Chapter 70: Bullied
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
It was truly inappropriate to continue an action like hugging once it was interrupted. It would be a little abrupt. However, when Bai Lin turned around and looked at Yan Ruo, it made her change her mind immediately.
She did not like letting handsome guys down.
There was a camera in the car. Bai Lin turned her head and looked at Bai Xi with a faint smile, beckoning her with her finger.
Bai Xi leaned over, confused.
Bai Lin suddenly pinched her lips and slowly said despite her shocked gaze, “Bai Xi, I don’t like listening to nonsense from people. You should control yourself these few days and not make me angry.”
After Bai Lin let go, she wiped her fingers with a handkerchief and looked out the window. She watched at the passing scenery as if nothing was important to her.
Bai Xi hid in a corner, her face red with anger.
In spite of it, she knew that Bai Lin was not just saying this for fun, so she did not dare to be presumptuous.
Her lips were pinched until they were red and aching faintly.
She took a deep breath to calm down her anger and embarrassment, sneering in her mind.
When they arrived at the island and Bai Lin was all alone without Yan Ruo and Zhou Guang’s support, would she still be able to win against her?
Four days was enough for her to ruin Bai Lin’s reputation.
San Sheng Island was located at a high latitude and had a dry and cold climate. Although it was also a forest, it felt very different from the hot and humid rainforest.
The camera swept over the snow cladded firs and then panned to the trembling Bai Xi.
Bai Lin had done some research before coming, so she had brought a lot of clothes. She wore an army green cotton-padded jacket, which was wind-resistant and warm.
Bai Xi wanted to look pretty. Such an ugly coat could not show the curves of her body at all, and the color was so unsophisticated, so she did not wear it. She had only brought her own daily, lighter cotton clothes.
As the cold wind blew, Bai Xi exhaled a white puff of air and looked at Bai Lin’s jacket with envy. If she had known earlier, she would have listened to Bai Lin and brought a thick layer of clothing.
The mission was to find the base camp. The production team gave them a map that was very sloppily scribbled and screamed the crew’s style with no other equipment and dropped them here.
Bai Xi followed Bai Lin for a while. It had just snowed in the forest, not a heavy one, but the snow was still up to her ankles. It was cold and wet. She felt that her feet were going numb from the cold, while Bai Lin was wearing warm snow boots and a furry hat, walking very fast.
Bai Xi tripped over a tree root and fell down. This time, her clothes were also soaked from the snow. It was so cold that her teeth clattered and her legs went numb. She could not stand up.
Her eyes were red as she looked at Bai Lin pitifully. “Jiejie, I can’t walk anymore. Can you wait for me?”
Bai Lin turned to look at her. “You’re wearing so little. You’ll feel warmer when you walk.”
Tears fell. Bai Xi bit her lip and stood up with difficulty. She stood in place and silently cried with her head down.
It was as if Bai Lin had bullied her.
When Bai Xi’s fans and audience who did not know better saw this, they all exploded.
[Does Bai Lin even have a heart? Is she just going to watch Xixi freeze? And she isn’t going to help her either?]
[I can’t stand it anymore. My heart aches for Xixi. She has to do a mission with such a cold-blooded person.]
[Why don’t you come back, Xixi? It’s fine if you don’t participate in this variety show. They’re all bullying you. We fans are so heartbroken.]
[Xixi, hold on! Knight Fiery Tom is on his way. He’ll give Bai Lin a good slap in the face when he comes!]
[Wow, I’m amazed. Fiery Tom didn’t name anyone as his idol. Why are you Bai Xi fans starting to spread rumors?]
[Bai Lin reminded Bai Xi to wear more clothes when they were at the resting station but Bai Xi didn’t listen, did she? How can you blame our Lin-jie for not taking a good care of her?]
[I don’t understand either. An adult baby like Bai Xi should just stay at home. Why did she join Traveler? She only knows how to cry when she’s in trouble and drag people down with her. If she isn’t in the same frame as my Lin-jie, who’d want to see her?!]
Back when Bai Xi was younger, she was good at putting herself in a weak position and making her family hate Bai Lin. Now that she had grown up, she was still familiar with using this trick.
The young Bai Lin was unable to defend herself and could only lower her head and let her parents scold her, while Bai Xi stood behind the adults and looked at her sorry sister as she laughed in secret.
It seemed that this trick still worked now.
Bai Xi was inwardly proud of herself as she raised his head and said aggrievedly, “Jiejie, I…”
She could not finish the rest of her sentence.
In front of her was a vast expanse of white snow and tall fir trees. Bai Lin seemed to have vanished on the spot when she was faking her tears, not even a single footprint was left behind.
Bai Xi was stunned..
