Gu Nianzhi didn't expect Qin Zhining to really leave food for her. She was slightly stunned.
She took the bag of roasted snake meat, lowered her head, and sighed slightly in her heart.
This Qin Zhining really didn't treat her too badly. If only he hadn't been involved in the shooting of Xiao Ye …
Qin Zhining watched as Gu Nianzhi returned to the back seat of the car. He took out the cold roasted snake meat from the small bag and began to eat it.
The snake meat was already cold and had a fishy smell. It didn't even smell good, let alone eat it.
However, she sat upright and held a small piece of snake meat in her hand. She ate it seriously and looked very cultured.
It was as if it was a supreme delicacy, and she was sitting in a first-class restaurant. Her demeanor was impeccable.
She was so tolerant and able to restrain herself. She really didn't look like someone who was spoiled.
Qin Zhining raked his hair with his hand and became annoyed. "Stop eating. I'll go catch a few more snakes and cook snake soup in the house over there later."
"Didn't you say there's no electricity over there? How do you cook snake soup? "Gu Nianzhi swallowed a small mouthful of snake meat. When there was no more food in her mouth, she looked up and asked in confusion.
"There's a kitchen in the resort over there. It used to use canned gas, but the gas tank there seems to be empty. Now we can only use the big stove for burning firewood."
Qin Zhining didn't even look at her. He said coldly, "You can go pick up some firewood later."
Gu Nianzhi nodded softly and finished the small bag of snake meat in her hand. She said nonchalantly, "Do you have water? I'm thirsty. "
Qin Zhining took out a bottle of mineral water from the car and handed it over calmly. "Drink it sparingly. There are only two bottles left."
Gu Nianzhi took it and said softly, "Thank you."
In the end, she unscrewed the cap and drank half the bottle in one go.
Qin Zhining was dumbfounded. He pointed at her, but when the words were on the tip of his tongue, he changed the topic. "… You go pick the firewood. I'll go catch the snakes."
Gu Nianzhi's eyes curved as she put the mineral water back where it was. "Okay."
She was suddenly very obedient.
Qin Zhining wasn't used to it. Goosebumps broke out all over his body, and his scalp went numb.
He looked at Gu Nianzhi suspiciously, then turned around to continue catching snakes in the forest.
Gu Nianzhi slowly got out of the car and smiled as she looked at Qin Zhining's back.
She did not dare to go into the woods, so she could only pick up some dry branches from the bushes around the house.
Fortunately, there were a lot of shrubs and branches around. Not long after, she picked up a small bundle and dragged it into the kitchen of the holiday house.
He looked around the kitchen more carefully than he had the day before.
The area of the kitchen was not small, it was at least 20 square meters.
There were two stoves on the north wall. One of them was for burning gas. They had checked yesterday and there was no more gas in the gas tank.
But just to be on the safe side, she dragged the canister out and threw it far into the backyard.
The other stove could be used to burn firewood.
Gu Nianzhi gathered some firewood and stuffed it into the hearth.
Gu Nianzhi was standing at the kitchen door waiting for him when Qin Zhining returned with a few "tree ornaments" that had been washed and skinned.
She looked away, not daring to look at Qin Zhining, who was carrying the "tree ornaments". She said softly, "I've picked up the firewood."
Qin Zhining's expression was solemn. He took out a lighter from his pocket and threw it to Gu Nianzhi. "Start a fire and boil water to make snake soup."
He found a chopping board and knife and began to chop the long snake into inch-long pieces.
Gu Nianzhi blinked her big watery eyes and pointed her slender fingers in her direction. She smiled and said, "You want me to do it?"
"If you don't do it, should I?" Qin Zhining slashed the chopping board with a bang and a long snake was split in half. "You're a woman. Shouldn't you cook?"
Women should cook?
This straight man …
Gu Nianzhi laughed coldly behind Qin Zhining's back, and her voice became even softer. "… Okay, then I'll do it."
She tilted her head and watched Qin Zhining chop a few snakes into small pieces and pile them up on the chopping board.
Then he waved his hand. "Alright, you can go out. I'll make snake soup."
Gu Nianzhi was no stranger to surviving in the wild. It wasn't a problem for her to start a fire with Qin Zhining's lighter.
She threw the firewood into the stove. After a while, a red flame emerged from the stove. She narrowed her eyes and curled her lips.
He wanted to eat what she cooked?
Let's see if he had the luck …
Qin Zhining nodded in satisfaction when he saw Gu Nianzhi obediently start a fire to boil water. He washed his hands in the sink next to him and said, "Okay, I'll continue to repair the battery. Hurry up!"
They hadn't had breakfast yet.
There weren't many things to eat on this lousy island. The only things that were available were what snakes liked to eat.
For example, snake berries, bird eggs, and all kinds of mice and groundhogs. They were either hard to find or not delicious. After thinking about it, only those snakes that were "more valuable than gold" could be eaten.
Qin Zhining's mood lightened for no reason.
He almost hummed a little tune as he walked out of the kitchen of the resort. He went to his car, lifted the hood, and continued to check the battery.
The battery was really out of power. He just wanted to use some way to stimulate the last bit of power left, just enough to start the engine.
There was still a full tank of gas in the car. As long as the car was started, the charging device would work.
As long as the charging device worked, plugging in the phone to charge it and going home would be a matter of minutes.
Qin Zhining's mood became even better.
He focused all of his attention on the intensive maintenance.
It seemed that he had only bent down to check for less than five minutes when he suddenly smelled something burning.
His heart skipped a beat. He immediately turned around and saw thick black smoke rising from the direction of the holiday house!
In the green forest, under the bright blue sky, and among the white clouds, a few wisps of black smoke were too eye-catching.
There was even an open fire coming from the direction of the holiday house!
Oh no!
The holiday house was on fire!
Gu Nianzhi would be fine, right?!
Qin Zhining's heart sank. He threw away the toolbox in his hand with a plop and ran towards the holiday house like he was flying.
He crossed the stream in front of the house and jumped up the steps. Without another word, he rushed into the holiday house.
"Nianzhi! Nianzhi! Gu Nianzhi! "
Sure enough, the fire had come from the kitchen.
Qin Zhining shouted as he rushed into the raging fire in the kitchen.
There was fire everywhere in the house, and no one could be seen.
Had she been burned to death?!
Qin Zhining felt nervous.
"Nianzhi?! Where are you?! Make a sound! Nianzhi! Nianzhi! "Qin Zhining finally couldn't hold it in anymore and shouted anxiously.
His mission was to bring her home. If he let her die here, his mission would fail.
As a soldier, was there anything sadder than failing a mission?!
It was all his fault. Why did he let her cook alone?
Qin Zhining's eyes were red from the thick smoke, and he shed a lot of tears, but he still insisted on searching around the kitchen.
The fire raged on, and even the houses next to it were set ablaze.
The temperature around them rose rapidly.
Gu Nianzhi stood in a safe place outside the door, holding a wooden stick cut from a tree branch upside down as she watched the scene quietly.
She hadn't expected this "kidnapper" to risk his life to save her.
She had planned to wait for the "kidnapper" to poke his head out of the door to check on the fire, and then knock him in with the stick …
However, Qin Zhining's movements were too fast. He rushed into the burning kitchen without hesitation.
He didn't even give her a chance to "knock" him in with the stick.
Gu Nianzhi looked at the wooden stick in her hand and was a little worried.
If the other party was a real bad person, he wouldn't feel any psychological pressure if she died.
However, the other party really didn't seem like a heinous bad person.
Xiao Ye's tragic state kept replaying in her mind, as well as the four despicable kidnappers. However, this person's appearance wasn't among the four kidnappers, so she couldn't even increase her hatred.
Gu Nianzhi hesitated.
If she didn't say a word, would this "kidnapper" be burned to death in this house?
The fire had already burned the man's arm, and the smell of burnt flesh came from the fire.
However, Qin Zhining was still rummaging through the kitchen. He didn't even let go of the cupboards that Gu Nianzhi had pushed to the ground. He risked being burned by the fire and shouted her name. It was as if he wouldn't come out until he found her.
Gu Nianzhi watched silently for a while. In the end, she wasn't cruel enough. She quietly threw the wooden stick cut from the tree branch down the slope of the kitchen door. She walked to the kitchen door and called out weakly, "… I'm here …"
Qin Zhining turned around abruptly and saw the girl on the other side of the fire through the raging fire.
She was like a fire rose that had walked out of the fire. She was both hot and seductive.
His eyes burned, and he ran up the stove. Then, he kicked with both feet and jumped over the flames with a whoosh. He pounced on Gu Nianzhi, who was standing outside the house, and protected her in his arms. He rolled backwards and rolled down the narrow slope of the door.
Behind him, the flames burned even bigger, and the entire holiday cottage was on fire.
There was no wind on the island, and the thick black smoke rose into the sky. It was exceptionally eye-catching among the blue sky, white clouds, and blue sea.
"Are you okay?" Qin Zhining patted the dust off Gu Nianzhi's body. He saw that her hair was messy, but her face was still clean.
He then pulled up Gu Nianzhi's sleeve to see if her arm was burned.
Gu Nianzhi felt very awkward being held in his arms. She quickly pushed his hand away and struggled to stand up. She shouted, "Molestation, molestation! You really have evil intentions towards me! And you said I sexually harassed you! Hmph! You're twisting the truth! A thief crying thief! "
Qin Zhining's face darkened.
He hadn't known that Gu Nianzhi was so vengeful when she was young!
He didn't know who she had learned it from …
Qin Zhining stood up and said in a low, muffled voice, "Who molested you? It was an emergency just now. If I hadn't hugged you, you would have been burned to death! "
Gu Nianzhi patted the dust off her body and pursed her lips. "I was fine outside the door, but you had to hug me and take advantage of me. How dare you say that I had evil intentions? Hmph! "
A normal girl would probably be so scared that she wouldn't be able to speak in such a situation. She would only burrow into someone's arms.
She, on the other hand, didn't forget to retaliate against him for saying that she was "sexually harassed".
Qin Zhining was both angry and amused. He moved closer to Gu Nianzhi and looked at her face carefully. "Do you really want me to molest you that much? Sure, come on, I'm not afraid of you! "As he spoke, he reached out to hook Gu Nianzhi's chin.
Gu Nianzhi quickly jumped away. She was really nervous, and her voice changed. "… You, you, you … Don't do anything rash! If you dare to do anything rash, Major General Huo will take your life. I'm telling you! "
"Major General Huo? Who's Major General Huo? "Qin Zhining took another step forward with a smile, deliberately pretending to be a spoiled brat.
Gu Nianzhi became bolder at the mention of Huo Shaoheng.
She held the Swiss army knife in her hand. When Qin Zhining was about to reach her, she suddenly waved her hand.
Qin Zhining only saw a flash of silver light in front of his eyes. He subconsciously felt that something was wrong and quickly took two steps back. However, his arm had already been cut open by the knife in her hand.
The flesh that had been burned by the fire just now was torn open again. The burning pain was not ordinary.
"You actually have a knife?!" Qin Zhining was extremely surprised.
Gu Nianzhi saw Qin Zhining's bloody, black and red arm and felt a little sorry for him. However, he was a strong man. If he really wanted to fight her head-on, she wouldn't be able to take it.
She could only pretend to be crazy and joke around with him, hoping that he wouldn't "go berserk"..
Gu Nianzhi held the small Swiss army knife in her hand. "No matter how small a mosquito is, it's still meat. The Swiss army knife can still skin you! "
Qin Zhining laughed so hard that he was convulsing. "So it's a Swiss army knife! This thing can also hurt people? You'd better save it for peeling apples! "
No wonder his colleagues hadn't taken it away. In their eyes, this Swiss army knife wasn't even a knife!
He turned around to look back at the fire in the kitchen, when he caught a glimpse of something not far away from him.
Qin Zhining's expression darkened and he strode over.
It was a wooden stick cut from a tree branch.
Qin Zhining slowly bent down and picked up the wooden stick from the stream. He slowly turned around and looked at Gu Nianzhi. He asked coldly, "… What is this?"
Gu Nianzhi groaned in her heart, but on the surface, she pursed her lips and put her hands behind her back. She raised her chin slightly and said arrogantly, "How low is your IQ? You don't even recognize a tree branch? Which country are you from? You're such a disgrace to your country! "
"Of course I know it's a tree branch!" Qin Zhining was so angry that he was about to smoke. He strode back and raised the wooden stick cut from the tree branch high. "I thought you were almost burned to death and risked my life to save you! Is this how you repay me?! "
Qin Zhining's other hand suddenly reached out and grabbed Gu Nianzhi's throat. He squeezed out the words from between his teeth, "… Did you set this fire?!"
Gu Nianzhi denied it without batting an eyelid. "Of course not! It was just an accident! "
Although she had set it, she wouldn't admit it stupidly.
"Accident?! I asked you to boil water, but you burned the kitchen. Was that an accident?! "Qin Zhining wouldn't believe that someone wouldn't even know how to boil water.
Although Gu Nianzhi knew how to boil water, it wasn't the first time she had burned the kitchen when she was asked to cook.
So her counterattack was very forceful. "It was an accident. So what? I've never seen a cook burn the kitchen! "
"I cooked once at Major General Huo's house. Not only did I burn his kitchen, but I also caused the camp to be on full alert! Even the fire trucks and the special operations team were mobilized. What's the point of this?! "
Gu Nianzhi rolled her eyes at the kitchen, which was still burning.
Qin Zhining found it unbelievable, but judging from what Gu Nianzhi said, it didn't seem like she had made it up on the spot. According to their intelligence, it seemed that there had indeed been such an accident at Huo Shaoheng's official residence.
His hand quietly loosened, but he still said fiercely, "Aren't you very smart?! Why can't you cook?! "
"So what if I can't cook?! Did I eat your rice?! " Gu Nianzhi flew into a rage out of humiliation. When she saw that Qin Zhining had let go, she immediately went overboard and stepped on Qin Zhining's foot. "I'm so lucky! I don't have to cook myself! I'll hang you if you don't agree! "
Gu Nianzhi was wearing the kind of casual soft-soled shoes she wore in the house, but her foot was very accurate. She stepped hard on Qin Zhining's little toe. The pain made his nose sting, and he almost cried.
Qin Zhining hugged his foot and jumped up. "Don't go too far, I'm telling you! Don't think I won't dare to hit you! "
Gu Nianzhi now understood that Qin Zhining really didn't dare to do anything to her, so she couldn't help but become even more arrogant.
Without Huo Shaoheng, she was a little devil. If others were arrogant, she could be even more arrogant than them.
She simply picked up the wooden stick she had just thrown away and swung it at Qin Zhining. She cried as she hit him, "I told you to kidnap me! I told you to shoot me! I told you to strangle me! Try touching another strand of my hair! I'll skin you alive! "
With Qin Zhining's ability, it was easy for him to snatch the weapon from Gu Nianzhi's hand. However, when he saw that she was waving the stick with tears all over her face, and that she was even more upset than he was, the one who had been beaten up, his heart softened. He had no choice but to cover his head and run away, not daring to fight back.
Just as one of them was running away and the other was fighting, a fishing boat cruising on the coastline not far away saw the black smoke and immediately drove over.
A few black men with carbine guns and ammunition clips on their backs got off the fishing boat and ran towards the black smoke.
Qin Zhining had just turned around to protect his head when he saw these black men.
His expression changed abruptly. He suddenly waved his hand and snatched the wooden stick from Gu Nianzhi's hand. He covered her mouth with his other hand and pulled her into his arms to hide in the bushes.
Gu Nianzhi was about to struggle with all her might when Qin Zhining whispered in her ear, "Don't move. The pirates are coming. Let's steal their ship and leave."
