Lifting her collar bit by bit, those little red dots were still shocking.
I grabbed a handful of herbal leaves, rubbed them in my hands, and then gently applied them on her neck.
Her body trembled, as if she had been electrocuted.
"What does it feel like?" I asked.
“It’s cool and very comfortable.”
"It's okay if you can't see. If you see what's going on behind you, you'll probably go crazy."
"What? Is it scary?"
"Do you have trypophobia?"
"fine."
"That's okay. I have it, so I'm quite scared."
As I spoke, I pulled her clothes down to expose her entire shoulders.
Just like the neck, it was covered with dense red dots, which gave me goosebumps all over my body.
So I didn't pause and applied it to her quickly.
When I pulled the clothes down again, I couldn't pull them anymore.
Wang Yi said to me: "I still need to unbutton it, right?"
"Well, you can take it off, I won't look around."
She smiled and said, "Actually, it doesn't matter whether you see it or not. There are only two of us here. You can do whatever you want."
"If you say something nonsense again, you'll do it yourself."
"Okay, I won't say anything anymore, you can do it."
After she unbuttoned all the buttons, the shirt on her body hung down naturally, and she was completely naked.
Of course, I could only see her entire back, without any evil thoughts, and even felt my scalp numb.
Her whole back felt like it was being burned by fire, and was covered in dense red dots. It made me extremely uncomfortable, and I felt like my whole body was crawling with ants.
Seeing that I was hesitant to make a move, she asked me, "What's wrong?"
"I was wondering, what on earth was you bitten by, and why was it so serious?"
"I don't know, I just started itching all of a sudden."
"You are so miserable! I hope this herb is useful."
With that said, I continued to apply it all over her back.
Wang Yi suddenly said "Oh", not sure if it was pain or something else.
I immediately asked her: "What's wrong?"
"No, it's okay...it's quite, quite comfortable."
"You're still enjoying it!"
"It's really comfortable and chilly, I can't put it into words."
"Okay, let it dry for a while. I'll go out first. I'll call you later and you can put on your clothes."
"What are you doing out there?"
I said speechlessly: "You are naked, and I am stuck here too?"
"It's alright!"
"You're fine, I'm fine."
After that, I left the cave.
Sitting at the entrance of the cave, I stared at the stars in the sky and began to miss An Lan and my children again.
Suddenly I saw a shooting star passing by, and I quickly made a wish, hoping to leave here as soon as possible.
I really regret it. If I could get out of here alive, I would never go my own way again or devote my energy to work.
I might sell the company and be an ordinary person from now on.
Really, this is my truest thought right now.
But the premise is that I can leave here alive, and that An Lan and the children are well.
These years of business experience have also made me deeply understand the truth. No matter how hard you work, no matter how capable you are, if you do not have a strong backing and a strong heart, you will never be able to keep your feet on the ground.
Every day you live is a torment, you have to think about many things, and you have to be wary of the villains and competitors around you.
Even if you can handle all of these easily, there will still be someone who is no match for you and will crush you to pieces with just a flick of his finger.
Now that I think about it, I realize that my previous thoughts were really too naive.
Suddenly I wanted to smoke a cigarette to relieve my pain, but I had not smoked for several days, so I had to pick up a small wooden stick on the ground and put it between my fingertips to use it as a cigarette.
Until Wang Yi's voice came from the cave: "Chen Feng, can I put it on?"
I then replied: "Okay, put it on."
After she called me again, I returned to the cave.
She was surprised and delighted and said to me: "It really works. Now I don't feel so itchy."
"Not so awesome, right?"
"Really, I just feel chilly now."
"That might be useful."
"What's wrong with you? You feel a little bad? Does it hurt?"
"What do you think?"
"Then what should I do? Are there any herbs that can relieve the pain?"
"Yes, but it doesn't work for me. My bones hurt."
Wang Yi sighed again: "Now we are both sick."
I smiled bitterly and said, "Just now I was thinking about why I am alive."
"You don't...want to die too, do you? But don't!"
"Don't worry, I won't seek death. I haven't lived enough. I mean the meaning of life."
"Then have you figured it out?"
"It's more or less the same. Maybe everyone's understanding is different."
"Then how do you understand?"
I gave another wry smile, and while turning the chicken on the shelf, I said, "Simple, plain."
"Well, this is something that many people have, but many people live uneasy lives."
"I used to feel the same way, and I even thought it was shameless for those people to say such things! Of course it is easy for rich people to say it is simple, but for a poor person to be simple, it is not simple anymore."
"It is what it is."
"Indeed, so I can't change anything. If I can get out alive this time, I might live another life and not be in business again."
"Isn't it a pity that you don't have the brain for business?"
"What a pity?" I chuckled, and after being silent for a while, I said, "There is nothing to be pity about. I cherish my life. If my life is gone, everything will be gone."
"Well, that makes sense."
Wang Yi was silent for a while, and then said: "If I can get out alive, I will become a nun."
"seriously?"
"Well, I've thought about it clearly."
"All right."
The conversation suddenly came to an abrupt end, and the cave became silent for a moment, except for the "crackling" sound of firewood burning.
Also, the wind blowing in from outside the cave carries a faint smell of sea.
The pheasant meat was almost done, so I still gave half of it to Wang Yi.
She said to me: "I can't eat so much, please eat more."
"Hurry up and take it, it's hot to your hands."
Only then did Wang Yi take it, but because it was hot to his hands, he kept switching his left and right hands.
I just picked up the chicken legs and started to eat them. Although it was tasteless, the pure pheasant meat was really fragrant, and the meat was not bad at all. The skin had been burnt, and it was so crispy when I took a bite.
Delicious food on earth.
Wang Yi took a bite and praised: "Mom, this is so delicious!"
"Did you know? It's illegal to eat this."
"I know, but no one here knows."
"Actually, this is also my first time eating pheasant meat. I can only say Amitabha to this pheasant,"
Wang Yi laughed: "Can you please stop teasing me?"
I also smiled, and Wang Yi suddenly said: "Seriously, if you don't consider anything else, would you like to live on this island forever?"
I thought for a moment, shook my head and said, "I don't want to."
"I mean, are you still willing to take An Lan and your child with you?" she asked very seriously.
