CHAPTER 130: CHAPTER 130 MOUTH COVERED

An Yan chuckled and imitated her tone and manner,

"No way! First, you don’t have any clues right now, so your offer to share is just pie in the sky! Why should I exchange my tangible fruits for your pie?"

"Secondly, you actually want to trade a pie for two of my items! May I ask, Miss Bai Zhi, how do you maintain such a thick face?"

Bai Zhi: ???

With cameras following, isn’t it supposed to be ’you scratch my back, I scratch yours’?

How could An Yan disregard the cameras and verbally lash out like that?

Bai Zhi’s expression clearly changed.

She looked like she had been insulted but didn’t want to start a conflict, a picture of restrained tolerance!

In the barrage of comments.

[Wow, this amateur’s got a sharp tongue!]

[I thought she was just a beauty at rest, but it turns out she’s a wild one! I’m thrilled with what she said though; what Bai Zhi just said did sound pretty contrived.]

[I’m a fan now, what’s her name?]

[An Yan!]

Bai Zhi’s fans were furious:

[Is this An Yan sick in the head? How can she be so selfish? The fruit on the tree isn’t hers!]

[Our Zhizhi said she would share the clues once found. How can An Yan accuse her of daydreaming? There are four people in Zhizhi’s team. They could easily find clues by just wandering around, right?]

[Exactly! It’s always the ugly ones who cause trouble. Haha.]

[...]

Jiang Xiaoze frowned unhappily at An Yan,

"If you won’t give us any, that’s fine, but how can you insult people?"

"What insult?"

"You insulted... never mind, I just want to ask, you’re sure you won’t share any fruits with us, right?"

"Yes!"

At that moment, Bai Zhi seemed to have adjusted her emotions and spoke up again, in a soft and gentle manner,

"Miss An, if our words have made you uncomfortable, I apologize on behalf of everyone."

"But I still want to ask you to spare us a few fruits for the time being. We set off early to record the show and haven’t eaten anything from morning till now..."

An Yan looked at her with a smile,

"So because you’re hungry and I just happen to have food, I should give it to you? Miss Bai Zhi, do you realize this is moral blackmail?"

"We can trade something for it, what do you want?"

Bai Zhi opened her backpack, which contained her pretty clothes and shoes.

An Yan didn’t even bother to look:

"I have enough clothes for myself, don’t need any, and as for shoes... oh, Miss Bai Zhi’s sneakers even have hidden wedges? Forget it, I don’t want to sprain my ankle!!"

Bai Zhi: ...

She felt like strangling An Yan on the spot!

But this was a live broadcast, and there were people all around!

Bai Zhi clenched her teeth and bore this round of mockery.

Fu Xiao reached out and grabbed Bai Zhi’s hand,

"Miss Bai Zhi, let’s move on, we’re sure to find some food!"

Jiang Xiaoze, fearing she’d fall behind, quickly said,

"Right, let’s go. From now on, whatever we find, we won’t share it with her! In such a big forest, I refuse to believe this is the only fruit tree."

Jiang Xiaoze turned her head away in arrogance and took the lead in walking away.

In her bag was a snake. If An Yan had been kind to her just then, she might have felt a twinge of mercy.

But now, she had made up her mind to put the snake in An Yan’s tent and scare her to death!

Fu Xiao, delighted, grabbed Bai Zhi’s hand and followed closely behind.

After a few steps, Bai Zhi came to her senses, quickly withdrew her hand from Fu Xiao’s, caught up to Jiang Xiaoze rapidly, and took her hand.

Jiang Xiaoze thought she had finally won Bai Zhi’s friendship and instantly felt more confident.

Seeing this, Teacher Abei could only continue to move forward.

But based on his experience, the likelihood of finding fruit trees ahead was already slim.

And since An Yan was here, it meant that the surrounding area must have been searched by her already. Consequently, the chances of finding any clues were also slim.

Therefore, the best course of action would be to change locations. But since the three guests had already left, he had no choice but to follow.

An Yan, carrying the fruit she had picked, returned to their campsite only to see her tent had disappeared.

She didn’t need to guess to know that it must have been taken by Bai Zhi and the others.

If it weren’t for the recording of the show, An Yan really wanted to chase after them, beat them up, and take her things back.

But this was on a show! Cameras were watching!

Standing there in a daze for a while, she held back her anger and went to check inside the tent, discovering nothing was missing. Actually, there was even an extra package of mosquito repellent inside!

An Yan pursed her lips. After a quick calculation, she knew the repellent had been left by Jiang Xiaoze.

She likely intended to use this repellent to attract mosquitoes, unaware that it was genuinely effective.

It’s just that there were too many mosquitoes in the forest. While it was possible to repel one kind, it wasn’t possible to repel all of them, which was why her own body was covered in bites.

As for why Bai Zhi had fewer bites on her arms, it wasn’t because Bai Zhi possessed any special skills. It was simply due to their different blood types and body odors.

After emerging from the tent, An Yan began to examine the footprints on the ground.

After checking, she sighed,

"It was another team that took our tent. And judging by the footprints, all four of them came."

"When they were choosing their items, none of the three guests picked a tent. Teacher Abei’s equipment should be the same as Teacher Anan’s; he should also have his own tent!"

Teacher Abei, being an outdoor survival broadcaster, probably wouldn’t mind a man and a woman sharing a tent!

The ones who would mind are definitely the two female guests.

But they aren’t very strong, and our tent was pitched rather sturdily. So, it must have been Fu Xiao and Teacher Abei who dismantled and took our tent, right?

The barrage of comments from online viewers began to reply:

[All correct!]

[Sister is so smart. If I hadn’t seen her picking fruit at the time, I’d almost think that she saw everything they did when they were up to no good.]

[So, you’re just going to stand here and grumble about losing a tent?]

[Don’t be weak, sister, go after them and deal with them!]

[Yes, yes, yes, at least get your things back!]

On the screen, as if An Yan could see their comments, she smiled and said,

"I definitely want to get my things back, but if I do, there will surely be people who will scold me!"

"All three of them are celebrities with fans."

"So, I’ve decided to swallow this anger. I hope you won’t scold me!"

Fans of Bai Zhi, Fu Xiao, and Jiang Xiaoze: [...]

It felt like their mouths had been gagged!

The barrage of comments suddenly became much cleaner.

Only the fans of Mo Shiyan and Meng Rui were cheerfully commenting,

[I really like this girl!]

[Brother Shiyan has good taste; although this girl is an amateur, she’s clear-headed and logical! She’s really great as a teammate!]

[...]

On the screen, An Yan was still speaking,

"I’ll take a bold guess, haha, the idea of stealing the tent definitely wasn’t Miss Bai Zhi’s. After all, Miss Bai Zhi, being a lady from a prominent family, elegant and dignified, wouldn’t do something that would ruin her own image."

"So... it must have been either Fu Xiao or Jiang Xiaoze who came up with the idea, right?"
