Chapter 1414: I Only Want You (112)
Jing Chu returned to the forest with lots of items.
Pei Yi drove her and Fat Lass to the forest personally and dropped them off at the metal gate.
Jing Chu climbed up the ladder to get to the other side, only to discover that there were more than ten marsupial lions waiting for her. Upon the sight of her, they got up from the ground excitedly and shook their bodies.
Jing Chu could really use some help. She tied the items to their bodies and told them to bring them in for her. She was initially worried that she could not manage carrying so many things and hence decided to bring as little as possible. Now that she had some help, she told Pei Yi to prepare more necessary tools and equipment for her to bring inside.
She also instructed him to bring her some clean sheets and pillows, as well as some crockery and pork.
Pei Yi was their errand boy and chauffeur for the day.
However, seeing how obedient and compliant the menacing beasts were toward Jing Chu, he decided that it was only right to reward and thank them with some meat.
They took an entire day to move all the items into the forest.
After moving everything, Pei Yi returned home. Before he left, Jing Chu reminded him not to barge into the forest without her accompaniment. Knowing the dangers involved, Pei Yi agreed.
The sky had already turned dark by the time they returned to the lake.
There was nothing much they could do.
Fortunately, the pork was enough to satiate them, although they were not exactly full.
After planning out their agenda for the following day, Jing Chu and Fat Lass proceeded to get some rest for the night.
From the following day onward, the lions would go out in herds to hunt for food while a small number of them stayed behind to help Jing Chu and Fat Lass. At the same time, they would also protect them from other animals.
After some observation and reconnoitering, Jing Chu found five trees that were of similar girth and height.
The five trees formed a shape that was closely similar to a pentagon.
They were very suitable for the construction of a treehouse.
The two of them were inexperienced in constructing houses and, hence, had to follow the instructions and blueprint given by Pei Yi.
It was rather tough for them to cut and saw the trees.
Fortunately, they had two types of chainsaws; one was electric while the other was manually-powered. Due to the fact that there was no power source in the forest, the electric chainsaw was battery-powered.
However, Pei Yi had given her something that was extremely useful.
It was a solar-powered power bank that had a large capacity and could be used to charge torchlights and mobile phones.
Pei Yi had given her five of those power banks.
She could use them on a rotational basis.
A professional architect and construction worker would be able to complete the construction of the house within a short period of time.
However, it was an arduous and Herculean task for the two women, who required an extremely large amount of time to complete the construction.
Not to mention, they would have been devoured by other menacing creatures if it weren’t for the marsupial lions that were protecting them.
Bullets were not enough to deal with those animals.
Over the next few days, Fat Lass and Jing Chu developed a tan that made their skin appear much healthier.
They first built a treehouse, followed by a den for the lions below the house. Lastly, they constructed two other houses.
Two of the houses were built on the trees while the other was built on the ground. It was meant to be a kitchen. The two houses on the trees were connected via a bridge made of a wooden plank. It was extremely stable because it was secured with nails.
The treehouses were eight meters above the ground.
They had also installed a spiral staircase that Pei Yi had bought and delivered to them.
However, Jing Chu still did not find it safe enough and instructed Pei Yi to send some cement, which she then used to secure the houses.
Pei Yi did his best to send her all the materials she needed within the shortest time possible.
However, she never brought him into the forest.
Even then, he still fancied the place after seeing the photos that she had sent him.
To his surprise, Jing Chu did not stop construction yet.
She still planned to build a room for the storage of firewood.
The bare land that was exposed to sunlight could be used for agriculture.
Their safety was ensured, thanks to the marsupial lions. However, the spiral staircase was rather inconvenient. Hence, she intended to add another wooden plank to the staircase, so as to make ascending easier.
It was a tough time for Pei Yi, for he had to be away from his wife for several consecutive days. Even Qin Guo began to think that they had already gotten a divorce.
However, he felt rather touched at the thought of the efforts she had put in for the sake of their future. Although she was away at the forest for a long period of time, Pei Yi would constantly show Pei Ling Jing Chu’s photo and remind him that she was his mother.
Hence, Pei Ling knew who his mother was even though Jing Chu was not by his side.
Pei Ling was barely two years old when Jing Chu and Fat Lass headed to the forest. By the time they were out, Pei Ling was already three years old.
They had spent an enormous amount of time building their new home.
However, Jing Chu finally felt a sense of security.
No amount of money could buy her that sense of security.
Their clothes had all been delivered to them, and they had also planted all the fruit trees.
This time, Jing Chu exited the forest with the intention of bringing Pei Yi and Pei Ling to their new home, where they would start life afresh.
Pei Yi had made some plans too.
After more than a year, the DK Organization had begun launching several terrorist attacks on every nation in the world. Although the attacks were launched by the chieftains from the headquarters, Pei Yi understood that they were just giving out warnings and threats.
However, their plans backfired.
Pei Yi first made a copy of the documents he was handling and sent it to his own mailbox. Jing Chu and Fat Lass visited Qiao An, whom they had not contacted in a long time, with the purpose of bidding her goodbye.
Jing Chu was surprised to see that Qiao An’s mother was present the moment she stepped foot inside the living room.
“Sis Qiao An.”
“You’re here, Jing Chu. I haven’t seen you in a long time. Hurry and come take a seat here,” said Qiao An, who was already six months pregnant.
Li Wanru was astonished at the sight of Jing Chu. The moment she heard Qiao An call her name, Li Wanru could not help but ask, “Jing Chu?”
“Yes, Jing Chu.”
Li Wanru stared at her in disbelief. “Are you from S Nation?”
After Jing Chu and Qiao An looked at each other, Jing Chu nodded and answered, “Yes, but I’ve been here for years.”
Li Wanru stood up and zoomed toward her. “Do you have a tattoo of your name on your arm?”
Jing Chu expressed assent and asked, “How did you know? Did Sis Qiao An tell you about it?”
Qiao An answered in denial, “I didn’t tell her.”
Li Wanru asked, “May I have a look at it?”
Jing Chu nodded and showed her the tattoo. After taking a look, Li Wanru closed her eyes and opened them again. “I was the one who tattooed your name onto your arm. You’re my daughter.”
“...”
