Chapter 96: Chapter 95 Unexpectedly, Heâs So Irritable Chapter 96: Chapter 95 Unexpectedly, Heâs So Irritable Just as she read out the sentence, Qin Yan patted Wenyan on the arm to point her attention forward.
âYanyan, look, itâs like summoning whatever we think of! Over there it seems like some plastic buckets are drifting towards us.â
âThatâs true, even the sea breeze is on our side, the direction is straight at us!â
After getting into the water, the two walked a short distance and quickly retrieved the plastic bucket that was floating on the sea.
They were several transparent plastic buckets tied together, with the logo of some soy oil brand still stuck to them, and with some golden oil stains inside, more or less.
You could tell at a glance they were edible.
Wenyan even doubted it, âCould this be arranged by the show crew? Itâs really getting whatever we think of.â
To pick up something randomly would normally worry them about its safety and hygiene, yet here they were directly provided with several emptied edible oil buckets.
Each bucket had a volume of ten liters and even had handles, especially convenient for carrying water.
But Qin Yan didnât see it that way, âIn fact, thereâs a lot of trash in the ocean now, so itâs not surprising to see a few floating plastic buckets. Itâs good that we found them; when the shoot ends, we can take this trash away. In a bit, after we wash these buckets clean, we can go get water.â
âGood, butâŠâ Wenyan looked up at the sun overhead, then at the drift bottle in her hand.
She said, âI plan to take this bottle to Alex first. While the sunlight is still relatively strong, we might be able to start a fire by concentrating light with the bottom of this bottle.â
âThe bottle bottom is a concave lens, right? Iâve long returned my physics knowledge to my teacher. Go ahead, and Iâll clean the buckets.â
âIâll be right back!â
Wenyan, holding the drift bottle, sprinted across the beach towards another spot.
She thought to herself that she finally had a chance to speak with Shen Jingchuan alone.
However, what she didnât know was, the moment she appeared within the filming range of Shen Jingchuanâs group, the audiences in the live stream started to sneer and mock.
âHaha, here comes another green tea [bitch]â
âSame old trick, and sheâs even carrying a bottle in her handâ
âSeriously, Iâve had enough, these women are really shameless doing anything to become famous these daysâ
âAlex is newer than any of them, he hasnât even debuted, with barely any legit fans, and still, theyâre trying to ride his coattails, really sick!â
âHey you in front! Who said our Alex doesnât have legitimate fans, Iâve been his fan for five years, following him since his competition daysâ
âExactly, Iâm a fan of my hubby, though I only became one today, but Iâve decided, as long as this show doesnât get cut, I will come watch my hubby every dayâ
âRight, as long as hubby doesnât disappoint, we will support him foreverâ
There were also viewers who had just tuned into the live stream and were confused.
âWhatâs going on? Did Wenyan violate some heavenly law, why is she being attacked just for bringing a bottle over. Does this sister attract hate naturally?â
âHaha, just wait and see, sheâs definitely bringing the bottle to get close to Alexâ
âWhat do you mean?â
âYou came late. If you had been here five minutes earlier, you would understand.â
â
Five minutes earlier.
Min Xiasha found Shen Jingchuan holding a wine bottle.
Unlike the other guests, who had handed over their phones to the production team before the official start of the show, she secretly kept a phone to stay in contact with her agent.
Though she couldnât see the live streaming data while filming, her agent and assistant could.
Her team knew how to create buzz and increase exposure.
For fame, for traffic, they would resort to any means necessary.
Min Xiasha had already discussed with her manager to simply establish a persona of being a delicate, drama-queen, princess-syndrome character on the show, deliberately taking the route of notorious fame.
So, after Jing Hao and others finished chopping down trees, she lied about needing to go relieve herself.
But in reality, she met secretly with her manager.
Her manager gave her an empty wine bottle and told her to take it to Alex.
Going to the most popular live broadcast room would increase her exposure and also tie her to the super-popular guest.
So, a few minutes ago, Min Xiasha took that empty wine bottle and actively sought out Shen JingchuanâŠ
âHi Alex, I just found an empty wine bottle in the woods. I thought the bottom of this bottle could help you make fire, so I brought it over. Here, take it.â
Shen Jingchuan hadnât ruled out the principle of using a concave lens to focus light for starting a fire, but he hadnât found any glass bottles when he searched around this stretch of coastline earlier.
He didnât expect to actually find one in the wilderness of the island! That was some dumb luck!
At the time, Shen Jingchuan didnât stand on ceremony with Min Xiashaâ he thanked her and took the wine bottle from her hand.
After getting the bottle, he planned to find a rock to smash it and take out the concave lens part from the bottom.
But Min Xiasha stood in his way, not budging an inch.
In such a wide area, wherever he moved, Min Xiasha moved.
Even a blind man could tell she was doing it on purpose!
Since Shen Jingchuan already had a poor impression of Min Xiasha, he said disdainfully, âYou can move aside.â
Of course, Min Xiasha wouldnât just move aside, but instead asked with a smile if she could be of any help.
Shen Jingchuan really couldnât stand the way Min Xiasha spoke with her affected voice.
His temper flared, and he mocked her, âDid you lose your memory, or have you forgotten what happened on the plane?â
With those words, the audience in the live broadcast smelled a whiff of gossip.
âHoly shit, what happened on the plane? Ahhh, what did we miss?â
âIâm signing a bloody petition for the production team to release the unaired parts from the plane.â
âIt mustâve been thrilling!â
âDefinitely, just look at Min Xiashaâs expression, and youâll know.â
Indeed, Shen Jingchuanâs questioning caused Min Xiashaâs face to fluctuate between white and red.
However, she quickly adjusted herself and whispered a few words to Shen Jingchuan.
At this moment, the live broadcast audience couldnât hear her voice, and they were practically dying of curiosity.
Unexpectedly, in the next second, Shen Jingchuan ruthlessly exposed Min Xiasha.
âPlease sort it out, Iâm not close to you, and Iâm not obliged to give you face. Also, this is a group activity, youâd better not slack off.â
When Shen Jingchuan spoke these words, contempt was practically written all over his face.
Min Xiasha immediately started crying.
âHow can you be like this? I merely came to offer help out of kindness, and even if you donât appreciate it or give me face, how can you say such things about me? When did I ever slack off? Which eye of yours saw me and wronged me?â
âOh, the guilty party files the suit first, huh? You know exactly what youâre up to,â Shen Jingchuan said, frustrated, while Min Xiashaâs crying voice was driving him to the brink of a headache.
He was already irritated enough due to the inability to start a fire, and now he was even more on edge!
âCan you shut up?! If you want to cry, roll home and cry. Take your stuff and go. I can start a fire perfectly well without you.â
âFine, take it then!â Min Xiasha took back the bottle and ran off crying.
Immediately, the chat exploded with messages, and many people started criticizing Shen Jingchuan.
âDamn, no one told me Alex could be so irritable; heâs showing absolutely no patience with Min Xiasha, none of the gentlemanly demeanor, not rational at all. How could he give the bottle back to Min Xiashaâ
