Chapter 7 Money is not everything

Chapter 7 Money is not everything

Bai Wenwen stood in front of Zhang Long.

This move made Zhang Long feel a little uncomfortable. In the past year, he had openly accepted Bai Wenwen's protection like a loser.

Now that everyone is living on a deserted island, he wants to use his own strength to protect this little woman, but he doesn't expect that sometimes he still can't change the situation.

Bai Wenwen doesn't think so.

"Be careful, and there are a lot of wild fruits in the forest that you can eat. If you are hungry, just keep these coconuts for now."

He Ming punched the coconut tree with his fist.

"Wenwen, he is just a waste, why do you..."

"Stop talking, it's getting late, let's go quickly."

After that, he took the girl and left.

He Ming's chest rose and fell violently, and he glared at Zhang Long fiercely.

"Just wait for me!"

Everyone picked wild fruits while walking, and arrived at the cave that Zhang Long had found before.

The cave is relatively low-lying, and there are some weeds, moss, and dampness inside.

But thanks to the weeds and moss, it proved that no animals lived in this cave, and it could provide shelter for the group.

After entering the cave, the group of people looked for a place to put down their things and rubbed their shoulders and legs, except for Zhang Long.

"I'm going to collect firewood."

Leaving these words behind, Zhang Long walked out alone.

It was almost dark at this time, the forest was so dark that no light could be seen, and all kinds of birds and animals were about to come out and move about.

However, among other things, dry firewood is everywhere in this primeval forest.

In a short time, I picked up a large bundle, and also picked up a few mushrooms.

Just as he was about to go back, he heard a click behind him.

Zhang Long instantly stopped what he was doing.

Oops!

Something is coming.

Zhang Long swallowed a sip of saliva and slowed down his movements to touch the steel pipe with a sharp end on his waist.

Then the cat bent down and walked towards the bush where the sound came from...

The heart beats faster.

"Whoa!"

A black shadow suddenly appeared.

Zhang Long gritted his teeth and stamped his feet, then thrust the steel pipe in his hand forward!

"ah!"

A shrill scream echoed in the woods.

He Ming fell to the ground, his face pale, obviously frightened by Zhang Long.

After all, if the steel pipe just moved forward a little bit, a hole would be poked out of his head!

Seeing that it was him, Zhang Long couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

"Why are you following me?"

Seeing Zhang Long's impatient look, He Ming instantly became angry. He forgot about his fear, jumped up, grabbed Zhang Long's collar and roared.

"Did you do this on purpose?"

Zhang Long's expression did not change.

"How could I know it was you because you were silent? It's not like you don't know how many wild beasts there are in this forest!"

He Ming was speechless for a moment, his eyes a little dodgey.

"I……"

Suddenly he seemed to remember something and calmed down.

"Zhang Long, I know you are short of money, so I became the son-in-law of Bai Wenwen's family. When I get back, I will give you 500,000, and you should stay away from Bai Wenwen from now on!"

Zhang Long pushed him away.

"Let's not talk about whether you will fulfill your promise, or whether we can go back is still a question."

With that said, he picked up the firewood on the ground and walked back.

"Money is not all powerful."

He Ming was shocked by Zhang Long's actions.

In the past, Zhang Long was just a loser who didn't talk much, the kind of person who even the models with the least resources looked down upon.

Now this guy actually seems like a different person!

He Ming suddenly thought that he, the successor to the company's president, was being tricked by someone like him, and He Ming instantly became furious.

"You... just wait for me, wait until we get out from here and see how I kill you!"

The only answer he received was the strange chirping of birds.

Only then did He Ming realize that the sky had turned completely dark. His eyes widened in an instant, he looked around uneasily, and ran back as if he was running away.

After arriving at the camp, I found everyone gathered around a pot made of airplane iron, waiting to drink soup made from canned pork and mushrooms.

They sat together pretending nothing happened.

Zhang Long and his eyes intertwined.

The two of them made a tacit agreement not to say a word about what just happened.

"These things like ours won't last long. We have to go out tomorrow to search for supplies, food, drink, and firewood. We also have to chop sticks to make armor."

Zhang Long said calmly.

Zhang Xiaotong added, teaching them how to recognize wild fruits and what to do when encountering emergencies.

Bai Wenwen stood up and clapped her hands out of habit.

"Okay, now that the mission has been decided, let's work in groups tomorrow, three in a group. Now everyone can form a team freely."

Soon, the girls were divided into teams.

Except He Ming.

In Yuan Lu's words, the forest is so big that it is inevitable to encounter wild animals. If He Ming pushes him out as a shield, the gain will outweigh the loss.

He Ming's face turned red with anger.

But I can't explain why.

There was a hint of sinisterness in Zhang Long's eyes.

Everyone laughed, and after sharing the broth, they took turns keeping watch.

We set out early the next morning.

Zhang Long, Yuan Lu and Bai Wenwen were in a group of three.

On the way, Yuan Lu couldn't help but sigh. She talked about all the extravagance and waste in the city before, and said that He Ming was a scum.

However, this long string of words went in Zhang Long's left ear and out her right ear, and all her attention fell on the pair that kept shaking as she walked.

That thing looks like tofu, white and tender, one size larger than Zhang Xiaotong's, and has a more mature charm.

I don’t know if I can grab it with one hand…

"Speaking of which, I really thanked you last time. If you hadn't helped me find herbs and used clothes to make bandages to stop the bleeding, my life would have been lost long ago."

Yuan Lu said, looking at him gratefully.

"Why didn't I realize you could do so many things before? It's really amazing!"

Zhang Long smiled and scratched the back of his head.

"It's all the experience I accumulated when I was a reporter before. It's no big deal."

"By the way, see if this can be fixed."

Yuan Lu said and handed a mobile phone to Zhang Long.

Zhang Long didn't reach out to pick it up at all, he just smiled bitterly.

I'm not omnipotent, I can do everything.

"Not to mention that there are no tools here, but if your phone is smashed like this, there is definitely no way to repair it."

Yuan Lu sighed after hearing this. Although she was a little disappointed, she still praised him.

Along the way, I had to ask questions no matter what. Although Zhang Long felt a little annoyed, he still answered patiently.

All this was watched silently by Bai Wenwen, who had been silent all this time.

Although she didn't say anything, her heart felt as if a five-flavor bottle had been knocked over. It didn't feel right, and she always felt blocked.

Looking at the two people talking and laughing, Bai Wenwen suddenly felt...

Am I jealous?
