Chapter 168: Seasickness
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Xu Zhi unzipped his backpack, revealing its contents. “I’ve brought food, water, medicine, and a sleeping bag.”
Zhou Lian and Lu Shi did the same with their baggage. They had an assortment
of cosmetics, skincare products, clothes, food, and water. To their credit, they had also packed sleeping bags. This meant that out of the trio, only Tian Mei was without a sleeping bag.
A bewildered look washed over Tian Mei’s face. “Why would you bring sleeping bags?” she asked, incredulous.
Zhou Lian snickered. “Well, you don’t have to. You could always sleep while saving small animals.”
“Sleep while saving small animals? What kind of animal would you save by sleeping?” Tian Mei feigned naivety as if she truly had no inkling of the world around her.
“Ah, mosquitoes,” Xu Zhi kindly explained.
As he said that, Xu Zhi felt a surge of relief that he wasn’t on Tian Mei’s team. With her high-maintenance personality, she could turn out to be a liability rather than an asset.
Visibly startled, Tian Mei uttered, “Mosquitoes?”
Tian Mei had brought mosquito repellent—five bottles of it, no less. But she kept this information to herself, calculating that half a bottle per day should last her for the eleven days on the island. She couldn’t have been more wrong. Barely a day into her island life, she realized even five days’ worth would not suffice.
Sensing that the conversation had already sparked viewer discussion, the director signaled for the artists to be ferried to the island. It was a rough ferry ride for Tian Mei, who was so seasick she nearly doubled over the railing.
[Can’t the crew be more humane?] an online comment read. novelbuddy. com
Another retorted, [What do you want them to do? Have the artists swam there? That’s pretty humane, provided they don’t need to save any animals along the way.]
Zhou Lian’s snide comment about “sleeping while saving small animals” had gone viral, setting social media ablaze. The term was being applied to all sorts of scenarios. For instance, if the celebrities swam to the island and got eaten by sharks, they’d be “saving animals,” too.
Tian Mei’s fans were devastated. She had been throwing up incessantly ever since boarding the ferry and had not been able to maintain her on-screen persona, opting to lay low in her room instead. Zhou Lian managed to keep her seasickness at bay, although she did look a bit pale as time passed. Lu Shi, the trust fund baby, was perfectly comfortable, as accustomed as he was to sailing and yacht parties. Xu Zhi was also doing fine. After curiously exploring the ship and having a meal, he retreated to his room, instructing his assistant to somehow send more supplies.
As for Xia Xin and Jing MO, they were the most relaxed of all. Their supplies were in order, and they had nothing to worry about. Come nightfall, the two savored champagne, lounging on deck chairs, feeling the sea breeze against their skin. It was a moment of serene bliss.
[I can see them having children together,] someone commented.
[Me too, and I thought it was just me!]
[Isn’t Xia Xin dating MO Shu? Why is she with Jing MO?]
[Shut up. MO Shu hasn’t admitted it yet.]
[Don’t say that MO Shu didn’t admit it. Just look at these two people. They’re lying on the recliner and there’s a person’s distance between them. Why do you think they’re in a relationship?]
Eventually, the director motioned for the cameramen to discreetly remind them to conserve their energy for the next day’s activities. After all, he was banking on this duo to set the contrast with the other, more mediocre teams. Satisfied, the pair glanced at the time—it was already 9:30 p.m. Rising from their chairs, they retired to their rooms.
By the time everyone woke up the next morning at 7:00 a.m., the ship had already docked. Eager to step onto solid ground, Tian Mei was the first to disembark, leaving her plethora of baggage behind. Once everyone was off the ferry, she timidly approached Lu Shi..
