No one paid attention to Beth's departure.
It wasn't until a long time had passed—perhaps half an hour—that the group of girls began to sense something was wrong.
So, the three girls who were close to Shangguan Xi asked the girl who was close to Beth, "Hey, where exactly did Beth go? Why isn't she back yet? Does she not know that if we don't catch 100 fish today, we'll be punished?"
"Yeah, exactly. Is she trying to get us punished? Why isn't she back at work yet?"
The girl who was close to Beth heard this and her face filled with panic. "Didn't she say she'd gone to the restroom? Maybe she's still feeling unwell… Ah! The Island Master is here! Look, the Island Master is here..."
At the sudden announcement from the girl who was close to Beth, the other girls jumped in fright and quickly turned their heads to look.
Sure enough, they soon saw, on the beach ahead, an elegant man walking in their direction, his handsome appearance akin to that of a prince.
