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

Zhou Kai had already picked up the rope. He walked up to Yang Ningcong but did not immediately make a move.

"Young Master Yang, I'm sorry."

Yang Ningcong's arms were still stiffly stretched out in front of him, his wrists clasped together.

That defiant stance lasted for almost twenty seconds before it began to collapse.

"Although I'm still quite..." Zhou Kai scratched the back of his head, unable to find the right words.

He wanted to say he couldn't bear to part with it.

After all, the two of them had been squatting in the corner chatting for almost an hour, from international affairs to foreign models, from the Eight Great Hutongs to Las Vegas.

This was the first time in Zhou Kai's life that he had met a wealthy young master worth over ten million.

"But don't be too scared," Zhou Kai said, rephrasing his statement.

"You witnessed Fan's speed and ability firsthand last night."

Zhou Kai patted Yang Ningcong on the back, "I believe Brother Fan can definitely guarantee your personal safety."

He himself felt that his words were somewhat weak.

Yang Ningcong sneered, his lips curling downwards, "Bullshit."

"If Lin Fan is so amazing, why don't you guys go and do it yourselves?"

He pulled his arms back, curled up again, and buried his head between his knees.

"You make it sound so easy for me to go and die while you all watch the show from inside the cave."

Zhou Kai opened his mouth, but choked.

He really couldn't answer.

The answer was too simple; it was useful to Lin Fan but not to Yang Ningcong.

But those words were too harsh; Zhou Kai wasn't thick-skinned enough to say them.

Yang Ningcong lifted his face from between his knees and glanced at Zhou Kai.

"Zhou Kai".

"Um?"

"I used to be someone who could sit down and have tea with people, and my net worth was at least nine figures." Yang Ningcong swallowed. "I didn't expect someone like you... a low-level worker, to be so interesting."

Zhou Kai felt a mix of emotions.

"If you survive this ordeal," Yang Ningcong sniffed, "I'll arrange ten of those foreign models I told you about before for you."

"Ten isn't enough? No, twenty. Anyone over 1.75 meters tall, blond or brown hair, you can choose."

Zhou Kai's lips trembled slightly.

He squatted there without moving, clutching the rope in his hand and rubbing it over and over.

Two seconds later, he gritted his teeth and put the rope around Yang Ningcong's wrist.

"Young Master Yang, bear with it, I'll try to tie a slipknot..."

"What kind of slipknot?" Liu Feifei stepped forward. "What if this rich kid runs away before that monster even gets close?"

"Zhou Kai, listen to me, tie a tight knot, make sure it's secure."

Yang Ningcong remained silent. The knot, whether it was a dead end or a live one, didn't matter anymore; he was doomed no matter what.

"Wait a moment."

Lin Fan's voice came from behind.

Zhou Kai turned around, and the rope had just touched Yang Ningcong's wrist skin, before it even had a chance to wrap around the wrist once.

Lin Fan leaned against the stone wall, his gaze not on Yang Ningcong, but on Xu Zhixia.

"Your plan will work."

"But there's a problem."

"The last time that monster went into the crevice, Yang Ningcong and An'an were both inside."

"Yang Ningcong is unconscious. It didn't even touch Yang Ningcong. It carried An'an away instead."

"Yesterday, perhaps it saw Qingxue and you, which is why it came out of the woods."

No one made a sound from inside the cave.

Both times it was a woman.

"It's more interested in female targets. If we put Yang Ningcong there, that thing might not take the bait. If it doesn't come, we'll have waited all night for nothing and alerted the enemy."

He looked up at Yang Ningcong.

"To be on the safe side, the bait has to be a woman."

As soon as he said that, the air in the cave seemed to be sucked away.

Yang Ningcong was stunned for a second.

Then he sprang up, the rope slipped off his wrist, and he slapped his thigh.

"Yes! I think that makes sense too!"

His previous life-or-death state vanished, and the rich second-generation was dragged off the guillotine, fully revived.

"I knew it! It didn't touch me at all while I was in that crevice all night! Isn't it obvious? It doesn't target men!"

He scrambled over to Zhou Kai's side and put one hand on Zhou Kai's shoulder.

"What are you standing there for?"

Yang Ningcong gestured with his chin toward Liu Feifei.

"Tie her up right now."

Liu Feifei's face grew paler inch by inch.

Lin Fan's words were quite clear: he wanted a woman to act as bait, and the woman in question was definitely her.

She's not one to give up easily; she'll fight for it no matter what.

If he were really tied up below, Lin Fan definitely wouldn't risk his life to save her like he did yesterday when he saved Su Qingxue.

"What...what are you saying?" Liu Feifei screamed, her voice cracking, "Why me?!"

"If it's not you, then is it Qingxue, Xu Zhixia, or this silly girl?"

Yang Ningcong retorted without holding back.

Liu Feifei, panting heavily, turned to look at Zhou Kai.

That was the only lifeline she could grasp at.

Liu Feifei crawled over on all fours and grabbed Zhou Kai's leg tightly.

"Zhou Kai! Please say something for me!"

"I can't go!"

"Your leg isn't fully healed yet, so moving around is really difficult!"

Liu Feifei looked up and said, "I have to stay and take care of you!"

"You need to drink water, eat, and change your medication every day; you can't do without me!"

"If I leave, who will take care of you? What will you do without me?!"

Zhou Kai looked down at Liu Feifei, who was clinging to his leg, his face contorted in a grimace.

He wanted to push the person away.

But Liu Feifei did indeed take care of him during this time. Changing his dressings, feeding him water, even with Lin Fan's physical restraint, she did every single thing that needed to be done.

"Brother Fan..." Zhou Kai turned his head, his throat dry and hoarse.
