Chapter 215: Chapter 150 The Production Team Has Arrived (Extra Chapter for Votes)

When Wang Ye and the others saw those trees fallen in the forest, their expressions were particularly shocked.

In just a few short days since everyone arrived at the safe house, Jiang Ning and Qi Xingzhou had actually sawed down so many trees!

Enough to build a raft!

Everyone’s eyes sparkled with fiery anticipation.

"Jiang Ning, do you need more hands? I can help," Wang Ye said.

"Yes, yes, yes! I can help too!"

"And me!"

Nong Chun and Jian Tiantian also hastened to offer their assistance.

"Sure," Jiang Ning nodded, "Now we have to move these trees to the beach."

She and Qi Xingzhou hadn’t been just randomly sawing trees; they chose medium-sized ones with roughly the same girth and height, not only for a symmetrical look but also for easy movement.

Jiang Ning and Qi Xingzhou could carry one log between them, while Jian Tiantian, Wang Ye, and Nong Chun collectively lifted another.

With the addition of Wang Ye and the others, the work was completed much more efficiently.

Mu Mingxuan and his group rushed over urgently, just in time to see Jiang Ning and others moving the trees.

They, too, saw the tree branches stripped off on the ground, the felled trees, and the freshly cut stumps.

Yuan Wei exclaimed, "Such a huge amount of wood! Did Jiang Ning saw them all by herself?"

Their emotions were complex; while they were still struggling with hunger, Jiang Ning had already started preparing to escape from the Desolate Island.

Only Huo Miao spoke up unwillingly, "What’s the use of cutting so many trees when you’re facing the sea? What if you fall into the ocean?"

Ling Bo and the others chose to ignore Huo Miao’s comments.

Even Mu Mingxuan did not express any agreement.

The crew and rescue were yet to arrive, and their lives were like refugees on the Desolate Island, meaningless.

If it were up to them, they definitely wouldn’t have the courage to set out to sea with just these woods; however, if Jiang Ning were leading... they would rather gamble by following Jiang Ning than continue to stay on this Desolate Island!

At this point, even if Mu Mingxuan and his group were reluctant inside, they had to admit that Jiang Ning was better than any one of them.

The survival skills she demonstrated over these days were stronger than any of theirs, unmatched by them.

Ling Bo sighed, filled with extreme regret.

If he had known it would come to this, he should not have hung around with them; like Jian Tiantian, he should have cut his losses and followed Jiang Ning...

The few of them stood aside like stakes, particularly conspicuous, making them hard to overlook even if one wanted to.

However, Jiang Ning had long since developed the ability to automatically block things out; carrying logs back and forth, she did not even glance their way out of the corner of her eyes.

Jiang Ning appeared calm and composed, but that didn’t mean Mu Mingxuan and the others could maintain such composure.

After Jiang Ning came over to lift another log, Mu Mingxuan finally could not restrain himself any longer and walked over to Jiang Ning, "Jiang Ning, I want to discuss something with you."

Jiang Ning’s tone was indifferent, "I refuse."

Mu Mingxuan flared up, "I haven’t even spoken yet!"

Jiang Ning paused her work, looking at Mu Mingxuan with a half-smiling gaze, "Other than heading out to sea, what else is there? I wasn’t even aware that you were still alive after yesterday’s incident."

After dragging Mu Mingxuan out of the river yesterday, she and Qi Xingzhou did not administer any first aid.

Mu Mingxuan was indeed tough; although he had fainted in the river, he still survived.

[Sure! Tough indeed!]

[Jiang Jiang! Quickly tell him, tell him that it was you and Qi Xingzhou who pulled him out of the river. Mu Mingxuan got it wrong!]

Jiang Ning’s words made Huo Miao’s heart skip a beat; she hastily examined Mu Mingxuan’s expression, only to see his gaze fixed on Jiang Ning, the look on his face particularly gloomy.

The life on the Desolate Island in this period had no effect on Jiang Ning whatsoever.

She ate well and slept well every day, with a diet rich in both meat and vegetables, providing comprehensive nutrition.

Plus, moving through the forest each day gave her proper exercise, she breathed fresh air, her spirits lifted, and she was full of vigor. Jiang Ning’s complexion even looked better than before they landed on the island!

In contrast, they were starved and malnourished, going hungry two out of three meals a day, with their bodies covered in new wounds on top of old ones. Not only had they slimmed down considerably, but their temperaments had also grown irritable and gloomy. In this state, they naturally weren’t doing well, and the only thing separating them from the Desolate Island refugees was a walking stick and a small broken bowl.

Under Jiang Ning’s clear gaze, Mu Mingxuan felt a hint of awkwardness rise within him.
