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

Su Qingxue's breathing quickened; she was emphasizing the weight of her words.

"Take whatever you want." Lin Fan looked into her eyes. "Go wherever you want. Going back to civilized society, going back to your villa, it's just a matter of a thought."

The cave became quiet, with only the whistling sound of the wind blowing in.

"Perhaps you can take someone with you."

Lin Fan continued his analysis.

"The gray-clad man touched Xu Zhixia's hand, but Xu Zhixia didn't disappear. This means that teleportation requires mental energy to maintain."

Lin Fan walked to the edge of the cave and looked at the bodyguards outside who were carrying the corpse.

"The doctor has the methods to develop this ability. That man in gray hasn't even undergone physical enhancement; he's a half-finished product, but his ability is more developed than yours."

Lin Fan turned around, his back to the outside light.

"With this solution, we can leave."

Su Qingxue sat there, her hand still covering her stomach.

Return to civilized society.

The office on the top floor of the Shengtang Building features a genuine leather sofa and a river view through floor-to-ceiling windows.

These things used to circulate in her mind every day.

She dreamed of going back, but now that image has faded.

She glanced at the Su family below, then saw Zhou Kai squatting at the cave entrance, his vest torn into several tattered pieces, his black hair not completely gone, and his body covered in bloody cuts.

Finally, her gaze settled on Lin Fan.

Lin Fan is going to the PhD student's lab tomorrow to find out how to do this.

Go to the place that created the gray-clad man and the strongman.

These three people almost wiped them all out today.

No one knows how many people like this are in the PhD's lair.

"Lin Fan," Su Qingxue said, her throat dry.

"Um."

"Don't go."

Lin Fan looked at her.

"What you just said is all speculation," Su Qingxue said, lowering her head. "What if you're wrong? What if that doctor sets a trap for you? How will you survive?"

Lin Fan didn't speak; he was observing Su Qingxue's condition.

Su Qingxue bit her lip; she knew she had changed.

Back in her company, she was willing to gamble all her funds on a single project.

In the early days after being stranded on a desert island, she acted like a CEO, throwing checks at people.

Later, in order to survive, she humbled herself and gave herself away.

She has a strong will at heart.

But now, the little movement inside her belly has smoothed out all her sharp edges.

She is afraid.

She was afraid Lin Fan would die in the laboratory.

She was afraid that she would fall into someone else's hands while heavily pregnant.

Fearing that their child would never see the light of day, all their pride, self-esteem, and billions in wealth were suppressed by their will to survive.

"People are selfish." Su Qingxue raised her head, her eyes reddening. "Before, I only cared about my own pleasure. Now, I just want this child to be born safely."

She stood up, walked up to Lin Fan, and grabbed the hem of his clothes with both hands.

"I'm not in a rush to go back," Su Qingxue's voice trembled. "Staying on the island is fine too. As long as you're alive, as long as Zhou Kai and the others are here, we can survive as long as we guard this cave."

Lin Fan looked at Su Qingxue's hand gripping his clothes.

He is a pragmatic person.

Follow the rules, utilize the rules, and finally create your own rules.

This is his way of surviving on this island.

Staying in the cave to survive will only make you meat on someone else's chopping board.

These three people are just a warning.

The so-called boss specifically requested Su Qingxue, so sooner or later he'll send a second or third batch of people.

Being passively attacked will result in total annihilation.

Lin Fan took Su Qingxue's hand down and held it in his own.

"Qingxue," Lin Fan said calmly, "Do you think they'll stop just because we're hiding here?"

Su Qingxue's fingers trembled slightly.

"That boss wants you." Lin Fan squeezed her hand. "Whether you like it or not, you're their target."

"Lin Fan..."

"Giving in won't bring safety," Lin Fan interrupted her. "Only when you hold the knife in your own hand do you have the right to talk about life and death."

Lin Fan released her hand.

He took two steps in front of Su Qingxue and laid out his current predicament one by one.

"The PhD hasn't even figured it out yet, and now a boss has appeared."

He turned around and looked at Su Qingxue.

"And Chen Jian and his orcs, they've all disappeared without a trace these past few months."

Su Qingxue was stunned for a moment. She had been so worried that she had forgotten about Chen Jian and the other orcs.

"And where did those mutated monsters go?" Lin Fan took two steps forward. "They captured so many women before, and now they're trying to capture you. If they're capturing you for the child in your womb, what about all those other women?"

"That woman who stole the potion was covered in needle marks. What was he doing drawing blood from those women?"

Su Qingxue opened her mouth, but couldn't say anything.

"We haven't figured any of this out yet." Lin Fan stopped in front of her. "Are we just going to wait here to die?"

Su Qingxue lowered her head, her hands still protecting her stomach.

"The cave is a sitting duck right now." Lin Fan wanted to find another reason to persuade Su Qingxue. "If I go out, someone will raid our place. You saw it just now; three people turned the place upside down."

Su Qingxue bit her lip.

"So I need to improve the abilities of everyone in the cave," Lin Fan stated clearly. "The professor has a solution; I'll go get it."

"What if..." Su Qingxue began to speak.

"There's no 'if'," Lin Fan interrupted her. "You stay here, Zhou Kai guards the city, and Luo Zhong and the others keep watch on the city wall."

Su Qingxue raised her head, her eyes still red.

"Where are the children?" Her voice trembled. "Don't you care?"

Lin Fan looked at her.

"What about us?" Su Qingxue gripped her clothes tightly. "You don't care about your woman either?"

Upon hearing this, the air in the cave seemed to freeze.

Lin Fan did not answer immediately.

He knew that Su Qingxue was using the child to pressure him.

But he also knew that there were probably no superhumans left on the island. If they were just beastmen, Zhou Kai and his team could handle them. But if they missed this opportunity, they probably wouldn't have another one.

"There's no danger in the cave for now," Lin Fan said calmly. "I suspect that doctor genuinely wants to cooperate."

"Guess?" Su Qingxue's voice rose slightly. "You're betting our lives on guesses?"

"It's not gambling..." Lin Fan tried to explain, but Su Qingxue glared at him.

"The doctor reminded me today, which saved your life and also saved Xu Zhixia's," Lin Fan's tone softened. "If he wanted to make a move, he wouldn't have had to wait."

Su Qingxue remained silent; she knew Lin Fan was telling the truth.

"He asked me to come tomorrow because he wants to talk," Lin Fan continued. "He has needs, and so do I."

Su Qingxue loosened her grip slightly.

"Moreover," Lin Fan glanced at the woods outside the city wall, "all of that boss's men are dead today. Even if he sends more people over, it will take at least a few days."

Su Qingxue stood there, wanting to refute, but unable to find a reason.

Every word Lin Fan said was based on evidence, but she just didn't want him to go.

"Lin Fan, have you ever thought about why it has to be you who goes to see him?"
