Chapter 15

Bai Lin looked around and said, “We don’t have enough people here. What about you send someone over to my side?”

This proposal was actually what Bai Xi’s group wanted.

The musically inclined family, the game designer family, and Bai Xi’s cla.s.smate—Jin Ran and her family, were all families of three. All four families added up to 12 people.

There were many of them, but most of them were from rich families who had never done any heavy work. Even with the guidance of the production staff, their efficiency was not very high.

They ate a lot, and the consumption of their items was also high. For example, there was not much left of the sunblock extracted from the Coral Mushrooms. One less person would reduce the burden even if just a little.

Bai Xi lowered her eyes, a dim light flickering in them.

If she went to Bai Lin’s team, she would be able to get close to Zhou Guang and Yan Ruo. She could take the opportunity to show off her strength then and her popularity would definitely increase.

However, there was indeed nothing there. The props there were not as complete as they had here, and she might have to suffer a lot if she went over.

She was already exhausted from just looking for cards in the forest today. If she went to a team with fewer people, she would have more work to do.

Bai Xi was conflicted.

Bai Lin gave them plenty of time to think. She used one point to exchange for condiments and began to slowly grill the fish and crabs.

The fish and crabs were caught from the river. Although they were small, they were very delicious. With the addition of seasoning, the burst of fragrance was carried by the wind all the way to the other side.

“Grr… Grr…”

Someone’s stomach growled.

They had lived on dry biscuits and cold water for the entire day.

Instantly, they became irritable.

Bai Shao spoke up, “We can’t agree to this. It’s her duty to show the steps to solve the question. Why should she ask us for benefits?”

“But if she can really solve it,” Jin Ran said hesitantly, “What we’re doing is equivalent to slander.”

Bai Xi was annoyed by Jin Ran’s cowardly behavior, but she still appeared very gentle. “Xiao Ran, it’s okay. I believe that jiejie will understand what we are doing.”

Fan Zhi’s expression was still indignant. Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, his small eyes lit up. “This team arrangement is only for these seven days. It doesn’t matter even if one person is sent over. Besides, it’ll probably be much more convenient if we have our people in Bai Lin’s team.”

Of course, it was also more convenient to cause trouble.

Everyone understood what he was implying.

“Then who should we choose?”

Everyone fell silent.

Bai Lin placed the grilled fish on banana leaves and quickly picked out the fish bones with a sharpened branch.

The whole fish looked as if it had been cut up by a medical student on the operating theater as the fish bones were very cleanly picked out.

She did not look like she was going to eat it herself.

Zhou Guang and Yan Ruo both looked at the fish.

They were not actually hungry.

During the process of looking for cards with Bai Lin, the girl had found them a lot of delicious wild fruits to fill their stomachs. They were now half-full.

It was just that the distribution of this fish meant Bai Lin’s preference.

The flame was reflected in Yan Ruo’s eyes. He turned his head to look at her with his hand supporting his chin. His jawline was chiseled and sharp while his deep eyes were wistful.

“Xiao Lin.” His voice was low and s.e.xy as he looked at Bai Lin. Although he did not say anything, his words were hidden in his amorous eyes.

Zhou Guang was not to be outdone either. He pitifully softened his voice and tugged at the corner of her clothes, gently shaking it. “Meimei, feed me. I’m hungry.”

Bai Lin held the grilled fish and was caught between the two of them.

[Help, I’m choking. It’s so hard to choose. I feel like I’m going against my conscience no matter which one I choose!]

[I’m a fan of Zhou-ge, but it’s really hard to reject Yan Ruo like this~]

[I just came in, so I don’t really understand. Are they s.n.a.t.c.hing the fish or fighting for favor?]

Millions of people in the livestream channel were waiting for Bai Lin to make her choice.

Bai Lin cut the fish open from the abdomen, divided it into two, and placed them separately on the banana leaves.

“Eat up.” She did not notice the strange atmosphere at all. She got up and looked at the other side. “Eat slowly, I’ll go over there and take a look.”

Zhou Guang held the fish in his hands and threatened Yan Ruo as he ate.

“Listen well, Yan Ruo,” he said seriously, “I’m the only brother my sister likes the most. Don’t even think about replacing me.”

Yan Ruo casually nodded, “Sure.”

Zhou Guang was skeptical. “Really? You’re so agreeable?”

Yan Ruo did not eat the fish. Instead, he picked out the fish bones like Bai Lin and said, “Of course. I swear that you’ll always be Xiao Lin’s favorite brother.”

The last word, “brother”, was said with great emphasis.

“We’ve already decided.” As the representative, Lin Shu came to negotiate with Bai Lin. “However, we have another term.”

“Go on,” Bai Lin replied.

“We want half of the 50 points you’ve obtained!”
