As the others cheered, Li Chen quickly ran over to check.

It turned out that it was the iron they had refined in the iron-forging furnace. Li Chen did not expect them to refine so much. They quickly collected the iron pieces.

However, at this moment, Zhang Xue and the others had already found the trail Li Chen and the others had left behind.

“Look, there are really people living in front.”

“I see it. There’s smoke.”

Zhang Xue and the others saw the smoke coming from Li Chen’s camp and concluded that there must be people living there. Hence, they sped up and wanted to quickly come over to check on the situation.

Finally, they arrived near Li Chen’s camp and saw Li Chen and the others who were busy.

“What should we do now? Are we going in?”

“They’re human too. Should we go over there?”

Zhang Xue thought for a moment and finally made up her mind. “Go! Go towards them!”

The few of them quickly ran to Li Chen and the others. Li Chen was very surprised to see them that he quickly picked up his spear.

“Who are you?”

“What are you doing here?”

Li Chen looked at the five long-haired monsters in front of him and quickly put on a defensive posture. He did not know if the five people in front of him were humans or ghosts.

“You’re Li Chen?” Zhang Xue saw that the person in front of her was actually her classmate, Li Chen.

“Oh? You know me?”

“It’s me, I’m Zhang Xue!” As she spoke, Zhang Xue quickly tidied her hair, revealing her face.

When Li Chen saw that the leader in front of him was indeed Zhang Xue, he was very shocked. He did not expect them to still be alive after such a long time.

“I didn’t expect you to still be alive…” Li Chen put away his spear and said to them.

“We didn’t expect that we would survive by hunting and picking wild fruits for so long.”

As Zhang Xue spoke, she was actually a little sad. Perhaps it was because she had not seen anyone else for a long time. Moreover, they were classmates, so she was especially enthusiastic.

“Come in!” Li Chen invited them into the house.

As soon as they entered, the five of them were immediately shocked. They did not expect this place to be built so well by Li Chen. They had spent a long time living in the forest to build a wooden house, but Li Chen and the others was actually living in a stone house.

Seeing the five people Li Chen brought in, the others were also very surprised.

“Li Chen, why did you bring the savages in?”

“Li Chen, what are you doing?”

Everyone was in disbelief. Li Chen quickly explained to them what had happened.

“Everyone, don’t misunderstand. These are my classmates. They’re also trapped on a deserted island. They only found us now.”

At this moment, the few people who had gone to collect iron ore also walked over. They sized up the images of Zhang Xue and the others in front of them and suddenly shouted.

“Aren’t they the savages who chased us the other day?”

Everyone laughed out loud when they heard their words. Zhang Xue quickly apologized to them and told them that she had chased them that day just to ask if they were human.

The misunderstanding was finally resolved. Li Chen and the others quickly entertained Zhang Xue and the others. Everyone took out delicious food. When Zhang Xue and the others saw so much food, they actually wolfed it down.

With the arrival of the night, the lights in Li Chen’s residence lit up. Zhang Xue found it unbelievable. She did not expect Li Chen to have electricity and light on this deserted island.

At night, Li Chen and Zhang Xue started chatting. Li Chen admired Zhang Xue and the others for participating in Deserted Island Survival when they were in university. Moreover, they even won prizes at that time.

At this moment, Zhang Xue felt that even after what she had learned in university, she was still inferior to Li Chen and the others. At this moment, she was deeply jealous. The next day, she asked Li Chen if they could move in with them. Li Chen agreed, so Zhang Xue and the others wanted to return to their original place to move their things.

On the way, someone took the lead and said, “Li Chen’s place is so good, but it’s actually connected to electricity.”

“Looks like that kid is quite something. I wonder when we can use electricity.”

“It’s fine. Didn’t Zhang Xue ask Li Chen? We’ll move over too. This way, we can live a good life.”

“Can you guys shut up!” Zhang Xue said angrily. The others quickly stopped talking and did not continue.

When they arrived at their camp, Zhang Xue and the others began to pack their things. As Zhang Xue packed her things, she said fiercely, “Hmph! Li Chen, your place will be mine sooner or later!”

When the others heard this, they were stunned and thought that they had heard wrongly. They hurriedly asked Zhang Xue again, and Zhang Xue finally revealed her plan.

“Li Chen? Hmph, can he properly build that camp up? Don’t forget that we’re the wilderness survival experts. What can a child like him do? When the time comes, that base will be mine. Watch me!”

Then, they packed their things and moved to Li Chen’s place. Li Chen was very happy that their team had grown stronger again, so he quickly prepared a welcoming banquet for them. After dinner that night, it was time to sleep.

At this moment, Zhang Xue finally knew that her time had come, so she quickly said to Li Chen, “Li Chen, I’ve just arrived and I’m not familiar with the surroundings yet. Why don’t you take me out for a walk?”

Li Chen thought about it and agreed to Zhang Xue’s request. Then, he brought Zhang Xue to the outside of the camp.

“Look, this is our water source. There, that’s our toilet, and that’s our vegetable garden.” Li Chen was introducing carefully, but Zhang Xue was distracted.

Just as Li Chen continued to walk forward, Zhang Xue suddenly hugged Li Chen from behind.

Li Chen was frightened by Zhang Xue’s sudden hug. He quickly pushed her away, but Zhang Xue hugged him even tighter. At this point, Li Chen had no choice but to break free.

“What are you doing? What do you want?” Li Chen asked.

“Look at the surroundings. Why don’t we do it once?” Zhang Xue asked tentatively. In fact, all of this was within her expectations for the upcoming operation.

“No! What are you doing? Are you trying to repay me? I don’t need it!” Li Chen rejected her.

“I really admire you for building such a place. I like you very much. I really like you,” Zhang Xue said as she placed her hand in front of her chest and began to unbutton her clothes.

“Don’t be like this. I don’t need you to do this. If you don’t stop, get out of here quickly!” Li Chen ordered.

“Li Chen, don’t be ungrateful!” Zhang Xue said fiercely and went back. After returning to the house, Zhang Xue deliberately did not button her shirt. Many people also noticed this detail.

Seeing this, Zhang Xue smiled contemptuously.
