Chapter 2 The Second Island
The second island was much larger than the first, as Bai Suxiang had learned before.
However, at that time, the open, or rather, the allowed walking spaces for them were limited, and many places could not be visited.
Now, because the recruitment had just ended, many previously designated areas were temporarily revoked.
There was no longer a distinction between blue and green zones.
Of course, many people who had been on the island were taken away.
There was no sign of anything amiss.
Bai Suxiang wandered around several places without any clue.
To confirm the place where she had seen Bai Xiaoxiao that day, she specifically went to the floating bridge connecting the first and second islands to look.
Following the approximate range, she searched for the place based on her intuition.
Yu Xiaoman and Wang Xiaohong followed her closely, as if specially trained, without arousing Bai Suxiang's suspicion.
But Liu Sandao saw their every move.
Knowing Bai Suxiang's purpose in looking for Bai Xiaoxiao, as an immortal, he naturally had the ability to find her instantly.
But everyone had their own destiny, and he couldn't interfere casually.
Just as Bai Suxiang passed a fork in the road, there was a large rock as tall as a person next to it.
Liu Sandao immediately grabbed Bai Suxiang.
Before Bai Suxiang could even utter "Ah," Liu Sandao covered her mouth.
She looked closely and saw it was Liu Sandao, and her heart was relieved.
Just as she was about to ask, "Why are you here?" Liu Sandao said, "Go out now, walk back along the road you just came. Come back again after a while!"
Bai Suxiang didn't understand why she had to do this, but she nodded.
She trusted Liu Sandao one hundred percent. There must be some new development, otherwise he wouldn't be so secretive.
Turning around the giant rock, she walked back about four or five steps and saw Yu Xiaoman and Wang Xiaohong hurrying over.
"Why are you here? Where are you going?"
Bai Suxiang asked.
"We're fine, just wandering around. What a coincidence, you're here too."
Yu Xiaoman said calmly.
Although the path was not wide, there were no other connecting roads around. Bai Suxiang didn't know how long it took her to reach the place where the giant rock was.
They must have been following her all along, otherwise they wouldn't have coincidentally come here.
No wonder Liu Sandao told her to turn back, he knew they were tracking her.
"Oh, I see. I have something to do and need to go back. You guys enjoy your walk!"
Bai Suxiang said, bypassed Yu Xiaoman and Wang Xiaohong, and walked directly back along the path.
Yu Xiaoman followed Bai Suxiang because she suspected that Bai Suxiang had some ulterior motive for coming to the island.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have brought anything out during the assessment.
As for Wang Xiaohong, she simply felt a special connection with Yu Xiaoman. After just a few words, they felt like they had found soulmates.
Perhaps this was fate.
Bai Suxiang had planned to expose Yu Xiaoman's tracking and then return at an opportune moment, but unexpectedly, she received a call from Aunt Hong midway, asking her to rush back for training.
This foiled her original plan.
The training room was located at the highest point of the second island, and from the window, the entire first and second islands could be seen at a glance.
However, it was a bit regrettable that from above, the houses on the island were hard to distinguish.
Because their designs were too similar.
"The training this time will be much stricter than before, and it's in preparation for entering the Red Island in the future! Of course, I need to say something unpleasant upfront."
Aunt Hong's tone became much more serious, as if announcing a major decision.
"A million-year salary is easy to earn, but also easy to lose. On Red Island, even the slightest mistake is not allowed! Otherwise, your life will be ruined here!"
The three girls held their breath, listening intently.
They had gone through layers of selection, and faced with training and assessment, they no longer felt the initial nervousness and unease.
In a deeper sense, it was just the same game with slightly changed rules.
Aunt Hong's training was systematic, and besides the basic etiquette for receiving high-level guests, she also briefly introduced the types of guests received on Red Island.
The entire "Peach Blossom Spring" was exclusively for receiving guests.
Except for the first island, which was open to ordinary tourists, the second island and Red Island were not open to the public.
Red Island, in particular, was only open to VIP-level guests of the company.
And VIP-level guests were still divided into several tiers.
The most important point was that once you entered Red Island, everything was free, with no time or usage limits.
Just hearing about it made it sound like a paradise.
The training they three girls received was only preparation for landing on Red Island. According to Aunt Hong, entering Red Island also depended on the timing.
If there were no new guests to receive, they had to stay on the second island.
Even more cruelly, you had to succeed on your first attempt on Red Island, and a guest had to be satisfied with your service. Otherwise, you would be sent back to the second island, and you would have to wait for another opportunity to enter again.
But this opportunity could be as short as three months, or as long as a year or a half.
The girls' youth was limited. If after two or three years, they still had no chance to land on Red Island, then they would basically have no hope for the rest of their lives.
There were plenty of young girls, especially those who came by reputation. They were like waves in the ocean, one after another.
There was no chance for you to start over.
Of course, there would be some reception work on the second island. As long as you were willing, you could still earn some money to support yourself.
However, one condition was to ensure that your integrity was not compromised. Otherwise, you would never be able to enter Red Island.
Bai Suxiang never expected that in today's society, there was still such a place that valued a girl's reputation so highly.
Of course, from another perspective, it urged girls to maintain their chastity.
After the training, Bai Suxiang found an opportunity to slip away.
Fearing that Yu Xiaoman and the others would continue to follow her, she deliberately took a long detour, made sure they were not following, and then headed towards the giant rock that was a necessary path.
She walked along the path, all the way up.
She arrived in front of a row of dense small houses, which was similar to the layout of the first island.
They were convenient living quarters for the girls.
Aunt Hong had introduced that the living quarters for men and women working on the island were separate.
Because there were fewer men working on the island, their living quarters did not take up much space.
Aunt Hong did not elaborate on the reasons.
However, in terms of reception, women were the main body of the "Peach Blossom Spring" and the source of its charm.
Just as Bai Suxiang was searching from window to window, the door of a room opened.
"Bang!"
With a dull thud, a girl came out.
