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

"Xu Zhixia, can't you understand me? I told you to put your clothes on first." Lin Fan's tone became more forceful.

Looking at Lin Fan, Xu Zhixia neither acted coquettishly nor cried.

She pulled out her soaked vest and put it back on. The cold fabric against her skin made her shiver involuntarily.

"My underwear is all wet, I'll take it off and just wear my jacket!"

"Whatever." Lin Fan turned his face upstream and continued stuffing leaf strips into his nostrils.

I won't watch it, absolutely not.

Lin Fan's act of being a modern-day Liu Xiahui (a paragon of virtue) is not because of his high moral awareness, but purely because the price he pays is too high.

A moment of pleasure, but a lifetime of regret afterwards.

This desolate island has no obstetrics and gynecology department, no ultrasound, and you can't even find a single injection to prevent miscarriage.

After a long while, Xu Zhixia finally finished adjusting her clothes. She then asked Lin Fan, "What? You've even practiced Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' ninjutsu?"

Lin Fan poured some stream water on the back of his hand and washed it. He looked up and stared directly at her. "Dr. Xu, now that things have come to this, I'm too lazy to pretend to be a gentleman."

He pulled the leaf out of his nostril; his nose had stopped bleeding. He casually tossed the leaf into the woods.

"If Su Qingxue weren't pregnant, just based on that smooth combo of loosening buttons, faking a fall, and pressing against your chest in the woods just now, I would have taken you right there and then."

Xu Zhixia blinked but didn't respond.

"But the core issue is that Su Qingxue is pregnant."

"so what?"

"Does Young Master Lin intend to remain chaste for her sake?"

"No, the key is that she can't be stimulated right now." Lin Fan squatted down again and retrieved the water bottle that had drifted away. "She just awakened the superpower of conjuring objects out of thin air, so her body is very weak, and the one in her belly is an unknown."

"If I couldn't resist now, I'd have a wild time with you by this stream."

"If she finds out and gets so angry that she miscarries, will my physical enhancements regress? Will Su Qingxue's superpowers be taken back?"

"Will my superpowers continue to grow stronger as my child grows up?"

Lin Fan screwed the bottle cap back on. "These are all unknowns. If we go down here, our combat power will drop, which is equivalent to death."

Xu Zhixia stared at him for a long time.

Lin Fan's words were extremely harsh, devoid of any moral veneer of love and responsibility; every single one of them was about risk control.

But this also demonstrates his extreme clarity of mind.

Xu Zhixia chuckled: "So, you remain chaste not to consider Qingxue's feelings, nor to protect my reputation, but purely because you're afraid your cheat code will fail."

Lin Fan pressed the last empty bottle into the water: "Is there a difference?"

"have."

"This indirectly proves that you have no feelings for Qingxue."

Lin Fan didn't reply; let her think whatever she wanted.

Xu Zhixia took half a step forward.

Lin Fan glanced inside; it was a vacuum. If they came into contact again, who could control themselves? "Stop, keep a safe distance."

Xu Zhixia paused, spreading her hands to indicate that she was harmless: "Fine, Young Master Lin, I won't go over."

She bent down and rummaged in her soaked pockets for a while, then pulled out a metal medicine bottle.

The lid was wrapped with several layers of waterproof tape.

Lin Fan glanced at it and asked, "What the hell?"

Xu Zhixia unscrewed the cap, poured out a small white pill, and handed it over: "It's to cool you down. Take it, or your nose will bleed again later."

Lin Fan didn't answer: "Clarify the ingredients first."

"I already said it's for reducing internal heat." Xu Zhixia handed the pills forward. "After your body was strengthened, your metabolism is far beyond that of ordinary people. Your yang energy is too strong, so your internal heat naturally tends to rise."

"Also, I've been eating barbecue every meal lately, with almost no fruit and vegetable intake, fragmented sleep, and my nerves are constantly on edge."

"I've messed things up again today."

"From a medical perspective, it is perfectly reasonable for a nosebleed to result from a ruptured capillary."

Lin Fan stared at the pill: "Are you sure it's not poisonous?"

Xu Zhixia paused, pulling the medicine back half an inch: "Lin Fan, if I wanted to harm you, I would have a hundred ways to make you die suddenly in your sleep over the past month. Would I have waited until now?"

Lin Fan neither confirmed nor denied it.

Xu Zhixia slightly raised her chin, a hint of mockery in her eyes: "But your paranoid demeanor is quite hurtful."

"I'm a professional doctor prescribing medicine for you, and your first reaction is that I'm going to poison you. These days, it's hard to be a person, and it's even harder to be a good person."

Lin Fan reached out and took the pill, then crushed it between his fingertips.

His retina was completely clear, with no high-risk warnings appearing.

The system's silence means this thing won't kill anyone.

"Aren't heat-clearing and detoxifying medicines usually taken in handfuls? Why are you only taking one?"

Xu Zhixia was so angry that she laughed, and twisted the cap off the medicine bottle.

"Why do you ask so many questions?"

"Is it wrong to be cautious about what you put at the entrance on this wretched island?"

"That's right."

"But you need to find out first whose medicine it is."

"Whose?"

"Yang Ningcong's."

Xu Zhixia stuffed the medicine bottle back into her pocket. "Who is Young Master Yang?"

"The young master of the Yang Group."

"He has to have the mineral content of his water tested, and his vitamins are precisely formulated by a private nutritionist."

"Can the specially supplied medicine he carries be the same as the cheap stuff you can buy for 9.9 yuan with free shipping at a regular pharmacy?"

Lin Fan held the pill in his hand, but still didn't put it in his mouth.

Xu Zhixia watched his hesitant movements, and finally her patience ran out.

"Lin Fan, if you don't want to eat it, give it back to me."

She suddenly reached out and swiftly snatched the pill from his fingertips.

Lin Fan was taken aback.

The next second, Xu Zhixia flicked her wrist.

The white pill traced an arc in the air before falling into the stream with a "plop," instantly disappearing without a trace as the current carried it away.

Lin Fan's eye twitched: "What are you doing?"

"Fine, don't take it then. I'm not selling health supplements. Do you expect me to kneel down and beg you to buy a membership card and a course of treatment?"

Lin Fan stared at the water, somewhat bewildered.

When this woman gets angry, she really throws things around!

Xu Zhixia bent down, picked up her long sleeves, wrung them out a couple of times, and put them on without turning her head, leaving behind the words, "You'll regret this."

"You're just having a nosebleed right now." She pointed to his mouth. "In a few days, the complications caused by the fever will be acute pulpitis and trigeminal neuralgia."

"Think about it, if all your other bodily functions are amplified three times, what if your pain perception is also amplified three times..."

She chuckled softly, "That tingling sensation, only those who have experienced it know."

After listening, Lin Fan felt a dull ache in his back molars, and this crucial question really popped into his mind.

If the pain is amplified three times, then it would be better to just give him a quick death.

As he was pondering this, Xu Zhixia had already picked up an empty bottle and started filling it with water.

"Lin Fan, to be honest, I look down on you now."

Lin Fan snapped out of his daze: "Look down on me?"
