Li Chen finally picked up a thick branch from the batch of dry firewood. Then, he took out another knife from his bag and quickly cut the thick branch until it had a flat surface. Afterwhich, he also carved out a hole.

After finishing those steps, he found a relatively thin branch and sharpened the tip. He drilled the two pieces against each other, and they were great, so he put some hay in the hole.

Seeing this, Wang Qi and Zhao Yu understood Li Chen’s actions. It turned out that he wanted to drill wood to start a fire.

“How can you start a fire like this? He must have watched too many survival movies!” Zhao Yu said to Wang Qi.

“Sister Yu, don’t you notice Li Chen has tools but we don’t?”

Wang Qi’s words reminded Zhao Yu that Li Chen had already taken out two knives. Logically, knives were not allowed to be brought onto the plane, so this matter puzzled Zhao Yu.

“How long are you guys going to stay here? I’m going to start a fire soon. Don’t tell me you guys don’t even know how to start a fire,” Li Chen said.

“Hmph, I don’t believe you can light a fire,” Wang Qi said.

To start a fire required drilling a stick onto the flat base. Li Chen had only read about this technique in books, but he had never actually practiced it. Therefore, he brought out the hand speed that he had trained after being single for decades and began to spin the stick.

There was some heat in the groove, followed by a little redness. Yes, this was the spark he wanted. Li Chen carefully poured the spark on the hay and carefully blew it.

The hay in Li Chen’s hand slowly emitted smoke, and the smoke became larger and larger. When Wang Qi and Zhao Yu saw the smoke, they thought that Li Chen had really started a fire.

Wang Qi’s eyes widened even more. She couldn’t believe that Li Chen could start a fire with just a few pieces of wood.

However, there was only smoke in the hay. There was no flame. After the smoke dispersed out, what remained was only a handful of hay. The first trial failed, but he was just a little bit away from success.

As Li Chen put down the hay, the light in Wang Qi’s eyes gradually dimmed. She had just thought that Li Chen looked handsome as he was able to start a fire, but she didn’t expect it to end like this.

Li Chen picked up the two pieces of wood from before and placed them in the hay again. His hands continued to move. He was so tired that he was sweating profusely. As Li Chen worked hard, more sparks gradually appeared.

Smoke also rose from the two pieces of wood. It’s now!

Li Chen carefully poured all the sparks on the dry grass and slowly blew in some air. Smoke rose from the dry grass again. Slowly, the dry grass started to move.

Seeing this, Li Chen quickly placed the hay on the ground and placed the firewood he had picked up on it. The fire was finally lit. With a fire, everything was easy.

Dry grass and firewood were added to the fire. The fire grew larger and larger, and the time was ripe.

Li Chen brought over the fish that had already been cleaned and gutted. He pierced the fish with a slender stick and placed it on the fire to roast.

Wang Qi and Zhao Yu swallowed their saliva when they saw this, but they knew that they had already offended Li Chen. It was already good if Li Chen didn’t chase them away. If not, it was really hard to say where they would stay at this time.

At this moment, Wang Qi pointed at the coconuts on the tree. Zhao Yu understood her intentions, so the two of them came to the tree and began to hug it and shake it.

“Aiyo, why is this tree so difficult to shake? I’m so tired.” Wang Qi wiped her face with her hand.

“Come quickly. We can definitely get it down,” Zhao Yu encouraged Wang Qi.

Finally, the two of them worked together to get a coconut down. However, there was another problem. How could they open it?

The two of them looked at each other and looked at Li Chen. At this moment, he was the only one with a knife.

“Let me borrow your knife.” Zhao Yu stepped forward and said.

“Aren’t you afraid that I’m a bad person? Moreover, I have a knife now. Why aren’t you running away?” Li Chen continued to retort. Since they said that he was a bad person, he would be a bad person until the end.

“Are you going to lend it to me or not? Speak frankly. Don’t play with us here,” Zhao Yu continued.

“With that tone? Forget it. I’ll do a good deed as a bad person. I’ll lend it to you.”

Li Chen opened his backpack and wanted to take out the knife. However, Li Chen was also afraid that if he gave them the knife, they might not return it to him. He could not guarantee that another knife would appear in his backpack tomorrow.

“I’ll lend it to you, but I’m going to be the one using it. What do you want to do with it? I’ll do it for you.”

Wang Qi looked at the coconut, and Li Chen immediately understood. They wanted to open the coconut.

Li Chen quickly opened the coconut and handed it to them. The two of them immediately started to share it.

However, at this moment, the fragrance of the roasted fish had already spread. The fish was done grilling.

“Name your price. We’ll buy your fish.” Zhao Yu thought of a good idea.

“My annual salary is enough, right? My annual salary equates to your salary for several years.” Zhao Yu said this with a hint of smugness. After all, Li Chen was an intern under her.

“Do you all just like to buy things? Besides, I’m the bad guy you’re talking about. Be careful or I’ll poison you.”

Li Chen’s words directly stopped Zhao Yu from continuing. Zhao Yu could not help but start to reflect on what kind of person Li Chen was.

“Tell me, what do you want to do? I’ll do my best to satisfy you,” said Zhao Yu.

“What do I want? You should know, right? Do as you see fit.” Li Chen’s words made it even more difficult for the two of them to continue.

The situation fell into a stalemate. The two of them realized that Li Chen completely did not want to give them fish to eat.

Wang Qi and Zhao Yu could only sit there in a daze and look at the coconut in their hands. Compared to roasted fish, the coconut in their hands was not delicious.

At this moment, Li Chen sized up the two people under the flame. Zhao Yu had short hair and a pure white shirt. Perhaps because it was wet, the redness inside could be vaguely seen.

She was also wearing tight suit pants. Li Chen felt that she definitely had a vest line, and it looked perfect.

“Tell me, what do you want?” Wang Qi asked again and looked at herself.

“Don’t tell me you want to…” As she spoke, Wang Qi lowered her head and did not continue.

“I definitely won’t take money. Money is useless here. I don’t even know when I can go back.”

Li Chen coughed twice and looked at Zhao Yu and Wang Qi.

“You bastard, you’re indeed such a person.”

Zhao Yu was furious.

Li Chen was a little surprised. “Can you guys not think so badly of me? I didn’t say anything.”

“For some things, don’t always think of the worst. For example, me. Did I really do anything wrong?”

When Wang Qi and Zhao Yu heard Li Chen’s words, they were suddenly confused.

“Did you hear them say that I sexually harassed her and took advantage of her? Have you heard my explanation? Can you let me explain before you make a decision?”
