Chapter 18 I'm doing this for everyone's sake
Thinking of this, Qin Chuan stood up.
Liu Yifei was bending over tidying up the banana leaves on the bed, her back to him.
Qin Chuan took two steps and walked behind her.
Liu Yifei sensed the movement behind her and was about to turn around when Qin Chuan had already braced one hand against the wall beside her.
"you……"
Liu Yifei turned around and found herself trapped between the wall and the bed by Qin Chuan. Qin Chuan's arm was right next to her ear, and his entire body blocked her way.
A standard wall slam.
Liu Yifei froze, then looked up at Qin Chuan.
The distance between the two people was less than 20 centimeters.
Qin Chuan could see his reflection in her eyes and smell the faint fragrance of herbs on her body.
"Brother Chuan, what are you doing?" Liu Yifei's voice was clearly wary.
Qin Chuan didn't answer, but lowered his head and pressed his lips to hers.
Liu Yifei was stunned.
Qin Chuan's lips pressed against hers so quickly that she didn't have time to react. His lips were rougher than she had imagined, with a dry, cracked feel, but the pressure was very light; he simply touched her lips without applying any force.
The kiss lasted about three seconds.
The system notification sounded in Qin Chuan's mind on time:
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained a special ingredient! Target: Liu Yifei.]
[Character Skill: Eye Technique LV1 (Data Scanning Ability) (Proficiency +1, Current Proficiency: 5/10)]
Qin Chuan was overjoyed, loosened his lips, and took a step back.
Liu Yifei's face flushed red instantly, the redness spreading from her cheeks all the way to the base of her neck.
Then, she slapped him across the face.
"Smack!"
Qin Chuan's face was slapped to the side at a 30-degree angle.
The beating wasn't as severe as the one against Fan Yubing, but it still hurt quite a bit.
Liu Yifei's eyes reddened, and her voice trembled: "You... what did you do to me!"
Qin Chuan touched his burning face, offered no explanation, and walked out of the wooden house with his head down.
Liu Yifei stood there stunned for a few seconds, then rushed out of the wooden house feeling wronged.
Liu Yifei ran to the campfire, where Lin Shishi was roasting wild boar meat.
Lin Shishi was startled when she saw Liu Yifei rushing over with red eyes, and quickly stood up to support her.
"What's wrong, Sister Fei? Who bullied you?"
Liu Yifei bit her lip, her voice both angry and aggrieved: "Qin Chuan... he just... he kissed me."
Lin Shishi was stunned for a moment.
Fan Yubing was squatting nearby, whittling wooden sticks to make chopsticks. Upon hearing this, she stopped what she was doing.
"In the cabin, I just went in to look around the room, and suddenly... he cornered me against the wall and kissed me." Liu Yifei became more and more aggrieved as she spoke, tears welling up in her eyes.
Lin Shishi opened her mouth, unsure how to comfort her.
Qin Chuan walked out of the wooden house, head down, with a red handprint on his face.
He didn't come over, but stood a few meters away, looking like he had done something wrong.
Fan Yubing saw the problem.
She put down the wooden stick in her hand, patted the wood chips off her knees, stood up, and walked to Qin Chuan's side.
"Hmph, really," Fan Yubing said in a low voice, "So what if you have a 'many children, many blessings' system? Having me and Lin Shishi helping you check in isn't enough, you even have designs on Liu Yifei. You're simply a beast."
Fan Yubing spoke quite loudly, deliberately making sure Liu Yifei heard her.
Liu Yifei was wiping away tears in Lin Shishi's arms when she heard the words "Many Children, Many Blessings System" and paused for a moment.
"What kind of 'many children, many blessings' system?"
Fan Yubing turned around, looked at Liu Yifei, and sighed.
"Yifei, there's something we haven't had a chance to tell you yet. After Qin Chuan arrived on this island, he obtained a system called 'Many Children, Many Blessings.'"
"system?"
"Yes, it's that kind of thing... that pops up notifications in your head. He can gain energy and become stronger through intimate contact. A kiss will give him a small boost, and deeper contact will yield a bigger reward."
Liu Yifei's expression changed from aggrieved to bewildered.
Lin Shishi added from the side, "Sister Yifei, this system is real. Last night, a two-meter-long wild boar charged into the camp, and Brother Qin Chuan fought it all by himself. Before fighting it, he had Sister Fan kiss him, and after he finished, I kissed him again, and then he jumped two meters high. The boar you saw when you came here weighed over 300 pounds, and he carried it back by himself."
After hearing these words, Liu Yifei's expression was complicated.
She studied science and values evidence and logic.
But this world itself is abnormal: two suns, a blue moon, square coconuts, and wooden plank trees.
In such a place, the emergence of a "system" doesn't seem so unacceptable.
"But... he can't just do it without my permission..." Liu Yifei's voice still sounded somewhat aggrieved.
Qin Chuan walked over at this moment, stood in front of Liu Yifei, and lowered his head.
"I'm sorry, Liu Yifei. Actually, I didn't want to do this either. But I had no choice. If I can't become stronger, I can't protect everyone better. I'm doing this for everyone's sake."
Qin Chuan spoke these words with sincerity, not at all like he was acting.
In fact, he was genuinely sincere to some extent.
On this deserted island, he was the only one capable of fighting.
If he doesn't get stronger, the next one might not be a wild boar, but something even more dangerous, and then none of the four of them will survive.
Lin Shishi walked over, took Liu Yifei's hand, and said, "Yes, Sister Yifei, look, Brother Chuan built the whole wooden house by himself today. Do ordinary people have that kind of strength and stamina? It's because the system gave him a boost."
Fan Yubing chimed in, "He is indeed a scoundrel, but he also truly saved several of our lives. If it weren't for him, I'd be a corpse on the beach right now."
Liu Yifei looked at Qin Chuan, then at Fan Yubing and Lin Shishi.
The three people's accounts corroborated each other, leaving no room for doubt. Moreover, she personally witnessed the 300-pound wild boar carcass and moved into the wooden hut that Qin Chuan had built alone. These were all real facts that could not be faked.
Liu Yifei wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with the back of her hand and remained silent for a long while.
Then she took a deep breath and nodded.
"Okay, I got it. Brother Chuan, from now on... from now on I'll check in here every day. But you have to let me know in advance, don't surprise me, I can't accept that."
Upon hearing this, Qin Chuan finally felt relieved.
It's done. All three of them have it all sorted out.
From now on, each of the three people will check in once a day, which will give 3 proficiency points per day. I only need 5 more points to reach level 2 in my Eye Technique; it will only take two days to upgrade.
Qin Chuan nodded, his expression serious: "Okay, I'll definitely let you know in advance next time."
Fan Yubing, holding Liu Yifei's hand, said with a smile, "Sister Yifei, look, you don't have to be caught off guard by his kisses anymore. From now on, we'll line up and take turns."
Liu Yifei blushed again after hearing what she said.
Qin Chuan watched the three women whispering around the campfire, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
This lie about having many children and having many blessings has now been completely covered up.
