The minibus was carrying three men and one woman. They were Alice and Georgina's four best friends, Bonnie, Carmen, Charlotte, and Camil.
Bonnie was a girl of pure Hawaiian descent. She had single eyelids, a flat nose, and a height of only over 160 centimeters. She had an ordinary look but her body was well-proportioned with curves that were very attractive.
Carmen and Bonnie were a couple. They also looked like pure natives. They were not tall but they appeared to be very strong and strong.
Georgina's boyfriend, Charlotte, was a tall Caucasian man wearing a loose T-shirt. He did not look like he had any muscles but his voice was high and he seemed to be very energetic.
Camil, on the other hand, was a white young man wearing a pair of black wide-rimmed glasses. He had a quiet and introverted look. When he saw Alice and Georgina, he high-fived them and stood by the side without saying a word.
After the few young people gathered, Alice introduced Zhang Lisheng to everyone and shouted for Charlotte to drive the minibus that was about to fall apart to bring everyone to the supermarket. They spent all the money they had on buying barbecue, bread, vegetables and fruits for the night's picnic.
After the food was prepared, the minibus drove out of Honolulu City amidst the young people's cheerful singing. Judging from the excited expression of the people in the car, even Alice had long forgotten her original intention of taking revenge on Zhang Lisheng. She was purely immersed in the joy of camping and barbecue with her good friends.
The minibus spent nearly half an hour and finally drove out of the city along the wide and straight road. Carmen suddenly stood up and clapped his hands hard in the aisle as he shouted, "We're out of the city, Charlotte! Why aren't you playing some exciting music? Didn't you say that you've fixed the horn of this broken car?"
"Not only did I fix the horn, I've also increased the volume!" Charlotte, who was holding the steering wheel, slammed one of her hands on the music button on the car's center console. Accompanied by the sudden strong melody, she shook her body and shouted at the top of her lungs, "How is it, Carmen? It's exciting, isn't it?"
"You're indeed my best friend, Charlotte!" Carmen's body trembled as she dashed behind Charlotte with reggae dance steps along with the deafening music. With a loud 'pak', she slapped the driver who had thrown the steering wheel away.
"Enough, you two lunatics!
Charlotte, watch the road in front! " Upon seeing the dangerous action of the two, the girls in the car exclaimed loudly. However, their tone was not really reprimanding.
Their teens and twenties were the age where 'bad boys' were favored by the opposite sex. The characteristics of young people were like the rising sun, so most of the girls at this age would not appreciate the words' well-behaved 'and' honest 'at this time.
The minibus drove all the way to a huge parking lot at the end of the road with ear-piercing music playing under the setting sun.
When the car stopped, Zhang Lisheng, who was dizzy from the noise, looked at the surrounding environment through the window and said, "We're already here, but it seems like we're still quite a distance away from the volcano?"
"The road ends here. We'll have to walk slowly with our two feet for the rest of the journey," Alice said with a smile. "Oh yeah, Mr. Lisheng, if we want to have barbecue camping in the volcanic area, everyone will have to share the luggage.
"Although the Crocodragon stayed in New York, Zhang Lisheng, who was always by Mountoad and Island Dragon's side, was not afraid that Alice would harm him at all. However, such a prank without any explanation gave him a headache.
Even though Crocodragon had stayed in New York, Zhang Lisheng, who was always by Mountoad and Island Dragon's side, was not afraid that Alice would really harm him at all. However, this kind of 'prank' without any prior explanation gave him a headache.
Seeing the six people in the car taking out a simple tent that was as light as a plastic sheet and a metal plate of unknown purpose from the pile of junk that was piled at the back of the car, he could only do the same and stuff the items into his backpack.
Fortunately, Zhang Lisheng got out of the car while panting after leaving Lili's luggage that she packed at the hotel. The canvas mountain backpack that only contained Mountoad had enough space. Even the honeycomb was stuffed into his backpack when it was bulging, Zhang Lisheng got off the car while panting.
Although the parking lot at the end of the road was huge, there were not many cars inside. There were a few people who appeared occasionally, but they were all strong young men.
After carrying his luggage, Zhang Lisheng was about to depart with Alice and the rest. All of a sudden, he saw a long SUV's engine roaring as it rushed into the parking lot. It made a half-turn and braked hard before stopping next to the minibus.
The window of the SUV rolled down. A young man wearing a singlet that revealed his thick arms and silver skull tattoo popped his head out and shouted while chuckling, "Oh, Carmen, Charlot! I didn't expect to see you guys here today!
And my dear beauties, how are you? It's been a long time since I've seen you guys barbecue at the volcano. "
"Annette, my good buddy! Of course, you can live your life however you want since you have a good dad. We're not as free as you are!" Carmen went up to him in surprise and high-fived the young man with the skull tattoo.
"A brand new Ford extended SUV! How much money did you steal from your dad?!" Charlot also ran to the SUV's window and high-fived Annette before saying loudly with a smile.
"This is a four-year old medieval Explorer. I can't afford to buy a new car." Annette shook his head. However, his tone was more like showing off than explaining. "I brought three new friends to the volcano to camp today and I just so happened to bump into you guys. Why don't we camp together?"
"Oh …" Charlotte and Carmen looked at Alice hesitantly. Their gazes forced the girl, who was secretly cursing herself for losing her mind and insisting on bringing Zhang Lisheng to the volcano for a barbecue just to vent her anger, to say loudly with a smile, "Of course, that's great!"
"That's great! In that case, I'll park the car next to you guys." Annette said as he adjusted the car and parked the car before getting down from the car with his three friends, a man and two women.
The two women who walked down from the SUV had blonde hair, red lips, and a hot body. Although they were also wearing outdoor casual clothes and their facial features were not any better than Alice and Georgina's, their postures and actions were much more attractive in the eyes of the men.
This was the mature charm that the years had brought to women. Even though there was only a few years difference between a woman in her twenties who had gone through the vanity fair and a girl in her teens or twenties, they were two completely different concepts.
"This is Ashley, Caroline, and Chelsea. Ashley and Caroline are models who came to Hawaii from Los Angeles for a vacation. Chelsea is their photographer."
Upon hearing Annette introducing the two girls by his side as models, Alice refused to be outdone and pointed at Zhang Lisheng who was standing by the side in boredom. "This is Mr. Zhang Lisheng. He's the boyfriend of Tina Douglin, the daughter of the Douglin Consortium's boss in New York.
I accidentally got to know Tina who came to Honolulu for a vacation a few days ago and we got along well. She went to Kauai these few days and called me yesterday to ask me to pick her up and entertain Zhang Lisheng. "
In the US, the surname 'Douglin' could be said to be famous far and wide. Upon hearing Alice's introduction, Anito and the other three, who were initially ignoring the skinny young man not far away, began to look at Zhang Lisheng differently.
"I often see the name Tina Douglin in fashion magazines. Is she really your girlfriend?" All of a sudden, Ashley, one of the two models, looked at Zhang Lisheng with admiration.
"You can say so." Zhang Lisheng nodded.
"Then I guess your father must be a big shot on Wall Street, right?" This question seemed very unscrupulous but the girl asked in an admiring tone, so it did not sound annoying at all. This was also a kind of talent and art of using language well.
"No, I'm Chinese."
"Oh, the Red Aristocrat! The descendant of the great revolutionaries!" Ashley's eyes became even brighter right away. Anyone who had been in the vanity fair would know what the term Red Aristocrat meant.
"No." Zhang Lisheng shook his head.
"Let's go now, it's getting dark!" Seeing the beauty whom he had spent so much effort to pursue for a few days and finally came to the volcanic barbecue camp to have such an attitude towards Zhang Lisheng, Annette could no longer hold back his irritation and shouted loudly.
Alice, on the other hand, felt that her mood had become cheerful right away. The skinny young man in front of her, who was annoying no matter how she looked at him, suddenly became much more pleasing to the eye.
After the team set off slowly, she asked while walking, "Lisheng, I heard from Tina that you have your own company in New York. What kind of business is it in?"
"Slaughterhouse," Zhang Lisheng blurted out. This answer made Alice choke on her words right away and made the people next to her laugh out loud as well.
"Slaughterhouse? That must be very big and the business must be booming, right? How much money can it earn in a year?" Charlotte chuckled and asked.
Zhang Lisheng, who was already panting a little as he walked on the forest path, wanted to brush it off with a silent smile and no longer answer such a question. However, all of a sudden, a strange 'bo bo …' sound resonated from the forest beside the road. Then, a dim yellow light lit up all of a sudden.
The young man froze and stopped walking. His pupils shrunk and his mind turned quickly for a while before answering honestly, "The slaughterhouse under my name has just opened after completing the first phase of the expansion project a few days ago. It should be able to bring me about 20 to 30 million in income this year. If the expansion is completed next year, I should be able to earn at least 100 million in net profit."
"Oh, at least 100 million in net profit? You're so humorous …" Charlotte, whose attention was attracted by the strange sound and the yellow light in the forest, said with a smile.
"Humorous? No, 'The New LS Slaughterhouse, the real overlord of the entire New York meat market'. You can look it up on the internet. The title of the official website that I remember says so."
This sentence attracted everyone's attention from the forest to Zhang Lisheng again.
"Are you kidding, Lisheng?" Georgina could not help but ask.
"Nope." Zhang Lisheng looked at the volcano that was releasing black smoke that was surrounded by a forest with the help of the last afterglow of the setting sun. "Georgina, do we have to climb to the hillside of the volcano or is it at the foot of the volcano?"
Georgina was in a daze for a while and smiled in relief all of a sudden. "At the foot of the volcano." As the girl was speaking, a few silhouettes dressed as if they were cosplaying in Dungeons and Dragons appeared from the forest all of a sudden.
