Chapter 1387 Sweet Memories
“Darling!”
Ichika’s eyes lit up when Solomon passed her the sushi.
She happily gulped down the sushi like a kid who felt excited after getting a candy.
Seeing that, Solomon, who had been feeling depressed for a long time, brightened up.
Nonetheless, he felt upset again soon after.
Solomon had no problem with collecting firewood. However, he soon realized that the pampered girl knew nothing about the forest. To a certain extent, he thought Ichika would be of great help if she could stop messing around.
“Darling, how thick should the firewood be? Can you tell me the size?”
“It doesn’t matter. You can pick up any firewood as long as you can carry it.”
“Okay!”
With that, she skipped happily to look for firewood around the area.
Solomon began to pick up some firewood as well.
When Solomon was young, his mother had brought him to the snowy Northeast City to do a lot of hard work. In other words, he had not enjoyed a life of luxury when he was just a boy.
As Solomon was busy picking up firewood, Ichika came back and shouted excitedly, “Darling, look! I’ve collected a lot of firewood!”
Solomon took a closer look at the firewood and was rendered speechless.
The so-called firewood that Ichika had collected was a bunch of little branches.
However, Solomon held in his anger, seeing that Ichika was sweating a lot on her forehead.
“All right. Stay right here and tidy up the firewood that I’ve collected.”
“Okay.”
Ichika was innocent and even felt excited when Solomon asked her to tidy up the firewood.
Immediately, she squatted down before the pile of firewood and thought to herself, Since Darling has given me this job, I must do my best to complete it perfectly.
With that, Ichika began organizing them attentively.
Solomon heaved a sigh and continued to look for more firewood in other areas.
The island’s terrain was similar to the research base from which they departed. Therefore, Solomon could collect enough firewood, even though the island was small.
Crisp! Crisp!
Suddenly, Solomon heard some noise. He stopped in his tracks and looked over.
There was a squirrel biting a big pine cone on a pine tree. Realizing that Solomon was looking at it, the squirrel pricked up its ear cautiously and stared at Solomon.
Without any hesitation, Solomon shouted, “Ichika, come here, quick.”
“What?”
At that time, Ichika was squatting before the pile of firewood and pondering about the best way to organize it. When she heard Solomon’s voice, she looked up and ran toward him.
“Darling, what’s wrong?”
“Look.”
Little did Ichika expect the man to call her over to show her the squirrel.
A glint flashed across Ichika’s eyes when she gazed at the cute squirrel.
Given that it was the first time she saw the little creature in real life, Ichika couldn’t hold in her excitement.
Although it was merely a squirrel, she was overjoyed because Solomon remembered her for the first time and invited her to witness it.
“Darling, where’s your phone? Let’s take some pictures of it. I’m sure Vivi and the rest will like them very much.”
“Sure,” Solomon agreed and handed over his phone to Ichika without hesitation.
When Ichika wanted to turn on the screen, she was asked to key in the password.
“Darling?”
“3202,” Solomon told Ichika the password calmly before he continued to collect firewood.
With that, Ichika turned on the phone happily and took pictures of the squirrel.
The view was perfect when it was late in the afternoon. As the sunlight shone on the forest and passed through the gaps between branches, the beautiful shadows of leaves were like a breathtaking painting.
After taking the pictures, Ichika shared them with the others in the group chat.
Solomon: Hi, guys! It’s Ichika here. Look, we found a squirrel!
With that, she sent the pictures to the group.
Instantly, those who were on their respective missions stopped what they were doing.
Sabrina: My goodness! It’s so cute! No way! Where are you guys now? I want to go look at it too!
Devin: Have you finished collecting vegetables?
Devin sent a few pictures as well. They were pictures of the couple plucking wild vegetables in a stream.
At this moment, Devin had taken off his shoes and was standing in the river barefoot.
As for Sabrina, she was sitting on a rock, posing for many photos.
Everyone was aware that Ichika was using Solomon’s phone at this moment.
Just as they were unsure how to react to Sabrina’s pictures, Sasha suddenly realized something in the group chat.
