In the afternoon, Nan Yu excused herself, saying she was tired, and didn’t go out. Fei Yizheng, perhaps sensing something, also chose to stay at the villa.
The two of them appeared to be strolling around the villa, but in reality, they were exchanging information.
“An enemy?”
Nan Yu didn’t say where she got the information or who gave it to her; she only gave Fei Yizheng this coded message.
Fei Yizheng didn’t ask any further questions, but instead began to think along these lines.
“I’ve checked the weather forecast for the island these past few days, and it’s been sunny all day.”
“And this island isn’t far from the mainland.”
It would take about an hour by boat.
At this moment, Nan Yu and Fei Yizheng arrived at the door of the underground storage room. The island has a freshwater purification system that can provide freshwater for more than 100 people a day. There is also a vegetable and fruit garden where people grow vegetables and fruits and raise some poultry.
However, some essential goods still need to be purchased and stockpiled.
For example, seasonings like salt, some tools, etc.
All these things are currently stored in this underground storage room, but even if something happens to the storage room, it’s easy to send supplies from the mainland.
“Tell me…” Nan Yu suddenly spoke up from the doorway, “Is there any possibility that we’re trapped on the island?”
“To achieve this…” Fei Yizheng understood Nan Yu’s meaning, “It’s not simple.”
This isn’t ancient times, when information wasn’t readily available. Even if someone cut off all signals on the island and destroyed everything that could get out, there’s still Nan Ji outside.
Given his personality, if he can’t contact An Ning and the others within an hour, he’ll definitely send someone over.
“How infuriating!” Nan Yu kicked the corner of the wall in annoyance.
“Every time I come here to play, it causes trouble.”
“I’m even starting to suspect that when my parents gave me this island, fate had already arranged it.”
Once the island is given away, Nan Yu believes that even if she doesn’t bring it up, her parents or Nan Ji will suggest coming to the island to spend the winter when it gets cold.
But the thought of being tricked made her very unhappy.
Indeed, staying home is a good choice; the chances of being schemed against are reduced.
But why?
Are they destined to cower at home until fate defeats them?
“You can’t escape it by hiding.”
Fei Yizheng seemed to see through Nan Yu’s thoughts.
“The more you hide, the more afraid you become of fate, and the less you can change it.”
He wasn’t just saying this casually. This was the first time Fei Yizheng had spoken to Nan Yu about his parents.
Fei Yizheng first saw fate when he was six years old. By then, he already knew many characters and was much smarter than other children his age. He quickly understood that the characters above people’s heads were their fates.
His parents also had them above their heads. Both died in car accidents, but unlike Fei Yizheng, they were not directly linked to Fei Yunjin’s childhood death.
“I told my parents about it.”
Unlike many wealthy families, Fei Yizheng’s parents married after falling in love. Even though Fei’s mother was an orphan and the entire Fei family opposed the marriage, Fei’s father insisted on marrying her.
After marriage, the couple didn’t end up like many ‘Cinderella’ stories, ending in mutual dislike.
On the contrary, their relationship remained strong. Fei’s mother was talented in painting and, with Fei’s father’s support, quickly achieved success. A year after their marriage, they welcomed their child, Fei Yizheng.
Fei Yizheng’s childhood was undoubtedly happy; he had loving parents and a comfortable family background—a life seemingly destined for success.
If nothing unexpected happened…
