Chapter 453: Chapter 453: Secretly in Love with Jiang Yan
On the cruise ship, Zheng Xun walked over with a mournful expression on his face.
“Not Jiang Li, does your team really have to take this bath?”
“Of course,” Jiang Li said. “Director Zheng, you can’t be so petty.”
Zheng Xun: “….”
Gritting his teeth, he said, “This isn’t free, it costs 20 points, and as far as I know, you don’t have any points left now!”
Jiang Li was nonchalant. “Who says we don’t have any points left?”
As she spoke, she took her backpack off her back and threw it in front of Zheng Xun.
“Here, I want to exchange all this for points.”
Zheng Xun suspiciously walked over and opened the backpack, only to go dark before his eyes when he saw the contents.
That backpack was like a poor man’s treasure chest, with wooden chopsticks, a stone axe, a rope broken into two pieces, thumbtacks sared with so unknown substance…
It had everything, but not a single item was undamaged.
Zheng Xun was furious. “Jiang Li, do you think my place is a trash station?!”
She brought all sorts of stuff to him!
Yet Jiang Li was unapologetic. “Director Zheng, you never specified what items could be exchanged for points at the beginning. Given the limited conditions on the deserted island, this is all we could co up with. So, are you going to break the rules?”
Zheng Xun glanced at the cara beside him and, left with no choice, had to swallow his anger.
Then, pointing at a staffer with an irritated air, he said, “You, co and count this.”
The staffer walked over with the utmost respect and, in five minutes, handed a form to Zheng Xun.
“Director, no more and no less, exactly 20 points.”
Zheng Xun: “….”
[HAHAHA I’m dying of laughter, Sister Li really knows how to recycle waste.]
[I’m laughing so hard. I’ve only seen King Zheng give the guests tough challenges, it’s the first ti I’ve seen a guest make King Zheng look so pissed.]
[King Zheng’s face is black with anger, hahaha.]
[This is hilarious, now he really looks like a trash collector.]
[Zheng Xun: Jiang Li, having you is my blessing.]
In just a few minutes, the term “garbage collecting” on the Wilderness Survival show shot up to the hot search.
The environntal sanitation organization imdiately took advantage of the trending topic and issued a long declaration of environntal protection, even specifically comnding Jiang Li’s eco-friendly act of waste utilization.
Suddenly, even more people flooded into the live broadcast.
Zheng Xun’s face looked even uglier.
Jiang Li smiled. “Director Zheng, we’re so familiar with each other now, let’s skip the formalities. You don’t need to credit the 20 points to my account, just exchange them directly. Also, these items I gave you could actually be repaired and sold to the guests.”
Zheng Xun’s eyes lit up in an instant.
Right, why hadn’t he thought of that?!
If the tornt Jiang Li brought him couldn’t be returned, then taking revenge on others would be just as good.
[6.]
[Holy crap, Sister Li, that’s way too cruel.]
[HAHAHA I never thought I could laugh like this watching a Wilderness Survival show.]
Half an hour later, Shang Shaojing looked at the pair of chopsticks he had bought for ten points, which looked rough and seed to be whittled from twigs, and fell into silence.
…
…
Shang Shuyue ca down from the cruise ship after having taken a lovely bath.
Not only that, she had also changed into a set of clean and tidy clothes, looking utterly refreshed.
Seeing Jiang Li waiting for her on the shore, a trace of guilt finally appeared on Shang Shuyue’s face.
She carefully reviewed her own behavior, then, gritting her teeth, she approached.
“Jiang Li––”
Jiang Li looked up at her, “Finished washing? Let’s go.”
“Wait.” Shang Shuyue hesitated to speak, “That…”
“What’s wrong?”
“I feel like you…you’ve changed a lot,” she said seriously, “completely different from the Jiang Li I rember.”
Back in high school, Jiang Li was selfish and domineering, the quintessential little princess who acted as if the world revolved around her. But now, standing before her, Jiang Li seed gentle, resolute, and serene, like a pool of spring water, invisibly nourishing everyone who ca near her.
Jiang Li t her gaze and said, “When soone wants to break through their difficulties, the best thod is to change; not to change others, but to change oneself. No one stays the sa forever, so it’s normal for to be different from before.”
Shang Shuyue was even more surprised.
Since when could the girl who used to fail her Chinese tests speak such words?
“Even though you have changed a lot, I still hate you, but I still have to thank you for today,” Shang Shuyue said with her arms crossed. “After all, our past grudges can’t be washed away with a single bath.”
“Suit yourself.” Jiang Li was unexpectedly calm as she turned and headed into the jungle.
Behind her, Shang Shuyue fell into doubt.
“Really, you don’t care just like that?”
If anyone had said such things to Jiang Li in high school, she would have been livid enough to make them kneel and kowtow to her without hesitation.
And now she’s this indifferent?!
“Hating or liking soone is your right. Have I finished reading all the books or made enough money that I have free ti to interfere with others’ preferences?” Jiang Li said indifferently.
[Sister Li, what a profound truth!]
[Master Jiang, I’ve had an epiphany.]
[Jiang Li: Refuse PUA, refuse internal strife, be a happy woman.]
[I can’t stand it. When can I have a heart as calm as Sister Li’s?]
Shang Shuyue, following behind, beca utterly conflicted.
Just as the barrage said, instead of provoking any emotional turbulence in Jiang Li, it was she who began to doubt herself.
And Jiang Li just quietly led the way from start to finish.
Half an hour later, the two successfully returned to the campsite.
Seeing the person following Jiang Li, Jiang Yan, who was packing up, stared wide-eyed in astonishnt.
“Holy shit, Jiang Li, where did you pick up a beauty?”
Jiang Li: “…..”
Shang Shuyue: “…..”
Annoyed and embarrassed, she clenched her fists, “I’m Shang Shuyue!”
Jiang Yan: ????
He walked up incredulously and circled Shang Shuyue several tis.
“What do you an you’re the sa person? That crazy woman from before? Did you get plastic surgery?”
[Ha ha ha ha, Young Master, can you please stop talking?]
[How on earth does Jiang Yan charm so many girls who like him with that mouth?]
[Is there a possibility… that I’m just masochistic?]
Shang Shuyue suppressed the urge to roll her eyes and gave a “friendly” smile before entering the tent.
Yu Li sensed sothing off in the air and casually approached Jiang Li,
“Why do I feel like there’s sothing weird about this Shang Shuyue?”
Jiang Li watched Shang Shuyue’s retreating figure and nodded in agreent with a “hmm.”
“Probably because she had a crush on Jiang Yan back in high school.”
Yu Li: ????
Then, he turned to look at Jiang Yan, who was lying by the creek, attempting to scoop up so water only to tumble in.
This…
How could a person from Hua University, endowed with both looks and brains, ever like soone like that?
