BXBX NOVEL Chapter 21
After that, she stopped paying attention to their reactions. Instead, she carried a bundle of bamboos that she had just cut and walked deeper into the dense forest.
After hearing Bai Lin’s words, Jiang Han refused it when Zhao Yuan requested to use more Coral Mushrooms.
“Xiao Zhao, don’t be so stubborn. You’re suffering. I can tell that your skin is much worse than before and you have a lot of pimples now. Even if you don’t care about yourself, you should think about Bai Xi,” Jiang Han said patiently, “She relies on her face for a living.”
Zhao Yuan was a little unsettled.
What did she mean by relying on her face to make a living? Her daughter was outstanding in every aspect, and her beauty was only one of her strengths. Her fans definitely liked her talent too.
Despite that, when it came to Bai Xi’s face, Zhao Yuan no longer insisted on arguing and sped up the speed of cutting the bamboos.
Bai Xi was catching fish.
The production team had provided instructions to make the tools and her group had made three spears in total. Fan Feng, Bai Xi, and Lin Sen went to the stream and busied for a long time… only to get five fish.
Yet Bai Xi did not manage to catch a single one.
Bai Xi felt like her waist was about to break. Her face was numb and itchy, and small rashes had appeared on the left side of her face that she dared not turn that half of her face to the camera.
“Xiao Xi, why don’t you take a break first?” Fan Feng asked, trying to please her.
Bai Xi wiped the sweat from her forehead and smiled gently. “No, I haven’t caught a single fish yet.”
Lin Sen stared at the fish swimming in the stream intently. When he saw it with precision, he jabbed the spear—but he did not manage to poke anything.
His good upbringing did not allow him to lose his temper, but the weather was hot and the area where the Coral Mushroom juice had been applied was annoyingly itchy. Once he scratched himself, it left a red mark.
He threw the spear on the shore and squatted down to wash off the juice with water, feeling much more refreshed after that.
“The Coral Mushrooms can’t be used anymore.” He got up and looked at Bai Xi. “Catch some more fish to redeem some sunscreen.”
Bai Xi bit her lower lip and lowered her eyes. “Sorry, I didn’t know that it was poisonous.”
Lin Sen was rather speechless, but he could not say anything more with how Bai Xi reacted. He said, “It’s already happened. We have to find a way to solve it. The two of us will stay here. You can go and help cut the bamboos.”
[What does Lin Sen mean by this? Is he despising Bai Xi? Xixi has already apologized and it’s not her fault that she couldn’t catch any fish. Why is he still so aggressive?]
[A hundred Bai Xi fans can’t make up even a complete brain. When Bai Lin said that the Coral Mushrooms were poisonous, I remember Bai Xi was there, right? She even deliberately looked at Bai Lin after hearing what she said. This is a mistake she knows!]
[I don’t think Young Master Lin did anything wrong this time. Which rich family knows how to catch fish? It’s the first time for all of them. Bai Xi didn’t get a single fish and she’s useless here. It’s better for her to go and build a house.]
Bai Xi quickly looked up at Lin Sen. Just as she was about to say something, she heard a whooshing sound before a bird fell into the water.
One bird was worth ten points!
Bai Xi was overjoyed and pointed at the bird not far away. “Look! There’s a bird there. Let’s go pick it up! It’ll be washed away by the water in a moment.”
Bai Xi grabbed the bird and pulled out the arrow from its body. The bird was not completely dead and was twitching in her hand. She only had points in her mind and did not care about the life and death of a mere bird. However, she still showed a pitiful expression and sighed. She turned to look at Lin Sen. “Let’s go and get the points.”
“Is that yours? Do you just take it?” Bai Lin walked out of the forest with her bow. She appeared in front of the three of them and said lazily, “I’ve carved a mark on the arrow. There’s a cross at the end of it.”
Bai Xi did not move for a long time. Lin Sen walked up and took the arrow from her. There was indeed a cross mark at the end of the arrow.
“It was really Bai Lin who shot it down.” Lin Sen was a little disappointed. As expected, there was no free lunch in the world. “Bai Xi, return it to Bai Lin.”
Bai Xi held the bird and lowered her head, not saying anything.
After a few seconds, Fan Feng heard a soft sobbing sound.
He hurriedly went over. Bai Xi’s eyes were closed as fat drops of tears fell.
“What’s wrong, Xiao Xi?” Seeing the rashes on Bai Xi’s face, he unnaturally looked away and comforted her in a slightly stiff tone, “Xiao Xi, don’t cry. I get sad when you cry.”
Bai Xi was heaving as she cried. “I’m really useless… Jiejie can fish and catch birds, but I don’t know anything. I only cause troubles for everyone.”
