Chapter 1749: Return
"Yaoyao!"
Tang Yuxin glared, a little angry, and said, "Why do you have to do this? Chen Feng is already dead. He died for us. Do you think he’d be happy seeing you like this?"
"Yuxin, please stop. You and Xiaoli should leave. I just want to stay here and be with Chen Feng for as long as I can. Please give me back the time that belongs to us!"
Lin Mengyao lifted her head to look at Tang Yuxin, speaking with a numb expression.
"Slap!"
A loud slap suddenly resounded.
Immediately.
A red handprint appeared on Lin Mengyao’s fair face.
And this slap.
Was delivered by Tang Yuxin!
She wanted Lin Mengyao to wake up a bit.
And indeed, it had some effect.
Lin Mengyao was taken aback by the slap, then stared straight at Tang Yuxin, asking in confusion, "Yuxin, you hit me? We’re such long-time friends, and you actually hit me?"
"I did hit you!"
Tang Yuxin glared at Lin Mengyao, very angrily, and said, "Yaoyao, I beg you to wake up. Chen Feng is already dead. Do you know what his greatest wish before he died was? He wanted you to live. He wanted you to return to Coastal alive! He died for you, he sacrificed himself so you could live. If he knew you’d be like this, do you think he’d be happy?"
As soon as Tang Yuxin finished speaking.
Lin Mengyao’s whole body trembled.
Because after being woken up by Tang Yuxin, Tang Yuxin’s words had truly reached her heart.
Yes.
Chen Feng died to save her, wanting her to return to Coastal alive.
But if she stayed here.
Wouldn’t Chen Feng’s sacrifice be in vain?
Even if Chen Feng knew in the afterlife, he wouldn’t be happy.
He’d only feel his sacrifice was particularly unworthy!
Thinking of this.
Lin Mengyao cried even harder, tears like broken strings of pearls, continuously falling.
This frightened Tang Yuxin greatly.
"Yaoyao, are you okay?"
Tang Yuxin hurriedly approached and hugged Lin Mengyao, asking with concern, "Did I hurt you with that slap? I’m sorry, I just wanted to make you wake up a bit. If it really hurts, then hit me back, you can slap me back!"
"Yuxin, I’m fine. I just think you’re right. Chen Feng sacrificed himself for me, for us. The more that’s the case, the more we have to pick ourselves up, otherwise, Chen Feng’s sacrifice would have been for nothing, wouldn’t it?"
Lin Mengyao shook her head, saying with bloodshot eyes.
"Yaoyao, I’m really relieved you understand this!"
Tang Yuxin said with a smile.
"Then let’s..."
Lin Mengyao said, lowering her head to look at Chen Feng’s body, taking a deep breath, holding back her grief, "Then let’s bury Chen Feng’s body, and then we’ll return to Coastal, no matter what, we must return alive to Coastal!"
"Okay!"
Tang Yuxin and Sun Xiaoli both nodded.
Then the three women hurriedly went to find a suitable place for a burial.
Luckily, it had just rained heavily.
The ground was soft.
The three women found a suitable spot, moved Chen Feng’s body over, and then started digging a hole in the ground with their hands.
Without any tools at hand.
This was indeed a difficult task.
No matter how soft the surface was.
It was just a thin layer.
The deeper they dug, the harder the soil became, with lots of rubble as well.
The three women’s delicate hands made digging pure torture.
Soon, their fingers were about to be worn out.
However, the three didn’t give up. Even gritting through the pain, they were determined to dig a hole big enough to bury Chen Feng’s body.
After all, compared to the great things Chen Feng did for them.
Their effort was truly insignificant.
After two hours of perseverance, the three finally dug out a large hole with their bare hands.
At this moment.
The originally delicate hands of the three women were no longer intact, continuously bleeding.
Nevertheless, the three didn’t pay attention to their minor injuries but focused on quickly putting Chen Feng’s body into the hole and burying him.
After completing all this.
The three finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking at each other now.
They were all disheveled, covered in dirt on their faces and bodies.
Their hands were dirty, still bleeding.
They were nothing like the refined girls who arrived on the island.
The three looked at each other’s bedraggled appearances and all smiled wryly.
"Let’s go, back to Coastal; this way, it fulfills Chen Feng’s last wish!"
Lin Mengyao looked at Tang Yuxin and Sun Xiaoli, took a deep breath, and said.
"Okay!"
The two nodded.
Then the three together began heading toward the yacht.
When they had arrived.
Chen Feng had docked the yacht near the shore, and it was quite close.
So, the three quickly found the yacht and boarded it.
"Do you know how to operate a yacht?"
Lin Mengyao looked at Tang Yuxin and Sun Xiaoli, puzzled.
"No!"
Both shook their heads.
Tang Yuxin then frowned slightly, looking at Lin Mengyao, and said, "I remember Chen Feng mentioned before that he had set the yacht on an automatic route; we just need to find the automatic navigation button!"
"Alright!"
Lin Mengyao nodded.
Then the three started searching around the helm.
Though none of them knew how to operate a yacht, they could read.
Pretty soon, they found a blue button marked "automatic navigation."
"Are you ready? We’re about to set off!"
Lin Mengyao extended her finger, looking at the two, asking.
Both took a deep breath and nodded.
Seeing this.
Lin Mengyao didn’t hesitate any longer and pressed the automatic navigation button directly.
Fortunately, after all the turmoil.
The yacht wasn’t damaged and remained intact.
So, after Lin Mengyao pressed the automatic navigation button.
The yacht started up, automatically adjusting its direction, following the route Chen Feng had previously set for returning to the mainland.
As the yacht started its journey.
The three women, having exhausted their last ounces of strength, sank down onto the deck.
After all the scares and turmoil they’d been through.
Added to the two hours of digging just now.
The three were utterly exhausted, without a trace of strength left.
"Let’s hope we make it back safely this time!"
Lin Mengyao looked at Tang Yuxin and Sun Xiaoli, forcing a weak smile, and said with a feeble voice.
"We will return, definitely!"
Tang Yuxin bit her lip, speaking with determination.
