The First Ebb

After saying a few words, Lu Zhe slowly removed his hand covering her mouth.

Jiang Yao stood there in a daze, her pupils trembling, and felt like throwing up again. She quickly covered her mouth, and ultimately did not throw up!

Jiang Yao had never seen Lu Zhe treat her like this!

In her eyes, Lu Zhe had always been the kind of good-tempered, carefree boy.

Even if girls bullied him, he would never care about it at all.

But today, she saw another side of Lu Zhe!

For a moment she was puzzled: "Is this still the Lu Zhe I know?"

She felt that she should hate Lu Zhe for being so rude, but in fact, she not only did not feel disgusted at all, but also felt a strange feeling!

"Little Zhe..."

"Hmm."

Her face reddened slightly: "Thank you..."

"You're welcome!" Lu Zhe smiled faintly, and his tone was a little softer than before: "I know it's not realistic to expect you to completely change in a very short time, but you have to learn to adapt, that's the only way to survive! Do you understand?"

Jiang Yao nodded: "I...will try my best!"

Ning Shu stood up and friendly held out her hand: "Welcome Jiang Yao to officially become a member of the Jiaoda Finance Department's survival team!"

Jiang Yao hesitated for a moment, held out her hand, and shook Ning Shu's hand: "Thank you, monitor!"

Then she said to Lin Qianqian and Tang Xiaoguo: "Thank you too!"

Lin Qianqian smiled and said, "The environment is a bit harsh, I hope Madame Life Committee member won't mind!"

Jiang Yao looked around: "Well, it's a little dirty, but it's okay, this is everyone's achievement! Eh..."

At this moment, she lowered her head and felt like something was missing!

"My...my bra is gone?"

"Uh..."

This question was a bit hard to answer. Lu Zhe scratched his head, pointed to the beach: "Oh, it looks like something's over there, I'll go take a look!"

Then he walked away without hesitation!

Seeing that Lu Zhe had left, Ning Shu sighed helplessly!

She handed the bra to Jiang Yao: "It was affecting your breathing, so I took it off for you!"

Jiang Yao took it and looked at it in shock: "How did it get so dirty inside, there's so much mud, I can't wear it anymore!"

Ning Shu smiled helplessly: "I won't hide it from you, the water in these bottles was filtered through it!"

"What? Whose idea was this?!"

In order to avoid unnecessary embarrassment between the boys and girls, Ning Shu gritted her teeth and decided to take the blame for Lu Zhe.

"It was...me!"

Jiang Yao was startled at first: "You, monitor?"

"Yeah..."

She had expected Jiang Yao to explode in anger, but instead she seemed quite calm, and upon further thought, she even seemed a little disappointed: "So it was the monitor who used it? I thought it was that Lu Zhe!"

"Yao Yao, you're not blaming me, are you?"

"How could I? The monitor's method was very good! At first I thought I was useless, I didn't expect fainting me to have contributed to the team too!"

As she spoke, she deliberately stuck out her chest.

Tang Xiaoguo looked at her enviable figure and said sourly, "Hey hey, don't act so coquettish, girls should be more modest! Don't forget there's a boy here too!"

"You mean Little Zhe?"

Jiang Yao looked at Lu Zhe's back in the distance, shrugged casually: "But I can't help it, should I blindfold his eyes?"

Jiang Yao calling Lu Zhe so intimately as "Little Zhe" made Tang Xiaoguo a little unhappy!

"By the way, Guo Er, I heard your foot was bitten by a snake, how is it now?"

Seeing Jiang Yao ask like this, Tang Xiaoguo stretched out her little feet and showed her the wound, and said pitifully: "The snake venom was very toxic, fortunately Little Zhe helped me squeeze out the venom! It's much better now!"

"Ah, he personally squeezed the snake venom for you?" Jiang Yao said in surprise!

Tang Xiaoguo said with ulterior motives: "It was very embarrassing, but there was no other way at that critical moment. If he didn't do that, I might not have survived!"

"I don't know if his future girlfriend will look down on him for this!"

Jiang Yao thought for a while, then smiled faintly: "No way. He did it to save someone. If it was an understanding girlfriend like me, she would not only understand him, but also be proud of him!"

Tang Xiaoguo said angrily: "It sounds like you're already his girlfriend!"

"Hypothetically! But even as his dance partner, I still think his behavior was very manly, right?"

"Well..." Tang Xiaoguo was speechless and frowned. She felt that since being stranded on the deserted island, she had encountered a real crisis!

She compared in her heart: "Compared to Jiang Yao, except for being a little shorter and less busty, my looks are not inferior at all. In terms of cuteness, I'm slightly better. Moreover, I can sing and dance well, my temperament is elegant, there's no reason to lose to this clean freak!

I wonder what that blockhead Lu Zhe is thinking in his mind..."

As for Lu Zhe?

He wasn't thinking anything. He just walked alone to the beach!

Carefully observing the beach and waves!

Soon, he discovered some important information!

The highest point reached by the waves earlier was now no longer reachable as the tide went out!

That is to say, the tide has started to recede now!

"Look, it's receding!"

The girls all looked over at the shout!

At this time, the sun was leaning west, closer and closer to the sea level, and the air was finally becoming a little cooler!

Seagulls and shearwaters began to appear, flying over the coastline and foraging.

"Really!" The girls said excitedly.

Lu Zhe walked back, looked at his watch, and said to the four girls: "Comrades, it's 4:30 p.m. now, which is when the tide starts to go out on this island!"

Lin Qianqian hurriedly took out her notebook and recorded it!

Lu Zhe continued to analyze: "The tide starts to recede at 4:30 p.m. Based on two tides a day, tonight at 10:30 will be the lowest point, then it will rise again. Tomorrow morning around 4-5 a.m. will be the second low tide, and it will rise again around 10 a.m."

Ning Shu gave a thumbs up: "Awesome!"

Tang Xiaoguo happily said: "The tide is going out, so can we go tidepooling for treasures now! Like those Douyin tidepoolers, they always bring back a basketful of seafood!"

Lu Zhe nodded: "We can, but don't get your hopes up too high. Most of the Douyin tidepooling videos are fake. Real tidepooling is not that easy!"

"Who knows, maybe we'll get lucky!" Tang Xiaoguo said excitedly: "If we find an emperor crab, won't we not have to eat that nasty snake anymore?"

"Emperor crab?" Ning Shu asked in surprise.

"What's wrong with that?"

"Guo Er!" Lu Zhe said with a serious face: "I can tell you clearly, the probability of finding an emperor crab on a beach like this is about the same as finding a boxed meal of fish-flavored shredded pork!"

"Why not?"

Lin Qianqian said weakly: "If I'm not mistaken, emperor crabs live in the cold depths of the ocean!"
