Chapter 189 - She's running a shipyard (3)
Bei Nuan only rested on his chest for a short moment before poking his waist.
"Someone is looking for me to tell me something."
Lu Xingchi raised his head to look and saw the colorful tattooed man standing in the distance along with his smaller friend.
The colorful tattooed man saw Lu Xingchi looking over at him and awkwardly said, "It's okay. Take your time. I'll wait."
Bei Nuan felt even more embarrassed. She got out of Lu Xingchi's arms and asked, "You said you had something to tell me when we were on the stage. What is it?"
Seeing that there were so many people walking around, the colorful tattooed man said, "Let's go out to talk."
Outside the cave, it was already daytime again. The sky was very blue, and the sun was shining brightly.
After being in the cave for so long, Bei Nuan couldn't immediately adapt to the bright sunlight.
The wind blew over the lake and brought a breeze with refreshing moisture to the cave entrance. Bei Nuan took a deep breath and felt invigorated.
They left the cave entrance and walked to a deserted area.
The colorful tattooed man looked over Lu Xingchi before saying, "I originally thought this little girl signed up for the cage fight to earn money because she was the only one left, but you guys are still together. Why did you have her cage fight?"
Startled, Bei Nuan quickly explained, "It has nothing to do with him. Someone forced me to participate in the cage fights. He just found me."
The colorful tattooed man nodded. "Oh, so that's why."
He turned to Bei Nuan. "I was going to ask you if you want to come with us. We don't want to stay on this island anymore. Now that you're both here, do you want to go with us?"
As it turned out, the colorful tattooed man and his friend had also been heading west to try to find the safe area. Just like Bei Nuan's group, they hadn't been able to cross Yanhe River, so they crossed international lines and met the island group that went out to look for workers.
After arriving on the island and understanding the situation, they wanted to leave. However, it was easy to enter the island and move freely on the island, but it was difficult to get off the island.
As a B tag, the colorful tattooed man could sign up for teams that left the island to search for supplies and find an opportunity to escape. However, his friend had a D tag, and no team would take him along.
And so, they decided to escape the island. Workers could buy wood to build houses. They bought wood with money they earned from their part-time jobs, made a ladder with it, hid the ladder, and were looking for an opportunity to climb over the high wall using the ladder.
The only problem now was the lake. It was too far to swim to the other side. They thought about stealing a boat, but the boats were docked on a pier that was facing the gate. Thus, they decided to build a boat.
It was much more difficult to build a boat than a ladder. There was suitable wood available for sale, but it was expensive. It might be months or years before they could earn enough money, so the colorful tattooed man thought of a quick way to earn money, cage fighting.
He had won the cage fight and had enough money to buy the wood now. That's why he waited to ask Bei Nuan if she wanted to go with them once the boat was built.
Bei Nuan quietly waited for them to finish talking before saying, "We still have something to do on the island, so we won't go with you guys for now, but…"
Bei Nuan curved her eyes. "Big Bro, I want something from you."
The colorful tattooed man boldly said, "Sure, tell me what you want."
Bei Nuan asked, "Can you give me your ladder once you climb over the wall?"
The colorful tattooed man easily agreed. "Sure, no problem."
Bei Nuan continued to say, "I won't take your ladder for nothing. I'll trade you a boat."
"A boat?" The colorful tattooed man along with his friend were shocked. "You have a boat?"
"Yup," Bei Nuan calmly said, "A small wooden boat with oars. So, you don't need to build a boat. If you want to leave, you can leave today."
Happiness came too fast like a tornado that swept them off their feet.
The colorful tattooed man was speechless for a long time.
"If you give us your boat, what will you do when you want to leave?"
Lu Xingchi spoke before Bei Nuan could, "She has another boat. She's running a shipyard."
