Gong Hao looked at the life pod Gong Cheng had rowed away in and gritted his teeth.
No wonder he left so quickly!
This escape pod couldn’t be used. Fu Xi had moved over the remaining escape pods on the ship.
“Ah Hao, try these.”
Gong Hao remained silent with a dark expression. He threw them all into the sea, but to their disappointment, not a single escape pod could float on the water.
They were all spoiled! 𝐟𝘳𝑒𝗲𝘸e𝒃𝘯𝒐𝐯e𝚕.c𝒐𝒎
Gong Hao turned to look at Fu Xi and held her hand tightly.
“Xi’er, I’ve implicated you.”
She had already reminded him long ago that there was a problem with Gong Cheng, but he still trusted Gong Cheng so easily and even brought her into danger.
On the sea, they were probably powerless to escape.
The sea breeze blew past Fu Xi’s face. Her eyes were sparkling and her gaze was firm.
“Don’t be ridiculous. We won’t die.”
They still had hope before the ship sank.
Gong Hao was silent.
“Howl!”
Little Bear’s anxious shout came from the side. The two of them looked towards the sound and saw that it was pressed under a few broken pieces of wood. Its foot seemed to be stuck and it could not move.
Fu Xi hurriedly ran over and moved the wood away with her bare hands.
Gong Hao rushed over and helped her move the wooden boards. With his help, the speed at which the wood was being moved increased.
At that moment, there was a series of battle cries.
“If we catch them, all the money on the boat will be ours.”
Fu Xi suddenly raised her body and looked around. A light lit up on the sea surface, and there were ships everywhere.
The boat was filled with people, but when she saw their clothes, her heart sank.
“They are pirates.”
They were dressed in pirate clothes. There was a large flag on the leader of the ships. It was a black flag with a large skull drawn on it.
In the sea breeze, the flag fluttered in the wind, and the skull was especially dazzling.
Gong Hao was also shocked and his eyebrows were almost knitted together.
“Why are there pirates?”
This was a deserted island. Even if the ships had traveled for a period of time and returned to their original route, there would be very few ships that had passed through this route. If the pirates wanted to rob, they should not have targeted this boat.
“Look there.” Fu Xi pointed at the stern of the pirate ship.
“Ah Hao, I see a familiar face.”
Gong Hao looked in the direction she was pointing at, his gaze instantly bone-chilling.
It was Gong Cheng!
Seeing that they had noticed him, he grinned and hid among the pirates.
His smile was mocking under the fire.
“He was the one who hired the pirates.”
Fu Xi exhaled and pushed Gong Hao. “Leave quickly.”
She increased her speed and moved the wooden board that was pressing Little Bear away.
However, these pieces of wood were the fragments of the captain’s cabin that had shattered after the ship had leaked. They were very heavy. Just now, the two of them had only moved less than a third of them away.
Little Bear cried even more miserably.
How could Gong Hao leave Fu Xi alone? Seeing that she insisted on saving Little Bear, he quickly moved the wood as well.
The last piece of wood was moved away, and Little Bear’s foot was finally pulled out.
“Let’s go!”
Fu Xi carried it into her arms, but Gong Hao shook his head.
“We can’t.”
She froze and looked around. While she and Gong Hao were moving logs, their ship had already been surrounded by pirates without any gaps.
Fu Xi stroked Little Bear’s fur and turned to look at Gong Hao.
“Ah Hao, sorry.”
“Don’t be ridiculous.” Gong Hao held her shoulder with a firm gaze.
“I’ve said it before. I can never leave you behind.”
