At first, Qiao Nian was optimistic that it would rain soon and it would be a thunderstorm that would stop soon.
However, what she didn't expect was that the rain continued and had a tendency to get heavier and heavier.
Just two hours later, the sporadic light rain outside became heavier and heavier, and in a blink of an eye, it was dark outside with dark clouds covering the top.
“My grandma said it will definitely not be repaired in the next few days. It’s been raining continuously and it usually won’t stop until the next week. You just have to wait until the rain stops before going.”
The girl looked at the continuous heavy rain outside the eaves and the endless dark clouds and knew that what Sam said was true. The rain would not stop in a short time.
Sam treated them as guests and said enthusiastically: "Don't worry, you can stay at my house with peace of mind. Just wait until the rain stops and then contact your companions."
“…” Qiao Nian moved her lips, thinking that if they were trapped here for more than a week, there would be chaos outside.
However, facing the kindness of the honest young man, she did not say anything in the end.
Sam thought he had convinced her, so he went back to the house to find rain gear, picked up the hot water bottle and said to Qiao at the door: "I'll bring hot water to my grandma and the others, and you guys can rest at home..."
Qiao Nian raised her eyes and was about to agree.
She saw an island resident running over in a hurry. She saw the man stumbled and almost fell several times, so she frowned and suddenly stood up straight.
Sam also noticed the people running towards him and shouted in surprise: "Uncle Da, why are you here? Where is my milk?"
The man called Uncle Da had dark and shiny skin. He looked at Qiao Nian first, and then anxiously said to the young man, "Oh no, something happened."

“Your grandma was swept away by the waves!”
"Bang -" The boiling water in the young man's hand fell to the ground. The water bladder fell to pieces and water splashed everywhere. It was not as ugly as his pale face at the moment.
Uncle Da also brought worse news. "We were going to rescue people, but for some unknown reason, the sea changed and a large group of sharks swam around Grandma Chunhua. The sea was very rough and the waves would definitely make it impossible for the ship to sail through. Even if we could barely sail over, we would still be afraid of being disturbed. That group of sharks can only be entered by humans...but those sharks are...man-eating sharks."
“…” Sam pinched his palms and tried to support himself from falling. He didn’t blame the neighbor who didn’t dare to go down. He gritted his teeth and said, “I’ll go!”
Just when he was determined to follow her, he passed by the girl's door and was restrained by Qiao Nian's hand.
“Is there a rope at home?”
?)
Sam's brain has not turned around and is still in a blank period stimulated by bad news.
"What?"
"The rope should be stronger. The longer the better! Do you have such a rope at home?" The girl's bright eyes gave people a sense of stability.
Sam didn’t know why he calmed down, looked at her blankly, and replied: “Yes, there is, I’ll use it to tie the boat. But you need a rope...”
"Bring it here." The girl calmly commanded him: "And you go find someone to bring all the lemons, vanilla, and mint you can find. The more the better."
Sam subconsciously listened to her words and got ready.
After a while he took out a lot of things from the house, all the things Qiao Nian asked for.
Qiao Nian looked at it and told him: "Lemons are not enough."
“You can find out if anyone else has it at home, make lemon juice for me, add vanilla and mint, mix it all in and crush it, put it in a spray bottle and give it to me.”
