Chapter 130: Chapter 109: Top Student Qi Xingzhou (Two in One)

Ling Bo found a rooster in the grass, an impressively large male, apparently trapped while foraging. When he picked it up, it weighed a good five or six pounds.

Discovering the rooster felt like a dream to Ling Bo, and he couldn’t wait to run back to the campsite with it in his grip.

So far, Ling Bo and the others had been sharing resources, Ling Bo had a pot, and Yuan Wei and the rest had spices, so they swiftly set about slaughtering the chicken.

Jian Tiantian, who had stayed in the tent, came out to help when she heard the commotion.

Feeling a bit guilty for not going out to forage for food, Jian Tiantian eagerly took on the task of cooking.

By the time Huo Miao and the other two returned, Jian Tiantian had already cooked the chicken to a tantalizingly aromatic stage.

The seven people gathered around the pot, using cup lids as bowls and cleaned twigs as chopsticks, too preoccupied to worry about finesse and refinement, as they hurriedly stuffed chicken meat into their mouths. In just a few days, this group of polished white-collar celebrities had turned into a bunch of refugees.

The audience watching on the screen also found themselves at a loss for words.

In contrast, things seemed much more peaceful on Jiang Ning’s end.

That morning in the forest, Jiang Ning had caught both a chicken and a rabbit, so there were no worries over dinner for the time being.

She took the clothes she had changed out of the night before to the seaside and washed them clean with ash and soapberry, then hung them on a dry tree.

In the outdoors, hygiene seemed to be a challenge.

For the past two days, Jiang Ning had been wiping herself down with a wet towel before going to bed every night, not as comforting as a bath, but still reasonably clean.

As Jiang Ning passed by Langyan, she casually tossed a dry log and a few wet twigs onto the fire, and grabbed a handful of green leaves to spread over it. The fire, which had been producing only a whiff of white smoke, suddenly belched dense fumes.

Jiang Ning looked out towards the distant sea, a vast expanse with no sign of rescue, not even a passing boat in sight. Her eyes fell, and her face showed a somber expression.

Sitting around waiting did not seem like a solution.

"Ning Ning," Qi Xingzhou, not known when he had emerged from the tent, spotted Jiang Ning sitting on a rock and his eyes instantly lit up as he walked straight towards her.

When Jiang Ning had come out of the tent, Qi Xingzhou was still asleep, so she had not awoken him.

Now hearing Qi Xingzhou’s voice, Jiang Ning turned her head to look at him.

The young man approaching her was tall and straight, with striking looks. Against his backdrop, the single-person tent behind him seemed almost mini and cute.

[Sob, Jiang Ning’s friend is really unquestionably handsome]

[With his height, what did he eat to grow so tall? He must be over 1.85 meters, right?]

[It’s one thing to be so tall, but to also be this handsome! And not only that, his skin is so fair too!]

Qi Xingzhou came over and crouched dutifully in front of the fire, mimicking Jiang Ning’s posture, like a good child.

Jiang Ning turned her head and poked his solid arm with two fingers, "How did you come over today? I remember the director saying there were two mystery guests at the safe house. After you came, what about the other person?"

Qi Xingzhou listened intently with his ears perked, waiting until Jiang Ning finished before he methodically answered each question, "I walked. He stayed at the safe house."

Jiang Ning: "How long did you walk?"

Qi Xingzhou frowned thoughtfully, speaking slowly, "From night until daytime."

"That long!" exclaimed Jiang Ning.

She had thought it would take only a few hours for Qi Xingzhou to walk by himself, never imagining that he had started the night before!

She looked down, gazing directly at Qi Xingzhou’s feet, "Are your feet okay?"

Qi Xingzhou, who previously loved staying at home, had been brought by her on a mountain hike once, and Ji Shuang had commented it might have been the furthest Qi Xingzhou had ever walked outdoors. Having walked for so long the previous night, his legs must be wrecked!

Before coming on the reality show, Qi Chen forced Qi Xingzhou to watch many communication and interaction programs for people. Qi Xingzhou originally disliked such videos, but Qi Chen provoked him by saying if he didn’t finish them, he wouldn’t be able to interact with Jiang Ning like a normal person. Over time, Jiang Ning would start disliking him.

Because it concerned Jiang Ning, Qi Xingzhou could not be careless. He not only finished the videos Qi Chen shared with him, but also searched online for many other instructional videos, including some variety show clips and film
