Chapter 62: Supplies Delivered Right to Our Door
On the shore, they found the pirate ship. Seeing the piles of supplies onboard, Chi Qian whistled. “Jackpot!”
Chi Fengxiao felt she looked more like a pirate than the pirates themselves.
Shen Jing and his son hauled all the cargo ashore, quickly stripping the ship bare.
The pirate leader watched in anguish, heart bleeding.
But Chi Qian still wasn’t done. “This little pile? Barely enough to cover my emotional damages. You also wrecked my bamboo hut and my bamboo bed—how are you going to pay for that?”
The pirate leader was stunned. “You already looted everything—even the planks off my ship—and you still want more?!”
Who’s the real bandit here?
It’s her, obviously!
[I swear I just saw despair on that outlaw’s face]
[LOL who else would be dumb enough to rob sister Qian? It’s basically donating supplies to her]
[Sister Qian: Oh dear, how embarrassing… maybe you should give me even more?]
“Since you’ve got nothing left, you can pay with labor!” Chi Qian pointed at the pirates. “Get up and get to work!”
Not one of them could escape!
Every single one had to build her house and her bed!
To make sure they didn’t slack off, Chi Qian tied the pirate leader to a tree.
Holding the whip she’d taken from him, she cracked it in the air now and then.
“Move it! You had plenty of energy when tying people up. Show me some strength now.”
“Who dares slack off? Don’t blame the whip in my hand if it lands right across your boss’s face!”
“So slow! With stamina like yours, you think you can be pirates? Go home and farm the fields!”
Not only were they tortured physically, but they also had to endure Chi Qian’s relentless verbal assaults.
The pain—only they knew it well.
Damn it, none of them ever wanted to be pirates again in this lifetime. QAQ
Not long after, the production crew and the coast guard finally arrived.
What they saw was a gang of pirates trudging back and forth carrying bamboo, busily building huts, bamboo beds, and all sorts of things.
The moment anyone slowed down, a fierce little girl on the side cracked a whip at them.
“Work this slow? You want your boss dead faster? Move it!”
And the boss of these pirates?
He was tied to a tree, his face covered in shoe prints, his eyes hollow, looking as if life had completely lost its meaning.
For a moment, no one could tell who the real pirates were and who the victims were…
The moment the pirates saw the coast guard, they nearly burst into tears.
Finally, someone had come to rescue them!
It was the first time the coast guard had ever encountered such a bizarre scene.
Not only did the pirates not resist, they even gratefully stretched their hands into the cuffs, eager to be taken away.
It was… baffling.
Before leaving, they even thanked Chi Qian and left her all the supplies she had… “confiscated.”
Anyway, it was just food. No big deal.
The production crew, however, wanted Chi Qian to hand over the supplies. Otherwise, if she had endless food and drink, how was the survival theme of the show supposed to continue?
But when they looked at the pirate leader—who had been tortured into an unrecognizable wreck in less than half a day—
And then saw Chi Qian eyeing their cruise ship with a “maybe I’ll hijack this next” kind of expression…
The crew decided that forget the survival theme—their own lives mattered more.
So after leaving the final mission card, they fled at top speed.
Meanwhile, Chi Qian trended on social media yet again.
At first, netizens thought she had brought her two killer whales along to raid someone’s house again.
But when they clicked in—oh boy. This time, she had taken down an entire pirate gang.
The pirates tried to steal her treasure, but she turned the tables and stole their ship.
Absolutely ridiculous.
Even a psychiatrist would need meds to stay sane after watching her highlights.
[Why is every one of Chi Qian’s trending moments so bizarre?]
[I actually feel sorry for these pirates. Looks like they were really tortured by sister Qian.]
[Honestly, I suspect Chi Qian is either a forest princess or a deep-sea witch. Otherwise, how could she possibly do all these things?]
[Thanks for asking—when has sister Qian ever been normal? Doesn’t exist.]
[Don’t talk nonsense. She looks pretty normal… when she’s being abnormal.]
After this incident, Chi Qian’s fans skyrocketed past fifteen million, racing toward twenty million.
On the island—
Chi Fengxiao looked regretfully at the half-finished bamboo hut. “Shame, Qian Qian. We should’ve made those pirates finish their sentence before leaving.”
Chi Qian: “It’s fine. We still have manpower, don’t we?”
She raised her bow and arrow toward Luo Fan’s group, who were trying to sneak away, and released.
Whoosh—
The blunt wooden arrow grazed past their heads.
“Chi Qian, are you insane?!” Ling Qian rushed to shield Gu Hua, glaring at her furiously. “Are you trying to kill us?!”
Chi Qian laughed coldly. “The debt’s not settled yet. Did I say you could leave?”
Luo Fan knew she was after him. His handsome face stiffened. “Chi Qian, this was all a misunderstanding. I truly didn’t mean it—”
Gu Hua, for the sake of “goodwill points,” chimed in: “Qian Qian, just look at how badly Brother Luo is injured. Obviously it wasn’t intentional. And in the end, no one’s hurt now…”
“You’ve been serving me the same pot of ‘aged West Lake Dragon Well’ for too long—I’m sick of drinking it.” Chi Qian cut her off. “You’re all on the same team. Don’t think I’ll only settle accounts with him.”
Ling Qian frowned. “Then what exactly do you want?”
“That’s how you talk to your savior?” Chi Fengxiao crossed his arms. “If Qian Qian hadn’t stepped in, would you still be alive right now?”
Seriously, the nerve of them.
Ling Qian’s face flushed green as he retorted, “Who asked her to save us?! Self-important! She just wanted to show off her skills, acting all mighty!”
Chi Qian: “Uncle, he’s hurting my eyes. Toss him in the sea to cool off.”
Chi Fengxiao raised two fingers to his temple in a mock salute. “Roger that, ma’am!”
He promptly hurled Ling Qian into the ocean.
Ling Qian had barely stood up when Orca No.1, Orca No.2, and a whole group of great white sharks surfaced around him.
He froze, not daring to move, his legs nearly giving out.
“Qian Qian, call off those animals!” Gu Hua panicked. “What are you trying to do?!”
Chi Qian leisurely accepted a lollipop from Luo Zichuan. “My labor force just ran away. But my bamboo hut and bed aren’t done yet.”
“If you don’t want to join him in the ocean prison, then get moving. Finish the work before sunset, and I’ll let you go.”
Luo Fan took a deep breath. “Fine, we’ll do it. As long as it’ll calm you down.”
Wen Li said nothing. She glanced at Tang Xin, then looked away.
Protecting her earlier—it was just a sense of duty.
But if she treated her too kindly, Wen Li would feel she was betraying her own child.
So… that was that.
Gu Hua and the others were forced to take over the pirates’ grunt work, building bamboo huts.
The sun hadn’t set yet, and it was the hottest part of the day.
They were panting with exhaustion, furious that they were breaking their backs building houses for someone else—while getting nothing for themselves.
And the worst part?
While they were slaving away, what were Chi Qian and her crew doing??
