I snagged a bargain in a melodramatic novel and became incredibly wealthy!

"Caiyi, you've finally arrived."

Xiao Baihua caught An Ruosu, who had fallen from the cruise ship, and breathed a sigh of relief.

Caiyi, like a monkey, slid down and landed on the lifeboat.

The three of them rowed their boats toward an island whose outline was faintly visible in the distance.

The island was so familiar that it made Caiyi feel uneasy.

Xiao Baihua held An Ruosu in her arms, while Wen Yu carried the driver on his back.

Cai Yi towed the lifeboat to a coconut tree and tied it there. He then took out his phone and tried to call Xu Qingming.

After several attempts, she had to give up and make sure everyone was settled first.

The people were settled in Shenhe's old lair, which was dilapidated but enough to serve as a temporary residence.

Cai Yi circled the island, while Xiao Baihua and Mu Bai led the others to collect usable supplies.

The desire for wealth fell silently on the waves that were already close to the coconut trees.

Why does the tide rise so quickly?

She had been here for quite some time and had never seen the tide rise so quickly before.

Cai Yi shook his head, thinking he might be overthinking things. He would just go back and confirm with Xiao Baihua.

There was no shortage of food on the island, so the people were relatively able to wait for rescue.

Mu Bai guarded the group of people, while Xiao Baihua and Cai Yi stood not far from the door.

Caiyi: "Do you remember when the tide rises and falls here?"

Xiao Baihua thought about it carefully: "About once every fifteen days."

Caiyi: "...But only ten days have passed."

It's only been ten days since their last mission ended, how come the tide is already rising?

Xiao Baihua didn't think that much: "Natural phenomena are very difficult to measure, and people judge the laws based on a cycle."

"Natural phenomena are constantly changing, and scientific data can only be used as a reference, not as a definition."

Cai Yi asked Xiao Baihua a question: "If you were at sea and holding a dangerous object, what would you do?"

Xiao Baihua answered without hesitation: "Throw it into the sea."

Cai Yi smiled bitterly: "Yes, throw it into the sea..."

So why did she let the explosives detonate in the control room?

This is already quite bizarre.

Moreover, why did they happen to encounter this particular island?

This is an island destined to sink in those melodramatic novels we followed back then.

Some plot points may be unchangeable. In the brief moment she was affected, she was unaware of her own abnormality, and no one else noticed either.

Caiyi slapped herself; she was in a complete mess.

She took a deep breath and said to Xiao Baihua, "Go back and see if Mu Bai can use their electronic devices to create a signal booster."

"Have your family send a boat over immediately."

Xiao Baihua didn't ask why, and went straight in to find Mu Bai.

Caiyi ran to the high tide area, took a deep breath, and jumped in. She wanted to make sure that the island was not planted with bombs, just like in the story.

In the storyline, Shen He planted a dense array of bombs at the bottom of the island.

The tide was rising too high, and Caiyi, who wasn't a strong swimmer, couldn't swim any further due to the dangerous marine life.

"Cough cough..."

The wealth-seeking creature hangs on the coconut tree, spitting out water from its mouth, its whole body soaking wet.

She couldn't swim any further; the bottom of the island was too deep, and her abilities were limited.

She ventured deeper into the island, hoping she would be able to contact her family.

In the story, the island sank on the 15th of August, and this month happens to be August, but she doesn't know the exact date...

Seeing that Caiyi was soaking wet, Xiao Baihua quickly grabbed a bed sheet to wrap her up and handed her a cup of hot water.

Caiyi took the hot water, took a small sip, and realized that the nights on the ocean were always particularly cold, especially after she went into the water, she felt it even more.

The hot water chased away some of her chill; now she was concerned about the date: "What's the date today?"

Xiao Baihua was a little confused, but she still answered, "Number 7".

"Eight days, there are still eight days left!"

Cai Yi muttered to himself, then suddenly ran to Mu Bai, who was fiddling with electronic devices: "Can you contact the outside world?"

Mu Bai shook his head: "No, I've tried many versions of the signal device, but none of them work!"

These anti-drug police officers are capable of making their own signal devices, which gives them the ability to contact their families, transmit crucial information in a timely manner, and apprehend criminals, no matter where they are.

But if the homemade signal device works fine, why can't I contact my family?

Mu Bai doesn't understand!

However, her years as a narcotics police officer gave her an animalistic, exceptionally keen sense of danger.

So she kept making different signal devices to try and contact her family.

The three were filled with worry, while on the other side, a heated argument was taking place.

"Wen Shen, look what your fans have done!"

Luo Xiaoxiao's makeup was now smudged and no longer as glamorous and exquisite as before. She looked around with disdain at her tattered appearance; she had never looked so disheveled before.

"Ah Huai, let's stop arguing, okay?"

"it is good."

Mo Huai held Mingya in his arms, feeling a sense of happiness that came back to him after losing her. He never wanted to argue with her; he just didn't understand why she couldn't give up the entertainment industry for him and return to her family.

It's okay, he can give up his family for her, as long as they are together.

Mingya leaned against him, her heart softening. She had already received the honors she deserved, so why did she have to stay in the entertainment industry?

She felt that spending the rest of her life as a wife and mother would be a happy thing.

"Wen Yu, I've always heard that your fans are very extreme, but this is truly an eye-opener."

"Who's a good person who's a fan of celebrities? Someone who's chasing after celebrities with bombs."

"Anyone who doesn't know better might think he's a hater who wants to destroy everything."

He Che has always been a shy person, but now that he's stranded on a deserted island and can't contact the outside world, it's no wonder his tone is so sarcastic and unpleasant.

"Waaaaah... I'm scared... Waaaaah..."

Bei An'an, a pampered young lady, had never experienced anything like this before. After arriving in Huangdao, she cried constantly, and her eyes were swollen like walnuts.

"Stop crying! All you women do is cry!"

"It's true what they say, 'long hair and short eyes.' This deserted island is going to be a thrilling adventure that will broaden your horizons."

"If you're scared, I can give you a hug; you're crying so loudly."

Zhang Ye spread his arms in annoyance. This rich young lady, anyone who didn't know better would think she was a crybaby. She cried endlessly, wasn't she afraid of going blind?

Bei An'an threw herself into Zhang Ye's arms and cried even louder, but her fear had subsided considerably.

Xiao Shen sat quietly to the side.

Wen Yu felt a little awkward staying with An Ruosu, because no one liked him anymore, and only An Ruosu was willing to stay with him.

The production team sat in a huddle, so worried they were practically falling out of their hair. They didn't know how much compensation these people would demand after they left.

If anything were to happen to Wen Yu, even a hundred production teams wouldn't be enough to compensate him.
