.
