Chapter 21 - Chapter 21

[Healing Plan 1: I am a godly rich man. When I give a crooked smile, something big will happen. Why not give it a shot for a healing mission?]

Shut up!

If you have no suggestions, then don't offer any.

I really worry that one day, if I'm not careful, I might get led astray by the system's dark healing plan.

[Healing Plan 2: On a night in a desolate place, with the wind and rain howling outside, the four girls are alone with you. You warm their hearts with your manly actions, heal their inner unease, and in the process, gain some affection. Isn't this also laying a solid foundation for the eventual total annihilation of the girl gang?]

This sounds like a sunshine healing plan.

Whether the group gets annihilated or not is not important, the main goal is to establish a solid foundation for friendship with them.

[Completing any of the above healing plans will earn rewards.]

Drip, drip, drip~

The rain keeps falling, and the atmosphere is still fairly harmonious.

Originally, the Western Regions had long days and short nights, with the sun rising at 5 AM and setting at 11 PM, but due to the heavy rain, it was already completely dark before 7 PM.

The vehicles around them had already left, with only a Dodge Journey standing alone on the shore, enduring the heavy downpour.

Lin Can closed the car window and turned to speak, "I checked, this is a highland. Even if the water rises, it won't reach us here."

The others nodded. Having a man around while out in the wild is definitely a good thing.

The three girls started to think that if they were going to find boyfriends, they'd need to find someone better than Lin Can.

Chu Qingning: "It's a good thing we brought the younger brother. If it were just the four of us girls stuck here, we'd be so scared."

Lin Can: "Don't worry, it's just some rain. If we fold down the second and third rows of seats, we can make a big bed, and that'll create more space. You can sit on the bed, so you don't have to squeeze together."

Chu Qingning: "Alright."

So, the four women laid down the second and third rows of seats to create a large bed. They took off their shoes and knee-high socks, climbed up, and since they were wearing skirts, it was inconvenient to sit. They could only sit diagonally, their legs together. They each grabbed a headrest and placed it on their thighs to cover their privacy.

This wasn't just blocking their privacy; it was also blocking trust between people.

Chu Qingning patted the empty spot beside her: "Ah Can, come sit here."

"Okay." Lin Can climbed from the driver's seat to the big bed.

"Meina, I'm so cold."

Miao Youxi curled up like a drenched kitten in Qiao Meina's arms.

In midsummer, they were already dressed lightly, and the rain made Qiao Meina shiver, her skin covered with goosebumps. But as the queen of the friend group, Qiao naturally took care of her harem of concubines.

"If you don't mind, wear my jacket." Lin Can offered Miao Youxi her jacket.

Miao Youxi: "No need."

Chu Qingning: "Wear it."

"Thank you." Miao Youxi thanked her politely and put on the jacket.

Lin Can felt Chu Qingning's hand was a bit cold, so she pulled her over, sat her on her lap, hugged her from behind, placing her hand on her smooth, white thighs, and whispered in her ear, "Still cold?"

Chu Qingning shook her head. It wasn't cold anymore; in fact, it was starting to feel a bit warm.

Gurgle, gurgle~

Ayi Re's stomach growled. She tugged on Qiao Meina's skirt: "Meina, I'm hungry. Is there anything to eat?"

Qiao Meina immediately got angry: "Eat, eat, eat, all you do is eat. Besides eating, do you know anything else? You couldn't even handle a simple thing like the car, and you're still patting your small chest saying, 'Don't worry, Ayi Re's got it.' What now? You've really pissed me off."

"You're scolding me again. I didn't do it on purpose. I didn't want this either." Ayi Re put on a look of being wronged, like she was the most wronged person.

"Stop fighting, stop fighting. There are snacks in the bag." Chu Qingning emptied her bag, taking out some snacks, and handed Ayi Re a biscuit. "Here, eat this."

Ayi Re: "I don't want to eat!"

Qiao Meina was so angry her chest was puffed up: "Hey, Ayi Re, I gave you face, huh? It's your fault, and you're acting all wronged? You're throwing a tantrum like a young lady?"

"I don't want to eat. If you want to eat, you eat. Hmph."

Ayi Re turned her back, lying down on the bed, staring out the window at the rain, sulking.

Qiao Meina's teeth were itching from anger: "I really want to strangle her!"

Lin Can shook Ayi Re and gently persuaded, "Come on, eat something."

Ayi Re twisted her body: "I'm not hungry."

Lin Can: "You're not hungry now, but when you get hungry later, there will be nothing left to eat."

Ayi Re glanced at Qiao Meina, who ate the blueberry-flavored biscuit she liked, and snorted.

Lin Can saw her swallow her saliva and persuaded, "Come on, eat something."

Ayi Re hesitated. Since Qiao Meina was being unreasonable, she couldn't let her stomach go hungry, right? So she was about to sit up to eat, but just as she hesitated for a moment, Chu Qingning shoved a small bread into Lin Can's mouth: "She and Meina fight every day. It'll be fine later, don't mind her."

So, Ayi Re lay down again, listening to the "chomp chomp" sounds of them eating. Her stomach kept growling, and in her heart, she cursed Chu Qingning for being so mean. She was about to sit up and eat, but she stopped me, hmph. We're no longer good sisters.

Qiao Meina gave her a glare, kicked her with her long legs, and threatened angrily, "Ayi Re, I'll give you three seconds to sit up and eat. Do you hear me?"

"I won't eat." Ayi Re was stubborn and insistent: "Apologize, and I'll sit up to eat."

"Hey, I…" Qiao Meina was really about to lose it. She clenched her fist and endured, "Fine, I'll apologize. Ayi Re, young lady, I was wrong, is that enough?"

"Alright, since you know you're wrong, I'll let it go this time." Ayi Re elegantly sat up, flicked her long hair, gave Qiao Meina a proud glance, and stretched out her pale hand, "Give me my blueberry biscuit back."

"You little brat!" Qiao Meina grumbled as she threw the biscuit into Ayi Re's hand and grabbed another snack.

Lin Can looked at Ayi Re next to her. She was… quite a drama queen, but also kind of cute.

When people are ugly, their antics are annoying.

When people are beautiful, their antics are endearing.

Suddenly,

Boom—

A deafening thunderclap echoed through the night sky.

The four women screamed, "Ah~" and threw their snacks in the air, all huddling in Lin Can's arms. All they felt was softness.

Lin Can: !!!

Chu Qingning: ???

[Current Status: Hugging four beauties in your arms makes you feel like you're at the peak of your life.]

[Reward: 20 Healing Points]

To be honest, the sudden thunder startled Lin Can as well.

Once the thunder passed, the three girls pushed Lin Can away, leaving only Chu Qingning in Lin Can's arms.

"This thunder was terrifying, phew~" Qiao Meina hadn't recovered yet.

"Meina… Meina…" Miao Youxi tugged at Qiao Meina's hand.

"What's wrong, little cutie?"

"I…" Miao Youxi shyly glanced at Lin Can and whispered in her ear, "I need to pee."

"Ah, the thunder scared you so much that you need to pee?"

Pfft~

Lin Can and the others burst out laughing, Ayi Re almost choked on her bread, and Chu Qingning hurried to pat her back.

"You… hmph…" Miao Youxi was very shy in front of anyone outside the friend group. Throughout the day, Lin Can and she barely spoke.

She was the type of girl who was warm at home but shy in front of others.

Qiao Meina: "Can't hold it anymore?"

Miao Youxi's face turned red: "Mm."

Ayi Re: "Hey, Lin Can, turn around. I'll open the rear door, and you can stick your butt out and handle it."

Lin Can bit her lip to hold in her laughter.

Miao Youxi angrily slapped Ayi Re a few times: "No… Meina, will you go with me to the bathroom?"

"Uh…"

Boom—

Suddenly, another thunderclap rang out.

Ah~

Startled, Qiao Meina pushed Miao Youxi away. This time, she didn't pounce on Lin Can but instead jumped into Chu Qingning's arms, "No, no, it's too scary. Let Lin Can go with you to pee."

Lin Can: ???

This is a good thing?
