When Hu Chuntian woke up, his eyes widened. There was someone sleeping beside him, naked.
"D-Da Ge?"
Wait, what happened last night!? Why is his future brother-in-law sleeping with him!?
Because of his high irrationality stats, Hu Chuntian's mind is always constantly jumping to conclusions. Last night, Mo Aini offered to have some drinks. Did he do that to take advantage of him!?
Was he a creep after all!?
He immediately pushed him off the bed!
"Fuck, ow....." Mo Aini opened his eyes groggily, his head aching from a hangover. "A-Tian, why did you---"
"I don't know what made you think to do this but you do not have the right to take advantage of me just because I was nice to you!" Hu Chuntian shouted. "I like Mo Jiagei, not you, and I will never like anyone other than her! Get out of my house, right now!"
"Wha—" Mo Aini rubbed his temples, confused at being yelled at so early in the morning. "I seriously don't know what you're saying—"
"Don't even deny it! You made me drunk so you could molest me, didn't you!?"
At hearing this, Mo Aini.exe had stopped working for a very long time.
"I..... Wha-huh--whaaa---eh?"
Hu Chuntian glared at him, face red as tomatoes. "Lucky for you, I have a trip to Liangyue Island to catch up to, so I wouldn't be pressing charges yet! No, I wouldn't even need to press charges, if you come any closer I will not hesitate to bash your head! So leave now before I accidentally kill my future wife's brother!"
"ASDFGHJKLLKJHGFGHJK---- Calm down!" Mo Aini stood up. "This was all a big misunderstanding, don't you remember that you were the reason why I had to strip us both in the first place!? Why is it my fault now, you're the one who started it!"
Hu Chuntian's eyes grew even wider. He misunderstood this again. He thought Mo Aini was saying that he was the one who initiated this whole drunken affair---
"I don't believe you, I will never do such a thing!" Hu Chuntian shook his head persistently, clutching at his hair. "No, no, no! Impossible! What will Mo Jiagei say!? I cheated on her! I cheated on her with her brother!"
(Shit, those Shuaige bastards and that fucking Liu Sha truly maxed out all his craziness stats! What the hell is he muttering about 'cheating'? He and meimei aren't even dating!) Mo Aini thought, making an expression between a laugh and cry again.
This whole ruckus was interrupted by Hu Chuntian's phone alarm, which is just a blaring death metal song. He took it and his eyes widen once more.
"It's already 10 o'clock!?"
Mo Aini was also surprised. The ship made by Nushen High was scheduled to take off at 6:30!!!
Hu Chuntian was in disbelief, after receiving shock after shock. He turned to Mo Aini.....
And gave him a strong kick to the gut!
"This is all your fault! You planned this, didn't you!? I should have never trusted you ever since you told me you were my lover!"
"Urrkk!!!!" Mo Aini clutched his stomach and fell to the floor from the sucker punch.
Hu Chuntian immediately grabbed his luggage and changed into the nearest clothes he could find. He quickly dialed something on his phone, and went in a call with someone, slamming the door at Mo Aini.
Mo Aini caught his breath from the chased after Hu Chuntian. He grabbed some pants and a random shirt from his room and run after him outside with his own luggage. Hu Chuntian had already hailed a car, and shut the door before Mo Aini could enter!
Mo Aini chased after the car, slamming his hand on the window! "Hu Chuntian, let me explain first! You're not even going to listen to my side!?"
"Go now! Hit him if you have to!" Hu Chuntian ordered the poor driver.
The driver was mad scared and tried to swerve to avoid Mo Aini who still relentlessly chase after the car. But he is just a human after all, and a side character at that, so in the end, he lost the car.
But he didn't give up.
----------------
"The helicopter's not available, sir."
"Liangyue doesn't allow any unauthorized vehicles, we can't let you borrow our boats."
"Then give me a speedboat and manual so I can drive there myself!" Hu Chuntian yelled at the phone, then hang up. Once he reached the port, he almost scared to death several fishermen and boat owners as he strides to his father's connection at the sea transport and delivery service.
The bearded man took off his cap and shook as soon as he saw the Tiger Emperor's deadly eyes. "We really advise against this, sir---"
"Do you want your whole business to get bankrupt in just a month?" Hu Chuntian pushed him aside. "If not, get out of my way!"
A light drizzle came to shower them and his hair was wet and dripping when he reached the line of tourist rental boats and jet skis.
A nervous staff push up her glasses and offered him a brochure-like paper... "H-Here's the m-manual.... sir..."
He yanked it out of her hands and climb aboard one of the speedboats, setting down his stuff and going straight for the controls, his eyes madly scanning the instructions.
Then, there was a shout.
"Hu Chuntian, wait for me!"
He turned and saw his traitor Da Ge who took advantage of him running up to the docks with his bag in tow.
"Tsk! Get away!" Hu Chuntian threw the manual aside and started to just go for it, gunning for the engine at the highest speed possible.
Still, Mo Aini miraculously managed to leap at the last millisecond and reach his speedboat like some Olympic champion!
"Hah.... Hah.... I caught up to you...." He caught his breath. He went closer, staggering from both the tiredness and the shaking of the speedboat. "A-Tian---"
"Don't you dare touch me! And don't you dare call me A-Tian either, your predator!" Hu Chuntian gnashed his teeth.
"I'm not a fucking predator! Just listen for a bit, will ya!?" Mo Aini was exasperated. "You got drunk last night because you had 15 bottles, and rambled on and on about Mo Jiagei. Then, you suddenly puked up a storm----"
Just as he said the word 'storm', a real storm came, dark cumulonimbus clouds overcast one what they thought would be a bright sunny day! Great waves crashed towards them, veering their boat in circles and circles! Hu Chuntian lost his footing and almost hit his head if it weren't for Mo Aini holding on to him protectively as their boat threatened to capsize!
It happened so fast, and soon, they were engulfed by the waters and fell to the sea!
---------------------------
"Cough! Cough! Blergh!"
Mo Aini spat out the saltwater and a bit of seaweed that got lodged in his throat.
He laid on the sandy beach for a while, feeling like he just got out of Diyu* and met with King Yama* for a while, then got back to Earth.
He scanned the area. Nearby was his luggage, just as soaking wet as he was. He just hoped the contents like his clothes and chips remained unscathed.
And beside him was Hu Chuntian, lying still and not breathing.
"A-Tian!" He immediately crawled over to his side, tapping his face. "A-Tian, wake up!'
He brought a hand over his nose and mouth. There was no air, and panic started to rise over him.
He placed his ear to his chest. There was also nothing.
"Shit, shit, shit!" Mo Aini tried to recall his memory of CPR and performed it, pumping his fists on Hu Chuntian's chest. One, two, three.... Ten chest compressions.
There was no response.
"Fuck, no.... Don't do this to me, A-Tian.... Don't...." Mo Aini kept on compressing until he reached thirty, but Hu Chuntian stayed motionless and not breathing.
"Why is he not breathing!?" He yelled to the system. "Wake him up, right now!"
But no one answered him. He was just alone on this deserted island, with his beloved as still as a corpse.
After the compression, there was no other option besides rescue breaths.
He shakily pried opened Hu Chuntian's mouth and blew in, hoping and hoping.....
Still nothing.
Mo Aini tried not to cry and think of all the dark thoughts in his head. He didn't give up and repeated the procedure. Once, twice, three times.....
And Hu Chuntian still gained no pulse.
"Fuck...." He covered his face with his hands and sobbed. "This can't be happening..... A-Tian....."
Then, he heard a small cough.
Followed by a much larger one, and a heavy gasp for air.
Mo Aini took his hands away from his face and saw that Hu Chuntian has regained consciousness! He wiped his tears and clasped his face. "A-Tian!"
The Tiger Emperor was resurrected, his long lashes fluttering. He turned to Mo Aini. "Da Ge..... You....."
"You came back!" Mo Aini had never been so relieved his whole life, clutching Hu Chuntian tightly. "You came back to me..... A-Tian.... I was so scared..... I tried and tried and I thought it was too late...."
"You.... You saved me?" Hu Chuntian asked, with his blue eyes deeper than the sea.
"I didn't." Mo Aini shook his head. "It was all my fault, you were right. Everything, it's just my fault. Don't be grateful to me A-Tian. You waking up saved me."
Hu Chuntian could not understand all this, but this is the first time he saw Mo Aini cry. At least, since he lost his memories, but he obviously doesn't know that. He was dumbfounded by it and could only pat his Da Ge's back.
They stayed like that for a while as the dark clouds start to go away and the weather become fine again.
"Where are we.... Da Ge?" He finally asked once Mo Aini was fully consoled.
"I...I don't know." Mo Aini sniffled. "There's no one here."
He stood up and brush off his clothes. "Stay here. I'll go call for help."
He took out his phone from his pocket. It was dead and cracked.
"Shit.... Uh...." He turned to Hu Chuntian. "Let me have your phone for a while."
Hu Chuntian also reached out for his phone, but it was also dead. It drowned in the water with them so of course it's fully ruined.
"Um.... Don't worry." Mo Aini gave him a forced smile. "Maybe there's people living here who can give us directions. I'll go search."
"Hello! Is anyone there!?" Mo Aini ran up to all sides of the beach, looking for any occupants and yelling as loud as he can.
But there was only the endless forest, and no other human on sight. He ventured deeper at the trees a bit, but he doesn't want to get too far from Hu Chuntian, so he came back after an hour of yelling and shouting around 200 meters from where they were washed away.
He came back scratching his head. "There's no one, but maybe if we travel farther and looked around---"
"I don't think there is anyone, Da Ge." Hu Chuntian stood up, and check the contents of his luggage. "This isn't Liangyue. And from what I've researched, all the islands around Liangyue are uninhabited."
Mo Aini blinked. "So you mean that---"
"We're completely alone."
