Chapter 367: You Have a Lot of Grit
"Sister, he really can't come back, you guys, you just can't keep holding on anymore..." Two faint voices spoke up.
It was Xiao Ling and Xiao Li.
After food was controlled by the men, they had fallen.
Actually, all the women ought to thank these two girls.
Because if it weren't for these two girls, those men would have probably already set their sights on them.
But now, it seemed that it wouldn't be long before those men would forcefully take what they wanted.
They hadn't eaten anything for several days.
This time, Zhang Dazhuang had gone too far.
He hadn't distributed any food to the few women at all.
"It's okay, we have plenty of patience; let's see if you guys can hold out..." Zhang Dazhuang, hugging two female college students, left mockingly.
He didn't believe that these women could keep holding on.
The sensation of hunger is enough to make any woman, or even any person, abandon their dignity.
Of course, they were just being a bit more cautious.
What if that kid really came back alive?
But that possibility was too small.
Just wait another day then.
Although Zhang Dazhuang's men had left, the faces of the few women clearly showed worry.
Because they were too hungry.
Hungry to the point of panic.
Zhang Dazhuang hadn't controlled their water supply.
But when you're hungry, drinking water just makes you even hungrier.
Lin Xi, who was originally sitting on a rock, suddenly collapsed onto the sand.
"President Lin, are you, are you alright?" Xia Yan rushed to support Lin Xi, her face filled with concern.
Lin Xi's physique could be said to be the weakest among the women.
There was no helping it, she'd occasionally exercise, but she devoted most of her time to work.
And she had been pampered since she was a child; she might have never experienced the feeling of hunger in her whole life.
The other women were often in training.
Female pilots and flight attendants need not be mentioned, the young housewife practiced Taekwondo, and Yu Qingmei owned a yoga studio.
After several days of hunger, Lin Xi had become dizzy and blurry-eyed.
And, what was most fatal was.
Lin Xi had fallen ill.
It wasn't anything serious, just a cold.
But this made her body even weaker.
If she didn't eat something soon, she probably wouldn't last much longer.
But that group of despicable men.
Even made such shameful demands, how could the proud Lin Xi possibly agree.
Even in death, she wouldn't agree.
Damn it, why isn't he back yet!
Xia Yan glanced in the direction of the forest.
She was extremely anxious.
But, she also knew that Su Chen's chances of returning were very slim.
If Su Chen were still alive, he wouldn't ignore them.
"I'm fine." Lin Xi shook her head, looking even weaker.
"Sister, eat this..." Just then, the female college student Xiao Li suddenly appeared.
She looked around and then handed half of a grilled fish to Xia Yan.
Xia Yan looked gratefully towards Xiao Li.
Although these two female college students were very spineless, she didn't think they were wrong.
On the contrary, if it wasn't for these two college students secretly hiding their food every day to share with them.
They probably would have starved to death by now.
However, one day, half a fish, for five people...
It was practically the same as not eating at all.
But she was still very thankful to Xiao Li.
Because she knew, actually, Xiao Li could only get one fish a day.
For that fish, she had also paid a lot.
"It's okay, sis, you guys eat." Xiao Li smiled lightly, preparing to turn around and leave.
She still had to drag those men.
Otherwise, once they found out she was secretly giving food to several women, the consequences… she didn't even dare to think.
As for the method to keep them occupied, naturally...
In fact, in her heart, she still harbored a sliver of hope.
That was the hope that that man would come back.
Xiao Li could see that these women were very important to that man.
That's why she secretly shared the food with these women.
One reason was to repay Su Chen for his previous help to them.
Another reason was… if Su Chen came back, he would remember their kindness.
Just as Xiao Li turned around, her entire body froze, and then a look of fear appeared in her eyes.
Because she saw someone.
A burly man was standing right behind her.
It was Li Ming!
A subordinate of Zhang Dazhuang!
Li Ming's mouth had a wicked smile as he looked at Xiao Li with a playful gaze.
"Brother Ming, I..." Xiao Li opened her mouth, seemingly wanting to explain, but she had no idea how.
Her body trembled violently.
"It's fine, you did well." Li Ming walked up to Xiao Li, gently patted her shoulder.
Xiao Li raised her head, thinking, since when were these people so easy to talk to?
But when she lifted her head, she saw a palm as big as a fan flying toward her face.
Then, her slender body spun three hundred and sixty degrees before falling to the ground.
A dizzy feeling rushed over her.
It took a while for Xiao Li to come to her senses, with blood trickling from the corner of her mouth.
"Damn you, daring to secretly give them food, you think you've gotten smart, huh? Watch me not beat you to death!" Li Ming's face held a fierce expression as he kicked Xiao Li repeatedly.
Xiao Li rolled on the ground in pain.
"I said it, these women have managed to hold on until now because you've been playing tricks!"
Li Ming was genuinely angry.
He had long coveted these beautiful women.
But these women were obviously of a more defiant kind.
They would rather die than submit.
He thought that if he starved them for a few days, they would obediently submit.
Who knew…
"Stop!" The women wanted to intervene.
Sadly, they didn't even have the strength to stand up.
Li Ming, who was already a hot-tempered person, where would he be willing to stop.
He kept kicking Xiao Li until she passed out, then he finally stopped.
"Want something to eat? Come on, beg me?" Li Ming snatched half a fish directly from Xia Yan's hands and said with a mocking face.
"Let's see how long you can hold out!" Li Ming's eyes greedily swept over the women.
If it wasn't for the boss saying they couldn't push these women to death.
He would have acted long ago.
Damn it, let's see how many days you can last!
"Xiao Li, Xiao Li!" The young woman gently shook Xiao Li.
Xiao Li slowly regained consciousness.
"Are you alright?"
Xiao Li shook her head, "Yan sister, I'm fine."
Seeing that Xiao Li was fine, Xia Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yan sister, actually, I really envy you all, envy that you have such integrity. I want to be like you, but as soon as I get hungry, my integrity is gone..." Xiao Li said sadly.
"No, you are very strong!" Xia Yan cried.
Xiao Li's face showed a smile uglier than crying, and said, "I should go back now…"
