Chapter 828: Stake A Claim

However, to the people who lived here, having access to three new varieties of food was sufficient to improve their life significantly.
The volunteers had come by plane and promised to visit again next spring.
The inhabitants here have never left their home. Even when they left to fish, they always stayed near the island.
Thus, the only way they knew to go out of this place was through the volunteers who visited by plane.
The little boats they used to fish could not be relied on for far travels. Those boats overturned too easily and could cost them their lives.
Most importantly, this place was their home. They had no interest in leaving.
After understanding the situation, both Bai Qinghao and Fang Xinxin felt very helpless.
There was no way they would stay here till next spring. The volunteers also did not specify when exactly they would return. What if they went back on their promise?
They stood in the hallway and glanced out of the window to see the boats attached to the homes. They were all too small.
These boats were absolutely no match for the powerful waves. They were only slightly better than a wooden raft.
He La approached Bai Qinghao’s side and took in his stern and attractive features. “Stay. I will treat you well.”
Fang Xinxin frowned lightly. She was fairly intelligent. How could she possibly misunderstand He La’s intentions?
This woman was interested in Bai Qinghao.
Bai Qinghao shook his head. “I will leave this place.”
“No.” He La refused.
She was determined to have this man!
Fang Xinxin asked her another question. “Is this your home?”
He La nodded. Her expression was proud. “My home is good, yes? It’s the biggest among the women.”
“There is only one room here.” Fang Xinxin pointed at Bai Qinghao. “Where do we sleep?”
“He sleep with me.” He La patted her own chest.
Fang Xinxin’s expression turned dark. She had expected this. “What about me?”
Hela lifted her hand and pointed towards the home in the center of the village. “You stay there.”
Bai Qinghao asked. “Whose home is that?”
The crowd on the beach had dispersed. It seemed like all the homes were occupied and there weren’t any vacant spaces.
“Yi Mo’s,” He La answered directly.
Bai Qinghao’s expression turned dark. His aura was frigid cold from his rage.
Hela felt that he appeared much more charismatic than Yimo. With just one glance, it was clear he was a capable ruler. Although she was a little afraid, she was more lovestruck.
In their village, both men and women were thought to be attractive when they were well-built and fair.
She was the fairest woman in this village. Although her skin was a shade of honey, it was much lighter than all the women in this place.
As for the woman who had just arrived, though she was very fair, she didn’t appear strong enough.
More importantly, the village leader was smitten with this woman. She believed that this woman wouldn’t be He La’s rival.
Fang Xinxin finally understood. The moment the two of them arrived in this place, Yi Mo and He La had claimed their stakes on them.
It seemed like these two were rather powerful here.
Bai Qinghao immediately held Fang Xinxin’s hand and turned to head out of the house.
“Don’t go…” He La rushed to follow.
Bai Qinghao turned back and glared at her coldly. The murderous intent in his gaze successfully made her falter.
She watched unhappily as they left. They walked through the shallow waters and returned to the beach.
Fang Xinxin spoke to Bai Qinghao in Chinese. “Hubby, do we leave now?”
He leaned close to her ear and whispered.. “We’ll stay here for a while and steal a boat.”
