Chapter 9: Talking to the school beauty about future life plans.

After explaining the biggest doubt in her heart, Qin Rushuang looked at the other party seriously.

She needed an answer.

This ties into how she and Anya will get along in the future.

"Well, my classmate Anya might look down on me!" Zhang Liu nodded and acknowledged Qin Rushuang's feelings, then said, "When she was in school, she would often pay me to do errands for her, and then she laughed at me for being greedy for money."

Without speaking, Qin Rushuang gently bit her lip and remained silent.

But in her opinion, spending money to teach her classmates who belong to an equal class to do things for her is already a kind of campus bullying.

"But my colleague Anya tipped me very high. It has almost reached more than 50,000 yuan ($7,000) in the past two years." When Zhang Liu said this, he couldn't help but have a smile on his face. "I have spent the past few years on my sisters tuition fees. All fees depend on this money."

"Do you pay your sisters tuition fees? Where are the elders at home?" Qin Rushuang felt a little disdainful when she saw Zhang Liu laughing after saying that he had a lot of money.

But when she heard the other party say that he wanted to use the money to cover his two sisters tuition fees.

The woman's intuition immediately told her that there might be something hidden behind this.

"My parents died of cancer when I was a freshman in high school. All the family money was spent, and we still owe a lot of foreign debt. I only have two younger sisters left. I relied on the school's help so I could live." Zhang Liu briefly explained his situation to Qin Rushuang.

"I was doing favors for others; my classmate Anya didn't give any money at first. Later, when she found out about my family..." Zhang Liu prepared to continue speaking on Anya's behalf.

But there was a call from the other party behind him.

"I'm full! Zhang Liu, what are you whispering about?"

Anya touched her stomach, stood up from the foam board with a smile on her face, and quickly walked towards them.

Facing this situation, although Qin Rushuang wanted to calm Zhang Liu down, after seeing him walking towards Anya with a smile on his face, she could only silently purse her lips and swallow the other words in her stomach.

It was Anya who gave the money to help Zhang Liu, not her.

For Anya, who is only 1.53 meters tall and petite, no matter how hard she stuffs her stomach, she really can't eat much food.

When Zhang Liu and Qin Rushuang sat down to continue eating lunch, only a small head of coconut meat had been eaten.

Later, Qin Rushuang couldn't eat anymore, and with her and Anya watching, Zhang Liu forcibly killed all the coconut meat.

After eating a simple lunch, Zhang Liu began to chat with the two about his future arrangements that he had been thinking about all morning.

"When I set out to find the cave in the morning, I thought about a lot of things."

"According to the descriptions in the survival videos I watched, the things we need most now are shelter, water, fire, food, and an escape plan."

"The shelter and water issues have been solved at first. I found a cave there that is very suitable for living for now."

"There's a fist-sized puddle next to it. I just emptied out all the water in it. I'll know how quickly it fills up when I go back."

"It's fresh water, but it's a bit bitter. It should be mixed with minerals in the rocks. I'll drink this water tonight just to see if it's suitable for short-term drinking."

"The fire issue is even more embarrassing. I don't know how to carve wood to make a fire. I only know some principles."

"In terms of food... given our proximity to the seashore and the presence of coconuts here, coconut meat will be my priority for carbohydrates. For protein and fat, I will temporarily choose fish from the seashore. I will see if there are other useful things in the forest in the future."

"I don't plan to enter this forest in the short term. There is a high probability of rescue in at least ten days."

"If no rescue comes after ten days, then I feel we need to look at the long-term situation and then develop this forest resource."

"The first thing is to climb to the highest mountain peak there to check if this is an island."

"If it is endless and obviously not an island, then it is probably an undeveloped virgin forest. After we pass through the forest, we can find tourist attractions and the like."

"What if it was really an island?"

"Then the goal is to build a big ship that can sail and make one last effort."

In front of Qin Rushuang and Anya, who had fallen into silence, Zhang Liu listed all his plans for the future in the morning.

"Zhang Liu, how do you know so much?" Anya took the initiative to break the silence between them and asked.

Beside her, Qin Rushuang also had some confusion in her eyes.

To be honest, she thought she was calm enough, and during these two days of rest, she made tentative plans for the future.

But Qin Rushuang's overall plan, in her mind, could not avoid the confusion.

The plan that Zhang Liu spoke of at this moment was an organized list of different solutions.

Comparing the two, they are completely different.

"In order to improve my English ability, I was looking for English versions of my favorite books about wilderness survival for self-translation and learning. Originally, I did this for tests, but I didn't expect it to be useful here," Zhang Liu said with a wry smile.

After hearing this, Anya and Qin Rushuang stopped talking.

They both have private English teachers at home for one-on-one instruction.

They also understand that learning English ultimately depends on self-discipline.

(Hana Chan: Well, I learned English from movies and series before I started studying the language at college🙄🤣🤣🤣😂, and I think that many readers whose first language is not English will agree with me)

Zhang Liu's self-taught and self-disciplined personality made them feel deeply shocked.

Compared to Qin Rushuang's admiration, there was a hint of deep regret in Anya's eyes.

"Then why don't we go there first?" Qin Rushuang turned to look at the sun that had risen to the center of the sky. The scorching rays made the top of her head feel hot.

Zhang Liu and Anya felt this too.

So they both nodded.

Zhang Liu walked in front of them with a coconut in each hand.

Anya and Qin Rushuang were both carrying coconuts, and the three of them slowly walked towards the small cave before.

After walking into the cold place covered in mountain shadows, they couldn't help but let out a sigh.

After all, the air inhaled into the body no longer feels hot but has a slightly cooling taste.

"The pond I mentioned is here..." Walking to the small pond he had seen before, Zhang Liu couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly, showing a smile.

Because he was pleasantly surprised to find that after such a short period, the water in the pond was already full, and it continued to flow from the edge.

Although it is only about the size of a fist, it cannot hold it and keep the water flowing.

There seems to be a lot of water.

After Qin Rushuang saw the small pool of clear liquid, she couldn't help but stick out her tongue and lick her lips slightly.

Unlike Anya, who drank two bottles of water, all she drank for the past two days was coconut water, and although it was sweet and delicious, there was always a sticky feeling in her mouth.

Now Qin Rushuang could vaguely smell the pure water in the air.

"Can I rinse my mouth first?" At this moment, Anya walked to the pond, then turned around and asked the boy she had never asked for advice before.
