Chapter 2 Stranded on a Deserted Island

  • Panicking, Rosalie tried her best to climb onto me, hoping to get out of the water by doing so. However, just when she was about to be free of the water, she suddenly went back down. She probably just remembered that her pants had been washed away by the current! “B*stard! You’re truly a b*stard!” she cursed belligerently and slapped me viciously.
  • Meanwhile, I was utterly panicked. Due to the swift currents, the seawater engulfed us in the blink of an eye. I couldn’t breathe, so I could only shove her away and open the door before swimming out. However, Rosalie hugged me and choked me hard around the neck, screaming, “Take me out of here!” Close to passing out from her strangling hold, I dazedly glimpsed Melody dashing out of her room, panic written all over her face. Icy cold seawater once again surged forward, and I abruptly lost consciousness…
  • When I woke up, I found myself lying on a beach, and it was sunset. I groggily rubbed my eyes, only to be greeted by the sight of a yacht’s wreckage on the beach. At this, the word ‘shipwreck’ flashed across my mind. Where are the others? I quickly stood up and looked around, upon which I saw a figure lying a near distance away.
  • Sprinting over, I then discovered that it was Melody. She was lying on the beach with agony etched on her face. Her clothes were clinging to her body due to the seawater, exhibiting her alluring figure. She resembled a beguiling pregnant lady with her stomach bulging slightly, making it clear as day that she’d swallowed a lot of water. Knowing that inhaling too much seawater was bad for the body and suspecting that she was drowning, I hurriedly performed chest and abdominal compressions on her. In no time, she regurgitated copious amounts of water and finally regained consciousness. After dry heaving for a long while, she wiped her mouth. When she noticed that my hands were still on her chest, she suddenly raised her hand and slapped me viciously. “B*stard! You’re unworthy of touching me!”
  • Aggravated, I retorted, “I was trying to save you!”
  • “I don’t need you to save me even if I die! I’m just about to vomit to see your ugly face as soon as I opened my eyes!” Scrambling up, her eyes darted around anxiously. “Where’s my Rosalie?”
  • “We were in a shipwreck, so I have no idea where she is.”
  • “Why aren’t you searching, then? If something happens to her, I’ll skin you alive!” Melody harbored zero gratitude toward me. Instead, she slapped me again.
  • Stifling my chagrin, I set out to search, only to have her calling out to me, “We’re going together! Are you trying to abandon me here alone?” She took a step forward before suddenly clutching her leg in agony. Only now did I realize that she had a bruise on her leg, probably from hitting something earlier. “Carry me on your back!” she then declared in a commanding tone. Long since used to resigning myself to her orders, I crouched and carried her on my back.
  • However, as soon as I stood up, her chest was plastered to my back. Furthermore, her weight had her sliding down my back, so my hands unconsciously went to her bottom to support her weight. Irate, Melody slapped me on the head. “Put me down! Was that deliberate? Damn, you’re simply disgusting! Just carry me in your arms!” Gritting my teeth, I had no choice but to scoop her up into my arms. I could no longer touch her now, but she was still holding a grudge and slapped me again. “You hideous beast, your face is truly revolting!” Carrying her, I walked several hundred meters ahead before I finally ran out of energy and placed her down. My arms are so weary that it feels as though they’re about to fall off!
  • At this, Melody lambasted me for being so useless even as she shivered. All of a sudden, she ordered, “Close your eyes! I want to take off my clothes since I’m about to catch a chill and die in these wet clothes!” I promptly screwed my eyes shut. After taking off her clothes, she abruptly covered my face with her shirt and knotted it behind my head. “With this, you can’t see me anymore! Continue walking. I’ll give you directions, so scoop me up!” she demanded.
  • A tad disgruntled, I growled, “I’m already dead on my feet! Can’t you let me rest first?”
  • “Rest, your *ss! If you don’t find Rosalie, don’t you ever dream of going to college!” All at once, terror struck me upon hearing this threat. I still need their family’s help to pay my tuition for college! Thus, I could only relent and stretch out my hands. Since my sight was encumbered, I seemed to have touched something soft. Melody instantly punched me in the face. “Damn it, why are you simply touching me? Don’t touch my stomach!” So, it was her stomach…
  • I carefully maneuvered my hands into position and scooped her up. In my arms, she sneered, “Ah, it’s such a relief to be free of your repulsive face!” Subsequently, she instructed me to walk forward before turning left. Fortunately, there isn’t anything on the beach, so I don’t need to worry about tripping. I could scent a fragrant aroma wafting up my nostrils from her shirt, her natural smell. Out of the blue, she cried out, “Stop! There’s no way forward anymore!”
  • I quickly stilled. Melody then went to my back and unknotted the shirt over my face, upon which I saw a vast forest before us. There is a way forward. Hence, I asked, “Can’t we continue walking?”
  • After having changed, Melody snarled in disdain, “Who knows whether there are any bugs in there? My skin is supple, so it’ll be damaged if bugs were to crawl all over me!” Her skin is indeed supple. Although she’s rather old, she has maintained her looks well. I even heard that she spends hundreds of thousands on beauty every year! And I? I’ve got to use detergent to shower…
  • “Could it be that this island is deserted? Are we now stranded?” I couldn’t help blurting.
  • “Cut that crap! Someone will definitely come and rescue us! However, I’m parched now. I’m feeling particularly thirsty after swallowing seawater earlier.”
  • “What should we do, then?
  • “You go and search for water!”
  • If it weren’t for the sake of attending college, I truly loathe serving this woman! I headed toward the forest, but just after I’d taken a few steps, a strange sound suddenly drifted out of the shrubs, and something leaped out from within. On closer inspection, I then realized that it was a man’s upper body. It’s our class beau, Wayne Loughlin! He wasn’t wearing a shirt, so his solid muscles were on display. Coupled with his handsome looks, he was very much captivating. I detested him, for he’d always looked down on me. Being good friends with Rosalie, he’d also often teamed up with her to pick on me.
  • “Wayne!” Melody hurriedly went up to support him, her face brimming with tender worry. “Are you okay?” As she asked this, she rubbed her bountiful assets against him.
  • What a b*tch! At the sight of this, envy inundated me. So, a handsome guy receives preferential treatment, huh? What about me, then? I’ve helped her so much earlier, yet she still repaid me with beatings and criticism!
  • Wayne, however, had agony written all over his face. When Melody helped him up, he bellowed in pain. Only then did we realize that he only had half his body left! His legs were gone! Behind the shrubs, a bear was gnawing on him, its mouth dripping with blood as it devoured his flesh!
  • “Ahh!” Melody shrieked in terror. Rushing forward, I yanked her into my arms and brutally clapped a hand over her mouth. She then fell into my embrace. Pinning a look at her, I hissed through gritted teeth, “Shut up, b*tch!”
