CHAPTER 782: CHAPTER 772: FOLLOWING SISTER XI LEADS TO BOUNTY

The livestream chat is way more lively and excited than the scene itself.

[Look, a speedboat!]

[Is it bringing the mystery guest?]

[Although the show’s equipment isn’t really up to par, that figure on the deck instantly reminded me of someone.]

[No way, I thought of it too... could it really be Jiang Lingxi?]

[Your Majesty actually joined the filming for the third season, it’s like a dream back to the first season, boohoohoo.]

[And this time, without that saintly damsel Jiang Xiyu, it feels so much better.]

[But now there’s a new liability, Chen Keyun 23333]

[As long as Chen Keyun doesn’t go into the sea, they’d totally outdo Jiang Xiyu.]

[But looking at Chen Keyun’s expression, she seems completely in disbelief that Jiang Lingxi is the mystery guest.]

[I saw Jiang Kaiyuan’s face next to her, guessing he’s laughing his head off inside: yay, I can lie back and win again, so happy!]

[Jiang Junior rises again!]

...

The mystery guest finally appears in the livestream of "Survival Third Season", even before the speedboat reaches the shore.

The hashtag #SurvivalThirdSeasonMysteryGuestJiangLingxi# quickly trends as shocked viewers make it a hot topic.

Everyone in the entertainment circle: "..."

They’re sick of saying they’re envious, jealous, and hateful!

The general response of the people on the shore is also one of surprise and joy.

The people who worked with Jiang Lingxi back in the first season all had a good impression of her, especially Jiang Kaiyuan.

He’s waving wildly in the direction of the yacht.

When the yacht finally docks, he eagerly approaches her, "Sister Lingxi, the director kept this such a secret from me!"

Jiang Lingxi gets off the boat and gives him a familiar pat on the shoulder, while glancing at the other guests as she walks towards the shore.

And she catches Chen Keyun’s somewhat stunned gaze.

She raises an eyebrow, could it be disbelief that she actually came?

Chen Keyun snaps back to reality as she meets Jiang Lingxi’s gaze.

Even if it was hard to believe, with her standing there in front of her, she had to believe now.

Jiang Lingxi really left director Feng’s "Gale" set to join them in shooting the survival show!

What’s going through her mind, really?

Chen Keyun finds she just can’t wrap her head around Jiang Lingxi’s line of thinking.

Is it really necessary to be this surprising?

Can’t she just not be this unexpected, geez!

The key thing is that seeing Jiang Lingxi now can’t help but remind her of being utterly overshadowed by her during closed training in her own professional field, which led to losing her role.

Her whole mood takes a plunge instantly.

But Jiang Lingxi only gave her a glance before looking away.

She moves into the group of guests, first shaking hands with Lin Jing, then giving Xu Ai a hug, and finally greeting Zhou Yi.

Chen Keyun: "..."

So turns out she’s just the newbie here!

Jiang Lingxi finally gets to Chen Keyun, "Ms. Chen, sorry to keep you waiting."

Facing Jiang Lingxi and the cameras behind her, Chen Keyun feels her scalp tingling as she forces a smile, "Not, not that long."

[Why does it feel like Chen Keyun seems a bit nervous facing Jiang Lingxi, is it just my imagination?]

[Probably not, because I get the same feeling.]

[Have they worked together before?]

This question is asked by Jiang Kaiyuan, who also noticed and is known for his straightforwardness.

"Sister Lingxi, do you know Ms. Chen?"

Chen Keyun’s actions are a bit stiff as she nods.

More than just know, they trained together for a month.

If we strictly talk about who spent the most time together, she and Jiang Lingxi would be number one.

But the experience is practically a nightmare, she would rather not talk about it at all!

Jiang Lingxi doesn’t intend to elaborate on it either, and simply nods along, "Yes, we know each other."

Jiang Kaiyuan nods with sudden understanding and sensibly doesn’t ask further questions.

Just then, Li Shuo announces that all the guests have arrived, which means this season’s island survival is officially starting.

"For this season, some of the guests have participated in the first season, some in both seasons, and some are joining for the first time. So, this third season has some rules that are slightly different from the previous ones."

However, although the rules have slight changes, the theme of survival remains unchanged.

This time, they not only have to survive on this island with their own hands for five days but also have to explore the island as much as possible during these five days.

It’s like a preliminary exploration for the island’s later development.

Following the usual practice from the previous two seasons, after selecting the two tools they need, they all, along with their respective cameramen, plunge into the forest ahead.

It’s almost noon, and the immediate task is to find something to eat so that they have the strength for the exploration later.

Without thinking, Jiang Kaiyuan follows Jiang Lingxi with his tools, boldly saying to the camera, "Following Sister Lingxi means getting meat to eat."

Jiang Lingxi: "..."

After not seeing him for a while, his skin has really gotten thicker.

But she doesn’t say anything, having a sidekick isn’t a bad deal.

Chen Keyun turns to look at Jiang Lingxi and Jiang Kaiyuan’s figures, further away Xu Ai and Zhou Yi team up, Lin Jing goes solo.

She grits her teeth and chooses the opposite direction to Jiang Lingxi.

It’s unexpected that Jiang Lingxi would join "Survival Third Season," but since it’s now a reality, she will try her best to avoid running into her over the five days; she would feel freer that way.

However, on an island not that large, not wanting to meet doesn’t guarantee not meeting.

Though confident in her physical condition, surviving takes more than just good fitness; by the evening, without finding enough food, she is famished and can’t resist following the alluring smell of food wafting through the air.

And then she spots, placed between Jiang Lingxi and Jiang Kaiyuan, a bubbling creamy soup cooking over the fire, unable to tear her eyes away.

"Gurgle!"

Chen Keyun covers her stomach as her face instantly flushes red.

Stomach grumbling isn’t terrifying, but in front of Jiang Lingxi...

She manages to overcome her embarrassment but can’t bring herself to eat for free, "I-I picked some mushrooms, but I don’t know if they’re edible..."

Jiang Lingxi looks at the mushrooms skewered on a branch in front of her, "They’re edible."

"Can I trade them for a bowl of soup then?"

The mushrooms are reasonably clean, Jiang Lingxi tears them apart and throws them in the pot, making the already delicious soup even richer.

Once cooked, Chen Keyun receives a bowl of soup made from leaves.

It even has some chunks of meat.

After taking a bite, she mutters, "This meat is so tender, what kind of meat is it?"

Jiang Lingxi points to the snake skin tied up on a branch next to them.

"Pfft!"

She almost spits it out but is stopped by Jiang Lingxi, who quickly holds her mouth mustering a serious expression.

"Don’t spit it out, swallow it."

Chen Keyun: "..."

[Oh wow, shouldn’t have asked.]

[It’s better knowing nothing!]

[Chen Keyun: Mom, this person is terrifying!]

[Still can’t get over the scene of this woman skinning the snake savagely.]

[If Chen Keyun knew Jiang Lingxi not only skinned the snake but also pinched her mouth, would she break down on the spot?]

[Jiang Lingxi: I worked so hard to make this, I dare anyone to waste it!]
