Chapter 169: Age Matters
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Pretending to be in distress, Tian Mei turned her doe eyes toward Lu Shi and said, âLu Shi, I get seasick. Could you help me get my baggage off the ferry?â
Taking pride in his reputation as a considerate manâespecially with cameras rollingâLu Shi offered Tian Mei a gentle smile. He said, âIt would be my pleasure to assist you, Tian Mei.â
After uttering those words, Lu Shi boarded the ferry again to retrieve Tian Meiâs baggage. At the same time, the live-streaming chatbox erupted.
[OMG! I just let out a wolf howl! Lu Shi is too hot!]
[Super hot!]
[Heâs handsome, rich, and thoughtful. Heâs the man of my dreams!] [Dream on, Lu Shi is mine! I want to have his babies!]
[Am I the only one who thinks Tian Mei is being a bit too theatrical?] novelbuddy.c om
[No, youâre not the only one. I think so too.]
[Absolutely, Tian Mei is overdoing it; itâs annoying.]
[Flirting is one thing, but sheâs treating people like manual labor. She brought quite a lot of stuff herself.]
[I bet $10 that by the time Tian Mei reaches the destination, she will have, at most, one suitcase leftâor none.]
As the live chat continued to display mixed opinions about Tian Mei, she remained blissfully unaware. Even some of the crew were rolling their eyes at her, tired of her melodrama.
Lu Shi could only carry two suitcases at a time, and Tian Mei had four. After making two trips, he was starting to get irritated. He began to feel as if he were being reduced to a mere laborer by Tian Mei. Once he finished unloading the baggage, a crew member came over with a map. âHereâs the map for each team. You all have the same one. You need to reach the red dot in the middleâitâs the safe zone where you can rest for the night.â
The maps were distributed among the artists. When Tian Mei received hers, she looked distressed. âLu Shi, Iâm not familiar with survival games, and I donât understand this map.â
Tian Mei could understand, of course, but she didnât want to use her brain. She knew Lu Shi would take care of everything responsibly. Lu Shi glanced at the map and explained, âThere are three routes; we can choose one.â
The director smirked and thought, âThis is exactly what I wanted. I wanted the three groups to take different routes, making the show more interesting.â âHow you choose is up to you,â said the crew member.
âWhy canât we go together?â Tian Mei pouted. âI was hoping we could get to know each other better. Lu Shi even mentioned his next project involves animal caretaking. If we walk together, he can discuss it with you, Big Sister Xia Xin.â
Xia Xin felt even more exasperated, especially when called âbig sisterâ by someone older than her.
âYou got something wrong,â interjected Jing MO, who had been silent till now.
Tian Mei was elated to be addressed by Jing Mo. âReally? You know so much, Jing Mo. What did I say wrong? Iâll correct it immediately!â
âXia Xin is younger than you,â Jing MO said.
Chuckles broke out among the crew. Tian Mei had been a child star and had always called everyone older than her âbig brotherâ or âbig sister.â But in this case, Xia Xin was actually younger.
Tian Mei looked visibly upset. She said, âIâm sorry. Iâm just used to it. You wonât hold it against me, will you, Xia Xin?â
âOf course not,â Xia Xin replied, stealing a glance at Jing Mo.
âJing Moâs straightforwardness was endearing. I was quite drawn to it⊠Drawn?â
A tiny flutter seized Xia Xinâs heart. âWas I attracted to Jing MO?â
Tian Mei bit her lip, eyes moistening, looking forlorn. This roused her supporters in the chat to a frenzy.
[Why is Xia Xin targeting our Tian Mei since yesterday?]
[Seriously, Tian Mei has already given in so much, and sheâs still not satisfied?
Does she want Tian Mei to embarrass herself to be happy?]
[Sheâs too vicious. I think her reputation as a compassionate zookeeper is just for show.]
[Thatâs it, Iâm going to complain to the director. How could he let Xia Xin make life difficult for our Tian Mei?]
[Oh, please, what targeting? Xia Xin simply said âItâs okay,â and you call that targeting? I question your intelligence.]
[Exactly, sheâs been over-the-top since she got here. Itâs like she expects the world to cater to her.]
[Xia Xin is younger than Tian Mei.. Whatâs wrong with stating the facts?]
