Chapter 563: Chapter 563: Quite the Confidence
Upon learning the result, the four of them stood frozen on the spot, imdiately feeling various degrees of regret surge in their hearts.
Especially team captain Chen Manman.
She couldn’t help feeling that if she hadn’t been so fearful of Jiang Li and the so-called Team A’s strength, these people would likely have been eliminated by now.
Even if they weren’t eliminated, they would probably be acting according to their faces, after all, their ranking was at least in the lower middle.
Ai Xiaochun was so angry that she stood up, “How can you lie?”
Shang Shuyue only found it funny, “When did we ever say we were Team A? If you aren’t clever enough, don’t try to pin this low-level cap on us, okay?”
“But, but you—”
That they would so brazenly demand their fish!
It was too much!
Luo Xuan also felt that Ai Xiaochun was talking too much, so he quickly pulled on her clothes and pressed her into his embrace.
“Xiaochun might just be too tired and misspoke for a mont, don’t take it to heart.”
While speaking, he looked at his girlfriend in his arms and whispered, “There are drones around, don’t go too far, it’s not good to give people a handle to criticize.”
Ai Xiaochun eventually shut up.
The al that Team J ate next was anything but enjoyable.
The fish had been given away, the work had been done, but the powerful leg they had hoped to cling to turned out to be a slender bamboo pole.
After hastily finishing the remaining food, Chen Manman found an excuse to lead her team away.
Upon returning to their camp, the faces of several people didn’t look very good.
Ai Xiaochun started to complain directly, “Ah Xuan, why did you stop from continuing to speak just now? Aren’t those people just puffing up their faces to look fat? Despite being not as good as us, they act all high and mighty. We sacrificed so many fish for what?”
Luo Xuan sighed, “I was afraid you would get into a conflict with them due to your temper.”
“So what if there’s a conflict? It’s not certain that they can beat us!”
Chen Manman said, “But don’t forget, the camp we chose today is the defensive side, which puts us at a disadvantage.”
Ai Xiaochun fell silent.
Although they could set traps in secret to counter Team Q’s people, if it ca to an actual head-on conflict, they simply couldn’t eliminate the other side.
This was undoubtedly a dead end.
Ai Xiaochun stomped her foot in frustration, “Let’s just spare their lives this ti. Once we switch sides tomorrow, let’s see if they can still laugh.”
“Right now, all we can do is wait and see.”
But this wasn’t entirely bad news; at least they knew that the team opposing them wasn’t as capable as their Team Q, and the Sword of Damocles hanging over their heads was resolved just like that.
That night, the people of Team J managed to sleep peacefully.
But they were forced to get up early.
It wasn’t even dawn yet when noisy music started coming from the nearby Team Q camp, and they were switching tracks every few minutes.
From “Still Loving You” to “Red Sun” and then to “Gangnam Style,” they had to listen to each of these energetic songs in turn.
They were finally about to catch so more sleep when the sound of whistles ca from the other side again.
“One two one, one two one, one two one…”
“Left turn!”
“Jiang Cheng, don’t slack off, start running.”
Ai Xiaochun couldn’t take it anymore, her eyes circled with dark bags as she wrapped in clothes and crawled out of the tent.
Luo Xuan was also forced out of bed.
“What’s wrong with these people, crazy? It’s not even dawn yet, what are they shouting about?! Can’t a person get so sleep!”
Chen Manman and Guo Xing had already been woken up by the noise, and the cold air Ai Xiaochun let in when lifting the tent flap completely drove away their sleepiness.
“It’s really beyond the pale,” Chen Manman said, glancing at her watch, “It’s only six o’clock.”
“I can’t take this anymore, they’re driving us nuts on purpose!”
Ai Xiaochun said as she dressed and walked out with a body full of resentnt, heading straight for the opposite side.
Now, Team Q was lined up running around the lake.
Aside from Jiang Yan and Jiang Cheng, who were languishing at the end of the line, everyone else was bursting with energy and had rosy cheeks.
Seeing this, Ai Xiaochun got even angrier and blocked their path.
“Stop, stop, stop, have you lost your minds? There’s no need for you to not sleep early in the morning and disturb our sleep, right?”
Hearing this tone sharpened with anger, Shang Shuyue was the first to frown.
This woman had never treated them well to begin with, and now that she knew they were the last-ranked team, she dropped all pretense and vented all her bottled-up anger from the island onto them.
But Shang Shuyue had never been one to take things lying down.
With this thought, she forced a smile and stood in front of Ai Xiaochun.
“So what’s got you splashing around here so early in the morning?”
“This is a deserted island, not your ho. Why should we follow your schedule? If you can’t handle it, you’re more than welco to join us for a run. If that’s too much, then just move on. What good does wasting breath here do?”
“With the ti you spent shouting, you might as well have gone back to brush your teeth; I can sll your breath from here. Never mind the lack of manners, but not even keeping up with hygiene.”
Shang Shuyue’s string of pointed remarks was so satisfying that even Jiang Yan cheered her on from the back.
Ai Xiaochun’s face turned even paler with anger, and in the end, she was so choked up she couldn’t get out another word and her eyes reddened.
“You’ve gone too far, just you wait!”
With that, she turned and ran back.
Bai Lu looked at her retreating figure with disdain, “Lili said earlier that if we were stuck on a deserted island too long, the first thing to go wouldn’t be our physical health but our ntal health, I didn’t believe it then, but now I do.”
Yu Li nodded, “From the perspective of traditional Chinese dicine, if people live in a damp and cold environnt for a long ti, coupled with a lack of exercise and poor diet, it can easily lead to a deficiency of qi and an excess of liver fire, which over ti can also affect one’s temper and mood.”
What? Not exercising can make you sick?
Hearing this, Jiang Cheng’s previously lethargic legs suddenly fird up.
No problem, he could run another ten laps!
Bai Lu and the others were already accustod to exercising and quickly completed their morning exercise routine.
Only Jiang Cheng and Jiang Yan trailed behind, still two laps short of finishing.
Jiang Li, however, was already preparing breakfast.
She looked at the huge blackfish they had caught the day before and decided to switch it up.
It really wasn’t good to always eat fish; they were left slling fishy all over.
When she used to live in Marquis Mansion, she had over twenty different dishes to choose from for breakfast alone, and they nearly never repeated the sa al day-to-day.
So on this deserted island, as long as there were conditions, she always tried to make a variety of things in different ways.
Following her, Bai Lu and the others enjoyed a great deal of gourt food, otherwise, they wouldn’t have maintained their weight—in fact, they even gained a bit, all looking rosy and healthy.
With this in mind, Jiang Li dialed He Pingzhang’s number again.
The other side seed like a 24/7 standby machine, no matter whether Jiang Li called in the morning or at night, he always answered imdiately.
This ti was no exception.
