Desert Island Girl (Pure Lily) - Chapter 38.2

Mu Xiaoyang nuzzled her head quietly, feeling Mu Mu’s warmth, and thought, “I really love you, my big girl.”

Mu Mu hugged Mu Xiaoyang’s soft body, blinked, and felt a bit confused.

Jiang Ning turned back, saw Mu Xiaoyang and Mu Mu hugging, stomped her foot jealously, and said, “Hey! What are you doing secretly? This young lady wants a hug too!” She pounced on them.

Lin Tingting blushed, ran over, and said, “Then… I want one too!” She spread her arms and hugged Jiang Ning and the others tightly.

Seeing the four hugging in a ball, Yi Yun shook her head, laughed sweetly, and said, “Oh, you guys. I give up. Guess I’ll join the fun too.”

When Yi Yun joined with her curvy body, it put pressure on the other girls.

Mu Mu, surrounded in the middle, looked exasperated and said, “What are you all doing? Get to work already.”

After a brief moment of warmth and sweetness, the girls started working.

They targeted trees slightly thicker than an arm.

They chopped a few times at the base, then kicked hard, and the trunks soon snapped.

They broke off extra branches from the fallen trees, leaving bare trunks. Thus, a piece of raw material for the fence was ready.

The process sounded simple but was tedious.

Every few trees, the girls used a standing cart to haul the wood back to the tent.

Jiang Ning started by directing everyone confidently.

Later, to save time, she scouted ahead for suitable trees and led the others to chop them.

Yi Yun swung her chipped meat cleaver and panted, “Phew… cutting trees is exhausting.”

She stepped back, shouted, and kicked a tree trunk. With a “crack,” the leafy tree fell reluctantly.

Mu Xiaoyang, chopping another tree, felt tired too and said, “Ugh, miscalculated. If I knew it’d be this hard, we should’ve grabbed fire axes from the ship first.”

Lin Tingting, the smallest, had surprising stamina.

Despite climaxing over twenty times and running dry of juices, she still swung her cleaver energetically, her face flushed.

“Are you sisters tired? Why not rest? Mu Mu and I can handle the rest.”

Mu Mu advised, “No, resting makes you more tired. Let’s keep going. We’ve cut plenty already. A few more trees should be enough.”

Seeing Jiang Ning jumping and waving in the distance, Yi Yun shook her head helplessly and said, “I’ll go cut a couple more by the young lady.”

Mu Xiaoyang cautioned, “Okay, be careful, Sister Yun. Don’t go too far out of our sight.”

Yi Yun nodded and said, “Got it, don’t worry.” She carried her knife and walked tiredly toward Jiang Ning.

Jiang Ning saw Yi Yun approaching unsteadily, ran up, and linked arms with her affectionately.

“Sister Yun, Sister Yun! Why’d you come alone? Never mind. Listen, I found a fruit tree up ahead! The fruits are red, apple-sized, but taste soft like a mix of banana and peach. So juicy and sweet. Delicious!”

Yi Yun frowned, a bit angry, and said, “Fruits? What fruits? How dare you eat random forest stuff? What if it’s poisonous? We told you not to wander too far, and you went looking for wild fruits? Mu Xiaoyang risked everything to save your life, and you’re testing if fruits are toxic?”

She scolded Jiang Ning like rapid-fire, then added with concern, “Are you okay? How long since you ate? Feeling sick? Maybe induce vomiting to get it out.”

Jiang Ning waved her hand casually and said, “It’s fine. Would I, this young lady, be dumb enough to eat unknown fruits? I did a skin test first before eating.”

Yi Yun asked, “Skin test?”

Jiang Ning raised her head proudly, pulled Yi Yun forward, and said, “Yeah! I cut the fruit with a knife and pressed the cut side on my skin. After ten minutes, no allergic reaction. That means the fruit’s not poisonous. Look, Sister Yun! That’s the fruit tree!”

Yi Yun muttered, “That’s not a skin test.”

Still, she followed Jiang Ning’s gaze.

A medium-sized green tree came into view, its branches heavy with red fruits like little lanterns, looking very tempting.

Jiang Ning eagerly shook the branches, knocking down several red fruits.

She bent down, picked up a few, ran back to Yi Yun, and handed her one. She said, “Try it, Sister Yun. It’s super sweet. Better than apples. Hehe, I’ll bring some back for Xiaoyang and the others.”

Seeing Yi Yun hesitate, Jiang Ning added, “Don’t worry, Sister Yun. I wouldn’t hurt you even if I hurt myself. My method is scientific. Eat it. If there’s a problem, it’s on me.”

Yi Yun thought, “This young lady’s words are getting sweeter.”

Seeing Jiang Ning pat her chest, Yi Yun blushed, gave her a playful glare, and said, “Fine, I’ll trust you once, sister.”

Unable to resist the tempting red fruit, Yi Yun took it, parted her lips, and bit gently.

With a slight effort, her teeth broke the crisp red skin.

Sweet, fragrant juice burst out instantly.

The white, soft flesh melted in her mouth, giving her lips and tongue a luxurious sensation.

Sweet, fragrant, and soft.

Maybe because she chopped trees too long, Yi Yun felt refreshed.

The fruit tasted amazing.

Her eyes lit up, she let out a long “Mmm,” and ate greedily.

Jiang Ning grinned and said, “Hehe, good, right?”

Seeing Yi Yun eat eagerly, Jiang Ning got hungry too.

She grabbed a fruit, wiped it with her sleeve, and ate greedily.

So, the two stood in the forest, eating four or five red fruits in one go.
