Chapter 216: Chapter 150 The Production Team is Here (Extra for Votes)_2

Before, he always looked at Jiang Ning with such contempt and disdain!

A village girl who grew up in the countryside!

What right does she have!

Mu Mingxuan felt a surge of indignation in his heart.

And how did Jiang Ning know about his near-drowning incident yesterday?

Could it be that Miaomiao sought help from Yuan Wei and the others yesterday, and Jiang Ning was also there?

Mu Mingxuan’s face twitched, his tone filled with barely suppressed anger, "Jiang Ning, you truly have a wicked heart!"

[Huh? Assessment complete, Mu Mingxuan is blind]

[Jiang Ning wicked? If Jiang Ning really was wicked, she wouldn’t have just beat you up on the beach at the beginning; she would have kicked you headfirst into the ocean. If she was wicked, she wouldn’t have sold any food to you on the way to the safe house, and you all would have starved to death! If she was wicked, you would have died in the river yesterday! Pfft!]

Jiang Ning’s eyes flashed sharply, about to speak up when a shadow rose in front of her. Qi Xingzhou stepped forward with a long stride, positioning himself between Mu Mingxuan and Jiang Ning.

For some reason, he didn’t like this man talking to Jiang Ning.

Qi Xingzhou’s dark pupils stared at Mu Mingxuan.

Standing half a head taller than Mu Mingxuan, Qi Xingzhou silently positioned himself in front of Mu Mingxuan, not only securely protecting Jiang Ning behind him but also imposing a strong sense of oppression on Mu Mingxuan.

Though his handsome face bore no expression, it seemed as though it was hinting a warning, ’Dare to speak ill of Jiang Ning again and see what happens.’

Mu Mingxuan wisely shut up.

[When compared like this, Mu Mingxuan looks so timid next to the cool guy, totally lacking a man’s spirit, pfft!]

[That’s right! I hoist the banner for cool guy Jiang Jiang!]

Seeing the atmosphere becoming increasingly tense, Ling Bo stepped forward to mediate, "Jiang Ning, Young Master Mu didn’t mean it like that... We know you want to build a boat to leave, so we specially came to see if there’s anything we can help with."

"Exactly, let bygones be bygones..." Yuan Wei also stepped forward and said, "Jiang Ning, look at all this wood on the ground. It would be so tiring for just a few of you to carry it. Why not let us help you with it?"

"No thanks, not needed," Jiang Ning bluntly refused. She didn’t like to cooperate with people she found disagreeable.

Yuan Wei and the others anticipated that Jiang Ning might refuse, but they didn’t expect her to do so this decisively, leaving them no opportunity to persuade or insist.

Mu Mingxuan, hearing Jiang Ning’s unequivocal refusal, clenched his fists as well, feeling quite displeased inside.

He took a few steps back, his gaze landing on the coarse hemp rope on the ground, and a sudden idea formed in Mu Mingxuan’s mind.

He moved back to join Yuan Wei and the others, turning to whisper to the three behind him, "Do any of you have a lighter?"

"I do... what for?" Lin Qi took out a lighter from his pocket.

"That’s all I need," Mu Mingxuan took the lighter, a smug expression crossing his face; he turned his head once more to look at Jiang Ning, who was preparing to lift the tree and stepped on the hemp rope on the ground and said, "Jiang Ning, I’ll give you one last chance, do you agree to cooperate with us or not?"

Jiang Ning slowly put down what she was holding, her gaze falling on Mu Mingxuan, waiting for his bargaining chip.

Mu Mingxuan did not disappoint, saying, "You’re planning to make a raft, right? Tying together a raft isn’t a matter of one or two days. Believe it or not, I’ll come tonight and set it all on fire."

Mu Mingxuan’s face revealed a deranged look, as if to say that if Jiang Ning didn’t agree, then no one would think of leaving the island.

[???]

[Could it get any more disgusting?]

[Why don’t they try to leave the island by following Jiang Ning’s example, take a chainsaw and cut the trees themselves! They won’t even copy the homework that’s laid out in front of them!]

[Heh, he’s not looking to copy homework, they clearly know they can’t handle the hardship of cutting trees, so they prefer to reap the benefits without the work!]

Jiang Ning’s eyes slightly narrowed, "I think you’re asking for death!"

"Come on!" Mu Mingxuan taunted, "If you have the guts, kill us all!"

He didn’t believe Jiang Ning, no matter how crazy, would really kill someone in front of so many people!

Anyway, since Jiang Ning didn’t want to take him away, then no one should think about leaving this island!

Jiang Ning let out a cold huff, "Let me see if you really have the backbone you claim!"

She bent down to pick up a rope from the ground and yanked fiercely, causing Mu Mingxuan, who was standing on the rope, to fall straight onto the ground.

Jiang Ning stepped forward, showing no mercy as she beat him up thoroughly.

The entire forest was filled with Mu Mingxuan’s screams and pleas for mercy.

Huo Miao and Yuan Wei stood trepidatiously nearby, not daring to step forward and even retreating several meters in fear, lest they become collateral damage in this one-sided beatdown.

Jiang Ning, with a rope in hand, tied Mu Mingxuan into a zongzi-like figure, swiftly knotting the rope around him, her calm voice carrying a hint of coldness: "Mu Mingxuan, do you believe I would really hang you in this forest?"

Mu Mingxuan was shocked, "You, you wouldn’t dare!"

Jiang Ning tilted her head, eyeing the trees nearby, actually contemplating the possibility of hanging him from a tree: "Why wouldn’t I? You were supposed to die yesterday anyway."

When Jiang Ning spoke these words, she didn’t sound like she was joking at all.

Whether it was the other guests standing beside or the audience in the live broadcast, everyone felt their hearts suspended with anxiety, fearing that Jiang Ning might hang Mu Mingxuan from a tree in the next second.

Among all people, only Qi Xingzhou was not afraid.

Not only was he not afraid, but he also took a step forward, standing right in front of Jiang Ning as if worried she might not notice him, his eyes shining brightly with expectation, as if to say: I’m very strong, just choose the tree, and I’ll help you hang him.

Other guests: "..."

Live audience: "..."

It’s like a poison.

No one noticed that on the endless ocean, a familiar yacht began to appear, rapidly approaching the area where the guests were.

It wasn’t until the yacht drew closer that Qi Xingzhou seemed to pick up on something, lifting his gaze towards the sea ahead.

"Ning Ning."

Qi Xingzhou spoke up, alerting Jiang Ning.

Jiang Ning turned her head to look.

On the horizon, the silhouette of the yacht was becoming increasingly distinct.

Jian Tiantian cried out loudly, "Ahhh!!! Am I dreaming!!!"

Jiang Ning let go of Mu Mingxuan, who was tied up like a zongzi, with some regret.

As expected, he had a tough life, avoiding disaster once again.

[Damn production team, you could’ve come at any other time, but you had to arrive right now!]

[tui! Can we get rid of the production team? I was just getting to the good part!]

Production team: "..."

Who was the one rushing them to come out earlier!
