Chapter 302: Contrast
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Mo Rao chose to take the main road, but people rarely came to this mountain, so even the main road was overgrown with weeds and could barely be walked.
Zhu Ye followed behind her. The others had already separated.
Zhu Ye followed behind Mo Rao because she was a delicate girl. He was a little afraid that Mo Rao would be injured or get taken advantage of. Although there was a cameraman following her, he was still worried. It was still early, so he would accompany her if he could.
However, his actions were immediately seen through by the netizens.
“Is Zhu Ye deliberately following behind Mo Rao?”
“His motives are too obvious. He’s like a knight who silently protects the princes. How romantic.”
“Previously, there were rumors about him and Mo Rao, but I didn’t believe it…”
“Are you all idiots? Why do you guys associate everything with romance?”
Mo Rao couldn’t see the comments, but she felt that Zhu Ye was deliberately following her and stopped in her tracks. There was already a layer of sweat on her fair face. She wiped her forehead and asked, “Zhu Ye, aren’t you going to look elsewhere?”
“Yes, I was planning to change my path here!” Zhu Ye was clearly a little embarrassed by Mo Rao’s question and quickly walked towards a small path on the right.
As Mo Rao stared at his back, she shook her head with a smile. Of course she knew that Zhu Ye wanted to protect her.
However, this show wasn’t a place for her to act high-maintenance. If she was afraid of hardship, she wouldn’t have come. In the two years after she divorced Fu Ying, she also participated in some wilderness hiking overseas. She had a certain level of survival skills, but not much. Those survival skills would be perfect for the show.
She found a thick branch by the side of the road to pave the way. The higher she went, the blurrier the path became. She was almost enshrouded by all kinds of grass. She could use a branch to push aside the grass and at the same time, she could test the ground to prevent herself from falling into pits.
To ward off snakes, she could use branches to slap the grass and scare the snakes away. Otherwise, she would be doomed if she stepped on a snake.
After climbing halfway up the mountain, Mo Rao realized that the terrain was flat and there was flat ground. Beside it, there was a stream. The stream was very shallow and many stones were exposed.
It would be nice to set up camp nearby, Mo Rao thought.
She looked around and decided to search for the whereabouts of the tent nearby. If she couldn’t find it within two hours, she would return and collect some simple materials from the production team to set up camp.
If she could find it, she wouldn’t have to worry tonight.
Mo Rao looked around with the branch, but she didn’t find the tent. She looked at her watch, which was a timer given to everyone by the production team to prevent them from losing their sense of time.
It had been almost two hours. Mo Rao didn’t waste any time and immediately returned.
Suddenly, she heard a sound coming from the grass beside her. She looked closely and saw a gray rabbit jumping in the grass. It looked quite fat.
She knew what to eat for dinner! Mo Rao’s eyes lit up. She immediately picked up the branch in her hand and chased after the rabbit.
The rabbit was quite fast and Mo Rao almost lost it several times. She wiped her sweat as she stared at the motionless rabbit not far away. She gritted her teeth, raised the branch, and stabbed it!
“F*ck, is she that fierce?”
“She looks so gentle and fragile, but she’s so aggressive when hunting a little rabbit…”
“Rabbits are so cute. How can she kill a rabbit?”
“I’m impressed. I thought she would set it free.”
The netizens were stunned by Mo Rao’s swiftness. The branch was a little sharp and pierced the wild rabbit until it bled.
Mo Rao clapped her hands and went forward happily to pick up the rabbit, but she missed her footing and fell into a hole about a meter deep.
Her butt hurt from the fall. She was so focused on catching the rabbit that she forgot to watch her feet.
Just as she got up and was about to leave, she suddenly realized that there was a package in the cave. It was quite big and there was a red bow stuck to it. There was a line of words on the package: Tent Gift Bag.
She was this lucky? Mo Rao was overjoyed. She immediately raised the bag and threw it over the hole. She climbed up nimbly with the rabbit in one hand and the tent in the other and walked towards the stream she had just seen.
On the other side, Qi Tuo had chosen a relatively empty place in the forest and was using the materials given by the production team to build a bamboo residence. It seemed like he had no intention of finding the gift bag.
Zhu Ye chose a cave that looked quite safe.
Tao Hai and Song Shen traveled together. The two of them also found a cave, but it was smaller and more hidden than Zhu Ye’s.
