The unity displayed by everyone at this moment also made Li Chonglou slightly change his opinion.
"Hold your children tight, don't slip."
"Here, give me your hand, I'll pull you."
"There's a pit ahead, everyone be careful."
Everyone seemed to have forgotten their previous unpleasantness, reminding each other. The atmosphere was harmonious.
This plane was a small passenger jet, and Long Shi had booked the most comfortable one for him, so the number of people wasn't large. Including Li Chonglou, there were only forty-something people.
Under mutual assistance, everyone seemed not to be fleeing for their lives, but on a trip.
Li Chonglou's expression only softened slightly seeing their unity.
Otherwise, he would have really wanted to abandon them and rush to the camp with O'Neal.
What should have taken Li Chonglou only a few minutes took the group a full two hours.
When they saw the simple houses built with grass and wood, their eyes lit up with excitement.
Li Chonglou directly activated his Heavenly Eye Divine Ability to scan the surroundings. After confirming there were no ambushes, he had O'Neal take him to a generator.
Unfortunately, luck was not on his side. After O'Neal fiddled with it for a while, he said regretfully,
"It's not responding again, boss. I'm really not fooling you. This thing doesn't always get through."
Li Chonglou's face darkened, "How long will it take then?"
"Boss, I can't guarantee that either. It can only be activated once every three hours. I can only promise to try every three hours."
There was no other way at this point. Li Chonglou tied him there, then went out of the wooden house to explain the situation to everyone.
"Ah, my child's medicine has run out. I was planning to buy more after returning to the country. What should we do now?"
"Damn it, my three-million-dollar contract is waiting for me to sign back home!"
Upon hearing this news, everyone became restless. Almost everyone had urgent matters to attend to, with Yang Si being the most agitated.
"What are your problems compared to mine! I have to rush back for my老爷子's birthday!"
Li Chonglou watched the furious Yang Si, his eyes narrowing slightly. Just then, Liu Feng walked over again.
"Big brother, we have children here, and everyone's food supplies are not much. If it's convenient for you, could you help us find some ingredients?"
As soon as he said this, everyone suddenly fell silent, their eyes turning to him.
A hint of displeasure flashed in Li Chonglou's eyes. He said coldly, "So you think I should be your nanny?"
Liu Feng's expression changed, and he quickly said, "No, no, big brother, you misunderstood. It's just..."
"Don't say 'just'. You all have hands and feet. Find what you need yourselves. I have no obligation to take care of you."
Li Chonglou finished speaking and led the way into the wooden house. Although he had a benevolent heart, he was not a fool to be exploited. If he agreed to help everyone now, they would come to him for every little thing in the future.
This would be an endless problem.
As everyone watched his retreating back, disappointment filled their eyes. Fortunately, there were still quite a few sensible people among them.
"He's right. Saving our lives is already a great kindness. How can we bother him with basic problems? How about this, let's form a team from now on and divide the work?"
The speaker was a man wearing glasses.
From his demeanor, he looked like a teacher, and in fact, he was a teacher.
His proposal was quickly accepted by everyone, and they began to talk enthusiastically, introducing their identities and professions, and sharing their specialties.
However, a few people did not participate: Liu Feng, Fang Qian, and Yang Si, who had always disdained to associate with the crowd.
At this moment, Yang Si found a woman who claimed to be a nurse. Although the latter initially found him disagreeable, after Yang Si promised to provide various generous rewards upon their return, she agreed to help treat the gunshot wound on his leg.
The two of them sat aside, watching the lively crowd discussing not far away. A disdainful cold smile played on Yang Si's lips.
"You're Jennifer, right? Don't worry, as long as you come back with me, I'll definitely have my father arrange a job for you at the city hospital."
Jennifer was not Chinese. She worked in China because her boyfriend was Chinese, so she attached great importance to the job arrangement in the city hospital that Yang Si mentioned.
"I hope you're not lying to me."
Jennifer said softly as she carefully treated the wound on his thigh.
Little did she know that Yang Si's gaze was already fixed on her neckline with a strange look.
"Don't worry, you should have heard of my father's name. I definitely won't lie to you. Not only that, but I might even be able to arrange a better status for you."
As he said this, Yang Si suddenly revealed a lewd smile and reached out to touch Jennifer's face.
The latter sensed something was wrong and quickly leaned back, "Mr. Yang, what are you doing!"
Yang Si immediately withdrew his hand, saying somewhat awkwardly, "Sorry, you look a bit like my ex-girlfriend."
"Mr. Yang, please respect yourself! I have a boyfriend, and I won't sell myself! If you continue like this, I won't treat you anymore."
Jennifer said seriously. Yang Si quickly agreed. When Jennifer resumed treating his wound, a cold glint suddenly flashed in his eyes.
Hmph, no woman I desire can escape me!
Yang Si thought to himself, then his gaze fell on the woman who had slapped him earlier. While called a woman, her figure and appearance were still within the realm of beauty.
Yang Si touched his face and let out a cold snort.
Meanwhile, inside the wooden house, Li Chonglou had just found a chair to sit down, intending to wait for time to pass. Suddenly, a figure walked in from outside.
It was Fang Qian.
Li Chonglou frowned slightly and said, "Didn't I tell you not to come looking for me again?"
However, Fang Qian acted as if she hadn't heard him and said on her own, "I got my period, and my things are still in the cargo hold of the plane."
As she spoke, her face turned as red as a ripe apple, which was quite cute.
"Are you asking me to get it for you?"
Fang Qian instinctively wanted to nod, but then she remembered what Li Chonglou had said earlier and changed her mind, "If possible, I'd like you to accompany me. After all, by myself..."
Li Chonglou frowned, "How about I let someone else accompany you?"
