But what could be the real reason?
Xuxu looked puzzledly at the man who was frowning with annoyance yet had an air of helplessness on his face.
She was struck with a thought and her heart softened.
Where did you get this boat?
Why do you care so much?
Surely he hadn't agreed to pluck coconuts for them in exchange for the boat?
She really couldn't believe that Yan Rusheng would give in to the women's demands in exchange for borrowing the boat.
But other than this possibility, she couldn't think of another reason.
After going through four trees in short order, Yan Rusheng put his pole down as it seemed like he'd gathered enough coconuts. He reached down and began to put the green coconuts into a basket that had been prepared in advance.
The women were huddled together at a corner and they kept gesturing at him. They had either criticized him for being too slow or the coconuts weren't good enough and so on.
