What Li Yan did was actually vicious.
Not only did he take away all the person’s water in the desert, he also left the unconscious person here.
As the sand was blown by the wind, it was flowing every minute. Countless animals had died in the desert, but there was no trace of them—because they
were all buried in the sand.
When Bai Lin arrived, Fan Feng was almost buried in the sand. He was barely breathing. If she did not arrive soon, the production team would have to take him to the hospital for emergency treatment.
Bai Lin performed CPR on him. When she saw that his breathing had returned to normal, she fed him some water.
Looking at his situation, she knew that he had been robbed by his own teammate. She just did not know if it was Song Yun, Li Yan, or Lu Zhi.
Bai Lin dragged Fan Feng onto the vehicle. With the production team’s modification of the desert motorcycle, one bike could carry four people.
The little green dot was still moving. Bai Lin looked at it for a few seconds before she changed direction to look for her teammates.
When Fan Feng woke up, he felt the hot wind brush past his face swiftly. The back of his head ached faintly, and he could not move. Once he did, the world would spin around him.
He turned his head with great effort, holding back the desire to vomit, and looked at the person who had saved him.
Bai Lin was wearing sunglasses and a black headscarf wrapped tightly around her head. She wore a short-sleeved shirt, revealing part of her blindingly fair arms. Her arms were covered with muscles, and she had one hand on the steering wheel while another on the window as she drove with ease.
Fan Feng was instantly at ease.
Bai Lin tilted her head slightly and gave him a nonchalant glance.
“Who was it?”
“Li Yan,” Fan Feng replied.
“Alright,” she answered.
The conversation was extremely short, but Fan Feng passed out with a peace of mind as if he had already given his last words.
The comments section laughed.
[My Lin-jie is so cool. She’s driving the desert motorbike with one hand. Who’s she trying to kill with her coolness? Her tone too, so domineering!]
[Hahaha, I’m sorry, but it’s really funny. I know that Fan Feng is suffering from a concussion, but it isn’t so bad that he’s about to die, right?]
[That’s normal. My Lin-jie is here. Knowing that someone will take revenge for him, he’d die in peace if he’s dying.]
[You above! Fan Feng’s just fainted! He’s not dead, hahaha!]
[Where’s Bai Lin going? It doesn’t seem like she’s looking for Li Yan judging by the map.]
[It looks like she went to find Zhou Guang. I don’t think they should look for Li Yan either. If that scum stays in Lin-jie’s team, who knows what kind of disaster he’ll cause.]
[From the look of it, he should’ve gone looking for Bai Xi? So disgusting!] Bai Xi was very lucky to land in the same place as Yan Ruo.
She had never had the chance to be alone with Yan Ruo, but the heavens had fortunately heard her wish and granted it.
Yan Ruo wore the desert outfit that the production team had specially made for them. It was light and breathable with his arms exposed. Because he was carrying a bag, his muscles were tense, and he looked strong and sexy.
Bai Xi stared at him for a while. They had not interacted after they landed. She kept wanting to say something, but the moment she opened her mouth, the wind and sand filled her mouth.
Finally, the wind was not so strong anymore She had only asked Yan Ruo if he was tired and if he needed help, but he replied coldly, “No need. Talk less and save your energy.”
Hence, she could not say anything.
Yan Ruo probably had feelings for Bai Lin. No matter how much Bai Xi did not want to admit it, it was an undeniable fact.
Therefore, Bai Xi copied Bai Lin and tried to act strong and reliable.
She saw a thorny tree not far away and reached out to tug on the corner of Yan Ruo’s clothes. She pointed. “Over there.”
Yan Ruo nodded.
The thorny tree was one of the rare plants in the desert. It looked dry on the outside, but its roots went downward. If the roots were pulled out of the sand, one could get water from them.
This was what she had learned during the seven days of training.
Yan Ruo went to get one with a thicker branch, and Bai Xi wanted to do the same, reaching out to grab its branch.
They were taught in class that one could not touch it directly. The branches of the thorny tree had thorns, just like its name, and one had to use a knife to cut them.
Bai Xi seemed to be in too much hurry and was pricked.
She let out a cry of surprise, and as expected, it attracted Yan Ruo’s attention.
Yan Ruo looked at her indifferently. “What’s wrong?
Bai Xi quickly hid her bleeding finger behind her back. With an expression that anyone could tell something was wrong, she forced a smile. “It’s nothing. Let’s continue.”
If Li Yan were here, he would definitely not let her continue to work. The others would surround her to check on her condition too. Bai Xi looked at Yan Ruo in anticipation.. What would he do?
