【So fast!】
【Yeah! Jiang Ning really knows her stuff! After picking the fruit, she even taught them how to make traps. They caught a wild chicken, and Wei Lan was practically drooling. The cameraman quickly said it was a protected animal and couldn’t be eaten, so they had to let it go. Hilarious!】
【Hahaha, it sounds so lively over there. I’m switching to watch now!】
The viewer count in Huang Wanqing’s live stream dropped sharply.
She was furious. Turning to see that Zhong Hui and Qin Lang hadn’t caught anything either, she couldn’t help but raise her voice, speaking harshly, “What’s wrong with you two? How come you haven’t caught a single one?”
Zhong Hui and Qin Lang were also regretting coming here to catch fish. It was already cold, and the water splashing up while they were in the river had soaked their clothes halfway.
Zhong Hui retorted bluntly, “Miss, we came here with you. You haven’t caught anything yourself. How can you blame us?”
Huang Wanqing was left speechless for a long moment, unable to refute Zhong Hui.
But she refused to admit defeat and could only continue fishing angrily on her own.
Not wanting to speak to the two of them, she kept moving further and further away as she fished.
Why is it so cold!
By now, she was starting to regret coming to this stupid variety show just to annoy Jiang Ning.
If it weren’t for Jiang Ning, she’d still be comfortably at home!
So annoying, so annoying.
The cameraman focused on Zhong Hui and Qin Lang for a while.
When the camera panned back, they realized Huang Wanqing had almost reached the center of the river.
The riverbank might look shallow, but that didn’t mean the center was the same. Mountain rivers are constantly flowing, and many areas have hidden dangerous drop-offs carved out by the current. It wasn’t unheard of for someone to step into a sudden drop and be swept away by the rushing water.
Seeing Huang Wanqing heading toward the dangerous area without any awareness, the cameraman was terrified and shouted desperately to stop her.
“Huang Wanqing! Come back now.”
Just as Huang Wanqing heard the cameraman’s urgent call, she instinctively turned her head to look back while continuing to move forward.
No one expected that, in that split second, Huang Wanqing would step into a sudden drop. With a terrified scream of “Ah!”, she instantly plunged headfirst into the river.
She didn’t know how to swim and could only flail desperately in the water. Even her cries for help were choked out between gulps of water.
Zhong Hui and Qin Lang heard the commotion and immediately paled, rushing into the water without hesitation to save Huang Wanqing.
However, on the opposite bank, closer to Huang Wanqing, someone jumped into the river even faster to rescue her.
Zhong Hui, still on this side of the river, was stunned for a moment when he saw who it was.
It was Jiang Ning.
As soon as Jiang Ning entered the water, she could feel the bone-chilling cold.
But without a moment’s hesitation, she pushed herself toward Huang Wanqing with all her strength, finally managing to pull the nearly drowning Huang Wanqing back from the brink of death.
Huang Wanqing gasped for fresh air on the riverbank, barely escaping the suffocating feeling of near-death.
Although the production team’s safety measures were relatively adequate, and staff quickly threw a rescue lifebuoy attached to a rope toward them, the freezing river water had already drained their energy, leaving their limbs numb.
Jiang Ning was still dragging along Huang Wanqing, who couldn’t swim at all and was essentially dead weight.
With no other choice, she had to first put the lifebuoy on Huang Wanqing, who had completely lost the ability to save herself and couldn’t swim.
But just as she was about to grab the rope tied to the lifebuoy, a powerful surge of water rushed toward her with immense force. |
Jiang Ning’s hand slipped, and she couldn’t hold on firmly. Instantly, she was swept several meters away from the lifebuoy by the impact.
The water seemed alive, violently pulling at Jiang Ning’s body, trying to drag her into the unknown depths.
It was only then that Jiang Ning realized she and Huang Wanqing had already been swept into the river’s turbulent section, with both banks now transformed into towering reed marshes.
For a moment, even the people on the banks who had initially tried to rescue them could no longer wade into the water. They could only watch helplessly as Jiang Ning was mercilessly swept away by the raging river.
Suddenly, a staff member urgently shouted, “Xi Yue!”
This was followed by the sound of a splash as someone jumped into the water.
Several pairs of eyes turned to see Xi Yue leaping into the water without hesitation.
Hearing about the situation, the director, who had rushed over in a hurry, happened to witness this scene.
He was so frightened he nearly fainted on the spot.
Once the director regained his composure, he frantically asked the people present, “What exactly happened?”
Zhong Hui and Qin Lang had assumed this spoiled, willful young lady would stubbornly refuse to admit any responsibility.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the director asked, Huang Wanqing, who had just been pulled out of the water, burst into tears with a loud “Wah!”
Always poised and proper, she now cried uncontrollably, completely disregarding her image.
“Wuwuwu, I didn’t mean to! It’s all my fault! Please, save her quickly, wuwuwuwu!”
