Yep, a luxurious yacht. Lin Xue's own luxurious yacht. This' yacht ', which could be classified as a medium-sized ship, was said to be a custom-made birthday present for her by her father last year …
As we didn't want unrelated people to interfere with our rare adventure, we didn't bring a single outsider with us — including the essential crew members of the yacht. Fortunately for Pandora and Little Bubble, such a simple machine wasn't difficult to operate. The two of them took on the roles of captain, helmsman, engineer, and … At the same time, Pandora also took on the role of a super-radar to help us locate the island in the middle of nowhere.
What I want to say is, the way the two of them, who were slightly more than a meter tall, steered the yacht seriously was hilarious, especially when Pandora stood in front and said with a solemn expression, "Full speed ahead!" Then, Little Bubble agreed reluctantly as she stepped on a stool behind the control panel and struggled to reach the messy buttons and joysticks. No matter how you looked at it, it was hilarious …
"Ah … The sea …" It was Shallow Shallow's first time riding on such an advanced gadget. Looking at the view of the sea that was completely different from the one on the beach, she couldn't help but get agitated as she leaned on the railing and threw a tantrum at the waves. I carefully grabbed her collar to prevent this crazy country bumpkin from falling — even though she could totally ignore the danger with her superpower.
"I guess that Liu Zicai is just a rich country bumpkin in your eyes," I pulled Shallow Shallow down from the railing for the fourth time as I sighed at the extravagant machine. "I thought that guy's family was rich, but looking at this yacht of yours — I bet that Liu Zicai will drown himself in shame …"
"Not to that extent," Lin Xue stood beside me in her standard jungle gear, looking like a valiant jungle warrior. "Liu Zicai's family is actually quite powerful, but compared to the super families like the Ding and Lin families, who can shake the entire world with a single move, they are a little lacking. However, in terms of development, their family has a bright future ahead of them. As long as Liu Zicai has the slightest bit of ability, it is possible that the Liu Family will become an influential family in China. Perhaps that is why Uncle Ding agreed to let him pursue Ding Ling — — but looking at Ding Ling's attitude, she is treating Liu Zicai like a toy. That is true, there are rumors about Liu Zicai's character in the outside world. Although Uncle Ding might not be too clear about it, Ding Ling definitely knows a lot about it. That sly girl would never jump into a fire pit by herself."
I was now very interested in the secrets of these large families that Lin Xue mentioned. I was very curious if these large families were really as strict and lifeless as described in the books. When I threw out this question, Lin Xue's expression clearly changed, but I couldn't tell if she was happy or unhappy. How should I put it, there seemed to be … … complicated emotions. "Compared to you, Ding Ling and my childhood was indeed a bit boring," Lin Xue's face didn't have a mischievous expression for the first time.
"Compared to you, Ding Ling and my childhood was indeed a little boring," Lin Xue's face no longer had a cheeky expression for the first time. Instead, there was a smile on her face that I felt was very unfamiliar with. "From a very young age, we had to learn a lot of things that we didn't like, meet people that we didn't like, and constantly be reminded to pay attention to etiquette, words, and many other things. However, after a long time, we got used to it. When people gain something, they will definitely lose something. This isn't unfair to us, and now that I think about it, my childhood wasn't that bad. My parents loved us very much, and even though they were strict, the elders in the family were actually very kind most of the time. Even though we couldn't run around and play like other kids, the elders would always think of ways to arrange entertainment for us under permissible conditions — even though I didn't like it. Hehe, in addition to that, the lifeless family rules that you're thinking of don't exist. There are rules, but our family isn't an old feudal era. Take Ding Ling for example, even though Uncle Ding seemed to have arranged for her to be with Liu Zicai, if she wasn't willing, Liu Zicai wouldn't have stood a chance at all, let alone be forced into a marriage. Furthermore, ever since we came of age, the family has loosened up on us juniors. Before we inherit our family business, we can freely arrange our own lives."
After Lin Xue said all of that in one breath, she seemed to have let out a sigh of relief. She immediately relaxed, and a giggling smile appeared on her face once again. It was as if the noble young lady just now was a hallucination.
"After saying all of that, I feel a lot better." Lin Xue laughed and patted my shoulder twice. "It seems like being a blockhead has its benefits. At least you can listen carefully when I speak, and not be like Ding Ling who interrupts me every three seconds. Is there anything else you want to know? This missy is in a good mood right now, so I'll reluctantly answer you this once! "
I slapped away Lin Xue's hand that was patting my shoulder. Then, I raised a finger and said, "I only have one question: Since your family was so strict when you were young, how did you manage to have such a secret childhood base? Could it be that you and Lin Feng drove a yacht and ran away from home when you were a child? "
I was really curious about this question. According to what Lin Xue said, other than the various gatherings arranged by her family, she and Lin Feng didn't have many opportunities to go out and play when they were young, so this "secret base" in the depths of the ocean was a bit unimaginable … Ahem, actually, no matter what, it was a bit hard to understand that two children's secret base needed to take a yacht to reach. Could it be that Lin Xue this super troublesome aggregate had the ability to cause all kinds of unimaginable events when she was young? So much so that she and her brother could be dragged into a melodramatic story like "Survival on a Deserted Island" at any time when they were locked up at home?
Lin Xue also learned from me and shook her finger in front of my eyes, and said with a proud smile, "This is easy to understand, because the island we are going to, and even the surrounding islands are all private properties of our Lin family. Those grandpas wouldn't care what we do in our own backyard …"
Qian Qian, who was leaning on the railing and looking out at the sea, suddenly froze on the spot. With a plop … she fell backward onto the deck.
"What an evil rich man!"
My heart ached as I helped Shallow Shallow up. As I rubbed her head, I sighed. This kind of super family was really rich. Those so-called world's richest people that the public knew about were basically the working class compared to these super rich people!
Shallow Shallow hugged my arm, her eyes were filled with little stars, and she said with longing, "It's actually a private island, how many three-bedroom and one-living rooms can we build!"
"What an evil rich man!" I rubbed Shallow Shallow's head again, and said with a heartache. At the same time, I comforted the girl in front of me, who had set three-bedroom and one-living rooms as her ultimate goal in life, "Be good, in two days, I will get Little Bubble to build you a faith-grade island, that thing will definitely be bigger than Lin Xue's family island. When the time comes, I will dismantle all the cannons on the ship, and build three-bedroom and one-living rooms for you …"
Lin Xue's smug smile instantly froze. After a moment, she used the same tone as me and let out a long sigh, "Evil rich people …"
Another two hours later, the group of rich people who had been tossed around by boredom finally reached the shore.
An uninhabited island, this was the first impression I had of the island that Lin Xue and Lin Feng told me about, which was the secret base of her and Lin Feng.
The area of this island wasn't small, it had a radius of more than ten kilometers. Most of the island was covered by a lush forest, and the forest was filled with thick layers of fallen leaves and rotten branches. There wasn't a single trace of human activity, which was why I said that this was an uninhabited island.
In reality, there were indeed no humans living on this island. Not only did Lin Xue guarantee that, even Pandora's life radar didn't detect the existence of any humans other than us on the island.
However, Lin Xue told us that there was a huge house in the center of the island.
We decided to camp on the shore for the night. While we were preparing dinner, Lin Xue said to us, "No one knows why there is such an abandoned house on this island. Although this is our family's property, we only obtained this island about twenty years ago. The previous owner of this island was an old noble from a foreign country. He had a deep friendship with my grandfather, and he even gave this island to my grandfather before he died. However, I don't know why my grandfather never sent anyone to investigate this place, and he even forbade the other members of the family from coming close … Stupid blockhead, what are you looking at? I don't believe that you were always obedient when you were young! In any case, I was born smart, so it was a piece of cake for me to trick the two stupid stewards of the family to secretly bring me and my younger brother here to play … "
"In short, my younger brother and I secretly came here when we were young, and we discovered something extraordinary — — that big house on the island!"
"And then?" We were completely attracted by Lin Xue's story, and we all started asking questions. Seeing that she still wanted to keep us in suspense, I immediately used my ultimate move: I hugged Little Bubble, who was curiously staring at the barbecue rack with drool dripping from her mouth, and looked at Lin Xue with a pair of sparkling starry eyes. Little Bubble was very cooperative, and she immediately revealed an extremely curious expression — — Alright, I admit, most of the time, Little Bubble had this expression …
Lin Xue glared at me with disdain, and then said straightforwardly, "That's all!"
"Huh?" We all said in unison. Even Pandora, who had been pretending to be uninterested, couldn't help but lean forward.
"That's right, that's all. How old were my younger brother and I at that time? Of course we were afraid, and the two family members who brought us here were also afraid that something would happen, so they quickly brought us back. Later on, my younger brother and I were even beaten by my grandfather … "Lin Xue said with a tone of unwillingness, as if she was very disappointed that we had to give up halfway through our exploration. Then, she continued to say," However, I secretly heard from the other elders in the family that that house had already been torn down when the island was handed over to my grandfather! "
