Chapter 1291: She Really Didn’t Want Him to Die
Editor: Atlas Studios
Before they reached the cave, raindrops fell.
Arthur sat weakly on a rock and pushed Shi Qian. “Go back to the cave first. I’ll walk over slowly. Don’t worry about me.”
“How can I not care about you! Arthur, there’s only the two of us here now. How can I not care about your life?” Shi Qian held him firmly.
Arthur gritted his teeth and continued walking.
When they returned to the cave, the two of them were already drenched.
Fortunately, the cave could shelter them from the wind and rain.
Shi Qian took out a protein bar, opened it, and stuffed it into Arthur’s mouth.
Arthur had been gone for more than two days. When he left, he had given her everything he could. He must have been hungry for two days.
Arthur wanted to move away, but he suddenly felt something poke him from the side.
He lowered his head and saw a pile of sea urchins the size of a palm. There were more than ten of them, and there was also a pile of abalones beside them. They were also abnormally fat.
“Looks like you’re doing well on the island.”
“I only discovered these things today. If you hadn’t come back today, I was ready to leave.” With that, Shi Qian picked up a sea urchin and pried it open before handing it to Arthur.
“The conditions are bad now, so we can’t care so much. We have to get enough energy. Eat as many as you can. When the rain stops, I’ll pick up some more. I don’t know how badly you’re injured or if you’ll get infection. We have to return to the island as soon as possible.”
“We can’t go back to the island for the time being. Although Bliss’ men were lured away from the island and I’ve assassinated some of them, we can’t rule out the possibility that his people are still looking for us nearby.”
“Doesn’t that mean we have to stay on the island for a few more days?” After Shi Qian finished speaking, she began to think. “Food is not a problem, but is there enough water? When the rain stops, I’ll look for coconut trees. How could I have forgotten? I’ll use the coconut shells to collect some rainwater for backup.”
With that, Shi Qian began to work. She placed the coconut shell on the rock outside the cave and tightened it.
Arthur saw that she was busy and had an indescribable feeling in his heart.
He was willing to stay here with her for the rest of his life.
He hadn’t told the truth just now. The people Bliss had sent this time had basically all died in his hands! Even if there were still one or two, they would be eliminated by Fu Sinian.
Yes, he had discovered Fu Sinian.
He was nearby.
“Arthur, when are your men coming to receive us?” Shi Qian sat back in the cave and couldn’t help but ask Arthur.
“Bliss found my people. They might not be able to get here for a while.”
Shi Qian frowned even more. It seemed that things were really serious.
Actually, Arthur had discovered Fu Sinian, so he didn’t get his men to pick him up.
He wanted the people from Bliss and Fu Sinian to kill each other first so that he could reap the benefits.
“Why don’t you sleep for a while? The rain should stop soon. If you sleep for a while, you can recover some strength.”
“Okay.” Arthur nodded. He leaned against the mountain wall and closed his eyes.
After a while, his head tilted towards Shi Qian’s shoulder.
Shi Qian hesitated for a moment but did not push him away. She just let him lean on her.
Arthur’s lips curled up slightly. Then, he couldn’t take it anymore and fell asleep.
She slept for more than ten hours until the next morning.
Seeing that Arthur had woken up, Shi Qian sighed softly and finally felt relieved.
‘Are you afraid I’m dead? Worried about me?”
