They sat around the bonfire. No matter how they persuaded Bai Shao, he did not eat, so they had to give up.
The snake was enough for the six of them to share, and there were even some left. They did not dare to carry it with them, afraid that the snakes would smell it, and had to throw it into the small river next to them.
The river flowed, and the snake corpse quickly disappeared.
They ate and drank to their heart’s content, and the team’s atmosphere became more harmonious.
After being disturbed by the snakes that night, they did not feel sleepy, so they gathered together to chat.
“Xiao Xi, I heard that you accepted a business deal with high-end luxury brand, Duo Er? That’s the top three of the world’s top ten jewelry brands, and those who can endorse it are all top-tier celebrities, is it true?”
Although Bai Xi was also a celebrity, she was only famous within the country.
The spokesperson for Duo Er this season needed to show the qualities of courage and perseverance. There was a high chance that the stars participating in Traveler would be chosen.
She had talked to someone before that if she could successfully complete all the challenges of Traveler, she would be the spokesperson.
Bai Xi smiled subtly. “Yes, I’ll sign the contract with them after the show ends.”
“Then wouldn’t Xiao Xi be at the same level as Zhou Guang and Yan Ruo?” Zhao Yuan was pleased. “You’re indeed my daughter. It hasn’t been long since you debuted, and you’re already as good as Best Actor Yan and Greatest Singer Zhou. I’m proud of you.”
Song Yun looked at Bai Xi with admiration. “Xixi-jiejie, you’re my idol!”
Li Yan smiled and secretly adjusted his position, sitting closer to her. Only a woman like her was worthy of him.
[I’m dying of laughter. Is Bai Xi worthy of being placed next to Yan Ruo and Zhou Guang? Even if she’s selected, she’d only be a temporary regional spokesperson. Yan Ruo and Zhou Guang are permanent representatives! She actually dares to acknowledge the claim. How shameless.]
[I was wondering why Bai Xi’s been so persistent. It turns out that she has a goal.]
[To those who don’t understand, being a temporary spokesperson doesn’t mean that she’s very good. It only proves that she fits the values of the new season’s promotion. The value of a permanent endorsement is the high one. This means that the brand has 100% trust in the celebrity. Ability, appearance, and character are all indispensable. There are only five permanent endorsements in the world.]
[I understand, but I feel that any brand with a brain wouldn’t choose her after seeing Bai Xi’s performance, right? If they really choose her, won’t they be ruining their own reputation?]
[I think so too. Let’s see what Duo Er has to say.]
[Insider news: Duo Er wants to sign Bai Lin. And it’s not a temporary contract, but a permanent one.]
[Hahahaha, yay! I’ll go outside and set off firecrackers now!]
[My Lin-jie deserves a top-notch endorsement!]
[Those they’ve been looking for were all from the entertainment industry.
Lin-jie’s the first regular person. Is this news reliable?]
[90%. But I don’t think Lin-jie will agree to it since she’s keeps a low profile.] [It’s another curious day about Bai Lin’s background.]
After chatting, they felt sleepy. They packed up and reluctantly left the soft and comfortable tree nests to rest at a place farther away.
They were already very cautious, thinking that the matter with the snake was over. However, in the journey that followed, the frequent appearances of pythons made them tense and exhausted.
Each of the snake was bigger than the female snake that they had eaten. They could only run away if they encountered one. After running far away, they would encounter other snakes again.
The strange thing was that they only attacked those who had eaten the snake meat that night. Everyone except Bai Shao had bite marks on their bodies.
Fortunately, the pythons were not poisonous. Otherwise, they would not be able to survive even if they had hundreds of lives.
Although the snakes were not poisonous, they could not withstand such a concentrated attack either. Bai Xi leaned on Zhao Yuan. There was not much ointment left from what Bai Shao and Song Yun had gotten and used the other day. After Bai Xi applied the last bit, there was no more left.
Bai Xi looked at the bloodied holes on her arms and thought of the experience of fleeing everywhere these days. Her heart was filled with frustration.
That damned Fang Rong! If it was not for her, they would not be in such a sorry state!
As the only one who could still move, Bai Shao took the initiative to take responsibility and picked some fruits to share with everyone.
Song Yun took a bite, and his face was wrinkled from the sourness. He swallowed it with great effort and said darkly, “We should look for Fang Rong. She was the one who started all this. She should take some responsibility for our misery.”
“I told you not to eat the snake that day, but you didn’t listen,” Bai Shao said in a muffled voice..
