Chapter 381: Chapter 381

Although Wei Lejun didn’t say it, Huang Chengzi and Sun Bangyu also guessed that she was definitely blacklisted by Lian Qi, so they didn’t continue with the topic and obediently searched along the riverbank for suitable sticks to build a boat with.

Wei Lejun walked over to Sang Ning, hesitating for a long time before finally saying: "I’m at a loss for words, running into you is such bad luck."

Sang Ning rolled her eyes at her mercilessly: "I can make your luck worse, believe it or not, I’ll kick you into the river with one foot."

Wei Lejun’s face turned cautious, and she quickly jumped a step to the side: "Every time I try to beat you, there’s always some hitch. And this time I’ve even encountered Lian Qi, the hitch of a man, it’s really frustrating!" For more chapters visıt N()velFire.net

Sang Ning had gotten used to Wei Lejun competing with her. Overall, it wasn’t directed at just her; Wei Lejun wanted to compete with everyone stronger than her.

Everyone has some quirks in their personality, and Sang Ning thought Wei Lejun’s were harmless. After all, her desire to win was out in the open, and she wouldn’t do underhanded things behind someone’s back. She was ambitious and made no attempt to hide it—it was quite straightforward.

After losing the unreliable ally Lian Qi, Wei Lejun also joined the girls’ group activities, starting to search for suitable sticks.

Along the riverbank, uniformly thick and long sticks had already been piled into a small hill when the drone finally began broadcasting the second piece of materials information.

"Please note, students, the second batch of materials will be dropped in five minutes."

"This second batch contains a variety of materials and will be randomly airdropped across the jungle. Everyone needs to closely monitor the direction of the drone transporting the materials."

"This delivery will not have any flare signals; it will all depend on everyone’s sense of direction and luck."

"The second batch of materials is also the last to be airdropped, and whether everyone can cross through the jungle will depend entirely on this batch of materials."

"Additionally, a very important point to remind everyone: the first batch of foam board materials lacks a critical adhesive. The adhesive provided by the first batch is not very effective. The key adhesive will also be scattered with the second batch of materials."

"To ensure nothing goes wrong, students who have grabbed the first batch of materials for boat building should quickly join the efforts to seize the second batch and search for the key adhesive."

After listening to the rules broadcast, the four on the riverbank were dumbfounded.

What the hell! Lian Qi has already taken the boat, and now the production team says there’s a lack of critical adhesive, isn’t this just messing with us!

Sang Ning looked forward but couldn’t see the other side of the river.

The jungle they were in was, more accurately, a water forest, with a complex terrain. The river in front of them wasn’t like a normally broad river. It was narrow and winding, and dense trees covered both banks.

From an aerial view, it would be hard to notice that under layers of dense foliage, a small river quietly flowed.

Unable to see the other side of the river, Sang Ning couldn’t tell if Lian Qi managed to cross the river successfully.

But after hearing the broadcast rules, she silently mourned for him for a few seconds.

"It’s definitely Director Qin’s style!" Sang Ning looked toward the river, speaking slowly.

Huang Chengzi chimed in: "What style?"

Sang Ning tilted her head to look at Huang Chengzi: "The inhuman style."

Huang Chengzi’s lips twitched, Sang Ning sure knew how to speak her mind, but she wasn’t wrong!

Qin Jiaxiang, who was watching Sang Ning’s live broadcast section, twitched his eyelids wildly at her words.

Sang Ning didn’t even reflect on herself. She was the one being inhuman first, so he followed suit.

The first batch of materials was intentionally left with a trick—planned as a countermeasure against Sang Ning.

He had long guessed that Sang Ning wouldn’t let the first batch of materials go easily, especially with Huang Chengzi, the strong girl, around. Even if the boys all rush together, they’d have a tough time grabbing things from them.

So the best move was to rig the first batch of materials to make Sang Ning’s crossing of the river less easy.

It turned out, to his surprise, that the first batch of materials ended up in Lian Qi’s hands by accident.

With the materials taken by Lian Qi, not only did Sang Ning not chase him, but she even led the girls to start gathering sticks and vines.

Sang Ning’s plan was evident—they didn’t intend to wait for the program team’s materials to be dropped; they would be self-reliant and build a boat to leave.

Sang Ning’s plan surprised Qin Jiaxiang and even disrupted the original plan of the production team.

Similar to the first batch, the subsequent materials were originally to be airdropped in stages, but with Sang Ning as an unpredictable factor, the production team changed the rules on the spot.

They decided to drop all the remaining materials at once so that there would be more individuals competing with Sang Ning, preventing her from easily gaining a leading position.

If Sang Ning knew Qin Jiaxiang’s true thoughts, she would sincerely tell him: "Director Qin, you’re really something!"

First, they tied her up like a bundle when she landed, and then continued setting various traps for her. She genuinely had no mind to compete for an advantage, all she wanted was to have some good food!

Since Lian Qi had already left and likely reached the riverbank successfully, she was destined to miss out on the big meal, so it no longer mattered what order she crossed the river.

The crucial thing was to quickly leave this cursed place; she didn’t want to spend the night here.

"Damn! Without the key adhesive, could that bastard Lian Qi have sunk?" Wei Lejun looked forward toward the river, her words were harsh, but her face was anxious.

Despite her harsh words, Huang Chengzi and Sun Bangyu sensed that Wei Lejun’s tone was off, almost as if she was genuinely concerned about Lian Qi, right?

"Then he deserves it for stealing your boat!" Huang Chengzi said, noticing Wei Lejun’s expression wasn’t right, she quickly coughed and began to mend what she said, "Oh no, what I mean is the production team’s safety awareness is quite on point. If Lian Qi encounters danger, they definitely won’t leave him to fend for himself."

Even though she was worried about Lian Qi, Wei Lejun still stubbornly denied it: "I just think it’s pathetic, after all, a bastard’s life is still a human life."

Sang Ning secretly glanced at Wei Lejun—girl, you’re just being stubborn!

It’s only regrettable there’s no mirror around, otherwise, Sang Ning would certainly let Wei Lejun take a look at herself. Her current appearance was akin to a stone pining for a husband and gave off an impulse of wanting to jump into the river to find Lian Qi when she couldn’t see him.

With Lian Qi’s situation unclear, no one had the heart to continue building boats; everyone was worried about Lian Qi.

Unlike Wei Lejun, their worries were simply out of concern for their partner.

"Help! Help! Someone save me!"

While everyone was worrying about Lian Qi’s safety, a frantic cry for help suddenly echoed across the winding river.

Upon closer listening, it sounded quite like Lian Qi’s usual voice, only this voice was a bit sharper now.
