The town was dominated by pasta and the two were unfamiliar with the terrain. They found a noodle restaurant nearby and each of them had a big bowl of seafood noodles. No matter the taste or the weight, no one could pick out the spiciness!

"This town is great! "It would be great if I could stay here forever." He limped along the street, leaning on his walking stick. Hai Xiaomin's face was filled with longing.

"Stop daydreaming, the townspeople won't welcome you." Suddenly, Ling Yao splashed a bucket of cold water on her.

Can't this man just say something better?

Hai Xiao Min's heart was blocked by him, and she was not convinced: "Why?"

"Resources." He raised his head and examined the land without any emotion, giving a professional analysis, "The more beautiful something is, the less willing they are to share it with others. The resources on the island are limited, so developing tourism is their best choice and their bottom line for opening up to the outside world."

Hai Xiao Min was stunned. Looking back at this small town, there weren't many houses built by the locals, so the others were obviously just normal tourists.

It turned out that this heavenly paradise had its own fatal flaws.

The two of them strolled along the streets of the town. The pedestrians gradually dwindled as they arrived at a forest that was deep and serene.

"There's a staircase here. Where does it lead to?" The two of them stopped at a stone staircase that led to the high ground at the center of the island.

Ling Yao raised his head and looked up. The advantage of height allowed him to see even further: "There's a tower at the top of the mountain."

"Tower? Is there a pagoda on Granite Island? " Hai Xiao Min curiously asked back. Just as she was about to take out the tourist map, she suddenly thought of something, "It's a lighthouse!"

"Lighthouse!"

Having said so, she was slightly stunned. Ling Yao's voice resonated with her's once again, and the two of them simultaneously thought of the same thing.

"Puff —" A knowing smile appeared on his face. No one had the tacit understanding to continue pestering him.

"Should we go up and take a look?" Hai Xiao Min asked as he looked at the peak of the mountain.

"I don't have much time to play." Ling Yao looked at the color of the sky. He had always thought about this more thoroughly.

"It's still early, let's just take a look. It won't take long." She still remembered the rumors of the lighthouse. Coming to Granite Island and not looking at the lighthouse with her own eyes, she always felt she was missing something.

Ling Yao lowered his head: "Are you sure?"

Following his gaze to his feet, Hai Xiao Min suddenly scratched her head awkwardly: "Oh ~ Sorry, I forgot …" "Then forget it, it's time to go back."

Catching the faint disappointment in Hai Xiao Min's eyes, when she turned to leave, Ling Yao grabbed her arm.

"?"

Ling Yao took a step forward and turned around. In the midst of Hai Xiao Min's confusion, his tall and big body instantly bent down. His back was exposed and his arms were at his sides.

"What are you standing there for? "Hurry up and come up!" Seeing that Hai Xiao Min did not react, he turned around and revealed a delicate and handsome face.

"Are you sure you're serious?" Hai Xiao Min was at a loss of what to do. He actually wanted to carry her up, this step was not short at all!

"Didn't you say to go and come back quickly? "With the speed of your snails, I'll thank the heavens and earth to reach the summit before nightfall!" Ling Yao continued to use his venomous tongue from time to time.

However, this time, Hai Xiaomin was not angry at all. The ill nature of his venomous tongue was completely incongruous with what he had done.

"How long do you want me to stay? "My legs are numb." Ling Yao stretched out his tone and even started complaining.

"Why are you so weak today?" One moment my stomach is hungry, another moment my legs are numb.

Hai Xiao Min smirked, but the corner of his mouth curved into a crescent moon shape. He obediently climbed up the man's broad back, carrying a shoe box and a walking stick. These things added up together weren't very heavy.

While carrying her on his back, Ling Yao stood up and began to walk up the mountain with ease.

"Is it heavy?" she asked carefully, still holding it in her heart that Ling Yao had hinted at her being fat.

He lightly weighed her in his hand, and said with a disdainful smile, "All the bones in my body hurt so much that my back hurts. How deep do you think you can sink?"

"Where's the pain?" Hai Xiao Min was also dumbfounded. When she heard this, she took it to be true. She twisted her body on his back, wanting to give him a more comfortable angle.

Ling Yao took a deep breath, "The chest is too big!"

Hearing that, Hai Xiao Min, who was lying on his back, was stunned. She was so angry that she wanted to raise her crutch and smash it on him.

Immediately afterwards, Ling Yao suddenly called out to her: "Hai Xiao Min."

"What for?"

"Have you never been carried by a man?"

Hai Xiao Min had a strange expression: "What kind of strange question is this?"

"I'm carrying you, you seem very flattered." He didn't mind revealing his discovery, as his sexy lips slightly curled upwards with a hint of pride hidden within.

Perhaps it was due to her personality, but she could do many things by herself. She did not like to rely on others, but she had never been carried by a man, that would be too exaggerated!

"Don't look down on others too much. A great beauty like me is very popular." Hai Xiaomin raised her pointed chin in self-infatuation. She pouted her lips, revealing her alluring and sexy lips. Her face was full of confidence.

Not mentioning the people beside her, could it be that her father wasn't a man? When he was young, he often ran around with her on his back.

"That's true." Ling Yao only let out a soft laugh, a low and melodious laugh from his throat.

Hai Xiao Min raised her eyebrows in surprise, it was rare for him to not have a venomous tongue to strike at her!

With regards to Hai Xiaomin's charisma, Ling Yao would never deny it. After all, he was a living example.

As she continued walking up, Ling Yao's breath started to catch in her throat, and she gradually stopped talking to her. Hai Xiaomin made several suggestions to let her down, and she could climb the rest of the way by herself.

He climbed to the top of the mountain in one breath, put Hai Xiaomin down, crossed his waist, and breathed heavily for a while. He stared at the steps below and said, "One thousand and one steps!"

Hai Xiao Min stared at him like a ghost. He actually counted the steps as he walked!

Most people carried her on their backs as they climbed up the stairs. They might even be exhausted halfway through. How could they have the heart to record numbers? Thinking of how they even chatted for a while, she couldn't help but exclaim, "This is abnormal!"

After reaching the top of the mountain, the lighthouse was not far away. After going through the baptism of wind and rain, the exterior walls had been peeled off, and there was no lack of dark yellow stains on the water.

Seeing the man's wet hair and forehead with a layer of fine sweat, Hai Xiao Min lowered his head and took a tissue. At this time, Ling Yao grabbed his hand: "Let's go and take a look!"

It took a lot of effort before he managed to climb up. It was hard to see how he could do it!

"Wait a minute, are you not going to rest …" Hai Xiao Min's lost voice was left behind, and Ling Shang used his actions to tell her that there was no need.

Maybe it was getting late, and there was no sign of human life at the top of the hill.

However, when the two of them circled around the lighthouse, they found that the small door was open, which meant that visitors were allowed to go up to the lighthouse. Without much hesitation, they climbed the spiral stone staircase to the lighthouse.
