The next morning, the other girls woke up earlier than I did, eager to leave the deserted island, showing more enthusiasm than me. Despite having breakfast, a trace of reluctance lingered within me. I led everyone to the seaside. The sun was shining brightly, the sky was clear blue, and though the temperature remained cold, the sunlight provided a warm illusion.

Under the sunlight, the girls were full of excitement, smoothly pushing the bamboo raft to the shore with all the supplies securely tied to it. Then, they all looked at me, waiting for my instructions, ready to set sail. Seeing their expectant eyes, I smiled bitterly, gathered them around, and told them about my decision to stay.

As soon as the girls heard it, their expressions changed.

"Weige? What are you saying? Don't joke!" Su Jie exclaimed directly.

"Yeah, XiaoWei gege, don't tease us. We've prepared for so long to leave together!" Li Lin hurriedly grabbed my hand.

Although Xu Xiaorong was silent, her face turned pale, and she tightly held onto my sleeve.

"I'm not joking; you all go first. I can't just abandon Peggy." I smiled bitterly and shook my head.

"If you're leaving, we're leaving together!" Su Jie decisively sat on the beach and declared.

"Yes, leaving together!" Li Lin and Xu Xiaorong echoed. Only Black Spice Girl seemed a bit hesitant.

Su Jie, Li Lin, and Xu Xiaorong's actions warmed my heart. It seemed that my care for them during this time wasn't in vain. I intentionally put on a stern face and said, "You guys stay; it'll only cause me trouble! I need to go save Peggy, and I can't be worrying about you at the same time." I knew they might think that without them, there would only be me on the island, and I could live better. But I understood that if I were alone on this deserted island, the loneliness and solitude might drive me insane. Even Robinson Crusoe had cats and dogs as companions!

Many times, when I walked in the snow, feeling like I couldn't hold on any longer, I thought about my shoulders, still carrying the lives of several girls. In this way, I seemed to have found the motivation to keep going. If it weren't for them, on some day not long ago, I might have been lying in the cold snow, turned into a frozen corpse.

"I think Weige is right. We should leave first, so as not to burden him! Besides, after we go out, we can immediately attract rescue and then bring Weige and Peggy out!" Black Spice Girl hesitated for a moment, pulling the other girls aside.

Although what she said seemed to make some sense, Xu Xiaorong and Li Lin were still hesitant. Su Jie, on the other hand, stared at me fiercely, shouting, "Is Peggy more important than us? We're also in danger at sea!"

"Su Jie, if you went missing on the deserted island, I would also do everything to find you." I smiled and said to Su Jie, then reached out and directly lifted her onto the bamboo raft. Then I walked over and picked up the absent-minded Li Lin.

"I... I can walk by myself!" Xu Xiaorong, seeing that I was going to pick her up, quickly shouted.

However, I ignored her. Let her walk by herself? Dream on! I jogged over, picked her up around the waist, one hand wrapped around her back, and the other firmly supporting her firm little buttocks. Thinking that I might not see Miss Xu again in the future, I could indulge a bit more. A big hand on her round and tender buttocks, I squeezed and fondled a few times. Xu Xiaorong, who I might never see again, became embarrassed and furious. Her gem-like eyes were watery, but seemed as if they were about to spew fire. She blushed and struggled hard but to no avail. After teasing her, I threw her onto the bamboo raft.

"Rest assured, everyone. I'll soon bring Peggy, and we'll find you together outside!" I grinned at them, swiftly pushing the bamboo raft into the sea.
