Chapter 3
On the livestream, Li Qing’s furious face filled the screen.
From the moment the stream went live two hours ago, the “Wilderness Ten Days and Nights” page had been sitting at the very top of the video popularity rankings.
Now it had broken past ten million viewers.
This was the show’s real hook: hidden cameras capturing celebrities for ten full days and nights with no staff around-just them, for real.
They’d kept the content under wraps beforehand; even the celebrities’ own agencies had been kept in the dark.
Now the stream chat was exploding.
“Oh my god…”
“Just look at the way Yu Wei holds that cigarette-total chain-smoker.”
“Yu Wei’s an adult, okay? Why can’t she smoke?”
“Heh, Li Qing sure is fluent when it comes to swearing.”
“Think about it. If you got dumped in the wilderness, wouldn’t your first reaction be to curse too?”
“Exactly. This just shows Li Qing is being real.”
“Ahhhhh, Li Qing with a cigarette in his mouth is so hot.”
“But why is Bei Lan this calm?”
“Right? She seems like the calmest one here. Huh, what’s she looking for?”
…
I measured out a section of a fallen tree with my hands, then started hollowing it out with the Swiss Army knife.
Yu Wei eyed me with disdain. “What are you doing?”
“Looking for a place to sleep.”
Li Qing strolled over, clearly up to no good. “With that little strength of yours, want me to help?”
“Get lost.”
Li Qing let out a cold laugh. “You’re still hung up on what happened a year ago? I just copped a feel-was that really such a big deal? Honestly, I’ve been with plenty of women who have way better bodies than you…”
Before he could finish, I brought the knife down and split the log open with a crack.
The Swiss Army knife spun once in my hand, the tip ending up leveled right at him.
Li Qing swallowed.
He didn’t say another word.
The danmaku blew up.
“What did Li Qing just say… just now?”
“Do you guys still remember that hot search from last year about Bei Lan ‘suppressing’ Li Qing?”
“So back then it was actually Li Qing sexually harassing her… I’m gonna be sick.”
“Where are Li Qing’s fans? Weren’t you all screaming just now? Listen to what your idol just said.”
“Say no more. He’s done.”
“Absolutely disgusting.”
“Can you people stop jumping to conclusions so fast? The hidden camera mics aren’t great, you probably misheard what he said…”
“Delusional stans crack me up.”
“If I were Bei Lan, I’d have wrecked him long ago.”
“Bei Lan really took a huge fall for this.”
“Wait! What did I miss? When did Bei Lan dig out such a huge tree hollow…”
“Don’t know if you guys know a certain creator on That Site named Lan Tian, but what Bei Lan’s doing looks really familiar.”
“Where’s Lu Mingshen?”
