Is it a problem to have a harem in a stranger heroine?

Page 629

Bai Ye had great trust in Bingtang. If the above words were said by Ying Lili, he would have to doubt whether what he would see when he returned from chopping wood would be a messy tent and a panting little golden retriever collapsed on the ground.

"Out to sea, let's go."

"oh oh."

I put on a suit, gloves, and tools and hurried to catch up before going out to sea. Fortunately, I had just changed into long sleeves and long pants, otherwise mosquitoes, rats, and ants would not easily spare someone who wore a skirt and stockings into the woods.

"Senior, is it too late to cut down the tree now? It looks like the sun will set in less than half an hour."

"Of course we can't cut down big trees, but we can always chop down dead trees and pick up some firewood."

Before leaving, he asked his aunt and learned that a typhoon had hit a big tree the previous year, and after a year of wind and sun, it had become a dead tree.

After a while, Bai Ye found the dead tree. He touched the surface of the tree and it was a little wet, but when he split it open, he saw that the inside was dry.

Time was running out, so Bai Ye didn't waste any more words and just picked up the fire axe and started working!

"Go out to sea and cut some twigs. It doesn't matter if you go slowly, but being careful is the most important thing."

“Okay——!”

I went out to sea and found a forked branch. I adjusted my posture as Bai Ye said, and chopped down with the hatchet tightly held in both hands!

Click——

The dead branches snapped with a sound.

After going out to sea, she found that it actually didn't take much effort. Excitedly, she looked for thin branches and cut them if they were broken. If there were gaps, she kicked them a few times and continued to cut. After a while, she had cut all the dead branches.

"Senior, this is so fun~"

Bai Ye turned around and saw that she had made great achievements at sea. He didn't expect her to be so enthusiastic.

"Pick up what you've cut, and don't cut the forks that connect to the trunk. It's too late."

Thanks to his habit of watching wilderness survival and outdoor construction survival videos, Bai Ye has a good understanding of tree-cutting techniques. Even though he was not proficient at first, he quickly integrated the techniques on paper into actual operations.

"Hoo-huh—it's really tiring. Luckily I get a lot of exercise."

Looking at the sun in the sky which still had a hint of a smile on its face, Bai Ye swung the axe a few more times. He was too lazy to trim the branches carefully, so he just picked them up and put them into the bag.

"Are you ready to go out to sea? Let's get ready to go back!"

"Here it comes, senior, look! I chopped off a section of the fork!"

He went out to sea holding a hatchet, his eyes flashing with unusual excitement.

"Why do I feel so safe holding a hatchet? Novels and comics say hatchets have a strange magical power over girls. Turns out it's true, especially when looking at seniors. Hehe~ Hahaha~~"

Seeing Chu Hai gradually revealing a smile of being teased, Bai Ye couldn't help but tremble.

He felt a little regretful that he had asked Chuhai to help. At the very least, he shouldn't have asked Chuhai to get the hatchet.

"Little girl..."

Bai Ye took off his gloves, walked forward to tidy up her hair that was messed up by the tree branches, then lowered his head and kissed her tender and juicy cherry lips.

Chu Hai's eyes lit up and he fell in love with her almost instantly.

A minute later, their lips parted.

"Is it enough?"

"Kiss for another minute." Chu Hai took the initiative to kiss.

……

"Ok?"

"One more minute."

……

"Is it okay?"

"One more minute."

……

Chapter 936: Bonfire has a strange magical power, maybe it can...

It was already half dark when Bai Ye and Chu Hai returned to the villa.

Through the light of the flashlight, Bingtang and Baiye met each other, and the former jumped up and waved excitedly.

"Aye, here, here!"

"I see!!" Bai Ye shouted in response.

When he got closer, he was greeted by Eriri's complaints.

"Why are you so slow? I thought you fell into some deep pit and were about to have a celebration party."

Bai Ye rubbed her little head, and the latter's proud expression could not hide the worry in her eyes.

"The mountain road is difficult to walk on. I'm sorry for the delay."

Chu Hai, one of the parties involved, knew that this was half true and half false. Originally, they could have returned before the sun went down, but they kissed for minute after minute, and in the end she even forgot how many minutes there were.

Fortunately, it was already dark and no one noticed her blushing face when she just came back.

"Is the tent ready? I cut a lot of wood."

"It's done. It turns out setting up a tent is so troublesome. It makes my back ache..." Ying Lili turned her neck.

"I guess most of the credit goes to the rock sugar, right?"

Bingtang grinned but didn't answer directly.

"Hey, Eriri was a big help out there holding up the tent for me."

Bai Ye shrugged, saying nothing.

Realizing that her forced facade had been exposed, Eriri decided that the best strategy was to flee.

"I'll get some stools. Bai Ye, hurry up and get going, or you won't have the bonfire lit by the time I get back."

"Would you like to try to light a fire with your mouth for one minute?"

With a flamethrower and the wilderness survival skills Bai Ye had learned, lighting a bonfire was not a difficult task.

After directing Bingtang and Chuhai to form a bonfire circle with the stones they had picked up, Bai Ye also trimmed the dead branches and leaves he had picked up into a size suitable for the bonfire.

As for tinder, the boss gave me some when I bought charcoal.

"According to Bear Grylls, Democrat, and other wilderness survival experts, before lighting a bonfire, you should first stack branches into a cone shape, put dead leaves at the bottom, and stack them loosely to allow for ventilation."

Bai Ye recalled the past while taking action. Seeing that the bonfire in front of him was about 70% similar to the one in teaching, he took the flamethrower and lit the tinder.

call--

The flames quickly burned the dead branches and leaves, and some broken leaves flew into the air with the air flow. The firelight reflected the excited faces of several people gathered around the campfire.

"It worked in just one go?!" Eriri couldn't believe it.

"I'm a genius, I'm kidding you." Bai Ye folded his hands and looked up at the sky.

Yinglili snorted, but the effect was in front of her and she couldn't refute it. She had to treat the bonfire as if it were a daytime night and poke it with branches to vent her anger.

"What should I do next? It won't burn for long with just thin firewood."

"Please give me more firewood."

Bai Ye took out the thick branches and firewood he had cut with an axe, and placed them around the campfire in the same cone shape.

"Maybe it rained the past two days, so the surface of the firewood is a little wet. It's a good time to roast it over the fire. When the thin wood is burned out, put the big wood down and then put a few pieces of charcoal in. This way it should burn for a long time."

A few wisps of green smoke rose from the bonfire. Seeing this, Chu Hai moved the small stool further away, sat down, and reached out to the bonfire to test the temperature.

"Huh—it's gradually getting warmer..."

Bingtang sat beside her, also stretching out her hands, the firelight illuminating her smiling face.

"Lighting a bonfire makes me feel like I'm camping in the wild. I wonder if we can also light a bonfire at the campground down below?"

"No, campfires are not allowed in that campground. You can only use a gas stove for cooking and an electric heater for heating," Eriri replied.

"That's right. If so many tents were to catch fire, the consequences would be disastrous."

Humans tend to instinctively love and yearn for fire, especially on cold nights, when the security and hope represented by a burning bonfire are irreplaceable.

Bai Ye hugged Eriri, whose pride was burned by the bonfire, and sighed in his heart that the bonfire had a strange magic. The warmth it emitted could make people open their hearts unconsciously and show their truest selves.

Just like himself, he couldn't help but lower his head and peck Eriri on the lips.

"Bad guy~" Eriri cursed in a delicate voice.

Bai Ye chuckled. It was rare for Eriri to not act so arrogantly in front of so many people.

"It would be a waste if we don't roast something on such a nice bonfire. Go get something from the kitchen, you bastard~"

"Aunt's dinner should be ready soon."

"I just want to bake something, I just want to bake something, come on, come on~~" Eriri swung her twin ponytails, her cheeks puffed up slightly.

Bai Ye covered his nose, thinking that the coquettish but not arrogant Eriri was truly terrifying when she acted coquettishly. How could he possibly resist?!

"Okay, okay—I'll go...Isn't it okay if I go..."

Bai Ye came to the kitchen and smelled the aroma of miso as soon as he opened the door.

"Smells so good, auntie."

"Um, is Xiao-jun here? Tonight's meal is pork and tofu miso soup, braised chicken wings, vegetable salad, and fried shrimp tempura."

Bai Ye couldn't help but laugh when he heard the last dish.

"Is it so luxurious to eat fried shrimp in the mountains?"

"I bought it before leaving this afternoon. After all, it can be kept for a while in the cold weather. It was still alive and kicking when we got to the mountain."

Bai Ye was amused and told the purpose of his trip.

"Aunt, do you have any ingredients to grill? We're all clamoring for such a good bonfire, so we don't want to waste it."

Sayuri had just seen the reflected light of the bonfire through the window glass, and could hear everyone's laughter and joy.

"There are chicken wings. I prepared them for you earlier. Take them~"

"Thank you, Auntie. That's very thoughtful."

Bai Ye walked out with a plate of raw chicken wings, not forgetting to pick up the barbecue fork. After coming out, he asked the three people in the living room:

"Want to go barbecue?"

Shiyu looked up from the computer.

"No, I'll wait until midnight to go and see how cold it is in the mountains at night."

"Me too. Ye Jun, you guys go ahead and play first. I'll take a look at Shi Yu's novel."

"Bai Ye-kun, please serve the tea to everyone."

Bai Ye brought chicken wings and tea to the yard, winning cheers from everyone.

"Drink the tea first, before it turns into iced tea."

There were eight chicken wings in total, which was a bit of consolation for the hungry stomachs. Bai Ye put a chicken wing on a barbecue fork and handed it to everyone, rubbing his hands and saying:

"The barbecue competition has begun. Let's see who has better skills. If anyone burns something, they have to fix it themselves. Don't throw it to me."

"You wish I'll throw it to you!"

Bingtang and Chuhai were using barbecue forks for the first time, so they asked Bai Ye for advice with the idea of "learning by watching".

"The ideal temperature for open flame grilling is when your hand feels hot after waiting for 5 seconds from the flame. If you're worried about burning, try 7 seconds."

"Does it work?" Ying Lili asked doubtfully.

"This is what the survival master taught me." Bai Ye spread his hands.

Eriri waved the chicken wings over the campfire, but felt it was too close, so she immediately stepped back to a distance where she could feel the heat with her hand.

Bingtang followed suit and improved his method, spinning the chicken wings all the time and humming a little tune happily:

"Grilled chicken wings, I love it~~"

I had been watching from the sea and hadn’t noticed that the chicken wings were so close to the campfire.
