Chapter 159: What Are You, Crazy?
Although Yin Haoyu's attitude hadn't been great, Qin Yan continued to treat their life as a team with utmost seriousness.
To her, it was just like walking the runway in her daily work, from behind the scenes to the front stage, everything relied on the collective effort of teamwork.
Now that she had signed a contract with the show and teamed up with Yin Haoyu, she intended to do her own part well. She might not have any eye-catching performances, but she would do her best not to drag the team down.
She boiled some meat broth. Even though she didn't know whether Yin Haoyu would return for lunch, she made an extra portion just in case.
Ever since accepting this challenge, eating three meals a day was practically unheard of; two meals a day was the norm.
Their team was actually in a relatively good situation. Before this, Jing Hao's team and the team with Shen Jingchuan and his partner often went by on just one meal a day.
Thus, when a freezing, ravenous Yin Haoyu returned to the camp and caught the aroma of the rich meat broth, his attitude immediately shifted.
He took the initiative to start a conversation with Qin Yan: "I went out this morning to search for those small animals from last night. They're hiding pretty deep, so I haven't spotted any trace of them yet.
"Also, about what happened last night, when I was out there alone just now, I gave it some thought. There were indeed things I didn't handle properly, like not listening to your advice. My tone might have been a bit harsh when I spoke to you back then. I hope you won't mind. After all, we still have over ten days of this challenge to complete together."
Qin Yan had always been soft-tempered and had never thought about cutting ties with Yin Haoyu.
She nodded. "You're right. We still have to work together for over ten days. When two people spend time together, differences of opinion are bound to happen. As long as it doesn't affect our survival moving forward, I think it's all fine.
"After you left, I checked our supplies. I feel like the remaining food is enough to last us over ten days. As long as we store it properly, making it to the very end, there will definitely be no problem."
"Great! This time I'll listen to you! In a bit, I'll come check out how to set things up, but let me get something warm in my belly first."
"Mm."
Bullet Comments:
[Told you this team has the highest chance of winning! As long as they don't pull any weird stunts, they can definitely hold out till the end.]
[This guy is alright, apologizing when an apology is due. Recognizing one's mistakes and correcting them is a great virtue.]
[Heh, I don't think he's sincerely apologizing. It looks more like he's just giving himself a way out. From start to finish, he downplayed the mistake he made. I'm still not sold on them.]
[To the person above, even if you're not sold on them, it's useless! The other two teams barely have a shot at winning. Unless these two actively court death, they're definitely going to win.]
[Uh, you seem to have missed the point. This isn't a competition to see who can endure longer, as long as you reach 30 days, you win one million yuan in charitable donations. Even if the other two teams currently don't have much food support, even if they rely on starving through each day, as long as they have the capability to drag themselves to Day 30, that counts too!!]
[Haha, don't say it, don't even say it! From what I can tell, Alex and Shen Jinghe's team is currently adopting that exact strategy.]
Indeed.
Shen Jingchuan was on the verge of going crazy from hunger.
It had been several days! He and Shen Jinghe had been exploring the nearby area for days, but so far, they hadn't seen a single living creature besides each other.
The two brothers had at one point suspected that the magnetic field here was messed up and completely unsuitable for animals to live in!
After yet another empty-handed return, a sudden thought popped into Shen Jingchuan's mind.
He shot Shen Jinghe a solemn look and asked, "Did you remember the flight route when we flew over here?"
Shen Jinghe became instantly alert. "What are you planning to do?"
Shen Jingchuan said with utter seriousness, "I was thinking, if push comes to shove, why don't we go back and beat up that bear?"
"..." Shen Jinghe: "Do you have some kind of misunderstanding about your own strength? Look at our equipment right now. Are you planning to take down that bear with your lip service? If so, I advise you to save your breath, so you have energy left to sleep and dream when it gets dark."
"...If you don't know how to speak, speak less. Why does your mouth have to be so venomous?"
"Born this way. Is this your first day meeting me?"
"Bothered to talk to you."
Shen Jingchuan didn't want to spare Shen Jinghe another glance. Stepping onto his makeshift ice skates, he glided right out onto the lake surface.
He needed an outlet for his irritable mood right now.
The snow here was simply too deep. Without making ice skates to widen the contact surface with the ground, walking on this thick snow was virtually impossible.
When he skated back after doing a lap, Shen Jinghe suddenly walked over to his side.
"This lake should be a closed, circular lake."
Shen Jingchuan looked at Shen Jinghe as if looking at an idiot.
"Are you talking to me? What are you, crazy? Of course I know a lake is a closed circle! Otherwise why would it be called a lake instead of an ocean, river, stream, or creek!"
"...Can't you restrain your hot temper even a little bit?"
"Heh, born this way. Is this your first day meeting me?"
Bullet Comments:
[Vocal! I am literally dying of laughter because of these two! Why is watching them bicker so entertaining?]
[I'd bet that in the entire entertainment industry, Alex is the only one who dares to speak to Shen Jinghe like this.]
[Could this be the legendary love-hate dynamic? There is definitely a story between these two!]
[They keep asking each other if it's their first day meeting each other. I have good reason to suspect they knew each other before coming on the show!]
[Haha, but what Alex said just now wasn't wrong either, Shen Jinghe's sentence really was so random and crazy!]
[I reckon Shen Jinghe wants to relocate. After all, staying here means no food. Even if their willpower can endure the remaining ten-plus days, their bodies won't make it.]
The viewer in the livestream room analyzed it accurately, Shen Jinghe had that exact intention.
He said to Shen Jingchuan, "Then let's make a circuit along the lake shore. No matter what, this lake is a massive source of water; it's impossible for no animals to frequent it.
"We'll explore along the lake. If it really doesn't work out, we can just trace our steps back, at worst, we'll gnaw on tree bark for a few more days. Do you agree?"
"I agree, but we only have one sleeping bag. If we can't find a suitable spot before dark, we'll have to camp on the spot. One sleeping bag can't squeeze both of us inside."
"Just keep the fire going. The sleeping bag is yours."
"For me?" Shen Jingchuan looked at Shen Jinghe. After several seconds, he let out a tchk. "With that weakling physique of yours, you'd better keep the sleeping bag for yourself. In this kind of weather, I wouldn't even mind skinny-dipping."
Shen Jingchuan's bragging immediately made Shen Jinghe burst into a dry laugh.
"I mean, can you not brag so much? What if I chop a hole in the lake surface right now, would you dare jump down and swim?"
"Got too much food and nothing better to do? Chopping ice on the lake for no reason, do you even know how thick that ice is? Why don't you pack up your stuff and get ready to migrate?"
"If you don't have the capability, don't talk big."
"Is bragging against the law?"
Amidst a wave of "Hahaha" flooding the bullet screen, the two brothers strapped on their backpacks.
One behind the other, they walked further and further along the frozen lake surface.
Right at this moment, a user with the display name "Su Su Su" typed out a line of text in the livestream chat:
[Hope the relationship between the two brothers becomes more and more harmonious.]
