After Reborn, I Became the Bigshots' Beloved novel Chapter 439

Chapter 439: Chapter 439: What are you guys eating?!

Hearing this, everyone else gathered around.

Looking down, they saw that what Lu Youming was holding in his hand was a palm-sized piece of yellowed parchment, damp as if it had been soaked by the dew in the grass.

Upon closer inspection, the paper actually had marked locations and routes drawn in black lines.

Lan Yu’s eyes widened in realization: "...Holy crap, could this be a fragment of the treasure map we’re supposed to collect? Where did you find it?"

"It was stuck to the inner lining of this travel bag. It must’ve been there all along,"

Lu Youming examined the fragment and then said, "This should be a map fragment, because the starting point is exactly the place where we landed earlier today."

Following the direction Lu Youming pointed, the others also saw the words "sea" and "coast" written on it.

With this, the black line on the paper was undoubtedly the path to finding the treasure.

The next map fragment was likely near the endpoint marked on this piece, and the final fragment would point to the treasure’s location.

"Oh my god, not only did we suddenly acquire so many supplies and food, but before we even started looking for the treasure map fragments, one just fell into our laps,"

Lan Yu glanced at the brown bear and joked, "Shengsheng, did you save this bear’s life in the past? It dragged this bag over just to return the favor."

Lu Sheng was just as surprised.

She wasn’t someone who considered herself particularly lucky, but encountering this bear seemed like an exception.

At that moment, the brown bear softly nudged its head over. Lu Sheng instinctively raised her hand to touch its ears and head.

Clearly a wild beast with a massive and intimidating size, the brown bear seemed more like an obedient dog next to the girl, rubbing its head contentedly against her palm.

Lan Yu could not help but blurt out, "Honestly, this is the first time I’ve ever seen a wild brown bear act so close to humans. It’s like it’s treating you as its master."

Lan Yu was astonished, and the viewers watching online were equally shocked.

After all, they had witnessed the entire process of the bear’s arrival. Could the bear have somehow fallen in love with Lu Sheng at first sight?

"Let’s leave sorting the supplies for tomorrow," Lu Sheng suggested. "It’s late; let’s get some rest first."

"Shengsheng, you and Lan Yu go get some sleep. We three will take turns keeping watch," You Ye immediately offered.

But just as You Ye finished speaking, the brown bear huffed twice, then nudged Lu Sheng’s hand with its head and casually walked over to sit down outside the plastic wrap shelter’s entrance.

Lan Yu was a bit dumbfounded: "So what’s it trying to do now?"

"It’s saying it will stand guard for us so we can sleep," Lu Sheng interpreted.

Lu Sheng wasn’t sure why she could instantly understand the bear’s intentions, but she simply did.

Everyone exchanged glances between the bear, the bag it had brought, and the map fragment, inexplicably feeling a sense of trust.

But now, with the tent, they could camp wherever they stopped. It was a huge help.

"Even though we have other food now, I’ll still prepare and roast these rabbits. You probably haven’t had wild game like this before," Lu Sheng said. "As for the rest, we can cook a curry beef dish, a pot of tomato egg soup, and heat up some rice boxes."

Instant noodles were digested quickly, and everyone was starving by now.

Just hearing the names of roasted rabbit, curry beef, and tomato egg soup made their stomachs growl in anticipation.

Lan Yu went to gather firewood, Han Jing chopped it, and You Ming set up two fire pits on level ground. Meanwhile, You Ye arranged the dining table and helped Lu Sheng prepare—the entire group was busy with tasks.

With no pressing worries about supplies or food, and already having found their first map fragment, everyone felt much more at ease. It almost felt as though they were out here for a camping trip instead of survival.

Seated by the fire, Lu Sheng first singed off the fur on the rabbits, deftly removing all of it with skilled precision.

Next, she gutted them, cleaned them thoroughly with water, brushed them with a mix of oil and seasonings, and finally placed them on the fire to roast.

Soon, the rabbits began sizzling and releasing an irresistible aroma. Even Lan Yu, busy gathering firewood nearby, could smell it, her mouth watering at the scent.

What could be better than enjoying freshly roasted wild rabbit on a deserted island?

Lan Yu thought to herself that Lu Sheng was nothing short of a godsend—having Shengsheng around made it seem like every problem could be solved effortlessly.

When the rabbits were done roasting and laid out on the table, the curry beef and tomato egg soup were also ready. The dining table was filled with steaming, fragrant dishes, making everyone’s mouth water.

But just as they sat down, a voice filled with anger and accusation suddenly called out from a distance—"Lu Sheng! What are you eating?!"
