Others try to survive on an island, I try to survive on a raft?

Chapter 137 Is slacking off the right way?

Chapter 137 Is slacking off the right way?

Su Jin adjusted his posture, leaning against the side of the boat like an old man watching a play, and one of his hands secretly wrapped around Lin Xuan's slender waist.

In the telescope's view, the man who had sneaked down the suspended ladder earlier was now lying comfortably behind a large, moss-covered rock.

He had a blade of grass dangling from his mouth, his legs crossed high, and a look of utter satisfaction on his face, as if he'd finally gotten off work.

This man is named Zhao Dezhu. As his name suggests, he looks honest and simple, but he is a cunning old fox at heart.

He was in his thirties and used to be the head of the logistics department in a state-owned enterprise. He had no other skills, but he was exceptional at slacking off and doing nothing.

"Ah, this is life!"

Zhao Dezhu spat out the grass root in his mouth, stretched, and felt a tingling sensation spread throughout his body. He almost felt like he was about to ascend to paradise.

"Work every day, even the donkeys in the production team aren't used like this. Anyway, one more or one less won't make a difference. Let those idiots work themselves to death."

However, his leisure did not last long.

"Zhao Dezhu, what are you doing!"

A sharp, angry shout suddenly came from the bushes nearby.

Zhao Dezhu was so frightened that he almost rolled off the rock.

He turned his head and saw a little girl with a single ponytail wearing a school uniform skirt glaring at him angrily.

This girl is named Chen Yao. She is a passionate high school student who is the class's discipline monitor. After joining this group, she also became the discipline monitor with the strongest sense of collective honor.

"Hey, isn't this Yao Yao?"

Upon recognizing the person, Zhao Dezhu immediately adopted a nonchalant smile, patting the empty space beside him: "Don't get so angry. Teenage girls are prone to acne when they're upset. Come on, sit down and rest for a bit. Nobody's watching anyway. Shall we chat about our life goals?"

"Let me tell you, it's really hard to find a job in modern society. In this world, we don't have to work, and nobody cares about us."

"What about supporting your family, what about being filial to your parents? Don't worry about what others think. Just live in the moment, and that's enough."

.

"If I had to choose, I really wouldn't want to go back—"

Before he could finish his sentence, he saw Chen Yao's face turn red with anger, and she pointed at his nose, yelling, "You—you're shameless!"

"Everyone else is still up there working themselves to the bone moving things, how can you just hide here and slack off?"

"This is the third time this week! The third time! Last time you hid in the outhouse and wouldn't come out, but this time you're even worse, you just came downstairs to sleep!"

"Oh my, my little darling, you just don't understand." Zhao Dezhu wasn't annoyed at all, still maintaining his nonchalant attitude, as if imparting life wisdom, he said, "This is called a balance between work and rest, understand?"

"Besides, I was just going to pee, how can that be called slacking off? It's you who, at such a young age, is doing something wrong, constantly watching a grown man like me go to the toilet!"

"You're talking nonsense!"

Chen Yao was, after all, a student who hadn't even left the ivory tower yet, and was no match for this seasoned veteran. She was brought to tears by his sharp tongue.

"We're surviving on a desert island!"

"If everyone stops working and doesn't gather supplies, we'll all freeze and starve to death when the cold wave comes! Don't you have any sense of crisis at all?!"

"Tch, it's not as serious as you make it out to be." Zhao Dezhu rolled his eyes and said dismissively, "The cold wave hasn't even arrived yet, has it? Besides, if the sky falls, the tall ones will hold it up. Isn't our so-called leader quite capable?"

"Let her worry about it. I'm just drifting through life; whether I live or die is entirely up to fate."

"You're a complete parasite on the team!"

Chen Yao was trembling with anger. She turned and ran towards the suspended stairs, shouting, "I'm going to tell Sister Mu to kick you out!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Dezhu became anxious.

Slacking off is one thing, but if I really get kicked out of the team, then it'll truly become a live stream of dying in the wilderness.

"Wait, wait a minute, stop right there!"

Zhao Dezhu suddenly jumped up from the ground, grabbed Chen Yao's arm, and tried to cover her mouth with his other hand: "You little brat, how can you be so insensible? We're all in the same boat, can't we cover for each other? Can't we slack off together?"

"They insist on tattling to the leaders, going to extremes, and dragging everyone down with them—"

"He's probably gone stupid from all the schoolwork; all he does is curl things up all day long!"

As he spoke, he grabbed Chen Yao and covered her mouth, preparing to correct the girl's thinking.

Actually, he didn't have much ill intentions; he was just getting old and his physical abilities weren't keeping up, so he wanted to rest for a while.

If Chen Yao gave him a way out, saying that he could rest for a while, for example, if she saw him here again in ten minutes, she would tell the leader.

In that case, he'll go back to work on his own after a while.

Ten minutes more or less wouldn't make a difference; this young girl is just too straightforward.

But even Zhao Dezhu didn't expect that Chen Yao, this little girl, had an even stronger temper. She struggled desperately and bit his palm.

"Let me go! Help! Sister Mu, help me!"

"Aww!"

Zhao Dezhu screamed in pain, and looking at the two rows of deep teeth marks on his hand, his anger flared up instantly.

"Damn it, you won't listen to reason, so you'll have to suffer the consequences!"

Enraged, he shoved Chen Yao hard, pinning her to the ground, and straddled her, roaring with a ferocious expression, "Scream! Scream again and I'll kill you!"

Just then, an angry shout came from above.

"stop!"

Su Jin didn't hear the stern shout, but judging from Zhao Dezhu's reaction, he immediately moved the binoculars.

A white figure slid rapidly down the rope ladder at the edge of the cliff; it was a woman, the female leader.

The woman moved very wildly, letting go when she was still three or four meters off the ground.

She adjusted her posture in mid-air, bent her legs slightly, and landed steadily on the sand. Then, without any hesitation, she went directly behind Zhao Dezhu.

Zhao Dezhu was in a fit of rage at that moment, and with his hand raised, he didn't notice the murderous aura behind him at all.

The woman's eyes sharpened, and her right hand reached out like an eagle's claw, gripping Zhao Dezhu's collar tightly.

"Get down here, you son of a bitch!"

She gave a low shout, pulled her arm forcefully, and yanked it backward.

Zhao Dezhu, who weighed 140 or 150 pounds, was lifted up like a dog and then thrown to the ground by this woman.

Before Zhao Dezhu could even stand up straight, the woman stepped forward, grabbed one of his hands, and knelt down on one knee, pinning the large man beneath her feet.

"Grappling technique!"

Su Jin on the ship exclaimed in surprise. He knew this move too, but he didn't expect this female leader to be so powerful.

Without a doubt, Zhao Dezhu has been subdued.

Everyone on the ship witnessed this scene, and their faces showed surprise. Clearly, the female leader's performance was quite amazing.

Su Jin's eyes showed a hint of interest: "I'm looking forward to seeing how she will handle this next."

This is precisely the time to demonstrate a leader's ability.
