Chapter 18
“Jin Ran must’ve guessed it by luck. I remember that she’s only in her third year of university,” Bai Shao mumbled, “If I had such luck, I’d be able to do it too.”
Jin Hang was relaxed. “It doesn’t matter if it’s a wild guess or not. She’s my daughter. She’ll definitely side with our team.”
Zhao Yuan sprayed another layer of insect repellent. “There are too many mosquitoes here. Let’s go to the supply station and rest as soon as possible.”
After Bai Lin listened to Jin Ran’s stammering explanation of her thought process in solving the question, the admiration in her eyes grew. She put an arm around Jin Ran’s shoulder and patted her. “You solved it pretty well! We’re on the same team from now on, so relax a little.”
Zhou Guang and Yan Ruo’s positions were the same as Bai Lin’s. They were willing to accept whoever Bai Lin was willing to treat well.
Jin Ran had never stayed so close to celebrities who could only be seen through the screen and they were so kind and gentle too. It made her, who was rarely treated like this, a little afraid.
When Bai Lin was not around earlier, she felt like she was walking on eggshells. Now that Bai Lin was sitting beside her, she was like a little bird that had found its home. She subconsciously clung to Bai Lin.
Bai Lin had a kind of magic that made people feel protected, encouraged, and praised when they were by her side. It made people subconsciously want to rely on her.
It felt heartwarming.
“Let’s go and rest.” Bai Lin and Jin Ran held hands as the four of them headed to the supply station. “The dorm’s provided for the first night, so we can get a good night’s sleep and build a house tomorrow.”
Yan Ruo and Zhou Guang sighed side by side. “Xiao Lin is so amazing. Is there anything you can’t do?”
[I mean, yeah. I agree with Best Actor Yan. I was following Bai Lin’s live cam during the day and she climbed up such a tall tree directly. I really wonder if there’s gravity there.]
[There’s also catching the fish. It’s really amazing. She got a fish every stab. Only those who have done fish-spearing know how precise she is.]
[I’m curious how they’re going to build a house. They can only build a small pathetic straw hut in a day. Will it be more comfortable than a tent?]
Bai Lin who was walking in front paused after hearing Yan Ruo. She replied with a smile, “A lot.”
Zhou Guang snorted. “Who buys that?” He then shook his head. “I don’t anyway.”
[I don’t either.]
[ I don’t either. +1]
[Are you guys up there possessed? Bai Lin’s only solved a math problem, picked some fruits, and grilled some fish. I can do it too.]
[That’s right. What’s wrong with everyone? Apart from that math question, everything Bai Lin did was ordinary. It’s just that our Xixi’s doesn’t want to ruin her image as a little fairy, so she didn’t do it herself.]
[Bai Xi’s fans are more or less speechless.]
Upon arrival, Bai Lin saw that Bai Xi’s group was blocking the entrance of the supply station and was arguing with the staff.
“Five points per person?” After a day of hard work, even Lin Shu, who thought of himself as a cultured person, could not help but scowl. “Isn’t this a little too much?”
They could only solve Level C questions, which were only worth one point. They would have to solve 55 questions within one day before they could move into the house.
Moreover, they only had 25 points now, so there must be people who could not get a room.
“Director, it’s our first day on the show and we’re tired. Can’t you make it a little cheaper?” Bai Xi blinked and pursed her lips to ask coyly, “Two points, okay?”
Bai Lin went over and said, “That’s right, director. Everyone’s tired today. The conditions of a rainforest are naturally harder than the desert and grassland. It’s also rather difficult to get points. It’s not appropriate to ask for such a high price when the members haven’t adapted to the environment yet,?is it?”
The desert and the grassland were the locations of the first two seasons. Although the missions were also quite difficult, they did not have as many problem-solving elements as there was this season.
The netizens all agreed.
[If this were a game, I’m going to give it a bad review.]
[It’s been hard on you, mentally and physically. Good job, guys.]
[Bai Lin’s so good at negotiating. She looks much better than Bai Xi who only knows how to act cute and pout.]
[Stop praising one and bringing another one down! Our Xixi is doing this for everyone’s good too!]
The director was also paying attention to the program’s comments in real time. He stroked his chin and thought for a moment. “It can be cheaper but the minimum is three points.”
If three points were required for each person, their group would need 33 points. Even if the price was already lowered, they still did not have enough points.
Three people had to sleep in the tent.
The director did it on purpose. It would only be interesting if there was a fight.
Bai Lin submitted her points and obtained the right to stay inside. Zhou Guang and Yan Ruo were already inside, preparing to rest, while Bai Lin and Jin Ran remained where they were, waiting for something.
Zhao Yuan caught Bai Lin out of the corner of her eyes, and her eyes lit up. “Bai Lin! Come here.”
