Chapter 145 Discovering the Island
Carefully recalling my thought process and the details of my feelings, I increasingly feel the need to sort things out! Is it true that living too long makes one weary of life? I should only be a passerby in the world of film and television, but I invested too much emotion in the first world, making it difficult to integrate into the second. And the more I try to integrate, the stronger the resistance becomes deep within my heart.
I always hope to live up to Yang Xiuyuan, Zhang Zhipeng, Andy, and Ji Xiaotong in this world, but all of this seems like a sacrifice and separation, as if I'm preparing to leave at any time.
Is the reason for doing this because living too long will make one's emotions become indifferent?
There is no answer to this question! At least, you won't find the answer from others! You have to find the answer yourself.
Zhang Liangjun looked at the railings on the yacht and felt that the 1.2-meter railings were really not safe. After returning, he raised the railings to two meters!
The system also breathed a slight sigh of relief; the host had almost failed the test of tempering the mind! Otherwise, they would have had to find a new host again!
With no journey to catch, the yacht simply drifts along in place.
The ship has many rooms, with the largest being a master bedroom with a custom-made king-size bed by Zhang Liangjun. There are six guest bedrooms, all roughly the same size. The staff quarters are downstairs; although two people share a room, they are still more spacious than those on other ships.
In order to get rid of his mental thoughts, Zhang Liangjun decided to double his exercise in the evening!
Therefore, when it came time to assign rooms, only Qu Xiaoxiao and Kong Kong each had their own room.
In the guest room, Qu Xiaoxiao listened to pop music while planning her mission. She was determined to succeed on this voyage! She took out a pillow similar to Zhang Liangjun's, set the music to stop, and then fell asleep while hugging the pillow.
Kong Kong was silently recording the time, and in her bedroom, some strange noises could be heard.
The first person only lasted fifteen minutes, the second person lasted twenty-three minutes, the third person lasted eighteen minutes, and the last person lasted a whopping thirty-two minutes! What terrified me most was that they had a second round!
Zhang Liangjun had never released all his energy so freely before. Although he did not reach his physical limit, it gave him a clearer understanding of himself.
Early in the morning, Zhang Liangjun walked out of the bedroom, feeling refreshed, and closed the door behind him to prevent any glimpse of the beautiful spring scenery inside. Just then, Kongkong opened her door and came out as well. "Kongkong, good morning! Did you go to bed late last night? Your dark circles are quite noticeable!"
The morning sea breeze was a bit chilly. Kong Kong had already changed into a beige beach dress, and gave Zhang Liangjun a shy glare, too embarrassed to admit that it was because Zhang Liangjun was making too much noise that she hadn't been able to sleep all night! Kong Kong thought that the competition would be over after the second round, but she didn't expect that there were still two people persisting in the third round!
"Teacher Zhang, have you...have you eaten?" I wanted to ask Zhang Liangjun why he wasn't sleepy, but then I realized that this was a difficult question to ask, so I cleverly changed the subject.
Zhang Liangjun opened the porch door at the end of the corridor. "I see you just got up too, right? Come on, let's go get something to eat!"
Liu Guifen had already prepared bread, made a few simple sandwiches, and poured two cups of hot milk, which she then served to Zhang Liangjun and his companion.
Enjoying a leisurely breakfast in a semi-open restaurant, with a refreshing sea breeze blowing, and a handsome guy by my side, Kong Kong really likes this kind of day. It's so nice!
Kong Kong didn't want to go back to that messy, chaotic home. Her parents were estranged and spent all their time scheming against each other at work. Her younger brother was just looking for a good life and spent his days partying with his friends in bars and karaoke, and he even wanted to take over the jewelry store that she had worked so hard to build!
It's no wonder the two became friends. Kong Kong's family is very similar to Qu Xiaoxiao's. The only difference is that Kong Kong's younger brother is her biological brother!
Before the two had finished eating, Qu Xiaoxiao came over and said, "Teacher Zhang, Kongkong! You didn't even invite me to eat!"
"We came out to relax, and knowing you like to sleep in, we didn't want to bother you." Zhang Liangjun waved his hand, gesturing for Qu Xiaoxiao to sit down next to him.
Qu Xiaoxiao also ordered the same breakfast from the chef. "Where are Sister Xiaotong and the others?"
Qu Xiaoxiao is essentially a carefree person. She fell asleep while listening to music last night and was not disturbed by Zhang Liangjun at all. So she has no idea what heinous things Zhang Liangjun did yesterday.
Zhang Liangjun was slightly embarrassed. "The four of them played cards until a bit late yesterday, so let them sleep in a little longer today!"
As they were talking, the captain came over. "Boss, we've spotted a small island to the northeast. According to the map, it doesn't look like anyone lives there. Shall we go check it out?"
"Teacher Zhang, it's a deserted island! Let's go take a look!" Qu Xiaoxiao hadn't even swallowed the sandwich in her mouth when she grabbed Zhang Liangjun's arm and shook it back and forth.
"We can go up and take a look, but we need to change our clothes first." Zhang Liangjun saw that Qu Xiaoxiao was still wearing a swimsuit similar to yesterday's, and her hands were already freezing cold. Going to the island might be dangerous, so some protective measures would be needed. Going to the island in a swimsuit was not an option.
Zhang Liangjun had the yacht circle the island twice. The island was really small; the two laps took less than half an hour. Three sides of the island had relatively gentle beaches, while the northernmost side was a steep cliff.
After using radar to monitor the nearby fish population and confirming there were no large fish within 500 meters, Zhang Liangjun felt reassured enough to board the four-seater speedboat. Zhou Hong was driving. Zhang Liangjun had considerable faith in this retired female soldier's abilities. In a life-or-death struggle, he felt he might not be able to defeat Zhou Hong. But in a race, he was certain of victory, given that his physical strength was already close to the limits of an average person.
The four men, fully armed, cautiously surveyed the island, only to find they were being far too cautious! Aside from some small lizards, there wasn't even a trace of a snake.
This island is too small to be suitable for large terrestrial creatures. If migratory birds don't pass by during their migration, perhaps only a few seabirds will visit this island. On the other hand, there are many marine creatures, both in terms of quantity and variety. Zhang Liangjun saw four or five kinds of crabs alone.
The group landed at a point where a beach met a giant rock. After searching around, the four returned to the original beach. "Little Red, this beach is nice! The sand is fine and clean. Do you think we can play here?"
Zhou Hong was not good with words. Upon hearing the command, she began to search around, even digging up several patches of sand with a shovel to check the underground conditions. Finally, she returned to report to Zhang Liangjun, "Boss, this place is fine, there is no danger. But do not leave the area of this beach. There may be some poisonous insects in the woods, so try not to enter the wooded area."
