What do you mean, crazy woman

The process of building the raft was even more exhausting than Fang Qi had imagined!

And Liguang... was working incredibly hard!

This crazy woman was practically a logging robot with cheat codes turned on!

And a silent version at that!

When the silver-haired girl's heterochromatic eyes scanned the forest, it was like she had X-ray vision!

She specifically targeted the trees hidden under the dense canopy, ones that wouldn't be noticed by the helicopters above even if they fell.

"Master, this one will work!"

Liguang lowered her voice, secretly pointing a finger at a slightly leaning tree.

The red light in her crimson eye flickered slightly, and a touch of scarlet silently shot out from her fingertip—

"Pfft."

After a soft sound, the tree slowly began to tilt!

And she could always catch it steadily at an unbelievable angle and speed before the trunk hit the ground!

She even managed to keep the rustling of the falling leaves to an absolute minimum.

As for Fang Qi...

He was just crying out that his wife was invincible!

This precision, this control of strength...

If this crazy woman went into civil engineering, she would definitely be a grandmaster-level veteran!

Of course, he wasn't idle either.

Liguang was responsible for cutting down the trees, trimming the branches, and whittling the trunks into the right size and shape. As for him...

He was searching all over the mountains and plains for vines!

They needed to be thick, tough, and long enough!

He swung through the forest like a monkey!

Pushing aside layers of bushes, he pulled out deeply buried vines.

His palms quickly became red and painful from the friction of the rough plant fibers.

His sweat-soaked T-shirt clung to his back.

"Master, rest if you are tired."

Liguang appeared beside him at some point, dragging a freshly processed, smooth tree trunk in her hand.

She tilted her head and looked at him, her amber left eye rippling with heartache, while her crimson eye was still glowing red with excitement!

"Liguang can do it by herself."

"How could I let you do that!"

He wiped away his sweat and threw a large bundle of vines from his arms onto the ground!

"Eloping is a matter for two people, and building a raft must also be the hard work of both!"

"Your master can't just be a freeloader living off a woman!"

He puffed out his chest and held his head high!

Looking like a guy showing off how capable he was!

The silver-haired girl blinked, and the corners of her lips started to curl up uncontrollably—

"Hehe... Master is the most amazing!"

She put down the trunk, leaned closer, and used her slender fingertips to wipe the sweat from Fang Qi's forehead.

Her movements were gentle, but her gaze was so burning hot it felt like it could scorch right through him!

"Then... Master will continue? Liguang will go cut a few more!"

Saying that, she turned and quickly disappeared into the shadows of the trees, her silver hair leaving a faint gleam in the forest.

Fang Qi watched her graceful back and took a breath...

Then he lowered his head and continued to wrestle with the vines!

It was truly exhausting!

But it was also genuinely thrilling!

Right now...

He was with his own yandere wife, right under the noses of a massive fleet of armed helicopters...

Secretly building an escape raft!

This experience was enough for him to brag about for ten lifetimes!

In the future, when he brought up today's experience with Liguang again...

He could brag for a whole day without stopping!

His hands kept moving.

Of course, the construction wasn't entirely smooth sailing.

Several times along the way, the sound of helicopters drew very close!

The white glare of the searchlights swept across the forest canopy like the gaze of the Grim Reaper!

The two of them immediately shrank into the densest bushes!

Liguang would press tightly against him, her arms wrapped around his waist, as her heterochromatic eyes vigilantly observed the sky through the gaps in the canopy.

Fang Qi could feel the tension in her body, and his heart pounded rapidly.

He didn't know if it was out of nervousness... or infatuation.

When the roaring sound faded away, she would say softly:

"They are gone, Master."

Then, she would continue dragging him back to work!

Her fingers were slightly hot from continuously using the laser blade, but her movements remained incredibly steady and precise!

Fang Qi was in charge of lining up the trunks Liguang had processed side by side.

Then, using those stream-soaked, highly resilient vines, he tied and secured them string by string, loop by loop.

Tying knots was a technical job!

He recalled the wilderness survival shows he had watched as a kid and pulled with all his might to tighten them!

Making sure every knot was unbreakable.

His palms quickly developed blisters from the friction, and every time he exerted force, the pain was piercing!

He gritted his teeth and didn't make a sound.

If his crazy woman could eat leaves...

What did a few scraped patches of skin matter for him?

He had to get her out of here as quickly as possible!

...

The sun gradually slanted westward from overhead.

The light in the forest began to turn dim and soft.

By this time, the skeleton of the raft had begun to take shape.

Fang Qi was kneeling on the ground, struggling with the final crossbeam!

A shadow suddenly flickered past his eyes.

"Master, eat first."

Liguang squatted in front of him, and in her hands...

She was actually holding a wild pheasant that had been cleaned and plucked completely bare!

The bird was quite large, obviously something she had conveniently caught while taking a break in the woods!

Fang Qi couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

Having worked hard all day, he was already so hungry his stomach was touching his back!

The way he looked at Liguang right now...

Was like looking at a savior!

Wifey...

I love you!

"When did you..."

"Just now, when Master was tying the third trunk."

Liguang said softly, having already neatly skewered the chicken with a branch. With a flash of red light from her fingertip, she ignited the small campfire she had prepared earlier.

The flames danced, illuminating her side profile, which was slightly smudged with soot but still stunningly beautiful.

The chicken slowly turned over the fire, and the dripping fat made a tantalizing sizzling sound.

Fang Qi watched eagerly.

His stomach let out an embarrassing growl!

Liguang heard it, and the corners of her mouth curled up into a slightly exaggerated curve, but she didn't say anything, just focused more intently on turning the roast chicken.

When the chicken skin was golden and the aroma filled the air, she tore off the plumpest, tenderest leg, blew on it carefully, and handed it to Fang Qi's lips.

"Master, be careful, it's hot."

As soon as Fang Qi took it...

He immediately threw away his image and started gnawing on it with big bites!

This time, he didn't say anything about sharing some with Liguang.

The crazy woman wouldn't agree anyway.

It was better to properly replenish his stamina, and then...

Get her out of here earlier and give her a full recharge!

He ate until his mouth was covered in grease.

And Liguang knelt sitting opposite him, resting her chin on her hands and watching him.

The firelight danced in her heterochromatic eyes.

As she watched, her gaze suddenly locked onto the hand Fang Qi was using to hold the chicken leg.

"Master..."

Her voice suddenly dropped, carrying a slight, subtle tremble.

Fang Qi was taken aback and followed her line of sight—

Oh.

On his palms, which had spent the whole day pulling vines and tying knots, several blisters had burst, revealing the bright red tender flesh beneath.

There were also some unburst ones, bulging and gleaming under the firelight.

It did hurt a bit, but...

"It's nothing, just a minor injury!"

Fang Qi waved his hand carelessly...

And continued to gnaw on his chicken leg!

Delicious!

But Liguang had already gotten up and walked around to him.

She knelt beside him and grabbed his wrist without a word!

"Master, don't move."

She lowered her head, her silver hair falling and covering most of her face.

Fang Qi could only see her tightly pursed lips and those heterochromatic eyes that looked exceptionally focused in the firelight.

"Riiip—"

She tore another small piece of clean fabric from the hem of her beige swimsuit.

Then, dampening it with a little fresh water she had saved earlier, she wiped away the dirt and bloodstains on his hands bit by bit.

Her movements were incredibly gentle!

"Hiss..."

The fabric touching the broken skin made Fang Qi involuntarily gasp in pain.

Liguang's hand immediately paused.

She looked up, a bloody hue flashing in her crimson eyes, and the rims of her eyes actually turned a little red.

Does it hurt a lot? Master...

I am sorry, Liguang should have noticed earlier...

Her voice carried genuine heartache, but the fingers gripping his wrist...

Were trembling slightly!

A kind of... suppressed, excited trembling!

Fang Qi: ?

What is that supposed to mean, you crazy woman?

My hand is ruined like this, what is there to be excited about?

After the silver-haired girl wiped his hand clean, she did not bandage it right away.

She lowered her head, and with her cool, soft red lips...

She gently kissed the largest blister on his palm!

Master worked so hard... for Liguang...

She murmured, her voice trembling with a sickly sweetness!

When she looked up, scarlet flickered in her crimson eyes!

These blisters... are the proof of Master and Liguang working hard together...!

As she spoke, the corners of her mouth uncontrollably curled upwards again!

It pulled into a twisted smile that mixed heartache with sheer ecstasy!

Liguang really... loves it... loves it so much...!

Fang Qi: ...

His back went slightly numb for a second.

But he quickly relaxed again!

Whatever, he was used to it!

This crazy woman had always been like this.

In fact, he even got a little excited himself!

This crazy woman is really cute!

Alright, alright, hurry up and bandage it!

Fang Qi used his fingers, slightly rough from a long day of work, to pinch her tender cheek:

Once it is bandaged, I want to go back to eating my chicken. I am starving to death!

Mhm!

Liguang nodded vigorously. The morbid excitement on her face quickly faded away, reverting to her focused nursing mode.

She nimbly treated the wound and carefully wrapped it with clean strips of cloth...

Finally, she even tied a neat little bow!

All done, Master.

She cradled his hand and tilted her small face up, her eyes dewy and wet:

Does it still hurt?

Fang Qi looked at the bandage on his hand, which was practically a work of art, and then looked at her face that practically screamed praise me.

It does not hurt anymore.

He leaned over and planted a kiss on her cheek:

Thank you, Liguang!

Liguang's cheeks instantly flushed a deep red!

Her eyes curved into happy little crescents!

She nuzzled right into his embrace and muttered softly:

Master must be careful in the future... Liguang's heart will ache...
