Chapter 105 Lonely Men and Widows

"Rumble~" With a thunder that resounded across the sky, a thick bolt of lightning flashed over the desert island, illuminating the entire island as if it were daytime. The strong wind blew the big trees on the island to this side, and the people who perched on the trees were shaken.

The seabirds were helplessly wailing in their nests under the power of heaven and earth.

Another bolt of lightning flashed across, and raindrops the size of soybeans finally fell. In the blink of an eye, the entire earth was covered with a layer of water. Everything in the world was struggling under the raging wind and rain. Zhou Zhong in the woods cursed at God.

With a loud noise, he struggled to hold a few bundles of firewood and threw them into the shack where he lived. Seeing the rainstorm getting heavier and heavier, Zhou Zhong estimated that the firewood was almost gone, so he immediately got into the shack.

Now the shack has been divided into two parts by Xie Lingyun. She sleeps on the right side, and Zhou Chong sleeps on the left side. In addition, in front of the partition between the two, there is a small clay stove with some small firewood in it.

Zhengwang, this stove can not only be used to bake things, but also to keep warm at night.

Xie Lingyun, who was sitting inside sorting things, saw Zhou Zhong come in all wet, and immediately stood up to help him take off his wet clothes. He took them to the stove to bake and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Zhou. I have already prepared dinner."

, just eat it while it’s hot!”

"It's grilled fish again, I really have no appetite!" Zhou Zhong, wearing only a small coat, squatted by the stove and complained. They didn't have an iron pot, so these days they had grilled fish for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and occasionally ate some.

There were sea urchins or abalone, and wild vegetables found in the woods, but unfortunately they were all raw, which was really unappetizing.

Seeing Zhou Zhong being picky about food like a child, Xie Lingyun showed an elegant smile on his somewhat haggard face. He reached out and picked up a bamboo tube filled with water and brought it to Zhou Zhong and said: "Today's grilled fish should taste good. I'll put it in

You put some honey on it that you got in the woods last time. How do you like it?"

Hearing Xie Lingyun mention honey, Zhou Zhong couldn't help but touch his right cheek, where the lump had not completely fallen away. Last time he found a swarm of bees in the woods, and in order to get the honey inside, he ended up with several bees on his face.

The big bee stung her hard several times, causing one side of Lao Gao's face to become swollen, which made Xie Lingyun laugh for a long time.

Holding the grilled golden fish, Zhou Zhong tore off a piece of hot fish meat and stuffed it into his mouth to taste. He found that the fish meat indeed had a sweet flavor. It also covered up the fishy smell of sea fish very well.

After going down, Zhou Zhong immediately whetted his appetite. He grabbed the grilled fish and started chewing it.

It wasn't until he ate a fish cleanly and drank a few sips of the water handed over by Xie Lingyun that Zhou Zhong felt much more comfortable in his stomach, especially when he heard the sound of the violent storm outside, which further highlighted the atmosphere in the small shack.

peaceful.

"Boom~" There was another thunder outside, and Xie Lingyun, who was helping Zhou Zhong bake clothes, trembled with fright and almost dropped the clothes in his hands into the stove. Through the dim light from the stove, Zhou Zhong noticed that Xie Lingyun was at this moment

Her face turned pale. She couldn't help but laugh and said, "Why, Miss Xie is afraid of thunder?"

"Yes...a little!" Xie Lingyun said with a trembling voice. In fact, it was more than just a little. She had been afraid of thunder since she was a child. Every time there was a thunder, she would run to her mother, and then her mother would hold her before she could fall asleep.

"Hahaha~, I didn't expect that Miss Xie would be scared sometimes." Zhou Chong laughed heartlessly, but then he suddenly stopped, turned to Xie Lingyun and said ambiguously, "Look at how it looks today.

, it is estimated that the thunder will last all night, if Miss Xie is really scared, she can come to my place to sleep, but I have never been very calm, if anything happens, I will not be responsible!"

The originally warm atmosphere was completely destroyed by Zhou Zhong's words. After hearing this, Xie Lingyun glared at him fiercely and said: "Young Master Zhou doesn't have to worry about it. Lingyun can handle her own affairs by herself. I just hope."

It’s best that you don’t cross the line yourself!”

When Xie Lingyun said this, the clothes in her hands were finally dried. She threw them on Zhou Zhong casually, then she went back to her sleeping place on the left and sat down, never looking at Zhou Zhong again. Zhou Zhong, on the other hand,

Smiling, he put on his dried clothes and returned to his area to rest.

Speaking of which, they have been on this desert island for five or six days. In addition, a man and a woman are alone in the same room. Even if they are a pair of strangers, something will happen. But the strange thing is that Zhou Chong

He and Xie Lingyun have always adhered to etiquette and have not done anything out of the ordinary. The reasons for this situation are very complicated.

Speaking of the grudge between Zhou Zhong and Xie Lingyun, it is very complicated and very simple. At the beginning, Xie Lingyun simply wanted to use Zhou Zhong to control the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce, but then Zhou Zhong's performance was completely beyond her expectation.

This made her plan go bankrupt, and as the two of them got along, Xie Lingyun could not help but develop a certain affection for Zhou Zhong. However, these favorable impressions could not be called likes, they were just a girl's feelings for another man of comparable talent and appearance.

It's just curiosity.

But things got a little complicated next. With Zhou Zhong joining, the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce has established a momentum for its rise. This has made the Xie family feel a serious threat, and the best way is to get rid of Zhou Zhong.

Although Xie Lingyun didn't want to do this, her father's pressure and the family's interests finally made her decide to get rid of the hidden danger Zhou Zhong.

It's a pity that there are too many accidents in this world. First, Kamiizumi Hongji kidnapped two people, and then encountered the big storm. While in the cabin, many things happened between the two people, especially at the critical moment of life and death.

Everyone threw away their disguises. Even at the last moment, Xie Lingyun cried and hugged Zhou Zhong and said she didn't want him to die. The true feelings revealed were shocking. Zhou Zhong was not a fool, so he felt it naturally.

arrive.

After life and death, Zhou Zhong originally thought he could get along well with Xie Lingyun. He even thought about the possibility of the two of them being together, and how to deal with the conflict of interests between the two chambers of commerce in the future?

But what Zhou Zhong didn't expect was that during the few days they got together, Xie Lingyun acted very contradictory. Sometimes she was very enthusiastic about Zhou Zhong, and she cared about him everywhere. Even unintentionally, the two of them had a close relationship.

When contacted, she just blushed and lowered her head, not rejecting him very much. She also tried to cook different food for Zhou Zhong every day. When he was with her, Zhou Zhong felt very comfortable and at ease.

However, sometimes Xie Lingyun is completely different. Just like when Zhou Zhong first met her, he had a calm and calm expression on his face, as if nothing could cause her emotional turmoil. Although he was polite and considerate on the surface, he was

He also shut others away. What Zhou Zhong hated most was seeing Xie Lingyun talking to him with such an expression.

It was Xie Lingyun's hot and cold attitude that made Zhou Zhong very uncomfortable. Even whenever he saw Xie Lingyun talking to him with that calm expression, he couldn't help but want to rush up to her fiercely, and then...

Tear off her disguise and let the real Xie Lingyun come out to talk to her.

Of course, the above is just an emotional aspect. Zhou Zhong and Xie Lingyun are both in adolescence of fifteen or sixteen years old. If they sleep in the same room every day and rub their hair together, they will definitely have some physical impulses. Zhou Zhong does not deny this. He

I have had thoughts about Xie Lingyun more than once. After all, this is a deserted island. God knows if anyone will find them, and there are no legal or moral constraints here. It is natural for something to happen between the two of them.

But during these days together, Zhou Zhong resisted his physical urges. In addition to the complicated feelings between the two mentioned above, there was another very important reason.

When Zhou Zhong and Xie Lingyun were kidnapped by Shangquan Honger, only the Xie family were present, so the only ones who could find them must be the Xie family. If he wanted to escape safely then, he would have only two ways. The first is

Let Xie Lingyun let her go willingly, and the second is to hold her hostage and threaten the Xie family to send her to the shore. Either way, Xie Lingyun's cooperation is required.

It was precisely with this in mind that Zhou Zhong did not dare to do anything outrageous to Xie Lingyun, let alone use force. After all, he did not intend to stay on this desert island for the rest of his life, and Aunt Wang, Zhuo'er and the others were waiting at home.

He cares about himself, so he must go back alive no matter what, and he must not lose the big for the small.

Thinking of Aunt Wang, Zhuo'er, Duo'er and the others at home, Zhou Zhong, who was lying in the thatch, couldn't help but sigh. Originally, he wanted to spend a good New Year with them, but he didn't expect that something like this happened.

Now that the year has passed, I don’t know how anxious they will be after discovering that they are missing?

Zhou Zhong was lying there thinking about his family. Xie Lingyun, who was separated from him by a wooden board, curled up into a ball, covered his ears with his hands and closed his eyes tightly. His little head was lowered fiercely, wishing he could

They are all buried in the small but very pert breasts.

"Boom~" As the thunder roared outside, Xie Lingyun's crouched body would tremble every time. All creatures have an instinctive fear of thunder, even humans are no exception, but some people can overcome it.

This kind of fear, such as Zhou Chong, but some people will always be extremely afraid of thunder throughout their lives, and it has nothing to do with gender or age. For example, Xie Lingyun belongs to the latter group.

Listening to the continuous thunder outside, Xie Lingyun felt as if she had been abandoned by the whole world, so lonely and helpless. Although she told herself in her heart that those thunder and lightning could not hurt her at all, but

But he still couldn't suppress the fear that emerged from his bones.

It was this kind of helplessness and loneliness, coupled with the boundless fear in her heart, that Xie Lingyun finally couldn't bear it anymore and began to cry softly. But not long after she cried, she suddenly heard Zhou Zhong crying on the other side.

While knocking on the partition, he said: "Hey, are you still letting people sleep in the middle of the night? If you are really scared, then come here, don't hold on for dear life!" (To be continued, please search
