Chapter 147 - 147: A Difference of Opinion
Yan Ruo nodded, as if he did not notice her abnormality, and continued to extract the roots of the thorny tree.
Bai Xi was stunned for a moment and wondered if there was a problem with her strategy.
She furrowed her brows. Seeing that Yan Ruo was ignoring her, she could only put her injured finger in her mouth and pitifully tried to stop the bleeding.
[Xixi’s so pitiful. Is Yan Ruo a man?]
[That’s right. Xixi’s a weak girl, but Yan Ruo doesn’t pay attention to her at all. Instead, he asks her to work. The thorns of the thorny tree are so sharp, and our Xixi’s hands are so tender. It must be so painful to be pricked. My heart aches so much.]
[Aiyo, the paid posters still haven’t given up.]
[What’s going on? I’m new here. This Yan Ruo is really not good. That girl is obviously in pain, but he doesn’t even care. He’s a little aloof.]
[What else? It isn’t like Bai Xi hasn’t learned it before. The teacher had especially emphasized not to touch it with bare hands. I think she did it on purpose.]
[She’s so good at pretending to be weak. New viewers, don’t be fooled by her.]
The two of them collected a few roots from the thorny tree. Yan Ruo made up the majority, and the few that Bai Xi cut could almost be ignored.
Yan Ruo used a knife to cut open the roots and forcefully pushed them down with his hands. The green juice dripped into the water bottle.
Yan Ruo was minding his own business, and Bai Xi could not just watch from
the side. She also copied Yan Ruo, wanting to obtain the juice, but her knife cuts were either too deep or too shallow. After spending half a day, she did not collect even half a drop.
Although the wound on her finger was no longer bleeding, it still hurt slightly. In addition, she had deliberately used her injured hand to crush the root, so her wound was dyed green, making it look rather ugly.
Yan Ruo did not seem to notice any of her subtle movements to show that she was not feeling well at all. He collected half a bottle of juice and put it in his bag before he looked at Bai Xi.
Bai Xi squatted in place, as if inadvertently showing him the injury on her finger. Then, as if she had done something bad, she hid her finger.
Yan Ruo was still looking at her.
Yan Ruo’s looks could be considered a top existence in the entertainment industry where handsome men were everywhere. Being stared at by such a person, Bai Xi could not help but blush. She said awkwardly, “Yan Ruo-gege, I
I’m fine.”
Yan Ruo’s expression was calm. “Don’t touch my roots next time.”
There were many roots on the ground that she had cut. A few of them were quite thick and had been wasted.
Bai Xi thought that he was feeling sorry for her and did not want her to work anymore. Her face turned even redder and she said in a gentle voice, “It’s okay.
I only injured my finger. It’s not a big deal.”
She stood up and smiled brightly at Yan Ruo. “Let’s go meet up with our teammates as soon as possible.”
After she finished speaking, she walked ahead of Yan Ruo, leaving him with the determined and strong view of her back.
For a few seconds, Yan Ruo did not say anything. As Bai Xi walked in front, she was secretly happy. She felt that Yan Ruo must have been charmed by her, so she calculated the time and direction of the wind and turned around.
A strong gust of wind suddenly hit her and blew away her deliberately posed posture. She staggered and fell head first into the sand.
A strong person did not need others to help them. Bai Xi slowly and with much difficulty, got up from the ground, but found that Yan Ruo did not have any intention of helping her. He only stood in place, looking at her like he was looking at a stranger.
“You’re going the wrong way,” Yan Ruo said.
Then, without caring about Bai Xi’s reaction, he walked toward the nearest green dot.
Bai Xi was speechless.
[Hahahaha, who’s going to die of laughter? Bai Xi is too funny!]
[Best Actor Yan’s double standard is too much. Previously in the swamp, Bai Lin was accidentally cut by a fish scale. She didn’t say anything, but he took on all the work himself and let Bai Lin rest. Now, Bai Xi’s hinted at him several times, but he doesn’t respond at all.]
[This is what we call selective blindness.]
[This is how it is when facing someone you don’t like. I’ve got to ship Yan Ruo and Bai Lin again today. Hehe, I’m so happy.]
[I really want to give the production team a punch. What kind of rubbish grouping is this? They separated our Yan Ruo and Bai Lin and even made Yan
Ruo endure this drama queen Bai Xi.]
[I wonder if my Lin-jie will show mercy when she sees Yan Ruo.]
[If it were me, I wouldn’t have shot him if I see his face, but Lin-jie might not..]
