Chapter 1558 (1/2)
The island covered by dense vegetation is like an emerald gem embedded in the blue sea. Green trees and snow-white beaches outline a beautiful picture.
These days, Li Qing traveled between the sunken ship and the island. He made a simple boat with the removed planks and retrieved a lot of useful things.
He cut down some trees to build a wooden house and made a bed with the wooden boxes on board, which seemed to have a bit of the flavor of home.
The noon sun was blazing. Li Qing stood under a tall tree and looked at the calm sea with his telescope. He stood for a long time, but got nothing.
Seven or eight meters away from him was a small wooden house built between two big trees. It was rough and crude. However, the fur of wild animals hanging under the eaves and the hay spread in the sun add a bit of a warm breath of life.
Further on, a gurgling brook tinkled. After a small area surrounded by canvas, Xinya was taking a bath. From such a close distance, I could hear her singing.
Li Qing doesn't know what song it is, but it's really nice. When the little girl came here, she quickly adapted to the environment. In her own words, it was heaven compared with the bad days before.
Just after taking a bath, Lin Mengdie sat on the wooden box, stroking her wet hair and staring at Li Qing's back.
After a while, she gently asked, ”it's been half a month. When are you going to stand?”
”Yes, it's been half a month.” Li Qing sighed. ”Still no ship has passed here, as if we have been forgotten by the world.”
”Do you still want the world to remember you? I'd rather it forget me.” Lin Mengdie stretched out her slender jade hand, took the nautical chart beside her, and glanced at it. ”There's no place under our feet on the map. Don't expect it.”
Li Qing had no choice but to smile bitterly: ”or we are the only human beings who have arrived on this island.”
”Give up.” Lin Mengdie threw the nautical chart back again, supported the wooden box under her body with both hands and leaned back slightly. ”You have planted a flag on the mountain. If there is a ship passing by, you will see it.”
”Mengdie.” Li Qing put down his telescope, turned slowly and looked at her very seriously. ”If we can't go back forever, are you really willing to live here all your life?”
”If you're here... I'd love to.” Lin Mengdie's white cheeks flushed with a light crimson. ”If you're afraid of being lonely, let's have some children.”
”Xinya is still young. In two years, when she grows up... If you like it, I won't object...” she gently pursed her mouth, as if she had summoned up great courage and said low.
Li Qing came to her, squatted down slowly and held her soft jade hand: ”Mengdie, I don't reject such days, even a little like it, but...”
”I know, you can't put it down because of Lin Qiuqiu?” Lin Mengdie lowered her head and stared at him. ”I woke up in the middle of the night last night and saw you sitting outside secretly wiping the ring.”
”Yes, I can't let go of Qiuqiu. In addition, there are many people.” Li qinglue smiled bitterly, ”I have a son, Li simu, but I haven't fulfilled my responsibility as a father. I also have a daughter, Xie Zhiyao, and I haven't even met her. I'm unwilling to let me settle here all my life...”
Lin Mengdie stroked his cheek and shook his head. ”If you have no other choice, you'd better accept the reality, although it's a little cruel to you.”
”It's not cruel to me, but it's really cruel to Qiuqiu.” Li Qing hugged the woman in front of him and breathed a sigh of relief. ”You know, no matter how bad the situation is, I'm finally down-to-earth.”
”Oh? What is it?”
”You don't even have a place to run now. You'll never leave me.” Li Qing looked at the beautiful face in front of him and smiled, ”Mengdie, we've been here for many days...”
Lin Mengdie blushed with a smile: ”don't make trouble. The absurd thing like last time can't come again. Xinya will see it...”
Last time, Li Qing took advantage of Xinya's time to pick wild vegetables in the woods and suddenly threw her down on the grass, and then naturally there were all kinds of indescribable
”How about tonight?” Li Qing begged in a consultative tone, ”when Xinya falls asleep...”
”Don't...”
”Please, don't you have to have children for me? We have to take some measures...”
”Asshole!” Lin Mengdie murmured angrily, ”if you really want me to have a baby, every time you do contraception, you are clearly lecherous and want...”
Li Qing had no choice but to smile bitterly. Both of them knew what pregnancy meant on this desert island. Li Qing naturally can't let his beloved woman fall into that dangerous situation, so giving birth to children and so on, in fact, it's just talk, at least it will never be implemented at present.
After a moment of silence, Lin Mengdie twisted her hands together and puffed her pink cheeks: ”tonight...”
When Li Qing saw her promise, she was naturally overjoyed and greedily hugged the soft body.
”Ah!” Xinya suddenly uttered a cry of surprise.
Li Qing trembled with fear. He quickly released Lin Mengdie in his arms, stood up and looked at the canvas barrier not far away: ”Xinya? What's the matter?”
A little white hand stretched out from the canvas, holding a shiny thing between his fingers: ”look, what did I find in the water!”
”Huh?”
Li Qing frowned and was about to walk back slowly. Suddenly there was another cry. The canvas was overwhelmed and a white and tender body fell out.
