Chapter 941: Rain on the Desolate Island....
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation | Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
There were still traces of human activity here. For example, there were black ashes left behind by the fire on the large rocks by the shore. It was probably someone having a picnic here.
Zhuang Liu moved the things from the yacht down, mainly food, drinks, and some daily necessities. There was no place to buy things on this island, and even the signal was not very good. There was only some signal at the northernmost end of the sea.
“Xiao Rou, how many days do you want to stay here?” Zhuang Liu asked.
Although Tan Rou liked the environment here, the signal here was too bad. She wanted to stay here for two days before going back.
“Let’s go back the day after tomorrow.” Tan Rou said, “You’ve been out for so many days. You must have a lot of work piled up. I also have a lot of things that I haven’t finished. Let’s go back and settle some work first. We’ll then go on another trip next time.”
Zhuang Liu agreed with Tan Rou. He had a lot of work on his hands. He would probably have to work for a month when he returned from the trip. The resources near the deserted island were very rich, especially the fish and coconuts on the island. There were countless of them.
During the day, they strolled around the deserted island and caught some fish. At night, they spent the night on the deserted island. Once the tent was propped up, it was very comfortable inside.
There were a lot of mosquitoes on the island, but it didn’t affect them. Their big tent came with mosquito-repellent equipment, so no mosquitoes would come and disturb them. The top of the tent could be opened, and through the dense gauze curtains, one could see the starry sky above.
Tan Rou lay in the tent and admired the starry sky. “The pollution of the environment is very serious now. I haven’t seen such a beautiful starry sky in a long time.”
Zhuang Liu lay down beside her. “If you like it, we can go to places where we can see the stars better.”
“Alright!” Tan Rou suggested, “Next time, let’s go to the North Pole to see the aurora borealis. It’ll be summer in the northern hemisphere!”
“Alright, we’ll go together,” Zhuang Liu agreed.
As time passed, just as Tan Rou and Zhuang Liu were about to sleep, the sound of a strong wind came from outside. Then, a few drops of rain fell into their tent.
Tan Rou sat up immediately. “It’s raining!”
Zhuang Liu frowned. The environment on the sea was good, but it was difficult to find the trajectory of the climate here. It was still full of stars just now, and now it started to rain.
“Close the zipper on the tent.” Zhuang Liu reacted very quickly. “We don’t know how long this rain will last. We definitely can’t go back now, so we have to spend the night in the heavy rain.”
He grabbed Tan Rou’s hand and apologized. “Rourou, I’m sorry. I didn’t consider the situation here. If I knew it would rain tonight, I definitely wouldn’t have brought you here.”
Tan Rou smiled. “It’s just heavy rain. What’s there to be afraid of?” She also patted Zhuang Liu’s shoulder. “Don’t worry, we’ll be fine.”
As soon as she finished speaking, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled outside. Bean-sized raindrops fell from the sky. The raindrops hit their tent as if they were going to break through it.
Tan Rou could see that their tent was bouncing from the rain. If it wasn’t for the fact that the tent was sturdy, it would have been destroyed long ago.
“I can’t sleep.” Tan Rou was quite optimistic. “Ah Liu, let’s sit up and chat.”
Zhuang Liu’s mood was relatively low. He had originally wanted to bring Tan Rou here to experience the life of camping on a deserted island, but he did not expect to encounter a storm. He did not experience the wonderful camping life, but he did experience the storm on the deserted island.
Thunder and lightning took turns, as if they were about to strike their tents.
Tan Rou sat in the tent. She rested her chin on her hand and chuckled. “Alt Liu, what if our tent breaks down or our yacht gets washed away by the sea?”
Zhuang Liu hugged her. “I’ll send an SOS signal to get someone to save you.”
“What if our phones run out of battery?” Tan Rou laughed.
“Then I’ll swim back to the shore from here and get someone to come and save you,” Zhuang Liu said firmly.
Tan Rou knew that what Zhuang Liu said was true. If they couldn’t go back, Zhuang Liu would swim back.
“Let’s swim back together.” Tan Rou leaned into Zhuang Liu’s arms. “But I still hope that the rain will stop soon.”
