Desert Island Survival: A Hundredfold Improvement After Having a Baby?

Su Qingxue was stunned for a moment.

Lin Fan's words were cryptic, and it was unclear what she meant, but she still replied, "Yes, almost four months."

Lin Fan looked at her and suddenly chuckled.

"It's been four months already, why are you still acting like a vice president?"

Su Qingxue looked up. "When did I put on airs?"

"When have you ever not been so formal?" Lin Fan crossed his arms and tilted his chin towards the hole. "Look at Song Ya. She used to be bossed around by you at the company, and look at her now?"

"She doesn't need to be bossed around anymore. She's busy with everything herself, starting fires, cooking, and cleaning every day. She takes on all the dirty and tiring work."

"Look at yourself again."

Lin Fan didn't hold back in exposing his shortcomings.

"Anything you do is sit there in a daze and wait to be served. If you're asked to add some firewood, you can put the fire out."

"Why don't you learn from this?"

Su Qingxue's chest heaved and her face flushed red as Lin Fan retorted.

She bit her lower lip, wanting to refute, but lacking confidence.

She had never done any manual labor before, let alone any housework.

"I...I don't know why either." Su Qingxue's voice trailed off, her eyes darting away.

"Lately, I've been feeling really sleepy."

"I can't get up in the morning at all. I have no energy at all, and I feel dizzy even if I stand for a long time."

Lin Fan scoffed, completely unconvinced.

"If you're going to make an excuse, at least make one that's plausible."

"Just say you want to slack off, don't pretend to be weak and frail."

Su Qingxue panicked and took a step forward. "I'm not pretending! I really don't feel well!"

"Not feeling well?" Lin Fan retorted. "We eat and drink the same things every day, how come everyone else is fine?"

"Xu Zhixia has only been here for a month, but she already knows to go to the edge of the woods every day to collect some dry firewood and dig up some usable herbs."

"You, Miss Su, are all soft except for your stubborn mouth."

Lin Fan originally only wanted to tease her, but his words made Su Qingxue very uncomfortable.

She could tolerate Lin Fan saying she couldn't do housework, and she could also tolerate Lin Fan comparing her to Song Ya.

But compared to Xu Zhixia, she couldn't stand it.

From that day on, Su Qingxue harbored great hostility towards this woman.

Now Lin Fan is actually praising Xu Zhixia and belittling her right in front of her.

"Lin Fan! Don't go too far!"

Su Qingxue's voice suddenly rose in pitch.

"Yes! I can't do anything! All I can do is eat rice!"

"If you think I'm in your way, or a burden, just say so!"

"So what if I don't work? I'll just stop eating your food! I'll starve to death!" She was trembling with anger.

Looking at her flustered appearance, Lin Fan had to admit that she was much cuter than she had been in the company building before.

Seeing that Lin Fan completely ignored her and didn't even bother to say a kind word, Su Qingxue felt incredibly wronged.

"asshole……"

She gritted her teeth and cursed, then turned around and strode into the depths of the cave.

Lin Fan shook his head. It's nothing serious; he can coax her tonight.

The most important things right now are the snakes that are about to emerge and Wang Laoliu's life.

He was just about to turn his head to continue observing the movements below.

"Bang!"

A dull thud suddenly came from behind.

Lin Fan turned around; he was less than a meter away from him.

Su Qingxue collapsed to the ground without warning.

"Su Qingxue?"

Lin Fan rushed over, squatted down, and patted her cheek.

It was ice-cold to the touch, with absolutely no warmth.

"Su Qingxue, wake up."

He increased the pressure, but Su Qingxue's eyes remained tightly closed, and her lips, which were originally quite rosy, were now pale and bluish.

Lin Fan's heart skipped a beat. This didn't seem like an act, and besides, Su Qingxue wouldn't use such scheming.

The others inside the cave also heard the commotion.

Song Ya was the first to run out. Seeing Su Qingxue lying on the ground, she gasped, covering her mouth in shock, "Oh my god! President Su!"

Lin Fan looked up at Xu Zhixia and yelled, "Xu Zhixia, come here and see! What's wrong with her?!"

Xu Zhixia's expression hardened, and she quickly walked to Su Qingxue's side and knelt down.

Instead of shaking Su Qingxue, she gently pried open her eyelids with her fingers, looked at her pupils, and then quickly placed two fingers on Su Qingxue's fair carotid artery.

Song Ya was so anxious that tears were about to fall. "Dr. Xu, is President Su...is she alright?"

Xu Zhixia did not answer; her brows furrowed even more deeply.

A few seconds later, she grabbed Su Qingxue's wrist again, placed three fingers on her pulse point, closed her eyes, and carefully felt it.

The cave was eerily quiet. As Lin Fan watched Xu Zhixia's increasingly grave expression, his sense of foreboding grew stronger.

Why would someone suddenly faint?

"Oh, I knew it."

Liu Feifei, who had been watching from the sidelines with her arms crossed, suddenly spoke up in a sarcastic tone.

"Some people are born with a life of wealth and privilege, but they are physically weak. When they arrive in this desolate wilderness, they suffer from acclimatization problems. They must have encountered something unclean."

As she spoke, she glanced seriously into the darkness deep within the cave.

"I once heard an older crew member on set say that these kinds of places have the heaviest yin energy, and people with weak constitutions are easily drained of their yang energy. Look at her face, it's as white as paper, isn't that because her yang energy has been absorbed?"

Song Ya was already at a loss, and Liu Feifei's words made her face turn even paler with fright.

Her voice trembled as she tugged at Xu Zhixia's arm.

"Dr. Xu, what she said...it can't be true, can it? Should we...should we offer a prayer?"

"Shut up!"

Xu Zhixia opened her eyes and sternly stopped their nonsense.

Liu Feifei shrank back, startled by her outburst, and muttered under her breath, "That's true, otherwise how could someone who was perfectly fine just collapse like that..."

Xu Zhixia ignored her and instead looked up at Lin Fan, her face extremely grim.

"How is it?" Lin Fan asked.

Xu Zhixia took a deep breath, seemingly organizing her thoughts.

"The situation is very bad."

She said in a low voice, "His heart is beating very fast, but very weak, and his breathing is shallow; he could stop at any moment."

Lin Fan's heart sank. "What illness?"
