I got my face smashed by a bear.

Ning Shu leaned back, instinctively trying to grab the tree trunk, but it was already out of reach!

Lu Zhe was afraid she would get hurt and rushed to catch her, but suddenly, the small bear blocked his line of sight and came crashing down towards his face!

"Ah..."

"Plop!"

The three of them screamed out at the same time as they fell down!

Ning Shu rubbed her waist: "Ouch...that hurts..."

But a muffled voice came from beneath her butt, "You say...it hurts? I...I should be...the one..."

Ning Shu was startled to realize she had landed right on Lu Zhe's face!

Her face immediately turned as red as a tomato!

She was actually...

She could even feel his breath when he talked, it felt so strange!

She was so frightened that she hurriedly jumped off!

"Lu Zhe, are you okay..."

Lu Zhe rubbed his sore nose: "Forget about me, check on Jiang Yao!"

"Ah...it hurts so much..." came Jiang Yao's voice, sounding like she was about to cry!

Ning Shu suddenly remembered that compared to herself, Jiang Yao had been higher up in the tree. Her fall must have been even more severe!

She quickly asked: "Yao Yao, how are you?"

"My foot...landed on a rock..."

Ning Shu was shocked to see Jiang Yao's ankle badly swollen!

"Oh no..."

Lu Zhe hurried over and gently touched Jiang Yao's ankle.

"Oww, it hurts to death..."

The system sent an alert: "Sprained ankle ligament!"

In layman's terms, she had sprained her ankle!

"You've sprained your ankle, it's quite serious! Fortunately it's not broken bones!"

"Oh my, Yao Yao..." Ning Shu felt guilty and distressed!

Jiang Yao shook her head: "Class monitor, it's really not Lu Zhe's fault, I was the one who told him to climb higher to take a look!"

Ning Shu wanted to argue but hesitated, then let out a sigh: "Actually...I know..."

Lu Zhe frowned: "You know what?"

"I know you had to look up to move. But looking up, you're bound to see... You're a normal boy after all. I guess it's normal to take an extra peek when you see that kind of scene!"

Jiang Yao nodded: "Yes, it just shows how charming our class monitor is!"

"Yao Yao, can your brain think normally for once!" Ning Shu retorted, then added: "Oh well, it's still my fault for causing your injury..."

"It's nothing..." Jiang Yao said she was fine, but her tightly knitted brows clearly showed she was enduring immense pain!

"Lu Zhe, what should we do about Yao Yao?"

After examining Jiang Yao's ankle, Lu Zhe said: "With this degree of sprain, it'll be hard to heal within a week! And during this period, she has to keep this foot at rest at all times, massaging it with herbal medicine every day!"

"Huh?" Jiang Yao was surprised. "So you mean I can't walk?"

Lu Zhe nodded: "To be blunt, yes."

Ning Shu was still feeling guilty: "I should have worn undershorts... Even if it got seen, I should have prioritized our safety first..."

Lu Zhe nodded: "The fact that you've realized this means you still have room for improvement!"

Feeling helpless, Ning Shu asked: "Lu Zhe, think of something..."

After pondering for a bit, Lu Zhe said: "Yao Yao can't move long distances now. There's still Xiaoguo over there who also can't walk far! So now we have to make a choice - either carry Yao Yao back to camp, or bring Xiaoguo and Qianqian over here!"

Without thinking twice, Ning Shu said: "The campsite is on that side, so is the bonfire. Of course we bring Yao Yao back!"

Jiang Yao asked: "What about all these coconuts then?"

Ning Shu was taken aback: "Oh right, even if we carry 4 or 5 at a time, we'd still need to make many trips!"

In Lu Zhe's mind, Jiang Yao probably weighed around 90 pounds. Xiaoguo wasn't even 80 pounds!

So it was more efficient to move Xiaoguo over instead.

Jiang Yao shrugged her shoulders: "That little frisky pony would probably complain again. Or else, just help me back to the campsite. We can slowly transport the coconuts, it's not like anyone is going to steal them on this deserted island!"

"Little frisky pony?" Ning Shu had a strange focus: "Yao Yao what vocabulary is this?"

"That's not the point!"

Lu Zhe stood up and surveyed their surroundings. He said: "Haven't you guys noticed, there are more variety of plants here compared to the campsite, and more rocks too!"

Ning Shu took a closer look as well, discovering many plants she hadn't seen at their campsite. She nodded: "You're right, now that you mentioned it!"

"More plants means potentially more food sources here than over there! And more rocks make it easier to set up rescue signals!"

Jiang Yao nodded: "I see..." before crying out in pain again, "Oww that hurts!"

Very solemnly, Lu Zhe arranged: "Class monitor, you stay here and take care of Jiang Yao, while collecting some firewood and rocks! I'll head back to get Qianqian and Xiaoguo, and bring the campfire over at the same time!"

Ning Shu gave an "OK" gesture!

After getting Ning Shu and Jiang Yao settled, Lu Zhe headed back alone.

Travelling alone, he made it back to the campsite in less than 10 minutes.

Seeing Lu Zhe return alone, both Lin Qianqian and Tang Xiaoguo were very surprised.

Tang Xiaoguo exclaimed: "Lu Zhe, did you lose the class monitor and Yao Yao?!"

Lin Qianqian frowned: "Xiaoguo, don't say such unlucky things!"

Tang Xiaoguo immediately covered her mouth.

In a deep voice, Lu Zhe said: "Yao Yao is injured and can't move far. I figured instead of carrying her back, it'd be better to bring you guys over, and shift the campsite at the same time."

Hearing Jiang Yao was injured, Lin Qianqian sounded concerned as she asked: "Is it serious?"

Lu Zhe shook his head: "Not too serious, but she can't move for now."

Tang Xiaoguo stuck out her feet and protested: "Why do we have to move? My feet are still injured, see!"

"Stop exaggerating, the environment there is better than here, and there are coconut trees, more suitable for a camp."

In surprise, Lin Qianqian said: "Coconut trees? There are coconuts?"

Lu Zhe nodded: "We picked over twenty of them!"

"Really? That's great!"

"So when do we set off?"

"Now!"

Lu Zhe wrapped some embers in a piece of tree bark layered with dry grass. With limited oxygen entering through the gaps, the embers wouldn't extinguish, yet wouldn't burn too quickly either, lasting at least half an hour!

He left everything else behind to collect later.

Carrying the fire torch, with Lin Qianqian supporting Tang Xiaoguo, they set off.

But their pace was too slow!

Glancing at the fire torch, Lu Zhe figured that at this rate, the fire would die out before they reached the destination.

Should he carry Tang Xiaoguo?

Walking on sand was unstable to begin with. Carrying a girl, it'd be easy to trip and fall!

How about a piggyback?

Leaning forward, it'd still be hard to keep balance!

There was one other way.

Lu Zhe pictured beachside fathers frolicking with their kids, and in delight, placing the child on the back of their neck!

What would that feel like with this female classmate on his neck instead?

Frankly, Lu Zhe actually didn't mind, rather, it even gave him some small anticipation!

But, he'd likely be seen as a pervert again!
