Half a minute later, Lu Zhe handed Ning Shu a bottle of warm water: "Use this to wash!"
"What is this?"
"Don't ask, just say it's sterile water!"
"Lu Zhe, you..."
"There's no other way now, this is the only choice. Continue to feel uncomfortable, or make positive coping efforts, you choose!"
After saying that, Lu Zhe put the bottle there, then walked away.
Ning Shu looked at the bottle bitterly, muttering to herself in a crying voice: "Dear God, just kill me!"
Gritting her teeth, she started rinsing!
The unbearable itchy feeling was finally relieved, but in her heart, it was messy beyond measure.
"Are you done?"
"Yeah!"
"Then let's go!"
She didn't move her feet!
Seeing that she didn't follow, Lu Zhe looked back and said, "What's wrong?"
"Date me!"
"Huh?"
Ning Shu sniffed and said with some yearning: "Just...just date for one day, is that still not okay?!"
"What?"
"Date for one day, break up tomorrow!"
Lu Zhe realized that although Ning Shu seemed casual on the surface, she was actually a very traditional girl at heart.
She cared a lot about going beyond the boundaries of friendship with a boy, unless he was her boyfriend.
If he still refused now, she might suffer for a long time!
Anyway, just one day and then break up, so he might as well play house with her!
Thinking of this, Lu Zhe nodded: "Okay!"
Then he reached out his hand: "We can go together now, right, my school belle class monitor?"
Ning Shu pursed her lips and nodded vigorously twice, sniffing as she walked forward and put her hand in Lu Zhe's.
The island was not big. Although the central area was a bit steep, it wasn't very high. The two climbed up in half an hour!
Looking around, there really was no higher place than this!
The 200-meter mountain ridge on the high ground, with a big banyan tree growing at one end!
Lu Zhe took out a pen and notebook and started surveying and recording this small island!
He estimated that this small island was only about twenty football fields in size, surrounded by the sea on all sides!
The middle part was high terrain, dense forest, and beaches around the coastline on all sides.
This disappointed him a little!
At this moment Ning Shu pointed to the west coast: "Look, there are so many coconut trees on the other side of our island!"
Lu Zhe analyzed: "The currents flow from north to south. They would have washed coconuts from the island across to this side, passing by the west of our island, and then took root and grew into coconut trees there!"
"I see! Let's go over there later and pick some to take back. We'll have fresh water tomorrow!"
But what about fresh water for later days?
The fresh water resources on this small island were severely deficient!
So deficient that it was not enough to meet the daily needs of the five people.
What if...
they switched to another island??
Lu Zhe nodded. He began observing the island across from them!
The two islands were very far apart. Faintly visible was a volcano, with a green peak, apparently it hadn't erupted in a long time!
The area of the island was probably very large, at least much larger than the one they were on now, because even from the top of the mountain, they couldn't see the bottom part of the island!
At this moment, the sun was shining brightly on the ground, and the sultry feeling came over them again!
To the northeast, a wisp of blue smoke rose slowly above the beach!
That was where the campsite was!
"Let's take a break and go back later," Lu Zhe said.
Ning Shu nodded: "Okay!"
The two leaned together under the banyan tree!
Looking at the nearby beach, the distant waves, the small island beyond the sea level, both were lost in thought!
"Lu Zhe, what if the rescue team never finds us, what should we do?"
Lu Zhe thought about it: "Survive! I believe a fishing boat will pass by here eventually!"
"Will it take a long time?"
Lu Zhe pondered for a while and shook his head: "Don't know!"
Ning Shu sighed, looked at the ocean for a while longer and said: "Let's give this island a name!"
Lu Zhe's mind moved: "That's a great idea!"
Ning Shu thought about it: "Because the five of us were stranded here together, how about calling it Five Human Island?"
Lu Zhe shook his head: "It sounds like mooncakes, Egg Yolk Lotus Seed Island or Rose Bean Paste Island would be better names than Five Nuts."
"Pfft!" Ning Shu couldn't help laughing again and punched him lightly: "Be serious!"
"Well, it's quite serious..."
Ning Shu thought for a while: "But Five Nuts is kind of like a mooncake! Looking at the shape of this island, it's a bit like a goose egg, so let's call it Egg Yolk Island. And the one across from us..."
"Has a volcano, so let's call it Volcano Island!"
"Okay!"
Then she took out two raspberries and handed Lu Zhe one!
Ning Shu said happily: "Come on, let's drink to the day we can one day return to our homeland and back to school together!"
Lu Zhe felt it was a bit childish, but considering they were surviving in the wild, a positive and optimistic heart was also a necessary element for survival, so he decided to play along!
"Come on, we'll never fail a class when we get back!"
"Haha!"
The two clinked their little berries together and then threw them into their mouths!
Then they looked at each other and couldn't help laughing out loud!
Ning Shu laughed and said, "I feel we're so silly!"
"It's you, I'm much more normal!"
"Jerk!" Ning Shu twisted Lu Zhe lightly again!
"Are you a swan? Why do you keep twisting people?"
"You think I twist just anyone!" Ning Shu pursed her lips smugly: "Only people I'm close with I'll twist, people I'm not close with I won't even want to touch!"
"So I should feel quite honored?"
"Of course..."
Unconsciously, the two had moved a little closer, their faces almost touching, and both felt a little shy and awkward!
They both adjusted their sitting postures!
Ning Shu stroked the hair by her ear, looking at the clouds on the horizon, and said faintly:
"Why don't we...kiss?"
......
"What?"
Lu Zhe was a little surprised, thinking he had misheard!
Ning Shu's face turned red as she raised her head: "After all, we were boyfriend and girlfriend for a day! Since we're breaking up soon anyway, why don't we take this chance to do what couples are supposed to do, so it's not a complete waste!"
"That does make some sense, but..."
As soon as she heard "but", Ning Shu immediately put on a stern face, holding up one finger: "Let me tell you, this chance is only once, miss it and it's gone!"
"Then this chance is pretty precious..."
"Stop saying useless things. One sentence! Kiss or not?"
"Kiss, why not kiss!"
"Come on then!"
"Come on!"
The two closed their eyes, leaned in, and their lips touched lightly!
It was like a dragonfly skimming the water, light as could be!
But it gave Lu Zhe a hint of heart-stirring feeling.
At that moment, Lu Zhe also felt Ning Shu's body tremble slightly!
"What's wrong with you?"
"No...nothing. After all it's my first kiss, I'm a little excited..."
"Me too..."
"Quit pretending! I saw you kiss Xiao Xiao and Guo Er!"
"Xiao Xiao was drinking water, Guo Er was purely an accident!"
Hearing Lu Zhe defend himself like this, Ning Shu was not angry at all, on the contrary, she pursed her lips and smiled: "Then you have to admit, those don't count, this one of mine is your true, meaningful first kiss!"
"Fine, exclusively certified by Brother Zhe!"
Ning Shu smiled and said, "You know, Lu Zhe..."
"Hmm?"
"I've read so many romance novels, I just wanted to have a college romance! But I never found the right person. Today..."
She breathed out, with tears brimming in her eyes, but her face overflowing with a warm smile: "Ning Shu has fulfilled her wish!"

s the Eldest Princess, renowned for her cold and aloof detachment, became the most docile of lambs, obeying his every command without question. But when the final move was played on the chessboard, as Gu Chenghan seized everything and ascended on the verge of apotheosis, that very Princess suddenly embraced him from behind, her tone carrying a dependence never heard before: "Wait... you haven't yet... commanded me to love you forever." Gu Chenghan froze abruptly. She... hadn't been hypnotized?! ...

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
