[Wow, I now know the diversity of human species. How is this woman so thick-skinned?]
[She’s been in Bai Xi’s team the whole time and hasn’t contributed to Bai Lin’s side at all. My Lin-jie woke her up this morning and she was yelled at. I was so angry that I wanted to rush into the screen and slap her twice.]
[Best Actor, Greatest Singer and that little handsome guy named Lin Sen didn’t help much but at least they didn’t cause trouble for Lin-jie. They even know how to encourage Lin-je and give her moral support. What does this old witch know? She only knows how to despise our Lin-jie and she doesn’t even see if she’s worthy to do that.]
[Aren’t you people above a little too emotional? I’ll say this first, I’m not a fan of anyone. I have a good impression of Bai Lin. But I think that since everyone is hungry and they don’t lack food, why can’t they share it with others? That’s a little selfish.]
[That’s right. I thought I was the only one who was uncomfortable with Bai Lin’s behavior. There’s so much food. How can four people finish it? It’d be a waste.]
[Don’t pretend to be neutral. They’re spending their own points. Besides, this is Traveler, an adventure and survival show. Whether they can live well or not depends on their own ability.]
[I think those people are just jealous. Don’t be bothered with them. Let them stay jealous.]
When Zhao Yuan brought Bai Xi and Bai Shao to the dining table, Yan Ruo was peeling crabs for Bai Lin.
The steamed crab retained the original taste of the crab, and the crab roe was plump and looked extremely delicious.
Yan Ruffs crab-peeling skills were excellent. There was almost nothing left on the crab’s shell as the white and tender crab meat and plump crab roe were all on Bai Lin’s plate.
Zhao Yuan usually had fine delicacies at home, but during these days in Traveler, she did not get to eat or dress well. The only full meal she had was at the last mission station.
She was simply craving.
There were many chairs at the station. She casually pulled one over and beckoned for Bai Shao and Bai Xi to sit down.
Bai Lin paused. “What are you doing?”
Zhao Yuan picked up the chopsticks to take a piece of mushroom. “Eating. You’re such an insensible child. Everyone hasn’t eaten yet, and you didn’t even invite us.”
“Here, Xiao Xi. This stewed pig trotter is nourishing. You’ve been exposed to the wind and sun these past few days, so you need to nourish your body.”
Not only did Zhao Yuan eat by herself, she also went around picking food for others.
“Xiao Shao, you’ve been exercising a lot recently. Have more ribs.”
Bai Lin had thought that she had seen enough, but Zhao Yuan’s actions told her that the weirdos in the world were far more ridiculous than she had imagined.
She could not hold it in and laughed. “What are you? Freeloading just as you wish?”
Anyone with a bit of dignity would have blushed by now, but not Zhao Yuan. “I’m your mother.” Zhao Yuan’s mouth did not stop. “Besides, even if you don’t treat me as your mother, I’m still your team member. You can’t stop me.”
Lin Sen was so disgusted that he could not eat anymore. He put down his chopsticks and frowned. “Auntie, you should restrain yourself a little. We’ll still be meeting each other after we leave the show. What will the others think of you when this is how you act here?”
Zhao Yuan’s heart skipped a beat when she heard what he said, and her chopsticks that had been fetching food slowed down.
Logically speaking, it was indeed not quite decent. She was a rich wife from a wealthy family, but she was actually fighting for food with the others.
Bai Xi picked up some food for Zhao Yuan and looked at Lin Sen without any aggression. She smiled and said, “The production team must’ve set up such a difficult environment for us not just to test our survival ability, they must also want us to realize the importance of unity and friendship. It’s just a meal. I believe everyone will understand, so let’s not be so calculative.”
Zhao Yuan immediately felt at ease hearing this. “That’s right. Humans rely on helping each other to get to where they are today.”
She was full of self-righteous speech but she never did slow down on eating.
Bai Lin supported her head with her hand and looked at the three people eating with a slight smile. Fan Feng sat awkwardly at the side. He did not eat because he still had some shame.
“You should eat some too.” Bai Lin turned to look at hm. “They have a point. Are you hungry? Go ahead and eat.”
Fan Feng scratched his head and felt that Bai Lin’s words were a little strange. He asked carefully, “You’re not angry?
Bai Lin picked up some crab meat with her chopsticks and put it in her mouth. She enjoyed the fresh and sweet taste as she squinted her eyes and said,
“There’s nothing to be angry about.”
Bai Lin did not say more as she slowly ate her food. Zhou Guang and Yan Ruo wanted to stand up for her, but she stopped them..
