Chapter 1686: Power in Hand
The campsite of Zhong Siquan and the others.
Zhong Siquan plans to gather everyone’s supplies, intending to distribute them evenly for each meal every day.
This way, it could extend everyone’s survival time on the island.
As the person with the best family background and the highest status among everyone.
Naturally, no one has any objection to Zhong Siquan’s decision.
Besides, there is a certain logic to Zhong Siquan’s approach!
Thus, Zhong Siquan successfully took control of everyone’s food and fresh water.
Becoming the absolute leader of this team.
This feeling of holding great power.
Zhong Siquan couldn’t enjoy it more.
It was dinner time.
With Wang Yang’s assistance.
Zhong Siquan began distributing food and fresh water to everyone.
Based on the plan to make resources last.
Everyone only got one packet of biscuits and half a bottle of water for dinner.
The group was extremely dissatisfied with this.
After all, they had been struggling on the island all day and were chased by the fierce beasts earlier, almost starving.
Going a whole day without food, eating just one packet of biscuits and drinking half a bottle of water, how could they possibly feel full?
For a moment.
Everyone started to complain to Zhong Siquan.
"Young Master Zhong, our food is quite sufficient. Can’t we distribute more? One packet of biscuits is not enough!"
"Right, Young Master Zhong, everyone has been running around all day and is quite tired. Can’t we eat freely for once?"
"We haven’t eaten for a whole day, and we’re really about to starve. Young Master Zhong, please be kind and add a chicken leg?"
...
However, Zhong Siquan completely disregarded their words.
He glanced at them and said with a cold smile:
"Stop complaining. Having food is already good enough. According to the information brought back by Li Dagang, Lin Mengyao and the others are still in that shabby and damp cave, starving!"
"And you, having biscuits, water, and tents to sleep in, don’t you know how much more fortunate you are compared to them? What are you complaining about?"
"If I hear anyone complaining about the distribution being small again, then go find Lin Mengyao and the others, experience life without food or drink, and nowhere to sleep, then come back and talk to me!"
With these words from Zhong Siquan.
He instantly subdued everyone present.
They pursed their lips and reluctantly walked towards their tents.
After all, they handed over the control of the food to Zhong Siquan.
Thus, they could only follow his orders!
Moreover, hearing about Lin Mengyao’s situation made them feel more balanced.
At least, they had a packet of biscuits and half a bottle of water.
While Lin Mengyao and the others had nothing.
Seeing everyone obediently comply.
Zhong Siquan grinned, exchanged glances with Wang Yang, and the two returned to their tent.
"Young Master Zhong, try this chicken leg!"
As soon as they entered the tent, Wang Yang took out a large chicken leg from his pocket and handed it to Zhong Siquan.
"Oh, you’re quite clever, aren’t you? Not bad. What else do we have to eat?"
Zhong Siquan asked, looking satisfied.
"Plenty!"
Wang Yang grinned and took out a bunch of food from his pocket.
Sausages, bread, Snickers bars, and more.
"Great, we can have a feast tonight. Haha, the feeling of holding power is wonderful. I feel like an emperor now!"
Zhong Siquan said proudly.
"Hehe, on this island, whoever controls the resources is the emperor. Young Master Zhong, you are the emperor now. Whatever you say, they must listen!"
Wang Yang said, brownnosing.
"Well, I like to hear that. Come on, let’s eat together!"
Zhong Siquan said, very satisfied.
"Alright!"
Wang Yang nodded.
Then the two began to eat heartily.
The people outside still didn’t know.
While Zhong Siquan made them save and skimp, he was gorging himself with Wang Yang inside the tent.
After the meal.
Zhong Siquan patted his belly and looked at Wang Yang, smirking:
"What do you think Lin Mengyao and the others are doing now?"
"What else? In that shabby cave with nowhere to lie down, definitely huddled in a corner, breathing chilly wind!"
Wang Yang said, grinning.
"Haha, I bet they regret their decision now. It would have been much better if they stayed with me instead of suffering with that fool Chen Feng. I guess they might come crawling back to me tomorrow!"
Zhong Siquan said, full of pride.
"Absolutely. Given Lin Mengyao and Tang Yuxin, those pampered young ladies, how would they be willing to endure with Chen Feng, that pauper? They’ll surely come back tomorrow begging for you, Young Master Zhong. I just wish in advance that you will win their hearts!"
Wang Yang said obsequiously.
"Haha, thanks for the good wishes!"
Zhong Siquan laughed heartily.
In his mind, he already envisioned Lin Mengyao pitifully returning, begging him on her knees.
By then, wouldn’t he do whatever he wants to Lin Mengyao?
Thinking of this.
Zhong Siquan’s laughter became even more wanton...
However, at this moment in the cave.
Chen Feng and the three women were having a meal far more abundant than Zhong Siquan’s.
And they could eat freely, having everything they wanted.
If Zhong Siquan saw this scene, he would probably be so angry that he would cough up blood on the spot.
After eating and drinking.
In no time, the three women became sleepy.
After all, they are girls, having run around all day, it’s inevitable to feel tired.
So, the three women got into one bed, covered in a silk blanket, lying on a soft and comfortable wool carpet, closing their eyes to sleep.
The level of comfort far surpassed that of stiff tents.
If tents were compared to budget hotels, then what Lin Mengyao and the others slept in now could be called a presidential suite!
When the three women closed their eyes to sleep.
Chen Feng used True Qi to form a thin barrier around them.
Although this couldn’t withstand overly strong attacks.
However, it’s more than enough to fend off mosquitoes, snakes, and insects.
After all, this is an island, with many mosquitoes and other random poisonous bugs.
Getting bitten would be serious.
But with this True Qi Barrier.
The three women could sleep more peacefully and soundly.
Adding more wood to the fire to make it blaze.
Ye Qiu, however, had no sleepiness at all.
So he directly got up and walked out of the cave, stepping outside.
Looking at the moon in the sky, mostly covered by clouds.
Chen Feng’s eyes briefly showed a trace of longing.
Wondering how Lin Mengyao in the real world was doing.
Was Lori okay?
Was Liu Feifei exhausted from work at the company?
Unfortunately.
He now has the desire but lacks the power, knowing he’s within a dream, yet unable to return.
Can only temporarily place his longing for the real world’s Lin Mengyao onto this dream’s version.
