260: Chapter 260 Rest is Needed in Early Pregnancy

Lin Fan looked at her for a few seconds; this tone did not sound like a joke.

He took two steps forward, stood at the position Su Qingxue pointed to, and reached out to wave his hand in mid-air.

There was nothing there, and his palms could not touch anything.

Lin Fan turned back to look at her, "What about now? Is it still there?"

Su Qingxue stared blankly at the spot in front of him, her throat moving slightly.

"It is just like... floating in another space, manifesting through your body."

Lin Fan paused, a logical thought instantly popping into his mind: just as others could not see the red-letter warnings on his own retina.

Could the things Su Qingxue was seeing now be some kind of privilege exclusive to her?

Since this Deserted Island on the edge of the Devils Triangle even had a mutated giant python that could anticipate bullets, Su Qingxue being able to see strange things did not seem particularly rare anymore.

Lin Fan put his hand down, "Qingxue, what you see... is it a string of glowing characters?"

Su Qingxue did not answer immediately. She stared straight ahead, and after a few seconds, she shook her head.

"Not characters."

"Then what is it?"

"It is like... a photo, no, not like a photo."

"It is like a physical object."

Lin Fan frowned, "A physical object?"

Su Qingxue raised her hand and gestured.

"Right in front of my eyes, about this high, hanging here."

"It has color, shape, and I can even see the packaging on it."

Lin Fan was slightly stunned; this was simply absurd.

That wretched system of his was like squeezing toothpaste when giving hints at critical moments, refusing to make a sound until his head was about to roll.

Su Qingxue gets actual physical items directly over here?

"Can you touch it?" Lin Fan stared at her hand.

"I do not know."

"Then why don't you try?"

Su Qingxue hesitated for a moment before stretching out her hand and gently touching forward.

Her fingertips stopped in mid-air.

Lin Fan could not see any changes, but he saw Su Qingxue's fingers tense up visibly.

"Did you touch it?"

Su Qingxue took a breath, "I touched it."

"Can you take it out?"

Su Qingxue could not say for sure either. She tried to grab the object and pull it toward herself.

The next second, the air seemed to be torn open, and a glass bottle with a red cap appeared out of thin air, falling into Su Qingxue's hands.

The bottle was quite heavy, and Su Qingxue failed to hold it steady, almost dropping it onto her legs.

Quick-eyed and fast-handed, Lin Fan caught it in one go.

He looked down and saw a red cap, a red label, and three characters on it: Lao Gan Ma.

Both of them fell silent, staring at that bottle of Lao Gan Ma. The atmosphere was bizarre beyond words.

After a long while, Su Qingxue spoke softly, "What is this?"

Lin Fan looked up at her, "You don't recognize it?"

Su Qingxue shook her head earnestly.

The chili sauces she had eaten in her life were either secret truffle sauces handmade by Michelin three-star chefs or high-end air-freighted caviar. Things like this that cost ten yuan a bottle on supermarket shelves could simply never appear within her field of vision.

Lin Fan was almost laughed into anger, "President Su, how on earth have you lived these past twenty-some years? Did you really grow up drinking dewdrops? This is the divine meal-accompaniment artifact for countless Chinese people, the national goddess!"

"A... divine artifact?"

Hearing these two words, Su Qingxue's originally weak body inexplicably perked up a bit in spirit.

On this Deserted Island, anything that could be called a divine artifact was definitely a good thing for saving lives!

"Can it be eaten?"

"Of course it can be eaten."

Lin Fan twisted the bottle cap. With a crisp click, the cap opened, and a long-lost spicy and fragrant aroma drifted into his nasal cavity.

During this period, Lin Fan had been eating sea fish, jerky, and wild fruits until his mouth was almost tasteless. This instant almost hooked out his craving worms.

Su Qingxue smelled it too.

Just now, she was so weak that she didn't even want to speak, but now her throat visibly moved.

Lin Fan screwed the bottle cap back on and placed the Lao Gan Ma to the side.

"Are there more?"

Su Qingxue looked forward again; the things before her eyes had not disappeared yet.

After taking one bottle away just now, there were still two shadows beside it, one of which was much larger than the previous bottle.

She reached out to grab it, her movements this time a bit more proficient than before.

Closing her fingers into a grip, she dragged it outward.

"Clatter."

A red bag fell out from mid-air.

Lin Fan caught it in his hand and looked down.

Printed on the opening of the bag were a few characters: Northeast Rice.

Lin Fan was stunned on the spot. Lao Gan Ma was one thing, but now another bag of rice?

Weren't the specifications of this cheat a bit too outrageous? Lin Fan squatted down and pinched the bag.

It really was rice inside, not an illusion, let alone a model.

"President Su, this skill of yours is much stronger than mine."

Su Qingxue was a bit dazed by his remark.

"Your what?"

Lin Fan nodded and explained, "Sometimes I also see some hints."

Su Qingxue frowned, "You can see them too?"

"Mhm."

"So these past few months, you didn't rely on your knowledge reserve."

"Ahem!" Lin Fan coughed awkwardly twice, "Of course not..."

"Mine only activates when encountering fatal danger, so being able to live this long relies entirely on my brain, of course."

Su Qingxue was half-skeptical. Lin Fan patted the rice bag.

"But seriously, your practicality is maxed straight out."

Looking at that bag of rice, Su Qingxue's heart beat a little faster.

In civilized society, a bag of rice didn't even count as a fraction of a fraction on her bills.

But right now, this bag of rice was more valuable than a black card.

For the first time, she truly felt that she might not be a burden.

Su Qingxue continued to raise her head, "There is still one more."

Lin Fan paused. There is more?

This cheat was more than twice as awesome as his.

If he had possessed such a cheat back then, would he have needed to work himself to exhaustion scavenging for supplies?

Su Qingxue stared ahead, the confusion on her face slowly deepening.

"But I cannot quite understand this one."

"The packaging is very strange."

"It is like... a pink box."

"No matter what it looks like, on this lousy island, those things from civilized society are all scarce commodities."

"Take it out first."

Su Qingxue pursed her lips and reached out to grab the third object.

This time, she took it out very easily.

Lin Fan glanced over out of the corner of his eye. There were no large-font instructions on the packaging, only a bunch of flashy patterns.

But at a single glance, he could tell something was wrong with this thing.

Su Qingxue tore open the thin film, and Lin Fan stopped her.

"How about you don't unwrap it."

Seeing his reaction, Su Qingxue immediately frowned.

"You recognize it?"

"Uh... not very well."

"Then why won't you let me unwrap it?"

"I feel like it might not be very useful."

Su Qingxue's personality was just like this—or rather, women's personalities were generally like this: the more others forbade them, the more they wanted to figure it out.

Furthermore, the Lao Gan Ma and the rice just now had given her confidence.

What if this third one was also a useful supply?

She snatched the box over, "I will look at it myself."

Lin Fan facepalmed, "President Su, I advise you to calm down."

Su Qingxue ignored him and directly tore open the packaging.

The box lid was lifted.

The thing inside was revealed.

Su Qingxue looked at it for three seconds, then looked at it for another three seconds.

Her face went from pale to flushed, and then from flushed to burning hot.

"What on earth is this?!"

Lin Fan gave a dry cough.

"Modern technology."

"What is it used for?"

"Relieving stress."

Su Qingxue didn't quite understand.

She picked up that gizmo inside and flipped it over to the switch.

"Hum..."

A soft buzzing vibration sounded, and Su Qingxue froze entirely.

The next second, some bad images seemed to pop up in her mind.

As if scalded, she directly threw the thing away.

That gadget bounced twice on the ground, still buzzing.

Su Qingxue looked at Lin Fan with flushed cheeks, "Lin Fan!"

"Hmm?"

"Did you do this on purpose?!"

"Heaven and earth are my witness, you pulled this out yourself."

"I just told you not to unwrap it."

Su Qingxue was choked up. As the dignified head of Shengtang Group, she actually pulled out this kind of ghost item; if others found out, she would want to burrow straight into the ground.

Is God out of his mind?

"What are you standing there frozen for? Hurry up and pick it up and throw it away."

Before Lin Fan could take a step, footsteps came from the cave entrance.

"Brother Fan, we are back!"

Zhou Kai was leaning on a wooden stick, holding a bundle of dry firewood in his arms, having just stepped into the cave entrance.

Song Ya followed behind, also holding a bundle in her hands.

Xu Zhixia came in last. She wasn't carrying firewood, but instead holding some herbs, which should be medicine.

As soon as the few of them entered the cave, they saw that vibrating thing on the ground.

The air suddenly became very awkward.

Zhou Kai glanced down, then looked up at Lin Fan, and then looked at Su Qingxue.

His reaction was very fast.

"Uhm... Brother Fan, I feel like the firewood is still not enough."

He dropped the firewood in his arms onto the ground and turned around to leave.

"I'll go pick up some more."

Song Ya hadn't seen clearly at first, but hearing Zhou Kai say that, she glanced along the ground.

Her whole body paused, and her face instantly flushed red, "I... I'll go too."

Liu Feifei saw it too. Being well-traveled and knowledgeable, her reaction was even faster than Song Ya's.

But she didn't blush; there was simply a bit more gossip in her eyes. However, seeing Lin Fan's gaze, Liu Feifei immediately shut her mouth.

"I'll go pick up firewood too."

After saying that, she ran even faster than Song Ya.

Only Xu Zhixia was left standing in the cave.

She glanced at the thing on the ground, then looked at Su Qingxue's flushed face, and then looked at Lin Fan.

As a doctor, she originally didn't want to get involved in this kind of private topic.

But Su Qingxue's situation right now was special.

Xu Zhixia put down the herbs in her hand and cleared her throat.

"Qingxue's body is weak right now, and early pregnancy requires rest."

"Within the first three months of pregnancy, intercourse is not recommended, and using these... these bizarre things is even less recommended."

Lin Fan: "..."

Su Qingxue: "..."

Xu Zhixia added another sentence, "If you really can't help it, be gentler, don't press on the abdomen, and don't take too long..."
