After Lin Yueqi became the obvious “leader” of their team, Li Muruo was gradually forgotten.

She rarely spoke, and compared to Lin Yueqi, her presence was almost nonexistent. As the only two women in the team, Li Muruo felt that she was now just an object in the background, which greatly unsettled her. However, in front of the camera, she could only hold it in.

One morning, when Lin Yueqi was asleep, Li Murou opened her eyes and stared at the back of her head for a while.

Then, she took out a bottle from her pocket, unscrewed the cap, and dumped the African insects inside of it on Lin Yueqi.

As they climbed down her hair to her cheeks, she seemed to feel them and slapped her own face, effectively killing them.

Li Murou was startled and quickly closed her eyes. She held her breath and listened for a while. It seemed that Lin Yueqi was still asleep. However, as soon as she breathed a sigh of relief, Lin Yueqi’s palm landed on her face with a resounding clap.

Her sticky palm, covered in the bodies and juices of the dead insects, moved toward Li Muruo’s mouth. “Eat, Tuantuan,” she murmured.

It sounded like she was sleeptalking.

As Lin Yueqi tried to force the insects inside her mouth, Li Muruo angrily slapped her hand away. Tired of dealing with her, she turned around in her sleeping bag and tried to go back to sleep, then all of a sudden, Lin Yueqi kicked her from the side.

It was such a hard kick that Li Muruo almost cried out in pain.

With that, she reached the end of her forbearance. She sat up, rubbing her throbbing waist, and raised a hand to slap her.

However, just then, Lin Yueqi also sat up. Her movements were like a zombie’s, nearly scaring Li Muruo to death.

Lin Yueqi looked at Li Muruo’s raised hand, rubbed her eyes, and asked innocently, “What are you doing, miss? Trying out setting-up exercise for sore muscles?”

Li Murou looked at the idiot woman in front of her, gnashing her teeth.

How could Lu Ting like this kind of woman? Didn’t he find it shameful to have an idiot beside him?

Lin Yueqi yawned. “Guess what? I just had two nightmares. In the first one, I was trying to feed a fattie cake, but she refused to open her mouth. In the second one, I was being stalked by a pervert. I rolled up my sleeves and had a good tussle with him! Felt real good!”

Upon hearing that, Li Murou subconsciously rubbed her waist and hissed, “You kicked me.”

Lin Yueqi was shocked. “Ah? Really? Let me see!”

Without waiting for Li Muruo to agree, Lin Yueqi reached over and pulled up the girl’s shirt. As expected, there was a bruise.

“Wow, it’s really bruised! I’ll rub it for you. Ptooey—”

She spat two mouthfuls of saliva on her palm and smeared it all over Li Murou’s waist.

Li Murou: … I really want to kill this woman.

She pushed her away, frowning, and said, “I need to use the bathroom.”

“Oh, then I won’t accompany you. It’s cold outside.” Lin Yueqi burrowed back into her sleeping bag and pretended to tremble miserably.

When Li Muruo turned around to leave the tent, Lin Yueqi made a face at her.

***

Despite waking up so early, Li Murou didn’t go back to the tent. Instead, she went to clean the rabbit that Leita caught the previous night. She planned to make a roast rabbit.

This time, she couldn’t afford to make any more mistakes. She had to do it before everyone got up. Lin Yueqi was still asleep, and Lu Ting hadn’t left his tent. Everyone was so tired these days, there was no way the two would have time to act all lovey-dovey.

Li Murou went to a nearby river to clean the rabbit. Meanwhile, Lu Ting stepped out of his tent, toiletries in hand.

Nine days had passed since they entered the jungle. In these nine days, Lin Yueqi had eaten a lot of food without doing any real exercise.

Despite how much walking and hunting they’d done, she didn’t lose any weight at all. Therefore, Lu Ting and Lin Yueqi made an appointment to wake up early that morning to exercise.

Lin Yueqi’s weight was now 140lbs/64kg. Although she had made progress, her BMI was still on the high side, so she needed to focus on reducing body fat. It was best to be thin and healthy.

Lu Ting didn’t actually care about whether or not she would be able to return to her former weight. Even if her current figure ended up hindering her career, it was alright because he could support her for her entire life. It was her health that he worried about.

While he was brushing his teeth, he noticed that Li Muruo had also gotten up and was cleaning a rabbit in a river not too far away.

Afterward, he went to Lin Yueqi’s tent and called out her name.

However, the girl in the tent merely closed her eyes and remained unresponsive as to escape from Daddy Lu’s demonic training.

“I’m going in if you don’t get up,” he threatened.
