Chapter 12

All those danmaku comments, and they still couldn’t piece together a single pair of underwear.

“Hss ahh, hss ahh!”

“Ahhhh I want to roll around on his abs.”

“Lu Mingshen doesn’t even take his shirt off when he’s filming. Bei Lan, you hit the jackpot.”

“I seriously want to body-swap with Bei Lan right now!”

“Suddenly I understand how hard it was for ancient emperors to pick concubines…”

“Hahaha isn’t Lu Mingshen just full-on peacocking right now?”

“Lu Mingshen is being way too obvious!”

“Between Lu Mingshen and Fang Cheng’an, who are you going to choose?!”

“Only kids make choices. Adults take them all!”

“I don’t care! My Shen-Lan CP is real.”

“Can’t Bei Lan just be stunning on her own?”

…

Originally, it would’ve taken me a full three days to build a cabin like this by myself.

With Lu Mingshen and Fang Cheng’an helping, it took shape by the second day.

Which meant we had plenty of time to look for food.

This was day five in the wild.

During the day I headed further south and found a few Yansuan Fruits to replenish some salt.

There was also a huge, ripe Ficus Auriculata.

The fruit was a bright orange-red, looking incredibly appetizing.

It was the only dessert we’d had in days.

I headed back with a full load, only to spot a familiar figure on the way.

Yu Wei.

Her clothes were torn, hair a mess, like she was running from something.

She was scrambling through the dense, tangled forest.

When she saw me, it was like she’d seen a lifeline. She grabbed my arm and sobbed:

“Help, please help me. Let me stay with you. I can do anything, I’ll work, just give me a little food, I’m begging you…”

One glance at the purplish marks peeking out from her collar told me exactly what had happened.

Li Qing might not have any wilderness survival experience, but he was at least an adult man.

It wouldn’t be that hard for him to scrape together something to eat.

Yu Wei was different.

If she wanted to cling to Li Qing, she had to pay a price.
