“Hmm~”
As Tang Chen applied the liniment to Yang Mi’s ankle, she couldn’t help but let out a muffled groan.
The sound made his whole body tingle.
“Ahem…” Tang Chen coughed twice, reminding her, “We need to be quiet. Everyone else is asleep!”
Yang Mi’s moan was too seductive. If anyone else heard it, they would inevitably think the wrong thing.
Fortunately, because of the separation of the sexes, Tang Chen was a bit far from their tent.
With the sound of the waves nearby as cover, even if there was some noise, no one would be able to hear it.
“Captain, I don’t want to make a sound, but… I can’t help it!”
Yang Mi said with a troubled expression, “My foot is now both painful and itchy. Every time you press on my ankle, I feel like I’ve been electrocuted!”
“You have to bear it!” Tang Chen looked into her eyes and reminded her, “After the liniment absorbs, you will recover completely in no time.”
“Thank you, Captain…”
Yang Mi said with a look of gratitude, “Captain, every time I encounter difficulties or get injured, you’re always there by my side. I’m about to become dependent on you!”
Pausing for a moment, she continued, “If you’re not by my side in the future, I don’t know what I’d do!”
“Silly, I’m always by your side, aren’t I?”
Tang Chen gently rubbed her warm, jade-like ankle, reminding her, “We have a long journey ahead of us. We’ll be together for at least one hundred days!”
“But, I want it to be forever…”
Yang Mi said in a voice as soft as a mosquito’s whine.
Her voice was so low that only she could hear it.
However, the space inside the tent was even smaller, and Tang Chen was right across from her, so he heard her words clearly.
“What’s that? You want to be with me forever?”
Tang Chen thought he’d heard wrong and looked up at her.
“Yeah!” Yang Mi nodded, “Captain, do you believe in love at first sight?”
“Of course I do!” Tang Chen chuckled and said to her, “I believe in it so much. All of your passionate fans, aren’t they all in love with you at first sight?”
“This…”
Yang Mi was stunned for a moment, then quickly sat up straight and sat face-to-face with Tang Chen, “Captain, what about you? Are you my fan?”
“You could say that…”
Tang Chen nodded solemnly and said to her, “I follow you on social media, but… it seems you haven’t followed me back!”
“Alright, I’ll follow you back right now!”
Yang Mi smiled, wrapping her arms around Tang Chen’s neck and kissing him on the lips.
Tang Chen didn’t expect her to move so quickly.
Before he could react, he was enveloped in her fragrant embrace.
As they say, a chance encounter between two souls.
At this moment, Tang Chen felt like Yang Mi had earlier, completely electrocuted.
He no longer cared about massaging Yang Mi’s foot. He quickly stretched out his hand and put it around her waist.
Just when their emotions were reaching their peak, they suddenly heard Reba’s call from outside the tent.
“Captain, the weather is great tonight. Let’s go collect honey!”
“Ah? It’s Reba…”
Yang Mi jumped in surprise, quickly breaking free from Tang Chen’s arms, “She… she won’t come in, will she?”
“No…” Tang Chen chuckled and shook his head, “Don’t worry. You stay here. I’ll go check it out!”
“Hmm…”
Yang Mi had no other choice but to nod in disappointment.
They had already ignited a fire and were about to get down to business, but Reba disrupted them.
This little girl, she really came at the “perfect” time.
Under Yang Mi’s gaze, Tang Chen opened the tent and went out.
“Captain, are you asleep?” Seeing Tang Chen, Reba quickly ran over, “I heard you said you were going to take us to collect honey tonight, so… I was so excited that I couldn’t fall asleep!”
“Are you craving honey?”
Tang Chen looked at her with a smile.
“No…” Reba shook her head and explained, “Captain, I just love the feeling of going on adventures with you!”
Pausing, she continued, “You see, Mimi went diving with you, Shi Shi went to catch coconut crabs with you. This time… I want to go collect honey with you!”
Everyone has to get their fair share, right?
Seeing the eager expression on her face, Tang Chen asked with a smile, “Aren’t you afraid of getting stung by bees? It hurts a lot if you get stung by a bee…”
“I’m not afraid!”
Reba shook her head firmly, “As long as I’m with the Captain, I’m not afraid of anything!”
“Alright, if that’s the case, then let’s go!” Tang Chen looked into her eyes and said to her, “Go wait for me by the bonfire first. We need to make a few tools.”
If you want to collect honey, you need to have specialized tools. Only with the right tools can you get the job done efficiently.
“Great! Thank you, Captain!”
Reba was instantly overjoyed at the news, and quickly ran back.
After watching her go, Tang Chen turned back to the tent.
“Whew…”
Seeing this, Yang Mi finally let out a sigh of relief, “You scared me. I thought this little pest was going to come into the tent!”
