Chapter 457: Chapter 457 “Back Against the Wall
Five minutes later, he stared at Yu Li with his twitching mouth corner.
“Wha—what, how did I end up like this?”
Yu Li pursed his lips and said, “I forgot to tell you, a side effect of the Array is facial paralysis, but don’t worry, it will go away after an hour.”
Jiang Yan: !
Damn!
He was going to thrash this kid!
Saying that, Jiang Yan got up in a rage and picked up a stone beside him to furiously chase after Yu Li.
But he was still suffering from facial paralysis, intermittently twitching one side of his cheek and drooling uncontrollably.
The scene looked like a lunatic just out of an asylum chasing innocent passersby.
Shang Shuyue couldn’t bear to watch anymore.
Why on earth did she like this guy in high school?!
[Hahahaha…I can’t stop laughing.]
[Damn, my cheeks hurt from laughing.]
[Never trust everything Dean Yu says.]
[I’m dying of laughter, hahaha, Jiang Yan really stands out.]
[These guys are so funny, much more interesting than the other groups.]
…
In the cargo ship’s hall, Zhou Xu skillfully opened his computer to watch the “Wilderness Survival” live stream.
Soon, many people were drawn to this novel show and gathered around.
Seeing more and more people of different races around him, Zhou Xu grandly waved his hand, blacked out the hall’s big screen, and cast the live stream on it, even providing a live English translation.
Within ten minutes, the hall was packed.
Hundreds of people were focusing intently on the screen, conversing fluently in English.
“Hua Country’s TV is really interesting, they even have this kind of reality show.”
“These people are so capable? They can survive on a deserted island for so long.”
“I like this Jiang Li, she’s so beautiful.”
“Yes, I also like her, so pretty and she has an Eastern charm. I’m going to look for a wife like her.”
“…..”
Listening to the surrounding praises, Zhou Xu felt very proud. In the heat of the mont, he blurted out, “You guys have no chance, the person on the screen is my sister-in-law.”
A Caucasian laughed below, “Mr. Zhou, you must be joking. Miss Jiang is clearly a celebrity, how could she be your sister-in-law?”
Zhou Xu got energized and imdiately ran to point at Jiang Li’s wrist on the screen.
“The Buddha Beads on her wrist were given by my elder brother.”
Sure enough, the next second Jiang Li fiddling with her watch revealed the Buddha Beads.
Everyone was astonished.
“It’s true!”
“My goodness, your brother is so lucky.”
“It’s a pity, all the good ones are already taken.”
Listening to these flattering remarks, Zhou Xu’s vanity soared to unprecedented levels and he boldly declared,
“With here, you guys can just enjoy the live stream!”
The crowd cheered, but soon another Black person raised his hand.
“Mr. Zhou, you said Miss Jiang is your sister-in-law, you must be very familiar with her then.”
Zhou Xu looked elusive for a mont, “Well, of course.”
He had once passionately co-hosted a livestream for hours with that charlatan, that should count as knowing her well.
“Do you know what Miss Jiang is planning here?” the Black person pointed to the big screen.
The scene being played was Jiang Li selling all her gear for five hundred points.
Zhou Xu sat down on a stool, stretched his legs, and said, “Probably my sister-in-law wants to gamble once, there’s a saying in our Hua Country that can explain it, it’s called ‘a battle with one’s back to the river.'”
The crowd imdiately burst into admiring exclamations.
However, just as Zhou Xu was basking in pride, Jiang Li turned her head and spent all five hundred points, plumting to last place in the rankings.
Zhou Xu couldn’t contain his frustration.
How could he know what this mad fortune-teller was up to?
That was five hundred points, five hundred points!
And they were exchanged for a pile of useless things?!
Even those junk she sent to the crew were better!
Zhou Xu sighed deeply, frustrated, and was wracking his brain on how to nd the situation when suddenly, a cold voice ca from behind—
“What are you doing?”
Zhou Xu instinctively stiffened, then turned around with a forced smile.
“Boss…, you, you listen to my explanation…”
Zhao Lang stared emotionlessly at him and the big screen behind them, while Pei Ye beside him had an expression that read, “What are you doing to yourself again?”
Nearly everyone there recognized Zhao Lang.
His outstanding appearance and top-notch deanor were unforgettable, not to ntion that he had rented the entire fifth floor of the ship as soon as he boarded.
He must be a very powerful tycoon!
With this thought, the Caucasian man standing in front quickly stood up, tried to smooth things over for Zhou Xu, “Hello Mr. Zhao, Mr. Zhou was just showing us your wife’s show, your wife is very beautiful and capable, you’re very lucky.”
Instantly, Zhao Lang’s expression softened, and a nearly imperceptible smile appeared on his lips as he warmly shook hands with the Caucasian.
“Is that so? You seem to have good taste.”
Zhou Xu: “…”
Boss, you definitely weren’t this kind to just a mont ago!
He was about to voice his protest when a sudden loud boom exploded in front of the cargo ship, followed by severe shaking and a piercing alarm sound.
The hall instantly erupted into chaos, with people running and shouting all around.
Pei Ye reacted quickly and imdiately flashed back to check the situation, then returned to protect Zhao Lang.
“Young master, there are three warships outside.”
Their suspicion was confird.
The ship was passing through a location where the political situation was unstable, with two governnts continually at war. They hadn’t expected it to erupt at this mont.
Zhao Lang knitted his brows, glanced at the big screen, and made a decision.
“The sea is not safe, we will head to shore.”
Zhou Xu fell silent.
It seed they truly were about to face a do-or-die battle.
…
…
Dragon Ridge Island.
Jiang Li’s actions also shocked the guests present.
It even caught the attention of Team A.
Ji Yanbai stared at the leaderboard with Jiang Li’s na, his expression complex.
What was the background of this woman who had accumulated over five hundred points in just one night?
Had she single-handedly wiped out a whole team?
However, just as he was confused, Jiang Li’s na card trembled once more, her points instantly reset to zero, and her rank plumted to the last place.
At the sa ti, several notifications appeared on the screen—
[Notification, Guest: [Jiang Li] spent 100 points to exchange for a gaming console]
[Notification, Guest: [Jiang Li] spent 50 points to exchange for a silver needle]
[Notification, Guest: [Jiang Li] spent 150 points exchanging for three sets of n’s clothing]
[Notification, Guest: [Jiang Li] spent 20 points exchanging for two bottles of sunscreen]
[…..]
Watching the stream of notifications, Ji Yanbai’s face relaxed.
It’s okay now.
Turned out she’s just crazy.
